Gourmet Burger Kitchen - London

I always enjoy the burgers at GBK, though I can never finish them. Food: 4.0 I recently opted for the blue cheese burger at the Spitalfields location, and it was truly delicious! That being said, I attribute my inability to finish the meal to the cheese. I only asked for the 1 portion. . . I can only imagine how rich the two portions of blue cheese is! The skinny chips were delicious as always. If crisps and chips had a baby, that baby would be the GBK skinny chip! So cute, crispy, and tasty! My partner in crime shared a chocolate milkshake with me (seriously, kudos if you can finish one of those behemoths! The flavour was great wonderfully creamy and chocolatey. That being said, I found the chocolate sprinkles scattered throughout more annoying that anything. They don't add anything to the flavour, just an unexpected crunch I never get used to. For whatever reason, I don't like my drinks crunchy! Their strawberry milkshakes, though those are amazing! Service/ Ambiance: 3.0 The ambiance and the service are pretty interlinked in this case, so I'm rating them as one. I'm not a huge fan of this location. It is huge, but somehow completely crammed at all times. It has a feeling of being chaotic. The servers always seem a bit confused. People get pushy. They also wouldn't accept my taste card, so that was obviously pretty devastating. I'll probably be back. But the next time I want a GBK burger I may get it to takeaway.

The burgers are decent here however with so many other options so close, one may be able to improve. GBK has become very transactional in my opinion, the TGI friday style ordering system and confusion seems to erupt whenever this is veered from. The Camemburger was nice however became quite filling about half way through with all the cheese and the mayo could have definitely been 'trufflier '. Nice chips and quick service, again it feels transactional but i guess in a busy city this tactic is rewarded. One thing this place does really well is shakes, adding extra malt somehow makes them even more fulfilling.

Very nice burger and chips, would recommend. The best thing is that you can go in, sit, and order directly from the app! The only problem is that there is no way to order your drink with no ice, so if that’s your preference, you’ll always need to ask them to drop the ice for you.

I tried gbk years ago, but I think I just ordered the wrong things because I haven't been back since. but I tried one of those things, and it wasn't as bad as I remember. I ordered a classic veggie burger with thin frits and of course a milkshake, but with more ice than milk (usual request, sometimes successful.) the burger was good, but not the most delicious veggie pattie I had, nevertheless had me a veggie option. the fries were a bit on the salty side, but I like how extra thin their fries are. a novelty. the service was good and a nice restaurant that is well maintained.

Only a real Burger lover knows that burger gourmet burger kitchen mean! for a vegetarian this place is a hoot because they offer 'taste' in their veggie burger and not just salt and pfeffer! I loved her sweet potato friars with blue cheese dip!
