Just to let you know that I had a great burger from GBK this afternoon for lunch and my two lunch mates also agreed that it was delious!


I wouldn't have recommended them before, but after today's meal I think I'll make more of an effort to go there.


Another recommendation, a little out of ED, I'd suggest Grand Union pub in Camberwell.

Whilst I'd agree with you that Hache makes a grea burger, the focus was on best burgers n the area!

Can widen the area to eat a few more good recommendations?

Clapham isn't really much closer than central London (and harder to get to on public transport).


I would describe "the area" as East Dulwich and the immediately adjoining areas (West Dulwich, Dulwich Village, Peckham Rye, Nunhead, Forest Hill, Honor Oak, Herne Hill, Camberwell/Denmark Hill).

I do like a fresh "Whopper" in me every now & then


Oh god a double ( with ensuing brick-in-the-stomach effect is at times unbeatable ) is even better


But it's got to be hot off the grill and unwrapped a soon as it hits my hand, that way the bun is still crisp/toasted


Onions, mayo, cheese & charred beef, with tomato & lettuce, dill pickle mustard and ketchup


Sesame seeds stuck in the teeth


And that paper on the outside.....

it seems a similar question was featured on the telegraph website today, and while it's hardly the most revealing piece, it just so happens that two mentioned here are worthy of a mention

Well there's a thing - just come back from Draft House where my OH had the 'Smoke' Burger complete with chipotle mayo (Monday night is 'Hamburger Night' when you get a burger special of your choice and a pint of DH Light Lager for ?9.75 - incredibly good value).


I could have done with more chipotle but it has to be said the burger was moist, smoky and delicious with a proper bun (the kind that is made in the same way you make a bagel so it doesn't disintegrate when it gets steamy) and EITHER chips or fries (good point). A very good local burger imho.

titch juicy - Lucky Chip are opening a place in Soho called Slider Bar.


And MeatMarket opens soon in Covent Garden. Same people behind Meatliquor but the venue style is more that of fast food joint rather than restaurant.


There's a new app called burgerapp which is released tomorrow, I think - all about where to go for good burgers in London.


PS god knows why but a good burger is just fab. Deffo to do with the cheese, bun, burger combo. And gherkin. But never, ever bacon on top.

A good Meatliquor burger tastes like you imagine the very first McD's burgers tasted like back in the 50s - and you suddenly realise why people thought it was such an amazing food item that you wanted to keep eating them.

Sadly, billions and billions served later, it was watered down to the facsimile of a proper burger, McD's sell now.

It's the buns I don't like in McD's though. You need

i had it in my head that meatmarket had opened already. Looking forward to giving it a go. Be interesting to see how it's done, cos i love the gothic, deep south feel of meatliquor.

Doesn't the Bishop do Burger Nights on Mondays? Don't think they include chips though so a much better deal at Draft House. Nuns Head pub also does Burger Monday nights and include chips.

Thanks so much for the lovely feedback...we are v proud of our Hamburger Specials and just a quite word also for the Yolk (sister to the Smoke & Poke - an 80z char-grilled burger w/ a flat fried egg and glazed Hollandaise) We do (or at least we are supposed to) include fries or chips with our Hamburger Monday specials. Did you not get them??

What do you mean - either chips or fries? They are the same thing.

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      Our camera caught two folks doing this. One of them led me to believe the delivery driver was in on it as he left the package in a very odd place that the thief (who arrived about 10 minutes after from a direction where he could not have seen where the driver left it) went straight to it and took it - but he then dumped it halfway down the next road as clearly packets of freeze-dried food for a DofE award wasn't to his liking (karma sucks!). The second time a guy pulled his bike up in broad daylight, walked down to our door, opened the box, threw the empty box down and stuffed what he had found in his backpack and brazenly waved at the camera and then cycled off. Police asked us to upload his picture but we never heard anything back.

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      By Pugwash · Posted

      In the 1960s my husband went to a private day school, Although he was a bright child having won a couple of scholarships to other private schools, his father chose this particular one. He went from 11 - 14 years and left as unhappy with the set up which was based on ethnicity. All boys with both parents English were placed in the A stream regardless of academic ability, Boys with an Irish background were placed in B stream. All others were C streamed - this included boys with a Black or Asian  background, mixed race or mixed European background. His schooldays came to an end when he wished to learn Latin and he was told that no boy in C stream could participate in this subject. His father (not English) was very upset at this and withdrew him from the school and sent him  to a country boarding school.  The experiences he had with his schooling culminated in a breakdown of his mental health and several months in Maudsley. He had low self esteem and it took several decades for him to understand that it was the school system and not his ability which had failed him
