    Duck fat fries
    Austin W.

    My wife and I dined at Hamburguesa Bar on a Thursday evening and when we arrived at 5:30 p.m., there was a long line out the door. Although the restaurant has bar seats, you have to wait to be seated, and it's one-in-one-out. That said, most diners seemed pretty respectful and considerate of the long line and tried to wrap up their meal quickly. I ended up ordering a double smash burger -- the El Reno, while my wife ordered the original -- the Hamburguesa. Between us, we also shared an order of their duck fat fries and a boozy cookie crispy milkshake. Between the two burgers, the original was definitely a lot better tasting in terms of flavors and seasoning; the El Reno desperately needed some salt. The burgers are pretty messy to eat, and you'll likely need at least two napkins. The buns are soft and the patties are extremely juicy, which actually makes for the worst combination if you're a slow eater, as the buns will deteriorate quickly. The patties are not smashed lace thin here, but rather, they're pretty on par with what you might receive at In-N-Out. The star of the show for me were the duck fat fries. The fries here were incredibly crispy on the outside and were salted generously. One order is definitely large enough for two to share. Last but not least, the boozy cookie crisp milkshake was a delicious dessert in a cup. The milkshake had just the right amount of sweetness to it, and although you can definitely taste the alcohol in the drink, it's well-balanced and doesn't feel overwhelming. The drink is well-constructed and I would happily order one again. Overall, I had a pretty good meal and would stop by again.

    I really appreciate this place for what it is. They don't overcomplicate anything but the food and ambiance still feels perfectly curated. Real old-timey dive bar feeling during the day that gets lively and energetic at night. Only feedback would be that it feels like they need 1-2 more people working there during peak hours but the existing staff still does their best and kills it. Burgers are on point Fries are addicting Some of the beers are priced like its still 2016 (plz keep it this way)

    We looked up a burger spot before a long night ahead, and Hamburguesa Bar immediately caught our attention. Honestly the boozy milkshake was what sold me! We walked over and found a small line going into a dark restaurant. I actually walked right past it at first because I didn't see a sign out front. We decided to stay in line though, and I'm glad we did. The line moved surprisingly fast. I ordered the Hamburguesa, while my daughter went with the All American. We also ordered the Duck Confit Poutine to share among the four of us. I have to say, everything was flavorful and really good. The portions were just right... not so much that you felt overly full but enough to leave everyone feeling satisfied. I'm not sure when I'll be in the area again but if I get the chance, I'd definitely love to come back and try more of what they have to offer!

    All American Burger with duck fat fries
    Allen T.

    I seriously love this place. I eat a lot of burgers, and the Hamburguesa Bar's All American with duck fat fries might be my favorite. The All American is a classic beefy burger with delicious beefy flavor and the duck fat fries are super crisp - crisp and flavorful without being quite as heavy as beef tallow fries. The service was quick and fast, and the bar seating was nice and comfy. If you are above a certain age, the decor will take you back in time - like a bowling alley's bar from the early 80's - all that's missing are the ashtrays and cigarette smoke.

    Hamburguesas, margaritas and fries

    Had been wanting to try this place after hearing so many great things about it. Walked in on a Wednesday around 6pm and got lucky the window seats were open. A line started to form shortly after we were seated so it does get busy! There is no sign on the outside to designate it is here as we definitely walked right past it without noticing. The menu is small enough and easy to navigate. Burgers, fries, drinks and shakes served up in a dimly lit diner like feel with easy and fast service. Burgers were piping hot fresh off the grill. Fries were crispy and tasty and our margaritas refreshing and strong. We finished off with the boozy Oreo shake which had rum in it for desert. The shake was definitely heavy on the alcohol but that was fine with us since we shared it. Prices are also very reasonable with a simple burger for $8. Recommend!

    "We" went here for a midweek lunch. And it didn't disappoint. Plus I didn't need to eat again until the next morning. Black Label Brisket Burger with the mushroom ragout... wow. Duck Fat Fries WITH the poutine curds and gravy AND Duck Confit (generous)... MY LORD. And to top it off, Oreo Shake (great recommendation) and a Mexican Coke for "balance" and bubbles. They even had the movie Meatballs on the TV. Great vibes, such quick and friendly service at the counter. "We" will be back. (Cards on the table... using the Royal "we". And i don't regret the 3000+ calories at ALL).

    All good! Smash burgers $13 not bad for the city. We will come back. Full bar too. 70's vibe. Everyone is tatted up. Good servixe.

