    Cheese burger' great! Sweet potato fries, I'm not a great fan. Very good nonetheless. Be prepared to wait a while for seating, and it's not fast food, so don't expect the burgers in 2 min.

    Best burgers in Dublin, hands down. You kind of have to be when that's the only thing on the menu. After the meat is grilled they steam the bun for a minute or so. Makes it so soft and delicious.

    By far THE best burgers in Dublin. The double with cheese and a side of shoestring fries are staple. Come hungry! The shakes are also great!!

    Easily the best burgers in Dublin. Sadly no veggie option. Shoestring and sweet potato fries are great. Get it cooked medium and it’s super juicy.

    Amazing burgers. Come here if you want a simple juicy burger. It's delicious and the best I had so far. I am not a big fan of jo burger because they always make the meat too dry.

    Great burgers. Minimal menu: Hamburger or Cheeseburger, both also offered as doubles and different fries. Often crowded - expect waiting, especially with larger groups.

    One of the rare places in Dublin where you can chose how ur burger meat is cooked. Priceless. Perfect for any time if the day. Whatever you do, dont miss the chocolate milkshake.

    Great burgers, chips and milkshakes. Very simple menu. They take bookings, but you do not need to wait too long, if in small group..

    Quite possibly the best burger I've ever had. Salty. Simple, straight forward menu. Small but nice selection of craft beers.

    Get burgers done medium well. Getting them medium rare/medium is delish, but you need a bit more firmness for a burger imo. Medium well is perfect.

    Order the single cheese burger with extra cheese. Double is too big, not as enjoyable as the single. Milkshake a must, not mad on chips

    Excellent burgers! Warning: gluten-free option isn't coeliac friendly. Double-warning: double burger is a fat stack of yum.

    In my opinion, the best burger in town. But if you don't like your burger red, ask for at least a well done one.

    Shakes are fantastic- definitely get one. Burgers and fries are tasty- sometimes a long wait, but it is worth it

    Simple & tasty. Try the one in Wexford street if you don't wanna be surrounded by the hordes of Temple Bar.

    A lot of fuzz for the mediocre Dublin burger scene. It's not bad at all yes, but if you know your stuff then you will not have any new mind blowing surprises.

    I’m very disappointed about my burger and the chips. The chips weren’t fresh and the burger as well. It’s wasn’t tasty.
