    Hatch Green Chile Burger for the win. (with or without bacon)

    Nothing else comes close.

    A&W and 5 Guys are both decent options if you have to go fast food. But generally speaking, I agree with the above -- the best burger is going to be from a local place, not a fast food place, not a big box chain restaurant, etc.

    5 guys I think is bit overrated. For us in the U.K. local burger places isn’t a thing we live on fast food joints saying that actually the best burgers is from these places qy3rlovkg80n.jpeg

    Never found a perfect burger at a fast food spot. If you’re ever in Toronto go to Rudy’s. Only two burgers on the menu but they are incredible.

    I was about to comment about your poor choice, but then I remembered that the UK has VASTLY different burgers in their fast food chains than we do here in the states. Anything from BK here in the states is mediocre at best (outside of their spicy chicken sandwich which was surprisingly good for a fast food sandwich).

    My favorite burger (from a fast food joint) is the avocado burger from Whataburger.
    Otherwise, a homemade burger with half beef/half buffalo or deer is my favorite. Especially with some good ghost pepper cheese and ground mustard and maybe some bacon.

    @KosmosKitten please spare me, the U.K. and burgers isn’t a thing, instead we are big on curries Chinese and Turkish food had taken off though saying that a lot more non chain burgers are opening up these days but none really that memorable.

    I think you misunderstand: Fast food joints that originated in the US are drastically different once they go overseas. Not necessarily better, but different. UK rules and regulations are different (and stricter) than the US ones that regulate how food is made, what is allowable filler, etc. Same with Japan. A burger from a Japanese McDonalds is drastically different tasting than one from here, for example.

    Burgers from BK here in the states are.. unremarkable as I recall.

    Perhaps you should head up a new trend: bringing tasty burgers to the UK.

    I like burgers from Cookout as far as fast food goes. Most memorable burgers I’ve tried was a southwest bison burger from a local restaurant where you can choose from various meats and then some burger with a avocado on it from Hooters.

    BK in the US can also vary from state to state. I can't remember exactly where it was in the Northeast US - but BK's were thick on the ground and some locations were quite large with very beautifully done interiors. For fast food - everything was very good. I've also been to US BK restaurants that offered food you wouldn't eat on a dare.

    Interesting I never knew this. Well I don’t know if you aware of Brexit but we may start adopting US regulation on food as those rules will start up ease. We don’t have chlorinated chicken but I believe soon we will.

    I like your thinking. You could be on yo something 🤔

    BRING ALL THE BURGERS TO THE BRITS (and other nationalities, too)! Burgers are so versatile.

    Was not aware Brexit would so vastly impact your food and drink administrations.

    What are chicken nuggets at fast food places like that? Uniform and weird like ours or actual chunks of chicken meat that are deep fried? I have questions since I've not been to the UK, but have been to other countries outside the US and they're all different (and serve different and interesting stuff) compared to the US locations (lookin' at you shrimp burger from McDonalds Japan).

    @KosmosKitten

    Bring all burger to the brits is a great strap line and YouTube channel lol

    Trust me brexit has opened up a whole lot of can of worms. There’s was kick back with them chlorinated chicken so now it’s will be an option fully labelled rather than regular. At the moment we get US imported stuff but it’s expensive because of tariffs so we only have a selection but that will change soon because our food won’t be regulated by the EU anymore.

    In regards nuggets well I’ve be surprised if there’s any chicken in it. There not much of a big thing here unless you go McDs.

    It’s true about other countries. I went to the Middle East and the kfc there is different to the U.K. for example you can get a bread roll with you meal in Middle East but not in U.K. unless it’s in a burger.
    A shrimp burger sounds amazing. You know we have just one bubba gump here and handful of taco bells. Not really big deal here.

    Wait what?! It shut down? I have to wait behind a line of 50 cars to get me some Chick fil A.

    It's a big deal here on the East coast
