    I really like the counter - its good burgers, with a novelty factor. It's kind of styled on an old school diner - we're not talking kitsch red and leather booths, but its just casual, with a bar where you can just order milkshakes and watch the tv - usually playing The Simpsons etc. When you are seated they give you a little menu on a clip board and a little pencil. Then you tick the boxes as appropriate - whether you'd like a beef, turkey, chicken or veggie burger, what sauce you'd like, what toppings you'd like and so on and so forth. This place is great for a date - as it's fun and gives you both something to chat about! They do great milkshakes and as a starter I'd definitely recommend the 50/50 - half onion rings and fries to share. They're yum! The burgers are big enough to do for a main course in themselves. They also do a yummy cookie for dessert - it's giant, they heat it and serve it with whipped cream!

    Bison burger with some sweet potato fries! As good as it looks!

    Fast and tasty food, for a reasonable price! The first time I came here, il admit I wasn't convinced! But the boyfriend seems to love it so I decided to give it another shot...very happy that I did!! I went for the build your own burger. I love how the menu for it works. Just tick off what you want and hand it to the waiter - simples! I got the Bison burger with cheddar cheese, onion, egg and BBQ sauce. Oh nelly it was good! For sides I went for some sweet potato fries which where fabulous! But wait! That's not all! The icing on the cake was the "adult shake" I got! Bourbon vanilla cream milkshake. Winning! It was heavenly! Ideal for sharing as it's slightly heavy! Great little spot!

    Gluten free diy burger

    This place is great ! First, it's open all day long so don't worry, even if it's 3pm you can get an awesome burger there. Second, the service is really nice, not sure if it's because the last restaurant I've noted was so bad about that, but I found the waitress here really smily and nice. She explained us the concept of the diy burgers and answered our questions very nicely. I've decided to do a burger with gluten free buns, organic meat, onions, spinach leaves, goat cheese, green beans, egg and bacon. I've chosen with this apricot sauce and mustard which both came on side, happily, since I didn't really like the apricot sauce which tasted everything but apricot to me, the mustard one was nice tho. The burger was seriously awesome, the goat cheese was great and the meat too, I really enjoyed it. I'm really sad I didn't discover that place before. I had normal fries with that, nothing special to say about that, it was just normal fries. My boyfriend took the one with cheddar and was pretty disappointed about it so I wouldn't recommend these. The cheese came all dry on top of the fries so not melted at all. He also ordered a peanut butter milkshake, this one was soooo good ! The food is worth the price. I'd go back there tomorrow if I could, to try a new great combo !

    Went to counter in dundrum over the Christmas period and it was a Q out the door. After a twenty minute wait we got a good seat in the corner. As a party of three we ordered an abnormal amount of food. I noticed a change in the menu which was nice to see, they were keeping up with the latest crazes like quinoa on a burger or a chemical free organic beef but I just went for the usual updated name of a bison beef burger. The change of name got me excited the the quality of meat might to have also been ungraded but it was the same as always. Probably frozen burger meat. The best thing about counter is obviously building your burger exactly how you want it and the toppings are delicious. The crispy onion strings are also delicious. However the wing sauce is my personal favourite. Negative things are the burger itself it's not the most flavoursome hence why you need so many sauces. The Parmesan chips got a bit too much. It was also quite a greasy experience for all of my party. It's a fine place to grab a quick burger in dun drum after a shopping spree. In terms of a quality burger stop, counter is not the one. Staff were polite and friendly.

    Great place for a greasy hangover burger.. The build your own process is very fun and clever. I like the counter a lot, I've been here a few times but it's defo not my fav burger in Dublin. Love THER crispy onion strings but my god get the napkins at the ready cause they are very greasy... Wud reccommend to any hungover person but not somewher i would choose for a meal otherwise...

    Although their burgers and sweet potato fries are incredible, for me I have to say it's the chicken wings.
