Bill's Bar & Burger

Bill's Bar & Burger is a restaurant in NYC with a couple of locations. We visited the location in the meatpacking district. They offer a variety of bar food, with their main specialty being hamburgers. The food was all pretty good, although nothing special.

Dress

Very casual

Cost

Bill's Bar & Burger felt a little pricey for such simple food (in comparison to other hamburger places). Burgers were between $8-$11.

Reservations

We didn't have reservations at 7:30pm on a Friday, and there were a number of tables still available.

Items Ordered

Campfire

Campfire Milkshake

The campfire milkshake was quite good. It looked like all milkshake's at Bill's were huge. You get one full glass, and then the rest of the milkshake (that doesn't fit) in the metal mixing container. You can make another full milkshake out of the leftovers.

The campfire milkshake itself was a plain vanilla milkshake mixed in with chunks of melted marshmallow and topped with a delicious roasted marshmallow topping. It was sweet, gooey, and went well with the milkshake (although we found we had to eat it with a fork).

The Classic

The Classic

The classic burger, cooked to order, was a pretty typical burger. The meat had a little bit of seasoning, but it was still a pretty average burger.

Bill's Burger & Disco Fries

Bill's Burger & Disco Fries

Bill's Burger is the classic burger covered in american cheese and a special sauce that tasted like mayonnaise. It was very messy to eat. I would probably order the classic next time - the special sauce wasn't tasty enough to deal with all the extra mess.

The disco fries had american cheese on them, and a little bit of gravy. The fries themselves were thick-cut and nicely battered. I was hoping the cheese/gravy would have been more similar to canadian Poutine, but the disco fries were still pretty good. They felt very heavy.
