Previously located in Nakameguro, this hamburger shop was started by two high school friends, with the name being conceived as part of an ongoing joke. Extremely close to Shibuya station, and not far off of the path to Aoyama Dori, this place is not too difficult to find.
The interior is not what you'd expect, as it more resembles a small neighbourhood bar, with no tables (with the exception of the outdoor picnic table) and bar-only seating. This suits the location well though, as you can easily chat with the owners if they're not busy in the case you're feeling talkative or watch skate videos which are constantly playing on the small television set behind the counter.
Many of the burgers here are named after famous figures, such as the original Whoopi Goldburger, Kevin Bacon and Charlotte Gainsburger and can come with a side of fries or mashed potatoes. The owners are always trying new combinations, so don't be surprised to see new items on the menu each time you visit. Portions are generous, with the coarsely ground beef hamburger patties being quite large, so you can be sure that you won't be going home hungry.