    It's dark. It's sexy. It's a vibe that you don't want to miss out on. Hamburguesa Bar is that slice of heaven that serves up one of the best burgers in San Francisco. You want the Black Label tavern burger. The burger is made out of tender brisket, is layered with mushroom ragout, truffle butter, Demi-glacé, and white American cheese. The smash burger is seasoned perfectly, and has that great crispy edge, and is deliciously juicy. Each bite is just perfect. All of the layers of flavor meld together in perfect harmony with one another. You need the fries. Their duck fat fries should be a food group. They are scrumptious! It's that perfect fry. They are light, and did I mention scrumptious?!? You get that crunch when you bite into one with that light fluffy inside. As if this wasn't perfect enough, of course I had to try the shake. They offer two versions: boozy shakes for those of us that really want to adult our "happy meal" and their regular shakes. The shakes are amazing. It's everything that you want in a shake and more. It's creamy, thick, and phenomenal. Something I rarely find in a shake, but it's absolutely worth the calories. This is a great place to go with a date/SO, friends, or even if you just wanna hang on your own. I can assure you that you will not only enjoy the meal, but you'll want to go back and do it all over again!

    Finding a burger isn't hard to find especially in downtown San Francisco. There are lots of places to go when it comes to fast food places like McDonald's ( some just go for the happy meals) and there is Burger King ( who says there are no kings) and then there are those still waiting for the Jollibee to open on Market street for about a year. There is a place which seems out of place inside in Downtown San Francisco. It has a picture on the wall of Kenny Rogers ( RIP) and the decor looks like I stepped into a Time Machine decades ago with analog electronics . This place serves poutine like a Canadian bar in Calgary and has hamburgers tastier than all surrounding fast food places and local chain stores and its name is Spanish for Hamburger and it's called Hamburguesa Bar. On a Downtown stroll I landed at Hamburguesa Bar on 2nd street off Market street. Inside felt like Deja Vu with a bar which reminded me of a time I was in Missouri around the Ozarks at bar with a similar vibe. You will hear country classics and rock and roll classics playing along a television which looks like it was in a pawn shop decades ago. The ambience was interesting along with the food. I felt excited ordering the All American tavern burger since America turns 250 years old next month. The buns were soft and the beef was juicy and it was tasty and not too cheesy like some in SF. I then crossed north of the border into Canadian cuisine territory and had the poutine. The hand cut duck fat fries were crispy and it had flavor and the cheese curds weren't too cheesy and the rest of it was all gravy. A good place to grab a North American meal. Feels vintage although this restaurants opened in 2026 it is "new"they sell cheeseburgers and "brew "this place decor has different old San Francisco POV also known as "Point Of View" It feels like I am somewhere else but it feels like "Deja Vu" Hamburgesa Bar feels like I stepped into a "Time Machine" when the sun always shines on a "television screen" grab some Americana food and Canadian "cuisine "like their tasty cheesy "poutine"

    If you're looking for a great burger at a reasonable price in Downtown SF, Hamburguesa Bar is the spot. The vibe is cool, casual, and divey, with food that is sooo fire. We ordered the hand-cut duck fat fries, Caesar salad, Hamburguesa Smash Burger, and Hatch Chile Smash Burger, and every single item was a hit. The burgers were juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The duck fat fries were crispy, addictive, and the perfect pairing to our meal. I also ordered a dirty martini, which was solid! The atmosphere is fun and laid-back. We waited about 15 minutes for a table, but the bartenders were attentive, so we were able to order drinks and food while we waited. Once seated, our food came out quickly. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area - I know I'll be back!

    The $8 Hamburguesa
    Nova P.

    Loved this spot for so many reasons. I came here with a work crew for lunch. Heard that there were some timing issues when HB first opened, and it seems like they worked out the kinks. We found a booth big enough for our group and were approached fairly quickly after we arrived. Once we ordered, the food came out in a reasonable time. The ambiance wis fabulous. Legit diner 80 bar with midwest vibes as confirmed by an Ohio transplant in our group. Music was loud so don't expect to get any peace and quiet. And the food... so delicious. Most of our group order the $8 Hamburguesa. I was worried that 3.5 oz. smashed patty wouldn't be enough but it was the perfect amount. The crisp skirt on the patty was season well and the pickled jalapeño and queso fundido brought more depth. The buns were so soft. We all shared the duck fat fries which were addicting. Great for lunch but we all had to run off to meetings. We didn't really get to explore any libations. We all agreed that we need to come back after work to get the full beverage and food experience.

    Dim ambience, cocktails, shakes, burgers and fries. Hamburguesa Bar is one of the best burgers i've had in The City with delicious fries & the perfect place for casual eats in a nice setting. Will definitely be back!

