Who makes the best burgers in London?

[upsidedownwalrus]

Never tried GBK or any other of these la-dee-da places, but BK are the best of the conventional chains. They haven't reached CHina yet

There's a place up the road from me that does a 'canada burger' for a quid which is fantastic.

 

[electrogirl]

why is this a london thread? all these places are in other cities too.

anyways, i never rated tootsies, crap burgers and service.

i'm going to gbk next week, meant to be nice.

 

[subversplat]

Grubbs in Brighton, imo, which, although not "London", is worth visiting for

Otherwise Eds - I only went there a couple of times but enjoyed it in my carnivore days and I like the whole Americana Diner thing they've got going on

Is Gourmet Burger Bar the same as GBK in your poll?

Yes.

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

My local burger bar (keebabie) give me the guff something rotten.

But a GBK is to open 200 yards from my front door in 2 weeks, so shall check it out.

Until the Hamburger Union, except the cost

 

[Xanadu]

I think GBK is more expensive than hamburger union.

Oh dear I can see the weightloss program going tits up

I dont really have a favourite.

Quite like Smolensky's though

Smollensky's do do very nice burgers.Joanna's in Crystal Palace do really nice burgers too,but that's not their speciality.Never been to GBK and probably wouldn't.

 

[Xanadu]

Why not?

 

[wrysmile]

GBK is the goods and iirc - is run by Kiwis. They know their burgers man! Piled up with loads of salad like we do them in Oz as well.... yum!!

They do a kiwiburger with beetroot and egg. Not dared to try that yet...

 

[The Groke]

Yes.

*votes*

 

[The Groke]

I *heart* Peter Gordon.

We used to go to the Tapa Room for brunch quite a lot.

It was great.



Never got round to eating at the Providore though

Yeah, much as I love New Zealand and all it has to offer, they can fuck off with their beetroot and egg burger.

 

[foamy]

Hache in Camden is good for a burger as is the fooderie in Dogstar in Brixton. Apart from that, even though really wanting to try Burger Union and GBK etc i've never been past one whilst hungry

Don't let "'er indoors" hear you say that!

[jugularvein]

as foamy said haché is good. inversess street, camden. had a lovely meal there. took burger to the next level. crown and goose also in camden does a mean burger. they do a cuban burger where they put ground chorizo into the mix. taty as fuck and will have you burping wagner's ring cycle

 

[Adrenalinmonkey]

no burger in london can compare to those cooked on bubbas bbq pit in spitalfield market, its all great quality meat and the hot sauce he has is immense! wont share the recipe tho.... they have a duck burger which also rocks my world... shit dam, why read a thread like this in the middle of the night! this is frustrating!

Lucky 7's, Westbourne Park. The best and most expensive burger you can buy.

 

[Louloubelle]

Farmer's Market, Islington Green on a Sunday
Home made lamburgers
just divine
long queue though, but worth the wait

Finally got round to going to the Tapa Room yesterday. Very tasty!

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Ed's for me.

A Bacon and Egg Cheesebuger with Fries smothered in that Bright Yellow Cheese stuff and a Peanut Butter Malt Milkshake.

It only has 215 calories too.

Add banana to the shake and a chili con carne to the fries and you've got my favourite!

And why didn't you invite me.....?

 

[spitfire]

the diner in curtain road, shoreditch, v. good indeed.

I find the ones in GBK too big. good though.

 

[Blagsta]

Hamburger Union is dreadful. Overpriced tasteless shite. I prefer McDonalds.

 

[Janh]

None of the above, though I like to eat hamburgers when I'm out and have had some good ones, but I prefer my own homemade burgers.

Another vote for Haché in Camden here.

They do two different types of chips, too, so all you weirdoes who like fat chips can eat your greasy monstrosities, while we discerning fries fans can eat our narrow potatoey goodies.

Diner 77 in Cardiff always used to be good, but I've not been there for years Massive portions, though
