Bun X at MIcawbers in Norwich

Simply top draw 👌 friendly team, cosy, welcoming atmosphere, some good IPAs and burgers that are just spectacular 🤤 honestly can't fault the place.. the only problem is knowing when to stop eating.. p.s. also dog friendly

Excellent burgers and good value for money. The only tiny draw back was the buffalo sauce which was sweet but not spice which is more of a nit pick than a complaint. We will return!

Didn't eat.. but hope to one day, got caught trying to pilfer a tiny animal figure.... rookie error... fantastic little place though. A real hidden gem!

My guilty pleasure is burgers. I normally get my fix in London. Everywhere seems to be having a go at burgers these days. Few hit the mark. Bun Exchange serve without a doubt, in my humble opinion, the best burgers in Norwich. The team are amazing and I am never disappointed by the quality and service. Some good deals to be had too, if you know 😉

Best burger joint in Norwich!! Been here a couple times already, and left feeling completely satisfied each time. Patties are juicy, flavourful and the sides are also top notch!! Definitely coming back

Went for lunch yesterday , Best burger and cooked right in front of me Brilliant service very attentive , don’t normally recommend but this place i would 100%. Will definitely be back. thanks

Wow what a find! We tried Bun X for the first time today after a recommendation from a friend, and we will definitely be back! The most incredible burgers, a great selection to choose from on the menu and the staff were great too. Portion sizes were decent. I had the hot and popping chicken burger and my partner had the Carvery Burger, both were unreal! We had jalapeño poppers and chicken tenders as sides - we think the chicken tenders were the best we’ve ever had 🌟 10/10 thank you!

What a fantastic place to visit. The owner is a gem. The atmosphere is fantastic. The food is sublime. Don't hesitate, go in.

I had an absolute blast this evening boozing down at micawbers. All the staff were blooming with kindness which made my experience a 10/10. You’ll be lucky if you get served by one of the waiters Jake. He’s a real catch This wont be last visit that’s for sure

I usually don’t even go out if my way to write reviews but I really felt I had to day this. Literally the best burger we’ve ever ate. 4 adults 2 btw were vegan. Even the vegans said it was the best they had. The service was outstanding, gorgeous atmosphere. A must visit ♥️🍔

The best burger joint in Norwich. Had the festive special and it was incredible. Dined here many times and the standard of service, food and setting is unbelievably good. Unbelievable consistency of being amazing every time I have been.

2nd visit was just the same as the first.... Large portions of 𝕰𝖝𝖈𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖊𝖓𝖙 food and great service

1st time here. Food was amazing. Hollie and all the staff were superb. Would definitely recommend here and we will certainly be back for more

Big dirty burgers, chicken tenders, loaded fries... What more could you ask for

My girlfriend and I decided to walk into the city as we booked a table online because we had heard it gets full. My girlfriend ordered the XX Burger which looked stunning when it came out. I had the BDC which comes with crispy streaky bacon and delicious cheddar. I can barely put it into words just how delicious this burger was. I would go as far as saying its the best burger I gave ever eaten (I'm 44 by the way so have eaten a fair few in my time). Actually, it is right up there with some of the best food I have ever eaten!! The flavour combination is just heavenly, from the burger, bacon, cheddar and perfectly sweet pickles (not too sweet just very flavourful). We also shared some great skin on salted fries, that were also superb. Well done Bun X, keep up the good work!? Little Mickeys is next on the list.

I've eaten at Bun X three times now and never been disappointed. Always tastes amazing and the portion sizes and tray deals mean great value for money. The ambience is nice in Micawber's and the staff are always helpful!

LOVE this little gem. Absolutely stunning place and the food is 100% gorgeous. Recommend

Quirky pub in the centre of Norwich. Recommend a visit.

Superb place to eat, quality food and decent selection of drinks. Jeff and his team were excellent and provided me with 2 booth tables as we were celebrating our sons 16th birthday. Will definitely be going back again!!

Great tasting burgers and our son LOVED his chicken and chips

One of the nicest burgers I’ve ever tasted. A fantastic venue, warm, welcoming and caring staff, fantastic music too. A must for all burger lovers

The food was delicious and generous. The waiting staff were lovely, kind and fun.

My partner and I hadn't booked as we stumbled upon this place, but they were able to fit us in and it was packed after the first half an hour of opening. The staff were all lovely and the food was amazing. Really good value for money. We will definitely be returning!

