World Tour: Meister Aller Klassen Burger – Burgermeister, Berlin

Burgermeister is probably the coolest burger joint we’ve ever been to. A little gem tucked away underneath a bridge in East Berlin, serving up burgers all day and night out of an old converted public toilet. Don’t let that put you off, though – this place is spotless, exudes cool and the food is absolutely […]

Faktory Burger / Bacon & Brie Burger – The Faktory, Glasgow

The Faktory is the latest student hangout to open its doors in Glasgow’s West end; located on Byres road, just minutes walk from Kelvinhall subway station. Inside, the bar is made up of a few booths, tables and chairs scattered around a large open dance floor space and there’s a well stocked bar too. It’s […]

All Burger’d Out?: Buddy’s BBQ Pop-Up – The Glad Cafe, Glasgow

The Glad Cafe is a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it type of place, located through an unassuming entrance on Pollokshaws Road in Glasgow’s south-side. We’re rather ashamed to say that, until recently, we had never actually been inside the cafe despite consistently hearing great things about not only their food, but their aim and what they stand for. The […]

Classic Burger / Grinder Burger – MEAT bar, Glasgow

Meat-infused cocktails, burgers, sliders and take-away lunchtime sandwiches are just a few of the things that you’ll find inside West Regent street’s latest arrival. MEAT bar; which, at the time of writing this review had only been open for a few days, is all about one thing and everything you need to know is in […]

Double Pulled Pork Cheeseburger – Bar Gumbo, Glasgow

Whenever I visit family in New York, there’s a little place that I like to go to called the Great Jones Cafe which, in my opinion, serves up some of the best soul food in the city. Each and every time I leave that place, I always come home to Glasgow, wishing that there was […]

Recipe: Sweet Chilli Pork & Chorizo Burgers

This recipe is great for warm Summer days (when we’re lucky enough to get them in Glasgow!). The pork is slightly lighter than beef and the sweet chilli sauce, chorizo and red onion really lift the flavour. Enjoy this one outside, with an ice cold bottle of beer, cider or your favourite soft drink. INGREDIENTS: […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
