The Big Mackie Burger / The Smokey Juan – Broadcast, Glasgow

As one of Glasgow most-loved gig venues and friendly bars, the Captain’s Rest has been sorely missed by many since it’s closure; however, the team behind the bar have returned with it’s successor – Broadcast, located on the busy Sauchiehall street – they’ve even kept the long-running ‘Captain’s Quiz Night’ going, that was popular among […]

Return Visit: Customised ‘Greedy B’ Burger – Slouch, Glasgow

Our last visit to Slouch took place only a couple of weeks ago. Normally, we wouldn’t make a return trip so soon; however, this was a rather unexpected visit after getting together with some friends and family last minute on a Friday evening. During our last review, we highlighted that our main issues with the […]

Red Mist Burger / Black Friday Burger – MeatHammer Ltd @ Nice N Sleazy, Glasgow

It’s been a while since we’d paid a visit to Nice N Sleazy. In fact, until this review we hadn’t been in since we had presented Chef Andrew Yates with his award for best burgers in Glasgow for 2012, as voted by our readers. We’ve been following MeatHammer at Nice N Sleazy closely since then […]

The Jamie’s Italian Burger – Jamie’s Italian, Glasgow

Recently, a lively discussion on the burger at Jamie’s Italian took place on our Facebook page and seemed to divide the opinions of our readers. Some people seemed to love it, others not so much. We’d never been in the restaurant since it opened in Glasgow and since we thought that the burger looked pretty […]

Secret Menu Burgers: The Triple Bubba / The Duke – Buddy’s BBQ & Burgers, Glasgow

It’s hard to think of a food outlet in Glasgow that received more attention and got people talking as much as Buddy’s BBQ & Burgers did when it launched last year and went viral among hungry Glaswegians looking for the next great place to eat. It’s also hard to think of a place that has […]

Rebel Yell Burger / Sweet Child O’Swine Burger – Slouch, Glasgow

In recent weeks, we’ve encountered a couple of really great burgers on Bath street, namely the house special burger from Moskito and the Fat Pig burger from Palomino. Since we’re coming up on our first birthday here at James vs. Burger, we’ve been feeling all nostalgic recently and decided to head back to Bath street […]

Fried Chicken Burger – Smoak @ Sanctuary, Glasgow

If you’ve read any of our past reviews of Smoak, whether it’s been from their home at the Variety Bar or as part of the Street Food Cartel event, you’ll know that we’re huge fans of their food. These guys produce some of the best pulled pork, brisket and street food that you are likely […]

Bangkok Burger – Soba, Glasgow

We know what you’re thinking – surely a restaurant & cocktail bar known for it’s South-East Asian cuisine would be one of the last places you’d expect to find a good burger in Glasgow? Well, we would have probably agreed with you before; however, when we happened to notice the Bangkok Burger, advertised as served […]

Moskito Burger / Pulled Pork Sandwich – Moskito, Glasgow

Moskito is one of those bars that we’ve walked past many times, always making a mental note to stop by for a burger review. We had actually planned to visit several times before this review, but each time something always got in the way and admittedly, we sort of just forgot about it altogether. Recently, […]

1901 Burger / Elvis Burger – 1901 Bar & Grill, Glasgow

A recent discussion regarding the best burger in Glasgow’s south side on our Facebook page sparked us to head over to Shawlands. We recently reviewed the burger from Eat Cafe, a widely regarded favourite amongst our readers and found it to be pretty darn good. We decided to randomly pick a venue in the south […]
