And actually the burgers and fries do very much taste similar to that of McDonald's, in my opinion anyway. Even the advertising is in line with that of McDonald's as they advertise huge massive burgers, but in reality you get a thin, perfectly cylindrical and over-seasoned hamburger patty, flat mass-produced buns and misc. toppings...but at least it tastes pretty good. Again...think McDonald's but at twice or three times the price wherever you come from. If you are a visitor of Hamburg, please do not believe those that say it's the best in our city! There are many more better offerings in Hamburg. Overall, 2.5 stars. Will you ever see me there again? Not if it's my choice. I won't deny that I thought it was pretty good, but I was disappointed overall. If anything really, it has seriously deterred me from wanting to try Block House.

Jim Block used to be my favourite burger in Hamburg, but I've gone off the place recently. They…read moredisplay very little care putting their burgers together. The only things that sets them apart from other fast food burger joints is a) the higher price b) you get a plate c) the ingredients are of a slightly higher quality If you want a burger, are sick of the American chains, and don't want to spend the time to go to a real restaurant, then this is Jim Block's niche. You get a decent burger, no more

JB's and Block House are tied together business wise or were. Someone told me about that but I forget the full story. The burgers are a big sized and packed full of tasty stuff ranging from fried mushrooms, bacon, cheese. All with a good dash of salad. Plus frieds or garlic bread on the side. Insider tip: Try the garlic bread!! It's the same as Block House. So incredibly tasty! The restaurant is nicely sized with kids area. It's also well kept and maintained. Staff service is also pretty good. But expect a queue around 6pm when everyone decides they can't be bothered to cook.

Pretty packed during lunch time...but i always got a table and none-hectic-friendly service. Burgers are the bomb...imagine the strangest combination and you'll probably find it on the menu (Banana-peanutbutter-beef-burger etc...) Even though the fries are not the best in town...the milkshakes make it worthwhile. And because the prices are more than fair, overall 5 stars!

Just ordered two Burgers and fries. A XL-Burger, a Toni…read moreCurtis and twister fries. It took them round about 15 minutes to deliver it, wow! I think I never had such a fast delivery, ever! The food was hot and even the fries were crispy. The burger was tasty and had fresh ingredients. The last time I ordered there, I had a burger that is not going to be my favorite, but thats because I like my burgers simple and just with cheese and vegetables. I would say it's a solid burger, but you just can't compare it to really good burger like at In-n-out. The diner itself is held in a 60's style, red furniture and chrome. It's a nice place to get a bite to eat.

Prior to my trip out to Hamburg, I thought hamburgers might have originated here! Anyways, though…read morethat 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…read morefound 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.
