Ten of the best burger joints in Hull & East Yorkshire to try on National Burger Day

When it comes to burgers, Hull is graced with some of the best in the country. Dope Burger springs to mind of course, but that’s not all we have to offer! From dedicated burger joints to restaurants with gems on their menus, we’ve got plenty of options for those days when nothing but a burger will hit the spot.

Here are some bangin’ burger joints in Hull, with a few more thrown in from wider East Yorkshire for good measure!

Dope Burger

18 Witham, Hull HU9 1BY | 556 Beverley Rd, Newland, Hull HU6 7LG | Trinity House Ln, Hull HU1 2JH

Dope Burger is a local favourite that’s been serving up American-style burgers for over a decade now. Originally established in 2011 by Oliver Johnson as a small kiosk opposite Paragon Station, everyone in Hull was asking if you’d tried the burgers from that little kiosk back then, and for good reason!

They bagged the BBC’s Britain’s Best Burger Takeaway award in 2022 too, but it’s the local reviews that truly sing their praises; you’d be hard-pressed to find a room in Hull without someone who loves Dope. There are a few outlets across Hull, with a massive selection of burgers to satisfy any craving!

The establishment is owned and run by three incredibly talented chefs who are dedicated to bringing their creative flair and restaurant-standard food to a local, friendly takeaway.

During our visit, we sampled several standout items, including these succulent steak burgers… the Jam Slam topped with bacon jam and breaded deep-fried Red Leicester and The Fat Cow topped with sweet and smokey pulled beef brisket!

They’ve got a variety of other absolutely fantastic food available too, including desserts, as well as milkshakes! It’s a spot we highly recommend next time you’re craving a burger.

It’s easy for some to forget about Yankee Land – if you stroll down Prospect Street often, as so many do, it can blend into the background a bit. And yet it’s one of Hull’s longest-standing American eateries, with their famous Yankee fries complementing the rest of the American menu.

Serving stack-em-high flame-grilled burgers, popcorn chicken, sweet potato fries and more, it’s open daily for lunch and located centrally in Hull city centre, making it perfect for a quick bite to eat with the kids!
