12 Bridge St, Cambridge CB2 1UF, United Kingdom
We are a premium burger chain serving PROPER BURGERS! We have a range of beef, chicken and plant-based burgers to enjoy. With a large variety of fries, sides and of course craft beers and milkshakes Byron is a great place to visit for any occasion.
Came to the restaurant and was thrilled with the food. But, the service impressed me most, particularly Mario who was very helpful in getting us to choose the right burger for us. Would highly recommend.
The food was lovely; the chicken burger is literally the best I’ve had. I had the cluck. The waiters are super helpful, especially Marco. We’ve been here a couple of times and he’s always greeted us with a smile and a cheerful manner. A*** service and I would recommend going to this restaurant.
Lovely staff. Very good service and the food was overall good. Bit different to normal burger but that's probably a good thing. Definitely recommend a visit. I left a photo of my crazy daughter who fancied all the waiter's 🤣 Would 1000% return.
Ordered Deliveroo totally inedible. Beyond burnt. All the chicken went in the bin. Contacted Deliveroo they said they would come back to us! Called the restaurant in Cambridge goes to BT call minder. No dinner tonight for kids thank you Byron’s!!!
Small Portions The portions are very small. I think it's the smallest among all of the Cambridge burger restaurants. The burger meat is very lean. Both the burgers and sides were not as hot as ED Diner and Smokeworks. Just slightly hotter than Honest Burgers. The price is not cheap in terms of potion size. The portions are so small that male adults may still be hungry afterwards. The restaurant was busy, but the environment and the toilets are still clean and tidy. The staff did a good job in maintaining the environment, even though during the rush hour of weekend. If you are lean meat lovers or weight cautious, this restaurant will tick all of your boxes.
American diner style eatery. Top quality hamburger with tasty relish and a good bunch of guys on service. Clean and well kept - QR table order or the staff will take it manually if preferred - price point a touch high but worth it 👌
Hanging out at Byron on a hot Cambridge day was perfect. The peach iced tea and chocolate sundae were just what we needed. The staff were really friendly and even suggested getting the sundae extra icy after the main – which was a great call! We customized our burgers too, which was fun. Definitely a spot we’ll return to."
We came here for lunch on a Tuesday with what appeared to be plenty of space inside and ended up waiting for 35 mins before food decided to turn up. Food was ok, but came across as McDonald's tier and Deliveroo orders seemed to take priority. We chose this place partly because we had kids and thought we knew what to expect, but I wouldn't recommend going to this branch if you have any hard stops on time, or children.
Great food and great service from Mario
Mario was a lovely server and made us feel welcome and looked after us well. Would absolutely come again!! :)
Nice food on a proper enviroment! The best are the service, very well done by Mario!
Another fantastic meal at Byron s, cheesemas was great this year but the gingerbread shake was next level, stunning!! Great, friendly service by Mario too.

Great service - outstanding care taken with food allergies. Tasty food and relaxed, festive atmosphere! Thanks Mark! Dietary restrictions: They have a comprehensive list of allergens and individual waiters have ingredients lists that you can check. Excellent service.
Great vegan and gluten free options! I get the lunchtime deal regularly and it s the only place I ve found in Cambridge with a vegan milkshake Vegetarian options: Loads of options Dietary restrictions: Lots of veggie and vegan options. Gluten free buns available. Staff were very knowledgable about dietary restrictions e.g. told me that the mustard on the table had barley so was not GF but the one they used in the burger was safe for me
Great food, friendly service and relaxing atmosphere.
As a regular visitor I find the service and food quality is always consistently high.
Great food, great customer service. Mario was super nice
Food was great and Mario was a fantastic waiter :) thank you!
With Byron u never fail! I highly Recommend everyone for a good burger in town.
Mario was a great server - thanks for a lovely time and a tasty burger!
Everything was fantastic and the staff are fantastic especially Mario
Our waiter, Mario, was great!
Jaimin was awesome fully recommend
Honest. Average burger. Expensive as in all of London. Pedantic service, they always ask you if you want something else to drink even while you eat.
The food is very good. The atmosphere is very pleasant, and the waiters are very kind and friendly. Kid-friendliness: Childrens menu.

very pleasant not too busy food was great!
