4 Wheeler St, Cambridge CB2 3QB, United Kingdom
Simple, laid-back setting for counter-serve burgers with inventive ingredient combos & brioche buns.
Unsurpassed burger joint in the heart of Cambridge town centre. Great selection of beers, lunchtime deal available. We sampled their double cheeseburger which almost had us defeated. These guys know what they are doing. 5*
Sid viscous. Double dirty drippy spicy funky my fingers were a sticky mess. Super shoe string fries were ace too. This is a FIVE STAR burger. Thank you.
By far the best burgers in Cambridge!!! The milk bun is soft and delicious. The patty’s are so tasty and the bacon tastes like maple syrup. Everything about this place is fantastic - 10/10 recommend
My recent visit left me with mixed feelings. While the service was quick and efficient, the overall experience wasn’t the best, since I went in with high expectations based on the reviews posted online! The highlight of the meal was the crispy fries. However, the burger itself wasn’t that tasty. The patty was noticeably overcooked and dry, lacking the juicy tenderness that one would expect from a quality burger. The cleanliness of the tables were a bit off-putting. We noticed crumbs and stains scattered across the surfaces.
Hands down the best burger in Cambridge (and perhaps in the U.K.). I learned about this burger joint through a delivery app called “Foodstuff,” which only works and partners with local restaurants (no chains). As it turned out, this restaurant is located right at the city centre of Cambridge, very close to my work. I am from Latin America and my journey for a decent burger in the city had been largely unsuccessful (and disappointing). After trying several pubs and burger chains, I could simply not find a single one that offered the bare minimum: a tasty and juicy burger patty cooked perfectly (medium or medium-rare). I was on the verge of giving up on burgers for good when I found Steak & Honour. This restaurant made me a believer again. It is certainly the best burger I had in Cambridge (and, I dare to say, in the country) and is totally worth a visit. My only criticism is that the fries were too salty. Other than that, everything was perfect! Please note that seating is available upstairs.
I was a loyal customer of this place when they first opened and made a beeline back here after having lived abroad for the last few years. The quality and flavor of the locally sourced beef is really quite amazing, and I was pleased to find that it hasn’t changed a bit. I really appreciate the attention to detail with different flavors and ingredients. Also, they have a really great beer selection! Enjoy!!
Came here for dinner. The guy who served us was really helpful in making a decision. The meat and ingredients seemed to be really good in quality. I had the “Some Like It Hot” with the homemade jalapeño sauce. It was really good. The sauce was a bit too strong and inky left little space for the meat and cheese flavours. Fries really nice! The “one for ella” burger wAs more of my taste and I really like it. A lot simpler, but also quite balanced. The sauce was delicious. Good selection of craft beers and 3 floors to dine in. Good stop! Reasonable price and quick service. Also good music selection is always a plus!
✓ Vegetarian & Vegan Options WHAT WE HAD: One for Ella [£10] – Brioche bun, Beef patty, smoked bacon, American cheese, lettuce, onion, gherkin and burger sauce; Check the Pulse (Vegetarian) [£10] – Brioche Bun, Bean Burger, Beetroot Pickle, Onion, lettuce and sauces; Sweet Potato Fries [£4] The last time I had Steak and Honour was years ago when they only sold out of their food truck. Back then, I loved their beef burgers in brioche bun. So simple but juicy and flavourful, just no nonsense beef burgers done right with quality ingredients. Last December was my first visit to their store. I am Vegan now but I went there as I was with my mum. She enjoyed the One for Ella (Beef Burger) but wasn’t impressed by it. So, I can’t make a fair assessment whether there is a difference in quality. The Check the Pulse Veggie Burger I had was just ok. Not the best bean patty I had (and was quite thin to me), but overall flavourful and I liked the beetroot pickle. There is two more floors of seating upstairs so shouldn’t be a problem getting a table. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The place was generally kept tidy and clean, with a bright atmosphere.
Ordered a takeaway, went for the classic burger was very dissapointed. I remember when steak & honour first launched, there burgers were really game changers. This was really dry and rubbery, so much lettuce and gerkins in the burger like overload. I prefer honest burgers, the balance of flavours is much better balanced. I felt like I had a salad burger today
The absolute best burger weve ever had. Do one thing right......my god theyve got this spot on! Fantastic
The cheeseburger was great
10/10 Burgers! The Chicken is Next Level Freshly coated before cooking serious stuff The team are super friendly!