Lovely staff, friendly and helpful, awesome food! Chips were fluffy and crispy, wings were perfectly cooked and the burgers were delicious, definitely what I was looking for, definitely will be going back at some point!

We went here on Sunday for my son's birthday, burgers were amazing and really friendly service. Lovely place to eat

Awsome atmosphere, super clean place, most delicious burger ever!!!

My new favourite place in Norwich - 10/10 for lovely staff, vibe and food was amazing! So friendly from the moment we walked in the door and super dog friendly - our dog Basil even got a free burger! 🥰 shoutout to Tilly on the bar and Tom our server who were both awesome Thank you for a lovely afternoon 🤩

Lovely little place tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre. Greeted by the kind of person you instantly feel at home with, no trouble getting us seated and recommending burgers to try. We had one of the specials, a burger combo with loaded fries, sides and a fried chicken burger with burrata, pistachio pesto, candied pistachios and crispy onions, ohhh sweet Jesus it was heavenly! Definitely going back to work my way through the menu. I'd recommend booking as it was filling up while we were there, very popular!

I never write reviews, especially not positive ones, but this time I have to make an exception... We had a lovely evening here tonight and I must say I'm really looking forward to our next visit. The food was fantastic, customer service was very friendly and informative, and the atmosphere was just so cozy. It was my first time visiting, and I will definitely return and introduce more people to this restaurant. Thank you for the lovely evening!! ⭐10/10 ⭐

First time there. Brilliant 👏 best burger i have ever had. Nice cold beer too. Definitely be back .

Staff were friendly and approachable, attentive and the food was great. Comfy atmosphere. Would go again no hesitation!

Food was really good, but couldn’t fully enjoy as we were sat right next to the kitchen, who kept complaining that they had to cook 30 minutes after they should’ve been even though we booked an available slot.

Amazing staff and delicious food! Would highly recommend 👌🏻

Bun exchange is my favourite burger place in Norwich. Absolutely amazing burgers , sides, drinks and service. Constantly great dining in and on uber eats . But be warned this place is addictive 🍔🍔🤤🤤🤤☘️

Visited yesterday with my Fiance for an early Anniversary meal,service was spot on and the food was delicious,will definately be going again

This was our first visit today and won’t be the last. Food was really lovely but ordered far too much. This is the place to visit if you want the best burger in town. A little hidden gem.

One of the best burgers I've ever eaten

Best burger in town IMO, and best/(only?) poutine!

Great burgers, great sides and friendly helpful team. What's not to like. Also amazing cocktails 😄

Went here tonight. Been to zaks, fupburger etc. Bun X food is great, so much great portions. Atmosphere is good too. Fupburger is far too noisy. Needs a little work on service as there was a bit of confusion in the order but it was very quickly dealt with. We will definitely be returning.

First time at Bun X on 06/09/24, 20:00 booking. I’d heard good things from a couple of friends and decided to book this for my birthday dinner destination. The direction we came from was quite tight for our vehicle, but this is due to the history of the location, the parking was on street outside, pay and display, but free at the time we came. It was a nice warm evening and it was lovely to see people sat outside enjoying a drink and having a laugh with a server. Getting seated was nice and easy, Holly was attentive as soon as we walked in, led us to our table right in front of the open kitchen, on the way to the table I was congratulated by multiple staff on being “the birthday boy”. The place had a really nice atmosphere and I would imagine it to be very cosy in the winter, being a tall and larger person I normally struggle in older buildings, but had no problems getting to or sitting at my table. We were left to explore the menu after having a drinks order taken and specials explained, the wait was the right amount of time and our order was taken. While waiting there are plenty of things to look at around the room, including the chef and his team in the open kitchen. There was a small bit of mess on the floor at the service window where chef had gone a bit off the plates with some salad and fries and a couple of cobwebs in the corner of the room near the booth, but the use and changing of gloves and cleaning equipment by staff was a reassuring sign that the important hygiene was well under control. A surprise to my meal was a candle in my burger and the staff and other guests singing happy birthday as our meal was served, this wasn’t requested, but a nice personal touch. The food was very tasty and made with obvious fresh ingredients, the portion sizes were to my standard and I finished with a full and satisfied appetite. We had the lasagna burger, donut & chicken burger, roast pork poutine fries and bubble and squeak cheese melt balls. We were checked on only once during the meal, which I was happy with, but encouraged to only ask if we wanted more dips or gravy. We reviewed the desert board at the end, but decided we were done, maybe next time. The bill came and a brilliant sight of only £49 for all that food and drink! With the option to pay cash or card, payment was easy. The bill doesn’t have a mandatory tip, so a tip was left for our great evening. We hope to come back

