Burgers 12:12 - Nov 27 with 5964 viewsRangersDave

Hi everyone,

Just popped into Maccy D's for a convenience burger and was shocked to find that their burgers are like 1mm wafers, and over all the burger and bun is around 25% smaller for the same money. in relation to the one i had last week!

Anyway, i thought a burger thread on here was needed, so i can canvas you all as to your thoughts regarding your best fast food, artisan, value burger around.

There used to be a great place in Liverpool that was an artisan place and called 'Almost famous' and had great beers, great drinks for the kids, and above all else fantastic burgers

Locations please and opinions on your favourite place

I always loved Wendy's and now always stop off in Stratford (shit hole that it is) on my way through to pick one up on the odd occasion I'm out that way. Was much easier when they had a branch on Oxford St when I was little!


They used to have one on Cambridge circus around 1982, and i was mesmerised by the square patties and quick service. Burger wasnt bad either.

The last time I had a McDs I couldn't believe how thin the burger patty was. What a load of shit.

Five Guys are ace.

That said, smash up a burger and get it on the BBQ. Top with fried onions and a bullshit cheese slice. Wrap it all in foil for a few mins before you tuck in. Splendid.

Always enjoyed a burger but rarely eat them. Don't need the gourmet stuff nor the type that need a cocktail stick to hold together, a simple patty, onions (close to raw), pickle, with maybe couple of ingredients depending upon my mood, will suffice.
The stuff served from trailers around football stadiums are crap; but I always enjoy them, they're just right for the day.
I remember a good first hand example of the nations economy about forty years ago when we travelled to Anfield and I paid 32p for one outside the Kop, the previous weekend I'd handed over a quid on the South Africa Rd for pretty much the same product. Think we lost 3 - 0.

I used to frequent a Wendy's in Hounslow when I worked there in the 90's – really really good.

A mate said recently that he'd had one somewhere, so they must be coming back.

Beer and Burger in King's Cross is worth a shout. They do what it says on the tin with a decent range of burgers and a good rotation of craft beers.

Like I said, there's one in Stratford and has been for a couple of years. Apart from that, there's one in Cirencester or something that my brother excitedly photographed as he was staying at a hotel across the way from it. Dunno of any more so it doesn't seem a full throttle relaunch

Wendy's in Western Road Brighton opened last year. Just as good as ever . Just looked at the website. 40 locations.

I am not often seen in MacDo but, on a recent journey, it was almost the only option (Taunton Deane services). I cannot remember exactly the name of the burger but I think it was a 'Double Big Mac' (??) Not expensive. Tasted reasonably OK. But, I could not work out how to eat it without half of the contents falling out of the burger and running down my chin and clothes.
No plates. No cutlery. Genuine question: how does one eat such a thing?


Oh dear. No answer to this.

There's a Wendy's in Uxbridge town centre.

From the burger chains, I like GBK. The Taxi Driver does the biz for me.

On the more upmarket side, a trip to Hush in Holborn for their Steak Canadien burger is recommended.

I don't have burgers often but recently, on a night out with my mates, I was persuaded to go to a KFC.

I kid you not, I thought the chicken burger I had was genuinely decent 👌

"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."

I've been there, was a good burger. I don't drink so the beer bit is wasted on me but burger is recommended.

Not burgers, but I used to eat the hotdogs from the dodgy vendors up london if I was ever worse for wear back in the day. I reckon I must be immune to anything

I've always enjoyed a kebab shop quarter pounder with chilli sauce on it. Simple but effective. Bap must be toasted.

Most other burgers I just cook at home these days - Waitrose has got some venison burgers which are delicious and, apparently, quite healthy!

Starting to feel like a right yokel, since absolutely none of these options (not even Burger King) functions in my town, though there is one (and even a 5 Guys apparently) in Gloucester if I'm willing to drive half an hour (and spend another quarter of an hour either looking for a parking space, or walking from wherever I have parked to get to the actual burger bar.)

Most people round here are, however, no longer frightened of electricity and incidents involving Wicker Men are relatively rare. Though some say that's due to the lack of virgins.

Now that looks good.

A few years ago, me and tother half were on our way to Kenya for a holiday, and travelled to London From ooooop north to show her some of the sights in Leicester Square as she'd never been.

Hungry, we walked into a place with an out door seating area, and ordered 2 burgers and fries, a gin for her, and a Brasilian beer for me.

very nice it all was, except the bill was £59.75 ........ then i realise i'd walked into Marco Pierre Whites place by accident.

Food was scrummy though.

Burger King do movie tie in burgers and a few years back Batman the dark night had a tie in and I think it was called the "Dark Whopper" quite liked that one.

Little place off the back of Blackrock beach in Cornwall did good fare, local beef, in house handmade burgers real cheese, lettuce that looked edible. Can't confirm if brioche was in use though.

Always partial to Byron, but they have seriously reduced the number of outlets after over expanding. Went to their Coventry garden restaurant a few months back and they still taste great although thw size of the burger had seemed to reduce in size.

Am trying the Gordon Ramsey street burger next week. Will.report back.
