HANBAO in Birmingham

The space has an awesome atmosphere with a really cool aesthetic. Staff were lovely and really made us feel welcome

Food is always good, first time in Birmingham but it holds up to the Worcester site. Atmosphere is good even if it isn't busy. Service is good and don't constantly bother you. Would highly recommend.

Great venue, one of the best around for burgers and fries! The chicken wings were incredible too!

Always good food here, that is reasonably priced. Staff are amazing too!

Five stars for HANBAO! We absolutely loved our food—burgers were juicy and full of flavour, the dirty fries were next level, and the cocktail selection was spot on. The staff were super friendly and gave us some great recommendations. The atmosphere was amazing—very cool vibe throughout. Definitely coming back next time I’m in Birmingham!

Stopped by on a lazy Sunday with family, we were seated quickly and greeted by Claudia our waitress. Despite being rushed off her feet and clearly swamped with a busy restraunt the service was truly excellent. Our children loved the way she interacted with them making them laugh and cheer, even though she was pressed for time. Food was excellent. Hanbao is deffinately worth a visit! Also if the management is reading, seriously, give Claudia a pat on the back, top top service from her!

Really great place. Booked in advance with £10 deposit. Waiter asked what we might be interested in and offered recommendations. Food was great, really tasty and we didn't have to wait long. Super friendly service, would definitely recommend!

Great featuring staff are firlendly and welcoming location can be hard to park at but as there is so much to see and do locally a short walk is not a burden

Great Burger joint, couldn't fault the service or food.

Absolutely fantastic, burgers and fries are brilliant!

Great food, cocktails and service. Definitely worth a visit.

This place was really cool, solid food and a solid atmosphere. Would recommend

Went there yesterday and absolutely loved the whole experience!! The service, the choice and - especially - the burgers and fries!

Food & drinks were 10/10. My partner & I had to wait a while for our drinks, but we didn’t mind as the team were v apologetic & made it up to us - which was greatly appreciated. Would definitely recommend

Burger and beer in a clean place

First time coming here, and from the attentiveness and friendliness of the staff it got full marks from me💕 Both ladies who looked after me and my friend were amazing! With the portion & variety of food you can have is great ! The food was delicious, hot and came out in good time! Mocktails were top tier too 🙌🏾 deffo worth the visit if you haven’t already been!

The food here is incredible. I highly recommend the chicken mac & cheese. The crispy chilli oil is soooo tasty. The tiger wings are so perfectly sweet and sticky. And the pulled pork waffle fries are delicious! Also, I had the sour diesel cocktail which was soooooo yummy!!

Nicely decorated building in a strange, abandoned industrial neighborhood. Service was smooth and friendly. Ideal for a quick bite. Burger itself could have had a little more flavor.

Honestly, the best burger store in Birmingham!

Chips with very well done caramelised onions and American cheese Miso wings were godly, arguably the best wings I’ve had in the U.K. can’t really fault anything about it other than maybe too much bbq to miso ratio Hong Kong Phooey was just a piece of work. Let’s be honest char siu pork in a cheese burger with fresh chilli peppers is something out of a anime. If you don’t try it, you might just have one more regret when you’re on your deathbed.

Best spot in Birmingham. Loved the loaded fries and the burgers. The customer service was 10/10

Only had 2 burgers (O.D.B. and dak gang), but it was all fantastic. Will definitely be back if were back around this area.

Business lunch... Fantastic! No other words.... thank you

Now this place is excellent all the time, love the atmosphere, decor (except sometimes the lights above some tables can be a bit bright/sharp), staff, the food (of course) the cocktails 😈 but a special mention for the Pancake Tuesday special - the Panbao. Out of this world, patties and chese wrapped in pancakes with all sorts of other stuff going on and DRENCHED in maple syrup though still not overpowering the rest of the burger. See my pics and drool over this beut. I'll be back, of course, but oh my word definitely for Pancake Tuesday!!1!

Claudia who served us was lovely, polite and informative. She clearly cared about us having an enjoyable experience and wanting to come back. She was a positive representative of your company and a pleasure to meet.

Food and service was fantastic, such a lovely lunch spot!

Best burger joint in Birmingham. Amazing food

Really quirky mix of Asian and western industrial decor, and the most phenomenal food. We had the special, which was pancakes with burgers, chicken, cheese and all the trimmings. We paired it with miso fries and salt, pepper wings. Utterly gorgeous, and coupled with the attentive friendly service, I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Digbeth.