Our first visit was a spot on the food was delicious 😋 the staff were helpful & accommodating! We will definitely be going back 😁

**Delicious Burgers in a Cozy, Quaint Spot – Book Ahead!** Bunx @ Micawbers in Norwich is a hidden gem for burger lovers! Tucked away just off Unthank Road, it’s easy to find and definitely worth the visit. The variety of burgers on offer is impressive, with something to satisfy every craving—from classic beef to unique vegetarian options, all bursting with flavor. The environment is small and cozy, giving it a quaint charm that makes the dining experience even more enjoyable. However, due to the limited seating, I highly recommend making reservations in advance to ensure you get a spot. If you’re in Norwich and craving a top-notch burger in a delightful setting, Bunx @ Micawbers is the place to go. Just be sure to book ahead!

wasn't too excited for burgers but these were on another level

The food was fantastic, the staff were lovely, and the atmosphere was spot on. Had a really good evening : )

I cannot argue the burger I had was delicious. Service a little slow, but staff were very pleasant. Food not cheap but definitely worth the money.

Consistently incredible burgers, fried chicken and sides. Easily the best burger I've had in the UK, in my top 5 worldwide. Second favourite slaw I've ever eaten (use of fresh herbs inspired!). Some of the tastiest fried chicken I've ever had including countless in the US. Chefs know exactly what they're doing. Throw in great fries, a literal bucket of different hot sauces, always lovely staff and impeccable music and you have yourself an absolute find X

No.1 spot for a burger in Norwich maybe Norfolk hands down, friendly staff and a good choice of beers

Food was amazing, atmosphere was brilliant. Dog friendly and very welcoming place. You can smell the food from way down the road and leaves you excited to get there and try it. 10 out of 10

First time visiting yesterday, amazing food so.mich flavour

Amazing tasting and diverse range of burgers & sides, funky atmosphere, and friendly attentive staff. Definitely recommend a visit

Good friendly service and great burgers. Note almost all burgers can have a veggie or vegan alternative.

My first time there with friends and family. It ticks all the boxes. Plus it's dog friendly. Food awesome. Service first rate and great atmosphere and nicely decorated. The burger 🍔 was delicious and very filling. I can highly recommend the roast dinner burger. Or carvery, beef or pork.

Loved this place. Burgers are the best in Norwich. Sharing platters are the perfect size. Next time I fancy a burger in Norwich I know where I will be heading for.

Definitely going back! Everything was great especially the house buffalo sauce.

Best burgers in Norwich. Always lush!

Gorgeous loaded fries in a lovely environment with AMAZING staff! A great experience.

Brilliant meal great service burgers are best ever food so tasty and more than enough to eat had to take a doggy bag home dogs were happy as well think it was a five star from them as well . would highly recommend this burger place staff really hard working we watched them cook and work they were really organised and got the food out really fast will definitely go back there

I LOVE this place. This place is everything you could want from a (mainly) burger restaurant. Not only are the burgers already unreal, the specials are to die for, see photo for Father’s Day roast special, A ROAST IN A BURGER? Following that, the sides are delish and the portions are huge so make sure you don’t have too far to walk. And to top it off, the staff are lovely. Such a friendly, helpful bunch of people. Always look forward to coming here! Good work guys x

Really tasty burger joint tucked away In a little Norwich pub. The burgers are large, tasty and fairly priced. The staff are very helpful and the place has that nice pub feel with wooden beams and floors and some unique decorations in the form of old toys.

Popped in for a work lunch, wow! Food was so yummy, I had the chicken burger and shared some pulled pork loaded fries - all amazing and have been thinking about the food since. Will definitely be back!

