Located just outside of town, Got Beef is a pioneer of the growing foodie scene on Whitchurch Road. If you're looking for top-quality Welsh beef, served up in classic American style, then this is the place for you!

Five Guys

Coming fresh from the US, this is probably the most authentically American burger experiences in the city, down to the foil-wrapping and sesame bun (not a brioche in sight). This is definitely what you would call a dirty burger, making it one to try for those who are looking to upgrade from the standard fast food offerings in town. With a huge choice of toppings, the burger is also perfect for everyone, from the incredibly fussy to those who enjoy a fully-loaded burger stack. Be warned, the offerings are a bit on the pricey side, so don't expect fast food price-point.
Shake Shack
Another American import, Shake Shack has caused some debate amongst Cardiff diners, but is a fast favourite with many burger devotees. Like Five Guys, the burgers are a bit on the pricey side, but for the taste, we'd say they are more than worth it! Getting the balance of ingredients spot-on, Shake Shack definitely delivers on the taste front, with a juicy meat patty and soft potato bun. Another stand out, is the selection of shakes and frozen custards, each of which are creamy and utterly delicious. If you're looking for a unique, Cardiff twist, go for the Welsh cake flavour, you won't regret it!

It wouldn't be right to compile a list of Cardiff burgers, without giving this place a spot! Now with two locations in Cardiff's city centre, you have no excuse to miss out on an opportunity to visit one of the city's best-loved dining spots. With so many locals and tourists dubbing this the best burger in Cardiff, you at least have to find out what all the fuss is about for yourself, don't you? Whatever you decide to order, you're sure to be impressed with the size of the burger, and portion of delicious, chunky fries on the side!
Time and Beef

Time and Beef is the new kid on the block, but it's already well on it's way to becoming the leader of Cardiff's burger scene, even with all that competition from American imports and local favourites! Time and Beef's selling point, is it's fantastic range of customisation options, which means that customers are able to order a truly bespoke burger. When we say customisation, we don't mean adding a few extra toppings! At Time and Beef, you get the chance to pick everything from your bun to your patty, and everything between!