    $8 smash burger? Say less. Beware -- parking is practically nonexistent. We arrived right at peak lunch hour around 12pm and almost every table was taken. Service was quick though, and the low-light ambiance with music playing gave off cozy tavern bar vibes. We ordered the Hatch Chile burger, Hamburguesa, duck fat fries, and an Oreo milkshake. WOW. The burgers were seriously tasty. I do wish I had added another patty to the Hamburguesa, but the pickled jalapeños and queso paired so perfectly together. The Hatch Chile burger was also packed with flavor -- definitely recommend if you want something with a little more chile kick. And the duck fat fries? YUM. Hot, crispy, and dangerously good. Last but not least... an Oreo milkshake at a bar?! I was blown away. It wasn't overly sweet, super creamy, and topped with whipped cream. Honestly the perfect palate cleanser after all the savory food. Still shocked at how well a bar executed both burgers and milkshakes. Wish it was in a more accessible area, but I'd absolutely go out of my way to come back again.

    What a fun spot! The Summer Place is a bar I've passed numerous time during my trips to the city,…read moreyet somehow never made my way in. I've now been twice in the past few months and consider this part of my regular bar rotation in SF. My favorite thing about The Summer Place is the way they deck the halls for holidays. I'm a sucker for a good themed bar, or a bar that isn't afraid to dress itself up for holidays or special occasions (we have plenty of speakeasies and upscale cocktail lounges, y'all - bring back some of the kitsch!). And The Summer Place definitely hits that mark. For Halloween, they had a ton of Nightmare Before Christmas decor adorning every square inch of the interior real estate. It's a relatively small bar, so seating or standing areas may be tough to come by on crowded nights, but if you hang around, something seems to usually open up. The drinks are all fun and pretty good too - nothing too crazy, but consistently enjoyable and creative, with prices that won't break the bank. We tried just about every drink on their Halloween menu, from Oogie Boogie's Bog Water to Worm Wort, and found them all quite good. The servers have all been very kind and really contribute to the fun atmosphere. This is one of those bars that feels like a true neighborhood haunt, where everyone is a regular and knows each other. So if you're looking for a fun, mildly chaotic, quintessential neighborhood bar experience with good drinks and a great energy in the Tendernob area, The Summer Place is your place!

    This is such a great space in a not so great area. We recently [rediscovered] coming here after…read morebooking so many concert shows at the nearby Warfield Theater. I haven't been back here since the late 1990's-early 2000's, when I was a club kid coming up from the suburbs to party late into the night in the Folsom, SOMA, TL, Nob Hill, & Castro neighborhoods. I believe that it used to be called the Arrow Bar? And the venerable Tu Lan is still next door. Everything else around here has seriously gone downhill... open drug usage, unhoused, unstable, and just plain derelict & bizarre behavior & people going on in front of this bar. But, if you can wade through the depressing sea of inhumanity out front, the Rumpus Room is your sanctuary for good drinks, great music, cool/divy ambiance, and a crowd that just wants to have fun, drink, and party! Outside, sure it's not much. You'll have to pass by the saddest sights, but once you cross the threshold that is the front door, you are greeted by some sweet music, a long packed bar, ambient lighting, and some mighty comfortable stools. The bartenders here are friendly, social, engaging, composed, chill, and just plain nice, despite this place being super busy, crowded, and on the verge of being overwhelmed. The music being played here is probably better than the concert that I'm about to attend. Always cutting edge, sometimes metal, sometimes electronica, sometimes indy, always on point. The bar itself is clean, comfortable, cozy, and a great place to pre-game before heading to a concert. They even post showtimes & tell you who is going on & when at the Warfield, so you can time your drinking according to when you want to leave to see your favorite bands. The drinks here are great. The list is extensive & awesome. All of my favorites of beers, ciders, IPA's, hazys, seltzers, lagers, stouts, ales, and booze. I tried their house Mule, and now I'm addicted. It is pre-made and poured from a tap, but it is so delicious. I usually end up having 3-4. Their other cocktails like the Paloma, Old Fashioned, It'll Do, and Whiskey Smash are all amazing too. I could drink here all night, but I'm in town to see a show, so parting is bittersweet & hard to do. The bartenders, bar backs, and even fellow drinkers are all amazing here. Everyone is here to have fun, is super nice, and downright chill. The space is clean, it's roomy, there's even an upstairs, and the bathroom isn't as noxious as most dive bars can be. Love this bar, will be back every time we come to the area for music, arts, entertainment, or amusement. No excuse needed to head to Rumpus Room before going anywhere else around mid-Market, this place is amazing, fun, safe, and satisfying. Get your drink on here before doing anything else around SF.

    First, the neighborhood is... well at a glance, you might be put off. But Rumpus Room is an oasis…read moreof calm and good music. The staff is super chill and all of them are friendly. I live in the neighborhood and have said many times that I am glad to find this bar! Tuesday night they have INCREDIBLE karaoke!

Brie is absolutely the Queen of cocktails, mixing up your favorite, and her versions of it that are going to be your new favorite! Her housemade strawberry syrup is ridiculously good!
