You got a monster for $6... it tastes good and they def cook to order. It takes a while during lunch hours but when I want a cheap burger I cant find anything better. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/someplace-just-like-blarney-stone#post-4903 Thu, 12 Nov 2009 09:20:06 -0500 Samwich 4903@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>Ive had the sliders and rings...they were pretty good!!...but they smelled like pure stomach ache.<br /> dont think i would like the burger cuz i think they use rolls as opposed to actual buns. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/someplace-just-like-blarney-stone#post-4902 Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:06:25 -0500 deanlo 4902@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>blarney's is good for their value. you get a half pound burger with fries for 6 bucks. during the really busy times, their fries become more like deep fried quartered potatoes which would probably equate to 'bad' for most people but psychologically it excites me.</p> <p>They also honor doneness pretty consistently. plus their high turnover means beef is fresh. it's just a really big lunch in a minimalist establishment. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/someplace-just-like-blarney-stone#post-4899 Wed, 11 Nov 2009 17:27:24 -0500 TheFatBaron 4899@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>I haven't had one in a while, but when I worked near there, it was cheap, big, and pretty good. Not great, not Shake Shack, or any sort of fancy beef blend, but good.</p> <p>As far as the onion rings thing goes, I've experienced less-than-awesome onion rings from there before... but even then, they were still pretty good. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/someplace-just-like-blarney-stone#post-4894 Wed, 11 Nov 2009 16:15:12 -0500 adamprato 4894@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>For those of us who haven't gone to blarney stone yet, what's the deal with their burgers?</p> <p>When i want a burger fix, I either get the schnitz burger or I go to Judge Roy Bean (I like their onion rings). </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/someplace-just-like-blarney-stone#post-4893 Wed, 11 Nov 2009 16:09:02 -0500 Mamacita 4893@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>I love Blarney Stone, even though their onion rings have gone downhill, but I want to expand my cheap-burger horizons. (plus still getting a cheap beer or drink option) Is there another pub that rivals the Blarney Stone deal, has a burger/beer special to one up Blarney? </p> <p>(just bored and love to hear your thoughts :-) ) </p>
