Archie’s, Manchester
Archie’s is a casual halal burger and milkshake joint located on Oxford Road in Manchester; they are known for their incredibly creamy milkshakes, crispy chicken burgers, oh and, how could I forget, for the celebrity hotspotting too. With guests like Nas, the Game, and Amir Khan, the boxer, it was easy to see just why it was recommended so many times, and I went well-equipped with a fully charged iPhone, plus a notepad and pen too!
After waiting in a short queue, BW got to the front and ordered the food, whilst I kept an eye-out for a world-famous rapper to walk into the diner at any moment. Twenty minutes later, our meal arrived fresh to the table, yet there was no lightweight boxer to be seen! Hm, they must be on their way over.

I’m not sure how much of a difference there was between both of Archie’s classic and the star ranges, but I decided to go for one of the star burgers, which according to the menu, are “handmade with 100% ground beef, smashed, and made fresh to order”. Hmmm, I wonder how fresh one of the classics are?
The total bill amounted to £16 for two people including drinks and service. I did find the burgers to be a little on the pricey side for a diner, but when comparing to London burger joints, Archie’s is on the same wavelength. Sadly, I didn’t manage to get a selfie with anyone remotely famous *sigh*, but I did have a taster of what all the hype was about and I was pleasantly surprised.
