Trist och oinspirerat

Burgers and Steaks

Burgers and Steaks huserar i foodcourten i Hallarna köpcentrum i Halmstad. Menyn består i huvudsak av burgare men menyn rymmer även diverse kötträtter, bl.a. revbensspjäll. Vårt val blev en ”Mikes Burger” med sallad, lök, ost och dressing för 99 kronor. Burgaren såg skaplig ut när den kom in även om köttets utseende skvallrade om att det hade varit fryst innan tillagning.

Och visst, våra farhågor besannades redan vid första tuggan. Det här var inget färskmalt kött, utan en fryst, homogen och kompakt köttpuck på 140 gram som tillagats. Smakmässigt var den ganska tråkig, och den hade inte mycket köttsmak att tala om. Brödet var i alla fall snäppet bättre och var trevligt fluffigt och mjukt. Det smakade visserligen inte särskilt mycket det heller, men konsistensen var åtminstone bra. Vi uppskattade även att det hade värmts på stekbordet innan servering. Grönsakerna, dressingen och osten var det inget fel, men inget stack heller ut som något positivt.

Burgarna är lika oinspirerande som deras namn, och när konkurrensen bland Sveriges hamburgerställen ständigt blir hårdare så duger det helt enkelt inte med kompakta fryspuckar. Smakmässigt i den här prisklassen är Burgers and Steaks definitivt ett bättre val än de närliggande snabbmatskedjorna, men det här är ingenting värt att ta en omväg för.

Burgers and Steaks are located in the Hallarna Köpcentrum foodcourt in Halmstad, in the south of Sweden. Their menu contains various meat dishes, but mainly burgers of course. We ordered a ”Mikes Burger”, with a 5 oz patty, lettuce, onions, cheese and a burger dressing for 99 SEK (approximately 11 USD). The actual burger looked alright at first glance, but the patty looked like it had been frozen before they cooked it.

And our worries were confirmed after the first bite. This wasn’t a freshly ground patty, but a pre-frozen and compact piece of meat. It hardly tasted of meat at all, and was just chewy and boring. The bun was alright, even though it didn’t taste that much either, but it was at least soft and fluffy. We also liked that they’d heated it on the griddle as well. The vegetables, dressing and cheese didn’t garner any complaints, but they didn’t really pop either.

Burgers and Steaks’ food is just about as uninspired as their name, and now that the competition has heated up in Sweden we need more than frozen patties. Sure, they’re better than a fast-food joint, but they’re far from worth a detour.

🍔 Review № 1381

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @black_bear_burger ★★★★☆

Black Bear Burger is one of the veterans of the modern burger wave in England, and we have tried their burgers several times since our first review in 2017. Over the years, Black Bear Burger has received more and more attention and hype, both domestically and internationally, and today they are one of the most well-known burger restaurants in all of England. They have locations at nearly 10 places around London, and we visited their restaurant inside the Market Halls Victoria food hall and ordered their Double Miso Bacon Burger – the same burger that won them the National Burger of the Year 2025 award. The burger contained double patties, double cheese, smoked bacon and their miso butter mayo, and it cost 15.8 GBP (21 USD).

The burger looked exactly as we remembered it, with pre-formed patties and a pale bun covered in a generous layer of sesame seeds. The bun was soft and fluffy, but just like on our previous visits, we felt that the crust-like amount of sesame seeds took over both in terms of flavour and texture. The meat was of high quality as always and had a nice and potent dry-aged character that they are known for. The meat could have been juicier though, as it felt a bit too compact this time. The bacon was super tasty and crispy, just the way we like it, and the onion also contributed a nice texture. Their miso butter mayo was very flavourful with its buttery, salty, and umami-rich taste, but together with the bacon and the beef, the overall flavour profile was a bit too salty. We would have liked to see some kind of freshness to break up the saltiness for a more complete experience.

We are very happy that a veteran like Black Bear Burger continues to deliver high-quality burgers year after year, and they are still a safe bet when you are craving a really good burger in London.