Good burgers. Very accommodating of food intolerances. Mario remembered us from a few months ago and made us feel very welcome
Over rated, just like most places these days Really small burgers could fit in palm of hand hahaha for £16 !! Nice taste but not worth the money that s nearly 2 hours of work for some people. And Only a Handful of chips which don t come with burger for an extra £3.60 Over £40 Just sad everywhere now about the money and not the quality
Mario was brilliant very friendly and helpful. Good food, nice atmosphere
Very enjoyable food and thanks to Mario for his excellent service. Vegetarian options: NA Food : 5/5 |
When we visit Cambridge we always eat at Byrons. The service is good especially now that we dont have to order on the App. Food always arrives promptly and the burgers are the best around. If youve never visited Byrons in Cambridge I recommend you do so next time your there. You wont be disappointed
Tasty food, generous portions and cater very well for dairy free like me!
Mario is the best! Xxx
Excellent service and great Burgers a must try when visiting Cambridge
Great and attentive service from Mario
Great service and the guys working there are very friendly
cool
The burgers are good, and milkshakes are top tier, but sometimes I don t want to fork out for a milkshake in my meal deal and it s really frustrating that they only have Sprite ZERO instead of normal Sprite.. I end up just not ordering and eating elsewhere because of it
Mario is the best! Kid-friendliness: It is great fun! Food : 5/5 |
Vegetarian options: Veggie burger is really good and always has been Food
Food good; our favourite aspect of this place is service from Mario - see you again soon!
First time at Byron in Cambridge and it won t be my last! The burger was excellent perfectly cooked and so flavourful. A big shoutout to Mario, the waiter, who was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Made the whole experience. Highly recommend!
I was served by Mario and he was really nice and a brilliant waiter and person all round. Great place.
Great food with charming staff. Child friendly and excellent environment. Will definitely come back!
On visiting Cambridge. We accide try stumbled upon Byrons restaurant. We found the service amazing. The food is second to none and I highly recommend that if you are ever in the area try this place out Food : 5/5
Exceptional food and service. Decent value too. Love it here
I am writing this review to praise our service by Mario, excellent recommendations that lead to a great meal and enjoyable experience
Mario is the best waiter! The food was amazing! I will go back again!
I got served by the great Mario. Thanks to his recommendation I did enjoy even more the food!
Good service and attention, especially a staff called Mario
They keep forgetting the chips and don t pack with any insulation so it usually arrives cold. I d suggest not getting it delivered from here.
Vegetarian options: Can make any burger vegan Food
Really good service and the staff was really kind, especially Mario! Food was also really good and the restaurant was really nice.
Burgers and fries were super good. If you want to order chicken wings then I would advise against the Byron sauce. I personally didnt like it. But everyone has to see it differently. Service was very good. They come up to you a few times and ask if you want anything else. The atmosphere was also really good. Very nicely decorated and very comfortable seats. Vegetarian options: No idea. I just wanted to eat something that had meat in it
Twas class, Ritchie should get a rise
If you re craving a burger that goes beyond the basics, Byron is where you want to be. This spot doesn t just serve burgers it celebrates them. From the moment you walk in, the smell of sizzling patties and fresh-cut fries pulls you in, and the relaxed vibe makes you feel right at home. I ordered the Classic Cheeseburger with a side of their house fries and tots, and it did not disappoint. The beef patty was perfectly juicy, and cooked with just the right amount of char. The bun was soft yet held up well, even with all the toppings a true test of a quality burger. The toppings were fresh, with crisp lettuce, thick-cut tomato, and a tangy house sauce that elevated the whole experience.
Very good burger. Mario, our server, was very nice and attentive.
Mario was very friendly, great service as always
The most beautiful burgers. Friendly staff. Mario was awesome. Thanks
Very good food and service from services. Mario is no1 because we get very good service Will come here again best Byron burgers
A lovely evening. Our coeliac family member so well looked after. Mario was so helpful and great fun. Great service!
Mario is a legend
Great food, lovely service (Mario is amazing!)
Fantastic food, great veggie options, and wonderful service from Mario! can t wait to come back! Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie options!
Served by a lovely man called Mario and had great macaroni cheese! Food was very good and great environment Vegetarian options: Really good veggie options and can make most burgers and milkshakes vegan when requested!
Cheers Mario for being a quality waiter. Good food and a nice and quiet lunch and dinner spot

Very spécial Thanks to Mario from Sicilia !!
Excellent Vegetarian options: Excellent Food : 5/5 |
Beautiful place, the burger are real, nice and juicy worth the money you spent.
Still banging out a great burger. I miss the specials yet they still deliver the classics very well. The milkshakes are the bomb. My girls adrore the Mac n Cheese - you can share one between two with some fries and a shake.