A must visit if you're in Norwich!! Dog friendly too! Excellent food, massive portions, delicious flavours and ALWAYS excellent service 😄 We had the best evening meal here - our server was passionate and went above and beyond with requests. We had the OG Mega Feast plus an extra burger between 3 and it was the perfect amount (plus a dessert 😜). Hands down recommend the cheese balls side, loaded fries and ALL of the beef burgers 😄 The 'build your own' cheesecake was the one of the best cheesecakes I've ever eaten out. Thank you ☺️

Absolutely excellent food, top quality burgers and some really interesting flavours and combinations. Service is good, very knowledgeable on dietary requirements as well.

The most amazing burgers Great value The chicken tenders were absolutely A* Services was perfect Nice to see staff wearing they own style of black Super friendly vibe The toilets are pretty neat too

Really friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere! There are little Sylvanian families and dinosaur trinkets everywhere, which make the place feel cosy. The food is really tasty, and they have a vegan option for almost everything!

Excellent food and excellent service

I recommend it to anyone who likes "street food" - an amazing offer! I was very surprised, the food was very tasty, had various flavors, etc. The chef obviously prepares the food with passion and the effect is surprising. Nice service, pub with good atmosphere. I will definitely come back here again.

Simply put, it's one of the best burgers places I've ever eaten! The food is absolutely filthy 😋 Staff were so welcoming and friendly, full of recommendations on food and beer, which was also excellent. Tbh, it was really tricky to pick off the menu, as it all looked so delicious, but I ended up going for the karage chicken special with prawns and kimchi mayo, which was ridiculously good. Husband went for a vegetarian version of the camembert burger, which was messy but delicious. Love how everything can be made vegetarian or vegan, rather than being a disappointing afterthought at the bottom of the menu. We'll be back, as need to try everything else on the menu.

Marvelous place to go for a burger. Not just a common burger but a proper one. Food was excellent as was the choice. Lovely atmosphere what's not to like.

I was passing and decided to pop in for a beer and stayed for a burger. I was very impressed with the service and the burger was the best I have had, the staff were really friendly. The atmosphere in the place was homely and welcoming. I highly recommend a visit, you will not be dissappointed.

Amazing smash burgers and great service! Will come back.

Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy everything about this place. The staff are excellent, kind and know there stuff about the menu. The drink selection, is vast with guest beers in all the time. But the real reason you're here is the food. Let me tell you, what excellent food it is. Quite possibly the best burger you can get in the city. Take a look for yourself! I enjoyed a OG Mega Feast (2 burgers, fries and a side of choice)... Big Macawbers Burger Double smashed patties, glazed in American mustard with beet fat onions shredded iceberg and ketchup. Camemjam Burger Double smashed patties, oozing camembert and crispy onions (with bacon added, because it's the right thing to do). Gangster Fries. (you pay extra for gangster) Chunks of Nashville hot honey butter fried chicken. drizzled in ranch and finished with chillies, spring onions and plenty of crispy fried onions! Cheesy bites. Secret blend of four cheese and little pickle pieces. Rolled in breadcrumbs and deep fried. Served with chilli jam. It was my first time and not my last. The food was brilliant. The burgers were so tasty and cooked perfectly (smash patties with excellent caramelisation). Get yourself in there, MAKE SURE YOU BOOK!

One of our favourite restaurants, they go above and beyond with their service and food. Almost the entire menu can be changed to vegan or vegetarian, they are dog friendly and have some amazing drinks options! If you are vegan or vegetarian and a dog parent you don’t want to miss out on Bun X!!

When I first got to Norwich, some guy saw I was a bit lost and gave me a bit of help getting to my hotel, I ask if he had any recommendations and suggested this place. I must say it was the best place I'd eaten at the whole time in Norwich, can't wait to go back. Staff super friendly and the food was incredible, easily the best burger I've had in years. It's not far from the centre of town, worth the walk.

Please check the price for their special burgers before you order. The one I ordered costed £21.85 which is very expensive. The staff were friendly and attentive. Service was quick, and the food arrived hot and delicious.

Heads up this is NOT affiliated with THE BUN EXCHANGE … please search for us at BUN X Norwich !! Get to know 😎😎😎

Food was INCREDIBLE, not many people in so we didn’t wait long at all for our meals. The atmosphere was amazing and such a beautiful place. All the staff were so lovely and kind and made sure everything was perfect for us. But I can’t say enough how amazing the food was. It’s now my favourite place to go

Thought we would try Bun X at Micawber's, wow... Great selection of top quality burgers, fried chicken and Korean Pulled Pork buns. Superb selection of side to accompany. All of our party of 5 came away thinking this is the best burger joint in Norwich. A bit hidden away in the city, but for those craving the tastier, and quality side of this type of food - make the effort to visit you will not be disappointed.

