The best burgers in town! I love me a cheeseburger on most occasions, but save my visits to fast food joints as last resorts. Somewhere, between 1eu McDonald's burgers and 7eu beef monsters from Oma's are the Jim Block burgers - fresh, affordable, quick and really really tasty - on a a plate with a knife and fork.

A burger will set you back between 3-5 euros, depending on the size (regular vs. "Jim Block burger" or something of the sort). Expect to stand in line quite a bit during the evenings, and try to get one of your party to physically reserve seats for you while you're ordering, otherwise you'll be eating standing up.

Well recommended for a quick dinner minus the junkfood guilt.

It was Saturday and both having full blow hangovers and in need of some serious carbs, meat, grease and salt to soak up some of that seedy feeling we set out to find Jim block.
My friend being from the US and eager to have a good burger something which he had not had since being in Hamburg. After 3 hours of trying to find it and a parking space in the very crowded centre of Hamburg we finally made it to our destination.
I must admit I expected a little more from the burgers... huge in size yes and the service was quick and the place has a nice feel to it but other then that I can't say that the burgers were all that great. I personally feel the one I had at Hollywood canteen was much better...

Still there are more burgers to try on the menu and maybe it was just the one I ordered and it definitely beats MacDonald's and even Hesburger which you all know I'm rather fond of after a night out.

If you're looking for a decent quality, cheap burger in Hamburg, check out Jim Block. I recommend the Country Burger with cheese. 7 Euros for a monstrous and tasty burger with chips. The quality of meat here is excellent.... infinitely better than Mcdonalds or Burger King. The german's haven't quite reached GBK or Fine Burger co. standards, but you'd be hard pressed to find a better burger in Hamburg.

Remember to loosen you belt a couple of notches before you go in :)

Firstly Jim Block is a kingly fast-food burger joint. I had the 180g cheeseburger (cost €7.10) and it was excellent. They use the same meat as the Block House steakhouse apparently.

unfortunately it became the most expensive meal I've ever had because someone stole €150+ out of my wallet as I ate in there. Thinking back I remember how it will have happened... I sat on the outside, next to the aisle. I hung my jacket on the next chair along. Three guys came in and stood next to my chair for a number of minutes - I guess one of them must have bent down and pretended to do his shoe laces (or something) while stealing my money.

Thankfully they left my cash cards, and strangely they left my 20 pound note, so it wasn't a complete disaster. I have no money for the rest of the week though... :'(
