About Tango
Tango is an independent burger restaurant on Saddler Street, a short stroll from the cathedral in the heart of the city. Its core offering is a range of burgers with various twists, sat alongside some lighter, Middle Eastern-influenced dishes and desserts made in-house, giving it a broader menu than a straight burger bar.
The setting is casual and social, aimed at students, shoppers and visitors passing through the busy Saddler Street run up to the cathedral. It is a useful option for a relaxed, informal bite rather than a formal meal, and its central location makes it easy to drop into as part of a day in town.
