Reviews of HANBAO
N.
Been going for a couple of years now. And still love the place. Food is excellent, Staff are really friendly, and they do great (bourbon) cocktails. Kids meal is also great value… Burger Fries and a drink = 7
J. S.
Absolutely brilliant.
Firstly. We were super impressed with the service and attention to details such as double checking food allergies at time of booking and again when seating us. The staff were all friendly and seem to know exactly what they are doing and although the restaurant was busy the staff didn't appear to be rushing or stressed and gave off a cool air of chill which really helped set the tone of the restaurant.
The restaurant itself feels super trendy with dark decor, pops of bright red, and a really cool neon lit tunnel to walk through at the entrance. You almost feel like you're entering a different dimension. There is a roof terrace too but we didn't see it this time round although will have a look next time. Excellent atmosphere overall.
There was a great choice of non alcoholic mocktails which we were pleased to see and they were obviously thought out and interesting instead of the common basic 'fizzy juice' options you often see at places.
The menu was full of awesome burgers (well, it is a burger joint) with a really varied and interesting selection, with lots of weird and wonderful options, and the actual food served did not disappoint our expectations. The burgers were amazing and we really enjoyed them. The loaded fries were great too but be warned the portions are huge! 😍😂
Service was quick, and our waiter even gave us the option to get the bill quickly or to chill a bit after the meal. This impressed us as we are the 'eat and leave' kind of family so get frustrated when it takes ages to get the bill and pay after we have finished eating.
Overall the food and service here was brilliant and we can't wait to return!
Highly reccommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
K. W.
I've always wondered: why pay so much for a burger when you can get a takeaway burger for so much less, but I was not disappointed. Probably the best burger I've ever had. Also the chips were awesome, although chips and a burger is a lot of food. I'd recommend sharing the chips. Everything was delivered quickly and piping hot. Apart from the drinks - they were meant to be cold.
The restaurant is clean and modern, while the service was pleasant and friendly. Can't fault the place!

