If you are looking for a meal that will impress, then you have got to go to one of the four Truffle Burger locations in London.

The Truffle Honey Chicken Burger takes the cake for us, as the truffle honey glaze drips into each crevice of the crispy buttermilk fried chicken, is rounded off by a smooth and creamy whipped goats’ cheese and slathered in smoky bacon ketchup.

The finest British-supplied ingredients take centre stage at this restaurant, but this is not to be outdone by the lengthy procedures that go into serving up your stack. The beef patty alone is a carefully curated mix of North Yorkshire reared rib cap, brisket and short rib that marinades together during their 60-day dry age process to create the most succulent patty. Crammed into a freshly baked brioche French soft bun, the tender patty is crowned with smoked double crispy bacon sourced from Colchester which adds another rich element of Unami, softened by the Bang Bang Burger sauce and pickle and mustard jam.
