Smoque Grill

Life is hard.
Sometimes, all you want to do is be alone and stuff your face.
Smoque Grill is my anti-​depressant.
I sit in my red reading chair, pull the coffee table as close as I can towards me, place the burger down directly in front of me and rest the open fries on the arm of the chair. If I need an extra little pick-​me-​up, you might see some chicken pops resting alongside the burger.
Do not tell me that getting married or having your first child is «the best day of your life» until you have experienced this.
I prefer the chicken burgers to the beef burgers. The chicken burgers are my favourite takeaway chicken burgers. My recommendation is the Cajun Steak Chicken Burger for those who like a little spice. The beef burgers are fine, perhaps even great for takeaway, but not exceptional. They are sometimes just a little too greasy and lack that beefy goodness that you expect from a great beef burger. They are pretty damn filling, though.
All burgers can be served in either a brioche or soft flour bun.
The majority of the meals from Smoque come in four different options: Single, Regular, Large and XL. If you’re not a big eater, the single is plenty. If you’re feeling pretty hungry, a regular will more than satisfy your hunger. If you need help sleeping, go for a large. If you want to put yourself in a 48-​hour food coma, go for XL.
The fries are pretty much your standard, skinny french fries. The cajun fries have a welcome kick.
Oh, the chicken pops. You might not always need them, but you’ll always want them. They are cute and succulent and come with sweet chilli dip. They are like a middle-​class version of KFC’s popcorn chicken.
Delivery can be pretty slow. I’ve ordered a few times over the last year and every time delivery has taken around an hour and a half.
But this gives you time to work up an appetite. To pull out your favourite chair and to pull up your favourite side table.
Recline and stuff. You’ve earned this.

Smoque grill has apparently won loads of awards for their burgers, hmmmm they are good but hardly award winning. Don’t be fooled into thinking this is some sort of high end burger place like burgers brothers or even trolls (high end in terms of quality of burger I mean) if u do you will be disappointed. This strikes me as a fave with students who want a decent burger rather than the usual takeaway shite being peddled.
The burgers are good. They can be huge and will sit like a stone in your stomach. The coleslaw with bacon is great, the fries very average.
The banoffee pie is great. It’s always mobbed so they must be doing something right but a rival to burger brothers it ain’t! Probably deserves 3.5 in all honesty.

If you like chicken burgers, Smoque Grill is just about as good as it gets.
I came across Smoque Grill after reading a ‘top 10 places to buy a burger in the UK’ article in a national newspaper (can’t remember which on) and Smoque Grill was in there! I thought ‘how on EARTH have I not tried a burger from them yet?!’ So I away I ordered!
I have had a cheeseburger from them before, which to be honest, wasn’t anything out of the ordinary, but my other half had a Cajun Chicken Burger, of which I had to have a bite! That was that for me — their chicken burgers are amazing!
I’ve ordered from Smoque about 5 times now, and get the Cajun chicken burger every time. It’s just so good! They also sell things like hash browns, onion rings, chips and so on. They also sell these delicious little chicken nugget-​type bites called ‘chicken pops’ — so tasty!!!
I also like that when they deliver your food, it come with a little bag with salt, pepper, vinegar, tomato sauce, and a toothpick inside for afterwards! Nice touch :)
I’d definitely say go try a Smoque Grill chicken burger. They are sooo damn delicious!

Well is International Cheeseburger Day, what better place to get a cheeseburger from?
Easily the best burger you can get delivered to your door in Brighton, easily! That’s why I keep using it.
All home made patties, big ones too! The double burger is so big you can’t fit it in your face without smothering your chin and cheeks in Mayo. This is no bad thing!
So good they have won national accolades coming in the top 10 in Hungry House’s best UK takeaway!
Burgers are amazing. They also do pizza and kebabs. The only slight thing that let them down are the multi pack fries and onion rings. If these went homemade/​handcut, this place will be perfect!!!
Very reasonably priced! One of the best takeaways brighton has to offer. The shop itself has a limited number of seats if you decide to go there. Something I’ve done as it’s on my route home from work!
