Haché

Looks good from outside but the food is very average. I had a chicken burger and my parter had a regular cheese burger. We have also ordered a number of items from them on Deliveroo. We were the only people in the restaurant and the food was very average. You can get a burger at the Hawksmoor for the same price so why not go there instead?

I just didn’t really get this place — ok, it was 930pm on a cold and wet Wednesday night and we were in need of some serious fodder but I’m afraid the experience didn’t like up to the hype.
I thought the food was fairly decent but the surroundings just didn’t fit for me, as much as I am the living embodiment of the ‘Burger King’ I just felt that these surroundings were more suited to a nice classic restaurant as opposed to somewhere to cram a patty of beef down your throat.
The burger was tasty enough but I’ve has tastier (plus all the options were really boring even though there were about 10 different to choose from — I think I went for the Canadian just because I was that uninspired — bacon and cheese FTW…)
Good selection of beers though — I enjoyed the Otley ale they had on.
Not bad but the atmosphere in the restaurant was a bit flat and I’d rather hangout somewhere with a bit more of a ‘burgery’vibe!

Mmm, burger.
Haché is one of those places that is consistent always. You go to any one in London and they’ll make you a damn good burger. Not my favourite burger in London, but far far far from the worst. Better than some than even make the «top burgers in London» list.
It’s a casual atmosphere, with mirrors on the walls and giant stone angel wings guarding the bathroom doors. The menu is filled with different burger and non burger options (but mostly burger) and you will find one made the way you like.
Our server was super friendly, even when we asked her a million questions. Plus one to that.
The burger themselves are good, nice toppings, bread choices, solid meat. A tasty burger every time.
I have and will be back again, it’s never a fail.

I’ve been dying to go to Hache for quite some time now and yesterday it was finally time. Although I’m not one of those who really craves burgers what I do appreciate is a good burger and my gosh to Hache have them.
There theme, I feel, is most definitely gourmet and this is shown through the decadence of the venue itself. The atmosphere is relaxed formal and the design of the building itself is very rustic suave. Odd for a burger joint really but the menu suits this with their unusual and original burger options.
We started with nachos which were tasty. Standard nachos with all the trimmings and large dollops of them, with plenty of jalapeños which I liked. It was a great start to our meal.
I then opted for the Milano burger with extra bacon. The Milano burger had a Mediterranean twist being served with mozzarella, sun dried tomato sauce, and parmesan. I also had a side of wedges… The fatter the chip, the better!
The burgers came quickly and were presented well. I cut mine in half and the burger was cooked to perfection — perfectly medium rare and not over soggy (at first). It was, delicious. Every mouthful I enjoyed and I finished it all! Just a perfect combination of flavours and the bacon gave it that great salty addition — NOM!
The wedges were also good, standard really but I love wedges and hadn’t had them for ages so I was happy!
Overall it was a very pleasant evening — I’m still slightly unsure that the theme of the restaurant matches the burgers but hey, who am I to judge when they serve good food!

There are nights like that, where a good old burger is exactly what you need, and for those moments, you just wish that a Haché branch would be your neighbour. Their cheeseburger, although a classic, was super tasty, and the «brioche» bread turned out to be the right choice (you could go for the ciabatta). The meat, eventhough slightly undercooked for my taste, was top quality.
If you’re tired of classic fries, go for the sweet potato fries, or the wedges, both delicious ! Too bad they don’t offer any draught beer though.

I’ve got to agree with the reviewer Liz below:
This place is good but nothing to write home about.
I ordered the Canadian medium, which is simply a burger with cheddar and bacon along with potato wedges and The Cuban cocktail.
The cocktail was unbearably sweet, and although I’m never one to waste alcohol, I couldn’t make it through half of the drink.
The burger was good if not unspectacular.
The real star of the meal were the fresh/​hot potato wedges with garlicky mayo and salsa. These were quite good but as meals go, not worth returning for.
Definitely a bit of a letdown and unbefitting of its «best burger in town» billing.
As Liz stated I’m sure there are better burgers the locals know about as this place did seem to have more tourists than Londoners.

