Gourmet Burger Club’s concept is simple; fresh wholesome ingredients coming together for maximum flavour. Easily among the best Burgers, Entrees, Salads and Club Sandwiches you will taste in our home county. We can wholeheartedly say we were blown away with our recent taste explosion at GBC!
Having lovingly visited their first Banstead restaurant on several occasions, we were excited to try their new Cobham restaurant. It did not disappoint. Beautifully decorated in their signature black and gold with leather booth style seating it was chic, decadent and inviting.
TO START
The menu was wide and varied with a great selection of Starters including the amazing ‘Dynamite Prawns’, ‘Grilled Wings’ and ‘Halloumi Skewers.’ On the advice of restaurant owner Sana we went for their famous ‘Handcrafted Onion Rings’ which were delicious, so crisp and freshly made that day. We also tried the popular ‘Club Wings’ free-range chicken wings tossed in hot and tangy sauce – absolutely divine – really meaty and the perfect ‘kick’ was provided with the spicy sauce accompaniment.
MASTERFUL MAINS
Despite being billed as a burger restaurant there is a lot more than just your standard beef burgers on the menu, including 5 different types of Chicken Burgers, 3 Veggie Burgers, 7 Smashed Beef Burgers plus 3 Salads and Club Sandwich options as well as 6 different types of fries – Classic, Chilli, Curly, Cheesy, Chilli Cheese or Sweet Potato. Wow, we were in chip heaven!
With such a selection it was a tough choice. As we were in Cobham we thought it only apt to select the ‘Cobham Burger’ which was beautifully presented with a 100% grass-fed British beef burger, melted cheese, onion ring, handcrafted guacamole, picked beetroot, rocket and their signature club sauce. Stacked to perfection the flavours from the guacamole and beetroot really offset the burger, cheese and onion. Having never had this combination, our taster (who also happens to be a top chef!) said they would definitely have this again!
Next up we went for the ‘Chicken Club Sandwich’ which contained shredded mayo chicken, a fried egg, turkey bacon, lettuce, tomato, signature club sauce served on toasted bread with classic fries. It was superb; succulent chicken, creamy mayo and crispy bacon all impeccably served with the yummiest crunchiest fries.
On a previous outing we had tested ‘The Spicy Club Gourmet’ with melted cheese, onion, grilled peppers, lettuce, jalapenos and spicy club sauce, which is another top recommendation, especially if you like to spice up your burger. And the ‘Mushroom Melt Chicken Burger’ is another top dish, with grilled chicken thigh, cheese, caramelised onions and oozing with creamy mushroom sauce!
There is also a very cute (and cost effective!) kids’ menu that is very popular with the little ones.
DESSERTS & DRINKS
There is an impressive drinks and desserts menu at Gourmet Burger Club too. They have 12 flavours of premium Italian gelato ice-cream and milkshakes, including mint choc chip, bubblegum and toffee & butterscotch. Or induge in Oreo Cookie, Cadbury Flake, Maltesers or Twix ice-cream milkshakes. Yum. And new at Banstead is the Nutella crepe, drizzled in chocolate with fresh strawberries and chocolate ice-cream. Dessert heaven.
BEHIND GBC
Gourmet Burger Club’s signature recipes are the brainchild of owner and burger connoisseur Sana, who has tried, tested and lovingly handcrafted every item on their menu to perfection. Each burger is lovingly handcrafted using 100% grass-fed British beef and the flavours are taken to new heights by the addition of complimentary tastes and textures.
SANA – HOW GBC STARTED
“In 2020, when people had run out of spirit and were bound to their homes, I was sitting by my window thinking how I could help in restoring the spirit and bringing a smile on people’s faces during these dark times. So, I went into my kitchen and started to experiment with flavours and ingredients.
This is where Gourmet Burger Club was born. I always had a passion to cook flavoursome food and treat my guests and this same tradition has been taken forward at Gourmet Burger Club: we treat customers like our own guests.
Our restaurant is a passionate tribute to the art of burger making. Where every ingredient is fresh and full of flavours to give you, an extra ordinary dine-in experience. Join me and my team at Gourmet Burger Club and feel the taste of freshness in every delicious bite. Discover your own joy with our Fresh and Handcrafted burgers. “
IN SUMMARY
We could not recommend Gourmet Burger Club highly enough. From their first restaurant opening in Banstead in 2020 to Cobham in 2023 and more recently Covent Garden in 2024 – you can see how well the Gourmet Burger Club love is spreading through Surrey and beyond. Be sure to pay them a visit. And if you are ever in Cobham supervisor Javed and team member Gazally will make you feel truly welcome. As they did us! We are definitely coming back again soon. 5 Star all the way.
