I just went in for a decent burger and a glass of rouge...looked around, pretty empty...never been to one of these places before and they are supposed to be really good...but...no red wine...why? because apparently they were changing supplier and so having run out there was none to be had, though they had taken my order so it was all a little late to find that out Yes they were friendly, yes the burger was Ok but really...not sure at £12 I could be bothered to return to Byron if they are so badly organised; needless to say no tip read more

Was craving a burger and Byron called. I had see their sign from the DLR platform a number of time and decided it was time I gave it a try. The menu is monthwatering but finally decided on a Smoking Burger with sweet potato fries and an Oreo shake (as recommended in a review). The shake was soooo good and thick, and can never go wrong with potato fries (why can I never make them as good at home). Sadly the service was not great, the restaurant was about a 1/3 full and I felt forgotten. Other tables that arrived after me were served first. When our food came it was not hot. And we were ignore when trying to get wait staffs attention to pay the bill. We did give our feedback and the waiter was apologetic and gave us a discount on the bill. Because of his good service recovery I would return....maybe I'll get their freakshakes next time. read more

Very well prepared burger with quality ingredients and preparation on the exact point as requested. Very efficient and fast service. Spot a bit noisy. Avoid the armchairs attached to the back. read more

Byron - BBQ Burguer. - Burgers Near Me - London, XGL

I'm not a fan of diner style restaurants which flog hardly anything but burgers and chips (with the occasional salad). I'm not a massive fan of burgers anyway and I don't think anyone is judged for picking up a cheeky helping of fast-food if they're in a hurry but when I'm sitting in a restaurant/diner and ordering a meal, I don't want the choice to be one of only five or six (slightly) different burgers - or a salad. It's difficult to get excited about and there isn't much to look forward to, unless you're just plain starving and anything will do. Leaving my previous burger related grievances aside, this Byron just isn't very good. The staff were friendly but forgetful, managing to completely forget some of our order, although the rest of the meal which did arrive was OK - just OK though. The one and only highlight of this experience was their 'Courgette Fries'. Basically just strips of battered courgette, but quite nice it was. Byron try to design and decorate every outlet of theirs differently and I appreciate they have many outlets so this task becomes difficult to carry out after a while. This Byron, however, is quite a let down. It's unique design and decoration is... completely undesigned and undecorated. Just bare, exposed walls and ceilings. Structure work and wiring on display, the whole place looks as if the builders are only halfway through working on the place. You can see what they're obviously trying to do but the result is unappealing, deeply unattractive and actually just boring. None of this is helped by the school style wooden chairs that litter the place. Arse-numbingly uncomfortable. Believe it or not, I have previously enjoyed eating in a Byron but this experience was far removed from that one. It's only fair of me to acknowledge that many people do actually enjoy eating in burger peddling diners, which is fine for those who do but it has a time and a place for me. And that time isn't particularly often. Each to their own, I guess. Ian read more

What makes Byron great is not just the food, but the customer service. They spend time with each customer getting to know the table and really looking after you. This Bryon lives up to all the others and whats quite nice is its big and spacious so you don't feel like you're sitting on top of everyone. The food was yummy and quick, its good for a quick bite to eat. I had the chicken byron burger with a slice of avocado, and they didn't hold back on the avocado which I loved. read more

The Food is good as with the other Byron restaurants. This place feels a bit like a waiting room though and could do with some cheering up. The staff are friendly but the food can take a while to arrive. Basically worth going for the food. The other byron restaurants are better though. read more

OH EM GEE..haha, i generally don't dramatize this way but while i was eating my American Chili Burger at Byron's, I kept telling my boyfriend and our friend how delicious my burger is through my mouthful of delicious melange of beef and chili, and when we left the place, i continued to talk about how much i freaking loved my burger. I even complained to my bf for not ever having taken me here before in the last two years he's lived in London. My Chili burger was 8.75 quid, it came with a delicious pickle and i asked for onions in my burger. The burger came with a special chili sauce and then a layer of green chilis. Heavenly snots were running down my nose. I enjoyed every single bite because it was so perfectly layered. I wanted to have a second. Admittedly the burger was a bit on the small side, but if it wasn't that good, the size might have been good enough for me. I was surprised at how good their fries was as well. It's 3 quid to ask for fries but it's worth it. I think i've said enough. I'm so glad this is a chain, because no matter where I go, if Byron's is an option, i'm gonna be there for that chili burger. read more

People throw this phrase around a lot, but it's safe to say that Byron Burger (this particular one at least) provides one of the best burgers in town. A pleasant atmosphere, well spaced, with polite staff, nicely nestled away in the upper tier of the shopping centre to avoid a lot of the hustle and bustle. As far as burgers go, its understandable to believe they are a little on the pricey side, but these are not your every day Maccy D's or Burger King burgers. These are professional, well made, well cooked burgers cooked just how you want. All the sides are delicious, as are the desserts. All in all its a perfect way to start your evening, or to spend a lunch. I would recommend it to everyone. read more

