See why I say this is probably the best burger joint in town. Check out my review on Zomato @pilot_foodie94 or you can search BGR rosebank on the app or website

This place makes damn good burgers ! The simplicity and quality is top drawer. Service was great and the beer cold. Couldn’t ask for a lot more.

Hands down one of the best burgers out there. If youre searching for a burger that reminds you of a delicious, home-made burger, BGR will not disappoint you. I will go back time and time again.

BGR - Rosebank100% pure beef smash American style burgersDefinitely THE BEST take out/fast food burger Ive had in JHBYou can actually tell youre eating good quality beef unlike most fast food joints out thereAll toppings ( besides bacon ) are free, so you can basically build your own burger with whatever you want. FOR FREE

Found a slice of In n Out at BGR, South Africa. Best burgers in JoBrug hands down. Beef patties are super fresh (not frozen) and they have a free of charge lemonade refill system which I love! Highly recommend

Best burger! But too many delivery issues to even bother with that; go sit down. Its worth the trip. I dont understand the delivery packaging.

Really great burgers and fries! These just dont travel well, avoid ordering if you live more than 5min away. Best to dine in.

BGR has some simple, tasty American-style burgers that are always a treat to have. Not the best burgers in town but still high up on the list! Plus they are super affordable for the quality you get. However their sides let them down quite a bit. The chips aren’t bad but not the best. The chocolate frozen custard is mint flavoured (and for someone who hates mint ice cream, a warning would have been nice so I could have avoided ordering it). So the milkshake and mixed frozen custard I ordered I ended up not eating. So a bit disappointing but definitely go through to try their burgers!

I love the cheese burger, but their Herb Loaded is also fantastic for the vegetarians or ones who dont feel like having meat.

Review №14

Absolutely shocking service. The order came out wrong, the music was so loud the cashier couldnt hear a word when taking out order. The tables were left with previous customers rubbish and not a single table was wiped down and sanitised to protect their customers. Never again.

I ordered the Cheese Burger (mediocre at best) and French Fries. The quality and quantity of the food were disappointing and overpriced.

Burger was fine. Except we order 3 burgers1. no garnish - it came with garnish2. The works + jalapeño- it came with no jalapeño3. The works + bacon- it came with jalapeño and baconThen we ordered 2 x coke floats and a sparkling water. We got 1 sparkling water and 2 x cokes… waited 15 minutes and still no coke float (we had to go to the counter to ask for our coke float)The gentleman taking our order couldn’t be bothered, in fact I think we were bothering him. Every part of our ordered he struggled to hear, until we suggested putting the music lower. 🤷🏻‍♀️BGR is like many small independent restaurants in the time of Covid. Balancing number of staff VS number of orders and sit down customers VS Uber eat orders (I heard the Uber chime off the hook)I can only say, it’s Thursday night before a long weekend and they got it dismally wrong!Either pause Uber and focus on your sit down customers or close your doors to sit down customers. Never ever ever compromise on quality, that will ensure burger lovers like us will go back to supporting the big competition RocomamasOn a positive the lovely female waitress (only 1 waitress for the whole store) did everything in her power to fix what the kitchen and the order taker got so dismally wrong

BGR was a great experience. The beef burger comes alive with a splash of jalapenos and bacon strips. I will definitely come back for more.

Review №23

Its great quick service. Its not the most amazing burger to have but beats a lot of burgers in Johannesburg hands down. I am in search for the best burger. They have vegan options.At the moment they are not taking in cash just swiping due to Covid.Place is always clean.They let you choose your own toppings and they have a bacon option. Please add avo.Good burger overall.

Excellent burgers. Great patties and soft brioche bun. Service doesn’t match the quality food. I’d review some of your waitrons

Review №25

World class burger joint. It would not be an exaggeration to compare BGR to the likes of Shake Shack or Five Guys... they are that legit. Style is smashburger and you order single/double, with/without cheese and bacon, the rest of the toppings are free and your choice of what to add. The fries are perfectly cooked and crispy (many places in Joburg cant make decent fries). They offer a local lager beer and make shakes, too. Would go again and again.

Review №26

Best Burgers Ive ever had in my life! Plain and simple menu doing only the one thing that they are extremely good at - BURGERS!The service can be a bit faster sometimes and the thin fries tend to arrive a bit cold, but did I mention the Burgers?OMG!!Im living!

I LOVE THEIR BURGERS. I make a point of going at least once a quarter. Their wholesome patties and fresh ingredients are unmatched. Aint nothing like a BGR CHEESE BURGER!

After wandering in to a fairly industrial looking space with cold lighting and concrete floors, the friendly staff make it feel warm. This is by no means fast food, but if you have a little while to wait, do.The burger was a little oily, but incredibly tasty - the fries were fairly standard fare. Chocolate milkshake is fantastic and the inclusion of home-made lemonade and iced tea, and a craft beer on tap was very welcome.The menu structure is simple and easy: R65 for a cheese burger, R85 for a double (I think without cheese it was R5 cheaper) - burger price remains fixed whether you have all the toppings or none at all - with the exception of bacon, which is R25 extra.In summary, strange space with great staff, slow but wonderful and simple food and drink. I’ll definitely be back.

Review №35

The burgers with the American bacon were good and flavoursome.However, the chips were too crispy, but the supervisor was kind enough to request for a new batch to be made for us. Therefore, customer service-wise, they are wonderful and considerate. They need an increase in the drink option, because they are serving burgers. A good drink is a need.

Review №38

Not your average take away - their burgers might not be huge, but they more than make up for it with flavour!Also, their unique way of assembling the burgers based on what you order with certain flat rate charges makes their menu very basic, but incredibly versatile. I will definitely pop in whenever Im in the area again - by far one of the best burgers Ive had in Joburg!

This place is all about good food and by food I mean burgers. These are categorically the best burgers in Johannesburg (if not the world). The decor is a link rusty but charming in an industrial cool kinda way. Parking should be an issue but somehow you always find something.

Review №58

Supposedly the best burger in town. I have some been there 3 times, each time to take someone else there to brag. However, each time my order has been messed up and incorrect. I finally complained on Thursday last week after my 3rd and FINAL visit here. I will not be back as once again I had to wait over 30 minutes for my order to be corrected, in a completely empty restaurant, which is always empty, not to my surprise. I highly suggest you have a hard long look at your business and operations as you have just lost a customer, and cost me more than R700 in poor experiences in your establishment. Thanks.

Probably the best fast food burger in town. American diner feel. Youll have the opportunity of shaping your burger to how you please. No frills, no fuss type of a place. The meat patty is delicious and cooked to perfection. First Thursdays is a good day to go but the place will be quite busy toward the end of the evening so the wait can be longer than expected

I had the double cheeseburger and fries and was blown away. These burgers are really really good. The menu is simple - choose either a double or single patty burger and add a number of fairly standard toppings of your choice. Well priced, will be back.

Delicious burgers. Brings back memories of Five Guys and Shake Shack. Yum for days. But the actual restaurant is a bit noisy.