Great experience & way better than the other burger places around the corner. We ordered one burger to split and they gave us double the chips portion. Burger was elite. 10/10
Let down today by not only the burger but the customer service. I had the van local near my house so decided to treat my wife to dinner off. My burger was the Oklahoma. It came with special sauce. Thinking it was like a house sauce I had no idea it was firey hot and was very disappointed it had no mention it was spicy/hot. I went back to thr van having spent 14 quid on the burger it was a complete waste of money all I could taste was chilli! The guys response was oh its always been like that (ref to the sauce). Oh well better luck next time. Im Disgusted.
They make excellent sandwiches here, the price is a little high but its worth it and you leave satisfied. The fries are also great. The service is very fast. They also offer a wide selection of beers, not the usual brands but . more particular brands. The only flaw is that the place is small and has few tables
My partner an I had cheeseburgers and we were actually disappointed. The meat was blunt and dry and wasn t tasty. Prices were reasonable. Nevertheless, I wouldn t recommend.
Had a very nice double for Ellie burger. Sadly they had no mushrooms in at the time, which would have made it perfect. I do recommend telling them, how you want your burger done, as some like it a bit juicier or more done.
BEST BURGER EVER! Amazing gluten free bun too!!!! Highly recommend
This review is for their food truck, not the restaurant. Went to one of their pop-up vans and I can confidently say for 37 quid I can make much much better food. The fries were cold, the bacon an overdone sheet that didnt even snap because the burger was so wet. The spicy sauce had less spice than a bell pepper. The burgers were juicy but so hard to chew with no flavour Go out, buy your own steak, veg and potatoes and anyone with even a moducum of kitchen skill can make better
Best burgers in Cambridge
Absolutely mind blowing burgers.
Decent burgers. The staff is super pleasant and the burgers are tasty apart from the excessive amount of sauce in them that makes them soggy.
Simply the BEST. Order for 3 and food was ready in minutes. Some of the best service and great staff! Would definitely come again! Thanks, Kid-friendliness: Kids really enjoyed it.
Excellent burgers and huge portions.
Had Steak & Honour at the Three Horse Shoes in Comberton last night. Can only say one of the best Burgers I have ever tasted, absolutely amazing. So juicy you needed the chips to mop everything up. Brilliant! Will definitely be there the next time it s at the pub.
Is it halal?
Simply the best burger i have ever had! Superb
Words cannot describe how good this (spicy as anything) chicken sandwich is. Bravo, yall. Seven stars!
These burgers are NEXT LEVEL. I have had probably 20+ burgers from Steak & Honour over the past few years, and every single one has been nothing less than a 10/10 burger. Whether its from the van or from the restaurant, these burgers are utterly divine. I am yet to find a burger in the UK thats tastier.
Best burger I have ever had
Tasty food and friendly staff!!
Wow, where do I even begin with Steak and Honour? I have to say, this is hands down the best burger I have ever had in the UK. The juicy, smashed patties are just out of this world, they melted in my mouth with every bite. Although its on the pricier side, I have to say its worth every penny. The milk bun was a work of art, it held everything together perfectly and added to the overall deliciousness of the burger. I would highly recommend a visit to Steak and Honour if youre in the area, you wont regret it!
Easily one of the best burgers in Cambridge. Differentiates itself from the other top players by being less restauranty. Service is friendly and quick. Food excellent, good selection of beers.
Unfortunately S&H are no longer the king of burgers. Some like it hot, used to leave your lips tingling, now its not even spicy. Pattys used to be hand pressed, now are pre formed. They no longer have the best chicken burger, flipping the bird. Dont get me wrong, they are still good, and offer very good food! Its just they are not what they once were. And thats a shame.
First and foremost the portion sizes are humongous! The restaurant entrance is tucked up off to the side and runs across 3 floors. We sat downstairs which meant we could smell/watch the guys cooking our lunch. I do feel it didnt feel that cosy downstairs l, but the other floors felt more inviting. The burgers were juicy and absolutely loaded with toppings. Give it a go!