Visited here 2 weeks ago with friends, little too my knowledge that this was actually featured in the top 10 independent restaurants in the UK for many years in a row.
However they were fantastic. Food was amazing, the waiter was lovely and attentive and didn’t pressure you to get more drinks which was nice.
M. H.
The hype around Hanbao is completely true. I’d waited far too long to try it, so went twice in the space of a week! The venue itself is really unique, and the food is out of this world. Packed with flavour and a plethora of options, it won’t be long til I’m back! Glorious
C. W.
The venue is nice at the back and the service was very good.
The juicy burger was indeed juicy, however the special sauce added a strange taste to it.
Perhaps a poor choice.
Having said this my friend had the piggie smalls burger doubled up and had a similar taste and experience.
We both left thinking it's not our number 1 choice for a burger. It was good. Just not as tasty as we had hoped.
The presentation of them is superb though.
When I can, I go to the beefy boys in Hereford which personally has the edge over this. Everyone's tastes are different which I appreciate.
The BBQ chicken wings were good and the fries ok with the toppings, although the bacon-aise needed something more to it.
It was a good meal, but it's a burger were I wouldn't rush back to have another. Which is a shame as I had high hopes for this place.
J. A.
Hear about this place online, also had good reviews so made the 30 min trip to go. If you are lucky and go later or on Sunday there is free parking on the side of the street, otherwise during the day you will have to find a paid car park and walk, there's plenty around but will be a few mins walk.
It was amazing. The decor of the place is great, really trendy. There is music playing, it's not very loud but does cause the place to be a bit noisy so don't expect a quiet meal out.
The staff were very attentive and we were not left waiting, it was busy inside but we were served quickly for drinks, there is a very good cocktail menu but also a good selection of mocktails suitable for non alcohol drinkers. Someone on another table ordered a cocktail that arrived on fire, it was really impressive.
After the drinks arrived the guy took our order, our son is picky so asked for a few changes, all were took without issue. It took around 15 mins for the food to arrive and wow it looked great and everything exactly as ordered.
Once we finished the guy cleared our table and asked if we wanted more drinks or the bill, we said bill and he asked if we wanted the card machine, we said yes and straight away we had paid and on our way.
Really great staff, no messing, no waiting around just a great hassle free tasty meal in a really nice atmosphere. Will definitely go back again.
For 3 burgers, 3 mocktails and 3 sides is came to just over £67 thst I think is reasonable considering the taste of the food and drinks.
S. C.
Well what can I say about Hanbao! I have tasted many burgers in many different towns. Hanbao is literally the very best burger you will taste, no question. I had the "Ceasors Palace, BBC Fries and Twerk chicken wings. The taste of all 3 was out of this world.... The restaurant itself is also very cool visually... We will definately be back and I would highly recommend trying them out 🍔👍🏾
E. G.
Great burgers! I just wished they had more vegan options as they only have 1 vegan burger on the menu at the moment but it was really good! They also adapted the menu to offer vegan mayo with our fries which was highly appreciated.
L. A.
Best burgers I’ve ever tried! They got a good choice of fancy burgers and fries and everything I’ve tried was worth it every penny. Very fancy design, good and positive service & great burgers so definitely it’s a Big YES from me. Give it a go, you won’t regret.
S. F.
Once again Hanbao delivered, we were served by the lovely Paige who looked after us all wonderfully! Always happy to come back, cannot recommend highly enough!
J. R.
Spectacular! Probably the best burger I ever had. Amazing fries and cocktails too. Highly recommended
S. V.
Absolutely INSANE 🫶 These guys have smashed it! Great quality food at great prices and an incredible vibe! All beef, no drama 🤣👍
T. L.
Stopped in for lunch while sightseeing in Worcester. Had seen some good reviews.
And this is good. I had the Caesars Palace chicken because I wanted the crunch. Well fried chicken, nice sauces. Could have been a bit spicier for me but still a good meal.
Very friendly staff and good service. Nice setting for a meal.
A. C.
My god this place does the best burgers I've ever tasted. I was sceptical of the sweet doughnut bun at first but it is an absolutely delicious combination alongside the chilly and savoury flavours. Will absolutely be returning soon.
L. J.
Food was good. Lots of topping on the burger so didn't get much taste of the actual burger which was a shame. Service was average, took a long time when asked for things e.g. cutlery and water. Reccomend sharing a side as they are large
A. P.
Easily the best burger place I've been with such imaginative food ideas. Normally ends up between £20 and £30 per person but so worth it.
UPDATE:
Came again 6 months later now we've moved back to the area... Still amazing food, and amazing service! Thank you to Paige who made our night! As Arnie said "I'll be back"! (Second photo is the updated one)
J. H.
A cool restaurant with amazing burgers. The Odd Future burger is a must try and same goes for the Death Row cocktail. Will be coming back here.
W. W.
The burgers are nice, I'm sure we won't see them on kitchen nightmares anytime soon, mostly because they stopped recording...
A. S.
Good quality food and great staff I will be going back 100% so many things to try and the portion for price is great if you like the look of the burger definitely try it
A. G.
These were the best burgers we have eaten in a long time, maybe ever!! The fries are amazing as well, didn’t have the cocktails but they did look good! Staff were so polite, friendly and attentive. Will definitely be coming back
A. P.
Restaurant feels very contemporary if a little dark. Could quite easily be a nite club with the sounds of house music floating around.
Staff were really friendly and attentive. There is a fast turn around but you don't feel rushed. The food itself was amazing. Dilemmas over what to order as it all sounded amazing. Chose well and came away feeling truly satisfied. Will definitely go again next time I'm in Worcester. Would recommend booking although I think walk ins are available.
An enjoyable experience all round.
K.
Amazing food! Best burgers we have ever had! Dont even think twice about going, the food, the staff and the cocktails. All 10/10!!
E. L.
Great food and drinks! Really accommodating to allergies, I have a gluten intolerance and they had a GF burger bun as an alternative, as well as an option to have oven bake chips instead of fried so there's no chance of cross contamination from the fryers. The prices were spot on for the service and food/beverages on offer. The place itself was nice and clean!
H. T.
Great service, delicious food - I didn’t expect to love a burger inside of a doughnut but I really did, it was amazing!
G. W.
LOVED! Went here today and food was incredible and the staff were all extremely accomodating and friendly.
D. K.
Food used to be better than it is now. Still enjoyed 3 out of 4 burgers last night though. My friend's burger had a completely burnt bacon inside. Some other bits of her meal was burnt too so she needed to scrape or cut off some chunks of her meal. We said this to our waiter of course but he didn't seem too bothered about it.
J. B.
The service and atmosphere are still top notch. Our waiter, Alex, was friendly knowledgeable and helpful. Started by asking about any allergies and then took our drinks orders whilst we looked at food. Our drinks arrived, with one of the cocktails being spilt a bit whilst being carried over, so had to use a napkin to mop up the glass/table. The food quality is still really really good. The bao before Christmas being a really nice special. The sides menu has been slimmed down with no Mac balls/tater tots etc. The fries have also been changed with the BBC no longer being mixed sweet potato and normal fries. The portion sizes have also been downsized over time. Still worth visiting but seemingly losing its edge a little bit.
N. P.
Great food! And I went vegan, at that! Good vibes, for a windowless space.
Not geared up for takeaway trade (unless pre-ordered?), as top quality food takes restaurant-time to arrive. Don't make my mistake and think to just nip in and pick something up on your way to catching a train!
R. E.
My favourite place to go for burgers! Hanbao has such a fun and varied menu offering every type of burger you could want (and some wild ones you didn’t know you needed). The cocktail menu is also great, this is a top date night spot!
d. m.
HANBAO food amazing service amazing our server, mixed raced lady wavey blonde hair great customer service will highly recommend dining here.
K. H.
Wow, I've heard the legend and the rumours were all true! What a fantastic venue, came here with a few friends and was not disappointed at all. The only problem you will have is chosing which amazing burger to go for.
J. D.
Great atmosphere and decor. Epic burger and the BBC loaded fries were delicious. Need to go again multiple times as there's so much good stuff on the menu!
S. E.
Such a fun experience! Great flavoured burgers, fab cocktails (loved the cherry bakewell). Also loved that they are very allergy conscious and accommodating. Special thanks to Keeley for being a super host x
T. S.
Order the Hong Kong phooey burger. Absolutely delicious! I can not find a better culturally infused burger anywhere.
All their food to a high standard as I have tried other dishes too and have always been very pleased woth their food.
The decor of the restaurant although can be seen as plain, is actually very modern and culturally reflective and works really well. Loving the entrance corridor.
J. M.
Literally our favourite burgers ever! The shaolin fries are to die for and the service is always incredible.
Especially Ruby, she was an absolute star this evening, 100% made us want to return every Friday :)
C.
Absolutely delicious, would definitely go and again and highly recommend! The mac and cheese burger was so juicy and all it's components went well together. The red sauce was slightly too tangy though. The loaded fries with chicken strips was the highlight for me, the sauce was so moreish and both the chicken and chips were fried perfectly. The wings were nice but not on the same level as the burgers and loaded fries. The mock tail was more ice than juice but still tasty.
C. J.
Been to Hanbao absolutely loads of times, never disappoints. The juicy burger (with added pulled pork) is the best burger I've ever had, plus the service is always infallible, we had Keeley tonight and she was friendly, funny and polite. World class
E. P.
Food is always delicious without a doubt. Especially the chips with bacon and cheese. Always a lively atmosphere which is great, especially on a weekend. Cocktails are great. Servers are always happy and friendly.
j. d.
Our waitress Keeley was amazing! Gave her own opinion on certain things to help me make my choice and just overall very happy and friendly! Will definitely be back :) xx
A. F. a. W. L.
"Another great visit. Speedy service, incredible food as ever! Highly recommended 👌
H. F.
THIS PLACE IS RAD! Loved it so much, been asking people to go back since. Music is ace, love restaurants that play Hip Hop! RnB and Rap! Food was incredible, so unique!
Loved the Buddha beer!
C. M. C.
Lovely food and friendly staffed. A can of doctor paper is £2.50 so pricey
K. C.
Burgers were amazing and fresh, service was very quick and the server was lovely.
Both mocktails and cocktails are fantastic, all very creative and delicious. Roof terrace is lovely too.
B. S.
Went with the children as a celebration of ending another school year. Really busy for a Wednesday evening, so there was quite a wait for food, to the point that the kids had finished their drinks and I'd drunk most of my pint. When the food arrived, it was very tasty and the skin on fries were superb. I ordered a Piggie Smalls burger but received a Hanbao burger, which was quite annoying, but only realised after I'd taken a mouthful. Still a great burger though.
d. w.
Amazing dining experience everything is fresh well presented and served with a smile. Good selection of sides and mains and beers. Cocktails are out of this world. Top staff wveryine is helpfull and polite.
L. L.
1st time going to Worcester hanbao and it was lovely . I am gf and df I ordered a burger and because I couldn't have quite a bit on it they custom made me a chicken fillet seasoned with red cabbage slaw vegan cheese and pineapple on it was lovely. The staff was polite and really friendly and we would definitely eat there again . A big shout to the chefs as the food was amazing . 👏
C. S.
The burgers are delicious! Hanbao burger has a unique taste. The charsiu sauce wasn't overpowering at all. A different take on burgers. I love it! We also ordered Ceasar's Chicken Burger. The buttermilk chicken was perfect. Again, the Ceasar sauce in the burger wasn't overpowering at all. Just perfect balance of flavour. They give great portions of burgers. Even the fries are good to share if you have a company coz, I, myself can't finished the entire thing. I also like the size of soft drinks which is big enough for £2.50. Unlike some other establishments wherein the drinks are smaller and pricier. So, hats off to Hanbao! Lovely trendy place as well. Definitely going to come back.
M. B.
If you’re after some novelty burgers, that’s the place you should definitely visit! Their doughnut burger is to die for! Also, try their wings, they’re so worth it! Not to mention cocktails 🤤
T. A.
Customer service and food absolutely amazing well done team x
I. N.
Absolutely stunning food as always. The burgers are amazing, the staff are friendly and the new location is gorgeous inside. I'd rate it 6 out of 5 if I could. I was also very impressed with the way they are dealing with the pandemic, staff seemed to be taking all necessary precautions and ordering from the table on your mobile couldn't be easier.
P.
Make sure you order some chicken wings - awesome! Was visiting my dad in worcester and my brother found this place online. The burgers were insane (Hanbao and ODB) the Miso Dirty fries were so tasty and glad I ordered some bbq wings to share as they had a light crispy batter coating before being tossed in sauce and were gorgeous. Waiters were efficient and friendly. My only criticism was the loudness of the music on a sunday night - made it hard to chat.
T. Y.
Birthday lunch for hubby thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Had a drink on the roof terrace to finish off, Lovely staff will definitely be going again.
B. R.
Burgers are out of this world, I have never tasted burgers this good anywhere else, ever Just be aware that it's quite a lively atmosphere - probably not the place to come if you sombre surroundings while you eat.
s. d.
Brilliant burgers and really lovely staff. The shaolin fries were delicious too, we'll definitely be back to try more on the menu.
S. D.
Absolutely amazing! The best food we have had in ages whilst eating out. We visited a few years back and have always intended on going back. The place looks insane too, we plan on visiting the roof terrace next time.
S. S. K.
Good restaurant, but just trying a bit too hard. I think the novelty factor would wear off very quickly and most of the burgers on the menu I'm sure you would only try once.
I enjoyed my burger and the sides were interesting, but again, good food doesn't have to be outlandish.
The feel of the place is like a nightclub and it has a very trendy vibe, a little dark on the lighting, but an enjoyable experience. Staff very friendly and attentive.
E. P.
Was comparing this to “the beefy boys” in Hereford and I have to say that first impression from walking through the door to the smallest decorations on the wall this place really is a sick place to eat or even just chill. With an upstairs outside eating area and bar this place is an amazing place to eat. Food was amazing, burger was on par with beefy boys however fries where not as good (still very nice).
L. P.
Came here with a friend on a Sunday afternoon. Treated myself to their chicken waffle burger with shared sides of Shaolin fries and BBQ wings. We both struggled to get through the food! My burger was huge - dripping with syrup! Tasted so good but what a challenge for me to finish 😂. We really enjoyed our meals and would definitely recommend the place (though please switch from pepsi to coke?).
S. M.
Never been before....quite expensive but my god worth every penny. If you like a good burger then you will not be disappointed.
L. H.
Shake and Bake Cocktail is a dessert sensation in a glass, delicious. I had the Odd Future Burger and shared the BBC Fries with my partner. The burger was quite simply a culinary masterpiece. The best burger I have EVER had. We are looking forward to returning to sample more on the menu. Service 10/10. Atmosphere 10/10.
M.
We were served by Alex, friendly, polite and great service. Burgers, chips and wings were obscenely good and still had leftovers to take home
J.
We’ve wanted to try Hanbao for ages. Always see the posts on Instagram! Finally got a table of 8 together and couldn’t fault it. Atmosphere is great. Waiting staff attentive and fun, service was fast and the food was insane. Only bad part was choosing which burger to have.
Mac ball side dish was amazing. Fries were next level and the burger was to die for. It’s an hour from us but we will back for sure!!!
Only thing I would like to see is more choice at their dessert shop/venture next door (Icebao). Bit pricy with not much choice. Still didn’t put a dampener on our time in hanbao though. Thank you!