Amazing food good service great experience. Kat serving was especially good. Quick turnover without the rushed feel

I like how all the workers wear off-white it’s lit in there , 10/10

Incredible panbao burger for pancake

Food is amazing. Never had a burger as tasty as this one. And we've had some burgers in our day.

Unbelievable food, service was good! Had burger fries and some wings + 3 beers & it was £54 WITH service charge! All in all a yes from me

Brilliant experience with the team especially Claudia our main waitress, just really authentic customer service rather than feeling routine. All the team had the right mix of being attentive without being overbearing, and accommodated our party well with taking orders while we waited for our last person to arrive. Crazy food combinations and the sorta place you could just devour the whole menu. Great work 🍔

Little bit too loud, and our table was missing cutlery so we had to pinch from another one, but otherwise excellent. Food was brilliant as always

Great music Great food Staff professional and friendly Will definitely visit again

I ordered the juicy burger, which was one of the most delicious and flavoursome burgers I've ever eaten, I've visited Hanbao before and I'll be returning again, good spot for valentines 💝 day!

Food was beautiful. Wings were spot on. A little bit pricey for a burger and chips in a Digbeth warehouse but I guess I'm not hip. Would definitely recommend.

Incredibly salty food and not much else. Shame as it looked really good. Service was pretty bad as well and not a comfy setting with bar stools.

Unforgettable Flavors and Top-Notch Service! If you’re a fan of mouthwatering burgers, then Hanbao is an absolute must-visit! From the moment you walk in, the inviting atmosphere and friendly staff make you feel right at home. The menu offers a fantastic variety of burgers, from classic cheeseburgers to creative gourmet options that cater to every taste.

Always an incredible burger, lovely venue and friendly staff willing to help. Lovely new menu too.

The food was super delicious - we ordered the ODB burger, Dak Gang burger, buffalo wings and pork belly mac and cheese. All the food was delicious and tasty but the burgers would have been better if they were served hot (they were kind of cold). But the wings were amazing! All of the staff were so kind and friendly to us and the service was great. I can’t wait to come back!

The food was absolutely fantastic, and Claudia was a wonderful server. She's attentive, friendly, and welcoming. We love Hanbao!

Food was amazing and the staff was so friendly. Nice and relaxed, definitely will visit again

I had a much better experience this time around! Food was stunning and we were well looked after

Really good. Went on a Thursday night so it wasn’t busy. Have been to the Worcester Hannah before it never tried the digneth one. Lovely food.

Not the first time i have left a review for this HANBAO its a 10 /10 for the food. The food here is fantastic good portions plenty of flavors . always excellent service especially this time on by the floor staff Holly Cherise and Catatina was very attentive quality service 5stars all round.

Hanbao Birmingham never disappoints! Their burgers are absolutely incredible—easily the best in the city. I’ve been three times now, and every visit has been outstanding. This time, I brought two children with allergies, and the chefs and staff went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, taking extra care to prevent cross-contamination. Their attention to detail, customer service, and dedication to quality make Hanbao a cut above the rest. Can’t wait to go back—this place is truly a whopper of a find!

Great food and atmosphere. Busy with many large tables so a longer wait was expected especially as everything is fresh. Attentive to allergies so the worry of eating out was reduced. Excellent choice of burgers and sides too. The vegan ODB comes highly recommended too

Food unreal. Atmosphere even better. Claudia who served us is so good! Thank you for the amazing service. Will be back ASAP.

amazing food as ever but service from claudia (i think) was FAB!!! was soo busy but she was still sooo friendly and lovely thank you!!

Food was lovely. Claudia was our server for the afternoon, very attentive and bubbly. Brilliant service thank you Claudia!

Real tasty food. Filled us all up. Staff are friendly and kind. Keep up the good work

Nodding along to hip hop whilst chomping on some dirty burgers and fries. Yes please 👌🤌

Food was really good, also the service from the girl we had was even better. I think her name was Llehlani (not sure if that’s how you spell it) but she was very sweet and very attentive. She made our experience even more special

Lovely restaurant! Food is great and so is staff! Very welcoming and calm atmosphere and staff always ready to help :))

Can’t fault the food and the service was good when the staff had chance. Unfortunately for them they appeared extremely understaffed last night and couldn’t handle the demands of drink orders etc. We requested the card machine multiple times. The toilets are an abomination and every inch of the toilet and the floor inside each cubicle was saturated in urine and does not make for a pleasant experience, especially in a food establishment. Overall, I’d return for the burgers but maybe stick to midweek.

a little out of the way but well worth the search. excellent burgers with a Chinese style twist and great choice of fries, not the cheapest but definitely worth it

Amazing food & service, Claudia was wonderful as always! Excited to visit again soon

Cherishe and catering colly have been the best service I've experienced Bosh

The burgers were amazing, so flavoursome! The service was swift and friendly. The cocktail we had was lovely although nothing too special but the decor and overall vibe made the trio into Digbeth worth it.

