The opening of B.East inwards 2012 smacked of the worst form of hospitality cynicism - Baba, a fancyish Middle Eastern house that The Burger Adventure, the best bloody burgers, we The Burger Adventure, the best bloody burgers, quite The Burger Adventure, the best bloody burgers, enjoyed, was unopen downward yesteryear the owners together with then they could boundary on the Americana/burger bandwagon alongside the B.East. We checked it out early on together with were pretty unimpressed - the whole do felt a fighting one-half hearted together with trendy. Still, it seemed to hold out a success, alongside crowds of people in that place whenever nosotros wandered past. We fifty-fifty revisited at ane betoken to motility the tempeh burger they were offering upwards for vegans, but it was a pretty tedious rendition together with we'd to a greater extent than or less shape it aside equally somewhere we'd never larn roughly to blogging.
At to the lowest degree until Jess McGuire tweeted nigh how amazing the harissa mock chicken burger was. So nosotros had to brand ane to a greater extent than trip. We managed to coincide our provide alongside Jess' fantabulous popular civilisation trivia (at which nosotros failed pretty dismally), which meant that the whole house was jammed alongside people together with real noisy - it's equally much pub equally restaurant, together with actually non somewhere you'd become for a serenity relaxed meal.
The menu's changed a lot since nosotros visited - there's a dyad of veggie burgers, a slider, a dyad of snacks together with a make of fries. I actually simply wanted to focus on The Morrissey (mock fried chicken, sweetness corn relish, lettuce, tomato, jalapeno salsa on rye - vegan, $13), but Cindy idea nosotros should broaden our pick a bit.
We started alongside a roast pumpkin together with blueish cheese slider (pumpkin together with blueish cheese fritter, snowpea tendrils together with horseradish aoili, $7).
This wasn't real memorable - in that place wasn't the blueish cheese richness I was hoping for or whatever existent kicking from the horseradish inwards the aoili. The fritter was obese together with fried, together with then it wasn't a consummate disappointment, but I wouldn't lodge it again.
Instead, I would lodge The Morrissey.
This was the bomb - the patty was huge together with had nifty crispy batter roughly obese mock chicken. The bun was fresh together with manageable plenty (although the whole affair was besides large to actually consume neatly) together with the sauce was actually hot together with spicy. Four of our trivia squad tried this together with everyone was real enthusiastic - definitely ane to depository fiscal establishment jibe out, together with non ludicrously priced at $13.
The $13 doesn't larn yous whatever fries though - yous tin pay $3.50 to larn a side alongside your burger or yous tin create what nosotros did together with larn a total serve ($6.50 summation $1 if yous desire a dipping sauce instead of simply the tabular array ketchup/mustard). The fries were fantabulous - super crunchy together with salty.
Despite our initial misgivings, the B.East hits the grade pretty solidly for a boozy Tuesday trivia. There are inexpensive Holgate pints, fantastic fries together with ane of the best mock chicken burgers around. We simply necessitate to report our John Hughes movies together with Beyoncé-related trivia earlier nosotros return.

Accessibility: There's a broad entry alongside a ramp into a pretty crowded interior (at to the lowest degree on trivia nights). It's dimly lit together with noisy together with yous lodge at a high bar. The toilets are on the same grade through a narrowish corridor yesteryear the kitchen together with are gendered together with quite large (although I can't think seeing a specifically accessible cubicle).
