Honest Burgers (Brixton, London, by G?tz B?rkle)

I got to know about Honest Burgers through Daniel Young?s Top 10 Burgers in London list at http://youngandfoodish.com/london/top-10-burgers-in-london/, where Honest Burgers is currently ranked #7. I don?t want to discuss any ranking, but I can state that at honest Burgers in Brixton you definitely get a delicious burger. When I arrived on the early evening, I had to wait for about 15 minutes, they said I would have to wait for 20 minutes. So, while waiting I popped into French & Grace a few stalls down the alley for a coffee and some reading (actually, it?s interesting that almost everywhere you get chatted up when you read in the recently released ?Londoners? by Craig Taylor at the moment).

As promised I got a ?missed call? as notification when I could head back. Nice service. And after the waitress explained that I shouldn?t pick up, because it?s her phone, you also get the her number without needing to ask for it, if that?s relevant to you. I guess that?s subject to change.

As soon as I was seated I got the menu. You don?t have much choice anyway. Chicken, beef, veggy. Period. Almost. Of course I went for the Honest Burger with cheese and bacon. As drink I opted for homemade lemonade, that?s almost always a good choice.

I don?t know how long I had to wait for my food, but I didn?t mind anyway. It?s a quite small restaurant with the kitchen right behind the counter, so you can see the chefs fiddling around with the food.

The burger was really very very tasty, just a bit small. Not too small, but also not too big. The chips are among the best chips I?ve had in London so far. Nicely spiced with rosemary, or whatever, probably a little bit too salty, but good in size and cooked to the point, if it is appropriate to say that for chips.

The only real downside of enjoying a great (though not large) burger there is that they don?t serve any desserts. I guess they simply have no space to prepare and store desserts in the small kitchen area, but despite I liked the (cute) light French accent of the second waitress, having no desserts at all put me off a little bit, resulting in only four stars.

But after all, if you like chips and burgers, it should be a safe bet to go there.
