THE Best Burgers in Southampton


We went with friends on a busy Saturday night for an evening full of laughter and good food. We arrived around 6.30ish to a packed out restaurant, served by the lovely Lucia, we left our number so they could give us a ring when the table for four was ready. 7 Bone is incredibly popular so it's location, surrounded by many bars and pubs is ideal for when there's a slight wait for a table. We headed across the road for a quick drink and was back in 7 Bone half hour later ready to order our food.

On the advice of my friends I went with the ever so popular Prince Charles is Overrated burger, doubling up the patty of med-rare aged beef. The patty is teamed with bacon, cheese, shredded iceberg lettuce, pickles and their incredible special recipe dirty spread served in a soft, brioche bun. The portions are generous so I shared the Dirty Fries which are smothered in dirty spread, lettuce and bacon pieces with the boyfriend while he tucked into a Peter Green patty made with American mustard, chillis and jalapenos. 

When the burger arrived I was a little unsure how to conquer it but armed with a few pieces of kitchen roll I just got stuck in. 7 Bone is a messy business but 100% worth it. Probably not first date material unless dirty spread dribbling down your dates chin is your thing. I won't judge.

If the food doesn't completely satisfy your palate then the drinks menu should. With local craft beers, soft drinks, shakes and floats plus a pretty delicious cocktail menu, there is something for everyone. I had such a fab evening at 7 Bone, the food was out of this world, the atmosphere was buzzing and Lucia was absolutely wonderful, I haven't had such attentive service in so long and I'd go back for that reason alone. After settling up the bill, the rest of my Saturday night was spent in a food coma. Exactly how I like to spend my weekends.

If you have any burger recommendations then let me know! Especially if they're South Coast based, I'm not sure any can beat 7 Bone.
