The latest stop on the #FatBoyBurgerTour was Byron at the o2 Arena. As far as burger chains go, it's a good one.
We got to the o2 early to watch the NBA London game between the Knicks and the Bucks and decided to choose something very American to eat from the huge choice of restaurants available, a burger.
I got there first out of my group of friends and was shown to a table by the window, a pretty comfortable corner booth. Considering the sold out basketball game happening in a few hours, It was surprisingly quiet when I arrived, (in contrast to the people queueing to get into Nando's), but by the time we left it was rammed, so I guess my advice is get there early.
When the rest of our group arrived, we ordered an array of milkshakes (and one cranberry juice). The waitress recommended the Oreo shake which was incredible! Just shy of needing a spoon to eat it, it was the perfect consistency.
The burgers here are good. Not earth-shattering, but good nevertheless. I chose a Smoky: Smoked Cheddar, streaky bacon, crispy fried onions (on the side), shredded iceberg, pickles and smoked chilli BBQ sauce. I doubled up the burger for an extra £3.50 too, and ordered a portion of (limp) fries.
Overall a good experience, and one I'd be happy to repeat, although at roughly £20 a head, not one I'll be repeating too often. read more
