ᴡ PicklesFebruary 15, 2017Never had a Byron burger before. It was great. Non greasy and cooked to my liking. Med rare. They have me fries instead of sweet potato. Punk IPA small can WA near to £5 outrageousUpvote5Downvote
whatharrysdoneApril 9, 2014Really great burgers here. Try the cheese with blue cheese, the Byron or if you're feeling naughty the B-REX. Wash it down with a Camden Hells lager.Upvote4Downvote
Ric SanteuginiJuly 26, 2018Service is excellent. I think understaffed some days. Food is good. The cheese fries with bacon are great

AndrewMay 2, 2013Nice airy branch of Byron - it's worth walking away from Soho to avoid the queues and/or crowds at the more central locations. Oh, and always GO DOUBLE!Upvote2Downvote
L DJanuary 13, 2018I had the smashed avocado burger. It was good but the meat could have done with more seasoning. It was cooked as I asked for it though and service was quick!!!UpvoteDownvote

DevontaJuly 3, 2015Randomly stopped in cause I was hungry. The burger wasn't amazing but it was light and filling. A little on the expensive side. Service was slow.

Kristo VaherJuly 16, 2013Really bland tasting meat on two different burgers, requiring manual salting. Also the service was really slow and order got mixed up, but this may depend on the staff working at the time.UpvoteDownvote
