SoBe Burger - High Road, Loughton

SoBe Burger has been shaking up Loughton's High Road with proper smash burgers that locals can't get enough of. This spot knows exactly what it's doing — thin, crispy-edged patties with that perfect lacy crust, all stacked between soft, squishy buns. They've kept things simple but seriously good, and word has clearly spread. The kitchen holds a solid Food Hygiene Rating, which is always reassuring when you're ordering in.

Their classic double cheeseburger is a masterclass in balance — two patties with melty American cheese, tangy pickles, onions and their secret sauce. But don't sleep on the SoBe Special, which piles on bacon and their house-made smoky mayo for extra punch. Every burger comes wrapped and ready, the fries stay crisp in transit. If you're in IG10 and craving that proper burger joint energy without leaving the sofa, this is your move.
