Some other burger aficionados we knew were sampling the burger when we arrived, and there was a moment of drama when the waiter momentarily informed us they were out of patties. Fortunately the moment passed and burgers were available. The cheddar was sharp and the pickled Spanish onions provided savoury flavour which was the best bit about the whole burger. The patty didn't taste particularly venison-y (cf The Portlander burger), but was pleasant enough. The bun was a little dry. One of the other burger aficionados commented (as a compliment) that it was a bit like a really good homemade burger, which I think is fair (if only I could make Spanish onions like that). The fries were satisfactory. I award 'The Classic' 7.6/10.
