This burger place specialises in gourmet pork burgers, awesome! Their menu contains cheekily-named choices like the Elvisu (bacon, peanut butter and jelly), and the Hadoken – pork patty topped with spicy Asian chilli con carne, onions, cheese and bacon bits.

If you are not a fan of pork, not to worry. There’s Fowl Play, the only chicken burger on the menu. And it tastes great!

Don’t be alarmed, they may be blur but when it comes to burgers, they got it all right. Inspired by their love for good burgers (and beer), this place gives you affordable and mouth-watering burgers.

Their Prime Beef burger is a must-try. It is made up of well-seasoned 100% US pure beef patty topped with a juicy portobello, fresh tomato, gruyere cheese, and homemade truffle mayo. If that’s not enough to fill your tummy, you have sides of potato salad and a balsamic-dressed salad.

I think their name should be well-cooked ends but that’s for another day. Their pulled pork burger is one of the best ever. If you haven’t tried it, you really should.

Their Pulled Pork Sanger has cheese, pickled jalapenos, red cabbage slaw, tangy chipotle aioli and smoky, juicy, tender pork shoulder that’s been cooked for ten hours and lovingly pulled between two Brioche buns. If this doesn’t make your mouth water, nothing else will.

Their Chicken Thigh Burger comes with fried enoki mushrooms and kaffir-lime mayo that leave a savoury taste in your mouth. Their crispy fish burger is a must-try too with its crunchy patty. Also, do not leave without trying their Mentaiko Fries, they taste amazing.

Also, a must-try is the Rambo where the lamb is cooked to tender perfection and paired with eggplant pickle & cucumber aioli. Be sure to try their Naughty Fries as well which are hand-cut chips covered by spicy bearnaise sauce, beef chilli and parmesan.

This unpretentious place lets you eat burgers with your hands, and lick the sauce off your fingers as you want without being judged. For those of you who like a little mess.

The Messy Mexican is the best choice. The beef patty is drenched in an amazing chilli con carne (Mexican beef chilli). Do not be surprised if you find yourself licking the plate to get every last drop. For those who prefer a classic burger, the No. 36 is perfect.
