Uncle Sams Carden Avenue, Brighton in Brighton and Hove

Great food, great service, lovely staff and a lovely owner, always make you feel welcome.

Good food, having to pay 55p for a teaspoon of mayo left a bitter taste in my mouth

Absolutely awful service and company ordered a bacon cheeseburger got no bacon or cheese called them up they ended the call and then ignored further phone calls god know what has happened to this place!coke was flat as anything if could give 0 starts I would

Ubereats messed up with their drivers twice so Uncle Sams sent one of their own staff to me. Amazing service, and my food was incredible as usual!

A Brighton institution, and legendary burger bar that I have been coming to since I arrived in Brighton in 2021, been a regular at the Carden branch for 15 years. Food is solid, reliably well made, very tasty, adequately portioned and great value for money. Burgers are very meaty, decent chips, and nice milkshakes. If it wasn’t great, we wouldn’t keep coming back. The recent makeover looks really good too.

We placed an order for delivery. Uncle Sam's only deliver via Uber. We ordered £37 of food and had only a milkshake and two fries delivered. Driver claimed to have no other deliveries and told me to call Uncle Sam's. When I called them they said "nothing we can do. Call Uber" Bad service from both companies!!

So much better than all the other Uncle Sam's. Food nice and hot, even by the time we got home, Quick service, friendly staff. Nice one!

New owners , didn’t make order correctly…. Rubbish attitude by staff …. NEVER WILL I SET FOOT IN THIS SHOP AGAIN

Staff was lovely made my order that bit better by making it how I liked it

This one is quite simply the best of all the Uncle Sams restaurants. They all make a delicious burger but, over the years, I've found this one to be the most consistent. You have to try a double chilli burger with extra chilli - it's an awesome experience!

The food was very nice but it’s sad that they don’t do banana milkshakes anymore. The service did take a long time because I think they’re were beginners but sort from that there food was brilliant. Very aesthetic atmosphere.

What happened to this place! First time ordering from there today in awhile, the food arrived cold, half of it was missing.. The onion rings arrived burned. Hire better staff and management.

Great new decor and the burgers were good

Just picked up my order. Straight in the bin. Terrible

Food good but if you want a drink, buy a can and give the on tap cola a miss!

Yummy 😋. Staff are very professional and accommodating.

Lovely Food. Great Service from friendly staff.

Fast and efficient service in-store or delivery. All the staff are friendly and helpful. The burgers are great, particularly the chilli one! The kitchen is clean and the restaurant's had an amazing re-fit. Highly recommend

Ordered my food at 7.30pm on Deliveroo and it is now 8.57pm and it has arrived stone cold 🤮 last order from me

the people who work here are very rude and unprofessional, i’ve never been spoken to it such a rude manner when ordering.

Very poor food, always cold, always forgetting items when ordering, manager runs the place very poorly. DO NOT RECOMMEND

absolutely terrible avoid at all costs, staff are some of the rudest i’ve ever met, food is cold and not the best go elsewhere!

Great customer service! Especially by cashier named Jess. Food was so fast. Would def come again!

Great service, well run and popular. Try their milkshakes

Jazz made the best burger I’d ever had, 10/10

Great fresh food and fabulous service! Always the best 👍🏻

'Twas Halloween, they were dressed up great, and the biscoff milshake was to die for!

Tonight 24th sept 2023 .. that’s the A TEAM hot after driving home .. well cooked . lush .. it was all girls .. they were on it .

Went there to bring back memories of when I use to eat in there when I was a teenager. Not as good now as then.

I've previously left you good reviews on Uber but tonight has been terrible, regardless whether it's your fault or Uber.. you are not answering the phone and we're missing 3 meals, this is unacceptable, I'd like to give you the chance to make it right but since I can't contact you I'm leaving a bad review and won't be ordering again. What a shame!

Use to live on uncle sam's when I lived in Brighton, so after moving away many years ago, was great to try 2 again! Please open one in lewes!!!!

Always mess up the order. Either forget something or give the incorrect item. Run by chavs.

Staff were good natured, cheerful and professional. Food was spot on! Highly recommend this place. If your arriving by car you just have to dump it in a residential street somewhere nearby which isn't great but worth it for the food.