The food was great and the service from Mario was excellent. A little lacking in atmosphere as it was early and mid-week, so it was quiet, I m sure it would improve at busier times. We would certainly go again.
Great burgers and the wings are spicy
Came in for lunch - Lovely food and Richie was both incredibly friendly and helpful!
Plate licking good! been back. Consitent as last time. Vegetarian options: The whole menu can be Vegan or Vegeterian! Food : 5/5 |
Great food, Great service from our server Richie, definitely coming again :)
Food is yummy and filling, cost-effective, and right in the heart of Cambridge.
Food was excellent and the service was brilliant. Thank you Richie
Richie was our primary server and he was very helpful explaining menu choices. He make sure to enquire whether our party had any allergies, with assurance that they would be accommodated for. The food was delicious and the chicken burger is more than generous in terms of portion size!! Would recommend.
Good, Richie was a fantastic server
Wheelchair accessibility: Perfect Food
The staff were very helpful and a credit to Byron s, our waiter could not be more helpful, they make the difference and we will definitely be back
Byron will never be disappointing I used to come here every Friday from college back in 2010-2011 even just for an Oreo cheesecake Food is great Staff has always been awesome Coming back here for smash burgers was nostalgic 10/10
Tasty burger
Lovely food very tasty
Very friendly staff, quick service and great food
Chosen by chance as we passed by. Friendly staff. The burgers were delicious, as were the French fries. We were served quickly & didn t have to wait long for our order to appear. Definitely a good place to stop for a quick lunch.
Mario was very kind and good at advising us what to order and welcoming us.
Perfect service and very good service. Very nice and attentive staff
Ate my burger with moderate speed ( 2 min) very good.Mario
Really enjoyed the food - better than expected! Our waiter Mario was incredibly helpful and kind.
I recently had a meal at a Byron where the service and food stood out. Mario, our server, was friendly and attentive, making our dining experience comfortable. The food was tasty, with a nice variety of flavors that appealed to our group. Everything was well-prepared and satisfying. Overall, we had a good time and would recommend checking it out, especially if you want decent service and enjoyable food.
Love their burgers ... Nice staff too
Served by Mario in Cambridge, would recommend!
Very nice place and very well located. Superb food and superb waiter Mario.
Mario was very cool! Cheers
Amazing food, amazing service, always love eating here.
Thanks Mario!
We wanted a snack and we were tempted by the offer of buy one burger and get a second free. The food was great and the service was fine. However i was surprised to be charged a service charge. This is 10% but this was 10% before the cost of the free burger was taken off the price, so in reality the service charge is 15% of the bill. Technically it is discretionary but they add this charge to the bill first and then you have to ask for it to taken off the bill. This is cheeky!! For that reason in the future i will go elsewhere.
Excellent food! Superb place - well worth a burger at this place!
Mario was very good
The burger is not very big, but tastes pretty good.
Amazing service and looked after us well. Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free Food : 5/5 |
Great place to dine. To me, it s the best burger place in Cambridge. And the stuff are very nice, too. Mario is a very professional waiter and an extremely friendly person. Sincerely recommend the place! Food : 5/5
The smallest double hamburger on earth. I do not recommend.
Mario is the best
Fantastic burger and insanely good brownie for dessert... Possibly the best I have ever tasted! Mario was our waiter and he was extra friendly and equally as funny and his recommendations were spot on!!!
Mario was great!
The Dirty Byron was outstanding! I coupled it with some excellent sweet potato fires for a perfectly portioned and fully delicious lunch. My server, Mario (from Sicily) was outstanding. The environment was comfortable, the service top-notch, the food delivered quickly and hot. They also ask about any allergies before you order so there are no surprises. All around, excellent, and very near Cambridge University.
Clean and modern with comfortable booths, a good range of burgers on the menu with a decent alcohol selection. Staff was friendly and helpful, the food was good but can be a bit overcomplicated so some of the flavours get lost, but overall decent place to get some lunch or dinner. Wheelchair accessibility: There is one wheelchair accesable toilet on the ground floor towards the kitchen. The door to the restaurant itself is quite heavy and narrow so would need help opening both.
Best burgers în town
Really nice burger and outstanding onion rings. Will definitely be back
Very friendly site
Such a shame. The burger quality has dropped massively. We have been coming here for 8 years now and always looked forward to the burgers. This time, we did not like it at all. When ordering, the waiter didnt ask how we want the meat cooked which is an indication that the meat might be frozen. When we mentioned it, he said they changed provider and the provider recommends cooking the burgers to well done. When the burger arrived, it was the saddest plate I have seen in a long time. They did not just change meat provider, they also changed the bun. It was horrible. I am sorry to say, but the burger is not edible. We chose the cheese burger.
