Honest Burgers, 36 Bridge Street, Manchester, M3 3BT - Visit now

Honest Burgers have spent lockdown crafting some fantastic limited edition choices for all you hungry at-home eaters.

Top restaurants are selling takeaway versions of their popular dishes, not to mention semi-prepped kit meals, and the generosity (plus a desire to show off, let’s be honest) of chefs in providing previously secret recipes means we can eat well in the comfort of our own homes, for the time being. Food delivery services and kit meals are a perfect way to bridge the gap before normality returns.
