went to five guys and £8 for a burger with no fries?
£5 for a milkshake?
total bill for 1 person was £15.50. yeah it was good but i think it's ridiculously priced for a fast food restaurant. the place was rammed as well and didn't have any spare tables so i can't see why they would drop their prices but i honestly think burger king is better overall.
paying that type of money you would want it served on a plate and table service tbh.

Dry looking lettuce
fried egg? on a burger??
onions rings? on a burger??
Pickle on top of burger
Not a burger, unless you are a snake
other crap to burger ratio very poor
plank of wood instead of a plate
The fries look very nice though

Anyone tried the new Byron Burger at the Corn Exchange in Manchester?
May give it a try but the last 'prem burger' place I went to was GBK and I thought it was crap, not to mention daft on the cost for the size of meal we got
Oh and something abit different - Tried Cabana in Manchester, Braziallian place in the Corn Exchange
Awesome burgers!!!

based on this thread I went to Patty/Bun when in London the other week
Yeah was pretty, pretty good
beer was good
fries were good - chicken skin salt / mayo was OMG
burger was good - the bun was nicer at p/b - 7bone buns are a bit sloppy wet
wish id had the wings too now

Byron is a chain and is okay but not amazing.
Almost Famous and Filthy Cow are better
I almost put in brackets waiting for you to answer.
Yeah thought as much, shame but at least it saves a wasted trip.

Hmmm guess it's not a great picture.
The lettuce wasn't dry neither was the tomato.
Yes a fried egg. Yes on a burger. Where have you been man?
Onion rings. Yup - amazing.
It was a 10oz or maybe 12oz patty (can't remember). Agreed a little small, but not insignificant even for my gargantuan appetite - I eat about 4000 cals a day
I love fillings in my burgers. Don't get me wrong plain burgers are great, but I like something more interesting. This burger was delicious, the meat was medium rare and well seasoned. The total thing wasn't that big I grant you, but still over 500g of burger is relatively satisfying.
You missed the bacon and cheese there too - I suppose they are sacrilegious too
It was missing avocado but they didn't have any

Tried my first Byron burger today in Canary Wharf, so good.
Had the smokey with fries and onion rings. The rings, oh those rings.

I prefer Bread Meats Bread. People will all have their own preference though so just more reason to try them all... Bread Meats Bread is better though
It is with great sadness that I have to announce that it looks like Burger Meats Bun in Glasgow has closed and/or moved to Edinburgh. Your only choices now are Bread Meats Bread (which is pretty good but not as good), other restaurants, and the usual 5 Guys, GBK etc. RIP Burger Meats Bun, you are missed. I might have to go to Edinburgh especially for the haggis fries.
I've just had dinner, now I want second dinner.

Yea im a big Byron fan, seeing as the only decent burger joints in my area are GBK and Five Guys, I think it beats them easily, the B-Rex is just awesome, a great combo of sweet, savoury and mild spicyness.
Anyone been to Coggings and Co in Brighton? Burgers and the triple fried beer chips look delightful.