My most favourite place to eat in the country, food is unreal BUT..... My heart is broken, arrived Sunday for my anniversary meal excited for the new menu and you've taken the odd future away 😭 Words can't fathom my sadness please bring it back hanbao I beg

Nice place, great atmosphere, very friendly staff and good food

Highly disappointed. Came here after seeing photos on instagram. One of the beef burgers ordered was red raw in the middle, the fried chicken was black, and tasted of dirty oil🥴 and the sauce on the burger was like water. The so called “seasoned” waffle fries didn’t have anything on them, not even any salt. The manager did remove the raw burger off the bill after arguing that it was cooked. Staff seemed confused and lost when any questions was asked regarding the menu and the service wasn’t great. Probably wouldn’t return after this expirence.

Absolute brilliant selection of grub, good vibes, and great friendly attentive staff. Really great bunch. I had: Piggie smalls Burger - absolutely smashing,totally recommend! Shaolin Chips - Chips with pork belly (the pork was very good and the fries were decent) Fried chicken - Wu-tai clan with Tiger Mayo (succulent and the batter is top notch)! Only downside was the beer selection, being Birmingham I'd have hoped for more craft beer options (particularly on draft) but it was still good. Hands down you must try if you're in the area

Good was greaaat, and staff were really friendly! Look forward to visiting again soon

Food, service and atmosphere were 5 stars here. Easiest 5 star rating I have given. From the moment we walked in to the moment we left we had quick and friendly service, then the food arrived and blew me away! I had the juicy burger with shaolin fries and honestly it was beautiful. One of the best burgers I've ever tasted and the fries with pork belly on were delicious. My partner is vegetarian too, and a big tick for her is that you can swap any patty with a vegan patty which opened all the burgers up for her. Highly recommend and will 100% be back. Update - they have removed the vegetarian Miso Dirty Fries unfortunately, so the only veggie fries are cheese on fries. The new additions are delicious but beware, they are huge! Not bites, delicious though and I recommend the tiger sauce!!

Always very good. Good food and good service. Will definitely go back again soon 👍

Came for a last minute meal and was served by Colly. Fast drinks and fast service. Thankyou!

Amazing food with amazing service. Our waitress was Claudia and she was so friendly and made great recommendations. The music was great too. Would definitely visit again! The only improvement would be the toilet cleanliness. Thanks so much for making my Brothers 18th Birthday one to remember!

Burgers were ok, nothing amazing. absolutely awful service took well over an hour for the food to arrive.

Very very delicious, the staff there are very nice and friendly too. The burger very tasty, the bacon very good on the burger( taste like smoke bacon, the bacon in the burger tastes very Hong Kong style bacon) 100%🤌🏽 will come back again.

First time at Hanbao, a well kept and clean restaurant and bar serving asian fusion burgers and sides. I enjoyed the basic cheeseburger. I found the wings and fries too salt and excessively saucy. The portion sizes were smaller than i was expecting and just was left hungry. Overall a decent experience for the price and i may return to try other menu items. Great service and friendly staff.

Really great place, almost hidden away... We were lucky to walk in as it was super busy and seemed really popular. I'm glad they were able to seat us as the food was phenomenal!! Had a burger each and some loaded froes which were outstanding. I would highly recommend this place for the food. Service was rather slow unfortunately, but they were extremely busy soo... Maybe I'm being a little harsh? Will definitely visit again. Great atmosphere, good music and good vibes.

Best burgers in Birmingham, have been going to Hanbao for years, and always had a great experience. Food and service were faultless. Looking forward to trying the new menu on my next visit.

Love this place. The burgers are unreal. Worth a visit

We have been eating at Hanbao for about five years. First at the Worcester one, now in bham. The food is always perfect and delicious. Service is really fast and you're never waiting long for your food no matter how much you order. Portion sizes are brilliant and it's very easy to over order. It's our go to restaurant and will be for the foreseeable future. If you like burgers, Hanbao is top dog.