I have tried many burgers but nothing compares to these ones!! Amazing quality, interesting combinations and great service! Definitely best burger place in Norwich

From the moment you walk in, feels like an alternative Camden eatery. Service is friendly. Food is absolutely amazing and great value for money, specially if you're getting the sharing meal with someone else. Very generous portions. Definitely would come here again :)

Great food , great atmosphere, great value too , will be back 💕

Best burger I've ever had in my life... and I've had a lot of burgers. So reasonably priced which is so hard to find nowadays. I've already recommended Bun X to at least 10 people in a week.

Really enjoyed our burgers, our server gave us a recommendation and it was top notch. Will definitely come again. Also noticed on the menu they can accommodate vegetarians and vegans.

Absolutely brilliant food and atmosphere. Highly recommend the cheese bites and Camemjam Burger (i've still not recovered from the food coma) 🤤

Had the special pulled pork beef burger here recently. It was beautiful, very tender meat and AMAZING sauces. Chicken tenders were also cooked perfectly! Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and great chefs. Would highly recommend!

okaaaay okaaaay..... i see you guys ;))) haven't written any reviews before but this one definitely deserved it. as an avid burger eater i have tried burgers in a bunch of different cities in the uk and abroad and this one has really impressed me. the second i opened the box I said damnnn bro. chicken fillet was hanging out of the bun, same for the beef burger. flavours were on point the portions are very impressive for the price. average of £11 for a burger of this size and quality is definitely fair considering the the price an state of many other joints around norwich and elsewhere, normally only see these kinds of burgers going for £18 or more the buns were also perfect, proper thick good quality real burger buns. considering inflation and the way it feels that all restaurants are trying to cut corners and skimp on food and quality, these guys hit the nail on the head. respect...these some real burger gangsters 🫡

Dropped by at 12 on a Saturday and already super busy, that was a good sign and indeed this place was a find. Really excellent burgers and sides. I would highly recommend.

We stopped by without a reservation and luckily got a table. This restaurant served me "hands down" the best burger I've had here in the UK. I'm looking forward to my next visit 😀!

Amazing food and fantastic service - highly recommend you try this place .

If you like burgers l, This is the place to go. Best by far in Norwich and would even go as far to say Norfolk.

Amazing burgers, my wife said it was the best veggie burger she's ever had. Good value, excellent service. They even made our dog a free puppy patty. Will definitely return soon.

Came on Friday food was unreal , great flavours and taste , the feast tray was a dream ,cooked fresh in front of you , lovely new location too , would prefer a main stream lager on tap though , as not keen on the hoppy lager served , also a small kids menu would be cool as currently don’t do one , but offer the adults as kids , Follow them on social media as they love posting out their great deals and really lovely people , we’ve supported them from the raindeer lock down days and lovely to see how much they’ve smashed it since.

Excellent . Our favourite place to eat in Norwich . The burgers are delish . Great sides . Booked again for next month

Quite simply one of the best things I've ever put in my mouth. Came here last weekend for my birthday. Ordered a feast tray (great value). The burgers were simple but outrageously delicious. The chicken is perfect and the Nashville hot honey sauce is INSANE. Service was perfect and the pub is lovely and cosy. Doesn't get any better for an evening out.

Nice little back street surprise 😮

My husband brought me here tonight for my birthday. Food was excellent, service prompt and friendly, and chefs were calm and collected. Best burger around! We will definitely return. Perfect meal!

Good food in a quiet location away from the main highstreets in norwich - we came across this area on a whim whilst out for a walk and they found us a table after waiting a few minutes - normally booking is advised. We had a sharing tray of 2 burgers and sides. It did not disappoint, portion sizes were generous. The price you pay is slightly higher compared to that of a typical pub/resturant or chain. One of the burgers we did share was however quite sloppy due to the amount of sauce but was still really tasty.

A converted pub with an open kitchen. It's up there with the best burger I've had. The fried chicken is equally fantastic and the Nashville hot honey butter is so good it needs to be bottled and sold separately. The OG mega feast tray is going to be a Norwich ritual for me from now on.

The food was wonderful, Burgers were easily worth the price.

Awesome burgers and sides. Will be back for sure
