You can keep your gourmet burgers and I will have a Grubbs regular burger any time.....................if they still exist.

Yeah they went downhill FAST. I've been in there before and it's been incredibly busy so maybe they've become too popular for their own good.

Someone on here recommended Smoque at the top of Islingword a while back. I popped by to test out a burger, and won't be going back.

I've only had Smoque delivered and it's been naff every time, not sure what all the fuss is about! Decent hot dog though.

Does anyone actually like brioche buns with a burger? They (and the word 'gourmet' in the description) turn me right off choosing even the most attractive sounding burger.

I like them and they can work. Buns (2nd best burger in Berlin) uses a brioche. The Bird uses a dry bland muffin which I prefer.

Dunno if anyone's mentioned it earlier in this thread but Naz who used to have his van at the entrance to wickes/ staples/ toolstation in Hove is now at Hove Town hall.

Proper burgers.

The best burger I have had is from just outside Kings Cross. Can't remember name of the place but just amazing.

Don't think so. A food stall type thing just outside the station. Something dogs?

Edit: Coffee Dogs. Although, finding it on 'Burger Anarchy', it has a poor review. Oh well.

Disgusting, the contents of that bun remind me of open heart surgery.

Any views on a good burger place near Piccadilly Circus? Patty&Bun seems to get good reviews?

Not sure the close up photography does the food justice.

It looks like a scene from 'Casualty'.

Who gives about Casualty. That plate makes HT look immensely provincial, as if he's moved out of Berlin and into White Ribbon

I used to love going to Samsons in St. Georges Road, Kemp Town. Brighton's original gourmet burger joint.

They did a brilliant bacon and blue cheese burger.

Loved that place........Tuckers was pretty good too.

We went to http://www.edseasydiner.com/our-food/ Leicester Square.

I don't imagine for one minute it holds a candle to any of the burgers mentioned on this thread.
But it's a little diner, down a side street, round the corner from a massive TGI Friday's, which in my book gives it some brownie points.

Ed's is a massive chain of American diners, available in all service stations, there's one in Churchill Square too.
