stevieb Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 (edited) Never seen anyone in there. Don't reckon it'll last long There was no one in there when it was fucking packed out on the streets for the christmas markets. I did not expect it to last this long. Byron is alright the few times I've been. Like people are saying though, at th'end o't'day its £10 for a burger. You are getting bum raped for what you could make yoursen to a better standard for next to nowt. Evuna is good on a sunny day, sat outside for a bit of tapas and people (and tit) watching on Deansgate.Off peak its 3 tapas for a tenner as well.

jules_darby Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I like Byron; good burger, but then I like them all These places generally use really good ingredients so I'm not having it that they're money for old rope 5 guys at the Trafford Centre is very good too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a tenner? Nah. I don't mind paying it for a bit of convenience but I know it's not value. I do like the Byron IPA though (£4.25 330ml).

Moderators Casino Posted June 13, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 13, 2014 I do like the Byron IPA though (£4.25 330ml). i agree with you about burgers for a tenner being food for folk with no sense who want to be able to say theyve spent a tenner on a burger but then you blow it by admitting to paying over 4 quid for a small bottle of warm beer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youri McAnespie Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I'm not praising McDonalds either, I suppose they're independent in a way (hipster places) - it just saddens me that there are probably decent restaurants dying on their arse because folk would rather have a burger that, for all it's tastiness, could probably be knocked together by a nine year old with a bit of instruction.

Moderators Casino Posted June 13, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 13, 2014 indeed, but who is gonna be impressed when you share that over dinner 'oh ya, i had a smashing burger at that lovely backstreet place for a pound ninety nine' fcuk that when you can say you've spent half western saharas gdp on a piece of 'meat' from asdas freezer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
