The best nights out start with brilliant cocktails and finish with even better burgers.
And there’s only ONE place to go for the most EPIC burgers in Manchester: Almost Famous.
Up a spooky staircase, along a graffiti covered coridor and across a bar area that could have been designed by Willy Wonka himself, you’ll find the ultimate grown-up playground.
Complete with loads of colourful, witty artwork…
A table full of candy (#homegoals right there!!)…
And many a roll of kitchen towel!!
The menu is any child’s dream come true (and any calorie-counter’s worst nightmare).
Now, I’m a bit of a burger connoisseur (a.k.a. I eat burgers far too often for my own good) and I happen to live just across the street from one of London’s best burgers, so I had my doubts…
…but they quickly fadded away!
Johnny Mac.
Double beef patty, Applewood & cheddar cheese, streaky bacon, trailer trash onions, Cool Doritos, Million Island sauce & Winning ketchup.
A true beast with a lil’ mac & cheese ball on top! (def. get your greedy hands on some more of those if you can!!)
Down & Out (in Beverly Hills)
American & cheddar cheese, Wonderdust hotdog melt, trailer trash onions, French’s mustard, Winning ketchup Million Island sauce.
Hot dog melt! It’s a thing, people!! (and a delicious, delicious one at that!!)
Phoenix fries. A.k.a. fries on steroids (and with more cheese on top).
So bad but soooooooo gooooood!
And a tiny lil’ bit of coleslaw for the vitamin intake (LOL!)
And with the whole thing just coming up to £25, going back to reality was quite harsh if perfectly signaled!
My only regret? That I didn’t get to try more things.
Don’t do the same mistake. Grab all your favourite people (or at least the ones that’ll let you try their food!), go early and order it all!
And make sure you tag me (@sndguerin) in all your drool-worthy pics! Or if you’re looking for an extra person and you don’t mind me gobble-ing down all the mac & cheese balls, I’ll be more than happy to help out!