A. C.
Don't eat many burgers, but probably the best I've ever tasted. Had the Hanbao burger, delicious, service good too from a lovely young lady
S. O.
Best burger I've eaten in my life...period! Side dishes were pretty amazing too.
Burger wise I had the Philly Cheese Steak, cooked perfectly and the flavours were amazing. My friend had the Mac & Cheese which came with a Mac and Cheese Ball on top. The Mac and Cheese was perfect and I'll be ordering the Mac and Cheese balls as a side next time!
Side dish wise, between us we had the Pork Belly bites which just melted in your mouth and the chicken wings which were nice and crunchy on the outside with the most tender meat that just fell off the bone!
Can't wait to go back!
C. M.
BEST BURGER EVERRRRR! I had their signature burger. Never had anything like it (the one with the sauce all over it) shaolin fries my husband desperately wanted to try and we wanted to share. I was a sceptic but gave in and let him chose them. I didn't think they would be my thing but I LOVED them. So creative. Great place to go. Book ahead though!
A. E.
Amazing food, great service. Struggled to hear a bit with the acoustics in the restaurant but the staff were very patient with me. Can't wait to go back.
Z. S.
We’ve been to Hanbao and hand full of times now and the service is great the food is great I could not recommend this restaurant to anyone enough. Big shoutout to our servers Jess and Keeley who made our experience the best as always. Thanks again guys we shall be back! see you again very soon
P. S.
I couldn't tell you how many times I've been here now, but their menu is fantastic!
Great selection of different burgers and their sides are amazing!
When I go it's usually because of one of their 'special' limited time burgers so I rarely eat from the main menu!
Can't fault the overall vibe of the place either.
G. P.
The burger (Jamaican) was very nice and the allergy menu was one of the best I had seen. The chips weren’t cooked through so we’re not enjoyable. The menu sounds a lot better than it actually is, a good concept with average execution.
T. F.
Has become my go-to restaurant in Worcester. The food is awesome and reasonably priced, the staff are excellent and the gloves a game changer, I've never had a bad meal there. My only complaint is they seem to have got rid of the online/mobile queuing system which was super convenient and practical especially at peak times when the wait times can be looong. Still deserved of 5 stars though through the food alone!
L. L.
Our third Valentine's visit to you guys and you did not disappoint! Best burger yet 😍 'Caesars Palace' It's great to see you have also extended and got bigger. A camembert burger should be next 🐷 Definitely recommend Hanbao! Good food, drinks and atmosphere.
J. S.
I can honestly say, I have never had a better burger in my life. It Was juicy, every flavour note could be tasted, it wasn't greasy and the names were on point. The only downside to the burger is that it was too tall, so I had to deconstruct a little. This is hardly an issue though.
As for the sides, they were just like the burger. Well made, well presented and mouth watering. If there is only two of you, one side is enough but I would recommend getting one each, so you can experience more of the menu.
The cocktails, they were well presented, made with care and fines and were just as enjoyable as the food. The staff were great and knew all about what they served and so I can not fault this place. I will be back for sure.
If you are in a group of 6, you can book a table bit for smaller groups it's first come first serve. If there are no tables free, you can enjoy a drink at the bar or in the seating areas. Don't worry though, it's very much worth the wait.
It's well located for people travelling by train as it is very close to Forget a Street station
G. B.
Burgers were good if not life changing, the easiest way to describe it was like a step up from a five guys. The Fries on the other hand WERE lifechanging. Surprised by the limited choice of the beer too. The building was undergoing work but the space was really cool and felt very chic.
Would definitely go back just for the fries.
S. W.
Food was absolutely amazing. It was rather pricey, but for the portion size and how nice the food was, I'd happily pay that and would come back again!
Been there on a separate occasion for cocktails and they are great too! The Bakewell Tart one is probably the nicest alcoholic drink I've ever had!
R. G.
Will not find a better burger place than here! Food is perfection! Been plenty of times has never disappointed, plenty of choice on the menu too The upstairs terrace area is also great, outdoor heating too!
R. M.
Super tasty burgers and sides with good sized portions. Lots of different burger options on the menu. Good venue open 7 days a week with really friendly staff. Would definately go back for more.
李.
Decent burgers, unfortunately the fried chicken was a bit dry. Chips are tasty, well seasoned. Staffs are very friendly and welcoming.
K. D.
Fantastic place for a burger fix and the rest!! Great selection of drinks from the beers to the cocktails. The venue has a great vibe and music on point! All in all..7/10
D. W. (.
Best sides
Pretty Sarn good burger. But the best sides I've had. The mac and cheese balls were excellent.
J. B.
burgers & wings to die for. staff are ace. very cool decor. place to go in Worcester 🍔💯
J. B.
Came here for my birthday meal today, lovely food and excellent service, well worth the price with great portion sizes too! Happy fellow joint birthday to L (don't want to name you for your own privacy) who served us!
Great vibes all around!
n.
Food was absolutely superb and not overly pricey, decent portion sizes and the burgers cooked to perfection. The waiting staff have their finger on the pulse too which seems to be rare these days. it's the simple things that make a difference, like remembering who ordered what and noticing when a drinks refill might be needed. Would definitely revisit.
J.
One of the best burgers in Worcester. I love the theme of the burgers paying homage to mainly old hip hop tracks/artists (The notorious B.I.G, Wu-tang clan etc) and more new artist/tracks (Odd future, A$AP Ferg, Big Shaq).
The food is really good quality and seems like a great place to start a Friday night out in terms of food and cocktails.
While the price is at a premium for the meal, it is still an independent business, which I'm willing to support. It has now been one of the main reasons for myself to come to Worcester and I cannot recommend it enough.
C. H.
Hanbao is hands down my favourite burger joint around! The burgers, the set up, the atmosphere. Everything is just so good! Reccomend this place to everyone! It's a must visit!
S. B.
Great food, location is perfect - right in the centre of town.
M. G.
If you are ever in Worcester you have to go here.
By far the best ever burger I have had.
Staff were so welcoming, warm and very helpful. They all went out of their way to even accommodate our 2 year old daughter.
Can not recomend enough. The restaurant was busy even 45 mins after they opened at 12 lunch time, but they have plenty of space inside or out.
This is my new go to place
S. J.
Wonderful food, pleasent service and we'll presented. Nice way to finish a day by the river in Worcester. Hope you enjoy your day
P. S.
This place is up there with the best Burgers I've ever had. Service was friendly and quick. Food was fresh off the grill. Absolutely delicious. Will be back.
J. D.
We live in Australia 🇦🇺 and we went for burgers here... The burgers were mouth watering and the loaded fries... Oh my God! Were divine. My son had the piggy smalls and he said it was the best burger he's ever tasted. The venue is super cool too with great customer service.
T. R.
There’s a point at which quality of food completely outweighs the calorific content! This was worth every penny and every calorie. Cocktails were amazing and the staff couldn’t have been more attentive
L.
I love the ambient, music, food, attention of the staff
Awesome place
I can't wait to try hanbao at Birmingham
T. 8.
From the food to the service would recommend hanbao to anyone!
Best burger I've had!
T.
Probably one of the best burgers I've ever had, great presentation and nothing bad to say about the service. Even on a Saturday lunchtime we got in easily despite not being able to book. I expect a night time would be a different story as there was never an empty table around us.
Highly recommended.
M. M.
Really cool quirky burger bar with Eastern influences. Really really tasty food, great atmosphere. Would be good for a group of friends, or maybe a date of 2 foodies. Lovely cocktails, the express yourself cocktail was a particular favourite of mine!
H. L.
Very limited options for vegetarians/vegans, with just one double patty burger and plain fries on the menu. That being said it was a very tasty burger and fries, but the fact that the burger was called 'hard to please' felt a bit off. It's clear Hanbao are more about their meat which is fine, but I felt they could have done more by giving choice to cater for those who can't/choose not to eat meat.
K.
I love Hanbao. It’s such an underrated place. The food is unreal!
A. B.
Let's start with the negatives. Recommend getting 5+ together so you can book. 4 of us rocked up at 8pm on a Wednesday and didn't sit until 9.30pm. Not a massive issue as we were told an hour to 75mins wait.
Positives: the food, the food, the food....did I say the food. Had a WR1, with ol' dirty fries which were fantastic and worth the wait. Service was good. Definitely recommend it.
J. W.
We last came here 8 years ago and we came all the way from Cumbria to come back again and the food is as good, if not better! Definitely one to try as the Hanbao burger is incredible!
Z. J.
I love this place food was amazing and so were staff. Try it you won't be disappointed
M. f.
Awesome chips the best I ve ever had and the burgers are massive
M. B.
Wicked place, great staff and food is amazing!
J. P.
Fantastic meal, probably the best burger I have ever eaten and will definitely be returning for more! Staff were very welcoming, friendly and attentive.
E. l.
I had the mac and cheese burger and pork belly bites, both of which were extremely good. I would advise booking a table if there's more than 4 of you as they only have about 2 tables that can seat more than 4.
B. M.
Quite literally the best burger I have ever had. They even do gluten free options too which made it even better. Will be back very soon!
V. L.
Wow never been here before but it was great lads behind the bar were amazing funny polite and know what they are doing. Service was fantastic drinks and food brilliant
L. E.
Delicious menu and great staff. Music was a bit too loud to talk though
L. P.
Can’t praise our server Keeley enough, courteous, friendly and attentive all whilst clearly working very hard across the restaurant. A credit to her profession unlike another very arrogant and off putting male server.
R. M.
Awesome as always! Best burgers, amazing fries! Can't wait to come again!
J. C.
Great Asian themed burgers, all with an interesting twist, served in a steamer. Service is good, the vibe is chilled and the decor is cool. Only real downside is the wait for a table because the place is so popular.
P. B.
Amazing burger, great venue, would seriously recommend this place to burger enthusiasts.
E.
Lovely food and really amazing staff. I’m Paige was extremely friendly, helpful, and looked after us very well. Thank you.
M. L.
Amazing food, will come back again
C. F.
Delicious burgers, amazing cocktails!! Lovely staff
A. G.
A little on the noisy side but good fast service and a great tasting burger. Fries were overly salty.
P. R.
The best Burger in my life!
My favourite is Goldie cocktail, OBD burger and Hot Hot chicken wings…
J. H.
Popped in for lunch after a recommendation from a friend. Will definitely come again as I need to try all the other burgers 🤤
B. G.
Food is banging and the drinks are good the bar staff are the best tbf gotta give it to them probably a 3-4 star without them so FairPlay as it’s expensive
D. X.
Good food but pricey. Also must have been asked about 3-4 times if everything was fine and if we wanted anything else...
J. S.
Banging burgers, would recommend. Next time I'll smash through the great looking cocktail list
L. S.
Amazing food as always. Won't go anywhere else on Worcester for a burger. We are not from the area but we make a day outing of it. Worth traveling an hour for !
H. R.
Very nice staff, food good but its a very dark and depressing place need something to brighten it. Roof top should be open all hours not just weekend
A. M.
possibly the best burger joint I've ever been to, the food and hospitality is incredible, food portions are massive and the taste of the food is delicious 😋 🤤 I highly recommend this place 👏 👏
C. B.
Visited with my husband and son and all of us were extremely impressed by the food and excellent service we received from Keeley. Would highly recommend😊😋
K. P.
Amazing food and cocktails. Lots of choice, friendly helpful staff and would definitely return.
E. W.
Amazing place! Highly recommend. Super staff and the food is legit to die for!! There needs to be more of them, in all honesty. Cannot get enough of the Odd Future burger and the BBC fries!!
G. m. g.
Great food and drinks. Really enjoyed the time there. Varieties to choose from. Amazing starters as well.
H. S.
Best burgers ever! Nice vibe too and some good beers.
K. L.
Great burgers and fries etc with fascinating Asian twist and plenty of different drinks. Large portions - I couldn't finish mine. Staff are really great and helpful. I'll definitely go back when I have the chance!
W. C.
I took my two children last week as it was the 14yr olds birthday. It was his suggestion and I’m glad I listened to him. The premises itself is great , modern and a nice feel to it. I wasn’t overly excited about going for a burger however I was really impressed with the food. We all agreed they were the best burgers we had ever had and the Miso dirty fries are to die for. Very enjoyable and the food was so tasty, we will definitely be going back , thoroughly recommended! The staff were great too .
O. Y.
really good food, nice cocktails but really i Would like to commend Paige for the best customer service!
S. M.
Good "healthy" food. Vegetarian and vegan options available. Mac & Cheese optimal . Friendly service and authentic menu, decoration and presentation.
Ideal location
J. P.
Amazing burgers and sides! Highly recommended the piggie smalls burger and shaolin chips
B. I.
Food and Service was great. Generous portions of very tasty and original food, great drinks served by friendly and attentive staff. Music is a touch loud, especially tables around the edge of the main room but not a massive issue.
K. O.
The food is amazing and I was pleasantly surprised about the veggie and vegan option one question for my boys is anything halal on the menu ?
S. J.
I think my servers name was Keira it was something along those lines. It was her third shift yesterday and she absolutely smashed it! Her customer service was phenomenal and she really went out of her way to make sure everything was okay with out meals and even engaged in general conversation with us which gives the personal touch. I haven't visited the restaurant since I used to work in the kitchen and was very impressed. Thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Also would like to say the guy at the front door was absolutely amazing managing to squeeze me and my friend in as a walk in despite being fully booked, I forgot to get his name but thank you both for an amazing service!
L. H.
Delicious food and great customer service. Innovative design, somewhere a bit different to go. Really liked the way the food was served and the cocktails were nice too!
M. M.
Good standard of meat, excellent choice of burgers, great sauces. Slightly minimalist -functional decor. Good value. Decent service. Probably catering for younger people and families, but just right for a quick meal before leaving from the station one minute away
A. B.
One of the best cheese burgers to date... the food was all delicious. Make sure to book as it is very popular. Service was friendly and fun. Cant wait to go back. Very grown up and funky, could be a bit too loud for small children
G. B.
The best burgers and fries. Extremely inventive and beautifully made. Each burger seems to be treated with the same 100 attention to detail as the last. Exemplary establishment. You must try the cocktails to accompany your meal. There are some truly wonderful creations to suit ever palette
D. F.
Independent burger restaurant and cocktail bar with a very cool restaurant interior and some awesome burger combos. Everything comes in dim sum baskets and there are some really interesting options such as mac and cheese balls on the burgers glazed donuts and other seemingly odd toppings that actually all work really well. The fries are also nice and come with toppings too. Loses a star as they don't do deserts but all else is great. Definitely worth checking out.
J. O.
Always the most delicious food and fab cocktails; very attentive friendly service too. My go to place whenever I get the chance to eat out!
N. R.
Awesome food great service and a fun atmosphere. Food is so well cooked and presented. Cocktails on the terrace to finish.
E.
Amazing food, bit pricey but soooooo worth it. I reccomend trying the wings they are heavenly
D. B.
The food is amazing, especially the BBQ wings but be prepared to wait for the pleasure, as we waited 90 mins! Perfect place for couples or groups of friends. Great playlist as well if you are into old school Hip Hop and R&B. Would recommend the Mai Tais as they live up to the name 😊
M.
Delicious. Looking forward to the Birmingham restaurant opening
R. G.
This place does the best burgers I have ever had. Will definitely be back soon!!
K. P.
The food was awesome. The staff were really nice. I felt a little old in there, but that wouldn't put me off at all.