Excellent food stylish burgers incresibly tasty. Great for a burger when you want more than processed food.
The burgers are good but costs have been rising to the point where I no longer order takeout here. Almost £15 for a burger once you account for service/delivery fees, and thats without sides.
Ate from food truck at Pastore and everything was extremely salty. I tried to eat half a burger because it looks tasty but it is impossible to finish. Had to pat fries on a napkin to get rid of some of the salt. Not worth the price. I would not recommend.
Amazing burger and I love their buns. The patty and juicy and the fries are a great compliment with the burger.
Only 4 stars for atmosphere as hot and no air con inside. Otherwise very very tasty.
Weird opening times. Check before you go Delish tho Recommended dishes
The best burger in the UK by far!! Absolute love this place. Staff were amazing!! A MUST TRY!!
The beef is perfectly cooked, its really juicy, the fries are amazingly salted and drinks are very refreshing and delicious. New JMAKIN ME Hot is awesome Food
Sadly a shadow of its former self. Visited today and the burger patties are now pre formed and were overcooked and dry. The juicy, crumbly, perfectly seasoned and flavourful beef is a thing of the past. The texture was more like boiled beef and sadly I have to say the steak in steak and honour is what let the meal down. Ive been an avid fan from the first days of the van, through pop ups in Pint Shop and Novi. I was there for collaborations with other Cambridge food institutions and this is not the same steak and honour. For the first time ever, I have to say, if you want a burger that is closer in quality to the old days, go to Honest Burger.
Both chefs are friendly and smiley but the burger is horrid; brioche buns are chewy and too buttery, patty is burnt, over cooked , smelly(smell like cheap and old meat from ICELAND), condiments are soggy and veggies are not fresh. The burger was binned right away, £8.5 quids are down to the drain. No wonder why there queue at FoodPark is the shortest. Sigh Will have to stick with Honest
This place is good. Has a few food trucks that pop up in different places. The only reason why I have marked it down is that the burger buns are SO soggy. I think they must freeze them because they always feel and taste a bit wet! The burgers themselves are great. I can t really comment on the atmosphere as it s not a sit down. restaurant.
Excellent burger. Very friendly staff. Top notch music.
Dined in a year ago at Tivoli Cambridge where they re based and was blown away by how tasty the food is. Then today spotted their food truck in Fordham and could not resist (don t know why I left it a whole year to go back.) Anyway what my food photography skills lack, the food more than makes up for. In my top 10 burgers and I ve had some amazing burgers in the uk, usa, and Dubai. Absolutely top place.
Never fails to disappoint. Top notch burgers, cooked just right. The Mac & Cheese side is worth trying. Also have a good range of meat-free options, and great stock of craft beers (incl low/no alcohol)
No food purchased. Just beer from the window display. Check prices carefully before buying as the prices are not displayed but while the beer is lovely, its not worth the prices charged.
Love this place, absolutely must if you are in Cambridge. Locally sourced ingredients and you can tell. Fantastic staff and great atmosphere.
Sid vicious burger is delicious. If youre not covered in sauce after a burger you must be an npc
I have loved the burgers from Steak and Honour since I first came across them prior to a gig at the Corn Exchange. Ive since visited the restaurant several times and also the food vans. The quality of the food is always excellent and they are good value for money.
The burger wasnt very good and the bacon was burnt so much that it was black and falling apart.
Me and my family all had the Ella burger with fries and slaw from the van, was so yummy didn t disappoint.
Definitely my favourite burger in Cambridge. Whether from the shop or a van, they are fine quality and very consistent. Have recently discovered upstairs seating areas where you can eat your food in the warm and dry.
Really well made burgers. 120g is the perfect size. Only wish we could ve tried their chicken burgers on the day, but they were out of chicken. Service was excellent. Enjoyable experience.
Best burgers in Cambridge!! They also do gluten free buns which are delicious and their fries are fantastic too.
Sorry but the service was severely lacking. I had to go and find my food after waiting for quite a while, no mention of not bringing food up to the table when I ordered. No thank you or anything when we left, the staff were too busy eating ice creams. These are expensive burgers, I expected more. Probably wont bother going back.