Looking for a good American-style burger? Look no further! Byron's burgers are as close to an American-style burger as I've found in London (including GBK) - the patty is cooked to medium (you can request variations if you want to) and is very juicy, not unlike the yummy burgers to be had in NYC. The only slight let down is the bun, which is a little dry. The burger is served with a gherkin, and then you can order your extras (like fries!). Best of all, you can even get a fix of American cream soda, here! Just be wary at lunchtimes on a weekday as it gets pretty busy; alternatively you can get a takeaway burger (this is probably one of the few places in Canary Wharf where you can get a takeaway burger, other than Burger King...). Overall, a welcome addition to Canary Wharf's shopping centre. read more

There are many places offering burgers in town and you will find yourself inexplicably eating one living here. Dry cure bacon, mature Cheddar and Byronsauces £7.25 Here, it is the choice of having your burgers as a skinny (bun free) that I like. It lets me indulge in having bacon in my burger in replacement of the buns. read more

I'm American. As an American, I like burgers. As far as burgers go, Byron is pretty damn good. But the value that I look for isn't exactly there like many places in central London. A plus though - they have Brooklyn Lager, Sierra Nevada and Dixie in bottles. If you look at my reviews at all, you will know that one taste of Brooklyn Lager turns me into Frank the Tank. Fill it up again! read more

It's alright. Many have told me that Byron is much better than GBK, but they are actually about the same. The burgers here are on par to those at Fuddruckers. So it's decent. So far, I haven't had any cravings for Byron, so they are clearly missing something. read more

Went here for lunch recently after a big night out the night before. 3 hungry, hungover, guys needed some stodgy food so burgers seemed like a good choice. We all opted for the Byron burger (cheese and bacon with their special byron sauce). There isnt the massive choice of burgers like you get at a Gourmet Burger Kitchen but in some ways thats quite nice as GBK can feel a bit gimmicky. The burger tasted very good but is deceptively filling. We also got 3 sides, Fat Skin-on Chips, Onion Rings and Courgette fries. In hindsight perhaps we coud have managed with 2 sides. All the sides were very good too. Oh and how could I forget the Milkshakes? These are £4 but you get about a pint of milkshake which arrives in a chilled metal tumbler. They are so thick it requires some effort to suck it through the straw. The strawberry one had real pieces of strawberry in it too. All the food and the thick shake left us about ready to slip in to a food induced coma. Just what we were looking for! We spent about £18 each (including a tip), which when you think about it is quite a bit for a burger. Still I would much rather go here than a McDs or Burger King. read more

As far as American Burgers go, this is about as close as I've encountered in London. I had the Chicken sandwich which was very tasty (with Chedder Cheese added of course). The onion rings are trying to be a little to fancy and just end up tasting too fried. If you like UK style "chips", don't order the French Fries as my date informed me after I mistakenly ordered them ;)! If you want a nice meal that isn't too fancy (and you are a burger fan), it's a good bet. read more

Last night Byron was launching the campaign 'One feeds two' for charity and all their burgers were 25p so I thought there's no better excuse not to try Byron as I've never been. It's just that there's too many burger places in London that's either more popular or cheaper. We queued for an hour which I thought was ok as the queue was constantly moving. We sat down and ordered a B-Rex burger, a Byron burger, some courgette fries a an Oreo milkshake to share. The food came pretty quick and the staff was polite despite it was such a busy night and they must have been serving non stop all night. The burger was good as it was cooked the way I like it - medium/medium rare. The onion ring inside the burger was still crispy, the patty was juicy and the cheese was melting. It's not the best burger I've had but it was still satisfying and better than I thought it'd be. The courgette fries were golden crispy, first time having courgette fries and it was yummy! Though the highlight was the Oreos milkshake, I was hooked on the first sip. It was milkshake heaven!! Thick creamy vanilla ice cream blended with sweet, tasty Oreos. Plus the bill only came to £8.50 for both of us with and we did our bit for charity. Amazing burger night with excellent staff as we weren't rushed at all and they were still all so friendly during such a busy chaotic night! x read more

Favourites burger stop when I am working in Canary Wharf and the milkshakes are so dope!

