Shop front from my queue-like vantage point.

Today was the grand opening of BRGR, who celebrated by giving away their Coo Tipper burger for free! Any add ons were, of course, chargeable but were super very affordable. Harry and I ordered a side of rooster fries between us for £2 and it was huge! The restaurant also were collecting optional donations for Unite Against Cancer. Anywho, as you might imagine they were pretty slammed as word of this fabulous promotion got out. The students were especially out in force looking to get their tea for free. They were doing sit in service only, so you couldn't grab a burger and run. As such we had a 45 minute wait for a seat. But while we waited outside in the massive queue, they sweetened us up with free milkshakes. The strawberry and chocolate were both delicious! When we finally got our butts into some seats, we were greeted by the first of the many super sweet waiting staff. They took our drinks and side orders, and were constantly keeping us updated on the status of our food (the kitchen was still understandably backed up) and were very attentive. The restaurant even provides you with your very own 'hawder' to keep your fingers clean of burger juices! Finally the main event arrived... and it was definitely worth waiting for! The Coo Tipper is going on the menu at £6, and I reckon it's worth every penny. A nice, thick burger patty with a hint of pepper served medium rare on a brioche bun with fry sauce, cheese, gherkins and salad. My tummy was indeed singing in its wake! The rooster fries were super tasty too! I'd have gotten a full size milkshake too but my wee stomach couldn't take any more deliciousness. All in, a fabulous evening. I dare say I'll be back to pay full price. ^^

Really not convinced by this place. We popped in for a late burger about a month ago and the quality of food on offer was poor and the staff were far from friendly. The burger tasted like it had come out a freezer and been reheated. It was a weird purple colour inside and was really far from the high standards set by other places doing a similar style of food in Glasgow at the moment. I was asked how the burger was and said I thought it was pretty poor. The waitress said she would get the manager to come and see me . We waited and waited...... He refused to come out. I was not expecting anything more than a couple of words to enquire what the issue was, but he left his staff to pass on the news. Anyways if you have got used to great big messy durty tasty burgers I would really give this place a miss. As the ones on offer here are a limp slightly sad imposter.

Brgr is the best I've had in Glasgow! Need I say more? First of all, you get a "hawder" to hold your burger. Pretty amazing little carton device that you fold yourself (DIY, customer co-creation, and all the jazz. That's the marketer in me speaking, sorry.) Then, the burgers are just perfect. I had the Hot Coo, which I very much recommend if you like a bit of spice. My boyfriend had the Barbie and apparently, the onion relish is amazing too. Sides of fries, obviously, and onion rings. Both very much to recommend, although the onions were a bit fatty. And then, dear friends, you have too try the Oreo-rum milkshake. Don't hesitate asking for a big of extra rum...it was the first time they did if for us and they were not sure of quantities, so it can't hurt asking :-) Anyway, go go go, you won't be disappointed!

Hawder (Patent Pending)

