  “I have to eat gluten free, so limited as to where I can order from. I'm usually ok when I order from honest. But my most recent order was inedible and I paid £8.50 for chicken tenders that were small and tough to eat. I was given 29p credit then refused to let me respond and I can see below Honest will just feedback to the chef, so no real action made anywhere. It's a shame as they used to be good, now the inconsistency and quality to price just doesn't feel worth it.”

  “I am a burger lover. I tried Honest Burgers for the first time. I ordered the California burger. It’s so delicious that I finished the burger in no time. The chips were amazingly good as well. Go no where else if you fancy a top notch smashed burger in town.”

  “While the burger was tasty, both the burger and chips were cold (though this is most likely due to a combination of the delivery driver and the packaging used). And the photo says everything about the chips... Nothing like the ones I have had when I have physically been to the restaurant. Just tiny pieces for the most part that neither looked nor tasted fresh.”

  “I have loved in the UK for 24 years now. I have never really enjoyed burgers when I go out to eat because they are usually grey, spongy and tasteless. I absolutely LOVED this burger! They use high quality fresh not frozen meat! Then it's cooked with a char to the outside and juicy in the middle. I will happily journey to Manchester to have another! If the food wasn't enough, the service made our experience even better! The servers were super sweet, knowledgeable and really nice! It's fabulous when everyone knows about the food that is cooked and served and when they are proud of where they work. We went at lunchtime. It was a nice kind of busy. Thank you for a fantastic lunch and making my Hubby's birthday special!”

  “We heard it was the best burger in town, and we were not disappointed. Unreal food. We arrived super late and the service was super friendly to serve is before they close. Strongly recommend”

  “Ok. Sorry but 4 strips ( looks like two cut in half ) super dry for £7.95!? Is embarrassing, sad and unacceptable. Inflation happened, fine , but this ? Is like stealing from your customers.”

  “Amazing team. Amazing Service. Amazing food. I don't need to say any more but I will... Faye served us and greeted us with a warm smile, she even remembered our family from over 18 months ago! If that doesn't say it all I don't know what does! We're greatful for your service and AMAZING food. Me and my family (with two young children) all love it, the Rosemary fries alone, would be a good enough reason to return, but there's all of the above too. Thank you !”

  “Hands down the best burger and chips we have ever had in our lives. We travelled to Manchester from the West of Scotland and hadn't booked anywhere for lunch or dinner. We walked in and got served straight away. The food came very quickly and the service was amazing.”

  “We went to Honest Burgers and honestly, it’s one of the more satisfying burger meals I’ve had in the city. The smashed burgers here are genuinely delicious. We tried both the standard and the seasonal truffle raclette versions, and both were excellent in their own way. The standard is already well balanced and flavourful, but the truffle raclette one really stood out. Rich, savoury, slightly indulgent, and everything just came together beautifully. The taste profile on that was awesome without feeling over the top. The fries were also very good. Crispy, properly salted, and exactly what you want alongside a burger. The onion rings, though, were the real surprise. Absolute bomb. Crunchy coating, sweet onion inside, and dangerously easy to keep eating. Easily one of the best sides on the table. The space has a great atmosphere and relaxed vibe. Lively without being chaotic, and it feels like somewhere you can comfortably hang out rather than rush through a meal. Service was friendly and genuinely welcoming. Orders were taken quickly, food came out fast, and the whole experience felt smooth and easy. That kind of efficient but warm service always makes a difference. Overall, Honest Burgers delivers exactly what you hope for. Great smashed burgers, strong sides, good energy, and speedy service. One of those places you leave already thinking you’ll come back.”

  “I was a regular at Honest Burger in Manchester up until around the summer of 2025, the burgers here can be great, but more recently I’ve found the standards to be so inconsistent from visit to visit, with a couple of price rises, it kind of feels you never know which version of Honest you’re going to get, don’t get me wrong, I’ve had so many great burgers here, and the staff are great, but I’ve also had some pretty bad ones too. My regular favourites are the Classic Smashed Burger and the Buffalo Chicken Burger. All burgers can be made gluten-free with a 30 p supplement for the bun. The gluten-free bun isn’t too bad, but it can get hard and doughy sometimes, and it has tasted almost frozen before. They also deliver on Uber EATS. I have had some issues with the delivery service; despite ordering just a couple of minutes away, I always find that the beef-based burgers aren’t hot. I ordered a California Burger yesterday, and it was lukewarm, and even the fries were overcooked. The gluten-free options are really good, as pretty much the entire menu can be made gluten-free, even fried chicken and onion rings - so there’s certainly a lot of choice, and with the white Honest branded paper to serve on the bowls, I always feel safe eating here with my allergy. The staff are really friendly, and always try their best to deliver the best possible service. There is a service charge, and while I don’t like service charges in general, they do certainly deserve it here. I do want to focus on some of the positives, as when this place is good, it is VERY GOOD, and they can have the best burgers in town, the smashed patties are juicy, the sauces are good, the fried chicken and fillings is tasty but I’ve just had so many experiences now where the food has looked like it’s been thrown together, they’ve missed customisations (such as adding extra pickles despite removing them completley), the food has been undercooked, the bun has been poorly defrosted that it isn’t the reliable option it once was.”
