Came here on my last day in London. I'm bumping up to a 4 for really high quality service, but the…read morefood was just okay. Clearly I'm an American, so I know my burgers. What can I say, my country is filled with the obese and fat-loving community. I came here because I was just craving a burger and was amused by the "holy cheesemus" stuff on the outside. Not that I ordered it (Asian American, so lactose is my frienemy). I had the regular burger with a side of fries. The fries itself (crisps? No idea what the locals call it) were crunchy and yummy. When I ordered the burger, my waiter asked if I wanted it medium, and like a proper carnivore, I asked for mid-rare. Rare if it's a slab of steak (make note!). My burger came out...mid-well. It was a good tasting burger, and I didn't feel like being the jerk to send it back. It wasn't burnt or bad tasting, just not expected to get a mid-well. It even had a little flag saying it was mid-rare. It's fine...I realized during my time in London that the UK just doesn't know how to rare up meat. So at this point, I'd give a 3 star. But the manager (I learned later...) came by to grab my empty plates (points for managers who "dirty" their hands), and asked me how it was. I...hesitated and he kinda knew there was something off. I told him about the mid-rare thing and he asked if he could get me dessert or something. Being utterly stuffed, I declined and asked for the check. To my surprise, there was a 20% off. When I asked my waiter why, he said the manager took it off because of the mid-rare thing! NICE! I don't blame the Byron, as I just figure that London doesn't know how to do American-style meat temps. So, I left the "discount" as a tip. Yes, I realize UK doesn't do tips. I'm still American and they can just think I paid full price.

When in the UK, supposedly its a must to try out this burger place. Considering we eat a lot of…read moreburgers in the US and they all taste the same to me, I was pretty skeptical about Byron. So they do have several locations and the one we went to was located on The Cut (ouch~). I tried the Byron and it came with a fried pickle (yum!). Burger didn't taste extra special, but it was still good. I also got some loaded fried to go along with it (fellow Americans - you will have to order fries with it - it doesn't just come with it like in the US). Also, get the mac and cheese - it's pretty good. I also tried their Soda Folk Cherry - very good and nice change from a regular coke.

Saw several locations before finally stopping in this one, my curiosity piqued by their advertising…read moreof being THE spot to get a "proper burger." Spoiler alert, they are overpriced and need improvement, as do the shakes. The burgers at the pub across the street are probably a better bet, unfortunately. Burger was received as ordered, double-stack. Their house beer cheese is tasty and the beef is flavorful and juicy. However, the patties are poorly formed, largely unseasoned, and small (6oz, hence the double). Mixed feelings on this but a burger shouldn't be domed in the middle nor should it be without basic seasoning unless it really is superior quality. And even then! We also ordered a freakshake, something they're known for. Our server said they were out of multiple ingredients to make it, so we switched to an alcoholic shake (Reeses with a shot of rum, as advertised). We received a thin, icy concoction that didn't taste much like peanut butter, along with a separate shot to be mixed in ourselves, making the consistency even thinner. Oh, and they charged us more by billing separately for the shot. Two thumbs down, zero effort.

Getting back from Southampton late after being at a game, we were hungry and needed a quick bite…read more That can be hard to come by in the Earl's Court neighborhood. Thankfully Byron was still open and able to seat us. My husband and I both had the Byron burger with a beer and my niece indulges in the brownie sundae. The bacon was thick, the cheddar was plentiful and the Byron sauce added a nice layer of flavor but didn't overwhelm the burger. Our waitress was attentive but not hovering and pleasant to have. The food was simple and tasty. Nothing super fancy, but hit the spot at this late hour. Great local chain that reminded me of some of the local chains back home. Simple, good food. No fuss, but grills a good burger.

Meh. As an American missing home, I thought I'd give this place a try since it received generally…read morepositive reviews for its burgers. I wasn't impressed. I ordered the basic cheeseburger and I don't think the meat was of particularly high-quality. Also, it was cold. I also ordered their limited time only roasty tater tots. When I went to pick them up, however, they had run out of tots, and so they gave me a pile of french fries that I could dip in the gravy. Not exactly the same thing, but I thought I'd give it a shot. The fries were cold, so it didn't really much matter. The gravy was also cold. The gravy would probably be good if it were served at room temperature let alone hot. Food temperature and quality aside, the right thing to do would have been to refund the cost of the tots, not try to substitute fries without my agreement. If I had the chance to do it over, I'd skip this place.