The blonde woman working this afternoon was so rude to her staff! Slamming things around, snapping at people for nothing. Get over yourself, you work in a burger bar. I get depressing your life must be, but don't take it out on other people.

They don't have communication skills

Can't go wrong with an uncle Sam's

Turned up 9.05pm closed.. States open till 10pm , May be they need to update opening times or staff just wanted to go home 🤷

Funcionários mau educado, destratam várias pessoas dentro da lanchonete. Apesar da comida ser boa não pretendo voltar, as meninas são simpáticas mas os homens são muito sem educação.

Ordered a plain hamburger and chips, the plain hamburger was really nice and the chips were the best chips I’ve ever tasted in my life, in my opinion, this is the most underrated restaurant in the whole of Brighton, definitely recommend, the minus 1 star was because the staff could be a little more engaging, I would give it 4.5 stars if I could!

The beat burgers I recommend the blt or customising one of your own I had a thousand island with pineapple fantastic. Not the friendliest service they tend to pretend your not there when waiting for your order and I rang ahead to preorder my food and they answered the phone to tell me they don't take orders on the phone,! Why bother?

The best burgers in Brighton!! Staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, food was delicious at good prices too and quick. Would highly recommend!

Poor customer service... So, been here a couple of times. Food is good and fresh shakes are great for the kids. Normally solid. I wanted to add a plain burger bun (for my kid) to my large order for the whole family. The server taking my order did not know how to put this through so asked the manager (I guess?). The manager(?) told the server to put it through as a veggie sandwich (sorry this is boring for me too but there we go) which costs £3.95. Obviously, I said that wasn't going to work as it is just plain bread. Could she charge me for fries or something instead? The server went to check. Discussion. Nope. That was the only option. Really? I'm about to spend about nearly £30. Can't do me a bun for less than £3.95? Nope. Okay. So I cancelled the order and went to MacDonald's instead. Sad times. Thanks for sticking with the moan. Poor customer service took me away from a local business.

It's a take away only...what more can I say..burgers a great...

Fast, tasty and always hassle free. Thx, you are the best!

Great burgers, good selection of meal deals and the milkshakes are 10/10 - lotus one is my go to

Fat needs changing in the fryers

Still one of the best Burgers in Brighton

Uncle sams is a family favourite and its making my mouth water thinking of it.. ...

Always on point never had a problem always polite and friendly chilly cheese burgers out off this world not found a better one yet well recommend

Great food, friendly staff, order is always correct. Which is a great deal more than can be said of other fast food outlets locally.

Excellent Veggie and Vegan options, better than Macdonald's. Great service, will happily go again.Food is hot and tasty and they don't skimp on ingredients.

Polite friendly staff, tidy, clean and nice HOT food. Thx

Great burgers and crispy fries 👍

We ordered burgers. Live close by. Took about 40 minutes as Uber had another delivery. Burgers were tasty but cold. Chips were brown, almost burnt, dry as if reheated and Stone cold. Would have returned meals but going out so not possible.Not a happy experience!! Will go elsewhere.

Will never use again rude ignorent staff food was cold half cooked burger chips cold after 15 seconds leaving the shop. I'm getting in touch with health and safety.

Tasty burger and excellent brownies.

Quick service Going there was a third less money than deliveroo Staff friendly

Best customer service! Best food Thank you x

Good staff quick service and very polite 👍🏼 👌👌👌👌👌

Rude staff, and always wrong orders

It’s gonna be a straight 1 because of bad attitude to the customers as well as to the drivers who are waiting to collect orders.

Absolutely worst burger and terrible service never come again. Better to go BK.

Cold food bad service. Rude staff. Will never use again even if last food on earth.

Kind, friendly and quick service.

The best fast food burger you can get. Brilliant value, loads of varieties, fresh salad and a proper meaty burger. The fella on the counter who served us was really busy but efficient and friendly. Recommended!

Order in the bag was different to what I ordered all 3 burgers were wrong

Really good. Could have done with a little more sauce

Burgers great as per last 40 years. Shame no phone orders or delivery to lewes!

We each had a lovely Blue cheese burger and chips. We sat in the bus shelter outside for Social Distancing. We're both in our 70s!!! Yum

Better than mc donalds, yet similar price, so over all good value.

