One of my website design bug-bears is the use of hamburger menus [three lines] which you have to click on to open the menu. These started use on apps and websites on smaller screens, where they do serve a purpose. But on a website like this one? No. In usability terms it's an unnecessary click for the visitor - more so if you have to return to the home page - where the opened menu will have closed. In this case, why not just put the menu/links across the top of the page? my opinion of why designers use the hamburger? It makes the top of the page look 'cleaner'. A case of style over substance.
