Burger love

I've had a bit of a craving for burgers recently and I have had two really good ones of late- both of which I would recommend.
The first was at Baroosh- a trendy bar in Marlow, where I went for Sunday lunch. It had a great feel about it with cool stain glass windows and leather couches.
There is a small nibbles section, which you can mix and match, and a fairly basic mains menu. I went for the chargrilled beef burger in a toasted brioche bun
with sliced tomato, dill pickle, burger sauce & gem lettuce, served with a mug of skinny fries. It was £8.75. The meat was really good quality and seasoned perfectly. The dill pickle really added a good punch to the burger and the chips were nicely salted.
I still had room for dessert and went for a belgian waffle with dulce de leche fudge sauce and vanilla ice cream (£4). It seemed really good value as the quality was great.

Just a week later I had to pick a burger once more in Bristol to Grounded in St George's. It is a great little cafe with a nice relaxed feel to it and it's hard to get a table. The menu is pretty extensive and everything looked good.
In the end I went for the beef burger s/w cheese, mayo, mixed leaves, beef tomato, gherkins, red onion, onion rings and chips £8.50. It was pretty hard to get my teeth around but was worth the slightly dislocated jaw!
The meat was juicy and perfectly cooked. The cheese was mild, which suited me, and I loved the toppings. A great cafe.