Delicious burger and sauces
Got a burger today at the RAF mildenhall food truck thing today and it was a sopping wet mess, both buns were disgustingly wet, falling apart and I couldnt eat it without an entire roll of paper towels beside me. Ate half and quit. Will not be back. The cooks need to learn how to cook neatly.
Still the best burger in Cambridge and Im tempted to say the best plant based burger Ive had in Cambridge so far.
Consistently high level of presentation and quality of ingredients. The team running is absolutely phenomenal, speedy, attentive and informative. Really an absolute Gem that Cambridge holds here!
Best burger in Cambridge. If your a burger lover, go here. If your not, go here anyway - you ll be converted. Nothing else to be said - can t tell you to go enough.
Got two burgers, one almost raw and the other dripping grease (literally).
The burgers a very good. No two ways about it. Not quite the most consistent. Theyre supposed to be open 12-21 on Saturday, we arrived at 16.40 and the door was locked. This is not the first time we found them closed during working hours. They did let us in after 5 minutes of waiting around (group of 10). We almost left. The seating upstairs was no available and they didnt say why. Also no seating outside. They definitely need to improve on the customer service and professionalism part. It would be a shame for a place with such good burgers to go out of business for poor management.
Nice fries and burgers ! A small but comfy place overall.
By far THE best burger Ive had in the UK so far. The juicy smashed patties are to die for. Prices are fairly good, the bun is amazing. Only the available ingredients list is a bit small, but honestly I dont mind when the patties and the buns are that good. Definitely worth a visit!
Seriously the best burger Ive had (the rosemary chips were lush too) the service was fantastic would really recommend.
Best japanese restaurant in Cambridge
Words CANNOT describe how good this place is. I have previously had food from their vans, and that was top notch. But going in was even better. Meat was done to perfection. Chips little to salty but still really tasty, I love skin on fries I wish more places did this. The buns on the burgers were fluffy and had a beautiful taste and not too claggy Filled me up to the brim Needles to say will be going there again.
Rude and nonsense staff, Every time tell couple of minutes ride then 20 min, no food.. I know u guys busy, why u should say couple of min shame.... shame shame
Good burger accompanied by good service deserves five stars. Good portion of potatoes. Very clean place
Burgers & huge drink selection
OMG this is the burger place you have been looking for all your life. The burgers are soooo messy but amazing flavours that melt in the mouth. This is what a burger should taste like. if you want something you will be dreaming and dribbling over and worrying that youve eaten something so good it must be bad for you then THIS IS IT. There is another burger shop further down the road and the burgers there are okay too and a lot less messy but who wants that when you can have unbelievably tasty and drool till you die. If you are in doubt what to order get ONE FOR ELLA, its insane!!!!
These are the burgers around, hopefully the food truck will come back around to the pubs when they re-open!
Top class service, me and my sister order to collect from the van, and our order got sent through just before cut off time! And yet they were more than happy to stay and cook us the yummy burgers! Again thanks so much!!
Our first experience of Steak and Honour food tonight and am blown away. Amazing burgers, fab chips and excellent service. Will be a regular now. Thank you
¡OMVan! Love it . The guys on the van were super amazing letting us know how to order and making two amazing burgers.
The burgers are the best in town in my opinion but Im giving three stars because the van location stated in the website was not detailed enough that made us wonder for ages looking for the van. The location was Milton Country Park, but inside the park not the car park, which was not obvious and it was difficult to find, considering how many entrances the park has. Also there is no phone nr that you can call if you are having issues.
Amazing burgers!
Very nice and messy burgers, simple menu and great taste! Cant fault.
Ordered plant Michell, the taste is yummy. Will order again
Great. My 2nd visit - Id heard very good reports when they only had vans but have only got to this venue recently. Cheeseburger and fries - a 10 minute wait - very well worth it both times. Friendly staff and for my taste the best burger and fries Ive had for a long time, perhaps ever. I prefer this to GBK, Byron, Five Guys, Honest Burger and Butch Annies - which all have their undoubted merits too!
