    I had the honest burger with the honest pale ale. The service was great and so was the food. The beer was about 4£ for a can, but it was really good. The burger was delicious as well as the fries.

    Honestly, if I could eat this for the rest of my natural born life I would be one extraordinarily happy burger eating lady. Get the Honest with a Redchurch Bethnal Pale Ale. Incredible.

    The veggie fritter is one of the best burgers Ive ever had, much better than the offerings at the other trendy burger joints. Try their homemade lemonade, the chipotle mayo and the honest beer as well

    Small & simple place hidden in Soho streets yet the food is great. Chicken burger is amazing to the point of “one is not enough”. If you are a chicken lover and in London don’t miss it

    Try the plant burger its amazing. Love the rosemary fries. The onion rings have anise seeds so didnt like them that much but its not the dominant flavour. Definitely recommend!!!!

    Really very good tender burgers with a great bun. The Rosemary salted chips (Fries for you yanks) are amazing as is the mint lemonade. Small venue venue though but well worth it.

    Never had such a great burger and the Rosemary fries are too die for! Arrive early to avoid the queue. Great service.

    Best burgers in London! Staff make sure you're comfortable at all times and are friendly. They ran out of bread so they gave us free complimentary chips and a discount as an apology

    Great burgers! Small but good menu. This place is a true diamond in the rough.. fries and lemonade are over rated. Beetroot coleslaw is not that good try the green salad

    To be honest it's one of the best burgers I've ever tasted. The onion rings: giant and delicious. The waiter, very nice. A new must of London for me.

    Descent burger, very nice caramelized onion, added a tad of sweetness to the burger (that could've been more strongly flavored in my view). Solves a burger craving for sure.

    I had a perfect cheeseburger, very tasty (onion relish is great), just the right size and well constructed, so that it is actually possible to eat it with your hands (which is not always the case)

    Fantastic burger, but be prepared to wait for a vacant table if you go there after 3 PM. Great drinks as well. Maybe a tad bit overhyped, but still very much worth it! You won't regret going there!

    It may look like a regular slab of junk but this bad boy is anything but re-constituted junk. The restaurant uses rare breed aged beef sourced from the cream of the bovine crop, Ginger Pig Farm.

    Great location and ample seating. Staff were prompt and friendly. Burgers are great but the real star was the rosemary fries. So damn good would definitely dig into this again when I'm in town again.

    You can find a lot of gluten free things. The Restaurant is very small, but burgers are perfect and the chips are selfmade. Try the homemade lemonade, so tasty!

    Burgers are so good you won't even have time to Instagram them. Plus they serve their Hendricks & tonic properly, with cucumber. And did I mention the delicious iced tea?

    Meaty hunks, timed to perfection and served on a glazed brioche bun with triple-cooked, skin-on chips and rosemary salt. Free-range chicken burgers and mixed veggiefritters’ are also available. Read more

    I always come here when I feel blue. The bacony burger and the rosemary potatoes cheer me up. The music is always nice which I appreciate too. Tip-don't go at rush hour to avoid queues ;)

    Amazing food, definetly one of the best burguers in London. Price is great for quality. Great location as well. The only downside is the usual 1h to 1:30h line for a table.

    Tribute burger; bacon, cheese, custom made sauce, and tasteful meat. Try the Pale Ale that they do in collaboration w/ a local brewery. Be prepared to wait a little if you go after 2-3pm.

    Gluten free buns are available for £1 extra. Also don't miss the apple and beetroot slaw! PS. Love great straws? You're in luck.

    We’ve ordered vegan chili burgers - they were extremely spicy! But plant based meat was very delicious. Yummy rosemary chips as a side dish. Not very much space.

    The chicken burger was really tasty. The rosemary chips, and the onion rings were tasty too 👍👍.. But for me, next time, i would get the mustard mayo in the burger on the side instead.

    The honest burger is good and greasy with a nice tang from the red onion relish. The rosemary chips are refreshing and almost serve as a palette cleanser between burger bites. Homemade lemonade++

    Burgers are absolutely amazing and cooked to perfection. I recommend the red Leicester cheese to top it off. The chips are also incredible. Wonderful place for burgers and very good value for money.

    one of the best burgers i've ever had in my life (for the record: i've been to the famous burger joint in NY and many others). ask for a burger+salad instead of burger+fries!

    Great Burgers (gluten-free) & Amazing Chips (gluten-free)! They even have gluten-free buns if you want them! Can I say gluten-free anymore?

    No-nonsense menu with v.small selection. Burgers and house chips are fresh-tasting and delicious but burgers are surprisingly on the small side. Wallet-friendly, too (£10 per head min.). Recommended!

    Welcome brother to the Brixton original. You can't go wrong with an Honest - although patties aren't huge, so double up. Boy they're delicious though, gets my vote over Meat Liquor and others.

    Honestly one of the best burgers I've ever had, and that is coming from a Californian! I personally think the Gluten Free bread is better than the regular buns!
