The best burgers in Jakarta are at Three Buns in Senopati, Le Burger in SCBD and PEPR. in Senayan. That’s my top three; seven more follow below. Most of the strong places sit in South Jakarta, around Senopati, SCBD, Cipete and Kemang, and Menteng in Central Jakarta adds two more. Budget roughly 78,000 to 135,000 IDR for a signature burger, based on listings from late 2025 and 2026.

How I ranked Jakarta’s burger restaurants

I ranked these 10 places by cross-checking recent local food press against menu prices and opening data, and I checked every source on October 11, 2026. The main sources are What’s New Indonesia’s burger guide (updated May 19, 2026), The Jakarta Post and its Weekender, Manual Jakarta, and Jawa Pos (December 2025 and January 2026). Recency counted for more than reputation. I also wanted a spread of styles: smash, chef-driven, smoked, and rock’n’roll.

To be clear about what this is: a desk-researched ranking, not a tasting tour. The opinions below rest on the menus, the prices and what the press has reported, and I say where my information is thin. I left out Google ratings because I couldn’t record them reliably with a date. Some prices are years old, so each one carries its date. For Three Buns, Meatsmith, Flip Burger and Mogul Burger, my latest source isn’t a first-party listing, so check opening hours before you go.

1. Three Buns: the best burger in Senopati

Three Buns is my number-one burger in Jakarta. It’s the Potato Head group’s burger bar on Jl. Senopati Raya, with a menu created by chef Adam Penney. Order the Piggie Smalls: a 120 g beef patty, twice-cooked pork belly, smoked cheese and onions. In 2019, Big Seven Travel ranked Three Buns first in its 50 best burgers in Asia (according to a Lonely Planet listing).

Why first? No other place on this list has an international ranking behind it, and no other burger here puts beef and pork on the same bun.

  • Address: Jl. Senopati Raya No. 90, Kebayoran Baru, Jakarta Selatan 12190
  • Hours: 11 am–1 am daily (Trip.com)
  • Good to know: serves pork, so it is not a halal option

2. Le Burger: Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s gourmet burger in SCBD

Le Burger is Jakarta’s chef-driven gourmet burger. Michelin-starred chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten created it with his son Cédric, and it opened in SCBD in 2018. The Truffle Burger, a blend of imported beef with brie and truffle sauce on a potato bun, is listed at 130,000 IDR on Chope. Le Burger also won Best Casual Dining Jakarta at the Exquisite Awards 2022.

That price puts it among the most expensive burgers here, and part of what you pay for is the Vongerichten name. I’d still send anyone staying in SCBD here first.

  • Address: Jl. Jend. Sudirman Kav. 52-53, Lot 11, SCBD, Jakarta 12190
  • Good to know: the building was the Alila SCBD hotel until it left Hyatt’s portfolio on August 4, 2025; it now goes by Discovery SCBD. What’s New Indonesia still listed Le Burger in May 2026. Instagram: @leburger_jkt

3. PEPR.: the best smash burger in Jakarta

PEPR. is my pick for the best smash burger in Jakarta. The founders spent eight months developing the bun with Bread Culture bakery, which tells you where their priorities lie. Theo Tedjasasmita, a former accountant, runs it with Clairine “Clay” Runtung. The name? Their cat Pedro, nicknamed “Pepe”. Order the Double Smashed Cheeseburger. If you want something heavier, the Son of a Bun adds mushrooms, bone marrow sauce and onion rings.

  • Address: Jl. Tentara Pelajar No. 1, Rukan Permata Senayan Blok B.17 (Patal Senayan), Jakarta Selatan. Second location at Urban Forest Cipete

4. Dan’s Burgers: classic American smashburgers in Cipete

Dan’s Burgers does classic American smashburgers from an open kitchen in Cipete, and nothing else. The menu has three burgers: the Classic Smashburger, the California Cheeseburger and a Kids Cheeseburger. That’s it. I see the short list as a strength. The Classic cost 84,000 IDR in December 2025, according to Jawa Pos, and it’s the reason Dan’s runs PEPR. so close.

  • Address: Jl. Prapanca Raya No. 103, Cipete Utara, Kebayoran Baru, Jakarta Selatan 12150
  • Hours: 10 am–10 pm daily

5. Lawless Burgerbar: heavy-metal burgers born in Kemang

Lawless Burgerbar is Jakarta’s rock’n’roll burger bar. It grew out of Lawless Jakarta, a Kemang clothing store, motorcycle garage and record label. Its founders include Arian Arifin (“Arian 13”) and Sammy Bramantyo, singer and bassist of the metal band Seringai. Every burger is named after a band or a musician: The Lemmy, the Sabbath Burger, Philly Anselmo. The Lemmy is the one to order, with a double beef patty, cheese, beef bacon, brisket and a fried egg. A late-2025 Foodierate listing put it at 135,000 IDR; other listings range from 125,000 to 149,000.