We used to visit here every time we were in Cambridge because the medium cooked burgers were so good. Theyve changed recently and all burgers come out well done - no choice anymore. Not sure if theyve been made to do that for some reason but its just not the same. Byron - if you have any control over this, please go back to the old burgers!
Very good, kids really enjoyed - clean plates all round!! Kid-friendliness: Great with the kids Food : 5/5 |
Filthy bathrooms (male & female). Dirty nappies on the floor, treacherous disgusting greasy floors between restaurant & bathroom. No wonder they make you pay in advance when you order. Empty restaurant & we waited 30 minutes for our food. And what was delivered was less than mediocre. Used to be a reasonable place. Now truly awful. Have many times enjoyed Byron as reliable but after this experience will never go there again.
Thank you for your fantastic service & hospitality
Delicious
Nice burgers. Nice salad. Sweet potato fries were warm. Problem with service is we had to pay before we had the food. 12.5% service charge was added - before we had really experienced it. I think that is unethical. Also - had the vegan burger. It was smaller than the normal burger - and cost £1 more. @Byron please explain these two unethical practices!
The vegan chicken burger is really good. During lunch they have a good deal with main and a side. Vegetarian options: Not many options, but high quality vegan burgers.
Nice Burger Place, but whatever u do do not give your mail in the online form, they spam you for whatever reason.
Amazing staff and desert
Great place! Incredibly delicious burgers! Wonderful staff, great service! Not a bad draft pilsner. Located in the very center of Cambridge. I highly recommend it!!
Great food great staff
Normally been a Byron fan but the food was very average, and the wait time was very long. Staff weren t particularly helpful and seemed grumpy. Left feeling disappointed and annoyed. Kid-friendliness: Has a kids menus, colouring sheets offered and highchair offered
Great food and very nice staff
Ordering through the app takes too long.
Ordered the cheeseburger - simple but one of the best burgers I ve ever had. Just the perfect amount of mustard, ketchup, cheese. Would definitely go again.
We as older diners (67 years old) struggled with the food ordered system (QR code). But your waiter was very helpful, and helped loads.
I really love the burgers here! An amazing selection for veggie/vegans . Really spoilt for choice! We ordered for delivery to our hotel and it came in decent time and was hot and tasted amazing. Easily the best veggie burgers Ive had to date Vegetarian options: Its nice to be excited to look at a menu for a burger chaine when you are veggie/vegan . Usually, theres a choice of 1 or 2 burgers if you are lucky. Byron has multiple choices
The food is good. Sadly, more often than not, they forget to put it all in the bag and items are missing, so you won t get to try the food anyway.
On a hot day this is one of the most soothing dining experiences in Cambridge. The burgers are nothing but perfection, and when coupled with a sundae, it is magnificent.
Always great burgers when we come through !
Great burgers! My kid loved that he could create his own. Fast serving and super nice location.
Best burgers ever!!
After 40 l
Good luck for this burger restaurant in Cambridge. The lunch menu is really a good deal! Pleasant service.
Everething was excelllent.
Great burgers, a little let down on the sides. Service was great.
Basic hamburger, but very good fries.
Absolutely delicious burger and sweet potato fries. The burger was made with incredibly good meat. Their customization options made ordering easy for someone with dietary restrictions. Dietary restrictions: The waiter asked about my restrictions and confirmed that they were medical, not preference. He confirmed what I could eat safely on the menu. My only slight critique is that I got my burger without a bun, and the side salad they served instead had dressing on it that almost certainly had my major trigger garlic in the dressing. I just didnt eat it and it was fine, but since the staff was scrupulous about asking, it seemed weird that they didnt follow up on the sides.
The beef burger is delicious and the sweet and regular potatoes are delicious And the service is wonderful
Very average burgers and chicken burgers, underseasoned and greasy. The smash burger patties were just two half sized patties, a bit limp and tasteless rather than smashed thin and grilled. The onion rings drowned in oil in their dish. We paid over £50 for two burgers, fries, onion rings and 2 drinks, which felt pretty steep for the quality. There are many better burger places around Cambridge so seek those out instead.
