The full ranking
Dry-aged Rubia Gallega in Valencia, gochujang-glazed smash patties in Stockholm, Wagyu cheeseburgers outside Osaka. The world has been quietly out-burgering America for years, and these are the addresses where the proof is on the bun.
Hundred Burgers (Valencia, Spain)
The first restaurant outside the United States to top the World's Best Burgers list, and a repeat winner since 2024. Co-founders Alex Gonzalez-Urbon and Ezequiel Maldjian use 120-day aged beef, hand-formed patties, and bread baked fresh each morning in a library-themed dining room in Valencia's city center.
Black Bear Burger (London, UK)
Devon-raised, dry-aged British beef from a family farm, custom-baked buns delivered daily, and house-cut fries. The Black Bear Burger took the 2025 National Burger of the Year award with its Double Miso Bacon, and every bill arrives with a complimentary mini soft-serve cone.
Bleecker (London, UK)
Zan Kaufman brought her New York sensibility to London in 2012 with a food truck and a single conviction: grass-fed, dry-aged beef, 40 days, no gimmicks. The Cheeseburger was named the best burger in the UK and second best in the world.
Holy Burger (São Paulo, Brazil)
Since 2013, chef Fih Fernandes has been smashing patties in downtown Sao Paulo, and the world has taken notice. The restaurant ranked second on the World's Best Burgers list in 2026, with the dry-aged, sugarcane-molasses Pony Line the standout.
Burger & Beyond (London, UK)
Started as a Shoreditch burger truck, now a multi-site London institution known for thick dry-aged patties hung 28 to 45 days in Himalayan salt-lined drying fridges. The bone marrow gravy fries and boozy milkshakes have become London standards.
Funky Chicken Food Truck (Stockholm, Sweden)
Sweden's best burger by Burger Dudes for five consecutive years, and ranked among the top five in the world. The Stockholm Smash is the calling card: coarsely ground black pepper, a seriously crunchy crust, and a style that has spread across Scandinavia.
Briochef (Madrid, Spain)
Burgerdudes crowned Briochef the best burger in Madrid and a fixture on their World's Best Burgers list since 2023. Galician beef dry-aged for nearly 90 days meets a super-fluffy house brioche, with the gochujang-mayo Brooklyn the signature order and a 4.8 Google rating across more than 11,000 reviews.
Gui's Burger (Osaka, Japan)
An Ashiya-area pocket-sized burger counter run by chef Gui that grills wagyu and dry-aged patties with the precision of a kaiseki kitchen. Less than a dozen seats; a hot ticket among Kansai food obsessives.
All or Nothing Burger (Alicante, Spain)
A smash burger specialist that jumped from Gran Canaria to Alicante and promptly landed on the World's Best Burgers ranking. Bold American-style smashed patties with Mediterranean touches earn it a 4.8 Google rating, among the highest marks of any burger spot in Spain.
Goldieboy (Melbourne, Australia)
A Brighton smash-burger shack that built a cult through a fanatical attention to crust, cheese pull, and bun engineering. Tiny menu, monster queues, a four-star reputation from Australia's pickiest eaters.
