Burgas 2027

Eat like a local

In shortFrom paper cones of fried sprats to mussels and rakia — what to eat and drink in Burgas during Eurovision 2027, with the two Happy Bar & Grill restaurants tagged on the map.

The menu

Fried sprats
The unofficial dish of the Bulgarian seaside: a paper cone of tiny crisp-fried fish, eaten whole, with lemon and cold beer. The messier the setting, the better they taste.
Black Sea mussels
Farmed along the rocky stretches of the bay — steamed in white wine, baked with cheese, or as a rich mussel rice. A pot with a sea view is a Burgas ritual.
Horse mackerel & turbot
Safrid is the everyday grilled fish, cheap and delicious; kalkan is the prized one. Both are best simply grilled with lemon.
Fish soup
A clear, lemony broth that fishermen swear cures everything — including the morning after a Eurovision party.

A guaranteed good table

The two Happys

Happy Bar & Grill is Bulgaria's best-loved restaurant chain — dependable grill, salads, sushi and seafood with quick, cheerful service. Burgas has two of them, both tagged below, and either one is a safe bet when the group can't decide.

City centre
Happy Bar & Grill — Center
The downtown Happy, right by the main pedestrian streets — handy before an evening on Aleksandrovska.
Near the Sea Garden
Happy Bar & Grill — Lazur
The Lazur-quarter Happy by the northern end of the Sea Garden — grab a table after a beach day or a sunset walk on the pier.
