Upon entering the restaurant, I felt like having a hamburger so I searched on Tabelog for a good place and found one. The restaurant was located underground and had Wi-Fi available. I ordered the cheese avocado burger. The meat was thick and satisfying to eat! The cheese was melted perfectly. I felt that there was not enough juice from the meat, so it would have been even better if it was juicier.

This was my first dinner at a burger joint where I often came for lunch. At night, they offer unique burgers instead of set meals, so I had a hard time choosing. I ordered the Niagara Burger for 1,880 yen. As the name suggests, it's overflowing with cheese, coating everything except the top bun (lol). Of course, the overflow doesn't really make it a burger that can be put in a burger bag, but it's delicious when dipped with the side potato. The burger features a double beef patty that is incredibly juicy and flavorful. The rich mayonnaise sauce and generous cheese sauce complement the coarse-ground patty perfectly. Even just the patty alone is delicious, but it's interesting that they create such playful burgers. The patty is thick enough on its own, but being a double, it's quite a challenge to take a big bite. Each bite is full of volume and juiciness. It was simply amazing. We also had bottled beer for 700 yen and avocado shrimp for 880 yen as it was nighttime, but the highlight was definitely the outstanding burgers at this place. #TokyoGourmet #TokyoHamburger #ShibuyaGourmet #ShibuyaHamburger #HatagayaGourmet #HatagayaLunch #HatagayaHamburger #WantToConnectWithFoodies #WantToConnectWithBurgerLovers #HatagayaPlug #BurgerStandPlug

Exit the north exit of Hatagaya Station on the Keio New Line, walk about 3 minutes towards Shinjuku on Koshu Kaido, and you will find a burger restaurant called "Burger Stand Plug" in a relatively new building just a little past the New Niigata Soy Ginger Ramen, Gamushara. I visited for the first time around 2 pm on a day off. The exterior of the restaurant is made of exposed concrete, and you have to go down the stairs to the basement floor to enter. Inside, there is a stylish American atmosphere with a spacious space, including 4 two-person tables, sofa seats, and a counter. Pets are also allowed. The menu is divided into categories such as Special, Standard, Cheese, Chicken, and Seafood burgers, with prices starting from 1,080 yen to 1,180 yen for options like Teriyaki Chicken, Tartar Fish, and American Classic. Other burgers are priced just under 2,000 yen, with the standout being the Fujiyama Burger at 4,980 yen, which piqued my interest. Toppings are plentiful, and there are also sides like fries and onion rings, as well as shakes. They also serve alcoholic beverages. After some consideration, I decided to try the Macaroni & Cheese Burger from the Special menu. The Macaroni & Cheese Burger costs 1,680 yen. While waiting, the delicious smell of the patty being grilled during the cooking process made my mouth water. The dish was served in about 10 minutes, and it came with fries on the side. The burger had a towering appearance, with the patty topped with macaroni and cheese overflowing. I took a bite, and the patty was incredibly thick, juicy, and satisfying to chew. The bun was thick and toasted, with a soft interior. The creamy cheese and ample macaroni also added to the overall experience. Since there were no vegetables in the burger, I felt like I was indulging in a hearty meal. They accept payment through methods like PayPay and other QR code payments and electronic money. I enjoyed the cheese, so I plan to come back next time to try the Niagara Burger, which features a cheese waterfall design.

I have been visiting various restaurants in Hatagaya for about 5 years now, and this place was the best. It is located underground facing the Koshu Kaido, so I was a little nervous when entering (lol). The staff's service is good, and the interior is lovely. Above all, the level of the burgers is extremely high, so I think it will continue to thrive. The moment I put the freshly baked crispy buns and the same freshly baked patty in my mouth is the best. The side of potatoes and pickles are also good. It seems that pets are also allowed, so I want to bring my dog next time.

Bacon Cheeseburger (Cheeseburger with Bacon) & Iced Coffee @ BURGER STAND PLUG Located a short distance from Hatagaya Station, when you descend underground, you'll find a spacious American casual-style restaurant with a lot of space to sit (I later realized there is also an elevator haha). You can enjoy watching them prepare the food right in front of you from the counter. The menu is also interesting, with a booklet designed like a Western music album cover, adding a stylish and fun touch. [Bacon Cheeseburger] Although it's not on the menu, I added bacon as a topping to the Cheeseburger. The buns are nicely toasted, crispy on the outside and soft inside, with a subtle wheat flavor and not too sweet, giving a refreshing taste. The patty, hand-chopped and chunky, has a great meaty texture and a satisfying bite. The patty seems to be 180g, making it quite substantial compared to others. The other ingredients include thinly sliced red onion, melted cheddar cheese, mayonnaise sauce, all kept simple. The bacon topping is a thin slice folded and sandwiched in. Since the patty is the star, the bacon topping might not stand out much. Also worth mentioning is that there are no cold vegetables like lettuce or tomato, so you can enjoy the burger in a very hot state. It comes with crispy fried potatoes and pickles as sides, offering a satisfying amount. The iced coffee is a strong extraction type, which goes well with the hearty burger. Overall, I felt that this burger allows you to really savor the buns and meat. If you're looking to enjoy a meaty burger, definitely give it a try. Thank you for the meal!

