    Treehugger Burger (vegetarian)
    Suvi P.

    The veggie burger I had here was so good it went to my all time top 5 due to the great veggie patty and tasty sweet american bun. We visited Cock's & Cows on a Monday at 1PM and there weren't very many other customers at the same time. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was ok - probably more interesting in the evening.

    Cheeseburger with bacon

    Good ole American burgers and milkshakes! Cocks and Cows were voted best burger by AOK (a Danish blog) and given my husband's quest to find the best burger, we came here on a Saturday afternoon. Food: 4/5 The milkshakes were delicious! We had the strawberry milkshake and the chocolate espresso, both were amazingly good. It was topped with whipped cream (the good stuff, not cool whip), sprinkles and a maraschino cherry (the cherry tasted bad, don't eat it). The burgers were also quite tasty: cheese and bacon burger, "Illegal" which is guacomole and the jalapeno is served on the side. You could choose the type of bread it is served on and the beef patty was moist and juicy (medium rare). They used romaine lettuce instead of iceberg lettuce which gave it a nice and consistent crunch. Of note: burgers are consumed with a fork and knife in Europe, and given the size of this burger I would recommend cutting it in half before attempting to eat it with your hands. My only complaint is that they put way too much ketchup in my bacon burger. The twister fries (aka curly fries) are standard, fried and delicious. You could order various types of mayo as dipping sauce but I had them with ketchup. Service: 2/5 This place does takes reservations which is unfortunate because it is really popular and you end up having a large crowd waiting for tables while there are plenty of tables that have been reserved. Hence, my advice is to make reservations if you can. Otherwise, arrive before popular meal times (1pm and 6pm). Also unfortunate is that this place is understaffed. There is an outside courtyard and barnhouse that has additional seating, and our server was assigned to both these locations and several tables inside. We waited for 15 minutes and didn't see her so I had to go inside to find our server and ask for the bill. By the time she got to our table she was visibly stressed and ended up handing us the wrong bill. (advice: always double check your bill before paying) Atmosphere: 4/5 This place is very rustic and hip. We were seated in the outside barn and it had heat lamps and blankets which makes for a cosy and interesting experience. Inside all the tables were abuzz with people and you can tell that this is a popular location. Value: 4/5 It cost around 300 kr for 2 people, which isn't too bad considering Copenhagen. The burgers are huge and you will leave feeling quite full.

    Great place with plenty of outdoor seating (with rain coverage) in their courtyard for a bite to eat. The menu is simple - cow, chicken or veggie burgers with variations, choices for sides and dips. We ordered a bacon cheeseburger which was thick and served pink. I wrongly chose a whole grain bun, which was nice but a bit stiff so didn't hug my burger and salad so they just slid out. We also had a BBQ chicken burger which was also cooked very well and again, we chose the wrong bun - a white bun. What we actually should've ordered were the 'American Sweet' which is actually much like a soft brioche which is so hot right now as a burger bun! Service was friendly. All the waiters spoke English and the patrons were largely tourists like myself! Pop in if you need shelter from the rain and are hungry. I'm sure it's not the BEST burger Copenhagen has to offer as its only the first one I've tried here.

    The Governator
    Mark D.

    Three of us arrived and chose to sit on the roof top terrace. Instantly greeted by real friendly staff who seated us and ensured we were comfortable. I had the Governator, which totally terminated my hunger whilst a vegetarian friend of mine had the tree hugger...he said it was the best vegetarian burger he has had whilst in Copenhagen. The chilli fries were absolutely awesome with the perfect amount of crunch and chilli, which was all washed down with two jugs of dark and stormy cocktails! The roof top terrace had a relaxed atmosphere with bench seats that were covered in sheep skins and heat lamps that kept the chilled wind at bay. Great location for groups. I'll be back

    Best. Burgers. Ever. I had "The Governator," curly fries, and a draft beer, and I have to say it was the best burger I've had after years living in Europe and Scandinavia. You can't go wrong here. Good food, good atmosphere, and good prices. Definitely recommended. Just a tip, make a reservation. The line gets long quick.

    The governor
    Maria X.

    Considering the rest of the reviews here, I think this place was overrated. I have eaten much nicer burgers than this. The size of the burgers is big anyway and the price is OK. The taste was nothing special though and the service was mediocre. We ordered the governor and the illegal.

    Love the branding in the burger buns
    Ajay R.

    Very good quality food and great portion sizes. Good value for money. I had the Governator burger with chilli fries, leaving no room to try a dessert.

    Aside from loving the name, the food is good. It's not the best burger I've had, but not bad at all. Service was ok.

Nice burger though, and a tasty smash-style gasoline sauce. Good portion on the crispy, crinkle fries (although a tad salty for me) and a unique and refreshing lemonade.

