I'm hoping that it's just me and Mrs Voltz and our expectations and tastes being out of kilter with what is perceived as a quality burger

I'm hoping - - - but I doubt
 
So this happened.... at long last, very expensive but OMG it was lush.... £14:50 for burger (double bacon cheese and mushroom) fries and drink....

that looks like my perfect burger and chips...hope it was heavenly cos it looks it (can actually hear my stomach growling!)
 
i had a pretty delicious burger yesterday in a hotel....the patty was top notch the ingredients good but it wasnt divine....the cheese was tasteless and let it down....and the chips were disappointing, but we also ordered a full plate of darn good ricotta tortellini on the side. It was in a tomato chilli sauce, with lots of fresh parmesan and garlic bread. So it turned out alright, like.:)

I've been dithering about signing up for a jiu jitsu thing in Dublin next month and now I'm thinking I should go just so I can have one of these burgers you keep raving about afterwards :D
 
Been to long since I've had a burger that didn't come from somewhere like McDonald's. Not helped by the fact my gf is almost vegetarian and I now live in a village.

I need to find other people to go with me to consume a pound of meat in one sitting :hmm:
 
There's one of those 'five guys' places opened near me. They have sacks of spuds piled up in the restaurant, part of the decor like. That's the kind of down-to-earth, folksy touch that only a crack team of branding and marketing executives can give you.

The burger wrapped in tinfoil, the plain packaging, straightforward menu, the silly name; all of it is carefully calculated to look as unpretentious as possible. Everything except the prices.
 
Had a pretty good burger in Berlin on Tuesday at a place called 'The Pub', although I didn’t get the best picture (It my defence it was taken after a new litres of beer):

They also had beer pumps on your table and you ordered food from a screen :cool:

I had a burger at brgr&beer in Croydon on Friday. It was the best burger in Croydon imo. Thats not actually saying much though :D It was £8.95 for a cheeseburger with fries (rosemary or canjun). The portion of chips wasnt huge but it was a decent meal and the burger was tasty. Im a bit unsure about their choice of cheese (smoked ?cheddar) as I think it too some of the flavour away from the meat. My OH had their special, El gaucho - beef patty with guacamole, chimchurri and ...other stuff. He really enjoyed it.

I want to go back! They also do beer battered pickles?!
 
I tried,that new burger place in dublin. Menu is the size of businesscard, does three burgers only. And three kinds of fries. Got. V bad food poisoning and have been staying clear of burgers for weeks now
 
Someone suggested we go to the handmade burger co the other day. I was expecting a posh fast food outlet. You've still got to order at a counter,but it's brought to the counter.

It was nice but it was also 17 quid for a double burger chips and coke. Nice as it was I will not be going there again!

I got bad food poisoning at bunsen. I think. 3am exorcist sick. Its kept me off burgers for weeks now.

Mind you it was a tasty fucking burger. Better going in than out.
 
I had an amazing burger at the Parrot Inn just by Leith Hill. It had bacon and cheese,it was cooked to juicy perfection, and it came with a large amount of crispy chips. And it was only £10.95. Recommended if you're ever out that way.