In a world full of Five Guys, Gourmet Burger Kitchen, Handmade Burger Company and goodness knows who else, BRGR is an authentic, stripped back experience that's easy to fall in love with. This bustling but cozy cabin on Great Western Road specialises in it's own dressed up Brioche Bun burgers, with a menu quite similar in size to a kids toy range that will make you want to "collect them all" so to speak... As a dining experience, you won't find yourself with a napkin and cutlery here, but you'll be welcomed and shown to a table spot by someone when you come in. You'll be asked the obligatory "Have you been here before?" question, eluding that the protocol is different from what's normally done at places that sell food. It's really quite simple however. On weekdays most burgers are £4 exactly as a "deal". Weekends are £5. Table staff will take your order when you're ready or you can go crazy and walk the full 3 paces up to the counter and order "Nandos style" Beyond the amazing quality and sophistication of the actual the bUrger team BRGR produce, what's probably the most impressive thing is how it's served. While no cutlery is the default, you'll be given your own card "Hawder" - a fold up pouch that allows you to hold your burger in hand, without half of it falling out the other end and causing embarrassment. Instead of dainty napkins, tables are entrusted with entire rolls of kitchen towel. Instead of plates, your order cknes in a neat foil parcel. Sauce sachets are out, and in with the diner style ketchup bottles and special house mayonnaise (I think) The service isn't as fast as your McDonalds, but that's because instead of being cooked in 14 seconds from frozen, BRGR do all their steak mince burgers medium. As someone who's only ever asked for a steak well done historically, I found it new and slightly terrifying, but it's genuinely one of the best burgers you can have in the city, and it'll leave you with change from a fiver for a can of Irn Bru. The only slight downsides that I've had at BRGR as a semi-frequent visitor has been *leaving* Paying as a group is quite easy, as multiple cards can be taken for one order, but once you've asked for the bill we've often found ourselves waiting for the staff to take the orders of new walk ins before we've even seen the card machine. This is odd. Particularly since we're taking up space that could otherwise be more effectively utilised... Another thing to avoid with BRGR are their wing "sides" - with a small side of chicken wings costing £3 for what must literally be 3 of he smallest chicken wings on the planet, you're better off sticking to their wholesome sweet potato fries instead. As the name suggests, BRGR is meaty place. But you may be surprised by how good their chicken (and bacon) Cesar salad is. If for some strange reason you feel like a little bit more of the green stuff, it can be a great alternative - providing whoever's on shift goes to the effort of *drying* the lettuce leaves before bundling it all into the box. There's nothing worse than having a small paddling pool in your lunch box

The burgers are pretty good, and their recent promotions have brought the prices into practically fast food range. Shakes are also nice there. They only get three stars because of two things I find less than awesome. One is that everything is disposable - your food comes in paper or cardboard wrappers and even utensils are cheap wood disposable things. I guess this keeps costs down but it's hard to eat a burger with no bun in a cardboard box with a wooden fork and knife. The second is that the service can be good, but there's a tendency for staff to hang out at the back of the restaurant and it's sometimes hard to get someone's attention. It tends to be hit or miss - the servers are usually really good when they are with you, but the ghosting is problematic. Maybe the answer is takeaway, which is available.

El Perro Negro - Korean wings

Finnieston, West End

This place was recommended to us by family who live in the area and they were not at all…read moreexaggerating about how great these burgers are! 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.

Had the Goth ice cream which a black coconut ice cream With Jäegermeister syrup black sprinkles and wafer .Coconut creamy meets chocolate bitters and orange citrus . The syrup they use is sweet and thick and adds another dimensions of texture to this already complex up desert . Absolutely fabulous . I will definitely be back to try their buckfast shake . --- Came back the next day because I wanted to get their extremely limited goth dessert again which they were sold out of . Sad . But at least I had the chance to take advantage of their £4 Tuesday burger meal deal . I added caramelized onions for an extra pound but would recommend springing for the cheddar cheese or bacon for an extra £2 which is still a good deal ! As the the taste ? It's £4 burger with fries . No complaints ! As for the buckfast shake ...what an interesting concoction . It's strong ...I can only imagine what having straight buckfast would be like ..I'm glad my first time was in shake form as I'm sure the cream and milk toned down the alcohol and sharpness a lot . The overall flavor really grows on you . It reminds me of like a Neapolitan shake ( heavy on the chocolate and strawberry and no vanilla ice cream ) with a crap ton of added fermented strawberries and maraschino cherries and maraschino cherry syrup . If I was the chef I'd tweak this by adding a rum flambé banana slice or just banana in general would be so nice . I like this place a lot and would low key love to be a business partner or be able up a similar place in the States . Definitely a gem in Glasgow.

Nice, dark alternative style pub in Glasgow, near the University area. Very LGBTQIA friendly…read more I visited with a friend who was showing me the area, and was delighted to try their fried chicken and french fries. Their chicken had a light but crunchy batter that was extremely flavorful, the fries, Oh my! There were so many of them and they were hot and fresh, and there was a side of slaw that was tasty too. But the absolute best thing was the sticky toffee biscotti pudding. It's fried and it's decadent, served with vanilla ice cream, it's so good. Visit! You'll love it
