Dishes & ingredients
At Black Cab Burger, we take pride in offering a customizable burger experience for our customers. With four different sizes to choose from - regular burger, large burger, regular double burger and large double burger - there's a size to satisfy every appetite.
But the customization doesn't stop there. We offer three different types of meat to choose from: classic burger beef patty, juicy chicken, or flavorful salmon. And with six toppings available - crisp iceberg lettuce, ripe tomato, onion, tangy pickled cucumber, spicy jalapeno peppers, and savoury fried onions - the possibilities are endless.
To top it all off, we have seven delicious sauces to choose from to add that extra flavour kick to your burger. From classic ketchup and mustard to creamy mayo and zesty BBQ sauce, there's a sauce for every taste preference. For melted cheese lovers, you can choose from English cheddar, swiss (Emmentaler cheese), or blue cheese to add a rich and creamy element to your burger.
If you're a fan of savoury and crispy bacon, why not add some grilled bacon to your burger for an extra layer of smoky flavour? Or if you're feeling adventurous, a fried egg can provide a deliciously gooey addition that takes your burger combinations to new heights. For those who enjoy a touch of sweetness, grilled pineapple can add a tropical twist to your burger, providing a burst of juicy flavour that complements the savoury elements perfectly.
By using locally sourced meat from a trusted butcher for 13 years, Black Cab Burger ensures that every patty is fresh, flavorful, and of the highest quality. This commitment to excellence shines through in every bite, making Black Cab Burger a favourite among locals and visitors alike.
Black Cab Burger is known for its delicious and unique chicken burgers that are marinated in two homemade marinades - BBQ and lemon & herb. These mouthwatering marinades add a burst of flavour to the juicy pieces of chicken, making them a popular choice among burger lovers.
By offering such a wide variety of sauces, Black Cab Burger ensures that every customer can customise their burger to suit their taste preferences. Whether you prefer classic condiments or bold and spicy flavours, there's a sauce option for everyone at Black Cab Burger.
At Black Cab Burger, we don't just specialise in premium burgers - we also offer an array of delicious hot dogs for those craving a classic comfort food experience. Our hot dogs come in two popular styles: frankfurts and Cumberland-style sausages.
Just like with our burgers, we offer a wide selection of homemade sauces and delicious toppings for our hot dogs. Choose from ketchup, mustard, mayo, BBQ sauce, garlic mayo, chilli sauce, sweet chilli sauce, hot sauce, onions, pickles, jalapenos, and more to create your perfect hot dog creation.
At Black Cab Burger, we believe that salads should be just as delicious and satisfying as our excellent burgers. That's why we offer a variety of fresh and flavorful salad options that are sure to please even the most discerning palates. Whether you're in the mood for a light and refreshing Black Cab salad, a bold and flavorful Blue Cheese salad, or a hearty and protein-packed Salmon salad, we have the perfect option for you.
Black Cab Burger takes pride in serving British-style homemade chips that have been locally sourced for 13 years. Our fries are made from fresh potatoes that are cut daily and cooked to perfection in cholesterol-free peanut oil.
