3 burgers places in Minneapolis we have eaten in, sorted by editor score. All cuisines in Minneapolis | Burgers across every city.

The burger is close to a civic icon in Minneapolis, thanks to the cheese-stuffed Jucy Lucy. Matt's Bar in Longfellow Powderhorn is the original claimant, while Uptown adds its own takes at the CC Club and Bebe Zito. Together they show how far a simple griddled patty can stretch across the city.

CC Club ★ 4.0

$$BurgersUptown

CC Club in Minneapolis is the Uptown dive that fed The Replacements and Husker Du, with Heggies burgers and cheese curds served until 2am every night.

OrderHeggies burger, hot dogs, pickle fries and cheese curds

TipThe Replacements and Husker Du local. Kitchen runs late but pickle-fries-and-curds order is the safe 1am pick; jukebox is the room.

Bebe Zito ★ 4.4

$BurgersUptown

Bebe Zito on West 22nd Street is Minneapolis's chef-driven ice cream and smash burger counter, with a flamed creme brulee scoop as its calling card.

OrderThe smash burger paired with a creme brulee ice cream, flamed at the counter.

TipOpen daily 11am to 10pm. The Malcolm Yards stall at 501 30th Ave SE is the easier sit; Uptown is the original.

Matt's Bar ★ 4.7

$BurgersLongfellow Powderhorn
