The Burger Joint

We are big fans of The Burger Joint, visiting the Whiteladies Road branch every now again for a soft brioche bun filled with chicken and chorizo. We were visiting a bike shop a few doors down from this particular branch, so decided to stay for dinner. We weren’t disappointed, as the food was good (even though our order was ever-​so-​slightly wrong) and there was plenty of it.
We replaced our regular trips to Nando’s with The Burger Joint mainly because you get better value for money (our Nando’s meals were getting smaller and smaller). Yet, as good as this branch is, we prefer the one on Whiteladies Road because it feels cosier and has a nice vibe to it.

My friend was lucky enough to win tickets for a free burger before this place even opened and invited lucky me to go with her for lunch, I took my 13 month old baby along as well.
The service was excellent, the staff were very friendly, welcoming and very helpful to me with my buggy — there are some steep steps to get up to get into the building but someone came and helped me in (not sure how wheelchair users will get in but I’m sure they’ll have that covered)
I opted for the straightforward beef burger and my friend went for the wild boar burger, I had pulled pork and cheddar cheese as a topping (pulled pork on a burger it would turn out is delicious)
I loved the fact that you got free refills on soft drinks, left there buzzing having drunk way too much coke!
I ordered corn On he cob as a side as my baby loves it and also some hash browns.
The only thing stopping me from giving this 5 stars was the chips, we went for hand cut chips which were more like wedges than chips and not that nice, next time I will go for fries though and maybe I’ll update this with an additional star.
I also do fear that on a busy week day lunch time the place may become too rammed up with buggies as north street is parent central, I’m sure the management will be able to come up with an innovative solution though.
All in all a very nice meal, we didn’t pay but if we had I would have come away feeling that I had got very good value for money.

This place does exactly what it says on the tin… Burgers! And good ones at that!
This is a brand new restaurant open this weekend, they have a sister restaurant on Whiteladies road (just a few miles away) which has really taken off, so it seems like the natural thing for them to do.
So tonight was really busy, pretty much every table taken, this didn’t matter though we were shown straight to our table and given menus.
You place your orders on tick box forms, and then give them back to the waiting staff. There’s loads to chose from with out being over whelmed. Basically you chose your meat (or veggie burger) there’s about 8 options inc lamb, chicken etc. then an extra filling, 2 sauces and a side all for around £8, bargain!
Food was delivered to the table within 10 minutes, I would highly recommend the 6oz beef burger, grilled bacon and blue cheese with a side of fries, yummy!!! My friend had the 6oz beef, Cheddar and onion rings which look equally delicious and somewhat mouth watering!
Great atmosphere, friendly staff and the service was faultless. I really like the décor, clean, crisp and modern with no gimmicks which is a refreshing change to some other burger places around. They have an out side decked sitting area at the front, which considering this place is on a bustling high street really catches your eye and quiet inviting.
Great for couples and small groups, I probably wouldn’t want to take a big group of rowdy friends, apart from anything else they probably wouldn’t fit many in.
I would definitely go back and recommend to others.
