About Burt's
Burt's is a well-regarded independent burger restaurant at 208 Heaton Road in Heaton, a suburb in the east of Newcastle upon Tyne. It comes from the team behind the neighbouring Flint Pizza, and shares their focus on doing a small number of things well, summed up by the restaurant's own guiding line of "good beef only." Sitting on one of Heaton's two main streets, it forms part of the cluster of independent eateries that have made the area a destination for casual dining in east Newcastle, and it has drawn praise in the Good Food Guide.
The menu is built around burgers, available to eat in or order for takeaway through the restaurant's online ordering, with the emphasis firmly on quality beef. Alongside walk-in dining, Burt's takes group bookings, offers tailored packages for larger parties and can be hired as a venue, and it sells gift cards. Its opening pattern is geared to later-week and weekend service rather than every day. As a sister operation to Flint Pizza, it is part of a small local group that has helped shape Heaton Road's reputation for independent, well-made food.
