Best Burgers in Wexford Town

vicwatson

Now, I don't mean the mass-produced frozen ones that every chipper in the country seems to have, that have zero taste.

I'm talkin' gourmet !!!

Have had a great buger in the bar in the Talbot Hotel before.

Is there anywhere else in Wexford, likes of a gourmet burger company or Bobos in Dublin?

I'm a big fan on the US TV show "Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives" (Food Network - Sky Ch. 262) and I've often sit watching it and thought that a really good Burger or BBQ joint would do well in Wexford.

Eddie Rockets springs to mind (not that there is one in Wexford)... but the food is only really average and the prices are a bit OTT.

Simple, tasty, fresh food, done well, good portions, decent prices... it'd be a huge hit I reckon.

Cappuccinos used to do a steak and hog burger (burger with bacon) on a sesame seed bun. Was lovely but was a few years ago when I had it.

I reckon Wexford is crying out for a no-nonsense, American style burger restaurant. I live in Berlin, and though everything is cheaper here, I´d say there's nothing stopping someone from opening a sit-down burger restaurant that's a cut above your average take-away, does burgers for about 10 or 12 euro, and maybe some deals with a beer too.

I think the town really needs somewhere for casual eating out in the evening, as in you go for your burger, maybe some people don't wanna eat and just have a drink, and you stay for a few afterwards as well.

It works everywhere else!

I was in Thomas Moore Tavern there a while back watchin a match and got a burger, think it was around €9-10 decent enough too now that I think of it.

Thing with Wexford is that come evening time the restaurants switch to the evening menu and the prices sky rocket. Then you have the fact that people dont really socialise over food here.

Often been out with friends and mentioned going to a restaurant to sit down for a meal, have a few drinks then go back to the pub. Was too foreign a concept to them and the best compromise was going to the premier or uncle sams to stuff crap into us as fast as we could and then back to the pub.

Think a casual burger joint that isnt fast food might actually bridge the gap somewhat but not sure if there would be enough interest in it to make it worthwhile for anyone.

I'm told the bowling alley does a great burger but havent ventured out there to try it myself, thought it worth a mention.