After 11 days in Italy we found ourselves craving something besides pasta. We needed something…read moreother than pizza. We needed a burger. Enter Byron's. Located right across the street from the Gloucester Road station it's really easy to find. And around 12:30 on a Sunday there were plenty of seats. Byron's is modern, yet comfortable. Staff is friendly and they make up a mean burger. Both the Hubs and I ordered the BYRON Burger - with bacon, cheddar, shredded iceberg, tomato, red onion and Byron sauce. At £9.25 the dish doesn't come with fries which is a bit of a bummer, and in turn a bit expensive. But we made sure to add a couple sides to try. The fries (£2.95) were mighty tasty. The order come in a nice size bowl that's easy to share. We also ordered up the courgette fries (fried zucchini sticks) (£3.25). I didn't love these...I guess I'd rather just stick to fresh/crisp zucchini instead of fried. Hubs liked them though. We ended with milkshakes to go. Yum. We spent about £32 ($55) on two burgers, two sides and two shakes. Which, generally, is a bit expensive for us but overall - Byron's a really good meal. Burger was seasoned nicely and cooked as asked. Soft bun. And I'm usually not fan of "secret sauces" but this one is really tasty, don't go without it.

This restaurant is a chain and this particular location was super convenient for us being very close to our hotel. There was also plenty of seating so even though we arrived during prime dinner time, we were seated right away. Our waiter was awesome. Very welcoming and friendly. We were between 2 burgers: the Le Bleu Burger and the Smashed avocado burger so we asked for both to be sliced in half. This way we could both enjoy the burgers. While both burgers were delicious, the Bleu Burger was the way to go! Only one other burger place I've been to pulled off honey on a burger so I was very skeptical. But this burger was just perfect. The sweet blended with the savory so nicely. I will mention that I felt like we were waiting for our burgers for quite awhile. I almost said something because a gentleman arrived by himself a bit after us got his burger before us! I was pretty upset because his burger looked like the one we ordered so I was like not cool. He must have been a regular, but still. Despite that hiccup, the burgers were good enough to return for. Just plan accordingly and expect to wait a little bit for your food. Enjoy!

FOOD I got the double smashed burger with cheddar cheese…read more I've never had a burger in England before and didn't know what to expect. As an American, I feel we have good authority on knowing a good vs bad burger. However, exposure to quantity of burgers doesn't always mean they're QUALITY. Honest Burgers humbled me with their quality. This was the best burger I've had in recent memory. I want to say "of all time" because it might be. A picture is worth a thousand words so please check out my photos to see what I'm talking about. First, the attention to the bun was epic. Toasted root beer brown instead of just slapping some buns out of a bag together and calling it a day. Every bite reminded me someone took the time to toast the bread and it worked so well with the meat. Second, the smash patties were cooked so nicely that they had that brown fatty crusting on the edges that gave that familiar beef flavour. Perfectly salted. Now the third reason is they did the right thing with the cheese. They didn't just melt it - they melted and crisped it on the edges to complement those perfect patties. It was filling but I almost ordered a second burger, which I've never contemplated in my life before. To give credit to American burgers, I think this place studied American cuisine and found a way to make it better. The chopped onions and sliced pickles at the bottom of their burgers (delicious and in my photos) is reminiscent of the McDonald's formula, but gourmet. The rosemary chips (French fries) were seasoned nicely but, obvious from the photos, weren't the main attraction. I'd give the fries a 4 out of 5. Didn't get a chance to try their many sauces but guess what? I'll be back tomorrow for that! SERVICE Excellent and friendly service. Conversational yet hustling which is a great sign of management and hiring. AMBIANCE Lovely artisanal burger joint. Decent amount of searing and centrally located on the street. It's literally sticking out and pointing in the middle of the boulevard like the bow of a ship. Just a beautiful spot in general.
