    On a glum and rainy Glasgow afternoon I drove through the busy holiday traffic and started becoming…read morehangry The road is busy and no parking however right around the back of this place there's the train station parking lot Walked in and was taken aback at how busy it was, full of high school kids enjoying their freedom on the last day of school, sitting around chatting and eating Felt quite jealous that there wasn't any place like this while I was at school Great cool interior, Brick walls with milk urns reused as cool lighting with reclaimed wood adorning the walls The guy serving was super friendly and helped with the menu explaining their specials Phili cheese steak, normally £8 going for £4!!! Then with a side of poutine for £3 it works out a lot of delish food for not much money, so I treated myself to a large banana milkshake £4 I have had more tender cheesesteaks but certainly not for £4 The poutine was the right balance of cheese and gravy however the fries were a little bitty, small and broken, quite difficult to pick up with the wooden spork given I found the burger cardboard holder to save my fingers getting sticky a fantastic touch I loved the milkshake! So much so I got one of the dreaded ice headaches from drinking too fast I am on the fence regarding the price, is it worth £4, I would happily have it again, not for £4 tho, £2 small £4 large ..... I think it should be more £2 and £3.50 I know it's only 50p but it's a clincher sometimes! So will I go back hell yeah!! Great food at a great price and lovey staff

    Here's me admitting I was wrong to hold back that extra star from BRGR. I was pretty skeptical when…read moreit first opened as I didn't expect to like it, but I did (4-stars worth of love, in fact). But now I've been 4 times and I have to admit that I am a bit in love with BRGR. Reasons: 1. The burgers are so cheap. £4 burgers Monday - Friday and just £5 on the weekend. I've now tried the chicken bacon cheese and the cheeseburger, and they were both awesome. In fact, the chicken burger almost has too much chicken on it (what a thing to complain about) - I tend to take off one of the fillets of chicken and eat that separately. 2. But they are also really good burgers. I mean, I could get a cheap burger somewhere else and it could taste like rubbish. I've tried a few burgers here now and they are consistently tasty and properly fresh cooked. 3. Staff. They are all proper friendly and welcoming, and manage to run the place calmly even when it's pretty manic and busy. 4. Sides. Ok, I wasn't won over by the wings when I first had them but since then I've tried the poutine (yes) and mac cheese (oh yes) and really enjoyed both of them. 5. Drinks. They could easily mark-up the drinks to cover the cheap burgers but cans are £1 and the booze is reasonable too. I've ever had a nice rosé here. 6. Lunch burgers. Ok, they open at midday during the week. I work from home about 5 minutes drive away. I haven't been for lunch burgers YET because I feel like this is a slippery slope to burger-related-heart-disease. But it might happen soon. 7. And finally - delivery. They told me last week that they're hoping to start delivering by the end of the month. See point 6. I will try to resist this for as long as possible. So yeh, I am pretty in love with BRGR. We recently popped in for a mid-afternoon snack (Graeme managed to distract me from going for a lazy Maccas drive through) and our meal for two was £10. Amazing. See you soon, BRGR.

The place was great. The rough guy behind the bar may or may not be one of those guys hired to throw fighting drunkards out onto the street, but if so, he was a friendly rough guy who could recommend the right beer along with the outstanding onion rings with a smile on his face and a description of their ingredients and preparation that was straight from a chef's school's creative menu-writing class by way of a genuine love for the establishment's own big circular fried veggies. Our waitress was a engaging, beautiful, well-rounded and very cheerful Sco'ish woman with equal enthusiasm for the burgers and beers on tap. Good service, all y'all! The beer recommended for my wife was a Czech Pilsner draft, Krusovice, a mass-market offering from Heineken that's tasty, if not very challenging. She said it was meh - but she was on the way to finishing the whole pint when I expressed surprise that she'd gone through more than a third of the glass, her usual place to stop. Either she liked it more than she let on, or the day's exertions led to a need for extra alcohol. Mine was a more-local-er IPA that I don't have the name of because I've been counting on the name being on the receipt and it isn't. Darn, because it was tasty and went well with the food and you should get that. So why should an American get a burger in Paisley, UK? I dunno. We were here to join an organized tour of northern Scotland, where we were promised all the Scottish food we cared to mange for the next week, and didn't really want to go overboard; plus, we'd been in Edinburgh the previous few days, and tried some of the local versions of lots of kinds of foods, so just wanted a quick somewhat-familiar bite as a respite. It was the right thing for us. Somewhat familiar, anyway. The burger was delicious, but ground a little differently, so not quite the same texture. It was singed on the crust (mmmm!) but cooked to medium-doneness in the inside (mmmm!). The roll was a beautiful, shiny egg-white-finished thing with excellent texture and an actual flavor of its own. We each got slightly different toppings; even though they had familiar American names, the outcome was just a little different - and seriously yummy. Get a hamburger or a cheeseburger! The fries were potato-y, perfectly done and very tasty. Skins on, peppered as well as salted, yum, get those. My onion rings were among the best I've ever tried, due to the wonderful beer batter. The sauce was OK, not great. Which brings us to ketchup. Heinz ketchup in the UK is just a little different from American Heinz. UK palates apparently appreciate a condiment that's slightly sweeter, with maybe a hind of cinnamon and maybe cardamom. I like it, but it's kind of a funny thing. Your tongue may expect one thing, but since it gets another, there may be some cognitive dissonance going on. Don't let your brain tilt to the "it ain't right" side! No! Gently, mindfully, pull it over to "Mmmmmm, this is good." Because it is. This isn't an American burger joint. It's a Paisley American burger joint. Dude, you're in Scotland. Enjoy it, it's good. Go there. BTW, the taxi stand is a few steps across the square next to the train station. It's about 5 - 6 pounds to the airport Holiday Inn, one pound cheaper than our Uber ride coming in - and the Uber driver was an asshole who gave us a lousy review, preventing us from getting the return trip. Whatever, dude. Sorry you're bitter that you lost your business, but might it be due to your attitude?

