Ladies, we know that burgers (and sandos) are a little bit of a contentious subject, virtually everyone thinks they’re messy. But if you are ready to get messy, this is for you. Dubai is rife with funky burger places with some gourmet, independent joints on Jumeirah Road and some large-scale global brands like Shake Shack.
While we want all to include every burger place here, these are just some joints that have upped their burger-game to another extreme and crafted burgers that have a flavour that still lingers on in our tastebuds.
*cue drumroll*
The Chicken Sando at Pickl
We may be a little biased but the Chicken Sando at Pickl *deffo* makes it on top of the list. The hormone-free, organic chicken is left to brine in green tea and then battered freshly every day. The burger is best paired with their skinny or spicy fries.
The Piña Colada burger at Lads Burger
“Pineapple doesn’t belong on pizza”, it does on burgers apparently?! The burger contains a chunk of grilled pineapple alongside beef bacon and melted cheese and the bun is drowned in pineapple-coconut sauce. You just have to trust us on this one.
Mr. Jones at Jones The Grocer
This burger is quite elite in that it is made from wagyu beef and topped with smoked beef bacon. The delicious cheese and lettuce on the inside add the perfect amount of freshness to the burger. Seriously, you need to go try this rn.
High Hamz at the High Joint
One of the most *iconic* faves in the city and also dominates TikTok, the High Hamz burger at the High Joint is packed with flavour. A beef patty, topped with cheese and bacon jam. A literal match made in food heaven.
The Texan Burger at Black Tap
A classic. This burger at Black Tap entails a beef patty, aged cheddar, delicious onion rings and mayonnaise. It is a go-to for anyone who visits Black Tap.
Truffle Truffle Burger at Ugly Burger
The unconventional, delicious burger is your perfect option when you’re in for a treat. The patty is delicious and drowned in truffle sauce. This burger is a go-to indulgent treat!
Mad Chicken at She Burger
A fresh chicken burger coated in a laban batter, I mean what more could we ask for? The lettuce, tomato and cheese give this burger that little bit extra freshness!
