I found out yesterday that GBK now provide table service which is pretty cool but I preferred paying before I eat. I'm not fussed either way. Burgers are always fresh and tender with great salad and chunky chips. I love the consistency of service and quality. I also love the Buffalo burger with mozzarella ..Mmm. But 99% of their other burgers are yummy too - please don't order the Classic it's too boring! This GBK is pretty small but I see it as cosy but that also means it gets busy quickly.

I had the avocado and bacon burger and it came stacked so high the only way of eating it was with a knife and fork. I tried to pick it up and eat it, but to no avail. I'm not sure you should need cutlery to eat a burger, but it tasted good and the salad and slaw was inexpensive and plentiful. I think I'll give it another go, just to see what it deserves another star.

I've had burgers from other GBK branches but my favourite is in the Ealing branch, tucked away from…read morethe busy high street. I've been coming here for years now, seeing how things changed have only made it better. Ever since they brought out the option to have your burgers 'naked' (so without the bun), gives more choice to having a bun less meal and it's great for people on gluten free diets. I don't have a favourite burger per se, but I can say the taxi driver is usually the best and a safe bet. For those who observe a halal food diet, GBK's chicken is halal but due to kitchen structure and food cooked together on the grill the panko fried chicken is the best option. However, GBK are flexible for you to choose whatever burger you want with fried chicken. Oh yeah, one last point, their milkshakes are amazing! Lime is pretty interesting but I think either vanilla or peanut butter is the best.

Gourmet Burger Kitchen is now established as a familiar London chain. Once upon a time I would have…read morefrowned at paying £7 for a burger, but GBK has proved itself to me: it's tasty and filling. The Ealing branch is no exception. Food is ordered at the bar and delivered to your table, while the servers will bring you drinks. The variety of burgers, toppings, and sauces is extensive. You want pineapple on your lamb burger? No problem, weirdo. It's a nicer place than a fast-food joint but more casual than your typical sit-down restaurant. It's the sort of place where you can order a burger as big as your head and not be overly worried when the red onion chutney runs down your chin.

My husband and I have been going there ever since we discovered their first restaurant in Battersea. It's competition is really no competition GBK has hands on the best burgers. 'It is all on the cheese' my husband says, as a French man he loves the Blue Cheese Burger and says no other place puts so much cheese in the burger as they do here. I say it's their gourmet combinations, my favourites: Jamaican (mango, ginger and extra avocado), Chorizo (spicy spanish sausage, sweet potato and rocket). Also, this place is good for anyone, a loner, a couple, a family or a big group. They are very accommodating with children and will help settle yourself when entering with a stroller, bags and everything else that comes with babies. The concept behind GBK is actually from New Zealand, but I am really glad it started here.

Oh My Days! i love this place the burgers are HUGE! move over Big Mac…read more The restaurant itself is very well kept and looks good. The service was really good, with polite staff. For starters i decided to order Cajun Chicken pieces that comes with sweet chilli sour cream dip. Oh my days! seriously this is one to try, it was divine in texture and taste! I then went for the Kiwi burger which was well presented and like i said before HUGE! it had 100% Angus beef with egg,beetroot,pinapple,cheese, salad and mayo. I mean WOW it was juicy and delicious, my mouth's watering as i write. You need to cut the the buger in half to eat it unless you have a bigger mouth then the average human being. I manage to make my way to the chips although i didn't finish, (the burger added with the starter was filling) The chips were not saying much personally, but the rest brilliant. I couldnt even eat breakfast the next morning i was that full. For you veggies they have a vegterain selection. Their is a selction for kids. And you can create your own buger if you dont fancy any of the burgers on the menu (i doubt it). The burgers are priced from 6 to 8 pounds but well worth it. Because its in Westfields, their so much to do, shop for starters! or afters, whatever you fancy. Their are great transport links, also their is the high street where their are pubs, other food outlets, cinema and shepard bush empire.

