Outstanding smash burger!
Having been told about this place by a buddy it was with great excitement I drove 400 miles from Cornwall to get one! (I did have a job on in Deal to be fair) the lady in the shop told me I wouldn’t be disappointed and I wasn’t
Well worth the trip and great value on the price. 100% satisfied
Popped by this place when I saw the 4.9* reviews from almost 1000 reviewers. Sadly it didn’t live up to the hype, and as suspected we were asked to give a google review if we enjoyed the meal, hence the outstanding score here.
Don’t get me wrong the food was decent, we went for the double smash burger to try the core offering and enjoyed it, but it came nowhere near the best burgers I’ve had in London (Bleecker topping that list). It came closest to a Five Guys burger, which I enjoy and would put a little ahead of this one.
The cajun fries were very good though, about as good as you can hope for at a burger place, so were the star of the show, hence the 4* rating.
If you want a decent burger and great fries this is a good independent spot, but just don’t get caught up in the rating hype, it’s not what it seems.
EDIT: Thought I’d post a quick update as I can’t respond to the owners comment any other way.
I appreciate that taste is subjective, and it seems the vast majority are massive fans of this place. I enjoyed the meal and will always respect an independent store looking to pursue excellence, which it’s clear the folks here do. I hope it continues to succeed and impress, and maybe one day I’ll return to try another burger, the chips were remarkable after all.
I think my review is fair enough though, a shame that it touched a nerve. Everyone has an opinion, and I was asked to give one here so I have. The burger here was good and enjoyable but to my taste wasn’t remarkable, hence the 4*. I may have had too lofty expectations, or differing taste, but I feel I’ve been fair in my review. It’s totally fair to ask for reviews if I’ve enjoyed it, and equally fair for me to mention that was part of my experience. I could have spitefully given a low score to try to bring the 4.9 closer to my estimate, but that would be egotistical and unfair. I think my review struck a fair balance, and was less critical than the owners reply. Others may disagree.
Either way if you’re into burgers and in the area you should check it out, but I probably won’t be making a special trip to go for round two.
One of the BEST burgers I've ever eaten! I went for the Smash as I love classics and it didn't disappoint. Sometimes burgers can be a bit cold but this was freshly cooked in front of us and came out piping hot. The strawberry milkshake was delicious too - definitely worth ordering if you love thick shakes! The staff were fantastic the whole time, really friendly and welcoming - highly recommend!
amazing burger and delicious cajun fries
burgers are light and not too heavy but good portuon size.
the staff were really lovly and I even got to play street fighter while i waited.
highly recommend
As previous reviews have said, lovely staff and just amazing burgers. Amazing. Couldn't choose what to have but had the Limitless and would highly recommend, especially with 2 patties. And order the black garlic mayo!! Only negative was the music playing inside, that was pretty awful. Just avoid that by ordering takeaway, perfect solution. Would love to go again, if only I lived in Broadstairs/Whitstable.
The best burger I’ve had for some time, Morgan was really helpful and on point with customer service point of view and David just did rest of the magic with the burger I had. I must salute you guys for making food with so much passion and the milkshake is cherry on top…. Thank you so much for the best meal guys.
Absolutely fantastic place to have a decent burger and fries. Fantastic atmosphere and amazing and very welcoming staff. Wish I knew about this place before. Am definitely coming again!! (and I've already spread the word!)
Absolutely amazing for a classic burger, exceeded expectations massively. Went for the smash burger and chicken mayo with chips and two shakes. Went down an absolute treat. Servers were amazing too, got food out fast considering it was a busy evening, waited about 10-15 minutes. Everything tastes so good when fresh! Great value for money for the size and taste. Chips were extra crispy and soft inside too. Yum!
I had the best burger of my life here!
Nice service, I'll be back when I'm in England! hello from Hungary
Great burger! Staff were very friendly and attentive. The black Garlic Mayo sauce was outstanding!