Quiet but we were in early. Great food 10/10 burger, a bit heavy but what was needed for the night ahead

My dears I can say that you are wonderful and have a very friendly service. We felt very good in this fabulous place.. plus the cocktails were delicious and the food, I have no words to describe how good and tasty it was. We thank you for being nice and making us feel so good that we will be back soon. thank you lovely

Great burgers! (The Mac Daddy Kane pictured)

I’ve been a loyal customer of this burger shop since the day they opened, and it’s always been my favorite. Unfortunately, I’ve noticed a decline in quality recently. The fries and chicken now taste like they’re fried in old oil, which really affects the flavor and makes it hard to enjoy the food. I’m disappointed to see this change, especially since I know how great the food used to be. I hope they address this issue and bring back the quality we love.

Hadn’t been to HANBAO before but heard really good things online. Despite that, was more impressed than I expected to be. The food options all sound excellent and reasonably priced. The burgers, fries and cocktails we had were all tasty and came in good portion sizes. Service was also very friendly so will definitely go back.

10/10 food and service ! Highly recommend

Dayum! Dayum! Dayum! Best burger joint in Birmingham, the staff were super nice and attentive too 😊

Genuinely one of the best restaurants I've ever visited, and the place I always bring people to whenever I have guests visiting from outside of the city! Hanbao is an absolute gem of a place, and easily the best burger I've ever had, and I'm saying this as someone who isn't much of a burger person, especially beef burgers. But Hanbao's smash patties are to die for -- I've now tried the Hanbao, the Juicy, and the Black Bean Philly and they all balance the ingredients perfectly. The buns don't fall apart and you're not fighting to get the entire thing in your mouth despite how intimidating they look in the photos on the website! Admittedly, it is a bit of an expensive place to eat. The burgers don't come with any sides, so you'll need to buy fries separately for the classic burger experience. You're looking at around £15 - £20pp minimum before any drinks are included, which does make this place more of a treat for me than a regular eatery. Despite it being pricier than I would traditionally be willing to fork out for, it's more than worth it in my opinion. My personal favourites are the Black Bean Philly burger and the Shaolin fries. My partner isn't a fan of pork belly but despite this he absolutely loves the Shaolin fries! The staff are lovely and are super accommodating, too. We had half of our booking having to take a taxi all the way from Stafford thanks to mass train cancellations over the weekend -- one quick phone call later and we were able to push our booking back by 90 minutes which was a huge relief. Part of me wants to gatekeep this place because of how good it is, but I'd also love for more people to know that Digbeth is full of fantastic places like Hanbao. Even if you're not a huge burger fan I'd recommend you give it a go, I reckon you'll be pleasantly surprised.

A strong Burger! Its going ham! Damn!

Absolutely loved Hanbao. Great service, food and drinks selection.

Possibly one of the best burgers I have had in Birmingham. The atmosphere is cool and the soundtrack was consistently impeccable. Will be back.

The difference between a weak burger and a burger that has strength....... Is Hanbao. 💪

The burgers were cooked perfectly and very filling, the juicy definitely lived up to its name and I would definitely go back, service was great and atmosphere was cool with a skate feel, the only downside was that it wasn't more busy when we went but arriving after typical lunch time hours that's unsurprising. Other than that, prices are great and I would definitely recommend.

The food is very very good but the management is terrible! Twice now we have arrived and even though there were many empty tables, you need to ask them 3-4 times before they decide to let you have a meal there. Both times another 3-4 tables remained completely empty while we had our meal so it's never fully booked as the management claims to be. This makes the overall experience really bad.

Delicious burgers, loaded fries to die for!!!

food is amazing. service is great as well, staff are very friendly. the menu is unique and food came really fast.

Great service from Leilani and brilliant food!

Good burgers, nice environment and most importantly, the service is really good!!! Good to see the burgers combined the Chinese style pork and western food, will defo recommend Hanbao for those first try this restaurant

The food was like nothing else I have ever had! Plus the venue was lovely, and really cool!

Very nice atmosphere, super friendly staff and the food was amazing. Not the cheapest in terms of price, but it's worth it.

Great, inventive burgers. Loaded fries were excellent too. Nice staff.

First time Ive been here and I will definitely come again. We didn't book a table and team were really accommodating, we sat in the bar and Jay was our waitress, she was attentive, friendly and gave her suggestions. Food came out so quick (definitely over ordered but tool left overs in a cute takeaway box) Anderson was also friendly and super welcoming. Great job guys!

Staff were great, helpful at explaining the menu, gave us recommendations and how it all works. Atmosphere was spot on and the place was spotless. Faultless burger experience. It was dining made easy. Food was phenomenal. Zero faults
