Burger Theory has been built from the ground up with real grassroots, powered by an insatiable quest for better, fresher and more creative burgers.

Founded in 2012 Burger Theory is led by brothers in burgers Rory and Nick.

All our food is made from locally sourced produce, high-welfare farming and a whole lot of love!

We are a cook-from-scratch kitchen. We pickle and ferment, braise and brine.

Our aim is to innovate burger cuisine and bring happiness to the word though the medium of the humble burger.

These days you can find Burger Theory at Bristol street food markets, music festivals across the county, private catering & wedding events & at our flagship restaurant on St Stephens Street, Bristol.

Have you guys noticed someone is always moving to Japan? In this economy, we'll settle for a bowl of our brand-new Kaarage Fries to scratch our itch for relocating. Crispy chicken thigh bites are tossed in a sticky, chilli sauce, popped on a portion of fresh fries and then covered in miso mayo, Asian style slaw, pickled red pepper and nori seaweed - Meshiagare! (召し上がれ)
DO NOT BE AFRAID - What you're experiencing is the sun on your skin and vitamin slowly making its way to your brain creating a sense of peace and joy! Peel off those cardigans and ditch the parkers - we've got outdoors looking lovely and a super lunch deal to enjoy alfresco! Lunch Deal - free fries or slaw and a soft drink with any burger ordered between 12pm - 5pm Monday to Friday!
The Prairie girl is taking a holiday but we know how much you love her, so meet her family! Buffalo Bites are an ode to that saucy girl - chicken thigh bites smothered in our house buffalo sauce, blue cheese sauce, blue cheese crumb and finished with some candied jalapenos for good measure. They're hot, sweet, spicy and a little blue - who isn't in 2025? Available now!
Saturday is going to be H E C T I C with St Patrick's Day and the Six Nations colliding together in a Guinness-soaked scrum! ☘️ 🏉☘️🏉 So, whether you're looking to line your stomach, find a rugby-free zone to enjoy some food or want to order in for the games, we're here! We have a bunch of new menu items to tempt you, too! Book a table via the link in the bio or hop onto @ubereats_uk and we will take care of the rest!
Bristol - we've tweaked the menu and it might be our best yet... We have new items hitting your eyeballs (and hopefully faces) this month but we had to start with this belter of a burger, the PBn'J! We've popped two smashed patties, American cheese, pancetta, blueberry habanero jam and miso peanut butter between two buns and called it a day. A really, really good day. Available NOW!
