Uncle Sams

[northstandnorth]

Funny you should say that been thinking about one of these as a treat at work, I take it they are very good ?

trust me Mr hut, due to having been required to stay close to a certain place in london all of last week. I had 2 of their burgers(and witnessed another dozen being consumed by my table mates) and a salad on seperate days and apart from a VERY good Pacific resteraunt they smash all other franchised food outlets,oh, and the New Zeland Lager they serve is great too.

 

[SirDouglasLoft]

Yeah, but Mr. Dazo, what flavour do you go for?

Looks like a visit to Bloomsbury Square is on the cards then.

Grubbs for me.

Golden Grill in Hove and that awful GFC chicken place also get my money.

Grubbs is SOOOOO much better and there's one just off Palmeira Square.

I went to the Grubbs on London Road/Grand Parade recently and was SERIOUSLY disappointed. I went again as I was convinced it was a blip. Sadly not. Rubbery, crappy burgers, shit bap, pathetic brown lettuce, crap helpings of garlic mayo and mushrooms. Unfortunately, Grubbs, a Brighton institution is dead.

If you want to go to the GBK, use this...

The burgers are VERY good, but when you add on the chips (at £2.75 ), the prices are a piss take and I wouldn't go there if it weren't for offers such as the above.

thats the one I used, just round from queens square but the Hare and tortoise(or the other way round) is the Very srong competition in a top value Japanese/Chinese/Pacific way.

GBK is very good, but overpriced considering you have to buy chips extra and they aren't cheap, neither is the bottled beer. So for me Uncle Sam/Grubbs still in there due to the value score. Im a Grubbs fan myself and do hope Saville's just been have bad luck. another shout is All Bar One, medium (can be dry well done) with bacon and mushroom they are very good and wash it down with an Erdinger or Paulaner. ~£7-8 for burger and chips + ~£3.50 for pint of decent beer means they are currently top of the burger pops.

Come on. Now we both know thats just not true, is it Alan.

'Tis true. They are SHIT.

I just fear your quality threshold is far too low.

Face it TLO, you're a burger snob. I've a good mind to bar you from my Uncle Sams franchises at Falmer

Good call! Have used the vouchers in GBK before and they just about make the excellent burgers affordable, by the time you add on the chips and the beers.

Gourmet Burger King is the biggest load of shit ever, designed by some Tarquins in Marketing. My local one (in Lordship Lane, home of the Harriet Harman Organic Lesbian Gang) is like a Nathan Barley Magnet.

The other one in Greenwich replaced a pie and mash institution in the relentless homogenisation of the town by corporate chains, sadly missed by all except Japanese tourists and fashion victims with more money than sense.

The burgers are nice though. Its just the 'brand' I can't stand. Give me a burger in London Road served by someone who has been chasing the dragon in the bogs 5 minutes before, surrounded by fliers for hopeless bands, any day.

Burger Off has got to have a mention on this thread, they're quality

GFC Shish kebabs are amazing, they marinade the lamb in something that makes it proper nice