Amazing burgers. Looses 1 star for not being quite accessible
The burger was good. However I ordered a side of Mac and cheese only to be greeted with two slabs of congealed and burnt to a crisp pasta swimming in what I assume was cheese sauce, but looked to be just pure grease. So disappointed as of heard good things about this place. See the photo and judge for yourself!
Best burgers in town! In any town!
One for Ella is the way to go. Best burger i have had, ever!
Brilliant apart from having to chase them to open my bottle. Amazing burger. Messy, juicy, proper meaty, and delicious
Beef burgers are awesome, as always.
Great burgers.
Your search for the best burger finished at this place. Best burger ever!
Best burgers in Cambridge! From an American point of view. Have returned many times.
Mind blowing stuff - got the Mac and cheese and the hot one. My wife got Ella and she wasn t too impressed. The hot one is actually hot! So don t get it if you don t like spice but it was beautiful to me. The Mac and cheese was really good on a cold day as a side which we got instead of a fries. Really glad we went here instead of honest burgers down the road! Great find and please come to London soon!
Have only been here twice but both times have been a great experience. Both times I have had my vegan friend with me and he loves it too. Really tasty food and the perfect portion size. Highly recommended.
THE best burger in Cambridge, great upstairs room too for eating in and the staff are very friendly
Great burger and incredible mac n cheese. Would have been 5 but bun was a bit heavy and chewy.
Always love it here. They serve the most beautiful burgers and always with a smile.
Food is generally pretty good but messy and overpriced. We had a 25 percent off voucher and 2 burgers with 2 sides was still 21 pounds.
Hands down best burgers in Cambridge.
The best burgers in Cambridge! Theres so much flavour in whichever burger you choose
Really nice burger, if you like your nice brioche buns this place has got them. Quite pricey any days other than Monday to Thursday lunch time. The burgers were top notch but I would only go when you can get them for £5 for their lunch.
Have a hamburger the way you like it!
The burgers here are unreal. The best in fact. But the main event for me is always the mac and cheese, like no mac and cheese I ve ever eaten.
The burger was one of the best I have had.
Had the Sid Vicious (Riverside Beef, Buffalo Sauce & Blue Cheese) and coleslaw. The burger was very good and very messy. The slaw needed more salt and a kick of vinegar. Still, very satisfying meal.
Price is average and the burgers are alright
The most, an I mean this, outstanding, stunning and perfect burger and they even do phenomonal chips! What is this magic!!!
best burgers ever
Ordered the chicken burger, which was good but a bit small and sweet potato fries, which were a real disappointment. The fires were over fried with burned parts and a charcoal flavour. Not what I had in mind when ordering fries! Did someone forgot to take the time with the fires?
Best burgers in Cambridge...
Probably one of my favourite burger joints, first went 3 years ago and have been every time Ive been in Cambridge since, 100% would recommend.
Excellent except for the decorations
I never thought a chicken burger could be a life-changing event, but here we are.
Really cosy, the burgers are to die for though
Really nice independent burger place. I ready like the burgers but I do think, like most burger joints, it s super pricey for a burger and fries. Burgers are juicy and come in an imaginative range of choices. Surprisingly, the icing on the cake is the delicious chicken burger!
The burger wasnt cooked properly and it was very expensive. I wont go back when there are better places to go to.
Cracking burgers and great service. Was the Cambridge half marathon too so very busy, despite this it really was great. Beats five guys!
Tasty burgers and a lovely hoppy pale ale. A bit pricey but seemingly in keeping with other outlets close by. Need to be a bit speedier clearing and, especially, wiping down the tables.
Probably the best fries I have ever tasted, absolutely worth it. The burgers are classic, juicy, and greasy. Definitely good eating, but as with most things in Cambridge, on the pricey side. For the Classic burger and fries, youre looking at £11!
The food was delicious I had a spicy burger with beef brisket. It was bursting with flavour and juices just what I want out of my burger. Love the exterior decor. Most of the staff were smiling and very accommodating. Would recommend this burger place over other franchises in Cambridge.
Food is really good even though the place looks shady
Best burger in Cambridge! Steak & Honour has long been my favourite burger. The staff are really friendly and all have smiles on their faces. The menu is great and theyve added more choice over the time theyve been there. Its not a cheap burger but you get value for money with it. If you go to one burger place in Cambridge, go here
Best burgers around and well worth a visit or tracking down one of their mobile burger vans.
