Ember & Bun
A burger patty searing over open flame with sparks flying

Smash Burgers · Hand-cut Fries · Shakes

Smashed hot. Served late.

A late-night burger cart in Riyadh. Fresh beef smashed on a roaring flat-top, fries cut by hand and fried twice, shakes thick enough to need a spoon. Order ahead, skip the line.

01The Cart

برجر · بطاطس · ميلك شيك

Ember & Bun is one cart, one flat-top and one obsession: the perfect smash. Fresh beef, pressed hard onto steel so hot the edges turn to lace — then cheese, pickles, our sauce, and a soft potato bun. That's it. That's the whole trick.

Burgers, sides and shakes across 10 sections

02The Lineup

Pressed hard, flipped once.

Every patty is smashed to order, so the edges go crisp and lacy while the middle stays juicy. Tap add — it'll be hot at the window when you get here.

01 / Classic

One crisp-edged patty, American cheese, pickles, onions and Ember sauce on a toasted potato bun.

03The Fry Station

Cut by hand. Fried twice.

No bags from a freezer. Our fries start as whole potatoes every afternoon and get the slow-then-fast double fry that makes them shatter. Have them classic, seasoned, or loaded until you need a fork.

06A Night at the Cart

16:00 — Fire up

The flat-top gets scraped and seasoned, potatoes are cut, sauces are made. The first smash hits the steel at four.

19:30 — The rush

After-work crowds and families. Online orders roll in, the window gets busy and the cart smells like caramelised onion.

22:00 — Late crowd

Friends after a game, couples after a film. Loaded fries for the table and shakes for the walk.

01:00 — Last smash

The final orders of the night go out hot. Thursdays and Fridays, we keep the grill going until three.

  • 3. We smash it

    Your order hits the flat-top right away — or at the pickup time you chose.

    Walk up to the pickup window, give your name, and you're off. Usually around 12 minutes.
