A small hole in the wall burger place hidden in oedipus brewery. It is an excellent burger which you can enjoy whilst drinking a nice refreshening crisp pint of beer.

Their fries were crispy as well and I surely will be back to try out their other burgers.

Out of food with a reservation.

Visited Oedipus end of November. I had reserved a table for 5 people at 5PM. We arrive at 5.15PM along with a friends baby.

We try to order food an hour after some beers. We get a "we don't have any buzzers" excuse, we wait for 30 mins more and then we get a "we're out of food", after waiting for and hour and 45 mins and getting fairly impatient, the lady at the counter says I'll check with the kitchen and now magically there IS food (without taking our order..) BUT now we along with a baby have to wait for an hour and a half MORE!. We left of course.

Several customers after us got their meals so this was just surprising to me. I've been to Oedipus 3 times before and loved every single visit, this was just horrendous service.

We came in on saturday afternoon, soaking wet from the heavy rain and the place was not crowded but have a nice gezellig vibe. We ordered the kimchi burger and the other fries with homemade chilli on top which were immaculate. Meat is perfectly cooked & smoky, the kimchi adds the perfect kick to it. Our favorite is actually the double cooked fries which was delicious. Everything all together is 10/10 + the lady at service is very nice & helpful.

Everytime I eat a Beef Chief burger it’s amazing. There aren’t a lot of places in Amsterdam where you can get a smash burger and nailing it like them. Fries are spiced and cooked well (big portion!) the location is industrial (very Noord-like) and you order and pay at the bar. They share the spot with Oedipus so you can enjoy a lot of “special” beers and drinks. The place is perfect for groups and very casual(can be loud at times so keep in mind)

Love the burgers! Especially the kimchi burger.
What makes it even better is that you're ordering good beers on tap from Oedipus

The food was amazing. The burgers were really good and they have a nice selection of fries. The beer selection is amazing too. However, the music was too loud (more like club music than „have a relaxed dinner) and if you are two people, good luck finding a spot. Reservations can only be made if you are a group and the place was full on a friday evening. Spots around the entry are also quite cold as they don‘t close the door.

Burgers very good but pricey.

Fries weren't so good. a little to salty and a little to dry and well done.

One of the best burgers I've had. Get the simple smash burger "magnificent seven" and you won't be disappointed. The chipotle ketchup and mustard go so well with the crispy beef patties and melted cheese. We also got the chili cheese burger and while good it didn't come close to the heights reached by the smash burger. We'll come back every time we're in Amsterdam.
