Food was just fine (side portions could be a bit bigger for price). Staff member that seated us and took our order was great. However our food sat under the heat lamps for quite a while. Three staff members were around but weirdly no one was bringing food out. After bagging a bunch of to-go orders, our food was brought to us. Chicken was plenty warm but my fries sat for a bit long. Just didn’t seem to be any urgency and the kitchen was getting things ready out of order.It was a bit pricey, but youre in downtown Edinburgh, the prices are gonna be inflated. It’s to be expected. 10% service charge included.

Despite telling our server of our gluten intolerance they allowed it to sneak into our meals and made two people extremely sick. Do not eat here if you have food allergies they will not take it seriously.

We ate here twice during our week in Edinburgh. The food is delicious and the service is excellent. Zach was particularly helpful. The staff were also great at helping us make sure our celiac daughter’s meal was safe for her to eat.Dietary restrictions: Great for gluten free.

One of the best vegan burgers I've ever had! Kind staff and good atmosphere! Highly recommended!

We’ve been going to Byron Burger restaurants for years and always enjoyed it. Usually we go to the ones in London but during our visit to Edinburgh we thought it would be great to have dinner here as well but unfortunately it was quite the disappointment.I had made a reservation and we were seated quickly, orders were taken promptly and drinks came shortly after yet it took over 45 minutes for our burgers to arrive.The restaurant was busy but not 45 minutes for three burgers busy. After 30 minutes of waiting we tried to get the attention of a waiter which was near on impossible and when we did and asked where the food was they said they’d check and come back to us. Nobody came back to us.Usually, staff also asks how you’d like your meat cooked but they didn’t do it in this brand.After we were done, the table got cleared they didn’t ask if we wanted a dessert or new drinks at all. We tried to ask for the menu again to pick a dessert but it was impossible to get someone’s attention and after another 30 minutes gave up.While we really like the burgers at Byron the service in this branch was unfortunately subpar. I understand that working on the first day of the year isn’t great but for a company that’s already in financial difficulties you’d think staff is absolutely on it. A 10% tip was added to our bill automatically… i don’t think the service was worth that unfortunately.

If you're on the hunt for a satisfying burger fix in Edinburgh, Byron's should definitely be on your radar.Booking a table at Byron's Edinburgh was a breeze.Juicy patties cooked to perfection nestled between pillowy buns, with a variety of toppings to choose from. I went for the classic "Byron," a combination of smoked bacon, cheese, and tangy BBQ sauce, and it was every bit as delicious as it sounds.I was pleasantly surprised by the extensive selection of non-alcoholic drinks. Gone are the days of boring sodas and water!

Went to try the Christmas Burger and trimmings but unfortunately the burger was really dry, all dishes were cold to just slightly warm. Gravy came with a skin on from being left under the heat lamp. Pigs in blankets were undercooked as the bacon was chewy instead of being crispy. Milkshakes were fabulous though as was the brie bites and roasty tots.

As a visiting American, it was a great taste of home... it's a great american style burger joint. We tried the basics and the not so basic halloumi sandwich, and loved it all.The downstairs area was a little more comfy and had a neat vibe.Good milkshakes, and the overall variety of drinks on the menu was great.

Poor service, with dirty dishes and unfriendly female staff.Good food, but the burgers took more than 1 hour. Although the chicken wings are prepared in 10 minutes, we received it with the burgers at the same time.

A really great restaurant at the price.Burgers are delicious and varied. The staff are welcoming, professional & friendly: they seem to enjoy working there and it shows. The atmosphere is lovely in the post industrial decor.Somewhere I'll certainly return to & I can easily see myself becoming a regular & fairly frequent customer there.So: Well worth a visit.

Go to Byron’s for a great burger. Food and service was good. The place was packed full of people but we still got in and out without delay. I also really liked that they have Tingly Ted’s hot sauce on the table.

The place was packed with people, but we had a table and didn't wait for being served after 10 minutes max.Such a pleasant atmosphere with great staff, hot and delicious food with so many options to choose.

Expensive and dry burguers, in the menu it is said that they are medium cooked and pink what's totally false (and they don't allow you to change the point of the meat). Also so not great fries but good ice cream. I wouldn't repeat.

Food was great. Prices reasonable for location. Service was very good too.Only issue is adding a service charge onto a family tab in a UK restaurant. I'd normally would leave more of a tip and yes you can opt out. This practice should not be encouraged as it prays on touristsIt makes sense in the US where staff normal wage are underpaid. Not the UK. Unless your staff is underpaid too?!