S. W.
Really good food, nice cocktails as well and the terrace is a nice feature.
J. C.
Really good food but I feel like the cheesy duz it could be a bit bigger but other than that best place I’ve been too
M. S.
Came here ages ago and loved it, however they've slightly changed the layout, bought the premise next door and changed the entrance which was a little confusing as you walk through a bar now... Anyway, the menu was quite broad however there was only 1 vegan/veggie option which is a bit ridiculous to be honest. The burger too wasn't amazing (feels like they more focus on the meat eaters) and the price didn't match the quality of it. The cocktails were nice though. Overall it was a shame.
C. J.
Fantastic choice of burgers and sides! Will definitely be going back! And as for the rooftop terrace... WOW!!!
E.
The food here is incredible, make sure you don't eat much earlier in the day so you've got space
S. S.
Food is just incredible. Service is 5 stars. Would go again repeatedly 👍
K. H.
First visit today and will definitely be going back, we were greeted by friendly, smiling staff who seated us very quickly. Our drinks and food were served quickly. Definitely worth a visit
K. M.
Had food and cocktails for the first time yesterday was great! 😁 and I will definitely be going back!! 😁 friendly service and nice atmosphere and food was 💯👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
S. D.
This place is amazing. Food is delicious and staff are very helpful. As a fussy eater myself the fries are amazing and the burgers looked delightful. Can't recommend this place enough
r. d.
Amazing! Totally underestimated the size of the sides so ordered too much food but it was nice to try some different flavours. Will Defiantly be returning.
L. B.
Amazing, unique food. Burgers are astounding, the sides are amazing and the service is too tier. Could not recommend this place enough. A must visit.
D. B.
Burgers are good , fries are amazing. Nice friendly staff
C. L.
Amazing food and amazing staff, just the waiting is a bit long given the time frame you're given, however the wait is worth it 😍
N. T.
Unreal burgers & sides - good enough that I just had sides last time. Happy to see this place doing well & expanding!
T.
Went in for drinks at the worcester location, really nice experience. Got served by the cute gay bartende.
R. C.
Amazing Burgers! But not 'just' burgers!! great Service Lively place - but very busy be prepared to wait!
G. K.
The best burger you'll have outside a food festival- provided you don't mind something a little different! The cocktails are the MVP that pushes it above other excellent burger establishments.
M. T.
Very nice food good prices good service from staff would recommend enjoyable evening
R. J.
Good food, but decorated like the future zone of the Crystal maze! Baconnaise chips was a surprising hit, although mixed chips were better. Well worth a visit if you fancy a change from GBK
P. M.
Very tasty burgers I warmly recommend.
S.
Place with the tastiest sides, good drinks and juicy burgers.
Great staff and overall vibe
G. G.
Very personable waitress, excellent customer service and felt trendy / eating in a nightclub. Food delicious and large portion sizes. Maybe a treat rather than a regular visit. Big tables available for 6+ so plenty of elbow room, not squeezed together like some other restaurants.
S. M.
Amazing food and cocktails are lush, fantastic service, really great atmosphere and the place is stunning, will definitely come back!
B. R.
If you like burgers that are all about the weird and wonderful then this is the place for you sat on the roof and it was really cool super chill and bonus points for the 80s 90s hip hop playing
R. D.
Can't go wrong with Hanbao. The rooftop terrace is just stunning.
A. W.
Great selection of burgers and sides. Great service
P. S.
Came in when relitvely quiet, bar man served people that obviously came in after us first which was a bit annoying. Wine was a good price...due to a private party blocking the way the walk to the toilets was a mission
A.
Food was amazing.. Good options on the menu, the selection of dirty fries is really good aswell. Something for everyone.. Drinks menu was good and the staff were great...setting and atmosphere were 👌 music was banging, take away the tables and food and you've got yourself a rave. Defo visit again.
M. J.
Fantastic atmosphere, very attentive staff, great meal and reasonably priced, highly recommended
A. J.
It’s so cool here and the food is honestly out of this world. It’s a little loud sometimes but you get used to it really quick and the servers are some of the friendliest people ever.
S. M.
Great food, great service, great atmosphere... You get the picture..
C. “.
Awesome place, food good, nice cocktails and lovely staff 😋
V. B.
Brilliant service, really creative menu and delicious combinations, would highly recommend
B. Y.
As a vegetarian, it feels odd to be appreciating a burger venue, but they do a lovely vegan-based burger, the "Even Harder to Please." You can also request to swap-in a vegan pattie in many of the other burger options (obviously, there are some burgers where you just couldn't do this).
The staff are always so friendly and helpful and seem to be enjoying their job - which shows that the management team must be doing something right. It's always so very busy there, though, so I'd always advise booking ahead!
Admittedly, I wouldn't go there if it wasn't for my partner and other close friends who enjoy the meat-based burgers, but only because of my opinions about farming animals for consumption etc. Anyway... you didn't come here for a lecture; yes, I do recommend this place, but I advise you to order the plant-based pattie!! Haha
D. D.
I have been coming here for years and I can honestly say they have never disappointed! Food is always excellent, lots of choice, great flavours and interesting new ideas. A personal favourite is the Philly Cheese burger and Mac Balls side! Recently just had a takeaway from here and the packaging it came in was such good quality that everything was still perfectly in place and easy to take out. It can't be cheap but it makes a massive difference to people who are getting take out in comparison to other takeaway places - will definitely do it more often! (Have even saved the sauce pots to reuse at home!)
Thank you for never disappointing guys! :)
V. B.
The best place to have a cheat day, overindulgence at its finest, love the burgers and the cocktails, great for a date night, but do recommend booking and on the weekends getting there early to ensure you get a table!
S. “. W.
Amazing burgers, cocktails and service 🤩🤩🤩
R. B.
Really good food, I had a Piggie Smalls with BBC (chips). The staff were excellent, they were very friendly and welcoming. What really made me happy, was when the one staff member went out of his way to look after my girlfriend as she is gluten intolerant. We both had a fantastic time and we shall be going again.
N. O.
We have particular dietary requirements. The staff were so helpful they could not have done more!
However without the sauces the food was pretty bland.
It was a very young person environment and very popular on Saturday lunchtime.
R. R.
really good service and wonderful food, recoment the odd future burger. Only issie was a large group of young lads came in and were very noisy. We asked if we could move. Which they did without issue. Really lovely night out.
T. D. D.
Amazing tasty food... Great service and a very chilled out atmosphere! Fab Sunday 😁
C. P.
Been several times over the years and it just keeps getting better.
They really need to bring back the Mac balls though!!
J. S.
Spent most of my wages here on lockdown takeaways and went for a lovely meal at the restaurant last week. The terrace is beautiful with amazing vibes, our food was quick and just tasted amazing. You must have a cocktail with your food as they are so inventive! Have loved hanbao since the day it opened and still love it now. Well done
A. R.
Awesome burger. Pricey as you have to order fries etc as an extra. Up to £15 for a burger. Very interesting selection. Had the odd future burger which came in a glazed donut rather than a bun. Excellent cooking and great flavour combination. Mixed fries were really fresh and hot. Slow service to pay the bill. Ended up leaving cash and going as waitress never came back. Also she didn't acknowledge us as we left or thanked us when we said keep the change.
e. v.
Delicious burger and very cool place, highly recommended.
A. T.
Perfect service and food well done guys
J. B.
An utterly fabulous addition to the Worcester restaurant scene. Juicy patties, intriguing topping combos and banging fries.
J. N.
Visit this place recently with the family, great food and service didn't
A. W.
Fantastic establishment with incredible staff and amazing food! Visited on multiple occasions and until recently have always been blown away by the qualtiy of food and service.
Had one visit which fell below their usual standard BUT the aftercare, genuine concern and ammends making of the team really displayed that this is a company to be trusted and where you are indeed a valued customer whose thoughts and comments are valued.
The way they handled a situation where everything was not perfect shows what a brilliant company this is, and that the good food, good service, etc is not by chance, but because they invest all of themselves into being the best they can be and always looking to improve.
M. M.
Great Burgers. Awesome Cocktails. Friendly Staff.
P. D.
Great selection of burgers. Some of the combinations are really unique. Definitely recommended.
D. P.
Myself and my wife had a take out tonight for her birthday. Food was delicious 10/10!! Simple and easy to order and collect at your allocated time slot. Staff friendly upon arrival. Couldn’t ask for anything more. Highly recommend.
A. H.
Ate here tonight and there was around 20 of us. Customer service is outstanding and the burgers are of the best quality I’ve ever eaten, very accommodating even though they wasn’t expecting so many people to turn up out of the blue. The area upstairs is also amazing with plenty of seats outside, cocktails are out of this world (although pricey) they are well worth every penny. Waitresses were amazing and polite, also the manager (female) I think was outstanding. Would definitely recommend this place and we will all be returning when we next have a family get together.....
Fantastic food, service was quite quick... thanks guys we really appreciate what you did for all of us this evening. We were the last ones to leave.
Keep up the outstanding work.......
Adam
C. S.
A fantastic selection of food and some very unique flavour combinations. There's a great atmosphere and the roof garden area is very pleasant to sit in. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to try something new.
G. I. M.
Chilled out atmosphere, friendly and attentive staff. All the food I had was first rate. Chicken wings were fantastic, burger was delicious and I almost couldn't finish the chips. Nice beer too. Best meal I've had in a long time. I'll be back.
J. K.
Great food, great atmosphere and friendly staff. Expensive option but worth it if you want a best of the best burger.
P. C.
The food here is excellent, the service was unfortunately slow and disorganised which was very disappointing, staff were pleasant enough but overall not too pleased.
A. O.
It was our first time at Hanbao Worcester and it didn't disappoint. We were required to pre book due to the current guidelines but we picked the 19.45 slot so that we made the full use of our time. As the time slots are (90mins). After arriving we were shown to our table on the huge roof terrace, some areas are heated and some aren't. The waiter left us with the menu to let us decide. There's about ten different burger choices including two for veggies/vegans. The waiter allowed us to switch things in/out from our burger order like an extra mac'n'cheese patty. There's a some loaded fries to choose from and also some chicken wings sides. It all arrived in good time and I have to say everything was top notch. The cocktails are also very good although I would say a little too sweet for myself. Very good service from the friendly staff and all in all a great night. Thanks Team Hanbao
B. D.
Got horribly lost trying to find the restaurant and was late by 20 mins but wasnt an issue. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. The food was amazing, restaurant had a great atmosphere and I cant wait to go back.
R. M.
What a great concept. Burgers are out of the norm, fantastic choice from original patties to outrageously bonkers with lucky charms and pop tarts added.
Good choice of beers from other regions of the world. Staff are extremely friendly, polite and courteous. Establishment brand new and spotless. A well worth visit as an alternative meal.
B. G.
Travelled all the way from Birmingham for these best burgers you'll try 😍
C.
Best burgers around!
Menu is a little smaller than it used to be.
S.
Ordered online for collection due to the current climate (lockdown- very clean and strict procedures in place which was impressive) & OMG it was the best burger I’ve ever eaten! I had ‘Cheezy Duz It’ because I love pickles & honestly this burger did not disappoint. I haven’t got one negative word about the food or online service! I haven’t had a burger like that since I was in US- 100000% recommend if you want proper burgers & flavors! I’m super excited to visit the restaurant when it’s permitted to open! Thank you xo
W. V. 3.
A rather wonderful independent Burger bar thats’s a bit different to the norm. We had a works lunch here and had heard great things about this place. We were not disappointed. The best burgers in Worcester with a wide range of combinations to suit every taste. It can get busy here so may be work booking.
A. T.
Came for my birthday, left full and happy!
Burgers here are incredible, can't wait to go back.
C. T.
Amazing bar and restaurant, nice veggie and vegan options. Book online for food so you can guarantee a table.
R. F.
Fantastic burgers, not a regular burger, a work of art. The cocktails are spot on too. Staff are also fantastic, one of the best places in Worcester
V.
Went for my daughters 7th birthday meal...they made her a special birthday mocktail! Food was amazing!! Servers were lovely, felt really looked after.
A. N.
Totally amazing food. Not your average gourmet burger joint.
These guys keep pushing the boundaries of how much depth of taste can go into a burger and we keep on coming back to enjoy!
Great cocktails and beer also - what's left to say. Handsoap in the toilets is awesome also
R. P.
Extremely tasty food. Had the Hanbao burger with the mixed chips and it was beautifully cooked. The chair I was sat on was a little uncomfortable as I was in a dress and the chair was made of round metal bars. Once I used my jacket as a cushion it was fine but this is definitely something to be aware of. The service was very friendly and quick considering the restaurant was reasonably busy for a Sunday evening.
I would recommend booking in advance.
L. H.
Easily the most amazing burger selection I have ever witnessed, you won't need to order any fries unless you have a large appetite. No matter what you order you won't be disappointed and I'll be sure to keep going back to try many more. A fantastic selection of cocktails and an awesome trendy vibe really sets the place apart and makes it perfect to visit for lunch, dinner or a night out.
A.
Wow!! First time of eating here. Lovely food, great cocktails.
S. S.
Very unique burger restaurant, some amazing concoctions to choose from including the one I went for a glazed donut based burger.
Actually tasted nothing like I expected and worked really well. Good choice of freshly prepared cocktails. Would recommend to anyone who wants a new take on a burger joint.
s. t.
Absolutely lovely food! Very tasty. Looking forward to going back 😀
O.
Great burgers, very unusual flavours. It's better to share sides as burgers are very filling. The service was slightly slow on the day but was pleasant visit in the end. Food is totally worth it.
Z. P.
Been a few times, the burgers are a little gimmicky. The blend they use is tasty but every time I have gone the meat has been over seasoned. 3 stars from me.
s. d.
Great burgers and the fries were amazing.
A.
Food was very different and tasted amazing. Not just your average burger joint
G. S.
Amazing food, great service, cool place ✌🏻🖤
J. K.
Firstly let me start by saying me and my partner enjoyed the food tremendously! The burgers were incredible, the waffle fries were amazing and for the portion size it was definitely value for money.
However, the fact they do not take bookings is extremely inconvenient as in order to have a wait time less than an hour you would need to turn up as soon as they open! I do understand this as I presume the have this system to ensure people spend more money on drinks and cocktails (which were delicious by the way) but I did get the feeling we were only there to give them money and that was the main goal.
Secondly the area in which you eat is just an all round horrible experience! It is a black room with a few bulbs hung from the ceiling, jam packed with tables to fit as many in as they possibly can. We happened to visit on a particularly warm evening which I understand may be problematic but it was sweltering in there - no ventilation at all (spare a couple of overworked fans). The heavy rap and hip hop music was being blasted through the speakers making it impossible for me and my partner to hold a conversation.
Overall, if bookings were available and perhaps a more comfortable and relaxed dining area was provided I would be rushing here every weekend to fill up on good food and cocktails but sadly I don't think I will be returning while it continues in this state.
L. H.
Amazing food. The menu is unique fun tasty and on trend!
P. B.
Best burger I had for a years. Highly recommended

