Inn Deep Burger – Inn Deep, Glasgow

I had never visited the Big Blue Bar & Restaurant, which formally occupied 445 Great Western Road. I had heard good things about their burgers but simply just hadn’t found the time to stop by. Whilst I was planning out a list of upcoming reviews, I was surprised to find out that Big Blue had […]

St Louis Smokin’ Burger – St Louis Cafe Bar, Glasgow

After my visit to the St Louis Cafe, I almost feel bad that it has gone unnoticed by me for as long as it has. Until last week, I didn’t even know the cafe existed and it was only when James vs. Burger reader Emma Duguid posted a photo of a burger on our Facebook […]

Beef Burger – Red Onion, Glasgow

Tucked away on West Campbell street, just off of Glasgow’s busy Bath street, lies Red Onion – a small, stylish restaurant run by chef and owner John Quigley. Red Onion feels like a warm, family dining room as you walk through the front door, through the following curtain and into an oasis of bare brick […]

Double Burger – WEST Brewery, Glasgow

Let me start this review by saying that I love the West brewery. I’ve been a fan of their own in-house produced beer for many years now and the bar itself is one of my favourite places to meet up with friends and family on a rare hot summer’s day in Glasgow. I love nothing […]

Oxtail & Bone Marrow Special Burger – The Grosvenor Cafe, Glasgow

I recently sampled the Grosvenor’s oxtail and bone marrow beef burger at the 2012 Glasgow’s Best Burger contest and despite only having a few bites, I knew it was one that I had to try on it’s own. Tucked away on Ashton Lane, the Grosvenor Cafe doesn’t look all that big on the outside, but […]

The Chinaski’s Burger – Chinaski’s, Glasgow

Chinaski’s, which is named after the autobiographical character created by Charles Bukowski, is hard to find if you don’t know where to look. Located next to the Black Sparrow on North street, Chinaski’s hides in plain sight with it’s unmarked entrance, lack of sign and dark windows – a way to deter troublesome drinkers who […]

Beef Burger – Velvet Elvis, Glasgow

As you sit inside Velvet Elvis and look around, you’ll feel like you are slap bang in the middle of the infamous cantina scene from Star Wars due to the wide variety of people you’ll see there – young couples, families, pensioners, office workers and people from various walks of life fill up this popular, […]

Bolt Burger – Tribeca, Glasgow

Tribeca describes itself as ‘the best little cafe in the world’ and is usually jam packed with customers no matter what time of day you visit. Once you step inside and let the atmosphere soak in, it’s not hard to see why. The guys at Tribeca have carved out a little slice of New York […]

The Slope Burger – Big Slope, Glasgow

Everyone has one of those bars that they walk or drive past almost daily and think to themselves, ‘I need to go in there soon’ and never do. For me, Big Slope was just that. Located just around the corner from the likes of Lebowski’s and the Ivy, Big Slope sits on the corner of […]