These burgers are a bit pricey for their size but are loaded up with amazing, unique ingredients that definitely make this place stand out. Probably one of the best burgers I've ever had, honestly. Would have been nice if we could have specified how we wanted the burgers cooked but that's apparently a restriction put on all Scottish restaurants. The restaurant itself is very small, limited seating so might be best to take out!

    I finally tried out El Perro Negro's burger at the Brew Dog pop up recently and have to say, it was…read moredefinitely in my top 5 burgers of all time. (My previous review is for a wing pop up he did). Thanks to Austen, Trudie, Pammi & Ally, I had the inside scoop of which burger to order - they all said the Top Dog was the best. I was a little confused as I assumed that was a hot dog but nope, it's a burger. What's in it? Beef patty, double bacon, bone marrow, Roquefort butter, caramelized onion and black truffle mayo on the side. And it came with chips. There was a bit of a wait but we were drinking with friends so weren't too bothered. The burgers were nicely presented on a tray with the chips in a pot. Excellent chips and I really liked the black truffle mayo. The burger was obviously the highlight though - it was totally delicious. I actually don't eat too many beef burgers these days as I find a lot of them are overcooked and bland but this was heaven - perfectly cooked meat (rare) and the Roquefort was just the perfect match as it really gave the burger a punch. The combination of flavours was just perfect for me and I really enjoyed it. I've had some good burgers in my time and I really do mean it when I say this is right up there at the top. My only negative comment is really the pricing - £13.50 for a burger and chips is pretty hefty but I can also understand why as this is a special pop up burger which tastes amazing and obviously uses quality product. For me, I wouldn't have this burger every day but as a special occasion treat, hell yes.

    Five Guys, I didn't want our relationship to start this way. Let's pretend you're a potential beau…read moreon Tinder. You're telling me that you're the best burger place on the planet, the Willy Wonka of burgers. Your prices are high and I've got high expectations. Very high - because you told me I should have. I didn't get Willy Wonka, I got Dynamo - a pretty lacklustre attempt at something that everyone else has already done, and better (sorry Dynamo, it's true). So Five Guys came to Scotland and have opened a flurry of stores within a couple of months - there'll be 3 in Glasgow once Braehead opens. Do we need more burger places? No way, but the chains arrived anyway. I visited Silverburn for a late Monday lunch/early dinner and orders a little cheeseburger, little Cajun fries and a drink which came to £10.75. Pretty damn pricey, I'm sure you'll agree. The good: - the drinks machine and refills. - raspberry coke from the drinks machine. - Cajun fries have a lot of punch and are generally pretty good. - Toilets in store rather than having to leave to use the Silverburn ones. - some staff members - Tracey who took my order was nice and chatty, and the guy cleaning up was really nice and checked on what was wrong with my burger when I complained. The bad: - the burger. My bun (bottom half) was super doughy. So doughy I had to take it back and ask for another burger. The replacement one was only moderately better. The rest of the burger was decidedly meh. - the vibe. It feels like being in Maccas which might not be a bad thing if that's what you like but for the prices, it should be nicer. - the other staff. I sat near a group having a management meeting who didn't exude professionalism - shouting at staff returning from breaks and telling another staff member she couldn't sit near them while they had a meeting. It felt a bit high school. Maccas is opening nearby soon, and I'm really not sure how Five Guys will compete. Sure, people will visit once to suss it it out, but then I doubt they'll be back. I hope Five Guys prove me wrong.

    I do love five guys…read more Yes it's expensive and yes the interior is less appealing than some newly refurbished McDonald's However the burgers are great and even a small fries is huge! Bacon cheese burger, small fries and a drink £14 I know I know it's over priced but I sit and get my money's worth with the free refills Today I even got a large fries from the guy instead of the small I purchased.... That's how to surprise and delight your customers and that is another reason I will keep coming back The team in this particular branch are always very friendly and that puts a smile on my face

If you remember the much missed Fouters Bistro you won't recognise the place now! The Smoking Goat is primarily a traditional pub with cosy nooks and crannies, real ales on tap and in bottles, and a great wee bar menu. The lunchtime options feature rare breed beef burger, venison sausage sandwich, pulled pork slider, smoked haddock fishcake, black pudding scotch egg with whisky mustard and more - all pretty imaginative stuff for this part of the world! Vegetarians are valued customers and it was a rare treat to find myself swithering over the menu. I narrowed things down to the red pepper falafel or the jerk spiced portobello mushroom burger with pineapple salsa. I went with the latter and it didn't disappoint, though I could have done with a few more of their lovely crisp fries on the side. Yay for free wifi without a password. I found it impossible to get a data signal down there so it came in handy. Customer-wise this is a good spot for socialising as well as dining. There are events going on throughout the week including pub quizzes and they have a pull down screen which I think they are showing the 6 nations rugby on, though this is not a 'sports bar' and there are no TVs. This is just a personal opinion, but I'd love to see the music turned down a wee notch to make conversation easier, and the lighting turned up a wee notch so the menu can be more easily read. Despite all the hard stone surfaces the acoustics were excellent. I can see this being a good venue for the occasional intimate music gig. Recommended!

Stocks a good range of newer beers in cans & bottles as well as having a couple of ales on handpull. Probably does cocktails to an extent. Quite a few nooks & crannies to sit in, giving it a nice amount of privacy if that's what you're looking for. I can see how the low lighting would be an issue when reading the menu but, in terms of just being in for a drink it was okay.
