Franky’s

Franky’s has great burgers. It doesn’t look like much but it delivers probably one of the best hamburger menus in the city.
It is worth a fifteen minute detour if you are in the area.

To paraphrase my colleague when I tried to describe the location of Franky’s to him: «That place?! I must’ve walked by there a 100 times. I didn’t realize they serve burgers.» I don’t think anyone does, unless told. You can’t tell the name of the place from across the street since the place is lacking any large signs. Quite inconspicuous. What it doesn’t lack though, are great burgers. I’m talking 5-​star, up there, in my opinion, in the top 5 of burger places in this city along with Svenska Hamburgerköket, Flippin’ Burgers and Bun Meat Bun (and others I’ve yet to try).
It’s a tiny place and only a few seats outside on the sidewalk. I had the ‘Texas’ burger and it was super delicious. At first I thought it looked kind of tiny, like I should’ve sprung for the double paddy, but it was alright. Some 150 sek for the ‘Texas’ with fries and a bottle of soda. Not cheap, but definitely within the acceptable price range for a burger this good. You can opt out of the fries and soda though.

Honestly, I think it’s the best burgers in town, if not all Scandinavia, they far outreach everyone else with rich burger texture, absolute best taste, and nice fritz kola on a side. Location also makes it a bit special place for people «who know».

It doesnt have to be fancy to be good and it doesnt have to be big to be enough, but it has to be good to be good.
Frankys shelter right in front of Hard Rock is hard to miss, even though most ppl will pass it, thinking its just another hot-​dog stand. And that might be the biggest mistake you will do in the never ending search for the perfect burger.
Once you get in, there are six burger options and fries on the side if you want to. I went with the Texas burger and fries of course. There isnt very much space inside, so we ordered and got out with the estimation of 15 minutes waiting. If you want to dine in, there are a few spots along the windows, but its probably better to bring it outside if its possible. After 15 minutes of fame, one of the guys came outside with the whole meal in a bag, where burgers was separated in boxes that could be used as a plate wherever.
Burger was good, really good… fresh bread with a little bit of resilliance, juicy and flavored patties along with the crispy bacon. The sauce on the side was a nice addition to the crispy fries, and nothing you have to pay extra for.
In short: Go here if you dont want any surprises, and want to taste one of the best burgers in Stockholm.

Third best burger in town, with fantastic French fries and aioli! No milkshake, which was a shame. Crowded but friendly atmosphere.

Small place, maybe about 7 seats total. The food was delicious! I had burger and fries. If you are craving a burger, this is the place!

Great, tasty burger in a price range close to McDonalds. There is no arguing that it’s simply delicious, even though I am lacking a piece of unidentifiable substance that wouldn’t allow me to rate it with five stars. The competition in Stockholm is tough and there’s a bunch of really good burger places to choose from.
I had the Miami burger and will definitely revisit to give the others some justice as well. The fries are crispy & friedx2! The truffle aioli was good but don’t think that it actually tasted truffle, will try another dip sauce next time.
All in all — well worth a visit!

It’s just really amazing burgers!
There’s a dude fixing, burgers with fries, you can choose different toppings and two sauces, some drinks. As simple as that. And it is sooo good! I think that more words are just a waste of time. Go there and have a burger instead!!!

The burgers are outstanding as well as the fries. The price is worth the amazing quality of the food.
Small interior as the place is usually full around lunch. Crisp bacon, large juicy patties and nicely glazed bread is what you can expect.

I really thought I knew every single hamburger truck or restaurant that was worth knowing anything about. But for some reason Franky’s was a restaurant I never had laid eyes on nor even heard about until my friend briefly mentioned it last week. It is right outside Hard Rock Café on Sveavägen, I mean how can anyone miss it? Now I know.
The sign is a piece of paper on the front door and is not really screaming «Franky’s». So unless you know there is a burger joint right there, you will just pass it by thinking it’s one of those cheap franchises, like Solna Korvgrill.
I enter the door 20.30 and realize he is serving his last customer and that he actually closed at 20. He sees me and says it’s alright and that I can order even though he closed. (Bonus star!!)
I order the «Franky’s Big» menu which consists of a 200g burger which was juicy and really tasty, double fried fries which are probably the best double fried fries in Stockholm, BBQ dip which was a little hot on the side and a soda for only 135kr! The two things I would have liked to change with the burger is to remove the thick tomato and the bun. The bun was good per se but didn’t quite balance the burger.
Not only was the burger the forth best one I had in Stockholm, but the owner is all for customer service which ranks highly in my book. He is also modest, talkative and cool. I will definitely be back with more friends because this is the kind of restaurant I would like to support.

Best burgers I have had in Stockholm. Combined with the glass chips, I would highly recommend it. Be sure to be there around 11:30 to avoid the lunch rush. There are only 2 chefs there. If you wait a bit, it will pay off!

In this unassuming former Potato Twister kiosk, a friendly owner-​operator serves simply prepared burgers, sausages, and fries. Everything is made daily from fresh ingredients, including a must-​try BBQ sauce.
With Flippin’ closed for lunch on weekdays and Oljebaren a bit far away for many, Franky’s is a perfect weekday lunch option.

I came to this place after looking for burger joints recommended by fellow Unilocalers.
I’m glad to say that Franky’s Burger was excellent, the chef prepares the patties right on the spot according to what you order. It’s evident that he takes great pride on his work and food. Due to the presentation of the burger and fries, I would venture to say that these are kind of «gourmet burgers», if such thing exist.
I ordered the Franky’s Big burger which was juicy, perfectly seasoned and flavorful; the only thing it lacked was one tiny thing: some spicy sauce or jalapeños, that would have been just marvelous, the cherry on the top (I’m sorry I’m Mexican and I always dream of places adding spicy sauces to everything, hehehe). The fries were delicious and the portion was very generous.
The place is kind of small, not a place to hang out 10 or more minutes after you are done eating. It’s great to grab a quick bite with a couple of friends but there’s no privacy at all, meaning that from corner to corner everything can be heard.
Verdict:
Will I go again? Definitely yes!
Will I recommend this place? Of course, even more to burger lovers.
What about the price? IMHO, the price you pay for the quality of the burger and the service is adequate.

Excellent real home made burgers, freshly ground by hand every day. The bread is potato based and the bacon is crisp and bountiful as it should be.

Not a common sunky burgerplace! Great burgers. Don’t get fooled by the exterior. Had a Mardi Gras burger which was a decent lunch.
