Hold The ‘Cheese’ on This Excellent Vegan Burger – Freddy & Hicks at Platform – Glasgow

A really great veggie burger is a hard thing to come by. Only one that I’ve ever eaten has made me not think about how I’d rather be eating a juicy cheeseburger instead – the $6 Superiority Burger in New York City. Even the much-hyped Impossible Burger was a huge let down. I’m always wary […]

James vs. The Impossible Burger

A vegan burger that looks, smells and tastes just like beef? A meatless burger that will fool even the most hardcore meat eaters? That’s what the Bill Gates-backed, San Francisco-developed Impossible Burger has been touted as by many. I’d seen many Instagram photos and blog posts by people who had eaten the burger. Photos of […]

GRILLING GLASGOW (2017): A documentary on Glasgow’s burger scene. Available now. Watch here!

Last year I took part in a documentary on Glasgow’s burger scene along with many chefs, restaurant owners and other foodies. The documentary examines and celebrates Glasgow’s love for the humble burger and it’ll leave you feeling HUNGRY! I must admit, I got a tad emotional watching it! Seeing how far our own little site […]

Rib-Eye Burger – Porter & Rye, Glasgow

It can be hard finding a last minute table in Finnieston on a Saturday night; however, with burger cravings setting in, we decided to head there in a taxi and do the impossible. Walking through the door at Porter & Rye, my hopes appeared to be dashed as the restaurant was, understandably, completely packed. I […]

The Cult Burger / NYC Burger – El Perro Negro Kitchen Takeover at Brewdog, Glasgow

Back in 2014, we picked El Perro Negro’s ‘Top Dog’ burger as the best in Glasgow. It had everything that I look for in a burger. Quality ingredients, robust flavour not too complicated. I could pick it up and eat it without making a mess. It was all about quality over quantity. Given that I […]

The Durty Burger – Bar Bloc, Glasgow

For years, Bloc has been one of my favourite wee bars in Glasgow. It was a regular haunt of mine during my days as a student and has remained one of my favourite places to kick off a night out or just to grab some lunch and a quick beer. Despite my love for the […]

Brel Burger – Brel, Glasgow

Whenever there’s a heatwave in Glasgow, you can be certain that pretty much every bar with an outdoor seating area is going to be absolutely jam-packed with people. During our recent visit to Ashton Lane, Brel was no different. We had reserved a table a couple of days prior to our visit and luckily for […]

World Tour: Southwest Burger – Strip Burger, Las Vegas

I was lucky enough to be able to celebrate my 30th birthday during my time in Las Vegas. On the morning of my birthday, we had decided to start the day by doing the Stratosphere hotel Sky Jump. After leaping from almost 1,000 feat in the air and being terrified in the process, we were […]

Faktory Burger / Bacon & Brie Burger – The Faktory, Glasgow

The Faktory is the latest student hangout to open its doors in Glasgow’s West end; located on Byres road, just minutes walk from Kelvinhall subway station. Inside, the bar is made up of a few booths, tables and chairs scattered around a large open dance floor space and there’s a well stocked bar too. It’s […]

The Big Mackie Burger / The Smokey Juan – Broadcast, Glasgow

As one of Glasgow most-loved gig venues and friendly bars, the Captain’s Rest has been sorely missed by many since it’s closure; however, the team behind the bar have returned with it’s successor – Broadcast, located on the busy Sauchiehall street – they’ve even kept the long-running ‘Captain’s Quiz Night’ going, that was popular among […]
