Your web browser.

Seriously, I am not joking as both Firefox and Chromium based browsers can open and display PDF files just as well as a dedicated application can now.

It's not free but I use Qoppa PDF Studio Pro. However, I also create and edit a lot of PDFs.

My favorite is Okular that is standard reader of KDE. I use it for many years now in Gnome environments (Ubuntu, later Mint Cinnamon).
