Burger & Beyond, the London burger operation with a die-hard following, have announced that their first location outside the capital will be in Manchester.

It’ll be opening inside huge new food hall House of Social later this summer.

They’ll be joining other independent food traders including like Mughli Charcoal Pit inside the much-anticipated new development at First Street in the city centre.

Founded in 2015 by Tom Stock and Craig Povoas, Burger & Beyond started as a food truck around London’s vibrant street food markets, KERB and Street Feast. Over the years, the brand has built a loyal following, known and loved for serving up some of the best burgers in the city alongside indulgent milkshakes and tempting sides. Their first restaurant opened in Shoreditch in 2018.

Diners can expect burgers both simple and loaded with outrageous toppings, as well as sides like fried chicken and wings. The headline dish coming with the B&B team up north to House of Social will be their famous Bacon Butter Burger; an award winning combo of dry aged beef patty, double American cheese, crispy pancetta bacon, burnt butter mayo and onion.

Tom Stock, co-Founder of Burger & Beyond, said: “After years of dreaming about bringing Burger & Beyond to new cities, we’re thrilled to finally be making our Manchester debut at House of Social. The city has such a vibrant food scene, and we’re looking forward to sharing our burgers with a whole new audience. It’s going to be a fantastic summer!”

Jake Atkinson, Head of F&B at Vita Group & House of Social, added: “We are incredibly excited to have Burger & Beyond join us at House of Social. Their reputation for quality and consistency is second to none, and they’ve been on my list for a very long time! We know they’ll be a huge hit with our community of students and food lovers in the city. This is just the beginning, and we can’t wait to bring them to Manchester this summer.”

Burger and Beyond will open at House of Social, First Street, in Summer 2025.
