Belles Burgers — Restaurant in Hobart

Had a lovely meal here. Nice atmosphere and within a reasonable price range. I don't know what it says but the Belles pickles was the standout menu item. Lovely little pieces all pickled differently. Sweet, spicy, complex flavours... I had the Fried Chicken Kimchi burger which came off as a super yummy chicken and coleslaw burger. The disappointment was in a) no detectable kimchi flavour and b) no detectable kimchi spice. This is a pity, as I love the flavour profile of kimchis and this could have escalated the experience beyond! Also the Belles Cheeseburger was a good burger but the bun ever so slightly burnt. We ordered the cauliflour nuggets which were fine but I was left wanting here as well. The coating was very understated in flavour, perhaps due to presence of dipping sauce, which brings me to main pain point. It was served with (I want to say) a tahini dipping sauce except it was not a sauce consistency. More like peanut butter smear. So it was a bit tough to actually dip. Perhaps it was only meant as a spread... who knows. But on flavour it didn't provide a great accompaniment for me personally. I would have preferred something a but lighter, more tangy, spicier sweeter even. The staff were so lovely and friendly and it is a real testament to the quality that I felt, despite wanting many tweaks, happy with my meal. Just...you know when you can identify so easily how it could hace been a knock out it's almost tougher to accept than a straight up bomber of an experience because perfection was so much closer within reach? Gahh! But kimchi burger definitely needs to boost it's kimchiness. In...

Had heard a few good things about Belles Burgers so finally got the chance to go and check it out for myself.

On entering was greeted with a friendly member of staff, who after signing myself in let me choose where to sit. I chose the wi dow seat looking over Kangaroo Bay as it was a great afternoon for looking at the boats on the water.

They have a nice selection of burgers on offer (hopefully the photo of the menu shows you). A few sides on offer and a decent amount of drink options.

I went for the classic burger with a side order of seasoned fries (I know.....really adventurous eh!) And to wash it down went for something I haven't had in years, a milkshake. My order roughly came around to $25.

They had a few patrons in there but I didn't have to wait long for my order. The fries were the shoestring variety and were tasty and crunchy. The burger had plenty of flavour as did the milkshake. I did feel that both the burger and shake were somewhat slightly smaller in portion than I would have liked.....but this could also be because I was quite hungry. Although I don't really feel this takes away from the value as the food was delicious and all within a...

Without doubt the worst meal I've had in many years. Firstly how long can it take to cook two small burgers and fries? A long time apparently. My wife lifted her tiny burger (that looked nothing like the photo in the app we ordered on) and it basically imploded, cheese and sauce spilling out everywhere. My fish burger started out ok, but didn't appear fully cooked in the middle and included a big piece of fish skin that wasn't visible and that made me gag. The fries were supposedly cheese and bacon jam - unfortunately the cheese and jam didn't make the trip 😕 And please tell me why the music has to be so bloody loud that you have to shout to hear the person seated 2 feet away from you? How this place rates 4.6 is a...