Ordered through Uber eats arrived 40 mins after leaving the kitchen was disgusting cold. Chips where conjealed together. All in a waste of a takeaway

Tasty fries and delicious burgers

I cannot wear a mask for medical reasons when I told this to the manager he told me that he has the right to refuse, he then gave a delivery order to a delivery driver and told me the driver has a medical condition and does not need to wear one. So uncle Sams sends delivery drivers to peoples doors without masks. Really thing they should thing about the safety of customers and not the pennies in the pockets.Uncle Sams Hollingbury Brighton

Best in Brighton by far. Great friendly staff. Food cooked to perfection.

Hit and miss, seems to be that it depends on who's working, times it's the best and times it's the worst. Forgetting parts of your order seems to be a thing though unfortunately, not sure how this happens when it's on a order screen.

Came here as a last resort due to 7Bone and Five Guys having a wait of over an hour. We should of come here first because the food is top notch and you never go wrong with an Uncle Sams. The staff were friendly and polite as well as being patient to understand me through the face mask and other covid protocols. Unfortunately we couldn’t eat in the restaurant so instead we stood outside in Gale force winds and devoured our Texas burgers and milkshakes. The food was piping hot and our order was prepared very quickly. If you’re on the fence then you have to give it ago.

What can I say but Yummmm.......lovely!

Uncle Sam's on Carden Avenue is an odd place - it has security bars in place at the tills that speak of problems and give it a strange atmosphere, but the Veggie Deluxe burger is scrummy :)

Great value for money. Tasty burgers and milkshakes.

Undoubtedly the best burger shop in the UK. I have moved to Newhaven now but still get cravings for uncle Sam's cheeseburger and milkshake. I'm suprised the banana milkshake is legal it tastes unbelievably delicious. When this lockdown clears I'm heading straight to uncle Sam's Price could be a bit cheaper though

Can't beat an uncle Sam's and the one in hollingbury has lovely people working there.

I used to treat myself to an uncle Sam's in the 80s when I had money so when I was in Carden ave in December I stopped and got one and it was like i had never been away, still amazing flavours

Just ordered large chilli burgers got home not a chilli burger fries are cold couldnt have milk shake machine not working , terrible never use there again

Quick and friendly service. Its fast food afterall

1 of the best burgers in England

Great burgers cooked to order good staff

Uncle Sam's used to be great but recently my burgers and fries have been cold or only just warm. Best thing is the milkshakes

Lovely burgers and nuggets nice variety of food to suit all tastes.

Love the burgers and fries, coming from a burger hater from certain other fast food chains burger that are more like a slice of process ham.

Very good service and it was very nice to be able to sit down to eat

I've just been to Carden Avenue and ordered a Veggie Samwich with no pickles and just a little bit of mayo. What I got was a lettuce sandwich with lots of mayo!! There was NO CHEESE and I saw a little bit of red mixed with the lettuce and mayo which must have been the thinnest slither of tomato I've ever seen. The person serving was very polite but the person doing the food can't follow instructions and clearly needs training. What an absolute waste of money. I ate it as I couldn't be bothered to drive back to get a refund or ask for another one.

The veggie burger I ordered was literally just lettuce and mayo...they said the veggie burger doesnt actually include a burger....what is this world we live in??

Sadly no longer the best burgers I Brighton gone downhill since my last visit , soggy badly prepare burgers

Considering the cost, we had a less than average quality meal. The burger buns seemed thin and soggy. Poor quality, I'm sorry to say. Some of the tables hadn't been cleaned and cleared. Not a good impression!

It was OK, handy when you don't feel like cooking

Overall tasted good, and we all enjoyed the freshness of the Burgers!

My son loves the burgers here. We average once a week!!

Love this place reminds me of my childhood

Gorgeous freshly cooked burgers.

I had fond memories of this Uncle Sams when it opened way back in the 80's. As with some holiday destinations it can be fatal to revisit old haunts and that was the case here. Whilst my culinary tastes have moved on over the last thirty odd years, dear old Uncle Sams haven't, either that or my salt and raw onion tolerance is much lower than it used to be.
