Burger Bangs - Hamburger Restaurant Kristiansand — Restaurant in Kristiansand

As soon as I walked inside, I was impressed by the friendliness of the man who was taking my order. Big smile, beaming with positive energy, quick to recommend different menu options, without being pushy. Ended up ordering a burger with cheese and bacon, and cheesy fries with more bacon. And sprite, because anyone who ever watched Pulp Fiction knows that you cant have a tasty burger without a sprite. Anyway, told the man that I was thinking of trying out their chicken wings, but didn't think I could fit that much food in me, so he said he'd add 2 pieces of chicken for free, so I can try it out. That's some seriously good service. After 15-20 mins my food was served, and there it was in all it's glory. Crispy fried chicken, juicy beef burger, and bacon both in main and side dishes, forming the holy trinity of meat, causing my heart to beat faster just by looking at this culinary magnificence. And boy howdy did it not disappoint. The chicken had perfectly crunchy exterior with juicy interior. Thick and thin fries with very satisfying texture, packed full of flavour, even more complimented by the melted cheese, the sauce and the bacon. The fantastic burger, covered in tastefully chosen toppings, in-between perfectly toasted brioche buns, forming together explosion of flavours that caused my mind to wander off and think of writing poetry as I was eating. After a while of drifting away into the world of beef I had to get myself together, as I realised that two tables away there was what seemed like a newly met tinder couple, sharing a tender moment together, wich I didn't want to spoil by eating like an animal. So I composed myself, finished my meal with some dignity, and took a huge satisfying sip of Sprite. Nothing beats full sugar Sprite after a burger.

But to finish off this unnecessarily detailed 'review', let me add this: I found this place by an accident. I'm in Kristiansand for a day, to take care of unrelated business. It was merely a coincidence that I got hungry as I was passing by, and decided to give this place a try. But now that I did, I can confidently say that this will be the highlight of my trip to Kristiansand.

Fantastic food. Would...

A delicious burger with the most buttery patty I've ever had, I'm genuinely curious about the meat used because it just melts in your mouth. I got the bbq burger, and I love a messy burger, so I was very happy with the messy bbq sauce and extra pieces of caramelized onion that dropped from it as I ate. Lots of flavor, and a very good homemade bbq sauce. We also got the atomic chicken burger, which I will definitely get next time as that was packed with flavor and the chicken was so tender. The fries aren't super flavorful but they're perfectly crispy with a soft inside and pair perfectly with any of the homemade sauces you can choose from. Not super greasy either, which I appreciate.

Editing to add the chicken tenders I ordered while waiting out the rain, made fresh to order and with an incredibly crispy and well seasoned panko crust. And the honey chili sauce they pair with it is so good, a prefect balance of sweet and heat.

The menu is small, with only 7 burger options but you can tell they put a lot of thought into them and it's not just a menu with 20 fad burgers is refreshing. The ingredients are high quality and very clearly fresh and made to order. Only hiccup we had was having to go up and let them know we ordered through their online system after about 5 minutes of not knowing where to look for our order (online says something about a customer order screen but none are in sight), prompting them to say they're starting it now. So I think the ordering system could be improved, as I'm unsure if they have a notification sound for in-restaurant orders vs Wolt/Foodora, which are already hard to hear...

En Smakseksplosjon!

Hvis du er på jakt etter en burgeropplevelse som virkelig smeller, må du ta turen til Burger Bang! Dette stedet har potensielt den beste burgeren i byen.

Vi bestilte BBG-burgeren med fries, og wow, for en kombinasjon! Burgeren var saftig, perfekt grillet, og toppet med akkurat riktig mengde BBQ-saus som ga en perfekt balanse mellom søtt og røkt. Og friesene? Sprø utenpå, myke inni, og akkurat passe salte – det er nesten som de har funnet opp en ny standard for fries!

Maten ble servert utrolig raskt, noe som er en bonus for oss som ofte er sultne og utålmodige. Hyggelig betjening som smilte bredt og sørget for at vi følte oss velkommen fra første stund. De var raske og effektive.

Alt i alt, Burger Bang leverer på alle fronter: smak, service og atmosfære. Hvis du ikke har vært der ennå, løp og kjøp! Dette er virkelig en burgeropplevelse du ikke vil gå glipp av. Stor tommel opp fra oss! 🍔🍟💥

En Smakseksplosjon – men nå med blandede følelser

Jeg besøkte Burger Bang for første gang for omtrent en måned siden, og det var virkelig en fantastisk opplevelse! Burgeren var saftig, perfekt grillet, og toppet med akkurat riktig mengde BBQ-saus. Friesene var sprø utenpå, myke inni, og akkurat passe salte. Servicen var rask og vennlig, og alt i alt var det en burgeropplevelse jeg absolutt ville anbefale.

Oppdatering etter nytt besøk: Vi besøkte stedet igjen søndag 25.08.2024 rundt kl. 18.00, og dessverre var opplevelsen denne gangen langt fra den første. BBG-burgeren vi bestilte var bløt og vannete, og burgerbrødet var så vått at det knapt lot seg kutte med kniv. Dette ødela virkelig hele måltidet, og det føltes som om vi fikk servert en helt annen rett enn sist.

Det er skuffende å se et sted med så stort potensial levere en så inkonsekvent matopplevelse. Forrige gang var vi begeistret, men denne gangen var det som natt og dag. Jeg håper virkelig at Burger Bang kan få kontroll på kvaliteten sin, for akkurat nå er det dessverre ikke det trygge valget vi...
