Foc i Oli is a small and unassuming venue, but just wait until you taste their burgers – so good they’ll give you goosebumps! (Or whatever the beef-based equivalent is… but not cowpox. You don’t want cowpox).<\/span>The owners are devoted to their craft, manning the bar and grill with dedication, carefully monitoring the quality of their products and service. They’re living proof that fast food doesn’t neessarily mean bad food: the burgers at Foc i Oli are gourmet creations, made with love and imagination, using fresh ingredients.<\/span><\/p>\n We’re having a hard time picking our favourite here, but you won’t go far wrong with the “Especial”!<\/span><\/p>\n The range of burgers on offer is fairly traditional, but you still get a flavour explosion with every bite! The sandwiches are perfectly-sized – not too big, not too small – and served with fluffy, crispy chips.<\/span><\/p>\n When?<\/strong> Lunch: Monday – Saturday, 1pm – 4pm; Dinner: Monday – Friday, 7pm – 11pm This immensely popular, cosmpolitan burger joint is known for its relaxed atmosphere and DIY approach. Make up your own order by ticking boxes on a form, then hand it over at the till.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Here’s where it gets complicated: there are 14 different types of burger on offer! We’ve tried them all (that’s dedication for you), and we’re pleased to say that they’re all very different. They’re also enormous and tend to go everywhere when you bite into them – but isn’t that part of the burger experience? <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n \nGood luck finishing your burger!\n<\/p>\n When?<\/strong> Sunday – Thursday, 12.30pm – midnight; Friday and Saturday, 12.30pm – 1am \nGoiko is the brainchild of a doctor, who decided, one fine day, to swap his stethoscope for a chef’s apron. Not your standard career progression – and not your standard burgers, either!<\/p>\n Aita Andoni launched his first burger restaurant in Madrid in 2013, before bringing the concept to two different locations in Barcelona. For Andoni, consistency is key: the last burger off the grill in the evening should be just as good as the first. He also insists on irreproachable service and is devoted to creating a pleasant atmosphere in his restaurants.<\/p>\n Aita Andoni handpicks his employees, creating a “familia Goiko Grill” atmosphere packed with good vibes!\n<\/p>\n The food here combines Venezuelan influences – reflecting the owner’s origins – with Spanish classics:\n<\/p>\n \nEach Goiko has its own special burger, dreamt up by the employees (both servers and chefs), then put to a vote. The winner is then featured on the menu!\n<\/p>\n The patties are made from fresh, local beef, the sauces are made in-house, and the bread, from a craft bakery nearby, is lightly toasted before being served.\n<\/p>\n \nSo, which burger will it be?<\/p>\n When?<\/strong> Monday – Sunday, 1pm – 7pm and 8pm – midnight Pim Pam! It’s a fun, friendly sort of name – a bit like the noise a burger makes when you flip it over on the grill. This tiny, pallet-built burger joint is a favourite with conoisseurs – and with anyone who happens to come across it while wandering the side-streets of the Born!<\/span><\/p>\n The kitchen is open, so you can see exactly what’s going on while you wait, and is impeccably clean. You can even see all of the ingredients, neatly lined up in a display case. <\/span><\/p>\n Some of the burgers are made from a mixture of beef and pork mince, whilst others are 100% beef. We prefer the all-beef version, but if you like a juicier patty with a higher fat content, then the blended option is the one for you. Once you’ve dealt with the “basics”, it’s time to add your toppings – essential for a good burger, in our book! You’ll find all of the classic options here: sliced tomato, raw red onion, gherkins, lettuce leaves and a handful of rocket. <\/span><\/p>\n \nPimPam’s burgers are well-balanced creations with a perfect blend of crisp and tender. They’re generously-sized, simple and budget-friendly – and most importantly, delicious! What more could you want?\n<\/p>\n When?<\/strong> Every day, noon – midnight – eat in or take away There are plenty of other places serving great burgers in Barcelona: try <\/span>La <\/span>Santa del Born, Timesburg<\/a>, Bacoa, Makamaka, Bro Burger or Vespa Burger.<\/p>\n Some members of our team swear by Santa Burg, the paradise for gourmet burger lovers<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"Burgers](\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/01\/focioli-n-730x414.jpg\")
