Bun X at Micawbers

You'll find yourself in Micawbers, a proper characterful boozer that's been doing its thing on Pottergate for years, except now it's got Bun X running the kitchen. The burgers here aren't messing about—they're built properly, with the kind of attention to detail that makes you realise why people are queuing and booking ahead. The space feels like an actual local's pub: wooden beams, dark corners, the sort of place where you could genuinely spend an evening without feeling like you're performing for anyone. It's unpretentious but undeniably serious about what it's doing. You're eating proper food in a setting that actually has bones to it.
