Jim Block Dammtor - Hamburg

Prior to my trip out to Hamburg, I thought hamburgers might have originated here! Anyways, though that isn't the case, I am so glad I found Jim Block! I had it bookmarked for a cheap, quick, and pleasing eat. I came here for a very late lunch/early dinner with my boss on a Sunday afternoon. I got the Mushroom and cheeseburger meal, so it came with fries and a drink. I decided on bottled water as opposed to soda. The plate was huge and was about €9. Our orders were served fast. The burger was messy and covered with a lot of mushrooms and the cheese was perfectly melted. They have their own signature sauce put on it and it also came with shredded lettuce. The fries were crisp and I saw many others opted to get a baked potato or side of bread instead. They also have the option for bunless in which you just get served the meat with toppings. Her falafel burger was shaped into a patty and she was very pleased with it. My meal was so big that I couldn't finish it all. There's mostly communal seating at this very busy location. And it's kinda cool to see how fast food is different in Europe, as they use silverware! I would recommend Jim Block for a quick and pleasing meal. They don't have salads but there's something for a beef eater, chicken eater and the veggie eater.

I was near the Alster Lake on a nice Sunday afternoon and wasn't sure where to go for lunch. I found Jim Block to be right near the lake, and there was a huge crowd. I went in, and ordered my burger meal combo which comes with a drink and fries. I must say, the burger here was simply amazing. I also took their original Mayo, which was so thick and creamy. The fries, the mayo and the burger was the perfect combo for a nice Sunday afternoon meal. They have seating both indoors and outdoors. I'd suggest sitting outdoors. The ambience is nice for a good meal. The staff are also courteous.

Ham-Burgers in Hamburg Germany yes please! Especially if it here. This place has burger flavors to try more than once. Lunch time was a bit busy but rightfully so for good food.i chose the baked potato instead of fries and I'm glad I did. If anything I would just go for that and a burger on the side. While I'm not a salad eater they do make them fresh right in front of you and the portion is large. And as delicious as they looked I would even eat one. Who doesn't want burgers and beer. Well you can get both here, enjoy a table outside and people watch as they pass in a hurry to get to their next destination. My husband upgraded his champion burger and it was far better than my own. They also offer no bun options and a blue cheese burger that I heard was really good too. What seems to be a chain restaurant or fast food was not like anything I'm use to in the US. I would definitely go back. The cashiers were friendly and informative and offered a smile with every meal purchase. But don't expect fast food service if they are busy everything is made to order. But for me that is worth the wait.

I think my title says it all. The hamburger was pretty juicy. Fries were average, too. But it was what I needed that day, a quick lunch.

Owned by the same company as the popular Block House steak restaurants Jim Block offers burgers, fries and all of the typical fast food options, but with a little more panache. Prone to busy times it tends to get a little messy.
