The Founder burger at BRGR.CO / Restaurant review / London
food
The delightful mix of juicy patties, weirdly addictive plastic cheese and magic ‘secret’ sauce might taste like our childhood, but us Londoners now love our buns to be a touch more elaborate, with provenance’d and pedigree’d ingredients.
And by the best thing, I mean one of London’s best burger spots, BRGR.CO launched their own take on McD’s Big one.
Named ‘The Founder’ as an hommage to the soon-to-be-released movie, it comprises of two of BRGR’s signature Blade steak patties with melted cheese, shredded iceburg lettuce, pickled gherkins, and of course, the secret recipe BRGR.CO sauce, all inside a triple layer sesame bun.
With carefully sourced ingredients, it’s the best of both burger worlds and a thing of true meaty beauty, and very, very close to the original.
Unfortunately, it’s a limited edition sort of burger, which will only be on sales 13th-26th February from both BRGR.CO locations.
BRGR.Co - London | Restaurant Review | The Arbuturian
food
A strange, vowel-less beast that’s popped up on Wardour Street, part of the renaissance of Soho restaurants and the new breed of burger purveyors who’ve set up shop to make the most of London’s burning desire for re-imagined American junk-food.
BRGR is actually part of a rather well-established restaurant group, with two existing burger restaurants in Beirut, of all places.
My burger is smaller and more refined; I’ve avoided the hulking mass of the ‘Blogger’ and chosen the 8oz ‘Masterpiece’ burger topped with aged gruyere and bacon.
The beef used for these burgers is sourced from herds on the Buccleuch Estate in Scotland and aged for a minimum of 28 days.
The flavour is good; they’re simple burgers: ground beef, a little salt, black pepper, no other adornment.

Review of Burger Restaurant BRGR.CO on Wardour Street
food
Let me kick off by stating that the BRGR.CO isn’t your usual burger joint.
We were kindly offered lunch at their Soho branch after I wasn’t able to make their burger-fuelled soiree a few nights earlier, so with the babes and snap-happy husband in tow, we scuttled through the rain to Wardour St slumping into a window table in the warm and welcoming restaurant for a fun few hours of scoffing and laughing with the staff (whom were mostly Greek like me) leaving full to the brim and happier than before.
It’s about breaking bread (or burgers in this case) with the familia, or friends and forgetting your troubles for a few hours.
Juicy, tender burgers, nutty kale salad, golden onion rings, crispy chicken wings, tangy lobster rolls and salted caramel freakshakes your dreams are made of, but also: neon lights flashing out BUNS from its exterior, a toilet which at the flick of a switch, dims the lights and blasts Ricky Martin from its speakers, flashes of neon scribbles dancing on the walls.
See, BRGR.CO isn’t your usual burger joint.
Patty and Bun vs Brgr.co review – burger bun fight | The Picky Glutton
food menu desserts
Beirut burgers and the best chicken wings in London London doesn’t seem to be tiring of burgers.
Although the burgers may headline the menu at Patty and Bun, for me the real star dish is the confit chicken wings.
Patty and Bun has the superior burger that simply and easily outclasses the limp effort from Brgr.co.
I almost feel sorry for Brgr.co – the place has taken a brutal kicking from other reviewers and while I agree that it’s not good and isn’t worth going to, it’s not because its burgers taste bad – it’s because they don’t taste of anything at all.
Having said that, Patty and Bun’s burgers, while good, aren’t the best burgers in London.
BRGR.Co Soho - London Restaurant Review
food menu location staff
For Brgr.Co, this is their first restaurant outside Lebanon and the question is whether their Middle Eastern popularity could be replicated in a place where decent burger joints and patty pretension are two a penny… Situated at the end of Wardour Street, they’ve secured a prime location for those Oxford Street revelers and wandering theatre goers looking for a quick bite to eat.
Split into two sections by a nice brick wall partition, the front area overlooks the kitchen and the back area has a more intimate, secluded feel about it.
Sold at auction every few months and with the proceeds going to charity, it’s a nice little touch and sets it aside from some of the other burger merchants in the area.
The standard section is made from a Blade Steak patty as the base (starting at £6.75) and offering a range of variations around this such as the Chilli Brgr and the Guacamole and Cheese Brgr and our eventual first choice The Stilton Brgr (£8.50).
In the signature section, The Rump Steak Brgr (£12.50) comes captioned with the rhetorical question ‘The best burger in London?’

food
Small burgers, made from the cheapest cuts, start at a very reasonable £4.75.
The burgers arrived Ikea-style, laid out for self-assembly with lettuce, tomatoes and pickle on the side.
You could certainly find a worse burger in London, but compared to Soho’s other joints, this place lacks a bit of soul.
