What the Double American Cheese Burger is like
This is a rich, savoury burger built around two thick, juicy beef patties and a double helping of melting American-style cheese. The beef supplies the substantial bite, while the cheese gives the stack a softer, richer texture. Crisp gherkins provide contrast, with tangy mustard cutting across the richness and ketchup adding another layer of flavour.
A soft toasted bun holds the tall stack together, so the emphasis is on a hearty burger rather than a restrained serving. Chips accompany it, and the dish is described as served fresh and hot. Choose it for classic diner flavours and a serious appetite, particularly if beef and cheese are your main reasons for ordering a burger.
Is the Double American Cheese Burger good value?
The double beef and cheese serving plus included chips makes Double American Cheese Burger worth considering at a typical £8.99 if you have a hearty appetite. For price context, it is the ninth lowest priced of the 12 items we track in this section. Compare the American Cheese Burger and BBQ Bacon Burger in the same burgers section before deciding which combination you want.
Many mains can be ordered with an eligible soft or alcoholic drink, but check whether this burger qualifies at your pub. A meal option is worth comparing with separate food and drink orders, since prices vary by location.

When to order the Double American Cheese Burger
Big appetites
This suits diners who want two beef patties, a double helping of cheese and chips in one meal, rather than a burger with a modest filling.
Classic diner flavours
Choose this if your preferred burger centres on beef, American-style cheese, gherkins, ketchup and mustard, rather than looking for a different combination of toppings.

Tips for ordering the Double American Cheese Burger
Check the price at your chosen pub before ordering, as the listed £8.99 is typical and prices vary by location.

If you want the gherkins, ketchup or mustard left out, ask the pub before ordering rather than assuming a customised version is available.
