I'm an Indian girl living, loving and lost in Madrid -- I've been here over a year now. Here I write and rant for a handful of travel-blogs, and teach English to pay my rent. When I'm not trying to work, I'm normally at a bar eating tapas and...

Oskar Burger: HUGE, juicy and cheap burgers!

A burger is a burger is a burger. When traveling, we often crave them and resort to uncle Ronald McDonald or his majesty Burger King. But you know what, look a little harder and you'll get your burger, usually bigger, better and cheaper, in local city joints.

Oskar Burger in Plaza Santo Domingo in Madrid's city centre is one such place. Their burgers are HUMONGOUS, with fresh bread buns, and beef/chicken/fish patties made in-house. You can pretty much get them to make them just as you like it: with bacon, with egg, with cheese, without mayonnaise, with some chilli, whatever. They are priced anything between €3 and €5, and they really hit the spot.

What's more, you won't have to ask for extra little packets of ketchup and mustard, they will put FULL squeezy-bottles of them on your table (not common in Madrid). You'll have to order fries separately, but one plate is enough for two people and they are made of freshly cut potatoes.

Incase you want a salad, tapas or a steak instead, you can get that too -- but it's famous for its burgers. My mouth dribbles just thinking of the place! A must go for burger lovers.  

Open 11am-Midnight everyday.