Nut Allergy - Great Service
I've been to Hanbao many times and love everything about it, and so we decided to order from their click and collect menu for a special occasion.
One of our party has a severe nut allergy, and Hanbao were really great in accommodating this. Each item we ordered was prepared, cooked and even packaged in a separate nut-free area, making for an enjoyable evening knowing that there was nothing to worry about.
Great service and will definitely be ordering again, and visiting the restaurant once it has reopened. Many thanks all!
S. D.
A really eccletic selection of burgers. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our food with her saying it was the best burger she's ever had... The staff were really friendly and made us feel comfortable even with a one year old in tow (they have high chairs). I probably didn't need the bacon and cheese covered fries to go with my burger but I just about managed to force it all down. Would definitely go back if I'm ever in the area again.
h. d.
Amazing variation of burgers and snacks 🥰
O. S.
Good vegetarian burger! Would come back at some point. Only downside was toilet housekeeping and the location of our table (right by the open kitchen which meant we were not too comfortable and left smelling like food). Staff were nice and attentive. Nice food presentation
F. T.
Went with friends and absolutely loved it. Great food, great service and a really cool interior. Not sure how many times I'll be back as I'm vegetarian and although the veggie option was delicious, I wouldn't want the same thing over and over again. My friends are all meat eaters and loved their burgers, they can't wait to go back, a great new place for Worcester!
B. 3. d.
Trendy place for food and drinks with friends, great food and nice selection of cocktails
M. A.
Always delicious. Cocktails are superb. The specials are so good I occasionally feel bad for eating them as they are a work of art. The feeling soon passes though. My advice. Once you have picked the burger up dont put it back down.
C. G.
Entrance to the seating area is so trippy! Great decor and feel throughout.
Loved the food. Good burgers and sides. Attentive and helpful staff. All very reasonably priced. Will be visiting again in future.
J. P. M.
Arrived at 7.30pm having been told we couldn't book in advance, only to be told we'd be waiting over an hour and should've booked! Just about to give up and leave when we got a table miraculously. The food, however, was absolutely amazing. Had the Mac Daddy Kane with Shaolin fries - probably the best burger I've tasted. Definitely worth a visit but book before you go despite what they say to you on the phone.
S. L.
Visited today for my son’s birthday which the manager who saw us to the table asked whose birthday it was . We were seated and served cocktails and ordered food by Dan who was a very cheerful and polite young man . Cocktails were really good , The Manager brought the food out and I asked her for some more cocktails we ate our meals then 20 minutes later still had no drinks I asked dan where they were and the Manager had forgotten so I cancelled them and got the bill , poor Dan had to apologise on her behalf which for a manager is appalling, the atmosphere is good just poor service very disappointed as it was my sons birthday.
S. K.
Amazing food lovely service amazing drink selection, it's just the waiting time that's so long but it's worth the wait
O. S.
It's a nice restaurant that's fairly pricey but is good quality, really not many vegan and veggie options which is disappointing and the vegan burger was okay but a little mushy. The interior has clearly had a lot of thought put into it and it's nice but very dark. It's a good restaurant and the staff are very friendly and helpful however there are nicer places to eat out in Worcester that are also cheaper
A. K.
Burger, chips and cocktails were great . Chicken wings tasted like they were coated in batter which wasn't to my taste but my friend loved them. Will definitely go again. Highly recommend
b. b.
Excellent food the only thing they could do to make the experience superb is put a finger bowl out as after you've eaten the wings and fries ure fingers get very sticky
R.
Fantastic service, couldn't have asked for better and they didn't mind us hanging around for ages as we recovered from our food comas 😜
L. S.
Even though we had to wait 90mins to be seated on a Saturday it was well worth the wait. Burgers were immense and soooooo tasty. Wings were perfection, oh so delicious and the cocktails were amazing. The surroundings are cool and really relaxed. It's a must visit if you're in Worcester. Oh and the play list is awesome.
J. C.
One of the best burgers I've ever had. Fries were heavily seasoned though, almost too much, but didn't impact the meal. Cool outdoor terrace upstairs.
M. H.
Amazing food, well worth a visit. Incredibly long wait to be seated over weekend periods due to a booking policy that needs review. Great new refurbishment with the roof terrace, but the front bar now has the feeling of a detention centre/holding bay when busy!
R.
Went here as it was hyped up as being a lovely place to eat with a good atmosphere. If I'm honest, alot of that is true, it had good food and a good atmosphere. However, as I will explain in more detail later, the 'scene' and prices can put people off.
Pros:
- Good tasting food, made with decent ingredients.
- Good drink selection on tap and off tap.
- Located in a good location next too a fair few bars.
- Good atmosphere in the dining area
Cons:
- Food, for what it is, is expensive. Granted it tasted lovely however, £10 for a single patty(ed) burger with no additional side is disappointing. And as many people have also said cheaper can be found for similar quality.
- Although I liked the atmosphere and decor, it is dark with lighting at the entrance I have only seen at laser quest arenas.
- for a restaurant I would say it was quite small, cramped even.
Overall: 6/10
'I'd probably go back if I was going out with a large group as a Christmas 'do' - however, not regularly.
Conclusion;
Although the prices are high and the food didnt agree with me (No need to expand) I would suggest people give the restaurant a try. I'm fair with how I rate establishments and I feel to give this a fair review I need to visit it in 6 months time to which I will update this review.
Again, this is a very marmite restaurant, it's a 'hippy' trendy bar in which people may not like. However this does not take away from the service in which they like most establishments do as a given.
M. S.
Visited with 5 friends, we all enjoyed our burgers and service was good. The burger I had (ODB) was tasty and quality, but perhaps a little more mustardy than your standard gormet burger. The restaurant itself is quite 'different'. Very dark with Japanese motifs about the place. More like a nightclub than a restaurant so perhaps a better bet for an evening meal rather than during the day.
R. P.
Great place even under current restrictions. Food is just amazing. Highly recommend the MacDaddy Kane and Piggie Smalls burgers. Loaded waffle fries are lovely. Worth making an effort to visit.