Today, as planned, I was able to make time during the day, so I visited popular new restaurants in Kamata, Ogikubo, and Nakano before moving to Hatagaya. The fourth place I visited was a gourmet burger restaurant called "BURGER STAND PLUG" that I had been curious about. "BURGER STAND PLUG" opened in Hatagaya in April this year and has received great reviews for its gourmet burgers. Personally, I had been interested in this restaurant after seeing reviews from followers, but I hadn't been able to find the right time to visit. Today, I had some time to spare in the afternoon, and since I was in the mood for gourmet burgers, I decided to visit this place. Located to the left (towards Hatsudai) after exiting the north exit of Hatagaya Station, the restaurant is on the B1F of a building with other tenants. The entrance is like a single door, but there are clear signs on the independent staircase and the building entrance. The interior of the restaurant has a cafe-bar atmosphere and is quite nice. There are counter seats, table seats, and even sofa seats, and when I visited around 7:45 PM, there were no customers before or after me. I ordered the B.L.T.A.C BURGER (Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato, Avocado, Cheese Burger) for 1680 yen and a Hoegaarden White beer for 700 yen. The Hoegaarden White beer arrived promptly after ordering, followed by the B.L.T.A.C BURGER in about 10 minutes. The burger was quite substantial with a high elevation. The patty was thick and had a rough texture, giving a meaty and juicy flavor. The buns had a slightly textured surface and were soft inside, with a nice wheat aroma. The bacon was not too thickly cut or strongly grilled, but it had a juicy flavor and some appeal, though it was somewhat overshadowed by the thick patty. The cheddar cheese melted nicely and added a flavorful touch to the patty. The onions were thinly sliced and had a mild flavor, standing out from the other vegetables on the burger. The ripe avocado was soft and paired well with the meaty patty. The tomato was sweet and juicy, and the lettuce provided a crunchy and fresh balance to the meaty patty. The burger had a mayo sauce on both the crown and heel, adding a nice touch. Despite the heavy patty, the burger was well-balanced with plenty of vegetables, and I enjoyed it. The fried potato wedges were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, with a light saltiness that paired well with the leftover meat juice and sauce in the burger bag. Overall, considering the price range for gourmet burgers, the cost-performance ratio is decent.

I revisited the restaurant because the cheeseburger I had last time was delicious. I ordered a simple original burger with double patties, which looked very hearty. The price was 1,630 yen including a soft drink. The thick patties made of minced meat sandwiched between buns looked very appetizing. When I actually tasted it, I devoured the burger without any hesitation. The patty was pure "meat". It was made only of beef and had a great texture due to the coarse grinding. Even with just one patty, it was thick enough, but with the double patties, it was a challenge to take big bites. Each bite was full of volume and juiciness. The rich special mayonnaise sauce added to the experience, making it even better. For lunch, the simple burger or cheeseburger is a great deal, but they have various other burgers on the menu for à la carte, so I might try them next time when I visit in the evening. #TokyoGourmet #TokyoHamburger #ShibuyaGourmet #ShibuyaHamburger #HatagayaGourmet #HatagayaLunch #HatagayaHamburger #WantToConnectWithFoodies #WantToConnectWithBurgerLovers #HatagayaPlug #BurgerStandPlug #TokyoHamburger #ShibuyaHamburger #HatagayaHamburger #HatagayaLunch #HamburgerLovers #BurgerStandPlug

I felt like having a hamburger, so I was thinking of going to Arms in Yoyogi Park, but it was close to 12 o'clock and I would probably have to wait, so I decided to visit Plugg for the first time. It is located in the basement of a building with a Korean chicken restaurant on the first floor. If you overlook the sign, you might pass by it. The restaurant is not very spacious, but it has a stylish American atmosphere. It is a place for authentic American burgers, but the prices are more reasonable compared to similar burger shops in the neighborhood. When you order a burger, it comes with fries and homemade pickles on the side. I ordered the Cheese Egg Bacon Burger with a single patty. It was generous in portion, hot, and I enjoyed changing the taste with the ketchup and mustard on the table. The patty was thick and hearty. Personally, I prefer a softer patty that melts in your mouth, but this one was firm and substantial. It's a burger that men would enjoy. Plugg is a burger shop with a high rating in terms of atmosphere, taste, cost performance. I will visit again.

Thank you for the meal. ■Rating at the time of visit 3.08

The portions are huge and everything is delicious! There are no bad choices here! In addition to the burgers, the desserts are also amazing, so I recommend trying them as well! This place is perfect for bringing your dog along and enjoying a relaxing meal. It's the best restaurant!

