Update (26th Jan 2024):
While I understand that business cost are going to be passed onto the customer, Meat:Stack's steep increase in price over the past year have made it less value for money that it used to be.
£15.45 for a burger, a side of chips and a refillable drink is verging on the side of sit down restaurant prices.
Meat:Stack is by far the best burger spot in the North East. The consistent quality of the food put out is outstanding.
I visited Meat:Stack this week and had their September special, the 'That Gochujang-thang'. This consisted of Spicy Block and Bottle Black Pudding, Korean Style BBQ Sauce, Smoky Mountain Mayo, House Green Relish, Pickled Chillies, lettuce and crushed peanuts. The burger had a satisfying umami experience, accompanied by a delightful sharp and tangy quality through the BBQ sauce and Mayo. While spicy, this burger doesn't knock your head off which makes it even better.
To accompany this I had fries (which were light and fluffy) and a refillable drink, opting for the cherry coke option.
Cost: Burger (double patty) = £9.5 Meal Upgrade (Fries and refillable drink) = £3.5 Total =£13
I am more than happy to pay this price for the quality of ingredients and cooking.
Dining in is a great experience, the interior is well decorated and throughout with a mixture of seating for groups or a person on their own. It is also always really clean with staff promptly cleaning tables etc after a patron leaves.
Just the kind of place you go out your...
Read moreOrdered a takeaway to be delivered,quarter pounder with beef dripping fries and an extra portion of parmesan and truffle fries. Now I have to say I only leave feedback that is true, I'm the very first to leave positive feedback when it's justified and likewise feedback when my interaction has been negative. However, the purpose of feedback so others can make an informed decision when it comes to ordering food from this establishment. Haters will always hate. The burger was tasty but very small so be warned when it arrives not to expect what you'd expect for the price (a double whopper burger from Burger King is far bigger and just as good) Now beef dripping fries? hmmm not entirely sure they have been near any beef infused dripping at all, just tated like skin on oven fries and same goes for the parmesan and truffle fries that were over a fiver! in my opinion were like, again, skin on oven fries splashed with truffle oil and sprinkled with hard cheese. The top and bottom of it all is this, cheapest isn't always the best However, when you decide to splash out on a fancy burger joint and pay good money you have expectations that are, quite rightly high. So if you haven't ordered from this place before as I hadn't, don't expect the best quality nor large portions. Get yourself a Burger King and have better portions sizes and just as good quality for around half the price.
Meat stack, from my experience does not represent good value for...
Read moreIt's been a long time since I've been to Newcastle nearly 2.5yrs. And much has been vacated in terms of bars and pubs. However I was told to try Meat Stack. After a brief wander I found it although it seemed quiet, service was friendly but with its menu and offers I opted to try the all in consisting of double cheeseburger, 2 chicken tenders , fries, 2 dips and a soft drink or beer. It was her ei spotted a missed favourite PBR past blue ribbon beer beloved of so many including Macklemore but more for my time in Milwaukee working. It did not take too long for the meal. It was impressive fries were crisp and the ranch dip superb. What I did not expect were the chicken tenders I say OMG, the coating was insane and dipped in ranch just stunning chicken as moist as can be. I savoured every morsel and I mean every morsel. The cheeseburger was next and right up there with many moist and flavourful patties. However such was the impression of the chicken whilst speaking to one of the staff he recommended the garlic tenders. Another PBR beer as well. Well despite a dip been offered the chicken tender drenched in a good way. The garlic butter was somehow a sweeter tang to it was informed they add maple syrup as well. Just brill, if it wasn't for the fact I was as happy a sa oig in the proverbial mire, ii would stay and try more. Its that good, some if not the best chicken tenders ever. Seriously if its a burger or chicken tenders this is the...