The burgers for meat eaters are brilliant, great flavours and very generous portions. The vegetarian options are pretty poor. There is one vegetarian burger that's quite ridiculously named 'hard to please' coinciding it's just a falafel burger. As much as I enjoyed my food it's disappointing I can't go back with my veggie wife or friends due to really limited options. Also, a side salad wouldn't go amiss. That said if you like burgers and love meat, this is the place to go.

Food was absolutely amazing, everything was 10/10 that we ordered. I will say - I thought the service was a little slow it took a while for them to come over for our drink orders and by the time they did we had already decided what we wanted, then it took a good 10-15 minutes for the drinks to be brought over and our second drinks order was wrong...There seemed to be plenty of staff but no organisation. However, the quality of the food is just unreal, my second time visiting and it's never disappointed.

The place had been refurbished since our last visit, very Japanese swank, the philly and the Hong Kong fooey were simply amazing as were the cocktails. Attentive staff though they firstly brought us somebody else's food which my boy benefitted from having a French fri away, they also got our order wrong, asked for plain fries yet we were presented with the mixed fries (plain and sweet potato) smothered in cheese.... regardless the food was amazing, the patties were right up there with the Beefy Boys in Hereford. What followed was a sugary heaven, donuts filled with the most delightful ice cream! We completely over ate. Well worth a visit.

Loved this place. Best burger I've ever had and the staff were top notch. Will definitely be going back there next time I'm in Worcester.

Delicious! Very filthy eating (in a good way) ...almost too rich! A total treat.
E. B.
I love the names of the burgers and drinks.. was little bit overcrowded.. quirky place.. pork belly bites was the best iv tasted.. burgers was not to big or to small..staff friendly enough. I still think to have whats showen on the picture almost costing £60 is alot simply for a burger . Wouldnt rush to go back.

Excellent food and great atmosphere.

Amazing!!! Best burger I've ever eaten! And the cocktails where nice too. The staff where friendly happy to help "Dan the man"ager top lad. Great atmosphere definitely will be coming back when it's bigger can't wait for the desserts.
I had the lowrider chicken burger which had jalapeños, nachos and cheese on x, it was like heaven in my mouth!
My partner had a burger that was a donut I can't remember the name of it but she said it was dreamy we also shared the mac balls they where really nice as well overall the experience was a great and couldn't recommend enough!!!
S. R.
Amazing burgers!! I have visited twice now and both times never failed me, as well as delicious burgers the cocktails are sublime too! Definitely worth a visit and I will 100% be going back!!

Great food as always. Service fast and efficient. The Filthy Animal on this year's Christmas menu is top notch.

The most amazing burgers in Worcester 🙌🏼 Combinations I’ve never had before, but so so worth it. You need to try 11/10! “Euphoric food experience”
S. C.
Amazing service and out of this world food highly recommended
D. S.
Amazing food here: the tastiest burgers anywhere I've ever tried. Not cheap, but worth treating yourself. It's quite noisy and busy with loud music, which I enjoyed but it may not be to everyone's taste. Lovely staff as well. Support this place instead of the usual burger chains..
T. R.
Incredible food but the wait on a weekend isn't worth it! We waited nearly 2 hours for a burger which is crazy but I would definitely try and get a table during the week when its quieter.
Great food, reasonable price, friendly staff.
L. O.
I have been to Hanbao so. many. times. And I have never been disappointed. The staff are great, the food is amazing, they do they best burgers I honestly have ever had in my life. I never used to like burgers until I tried Hanbao. DEFINITELY recommend. Even if you have to wait an hour for a table - trust me it’s definitely worth it!!
C. D.
Hanbao have started serving the Vegang Clan burger for vegans which is amazing. It has the Beyond Meat burger in it which is cooked to perfection. Highly recommend. Lovely fries too. Friendly staff and quick service. I will be going back!
P. S.
Wow what a burger, reasonably priced too!
D. L.
Not like anything else in Worcester but in a good way. went on a Thursday and yes most of the clientele were younger but who cares, they gotta eat too! the whole place is about dressing how you want, being who you want....... so just be you.
Went with my wife for her birthday (both in our 40's) and the staff were amazing, gave her a free cocktail of choice. thank you guys!
Food was amazing and i had only one slight criticism, the shaloin fries were just a tad too salty. other than that 1 of the best burgers I've ever had (piggie smalls). Wife loved here's too.
Love the vibe and the atmosphere, laid back effortless cool.
After the food we were given the coin to the secret bar! Wow even us oldies must be cool! (but that's a secret so hush hush).
Before the secret bar we went to the rooftop terrace, very clean, very cool and great place to hang out and sample the great cocktails.
Will definitely be going back and will now become my venue of choice for our pre night out cocktails in the terrace.
Hanbao thank you. loved it.
K. K.
Interesting and fun burgers at a reasonable price (for gourmet burgers).
Great chips!
Worth a visit at least once. Regular visits will probably send your cholesterol levels into the stratosphere :)
T. S.
The place looks like disco club and the people, that visiting is mostly young. We ordered Royale burger with cheese, shaolin fries and big buddha belly side, which was sharer. All three was very delicious. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The place we were sitting was a little bit dark, with red lights. It is interesting for one time visiting experience, but probably we will not visit again.
J. P.
Gourmet burgers with fancy fries and sides. Limited vegan selection. Food was well cooked and fairly quick. Staff not interfering which was nice. High price burgers but you get what you pay for.
D. A. N.
Lovely staff, fantastic food!!!
H. C.
Decidedly average for the price, especially given the hype. The chicken burger was so overly seasoned it should be called the Pepper burger. Sides are priced fairly, can't comment on the fries as didn't order them. Non alcoholic drinks were expensive based on pricing from menu. For a quiet visit the staffing was basic with little interest in creating an atmosphere. Decor was really cool, very trendy. Having directions for exiting is useful instead of a bar across the entrance and expecting people to know where they're going, rather embarrassing standing around looking lost. Won't be rushing back.
S. T.
Great food as always, really friendly staff, and great service considering it's a busy Saturday night. We'll be back... Again..
M. S.
Excellent food, pleasant atmosphere. Recommended.
T. P.
Great drink & burger bar.
Prices are reasonable, the food is tasty (even in their huge portion sizes), & the place is tidy and clean.
Just wish they offered takeout/delivery.
O. G.
Wham Bam Tasty Burgers. Exotic burger combos and dirty flirty fries. Grab yourself some killer sides and prepare yourself for a feast.
Highly recommend as not just a meal but a experience. Solid drinks menu that leaves you wishing you were sober enough to remember them.
Neon strip lights on the way in might lead you to enlightenment. Otherwise decor slightly sparse, but no one's perfect.