Today's burger, Hawaiian, with pineapple, avocado, and bacon, priced at 1,680 yen, plus a cola for 400 yen, totaling a luxurious lunch at 2,080 yen. Despite it being a weekday lunchtime, there was no lunch set available, possibly due to the Obon holiday period. I ordered from the default menu. The sweetness of the pineapple, the richness of the avocado, the saltiness and crunch of the bacon, and the meaty main patty all come together perfectly. The crispy bun holds everything in place. This is a high-quality burger. The menu was sandwiched between pamphlets for the movie Flashdance, adding to the atmosphere. The interior of the restaurant also has a solid American vibe, creating a great ambiance. The regular lunch menu is a bit more affordable, so I will try that next time. Dining in this building is enjoyable.

While walking along Koshu Kaido Street, I came across a hamburger shop and decided to try it out. It opened on April 18, 2022, so it's relatively new. I ordered the Mexican Chili Burger (1380 yen) which came with a burger, fries, pickles, and a simple yet flavorful patty. The portion size was quite generous. The lunch special on weekdays is around 1000 yen, which I found to be reasonable for the quality and quantity of food.

The burger shop is located about a 3-minute walk from Hatagaya Station. The interior has a 1970-80s vibe and pets are allowed inside. I thought I would get a freshly grilled burger after a short wait, but when it arrived, it was a bit cold which was disappointing. They had a variety of burger options available.

When it comes to Hatagaya, it's only 2 stops away from Shinjuku on the Keio New Line, but there are many nice locally-oriented stores in the area. There are also many delicious burger joints like Chess Garden and Freeman Shokudo. In April of this year, a highly anticipated new restaurant opened in Hatagaya! This time, I visited "Burger Stand PLUG". First, I had a sip of beer. I tried the "Pabst Blue Ribbon ¥730". They also have a variety of craft beers available, but they were sold out on this day. As for the burger, I ordered the "Bacon Cheeseburger ¥1,480". It's actually a cheeseburger with bacon on top. It comes with plenty of fries and a pickle on the side. What surprised me first was that the burger was piping hot. Even through the burger bag, it was too hot to hold with my hands. The cheddar cheese melted nicely from the residual heat and coated the beef patty beautifully. The beef patty is coarse-ground and stands out powerfully. Even as a single patty, it weighs about 225g, so it's quite satisfying to eat. The unity of the patty and cheese is amazing. The bacon topping is also meaty and flavorful. The vegetables are quite minimal to let the meat shine. A few slices of red onion on the heel buns, and no tomatoes or lettuce, so you can savor the meat directly. The elastic buns support the patty simply but effectively. While waiting for the burger, they also give you a movie pamphlet, which is an interesting touch. It's not tailored to individual customers, but it's like saying, "Let's take more risks, shall we?" Just a 2-3 minute walk from Hatagaya Station. Located in the basement of a building along Koshu Kaido. Dogs are also welcome. It seemed quite busy with only one staff member on this day, but each customer was treated with care. Above all, the meaty patty is irresistible, so I can't wait to see what they have in store for the future!

Located in Hatagaya along the Koshu Highway, this underground restaurant is still relatively new and mainly attracts salarymen during lunchtime, according to the staff. Even during lunch hours, you can choose from the regular menu, so I ordered the Cheese, Bacon, and Fried Egg burger. I personally like their straightforward style of not including unnecessary vegetables. The focus on quality meat really shines through in the flavor. They say it's also popular with foreigners. I hope that someday this place becomes well-known, and I can proudly say, "I went there when it first opened." I'll be rooting for them.

Burger restaurant opened in April 2022. This new building in Hatagaya is bustling with other eateries like Korean and Thai cuisine. I walked in after seeing the sign and was pleasantly surprised by the meaty and delicious-looking burgers. I had the lunch cheeseburger for 1,080 yen with a 200 yen upgrade for iced coffee. The cheese and thick patty between the buns looked simple yet appetizing. And when I took a bite, it was a pure burger experience. Especially the patty, it's all about the "meat". The coarse grind gives it a great texture, and it's truly made of just beef. It reminded me of a certain popular burger chain's amazing cheeseburger, but with more volume and authenticity. A burger that makes you want to come back for more. #TokyoEats #TokyoBurgers #ShibuyaEats #ShibuyaBurgers #HatagayaEats #HatagayaLunch #HatagayaBurgers #FoodiesUnite #BurgerLoversUnite #HatagayaPlug #BurgerStandPlug #tokyohamburger #shibuyahamburger #hatagayahamburger #hatagayalunch #hamburgerlovers #burgerstandplug

The atmosphere was great, and the staff were kind and engaging, making it a comfortable experience! The cheeseburger was delicious, and I would love to visit again!

The hamburger is juicy and delicious!

The cost performance is not great, but the taste is top-notch. Coarsely ground and packed with juicy chewiness.
