Lucked out with the lunch deal (Monday to Friday 11:30-16:30) - 13.95 for burger/sandwich with small fries and drink. I opted for the black & blue dry aged beef burger, which was hands down the best burger I've ever had (by a mile). The staff members were lovely as well.

Reviews
We absolutely love BMB. Ever since it's 1st wee set up in the city centre, we have gone back to it every few months for our fix of their delicious burgers, poutines and welcoming atmosphere. The one on Great Western Road is now our favourite. We can book tables and reserve booths and the staff are very friendly and welcome you back as friends. A big shout out to them all especially Paul (aka Eddie from Stranger Things!). Never stops smiling and even shares handy tips for the best pubs nearby. We were there last night with our friend and it was his 1st time and he absolutely it. Husband gutted that the Royale with cheese is now off the menu (must pause for a mo to grieve). We do hope they bring it back. Overall, big thumbs up. Great for just a date night or even with family.
Read on Google MapsSpew meats bog. A simple thing like a tiny little sheet of greaseproof paper would stop the burger(s) being a congealed mess stuck to a box ! That's after your order has done a tour of Glasgow and took the best part of an hour to make it to Partick ! On top of THAT I woke at 3am having to puke it up ! Under no circumstances can I recommend this place. AVOID !!!!!
Read on Google MapsExcellent place for a burger. Staff were very efficient and friendly and the spicy chicken burger was excellent. The chips were freshly made and piping hot as well. Half price for students on Mondays as well.
Read on Google MapsHad to read the menu again the strangest burger I've ever eaten. Need to go back for one of them not recommended for diabetics. The food will send you into a diabetic coma.