Wowwy wow! Talk about good burgers!…read more First off, come hungry or ready to share. Even the smalls here are larger than most burgers, and the larges are good to feed a small nation. (Related, one of the reasons they're at 4 instead of 5 stars is because they were out of large buns, so I had to settle for a large burger on a small bun. Apparently this is common.) Also, a single serving of chips is enough to share...this place doesn't skimp on quantity! I ordered the Jamaican burger and absolutely recommend it. The menu says it comes with a "mango and ginger sauce," but didn't warn me that it'd give me inappropriate thoughts. Yeah, it's that good. I didn't add any custom extras because I wanted an official sanctioned burger, but were I to go back (and I will!) I'd request onions on the burger. Though the burger is already so tasty it might not be worth the £1. The crew here was very helpful. We had never been and our server politely explained the ordering process. The wait was a bit long when trying to order, but they were crowded so can't really complain. As mentioned before, they were out of large buns, so when our food came out we mentioned we were supposed to have larges. The server promptly took our order back and was prepared to have it remade, before the unfortunate news came down. I was pleased with the service here. As a few other people have mentioned, this place is a bit pricy. You're looking at at least £8 for a burger. Add on chips and a drink and you're up to £10-12. Want a shake? Be prepared to fork over £3.50! If you want a great burger and have a some cash to spend, definitely head here!

The simple, delicious beauty of the hamburger has not been forgotten by Gourmet Burger Kitchen, where several wicked and exotic types of hamburger can be eaten over a glass of good wine or beer and a plate of garlicky olives. The only question you'll raise at Gourmet Burger Kitchen is not why you are there, but how you are going to eat the massive burger that has just arrived in front of you. I prefer the grab-and-send-to-bottomless-pit method, but depending on your company you might just prefer to use a knife and fork. Their bacon and avo burger is scrumptious, but if you're not adventurous, so is their cheese burger. You must try Gourmet Burger Kitchen, and the sizeable Wimbledon branch is a great start.

If only.... The popularity of the GBK chain extends to this Wimbledon BRoadway location. On sunny days, they open out the front of the restaurant. They offer a range of different burgers, with different meat fillings and even some veggie options. They're all tasty though I've yet to figure out how to fit them into my mouth without spillage! Definitely not a first date place if you want to appear to have good table manners! I also love their proper milkshakes. Solid place for lunch, especially if people are choosy.

It's an American style burger joint with good food and nice decor. Service is great - got there on a Sunday evening and it wasn't crowded. Sat down and ordered a Byron ale - of course...

This Angel-Byron is really trying very hard to be cool; in my opinion, they've gone over-board with the currently all-so trendy "unfinished look": the walls are stripped barren, the cables are exposed and sitting on the upstairs gallery, you feel like you're in an attic or so. Granted, I like the unfnished look...but please keep it in moderation! As for the food, my burger was really just alright; nothing special. And the skin-on chunky fries were bland and lacked some salt (sure, I could add that, but they were so deep-fried that the salt didn't stick to them properly). I was also a little annoyed by the selection of wines. You could choose between: good, better, great and best. I mean, it is already nice that they want to help me with my decision-making, but I find it all to trivial, that the good one is the cheapest and the best one is the most expensive! All in all, my expectations were not met and I have no desire to try out any other Byron locations in the near future.

While on holiday in the UK we were trying to avoid chain-type restaurants but, being in the mood for a burger and a short scan of the menu, we decided to try it out. I chose the Avocado Bacon Burger with skinny fries. Fluffy sesame seed bun, 100% beef, chunks of avocado, thick & crispy bacon, a bit too much mayo (I'm not a fan of mayo and it was oozing out of the burger, scraped a good amount off the bun) and a yummy sweet/sour relish. A good burger, but I would have preferred sliced avocado over chunks. Avocados are pretty slippery and the chunks kept spilling out. Also, the meat was kind of "chewy"? Perhaps too well done. I like my meats medium/well to well done but the texture still remains tender, this one had a slight chewiness to it. The skinny fries, are skinny. They're what I know as shoestring potatoes. Super skinny, crispy and golden..closer to a chip (or crisp). Service was friendly and prompt. You chose your table and are provided a menu. Your order is placed at the back counter and your order is delivered to your table. Carafes of water and cups are available to take near the back counter along with a couple of their house sauces. Overall good experience, pretty standard chain fare.

I ordered the cheese burger from the lunch menu and immediately regretted it. I should have tried the more exotic burgers on the main menu. The cheese burger was excellent!! Possibly the best burger I've ever had. If the standard burger style is so good, I can only imagine how the others taste. The other reviews are not joking, this place is great!! It's a must try if you are in the area in my opinion.

If you are looking for a fun date place or a nice family meal destination, go to GBK. It's not exactly fast food, but operates a little like a partial self-serve restaurant. You choose a table and learn the number of your table from a wandering waiter or waitress. Then you look at menus and choose your burgers (SO many options) and head up to a counter to place your order. In about 10-15 minutes, your food arrives on nice plates with silverware and it's all very civilized. So a mix of fast food and sit down restaurant all in one. Plus the burgers are delicious, unique, and really well-presented. I loved GBK!