Average expensive burgers
One of the best burgers I ever had
We really enjoy coming here, especially with my allergies as they are so well catered for (dairy and gluten and meat free). The service tends to ask for you to order on your phone, which means you can pay there and then and usually it doesn t take long for food to come out. We have had it however in certain spots of the restaurant where we needed to connect to WiFi as there was no service. This was then very slow and difficult to order with. Nonetheless, the staff are very kind and helpful. In regards to the atmosphere, it is nice and got a nice vibe. Nothing too special but definitely nothing negative about it. As I mentioned, the food is unreal. It s amazing for non-allergy people who like beef and chicken, but also very good for allergy people with vegan options or grilled chicken options for my gluten free peeps and all sorts. I would recommend. Vegetarian options: There are vegan and vegetarian options which is great. However, if you have multiple allergies such as myself (gluten and dairy) then I am limited to two burgers: the classic; the spicy. I enjoy both so no problems there. They also have loads of vegan milkshakes which is my number 1 reason for coming here over other burger places. Dietary restrictions: I am allergic to dairy and gluten and do not eat meat. There are two options for my burgers with these restrictions; both of which I enjoy very much. There are loads of milkshake options which are gorgeous, including a no nut peanut shake which is unreal! I can have the hash brown bite things and most of the other sides are available to me too. They are very good at letting you know what condiments you can have and they even have vegan mayo too. I would recommend to my fellow allergy peeps.
Nothing too exciting. Burgers were OK but there are better options to choose from
Solid burgers, wings, and milkshakes. Good service. We had a great lunch.
Delicious burgers
Great burgers!
Its Ok. Staff seems to be exhausted, QR code doesnt work and so on... But in general food was nice
Great food a welcoming staff
Great burgers
Great e perience, excellent food and staff. Kid-friendliness: There were facilities adapted to children. Food : 5/5 |
It was good. Waited for food a bit longer,but it was great.
Our burgers were delicious. The sauces were unique and really added something extra to the already good burgers. The onion rings were good; they just needed to be cooked a tad longer.
Difficult to pay and order. Rude staff. Difficult experience. Expensive. Below average burger. Overcooked
distinct
Previously a good experience this time around far less family friendly. Seems our waiter did not like children and made it a point to be rude to my son, very disturbing to see a grown man showing such irritation towards a 9 year old child. We were sat just a meter from their counter where 3 waiters were having an inappropriate conversation and laughing very loudly. We chose to visit again as my son remembered a great birthday meal here however this time around we only looked forward to paying the bill and leaving.
Genuinely such little care from the staff, all they did was chat and spend time on their phones, and get orders wrong. I heard them arguing several times about it. We waited so long for someone to take our order, we eventually used the app, only just before clicking order the waitress came over. Total 45 minute wait for food. A lot of food was sat on the pass while the waitress was chatting to her friends, kitchen staff ended up taking food to tables because she was preoccupied. I ll just add, the restaurant wasn t busy at all - another couple even tried to order and the waitress told them to wait, they ended up walking out! Although the burger was nice, we won t be returning.
Good food close to the center, for families and others, even relatively cheap, I recommend it
Great food, fantastic staff
After a punt on the river took a punt on Byrons proper burgers. I have to say i have been and ate a lot of burgers and this rated in my top 3. I had Byron my partner had a classic chicken. The only thing missing was a line outside. I highly recommend
Parking: There is no parking as its in the city centre. Kid-friendliness: A good place for kids to eat. Food : 5/5 |
Me and my husband love burgers and Byron didnt disappoint, we went for lunch during the week. I ordered the lunch cheeseburger which came with a soft drink and fries. Husband ordered a double bacon cheese burger from the Proper burgers part of the menu and his drink and fries separately. In addition I ordered a portion of onion rings which were crispy and had a lovely crunch to them. And buffalo wings with ranch dipping sauce, these were nice too. Started eating before the wings arrived, that s why they weren t included in the photo lol! Everyone who served us on the day were super, ordering food was straight forward. All we had to do was scan the QR code order our food on the website and everything worked perfectly. Tasty food and good vibes, will go again for an occasion only though. Couldnt afford it on every outing lol!
The food was average quality but approximately 50% more than comparable alternative restaurants.
Vegetarian options: Great veggie options; most burgers can be easily changed for vegan alternatives. Also swapping to a gf bun is fine. Amazing service too. Food
Not cheap but quite possibly one of the nicest burgers Ive ever had. Friendly service, clean, and prompt. It didnt look like a £25 meal but was so good. I was genuinely sorry it was over. I may visit again tomorrow
great tasting burger, just the right size. Also, salad was better than expected. Looking forward to returning.
Great food and service
Great food!
Dietary restrictions: Very impressive Gluten Free menu Food
Great place for vega burgers, excellent service, good food portion size and reasonable price
