About Holy Burger
Holy Burger started in 2013 without an address, as an events brand with a social mission and, in its own words, burger DNA. A year and a half later it moved into a tiny, industrial-looking space at number 527 Rua Dr. Cesário Mota Júnior in Vila Buarque, in the old centre of São Paulo. A renovation in 2019 gave it two handsome counters, one for the bar and one around the open kitchen, more seats and a new menu by chef Filipe Fernandes. It calls itself “the classic of the centre”.