Never been at the place but ordered online many times from deliveroo. They make one of the best burgers in london. And i tried alot of burgers! Heaven in mouth. Recommended

On m’avait dit que le meilleur burger de Londres se trouvait chez Haché et le hasard a fait que je me suis retrouvé juste à côté à boire un verre. Ni une, ni deux, on se laisse tenter.
L’endroit est joli, convivial. Beaucoup d’anglais fêtent déjà Noël. Serre-​tête de rennes et crackers !
Bien sûr la carte est très complète en burger, il y aussi un large choix pour les végétariens.
1 burger chacun, 1 assiette de frites, 1 assiette d’Onion Rings, 1 milkshake et 2 verres de vin plus tard… Le service est très rapide, voir expéditif. Les gens né restent que peu de temps à table et en bons français nous né sommes pas habitués. A peine 1h20 pour le repas, j’en sors un peu frustré.
Et dans l’assiette? Le burger est très bon, sauf le steak haché. Quel comble pour un restaurant qui en porte le nom. Le pain, les oignons, le bacon sont un sans faute mais le steak, comme le dit si bien le chéri «on dirait un steak reconstitué» un peu à la MacDonald’s. Un steak tout fin qui n’a pas du tout le texture de viande. Ah quel dommage !
Les frites sont croustillantes et gouteuses à souhait. Petit bémol pour les Onion Rings, hyper gras et hyper gros mais bon quand même. Et finir hyper bien son repas avec un délicieux Milkshake Nutella Oréo à tomber par terre !

A friend and I made reservations for an early dinner. We walked in and were immediately charmed by the wait staff. Everyone was lovely.
As a burger fan, I typically don’t expect too much from a new place, so I was pleasantly surprised. I did not go for anything ‘special’, just the normal burger with cheese on a brioche bun. Gorgeous. Very tasty.
I will have to return to try out something new.

Wow I was impressed by this restaurant! We walked in and were immediately greeted and seated at our table. We ordered right away and had a very small wait time before our food arrived. Ironically, as an American, I was never a huge fan of burgers, but my time in London has changed my mind. I still rarely eat them because I prefer top notch, high quality burgers, and that’s exactly what I got at Haché. I had their Steak Milano — a burger with Parmesan cheese and a sundried tomato paste on a brioche bun and it was to die for!!! Make sure you get a side of sweet potato fries — they are outstanding!!! I cannot imagine ordering a burger anywhere else now that I’ve eaten at Haché! We would have had dessert but the meal was so filling that we couldn’t! The service is great, the ambiance is fun with soft lighting, exposed brick walls and top 40 music playing in the background. I would absolutely come here again and again and again!

AMAZING GOAT CHEESE burger!!! I am not a huge fan of portabello burgers but this one was incredible. Got it with the sweet potato frites and the english cocktail. Lovely evening and experience :)

Well, for a vegetarian, I’m a fan.
Actually only stumbled upon the place while looking for something not totally poncey and overpriced in Shoreditch. We found it.
BF ordered a burger with absolutely amazing cheese on it. I got the veg burger which was really super tasty… not dry, huge, laden with salad and presented on a tasty ciabatta bun. So big I could barely get my mouth around it.
I recommend the sweet potato frites: cooked just right, crispy on the outside, warm and lovingly soft internally.
Service was very friendly. The beers weren’t totally overpriced! We were shocked!
I won’t go on and on because I’d be repeating several recent reviews. Deffo a good, honest place to go for grub. Beats the hell out of The Diner a few doors down the street. It promises and delivers.