  • Original address: Jl. Kemang Selatan VIII No. 67H, Kemang, Jakarta Selatan
  • Branches: Kemang, Blok M, Menteng, Bintaro, PIK and Cibubur were confirmed in January 2023 (ANTARA); check Instagram for the current list
  • Good to know: it’s a beer bar. Instagram: @lawless.burgerbar

6. Belly Bandit: smash burgers and vegan options in Menteng

Belly Bandit is the best burger in Central Jakarta, for smash fans and vegans alike. The patties are made in-house, and the sides are tater tots or waffle fries. It’s also the only place in my top 10 where I could confirm vegan options. Burgers started at 45,000 IDR in 2021, the latest price I found, so expect more today.

  • Address: Jl. Dr. GSSJ Ratulangi No. 25, Menteng, Jakarta Pusat 10350
  • Instagram: @eatbellybandit

7. Bobby’s Burgers: the 2025 newcomer now in Kuala Lumpur

Bobby’s Burgers is the best-value newcomer on this list. It opened in 2025 and had reached Kuala Lumpur by 2026. The founder, Ben Sumadiwiria, trained at Le Cordon Bleu Malaysia and worked as a chef. Online, he’s better known as his character “Bobby Saputra”. In January 2026, The Jakarta Post Weekender priced the Bobby’s Double (two smashed prime beef patties) at 78,000 IDR and the wagyu Bobby’s Deluxe at 108,000 IDR, both with the house Billionaire Sauce. For a double with a 2026 price, that’s the lowest I found.

  • Jakarta locations: ASHTA District 8 (SCBD), Pondok Indah Mall 3, Lippo Mall Puri
  • Abroad: The Exchange TRX, Kuala Lumpur (2026)

8. Meatsmith Xpress: smoked meat in Kebayoran Baru

Meatsmith Xpress is the burger and wings counter on the ground floor of Meatsmith, a smokehouse from Dave Pynt of Burnt Ends in Singapore. Everything there is smoked in Southern Pride smokers over orange and apple wood. On pedigree it would sit higher. It’s eighth only because my latest editorial source is Manual Jakarta from 2022, so confirm it’s open before you go.

  • Address: Jl. Gunawarman No. 17, Selong, Kebayoran Baru, Jakarta Selatan 12110

9. Flip Burger: a Senopati favorite since 2016

Flip Burger has served double-patty burgers in Senopati since August 19, 2016. Chef Afit of Holycow Steak founded it. The Smacker stacks two beef patties with beef bacon and cheese. It cost 67,273 IDR in 2020, the most recent price I could source, and it’s surely higher now.

  • Original address: Jl. Senopati No. 27, Kebayoran Baru, Jakarta Selatan

10. Mogul Burger: set menus in SCBD Park

Mogul Burger is the SCBD pick for a quick lunch with the drink included. The menu covers a Classic Cheese, a Double Smash and the smaller Mogul Jr. Sets with a drink cost 130,000 to 198,000 IDR, though I couldn’t date that price. It’s last because it’s the least distinctive burger here, not because it’s a bad one.

  • Address: SCBD Park, Jl. Jend. Sudirman Kav. 52-53, Kebayoran Baru, Jakarta Selatan

FAQ: best burgers in Jakarta

Where can I eat the best burger in Jakarta?

My top three are Three Buns on Jl. Senopati Raya, Le Burger in SCBD and PEPR. in Senayan. Three Buns has the international recognition, Le Burger is the chef-driven option, and PEPR. is the one for smash burgers.

What is the best smash burger in Jakarta?

My pick is the Double Smashed Cheeseburger at PEPR. Dan’s Burgers in Cipete is close behind with its Classic Smashburger (84,000 IDR in December 2025). Belly Bandit in Menteng and Bobby’s Burgers in SCBD are also worth the trip.

How much does a burger cost in Jakarta?

A signature burger at a sit-down burger restaurant in Jakarta costs about 78,000 to 135,000 IDR, based on the most recent listings I could find. Bobby’s Double cost 78,000 IDR in January 2026, and Dan’s Classic Smashburger cost 84,000 IDR in December 2025. Le Burger’s Truffle Burger is listed at 130,000 IDR, and Lawless’s The Lemmy at 135,000 IDR in a late-2025 listing. Older prices start at 45,000 IDR (Belly Bandit, 2021).

Jakarta burger prices compared, in rupiah (IDR): Belly Bandit from 45,000 (2021), Flip Burger Smacker 67,273 (2020), Bobby’s Double 78,000 (Jan 2026), Dan’s Classic Smashburger 84,000 (Dec 2025), Bobby’s Deluxe 108,000 (Jan 2026), Le Burger Truffle Burger 130,000 (Chope) and Lawless The Lemmy 135,000 (2020).

Are Jakarta burger restaurants halal? Which ones serve pork or alcohol?

None of the restaurants in this guide has a halal certification I could verify. Three Buns serves pork, and Lawless Burgerbar and Le Burger are beer bars. For the others, ask the restaurant before ordering. A beef bacon option doesn’t mean a restaurant is halal-certified.

Are there good vegan burgers in Jakarta?

Belly Bandit in Menteng is the one I’d point you to: it serves vegan options alongside its beef smash burgers.

Which gourmet chef burger should I try in Jakarta?

Try the Truffle Burger at Le Burger in SCBD, created by Jean-Georges Vongerichten and his son Cédric. For a smokehouse take, Meatsmith on Gunawarman comes from Burnt Ends’ Dave Pynt.
