Honest Burgers

I loved it here! The staff were very helpful, and explained the menu to me. Not only was I able to have a burger and onion rings, but there was also a craft beer on draft that was gluten free. Everything was absolutely delicious, and reasonably priced. Highly recommended - will definitely be back!

So good! I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and didn’t think I’d be able to eat a burger or onion rings again. The staff were super friendly and helpful! ✨

I have eaten at honest burgers many times over the years (maybe 15 times) and never had any problems. I’ve spoken to them at length about their cooking methods and often ask if anything has changed when I visit. Their core menu is almost entirely gf apart from the normal bread bun so there’s a low risk of cross contamination. No gluten products in the fryer so chips and onion rings safe! I’m super sensitive and now have a dairy and soya allergy and they have always gone out of their way to help me. This is one of my safe places to eat!

After our 3rd and possibly last meal at Honest Burger in Reading although we’ve always appreciated the ability for most of the burgers to be made GF and usually a GF beer on tap or at least an option in cans, on our last visit we were both ill. We chose different burgers - 1 chicken and 1 beef - with rosemary fries as sides. We had not really eaten much else that day but within the next 1-2 hours we were both feeling sick and my wife was unable to work the next day. We are very suspicious that there was contamination even though I have typically been asymptomatic. We don’t want to cast aspersions as previous 2 visits have been fine and plenty of other reviews are positive, but we won’t take the chance again. Would recommend double checking they are avoiding contamination as well as choosing the GF roll for your burger. Aside from this we’ve also reflected that >£40 for 2 burgers and fries + 2 beers is pretty expensive even for in theory a high end burger.

Great service, waitress couldn’t eat gluten so we had a good conversation about symptoms and she was great at explaining the menu. Brilliant that the fries and onion rings were safe and they had gf beer (I didn’t have it, I had cider). Lovely burger (Reading special with Waterloo cheese) and great that they had a good choice for gluten free and my vegetarian friend. Fries were lovely!

I’ve eaten here a few times and have usually been fine. I am super sensitive to cross contamination. In my last visit I had a bun for the first time and it made me slightly ill. The food is great and the fries and onion rings are very safe

Everything except the standard buns are gf, including the onion rings! GF buns are £1 extra and taste like actual bread.

My gluten free onion ring dreams are 100% fulfilled after a visit to Honest Burger. And the burger I got, with GF bun, was fantastic. ALL food is GF except their ordinary hamburger buns and beer. But they have GF buns and GF beer too. ALL sides and all burger options are GF. Honest Burger is a gem! P.S. waitress told me the founders are Coeliac, which explains a lot!
