- A homegrown British venture, Chosen Bun launched their gourmet burger delivery service in 2013, an apparent world first. From their Fulham Broadway outpost, a fleet of branded mopeds serve a 2 mile catchment with inventive, gastronomic burgers, sides and milkshakes, ordered online. High-end takeaway for the lazy digital foodie!
- The tongue-in-cheek personalisation of the menu conveys a real authenticity and social provenance, rather than a corporate lab with teams of food scientists. For example, The Shoveman bacon cheeseburger is a portmanteau homage to the founders Andy Shovel and Pete Sharman, with similar stories littered across the menu.
- The end result is a range of thoughtfully crafted products, brimming with attention to detail, complete with customisation options (menu). You can get extras of anything on anything (individually priced), including additional patties - a gamut of choice!
- My burger, sides and milkshake were delivered to my door 25mins from ordering, arriving perfectly warm and cold as required. With fresh, tastefully chosen ingredients (no pun intended) the bacon cheeseburger was appetising, but ate like a sum of it's parts rather than a holistic sensory overload:
 |
| Beef patty, caramelised red onion and garlic chutney, lettuce, cheddar cheese, shoveman sauce, smoked streaky bacon and nicks pickles. |
- Thankfully however, the fried mac and cheese bites are DIVINE!! With crunchy panko breadcrumb coating, rich and creamy sauce, fresh herbs and a light chew of pasta, Chosen Bun have *nailed* this:
 |
| Quite possibly the best side dish in London, I defy you NOT to love these! |
- The triple-cooked chips paled in comparison given the exceptional competition, but objectively are highly edible - basically a roast potato in chip form:
- Good milkshakes too! All in all, a solid burger startup worthy of your money in a crowded market should you find yourself in West London!