We came from Birmingham to try this place and weren't disappointed. When we arrived it was fairly busy and we were told we had an hour wait but I didn't mind as I was visiting a friend and it gave us more time to chit chat and have a few drinks before our meal, this being said the wait was probably only half an hour and they were very accommodating as we had a buggy with us.
A lot of people have moaned about the waiting time but as it's a small place that can't be helped and they do have a booking system (which we should've used but didn't as we're mongs that didn't think it would be that busy on a Sunday).
The cocktails were amazing, I absolutely love fruity cocktails where you can't really taste the alcohol because it was like getting tipsy on squash. I especially recommend the oriental express and Leonardo dacaprisun. (Be wary when trying the dragon milk cocktail, it tastes like when you dunk a coconut cream biscuit into milk if that makes sense, wasn't really a fan of that one but it wasn't the worst thing I've tasted in my lifetime).
In addition to this, the food was lovely and deffo value for money. The meat as a bit meh but all the condiments and additions to the burgers made them flavourful and lush- it was so hard picking a burger as they all look amazing. I'll definitely be returning to try the other items and make my way through the menu.
Furthermore, the staff were amazing, they didn't keep checking on us every few seconds which I appreciated as I hate being asked how everything is while I've got a mouthful of food. They also gave us enough time to decide what we wanted and asked us if we wanted refills as soon as they saw we finished our drinks. We also weren't pressured to pay the bill and leave like most staff in other restaurants do.
The atmosphere was also amazing, I loved the playlist and even the old couple in front of us were bopping to J Cole.
Overall it was an amazing experience, the only way I think they could improve is by getting more comfortable chairs and also introducing desserts to the menu.
L. B.
We visit Worcester a lot and had heard about Hanbao from friends who live in the area. Supposedly it's quite a hipster place, but fantastic burgers with lots of interesting toppings. The four of us decided to try our luck at popping in for an early dinner on a Friday afternoon without booking (around 5pm). We were seated straight away by friendly and relaxed staff.
Looking at the menus online beforehand had certainly made us hungry in anticipation, and to be fair the food did not disappoint. Between us we ordered a Philly Cheese burger, Piggie Smalls, Odd Future, and Mac Daddy Kane. I had the latter and it was absolutely delicious, and the rest of our group all loved their burgers too, including the one with an iced doughnut instead of a bun. We also shared some BBC fries (regular and sweet potato fries with baconnaise, bacon bits, and cheese), and Shaolin fries, which were also great (oh my word, the pork bites!). The portions were generous but not too oversized though, and we left feeling more than satisfied, without that bloated, slightly nauseous feeling when you resent the food you've just eaten.
Presentation for all the food was quirky and fun, but using the bamboo steaming boxes as plates meant that we didn't get food all over the tables and ourselves in the process of demolishing our meals! The service was very friendly and efficient, with no issues at all, and the food came very quickly after ordering. It might have been a longer wait if we'd gone at a busier time but the staff seemed like they would have coped regardless. The only slight negative is the hard metal chairs are not very comfortable, so if we'd been there for a couple of hours that might have been a bit unpleasant.
All in all though we had a really delicious meal, for decent prices, with good service and a quick turn around (which suited us well as we didn't want to be leaving Worcester and driving home too late). We'll definitely go again I'm sure. Thanks to all the staff for a really lovely meal out.

Always bringing the best burgers to the Woo.
J. P.
Visit here once a month if I can get in! The most amazing burgers ever and the Shaolin Fries are seriously one of the best things I've ever tasted. Staff are always super friendly and helpful. I've never been let down by Hanbao they deliver every time.
S. P.
The food was immense and fresh with a fun range of burgers and sides, the staff were attentive and friendly and service was super quick. Loved everything about this place. The interior is great too and very 'moody'.
I ordered a "Cheeze Duz it" Burger which was just heavenly. Cheese, Carbs and Meat all cooked to perfection. Then there was my side of "Man's got Totz". This. Was. EPIC!! Hands down one of the best sides I've ever eaten. And the cost for quality is really good! You can make this place as budget friendly or as extravagant as you want... Definitely ideal for any budget. Our visit was just pure joy and delicious-ness.
My only criticism is that I felt like the bathroom could have been a bit cleaner and neater. I don't think the black in the bathroom really helps to be honest.. but that's just me (I have a thing about nice loos).
E. F.
Fantastic original food in a quirky setting. For someone that isn't a big burger fan I enjoyed mine as they are all a little different to what you are used to. Was a little loud in there so not easy to hear when chatting. But that was the only downside.
M. B.
Great place. Good choice of burgers and 2 Vegan options. Nice atmosphere, good food and decent price for city centre
A. c.
Been many times over the years 🙂 always receive friendly service, tasty cocktails and delicious creative burger's 🔥