Quite frankly I'm writing this more on my OH's behalf than myself. Persuading her to have a burger requires a certain amount of arm twisting or the usual too-ing and fro-ing of a relationship as to where we're eating that night. The fact that after eating there my OH responded by saying we could go there anytime was something I seized on and there have been a number of return visits. Myself, I love a good burger and so far, Byron's are the best I've tasted. There's no endless options, they keep it simple and high quality. This particular venue we arrived at 5:30 ish on a week day and only one of couple were in there. So the service couldn't really get it wrong, neither really could the chef. If you're after a burger, milkshake and fries. You can really go wrong. read more

I've eaten here a couple of times. Burgers are delish but I'm not a fan of the chunky fries - always still too hard inside. I like the fact that I can swap the beef for chicken in any of the burgers so I don't miss out on the selection. Sauces are nice but annoying you have to pay extra for them. read more

As already pointed out the burgers really are tasty high quality beef type and cooked well they have always done medium-rare just how I like it. Little difficult to find if you did not know where they were. The real downside is they are silly priced and the fact that they close so early on a Saturday. Guys, bring the price down and make your times later and you will be onto a winner. read more

For tasty burgers at a decent price with a good beer selection, this is a good work lunch staple. It gets pretty busy during the end-of-week lunchtimes so arrive early (pre 12.15pm) to avoid queuing. The service and food execution is consistently good. I would recommend the Chilli burger with extra crispy onions as a textural treat! read more

Delicious! i had the cheeseburger- you can pick what kind of cheese you want so I chose American. A local told me they tend to cook the meat a little rarer so I had it as medium (if you don't say anything, it will be default medium). Added on some zucchini fries (it was called something else in the menu, I forgot what it was) and BAM! You have an amazing meal. The zucchini fries were so good that everyone could not resist stealing some. read more

Great burgers, decent service, pretty good price. That just about sums up Byron. They'd get the 5th star if they offered more variety the way they do in Gourmet Burger Kitchen but they do a great burger and if that's all you are after it's the only place you need to go :) read more

We were excited to find Byron burger at Canary Wharf just as the kids were starting to get antsy. The service was friendly & efficient. They brought some crayons out for the kids & we were all happy to sit & rest for a bit. I got a Byron burger & it was fine. My husband got the cheeseburger & he was a little disappointed with his burger. The kids did not enjoy the burgers. We broke them down & the ate the bun and tomato but did not like the patty. So my husband tried it and said he was not surprised as it tasted like cardboard. I think the problem is that they were overcooked...probably as most people worry about too much blood on the plate. Oh well we know for next time. Stick to the pasta for kids and make our burgers rare. read more

Good food, good service. You can't go wrong with this branch of byron. I love byron coming up with a new burger almost every month :)

Freddar Dawg, the latest special was a real beastly hot dog affair, it was pretty much meat patty in a hot dog roll with a good amount of American mustard and chopped onions. Not as good as the other two but still a very decent burger, to sum it up, Byron doesn't do a bad burger, the level is very consistent and very accessible to make it a very tempting choice whenever you need a good burger. read more

Good honest food, great value for money and always consistent. I highly recommend the Oreo milkshakes.

Good burger as always but the skin on chips were pretty much chunky chips way too big compared to the usual ones we all love and just not good at all. We asked why and the waiter said that they're going to bigger from now on! Why???? Other then that great as always read more

Good burgers. Nothing special. Was challenged by the ad on the door. "Proper burgers", come up just average burger.

We recently came for a second visit and again had an amazing time. The service is outstanding and the food amazing. We love our burgers and have visited a lot of other places but so far nothing beats Byron. Both Cabot place and Byron One new change offered us fresh, juicy burgers, hot chips and extra chilled beer. The service at both restaurants is dynamic, very friendly and efficient. Definitely will return again for more. read more

I've been told by work colleague that Bryon serves a great hamburger. It is always busy so I assume it must be true. I stopped by a Sunday as the place was about a third full, settled in and the service was very nice. So far so good. I ordered the Bryon, medium and waited. The burger came and after my first bite knew it was too rare for me. It was exactly raw in the middle. I sent it back with no problem and waited for my medium well burger. What I got back was a hockey puck with no flavor at all. To be honest I didn't taste any flavor in the medium cooked burger either. The burgers are thin and you get more lettuce, tomatoes and onion than burger. GBK Is a much better chain. So I don't know what all the fuss is about Bryons but I'm not a fan. read more

The service is really poor, often if you ask for a hamburger well done it will come burned, that is not good at all. Last week I went on a Saturday night with a group of friends and at 21:00 the kitchen was close already. Extremely disappointed when every other restaurant around Canary Wharf at least close at 22:00 on a Saturday night. Bad business strategy. I am wondering who is the master mind behind this decision. The haven't got a clue what customer service means , if they pride themselves for the classic American Dinner, they have a long long way to go before they can be can be compare to an "AMERICAN" customer service style. I gave them one star of rating and I was very generous. read more
