Downtown burgers with a kitchen open till 3am

Forget the coastal view spots. Roots built its name on burgers and shareable boards, not cocktails, on Jorge Washington near the Edificio Ícono. That's the twist in a city where bars near the water usually lead with the view.

The kitchen runs until 3am on weekends, which makes it the after-hours fallback once other Centro bars shut. No rooftop, no sea view, just an easy walk from downtown.

One of the best burgers in Antofagasta. Very nice place, good service, and a great variety. They don't have vegetarian burger options on the menu, but if you ask, they might be able to suggest a substitution (mushrooms). The Mexican burger is the best.

We went as a family to enjoy a sharing platter and juices. When the platter arrived, the fries tasted like burnt oil; that was the only issue. The place is small, suitable for groups of no more than four people. It has good music, nice restrooms, and good service. The only downside is that the bar is right there, so when they turn on the juice blender, it's incredibly noisy.

📍 Roots Bar – Antofagasta Located in the heart of Antofagasta, Roots Bar has established itself as a strategic spot for a well-deserved break. Its location makes it a perfect place for a relaxed lunch or an after-work escape without straying too far from the city's hustle and bustle. ⭐ Service and Atmosphere The service was 5-star. Although we visited during lunchtime and it wasn't very busy, the service was attentive, quick, and friendly, without any unnecessary rush. The music complemented the moment well—present, but without intruding on the conversation—creating a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. And a special mention for the beer 🍺: the Cuello Negro was perfectly chilled. Refreshing, well-poured, and perfect for these days when the Antofagasta heat is relentless. That detail makes a big difference. 🍔 The Dining Experience We ordered the Roots Burger, accompanied by homemade fries. The potatoes—golden, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside—did taste freshly made, nothing like those soulless frozen fries. As a nice extra touch, we added cheddar cheese as a topping, elevating the dish with that creamy contrast that melts perfectly with the meat and potatoes. A simple but strategic upgrade. Overall, a great place to share with friends; I'll definitely have to visit the restaurant at night!

They have amazing Cuello Negri beer, the service is spectacular, Harmin (I think) served us and he was super attentive, the quesadillas are highly recommended…
