Location: GBK, The Brunswick Centre, Bloomsbury, WC1N 1AE
Order: 1 x Naked Chicken Burger + (eventually consistent) Sweet Potato chips, 1 x Bourbon St Burger +Sweet Potato chips, 1 x Oreo Milkshake, 1 x Brewdog Vagabond
Review: 3/5
Comment: A good burger. Had to wait for the fries. Wedged in, and a birthday thang happening too, which was loud given the terrible acoustics. Would go again, but only if it was empty!
