We like big burgers, and we cannot lie. Nor can you! The ultimate way to feel comfortable in a new place, especially a busy island city like Singapore, is a comfort meal.
For us, a meaty and cheese-filled burger does the trick. If you are in the same boat, then this list is tailor-made for you. Here is our selection of the best, most delicious burgers in Singapore. Happy feasting! Image Credit: 25 Degrees Singapore Facebook Page
BURN on Club Street
Brilliant for locals in Singapore. The famous $10 all-day Thursday To Saturday Burgers (with purchase of a drink) can be consumed at BURN. The Aussie Cheese Burger Classic with beef mince flown in from Mildura farms is a winner. Epic juicy patties that come alive with every bite! Firstly, the Patty. Its gotta be good fresh meat with just the right amount of fat to give you that fatty flavour every good burger deserves. Secondly The Bacon. Fresh middle bacon from a farm with little or no processing to give you all the natural flavours bacon has to offer.
Shake Shack
We don’t really need an excuse to hang out at the Jewel Changi Airport, but if we were, we’d blame our frequent visits on the terrific burgers at Shake Shack. Starting their journey from a cart selling hotdogs in Manhattan’s Madison Square Park, this joint has come a long way. The place makes three kinds of cheeseburgers, chicken burgers, and super-sumptuous vegetarian Roasted Garlic Mushroom Burger. Do not miss out on their refreshing Pandan Shake.

Five Guys
A family empire, Five Guys has been serving the US and the world delicious burgers and fries since 1986. What we love about their chain is their use of freshly ground beef. You would never feel like you’re eating a frozen, mass-produced burger. The menu is quite simple and serves hamburgers, cheeseburgers, bacon burgers, and bacon cheeseburgers, along with as many toppings as you’d like without any extra charge. Tuck into your burger and dig into fries Five Guys Style along with one of their lip-smacking milkshakes. Image Credit: Five Guys Facebook Page

SOS BAR & RESTAURANT (THE SAIL)
SOS Bar & Restaurant located at The Sail, Marina Bay has reopened its doors 7 days a week, 11:00am to 10:30pm under current government regulations. Don't miss out on their great weekly specials including Monday Munchies (burger and beer for $25) which includes the signature SOS Burger with a thick beef patty, cheese, crispy bacon, sautéed onions, lettuce, tomato and gherkins.
Wolf Burgers
We agree with the name of this particular burger joint because we do wolf down their burgers. Their Original WOLF will always be our favourite because it is a simple, true-blue American cheeseburger with a juicy beef patty, cheddar, a special in-house sauce, sauteed onions, lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles in a brioche bun. The sauce takes it several notches higher, and we love every bit of it. They also make a pretty good Teriyaki Chicken and Impossible Vegan Burger. Image Credit: Wolf Burgers Facebook Page

25 Degrees Burgers and Liquor Bar
Live like a Singaporean and dine like an American with epic burger joints like 25 Degrees. The place makes incredible beef burgers, fried chicken thigh burgers, and yellowfin tuna burgers. Take your pick and pair them with their unmissable Filthy Fries - perfectly cooked fries loaded with bacon gravy, caramelised onions, and cheese. They make vegetarian and vegan burgers as well and have the option of gluten-free buns too. If none of the burger choices entice you, they’ll let you customise your burger as well.

Meatsmith
The masters of juicy brisket, lamb ribs, steaks, and burgers, Meatsmith holds true to its name. Packed in potato buns, the cheeseburgers here are unique, loaded, and super-delicious. We would devour their Brisket Cheeseburger or Meatsmith Burger on any given day, but they also make some mean Lobster Sliders. They grill the lobsters and load up the buns with smoked cherry tomatoes and aioli sauce. So good! Do not miss out on their sassy cocktails and a wide selection of wine, beer, and spirits to go with your nosh. Image Credit: Meatsmith SG Facebook Page

Burger Frites
Sometimes simple recipes in the right proportions make a regular dish taste divine. Burger Frites makes a Classic Cheeseburger using a fire-grilled US Angus Beef Patty and packing it in an artisanal bun along with lettuce, tomato, pickles, double cheddar, raw onions, ketchup, and mustard. It tastes absolutely delicious. Each of their burgers are amazing and we are in love with their Burger Bleu with a special combo of blue cheese, bacon, and tartare. You can flip a beef patty for a fried chicken leg patty, fried camembert patty, or a plant-based beef patty. Image Credit: Burger Frites Facebook Page
Three Buns
Who said gourmet burgers need to be dainty and won’t make your fingers dirty? Three Buns makes them gourmet, and their buns, no puns intended, are loaded with juicy meat patties and sauces, and they will have you licking your fingers clean. Their burger menu has something for everyone, right from beef, pork, and chicken lovers to those who opt only for fresh produce and no meat. Our favourite amongst their burgers is the fiery Burning Man - Tasmanian vintage beef patty, gochujang, ketchup, jalapeno relish, smoked applewood cheddar, dashi mayo packed in a toasted wholemeal mango flour bun. Yum! Image Credit: Three Buns Facebook Page

Black Tap Singapore
Elevating the good ol’ burgers and giving them an oomph with their sauces and artisanal ingredients, Black Tap Singapore is a haven for foodies and burger-lovers alike. Their Chilli Cheese Burger is worth every delicious bite and comes with prime beef, chili con carne, American cheese, frizzled onions, and a zesty cheese sauce.

Hard Rock Cafe
We love rock n’ roll and a well-made burger. The place delivering both our favourites all day long is Hard Rock Cafe, and it just doesn’t get better than this. If you’ve never been here before, start off by ordering the Original Legendary Burger with a drool-worthy steak, applewood bacon, cheddar, crispy onion ring, lettuce, and tomato. They have other legendary steakburgers and vegan patty burgers with the same meaty deliciousness but zero meat. Image Credit: Hard Rock Cafe Singapore Facebook Page

Burger Bar New York
Bringing you closer to New York City, Burger Bar has the most epic American burgers on the island. While a hamburger might be your go-to, we do recommend trying their Jalapeno Cheeseburger and Fried Buttermilk Chicken with Spicy Coleslaw to entice your taste buds. What we also love about this place is their variety of vegetarian burgers, and amongst these, Portobello with Cheese & Jalapeno and Fried Camembert Burger are our favourites.

The Feather Blade
A good burger is dripping meat grease when you take a big bite of it, and the one at The Feather Blade fits the bill. Their burger is made with a beef fat fried patty, creamy bearnaise, and shallots. It is brilliant on its own, but for a wholesome burger experience, we do recommend ordering their Potatoes fried Wagyu Beef Fat, Ikura, and dill cream. Wash it all down with an extra chilled beer or one of your preferred cocktails. Image Credit: The Feather Blade Facebook Page