Dropped by on a Friday evening because we were in the area and they had space. Hache do fancy burgers in a variety of styles with various meats. We were tempted by the hoisin duck and the rosemary lamb, but opted for their more classic offerings.
Food: The food was good, but not mind-​blowing. My partner had a chorizo steak burger cooked medium, and it came perfectly pink and juicy. He loved it. I had a chicken «burger» — the honey moutard — which was okay. The chicken was tender and juicy, but lacking in flavour. And when you’ve got chicken, bacon, cheese, and a honey mustard sauce, you should have flavour! It was bland and I don’t recommend it. My waiter initially brought me the wrong fries, so my sweet potato fries were fresh from the fryer and very hot when they arrived. They were good, but a bit squidgy.
Service: good by London standards. Reasonably speedy, not in your face, and not rude. No complaints but nothing to write home about.
Ambience: the interior has a real Neverwhere vibe to it. Music is loud, the crowd is a mix of tourists and out of towners. Not a lot of Londoners or hipsters, probably because they know of better burgers with walking distance.
It was fine, but it didn’t impress. I’ve had better in walking distance, I just didn’t think to book ahead. Lesson learned.

My wife and I had been talking about going to he branch of Hache near South Kensington about a year ago. She had a recommendation from a work colleague. We never made the trek out there and that would be the end of a poor anecdote. However, while walking to another restaurant, we noticed another instance of Hache on Curtain Rd, near Old Street. I made a mental note to come here during my lunch hour.
I was thinking I might get take away, but it wasn’t clear that was an option. I just went with the flow and took a seat at one of the tables. There were not many people there, but this would mean a short waiting time.
I got the bacon burger (I forget the exact name they had for it) and a side of fries. You could choose the type of bun and I went for the brioche. Not as full of sauce as others I have tried and the bun held up well. It was layered with tasty ingredients. It was a good burger.
When I got the bill, it came with a little dish of Smarties, which was a cute touch.
I would be happy to come here with a group of people from work.

Very nice ambiance … You could even call it heavenly since there are two angel wing sculptures on the wall … It is chilled out and very much Shoreditch. Our waiter was super nice and helpful in making our choice easy. I liked the menu … Not over complicated, but original sounding burgers. They also serve green tee the proper way with tea strainer and not with tea bag.
Now to the real measurement: DESSERTS: I ordered the banofi pie … they indicated in the menu it’s too big for one person … Had to test! :) they were right it was massive and really tasty.

I liked it. Good variety of burger choices though menu is still straightforward and not overly complicated. It’s a very good value for money, delicious burger for under £10. In London, it’s a steal I say. I went for ‘protein style’ — burger less the bun. Good portion of salad which didn’t make me regret not ordering the bun.
Sweet potato friends could be thicker, but you can never go wrong with those anyway.
Simple atmosphere, can be either a date place, friends catch up or a business thing.
Service is friendly and attentive.

I can’t understand why this place is always crowded. Yes, probably it’s just because it’s shoreditch, and even if you open a vending machine it’ll be crowded each night, but damn, that burger is nothing special thinking that there is bukowsky and a lot of other better places just a throw from there!
Anyway, the place seems really strange: I mean, it’s supposed to be classy and chic, and then it has some strange decors, like the writings on the mirrors, strange ornaments on the walls (angel’s wings? really?!?)
But it’s ok, it’s shoreditch, whatever. Let’s go to the important one, the food:
let’s start with something easy, appetizers: last time I went here (Yes, I gave this place 3 chances for removing from the 1 star pit) we opted for nachos and chicken wings: nachos were a bit too easy, just nachos with some slices of cheese and sauce on top (I mean I know that this is how nachos are prepared, but would it be possible to have something just a little bit more elaborated?! Not that much, just to make it reasonable to pay 5 quids for some nachos!), while chicken wings were good and hot!
Now, for the (usually good) part: the burger! Now, this is a burger I had several issues with:
— too cooked: medium rare is medium rare, if the meat is brown it’s not only medium-​rare but it’s neither medium.
— every single dish is just too dry, there is no sauce in it, nothing that will remove the dryness from cooked burger and buns (especially with the soft ones)
— carrots? Why do I have to receive carrots in my burger??? Yeah I mean check it I’m not joking, inside every burger there are carrots and onion. I mean are you crazy??? What the hell?! You end up having completely disjointed flavors with half of the burgers present in the menu.
And these are just the burger problems. French fries are over cooked (same thing for the sweet potatoes), onion rings?!? Woah I saw a review actually suggesting those over cooked, over fried, oily greasy pieces, I mean do people still have any taste nowadays!?! Wow, simply wow.
Ah really funny last part: SUGGESTED FOR A DATE. Yes, Would you really have a date in damn burger place!!! WHAT!!! So you are planning your wedding at Fish&Chips or a hot dog stand?! Please… When going out to a date, everything is important, and it’s better you don’t end up with your hands smelling of burger and meat pieces in your teeth.
Geez, I think people coming here were just crazy, sorry guys but you are.