    Holy cow (pun intended) the burgers here are not only tasty but they are pricey! If you enjoy a…read moregreat flat top smash on your meat, I can highly recommend grabbing a bite at a Gasoline Grill. This is a small chain that appears to have a good following in Denmark. It reminds me a bit like In N Out Burgers of California fame. The menu is limited and they try to offer a few things other than burgers but really, if you don't like burgers or are a vegetarian, I'm not sure why you would choose to eat here. For those of us who are solid carnivores, this place is the bomb for a messy, smashed patty style burger. Did I mention messy? These are juice dripping down your chin kind of messy from a combination of velvety beef fat mixed with burger sauce (Gasoline Grill's version of thousand island dressing). They top their burgers with cheese if you want it, some red onion and a few sweet, crinkle cut pickles all surrounded by a soft brioche style bun. Simple but deeply satisfying. Their fries are institutionally frozen crinkle cuts, fried and hand salted before bagging. They are good but definitely play distant second to their burgers. The downsides here are they are limited on service and on places to eat. This location at 1:30pm had 2 cooks and a cashier promoting a lineup out the door. At one point I watched 1 cook make their own lunch and leave for the back room to eat and the cashier was in and out of the back trying to eat as well in between taking orders. That left 1 poor guy manning the entire kitchen with lots of customers waiting. I suppose that they can get away with it because no one in the line left but it makes for a really inefficient and long wait for lunch. The other issue is that there is absolutely nowhere to sit and eat. There is a narrow shelf like counter on one wall of the restaurant that can accommodate maybe 8 or 10 people standing shoulder to shoulder sardine style eating while facing the wall. No seats outside and this particular location really has nowhere close that would be appropriate to sit and enjoy lunch so there were people who were eating while sitting on the curb, or using the stone wall across the street by a set of bike racks to lay their lunch on. Again, it seems to work as nobody left because of it, but it is a really inconvenient way to try to eat a fairy messy burger and a bad look for the neighborhood. Would it kill them to put a few small tables and chairs around? It seemed like all the locals were very happy so maybe this is just my elitist American entitlement showing through as a bias. Finally, the prices here are not cheap. I think everything in Denmark is not cheap but really this is simply a cheeseburger and fries. I added a beer to that and my lunch was about US$29! For that money, the food was simple and the environment was not great since you had to eat in a rush standing up and then clear out. It probably works better late at night if you are drunk and don't care, but for the majority of people trying to grab lunch during a workday, this would not rank high on my list of places to go unless you were really dying for a great cheeseburger. Four stars for the burger and three stars for everything else. That gets them overall 3.5 stars, but since I can't give them half a star, I will round them up. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed what I had here and recommend it for a great smash burger if you are not on a budget.

I'm from the US and would call it the same as In n Out or Shake Shack- It's genuinely the same thing but if you add on tik tok glaze apparently that costs you an extra five bucks. it's fine but just get a hot dog on the street for a third of the price... you get the same result: good but not great. Service WAS GREAT though, cannot knock them on that. Unfortunately it's just an American meal made by non-Americans, save your money.

    Ranked as the 6th best burger in the world by Food and Wine magazine in 2024 ("Organic beef…read morecheeseburger with onions, pickles, and a house Gasoline Sauce. $16 "), the Gasoline Grill hamburger restaurant has multiple locations throughout Denmark. It's one of those things where I was glad I stopped by, but didn't really experience anything with the food or ambiance that would make me recommend this as a out-of-the way stop that the ranking would seem to suggest. This one is the original, using the station building as a walk-up window with the kitchen inside. They have a few picnic tables on the side for outdoor dining, and I do think that it's important to eat the burger as soon as possible. The interesting thing is that it is still a working gas station, with an island with multiple pumps dispensing petrol (which I didn't see being used during my wait) and some electric charging stations (which was actively being used). I was able to place my order (nothing customized, just wanted exactly as they described after about a 10 minute wait, got my lemonade right away, and waited another 10 minutes to get my food (everything is made-to-order). The cheeseburger was 110 DKK, fries was 40, lemonade was 35, and dipping sauce was 10 with 10 off for being a combo. So total was 185 DKK (about $28.88 in USD). The process and food reminded me very much of a Shake Shack, with the young workers working together to produce well-made smashburgers using great ingredients. The color scheme reminds me of a Wingstop, though. I squeezed between a couple of single diners and dug in. The burger was good, with that loose smash burger quality. It came with a mayo based thousand island like sauce (their gasoline sauce), and had tomato, pickles, red onion slices, and a gooey, plentiful cheese. The lemonade was good, and the hint of elderflower made it memorable. The crinkle fries were good, well done fried which I appreciate. Ate the meal fast before my hands started to freeze up, tossed the remains in the gas station islands garbage bin and was on my way. I really do think a food like this is all about where you eat it...if on an airplane, or at a ballpark, or at the beach...yeah, I could see the appeal. But at a gas station in freezing weather on a picnic table...not so much.
