    The service was okay, they were nice people but could have focused on cooking the food with a huge crowd of people. I had read good reviews on this burger and saw it was "one of the best burgers in london" so was disappointed how over hyped it is. (I tried the candied bacon burger) Much better burgers out there like Meat Liquor for similar pricing. Glad I tried it to know I'm not missing out on anything

    I have eaten a lot of burgers across London, but Motherflipper is my favourite. From the sausage muffins which I say are the tastiest breakfast muffins I have ever eaten. Their burgers are just delicious, just juicy and the dirty Barbie is a real man size, their prices are very fair for the high quality of the burgers. This is well worth once a week visit, I have been a regular for years and worth the trek down to Brockley market. Enjoy guys, I sure do.

    Fantastic food! Burgers were tasty and juicy, and I don't know how they get the fries so good and not oily! Also the fried chicken is my favourite ever.I'm equally happy AND worried to live nearby 😅

    Perfect. We haven't had a chance to go to Brockley Market in a while so very glad they've opened a place up. What can I say, burgers are amazing. We sat in and had ours and then grabbed a few to go for our family. Delicious food and amazing music choices, can't wait to come back.

    This mother flippin burger is insanely good. I have had it with those mother flippin burger joints popping out everywhere, burger this and burger that. But this stand, this mother flippin stand opened during a family-friendly local market is just mad good.

    I had a lovely take away, (Chips & Veggie Flipper) I was very pleased to know, that the chips are cooked separately! Being a fussy vegetarian, I was very grateful. I will definitely be returning again. Thank you!

    I was happy to see a Mother Flipper pop up at Kew Gardens. It's one of the burger joints I've been waiting to tick off of my list. I was really impressed by the classic cheese burger. The patty and bun were solid - not too greasy and cooked really well. It was just the right size too- I'm definitely not a fan of these gargantuan burgers out there. For me though, the toppings were some of the best I've had. They add great flavour and texture to the burger and bring the whole thing together. Again, overfilled. Just the right amount for the size of the burger. A final note - the service time was very quick. Definitely a top 5 burger in London for me.

    Apart from their blink-and-you'll-miss-it weekly appearances at Brockley Market, Mother Flipper can also be booked to cater private events. We were lucky enough that during Stylist's 24-Hour Challenge, they got the guys from Mother Flipper down to dish out free slider portions of their burgers for fans of the magazine who came down at 1 in the morning. Four of their burgers were available - The Mother Flipper Cheese Burger, The Double Candy Bacon Flipper, The Dirty Barbie and The Bacon Swiss - and I got to try one of each. The smell of sizzling patties does amazing things for whetting your appetite, and it was absolute torture waiting while they cooked the burgers for the Stylist team first before getting on to the orders of everyone else in line. By the time they called out my order number for the first burger I was starving. Thankfully, the three-man team running the operation worked in sync, vastly reducing the waiting time. The meaty and flavourful 100% chuck steak patties are cooked to medium perfection, which means it can get a bit messy when the juices invariably start dribbling down your chin. All the burgers came with delightfully crisp vegetable with nary a wilted lettuce in sight, though my favourite topping might well be the Candy Bacon, which features in a number of their burgers. It's bacon fried in maple syrup - there is absolutely nothing not to love about it. The only minor quibble I had was with the slightly cold buns - they'd seen a round of toasting on the grill, but in the process of assembly had been chilled to nearly ambient temperature. Still, with the patties piping hot and oozing, the overall burgers still worked incredibly well. #BurgerBinge

    Best burgers in london, great way to kick off the weekend.

    Mother Flipper. This burger joint came as a recommendation from the experts in London. A few hour affair that pops up at the Brockley Market on Saturdays. The preparation at Mother Flipper is done right in front of you. I waited in line and my mouth watered at the expertly constructed burgers. A three-man crew consisting of a full-time assembler, full time flipper, and a bun toaster cranks out these tasty delights. I got the Candied Bacon Burger which consists of a tender sesame bun, candied bacon, juicy beef, shredded lettuce, pickles, ketchup, mustard, and thinly sliced red onion. Each of the ingredients on the Candied Bacon Burger are well thought out for flavor. A sweet and crispy bacon, tender and juicy beef, vinegary and tangy ketchup + mustard + pickles, melted cheese, and a toasted but soft bun to soak it all up. My burger disappeared before I had a chance to write too many notes about it. That is a good sign when it comes time to dish out a score. The Candied bacon Burger is something to be admired for its well distributed and thought out flavors. A smart decision not to use a tomato really helps the texture, and makes this burger very focused on key flavors. Every ingredient contributes, but none overwhelm. Compared to the other top burgers my mouth felt a little dry, but this might be because I did not have a drink at my disposal while enjoying it. This is one of the best burgers in London and there is no doubt about it. A shame that it is not easier to get these burgers more than one day a week.

    Their breakfast burger is incredible. Would definitely get again!

    I absolutely love love love these burgers - I can 100000% say, these are the best burgers I've ever had ever since I first tried them at a work event. The Dirty Barbie burger is definitely my favourite, and I go every year to Model Market to get one of these bad boys! Yes they are pricey, but totally worth it!

    Had a cheeseburger at Kew Gardens last night. I am coeliac and I was SO impressed by the precautions they took to avoid cross contamination. And to top it all the burger was delicious, with crisp salad, lovely bun and very crisp fries. well done guys!

    The best burgers I’ve had in a long time! You can’t go wrong eating at Brockley Market but this is my favourite

  • 5/5 Elias M. 3 years ago on Google
    The menu and service were above our expectations. I surely liked the atmosphere of this spot. Great restaurant to take the family out for lunch.

  • 5/5 Fakefrety D. 3 years ago on Google
    Went to the pop up a couple of weeks ago and the burgers were great! Staff were friendly and so helpful seeing as I turned up asking for a table for 10 (couldn't reserve beforehand). Service was really quick and friendly, burgers were delicious and the scotch bonnet chilli sauce was truly heavenly!

  • 5/5 Max O. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely incredible. The dirty Barbie is the best burger I've ever had Quality meat, candied bacon is delicious, and the taste combination blows me away every time. Cannot recommend highly enough.

    Quality burger! I made the journey down to the Brockley St Market on a wet Saturday arvo and was glad I did! I went for one thing - Mother Flipper. I ordered the Candy Bacon Flipper and after a 5-10 minute wait I was tucking into a delicious burger. The maple soaked bacon added a nice sweetness, the patty was sizeable and the bun spot on. The salad was ok, but the tomato wasn’t needed on this burger. Fries were £2.50 and were a decent serving. Will definitely be back.
