A burgerjoint that has many choices from healthier to not so healthy options. Prices are a tad higher than average but there's sometimes good offers to choose.
Hesburger "thing" is their sauces which they have plenty to choose from. If you don't want to spend time thinking which one to choose then just take a meal and hope for the best.
This Hakaniemi establishment is a tad bigger Hesburger restaurant which is well located in a crossroad of public commuting. It's easily accessible from all over Helsinki. Building in which this burgerjoint is located has remarkable history. It's called Arena house its first part was built in 1924 and second part in 1929. This name comes from an old theater which is in this building.
Service is friendly and somewhat fast but Hesburger isn't exactly fastest burgerjoint so don't expect that.
Comfort food is served here so not much to complain there. Sometimes I wish they would make a tad more crisp fries. For beginners I recommend not to choose Mega burger because it's a bit hard for your stomach to handle.
Interesting feature for regular "bonus customers" is the fact that you can order and pay your food beforehand using their dedicated mobile app which is a handy feature to have if you're in a hurry. There's a special line for these customers which is marked. These bonus customers have various beneficiaries if they've been putting money to this establishment. You could get even better discounts and free coffee or mayonnaise sauces. It's generally recommend to be a bonus customer. Joining to this bonus club doesn't cost anything and the app works in English too if you want to visit these burgerjoints more often. You can find Hesburger restaurants from surprisingly many countries. And this bonus thing work in those countries too.
If you don't fancy a burger you can just have a coffee and some pastries. There's quite good coffee here which is a bit of surprise to find from a place like this. The reason for this is that they're using fresh beans to make that coffee.
Also free wifi for customers is provided here which is awesome for foreign travelers to sit back and wander into world of the internet.
I recommend to visit here if you're around this area and want to taste typical Finnish burgerjoint comfort food. There's really much things to choose so everyone will find things to eat here. Ask if you have a special diet they really have much choices for special...
Read moreI ordered from the touch screen. There was a line to the cashier. It literally took like 30 seconds to get my order done. It was so fast! That suprised me, but I guess that's why they call it "fast" food.
I recommend this Hesburger location 5/5. Fast, good quality(compared to other similar companies).
Downloading their application is a good idea to get some great discounts. I realized this too late and paid 4 euros too much for a meal.
The metro station hakaniemi is on the other side of the street. Lots of good public transportstion near by. Bus and ram stop near...
Read moreIf you like fast-food, Hesburger is a good place to go in Helsinki. The menu and the taste it's really similar to the McDonald's. The bread was a little bit dry. It's not the type of burger that I like, but my husband like this burgers and we didn't had a bad experience. My husband liked alot the chicken option. The atmosphere was good, typical of fast-food chain, and the place was clean. The service is slower than in other establishments of this style. We ate combos (burger+fries+coke) for 10 and...