Best burger place I've ever been to and I've travelled to America lots😁. Simply amazing food, very modern street atmosphere, excellent customer service. Brilliant bar. It's the best place to eat in Worcester.
G. W.
Was best burger iv ever had
F. W.
Amazing atmosphere. Good food. However make sure you reserve a table. Have I eaten out of hear all most every week for a months and have always had a good time.
There is also a bar up front as well and there are skilled at making drinks.
J. R.
Best. Burgers. Ever.
Let me elaborate.
I'm currently working my way through the menu by having a different burger each time, presently half way through and haven't found one I haven't liked. The combination of flavours and textures is interesting but they work well. From the perspective of the sides, the regular and bbc fries are very good, as is the belly pork. The selection of drinks is very good, however I tend to prefer a pint of some sort (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) with a burger but I hear the cocktails are impressive.
The staff are friendly and service is very quick while the overall atmosphere is unique and really sets Hanbao apart from the chains of gourmet burger restaurants.
There have been one or two occasions where I have turned up and been told there will be a wait, however it has never as long a wait as initially advised. That said, there are some things worth waiting for, Hanbao is definitely one of them.
C. C.
Quite simply... The a magnificent burger!
OK, so the place is so new I could not even write a TripAdvisor review because it isn't registered yet, but as a frequent burger reviewer I will tell you this burger gets full marks.
We walked in to the very industrial modern cocktail bar and I to the restaurant past a vast choice of hip hop influenced cocktails - my favourite being the Death Row - a £12 concoction of brandy and whiskey I believe. #Expensive. We then walked past the 3 metre graffiti style wall art which is also a clock (I think), past the black steel chairs, another wall size HANBAO light logo and into our booth - admiring the laser themed blackout decoration.
I am still setting the scene - then I went the loo and saw the plumbing work of heaven on the sink work which was impressive to say the least, before noticing the menu graffiti etched onto the wall in a mass of detail. Brown on black, it's a good job I had my contacts in, but it works great.
I ordered the Mac Daddy Kane which wet my appetite with the double patties, cheese, bacon, crispy fried onions (not grilled onions as advertised which made the burger even better!) Mac and cheese, marinara sauce, spicy ketchup and Mac fried balls. I also ordered the hot hot wings and BBC fries. With a coke.
The coke was freezing which as a critic - I like!
The fries were out of this world with the melted cheese, sprinkled bacon, baconaise sauce and mixed fries. What I also liked is how the waiter asked us if we'd like to separate some of the fries for our 16 month old little boy as the dressing had paprika on! Great service.
Whenever I go anywhere I sample the chicken wings as I feel it determines how much detail the chefs put into their 'whole' menu. Especially at niche restaurants that specialise in burgers for example. The wings were crispy and succulent. The sauce was unique and tangy and scattered in chillies. But I personally thought it could have been a whole lot hotter. But that's just my preference.
Now to the burger. I nearly had the Phillie Smalls hoping it would have been Juicy... excuse the pun. I initially feared the double sauce would be confusing and the burger itself oily because of the overload of cheese and patty. It stood firm. The burger was solid. It wasn't too greasy and it didn't fall apart. The buns were perfectly toasted and the patties, softer than any burger I've had. I can't emphasise the difficulty in getting a patty that is soft but not greasy and still has the dexterity and taste of a top burger. For technicality. It's the best I've had. No gristle. Perfectly cooked. The cheese and onions held up great and the flavours all came through. It's preference, but I don't like a burger that falls apart and is American style pumped with fat. If I had a criticism, it's that the cheese wasn't mature enough for my liking. But the cheese ball on top was amazing.
The pricing was great. We had 3 meals for £35. Its about £9.50 for the burger i had but they range between that and £7, while the fries are a couple of quid. Really affordable means it is a great option for the working man on a late lunch or dinner option. Service was great off the waiter. The waitress said they didn't do squash, but they did do blackcurrant cordial.......... Anyway, the chips heads up more than made up for that.
Quite simply. For the food. You have to come and try this burger! It's the best in the city and on preference, it scores higher than the rest in neighbouring counties. Aesthetically, the restaurant looks magnificent and I can not wait to visit the cocktail bar on a quaint Saturday evening where I think I will be necking many a Death Row! 5/5.
R. L.
Had an enormous vegan burger here. Not too much choice for veggies and vegans but there are a couple of options. Meat eaters would be spoiled for choice. This is true decadence. Gloves are offered so you can use your hands to try and fit the overstuffed burgers into your mouth, probably unsuccessfully. It's a messy kind of meal! Great fun, super cool decor, and I left with a very happy food baby.
J. A.
MUST visit! The restaurant is incredibly larger than it seems from the outside, and has a very modern, hipster feel. Music in the evening is quite loud so maybe not best for that first date, but class beginning to a night out with friends or colleagues. Bar serves some quirky cocktails with fluorescent straws! Don't get me started on the burgers... Can't remember what mine was called, but the top part of the bun was upside down, and coated in sugar and sprinkles, doughnut style! Strangely, it fits the rest of the burger. 😂
Definitely recommend this one to anyone passing by! Pretty much next door to Worcester Foregate Street train station.
M. S.
Incredible food. Probably the best burger joint for miles around. Worth the hour drive there and back!
J. B.
A once-every-now-and-again treat, that would lose its novelty value is you went too often. The food is deliberately overblown, calorific and gimmicky, but nonetheless tasty. The PBJ burger in particular surprised me with unusual and effective addition of five spice. The teriaki belly pork is great and a very indulgent side, that might otherwise make a perfectly good meal. Any grumbles are about what they don't do: I'd expect a place this trendy too have better choices of beer, especially given the fast-food nature of the menu.
L. P.
Amazing food and so much to eat ! Almost too much for me as I couldn't manage it all 🤣
T. F.
The best food I've eaten in a long time. The Philly Cheese Steak is something I've always wanted to try, and they've nailed it. No easy feat. You can taste the effort they've put into creating this amazing food. The shaolin fries have got me salivating again the following day just thinking about them! Honestly, kudos to you Hanbao. I'll be back again and again.
T. W.
Loud music, great food. The food on the menu is truly wicked very hard to make a decision it looks all so good!
R. H.
Been here several times now and each time Hanbao never fails to impress. Excellent choice of burgers and fries, with something for everyone. I have tried the Caesars Palace burger, as well as the piggie smalls and Mac daddy. Have even had a veggie option and all have been fantastic. Sides go beyond being just chips (although they do sell just chips) Keep up the good work. Will definitely keep returning here!
K. M.
Was a bit disappointing to be honest, although issues were resolved quickly the number of issues that occurred shouldn't have been an issue in the first place.
Firstly was put next to two speakers and couldn't hear each other, we asked to move into the main part of the restaurant as I saw a space, was told there wasnt space but the music was turned down slightly.
Asked server about beer, which sadly didn't know anything about what was on offer so ended up with one from off the menu that cost 6.50 for half a pint, and was nothing special.
Food arrived and my burger was completely wrong, was told 20 minutes to fix up a new one, when I said I wanted to leave within 30 seconds one magically appeared, makes me wonder if I had someone else's as theres no way one was cooked in that time.
Sadly to be honest the food was just average, my burger was meant to be a donut bun, it was more like a bagel dipped in sprinkles... all in all sadly average... however the place has potential, just great ideas poorly executed.
Oh and change the chairs, they're made out of some for of metal that feels like your sitting on an iron fence, 0 comfort.
M. B.
Awesome food, great service! Love their cocktails too
S. C.
Amazing food. No other place like it ! Been to many burger places but this tops them all by miles !
M. K.
Great service, with lovely and polite staff. Excellent food! and the surroundings are modern and comfortable. A great place for a real, decent burger. Highly recommended restaurant.
J. W.
Went to Hanbao with my partner for an early valentines meal and wow. . . . . As soon as you walk in you are met with a futuristic corridor (if you go you will understand what i mean), the restaurant area was clean and the whole place had a nice vibe about it and the staff were polite and attentive. Now the food. . . . Wow. . . . . Between us we had the ODB burger and the Royale with cheese, the mixed fries and the BCC fries and the fried mac and cheese balls. . . . . . The only reason we left any food was because we were too full. The food was cooked perfectly. We will deffinately be returning even though it is approximately 45miles away. The only issue we had was parking as we are not from the area, in the end i had to drop my partner off outside the restraunt and then i had to drive to a car park, i parked at i think it was called the cattle market. But apart from that an amazing experience. Thank you Hanbao.
A. A.
I'm probably the wrong demographic for Hanbao, but the guys at work have been raving about it so I thought, why not!
And boy I'm glad I did, great burger, good booze and massive sides!, in fact we had two side and could of happy shared one.
The service was super slick, and the waitress was super friendly.
I will not hesitate to recommend Hanbao and cannot wait to see them go from strength to strength
C. D.
Great place to go. Nice food, really good cocktails.
Just book ahead before going there, especially on a Saturday evening. We had to wait @45 mins to get a table for dinner.
Really nice inside though. It's some sort of modern-retro.
Will definitely go again (will book ahead though).
R. C.
Service was fantastic, food was amazing, cocktails were marvellous but most impressive and what really ticked the final boxes was the upstairs terrace, brilliant!!!
S. R.
Best burgers in town. Love it
j. a.
Just amazing! Perfect food, perfect service, perfect atmosphere!
Definitely reccomend!
S. D.
Some of the best burgers we have had. Great staff, great cocktails. What more could you ask for. Highly recommend.
C. E.
Beautiful food but service is lacking
J. L.
Literally I travel 25 miles from Gloucester every week to eat here.
Oversized and generous portions (which are absolutely unreal), beer which tastes amazing, unique menu which is unrivalled!
I cannot wait until they expand and bring their restaurants to Cheltenham or Gloucester.
There venue isn’t the biggest so aim to get there an hour before you want to eat to experience the cocktails and drinks!
Vibe is dimly lit with loud music, ideal for 16-30 year olds I would say - definitely not for the ‘average’ pensioner!
100% recommend this, your taste buds will thank you!
Also, the staff are so kind and polite (something missing from today’s restaurant chains)
Thank you Hanbao!
E.
I really enjoyed going here and I ordered the kids chicken burger and it was AMAZING. It was well worth the price and the portions were perfect. I would recommend this to people who like going out to restaurants.
I have done other places to eat and other things to do, please go visit my reviews at Kiddit.me.
D. R.
What fantastic burgers!! Very tasty food, great choice for a drink. Great service. We had a very good night 😁🍸🍹
R. R.
Nice place, plenty of choice of cocktails. Less range for non-alcoholic drinks though the bar staff did make a non-alcoholic version for me (not sure it warranted paying the same price as a normal cocktail though). Fairly pricey though. I havent been here for food yet.
C. W.
Amsophere was relaxing and the burgers we got were tasty. We got a side order of fries that tastes great too.
Also, they have gloves if you don't want your hands to get messy while eating it!
S. D.
Absolutely unreal, would recommend a visit to this place anyday! Take it home if you can't finish it!
J. M.
Fantastic service and amazing food every time
T. O.
Great new menu.
Excellent waitress
Great new decor.
The burgers we had were one of the best we have had. Both beef and chicken.
Also try Icybao for the ice cream!!
L. S.
I previously came here with a group of people as it was recommended highly to us.. fair to say it didn't disappoint, the burgers are out of this world so are the fries and sides. We have since been multiple times (including going 3 times in 3 weeks, oops). We always recommend Hanbao to our friends and we will carry on coming 😁♥️
M. R.
Place was really good. Hamburgers were massive. However, last time we visited it didn't impress as much. We did go on a weekday evening, so maybe that was why? Regardless, would try again.
T. C.
Great burgers. Good flavours and selection. Definately highly recommended. Family love the waffle fries.
V. H.
My boyfriends chicken burger was great. My vegan burger was expensive, cold and did not taste good sadly, especially as I usually normally love a beyond burger and it's hard to go wrong with one..
S. L. H.
Food was amazing and they even accommodated our babies
C. F.
Been here at least 4 times in the past 6 months & the food is brilliant - burgers, sides & even the drinks! Highly recommend this to any burger fanatic out there :-)
J. M.
Very trendly. Which means popular. No booking but they'll hold a table for you. Serve Red Stripe in cans which screams hipster or my drink of choice in 1999. (Which makes me ultra hipster or old.)
Excellent hip hop pun names for the burgers: I had the 'Piggie Smalls'.
Burger was tasty but, to go old skool, don't believe the hype. Well, kinda believe it but don't think you'll eat the best burger in the world...second best in Worcester.
W. D.
Been a few times to Hanbao now, enough to conclude it's average. Food is expensive for what it is but nice enough. Burgers are often overcomplicated to make up for the fact the actual patties aren't that interesting or brilliant quality. Sides are expensive and drinks laughably so. Staff are OK but mainly can't be bothered.
There are other, better, places to go for a burger in Worcester. Hanbao has very little to recommend it.
W. B.
Great food. Great cocktails. Great service. My only flaw would be that due to only 2 of us dining they wouldn't accept reservations so ended up waiting an hour and a half for a table.
M. C.
New rooftop terrace is lovely but a nightmare to get drinks on a weekend evening. Neither bar gets through the orders at a rate where you're not waiting less than 20/30 minutes.
A. S.
Great service, brilliant food. Double aged patties from Aubrey Allen expertly put together by people who have genuine love of burgers. Great kimchi. Legends.
D.
It was nice, but special was too generous with pancake and too light on syrup.
A. B.
Nice burger place with a good range, high price but you get a lot of burger so it evens out, however if you do get a burger with a fair bit of pink in the middle you probably should send it back even if the waiter says it's fine. I'm writing this 3 hours later on the toilet.... some regrets 😰
a. b.
Delicious burger and fries. Very well executed w super friendly staff
D. B.
Great food but a little overpriced
A.
Really great food, well presented and very tasty! It has a good atmosphere and the rooftop terrace is brilliant to sit and chill with a drink. Definitely recommend =)
T. P.
Food was lovely but the staff could smile abit more and be more welcoming, won't go back for that reason, can get a great burger other places and be made more welcome and be cheaper, not much in the way of draught beers which was a shame, outside area was good, if you could find a seat
J. H.
Attentive service, good food, great cocktails, but the venue is a little bit loud.
L. S.
Love, love love the food and the burgers are incredible but something that made it originally so amazing seems to have gotten lost with the new fit. The grungy feel to the decor has gone it felt a bit cafey and the service has dropped
C. M.
Awesome as ever. Definitely worth a visit
I. K.
Al right burgers, but so overhyped. It's a nice place with nice staff, but prices are a but high, £12 for a double patty burger the size of a man's fist. Fries are bad, too much seasoning.
G. S.
Sick! Hip hop based food/drink/venue. Great food! Grape soda!
S.
Once you've done Hanbao you won't look at another burger place the same, it's how burgers should be. Great staff, great vibes and decor
C. B.
One of the best burgers I've eaten. Cool venue and great service.
J. M.
Great original burgers here. Served with twist. Love how weird and wonderful they are. If the burgers are not enough the pig out sides are amazing.
J. B.
Great tasting burgers. Didnt feel comfortable on the metal seats and the place has a very hip sort of atmosphere with the music playing very loud and all the spray paint on the walls.
R. H.
Hands down the best burger joint I’ve ever experienced! - food was out of this world, staff are friendly and very polite! Will be back again soon! 😍
G. K.
Myself and my partner have been scouring the Cotswolds and beyond for the best burger place, we never thought it possible to have a burger that made you want to cry and laugh all at once, then we came apon, HANBAO.
What a place!!!
The most insanely phenomenal burgers we've ever had.
The staff (or team) were inc4edibly helpful and kind.
The atmosphere upbeat and happy.
Without a doubt THE BEST BURGER PLACE IN THE WHOLE OF THE COTSWOLDS/ SOUTH!!!
10/10.
Will be back soon!!
T. P.
Always brilliant! Table service was prompt! Covid measures were impressive. Ashleigh was great. 5 star experience!
B. B.
I visited Hanbao with my friend for birthday celebration and it was really good night out x Food very delicious - burger are big with lot of nice toppings and extras, fries served in large portions ( one it’s perfect for share).

Food is good, a little over priced maybe. Service was good but the whole place lacked atmosphere. Plus I don't want my burger in a steamer dish, bloody awkward.

Good burgers served here. Not quite as good as rival Beefy Boys and the menu options are a little over the top but worth exploring if you like burgers and experimenting!

I was quite suprised how big the restaurant was there advertising for there burgers looked huge but when we had them they wasnt as big but never the less they was very tasty and the fries was enough for 2 people the meal was good value tho we has to wait 20 mins for drinks but definetly would go again.

It all makes sense and it is awesome.
I never want a burger from anywhere else!

Best burger I have had in a while! Cocktails are amazing but felt a bit exposed in the centre tables.

Food is great, and the new lay out of the restaurant is good just a shame the last time I visited at lunch time with my best friend and son the music was very load. Otherwise all round good place to go.

Just been in for a meal with my girlfriend, amazing service, great food, good music just a generally incredible atmosphere. On top of that it's a very individual and different place highly recommended if you are in the should definitely give it a try.

Great burgers, drinks selection is good. Staff are OK but not very attentive. Atmosphere is OK but they are working on this.

I can see why people rave on about this place. Food looked great. I just had some fries and they were great. Wish they did a plain boring option for us unadventurous types that go for meals with adventerous types.

Not the cheapest but well worth the money. Burgers are fantastic and really good quality meat. Atmosphere is brilliant and very child friendly!
