<\/a><\/figure>\nOn Friday we were on a bit of a pub crawl around Canning Circus, we had already navigated the Organ Grinder, The Falcon, and The Good Fellow George before finding ourselves here in The Sir John Borlase Warren.<\/a><\/p>\n Once I got meself comfortable with a nice pint of Everards Sunchaser I suddenly found myself a bit peckish so perused the menu to see what was on offer<\/p>\n It seems that they were doing a whole load of smash burger action something I could easily get down with so I took a punt on their cheapest and most basic offering the AMERICAN CLASSIC<\/strong>. <\/p>\n Detailed very simply on the menu as \u201cSmash Patty, American Cheese, Ketchup, Mustard, Pickles<\/em>\u201d for \u00a39.95 with fries. That sounded good enough for me so we ordered two of them<\/p>\n If was feeling more bold I would have opted for either THE ADMIRAL<\/strong> which is a \u2018Double Patty, Pepperoni, Smoked Cheese, Truffle Mayo, and Crispy Onion<\/em>\u2018 or the SMOKEY JOE<\/strong> listed as a \u2018Smash Patty, Smoked Bacon, Smoked Cheese, Chilli Jam, and Crispy Onion<\/em>\u2018 but since both were \u00a312.95 a full 3 quid more than the American Classic<\/strong> I wanted to check out how they served that before splashing too much cash <\/p>\n This turned out to be a fairly decent effort and quite a tasty little bite of food. If I am being at all critical I would say that it was perhaps more of a squashed burger than a smashed and could have benefited from a little more char on the grill top. \ud83e\uddd0<\/p>\n I was very happy that the cheese was properly melted into a proper comfort blanket coating the top of the meat patty. I always prefer that to a half melted slice \ud83e\udd73<\/p>\n Taste wise the classical mix of ketchup and mustard along with a bit of pickle was most welcome on my taste buds. I find that is always a winning combination and as always most welcome on my taste buds \ud83e\udd70<\/p>\n The bun was well toasted, sure perhaps it had caught in places, but just like my toast I do like it with a slight hint of burnt so I would not complain \ud83e\udd23<\/p>\n Would I have another one? Yes I think I would, It was a good pub burger and better than many, actually better than the last burger I ate here. I would happily try another one on another visit as it certainly hit the spot and was a decent pub snack alongside a pint \ud83c\udf7a<\/p>\n Next time I think I would be a lot more adventurous and check out one of the more extravagant options like the SMOKEY JOE<\/strong> or THE ADMIRAL<\/strong><\/p>\n The Sir John Borlase Warren<\/a>\u00a0is located at 1 Ilkeston Road in Nottingham and is pretty much easily found on the triangular island where the road splits into Derby Road and Alfreton Road<\/p>\n It is a great pub to include in a pub crawl around Canning Circus as you can fit 4 pubs in within a few minutes walk of each other. That is what we normally do \ud83d\ude0e<\/p>\n You can check them out on their\u00a0Facebook Page<\/a>\u00a0and on their\u00a0Instagram Profile<\/a><\/p>\nSMASH BURGER MENU<\/h5>\n
