Best Burgers in Dijon: Mustard and Beef

The best burgers in Dijon are in the historic centre, in the pedestrian streets between Place Darcy, Rue de la Liberté and the covered market of Les Halles. Place de la République and the station area, a short tram ride away, round out the search.

Dijon is a food city with a strong regional larder. Dijon mustard is the obvious condiment, though the name protects a recipe rather than an origin, and much of the seed has long come from Canada. Burgundy also raises Charolais cattle, a white beef breed named after the Charolais area in the south of the region, and makes Époisses, a pungent washed-rind cheese. Since 2022, the Cité internationale de la gastronomie et du vin has given the city a showcase for that heritage.