I like the Mexican (beef) burger. Patty cooked in some spices, topped with some jalepenos (thankfully seeds taken out), and a side of some really delicious salsa, sour cream and guacamole.
On days when I’m feeling restrained I swap the bun out for a side salad. Props to Hache on this front; the «salad» is not just an afterthought… really lovely chunks of cucumber, freshly blanched green beans and a light vinaigrette. Not just a few limp leaves that make you regretting your lack of bun. As a salad plate I feel full but not gross after having it. And it’s a reasonable 9.25 for ALL THE GEAR.
Sidebar: buns? There’s a choice! Ciabatta or brioche (latter for me, please!).
Lots of options for non-​red meat eaters (chicken burgers!) and veggies alike.
Unilocal note: hey-O…O-rings are WHAT IS UP.

I came across Haché on Unilocal when looking for somewhere to eat in Hoxton to meet up with my boyfriend and a friend. I saw some pretty great reviews, saw that they won TimeOuts Best Burger in London award at some point and read the story of their business on their website, which I really liked.
We booked a table in advance so we didn’t risk losing out. We arrived 15 mins early but they seated us straight away. I love the décor — classy and sophisticated for what is essentially an American burger joint, and a great range of burgers on the menu. I found it hard to choose which one but ended up ordering the Rebluchon cheese as I’ve not eaten it before and i remembered reading a great review on Unilocal about it. It was an excellent burger. I had it with the brioche bun and looking at the ciabatta I think I made the right decision.
We ordered four sides for the three of us to share — sweet potato fries, wedges, onion rings and coleslaw. I can’t fault any of it. The onion rings were huge and I really liked the crispy batter of them.
We were pretty full after our burgers and sides but dessert was too tempting! We had a cheesecake to share, which was really light and creamy, and then my friend had a vanilla milkshake and my boyfriend and I shared a naughty milkshake with Oreo, Tia Mia and Baileys. It didn’t taste very alcoholic but it was great. Perhaps a little pricey at £6.95 but a nice treat.
I’d definitely return to try another burger!

The Rebluchon cheese that I got with my burger here was quite unlike any cheese I have had on a burger before. It kind of reminded me of a really nice camembert. The burger was so good I woke up the next day thinking about it.
Accompanied it with some tasty Onion rings and some ok sweet potatoe fries.
The ambiance is rather nice. A burger joint might not strike you as a place to take a date, but with the way it looks this place can cut it!

Both times I’ve been here the food has been superb. Tonight I ordered the St Patricks Burger which came on smokey coleslaw. It was brilliant.
The fries are great and my splurge on the Oreo milkshake proved to be an excellent decision as well.
Couldn’t recommend more especially if you are looking for a burger.

Where to go when you must plan a Date Night for a Monday that must be reasonably priced, moderately romantic and close to home? You got it! Hache was the big winner. The exposed brick interior with candles on the dark wooden tables and even a set of cream coloured angel wings on the back wall were inviting and romantic.
The burger selection is vast, and I settled on the Fajita Chicken Sandwich. The chicken was cooked nicely and I enjoyed the red pepper and grilled onions on it. I left off the cheddar cheese. It was nice, but I’d go for the Chicken Au Naturel or Falafel Sweetcorn next time. Chris chose the Steak Reblochon and woke up the next morning thinking about it. I’d say he liked it.
We ordered the beer battered onion rings and the sweet potato frites to share and both were exceptionally nice. The onion rings were the best I’ve had in England so far and the sweet potato frites were nicely cooked — crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Yum.
It was a good experience, and because it’s nearby, I know we’ll be back.
