Real Burger World

[brixtonvilla]

tarannau: that stands to reason.

Structaural: I will know to avoid now, sounds diabolical.

There is a posh burger place in Inverness Street, Camden which always gets very good reviews. It's not one of the chains, can anyone recall it's name? French-sounding irrc.

Hache? Have heard it's really good.

 

[dash_two]

Yes that is it! Hache.

 

[guinnessdrinker]

A veggie one.

we're talking about real burgers.

 

[chio]

I knew I hadn't imagined it

It's excellent.

You can even choose whether you want 'orrible fat chips or delicious thin fries.

 

[TopCat]

I bet their business plan was funny.

Burgers are rubbish.

Pie's are nice.

Apparently the Handmade Burger Co. Restuarant took it over and opened their second store in Solihull in 2007

I thought the food in RBW was really good. Hache, the food was ok, but service very iffy. I used to work right near there and we were regulars and tried work lunches there a few times, even pre-ordering we never got out of there in under 90 mins not good for weekday lunch.

If you go to Gormet Burgers, check out the kids meal, 2 courses and a side for less than an adult burger and it includes a junior milk shake!

 

[Badgers]

GBK is expensive, but worth it if you want to splash out. The milkshakes are even better

What I really miss is Spud-U-Like. They should be in every town.

I think GBK is shite but agree on Spud-U-Like

I think GBK is shite, too. Went once. Burger completely soggy and far too big, onion rings, way overseasoned, corn on the cob - flat cold. And £20 quid FFS! I'd rather go to for a proper kebab up Green Lanes, £8 for three courses, large lamb shish with rice and salad, much better value.

Best burger is at the Fox pub in Willian (near Letchworth). So locally sourced the cattle are in the field across the road.

GBk is horrible, overpriced, and failing. I went in the Kingston one a few weeks ago on a friday night, there was only us and one other party in there I would have rather gone to Bryon...much nicer, plus GBK FEELS really cheap, when it isn't actually that cheap!!!

 

[Badgers]

GBK is nearly as hateful as Nandos

Fine Burger on Upper St do a pretty good burger. Especially if you get it rare. And more often than not there is a man handing out buy one get one free vouchers in the street.

Never been but £10 is expensive for cow mince in bread, fried potato and crap wine.

 

[Badgers]

That is the burger picture from the GBK website ^

It looks small and crap for £8.
Also food is rarely served as well as the menu photo.

A good friend said recently that a good burger can easily be as fine as a good steak, I'm inclined to agree, even if he is a twat

It is but I would pay a high price for a good burger. Like the 5 dollar shake in Pulp Fiction

 

[100% masahiko]

burger as good as steak? 5 dollar shake ))

In that case, might as go full out with Veal and foi gras burger!!!
In all seriousness, that is something I'd eat...

I went there for the first time last week and wondered what the fuss was about? The chicken is ok, but nothing special. Its just fast food but with marginally better intrrior design.

 

[Biddlybee]

Random thread to bump, but I had one of the best burgers ever last week

What was it? Where? How much?

 

[Biddlybee]

What: Burger (local happy meat) with cheddar and smoked bacon, coleslaw and chips on the side.
Where: St.Ives
How much: I didn't pay, but it wasn't pricey

I'm envious now...and curious...and potentially hungry...may even make one with blue cheese...
