The Salt Lake City nightlife scene has exploded in recent years, but if you are looking for the best cocktail bars in downtown SLC, you need more than just a gin and tonic—you need an experiment. BURGER.LAB is a burger bar in downtown Salt Lake City with dope cocktails, built like a chemistry lab. We combine premium spirits, fresh ingredients, and a touch of molecular magic to create drinks you can’t get anywhere else, then pair them with burgers engineered to match.
We Don’t Pour, We Experiment
We are heavily inspired by the precision of science (and yes, a little bit of Breaking Bad). Our cocktail program is designed to surprise you.
- Smoke & Presentation: We use smoke infusion and unique glassware to engage all your senses, not just taste.
- The Classics, Perfected: Want a Smoked Old Fashioned or a scientifically balanced Margarita? We have refined the ratios to the milliliter.
- Experimental Menu: Ask our bartenders what they are testing this week. You might be the first to try our next big hit.
A Lounge for the 21+ Crowd
Sometimes you want a great drink without the chaos of a club or the noise of a sports bar. Burger Lab offers a sleek, dark, and modern lounge atmosphere. It’s the perfect spot to start your night downtown or cap off an evening with a nightcap.
Food That Matches the Drinks
Usually, you have to choose between a great bar and great food. Here, you get both. Our gourmet burgers are the perfect anchor for a night of drinking. High-fat, high-flavor food pairs perfectly with high-proof spirits.
