Food is great and yummy, but you not allowed to share your drink specials and the waiter was sub standard.
"Amazing service and even better food."

Good money for value - but you might enjoy the cocktails more than the food. The rolls are quite ok but can't advice on ordering the signature dish - Lobster. It was really solid - cause overcooked. A shame for a mere R 500,-. The...More

Amazing burgers and the atmosphere is very nice to dine in. We weren't expecting such a vibe from a 'burger' joint.

Description
Burger & Lobster was founded in 2016 with the idea of going back to basics of a restaurant culture where people were offered only a few items that would get people talking - a burger, a lobster roll and fresh lobster. The First B&L in South Africa started in Cape Town on Bree Street. B&L has a world renouned cocktail bar offering the best original cocktails in Cape Town made with all home-made ingredients. B & L is a trendy and vibey place that gets people coming back. The Burger is made with highest quality natural beef and the Lobster is sustainable live lobster. Each dish developed the best it can be, surrounded with good people and great energy.