It was close
Fantastic burgers.
Yummy burger
Good food and polite knowledgeable staff
Ive purchased from S&H Northstowe van, the burgers were cold and raw meet. Very poor quality!
The food quality is superb! I think this place beats one of the best burger places in London. The patty was succulent, well seasoned, not overcooked. The burger had toppings that went together very well. The bun was not starchy, amount of sauce was on point. Thank you guys!
Better next door @honest burger
Growing up in the states weve had our fair share of burgers and S&H is by far one of the best burgers weve ever had and without question the best burger in Cambridge. Whether we visit the vans or we come into the shop the quality is always consistent and top notch. The burger kits are also awesome!
Best burgers in Cambridge
I m convinced that Steak & Honour create the world s best burger. I m qualified to say this because I ve eaten a lot of burgers in my twenty nine years. I ve eaten so many burgers, in fact, that it came to define my personality and my PlayStation user name was BURGER_LOVER . Bursting with flavour and with the rare ability to make you feel great - and not at all bloated afterwards- I m confident these guys and their vans are the best in Cambridge.
Just had this from the burger van in Northstowe. Burger was lovely but dont rate the fries at all. In my opinion for the price you pay I would rather buy elsewhere as not value for money thats why I have given 3 stars! If I did get again I would just have a burger!
Probably the best burger joint in Cambridge. A touch on the expensive side, but its a juicy, filling burger. Look out for the Sid Vicious when its on the menu for a wonderful mess!
We ordered some burgers online to collect from our local pub and they were, without a doubt, the best burgers we have ever had! So much better than Five Guys!
Me and my partner had very impressive tasty burger from one of your vans parked outside the the boot in dullingham tonight. Quality of the food was 100% spot on. We will be definitely using you again in the future.
I just finished my one for Ella! So delicious! Well done guys!
Love this place. Best burgers in Cambridge Town. High quality meat coupled with great service.
The best burger I ve ever had in my entire life!
Best burgers in town.
Best burgers! By far my favourite burgers in town. Plus this location has more burger options and sides to choose from than their food trucks. The seating could be more comfortable but the burgers are worth it.
Not splendid meat, questionable value for money
Great burgers, really friendly staff. Upstairs eating area is not as smart and tidy as the photos show but it is only for a quick bite!
Customer service is spot on. Attention to detail. My Ella burger touches me just where it needs to.
Excellent juicy burgers
I ate the best cheeseburger of my entire life! Must try once in your life.
Best burgers in town :)
Been here couple of times , i liked it def would go again !
Instagram burgers. Nothing more to say.. perfect!
Never disappointed!!!
Amazing food !!!!
good basic food. Great service.
Very good meat burgers, but dont go for frites. I guess this place is top three burgers of Cambridge but not the best
Amazing food - but expensive
Easily the best burger in Cambridge. Couldnt recommend enough.
There are some good burger places in Cambridge BUT this is the best. My whole life looking and looking for the perfect burger and then at age 54 and so many countries visited I finally find it the.....Ella burger. It is perfection and when all the flavours mix so deliciously in the mouth it is a feast for kings.. You will not leave hungry!! Good portion sizes, funky decor and good music. Another thing i can tick off my bucket list (finding the perfect burger). Now to look for the perfect Mexican food.
We went on a Saturday night. We thought it was a cheap take away place as we couldnt see any table but we were very surprise with the place. They have 2 floors with tables and the burgers are anything but take away style/flavour. We order the cheeseburger and Ella burger with sweet potatoes. I love the taste of the burger sauce from Ella. The meat was delightful. The only problem that I see ( and it is the reason for the 4 starts) is that the kitchen is next to the order place so you end up smelling like fried burger. I will repeat!!
We asked for a gluten free menu, they said Yes..... and they use the same knife using for a classic bread. Probably they do not know anything about allergens, cross contamination and food ang hygiene. But they should know they can cause health problemp with their actions!
Try the chicken burger. My favorite.
Excellent :-)
One of the two best burger places in Cambridge, never a bad choice.
Burgers to greasy for me
