POP Burger New York

The majority of reviews here will be about places in Brighton, UK but I happen to be on holiday at the moment. I'm a big fan of burgers and anyone who says that you should try and avoid food like this is plainly mad.

POP Burger is a simple diner style place. The back room only opens after 5pm so I had to get a take-away as it was very busy at lunch time. My wife Beryl had gone to meet some friends and I planned to stay there and eat and people watch, but as the place was busy I got a take-away. The place is populated by hipsters, teenagers, college kids, tourists and office workers. Which I hoped would indicate that POP must be doing something write.

I ordered The POP Burger (2) with cheese and Fries.

Basically you get two small burgers. I was hoping that I would get two of the large burgers I saw people eating. I can't really blame POP for that presumption, as that was probably a bit greedy on my part.  As Sting so eloquently put it  'I'm An Englishman In New York' (for the record I'm not an illegal alien as I got my ESTA USA travel visa.

The burgers are filling and although my initial reaction was "they're a bit small" I found them to be very satisfying. The fries are amazing, very crispy and soft in the middle and they are served in a paper cup.

Pudding Rating: 7 for the burgers and 10 for the fries.
