Dirty Smokey
The indulgent one: a Byron beef patty with Cheddar, pulled beef, smoked streaky bacon, beef dripping mayo, crispy onions, smoky chilli barbecue mayo, lettuce and pickles, served with gravy for dipping. Two kinds of beef, two mayos and a pot of gravy make it the heaviest burger on the menu. Come hungry and use a knife.

About Byron
Tom Byng opened the first Byron in London in 2007. He had got the idea while living in New York, when he regularly ate at the Silver Top Diner in Providence, Rhode Island, and the plan was to bring that kind of American hamburger to Britain in a sit-down restaurant. Byron grew with the British gourmet burger boom of the 2010s.
About a dozen restaurants in Britain, down from 67 at the 2018 peak.
