About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions

We're named after Fletcher "Old Dave" Davis, one of the probable inventors of the hamburger back in the 1880's. At Old Dave's we aim to bring justice to Fletcher's simple creation, reinventing our menu regularly.

    Despite being able to book a table for this restaurant, when we arrived it was closed.

    I booked a table through open table but arrived at the restuarant to find it was closed. Im not sure if its a permanent closure but was a shame!

    Overall we really enjoyed the evening. The service was friendly and our meal didn’t take too long to arrive. Everyone loved their burgers but the chips were lukewarm which was disappointing. Also when we had finished our meal & wanted to order more drinks & see the dessert menu, getting someone to take our order took quite a while & we literally had to grab a passing waiter! That said, we would definitely eat there again.

    we were given a table right in front of the bar and spent most of our meal with a bunch of strangers butts (not nice butts) in our face while we were eating and trying to have an intimate chat. When we moved ourselves to a quieter table (that didn’t get used the whole time we were there) we were asked to move back. Can’t fault the food though, nice place for a group of mates to catch up and get a bit merry, but I wouldn’t recommend it for a date night.

    Saturday dinner Have been to this burger place before. Food is lovely but I feel now slightly overpriced. Beers came quickly, but then we waited 50 minutes for our food. Unsure why, as restaurant was not full, maybe due to staff change over time and short staffed?

    Amazing burger, had the Tennessee. My only negative was that as I only ordered a burger it came in a small bowl, when eating the burger lots of juices ran out. So when I put my burger down it got a very soggy bun and I had to use cutlery to eat it! The burger was amazing but I would have liked to enjoy it without a soggy bun!

    This is my 2nd visit here, food is amazing! Nice freshly cooked burgers all hand prepared! All produce and meat comes from local farms etc. All staff are really friendly and helpful! I would highly recommend that you pay this place a visit, you will not be disappointed!
