Burgerij

«Most likely the best Burgers you will ever taste» the Menu told me. It was wrong. By a long way.
I got a decent Burger, the «Smokey Bacon» but nothing to rave about. The meat was good but it was let down by the boring bun, the tasteless BBQ-​sauce and cheese. Fries are also not «the best» and the side salad was very boring (Cucumber and Tomatoes cut into huge pieces).
Prices are reasonable by Dutch Standards, but if you want your money’s worth, skip the 3,50 € for the salad and the fries and order an appetizer instead.
It´s a nice place to sit generally, service was friendly but not always helpful.

There are few times where my bubble of expectations has burst to the extent that it has at Burgerij. For weeks I was passing their intended location getting hunger pangs from the posters they triumphantly advertised their burgers with. It was a lovely sunny day when their doors finally opened. I received a warm welcome and was seated promptly. There were 3, maybe 4 other tables being served at the moment. In other words, it wasn’t busy. I was as giddy as a child on Christmas morning, when I got the menu. Having been salivating for the past weeks, it didn’t take long to make a choice. I went for a children’s burger with a slice of cheese. Simple. While waiting for my order to be prepared, I read their slogan at the bottom of their placemat and smiled «Most likely the best burgers you will ever taste»
When my order arrived. No cheese. That’s OK. It can happen when the team needs to get used to each other. I notified the waitress who promptly took my order back to the kitchen. When it came back, I couldn’t wait to post that beautiful burger on Instagram and took my first bite… wah wah wah (insert sad trombone sound effect here) They need to change their slogan to «Most likely the BLANDEST burger you will ever taste»
