Annie’s Burger Shack was on my Nottingham bucket list for a while but sadly I never made it before my graduation. Thankfully, I managed to convince a friend to come with me when I went back for a visit- she had been before so it wasn’t hard to persuade her. This was absolutely the wrong time to discover it. The menu has so many unique, mouth-watering combinations that it took quite a while just to order food. I settled on a fajita inspired burger which was pretty good but not as tasty has my friend’s pulled pork burger. Thankfully, they were huge so I got her leftovers! It looks like I’m going to have to go back to Nottingham just to explore that menu.
I didn’t expect to find one of the greatest burgers in a pub in a little Kentish village, so sadly I didn’t have a camera on me. Trust me though, it was good. My burger came with a rather cold corn-on-the-cob but that just didn’t matter. My steak and chorizo was lovingly wrapped in a tortilla instead of sandwiched in a bun, which turned out to be genius. It also came with cheese, gherkin and chutney. Omg. My. God. I was happy. Did I mention the chunky, beef dripping chips? Because those are also worth mentioning.
My timing was seriously off in Nottingham, I only discovered Spanky’s burgers towards the end of my time at university. Even worse, they do 2-4-1 on Tuesdays. That’s three years of cheap burgers I could have been enjoying. Oh and the chips were amazing and came complete with some potato skin still on them. Thankfully, I recently discovered that the bar is a semi-chain. Several bars across the country have the same Ruby Jean’s Diner menu, so off I went to the Sindercombe Social in Shepherd’s Bush, London. The bar didn’t have the same vibe as Spankys and the food wasn’t quite as good but I am happy to know that my favourite burgers are in reaching distance again. Sadly my salsa burger is no longer on the menu but my chorizo and chipotle jam burger was a pretty happy alternative.
