UK first burger concept lands in Manchester – and it’s out-of-this-world

A bold new burger concept, Outer Space Burgers, blending out-of-this-world flavours with mess-free UFO-shaped burgers, is coming to Manchester, and it’s set to redefine the city’s takeaway burger scene.

Based on the viral ‘Instagrammable’ South Korean “UFO burger” trend, Outer Space Burgers are made using a patented UFO Burger Machine, designed specifically to seal in the ingredients and create the distinctive shape, perfect for busy earthlings on the go.

What’s more, the unique burger concept is even offering a new frontier in fast food, with dessert options giving those with a sweet tooth the full experience.

With four meat and vegan burgers to choose from, four dessert variants, plus sides, dips and drinks, Outer Space Burgers is offering meal deals ranging from just £12.95.

To celebrate the launch, Outer Space Burgers’ very own purple furry space man mascot will be taking to the city centre’s streets on Saturday, 3rd of May 2025, offering free burgers and even a full year’s supply if you can track him down.

So, what’s on the menu at Outer Space Burger?

Four-star burgers lead the mission, including the UFO Double Cheese, a double beef patty stacked with cheese, tangy pickles, and burger sauce (£9.50) – a classic constellation of flavour.

Prefer chicken? The UFO Chicken keeps things grounded with a crispy Kentucky-style fillet, garlic mayo and shredded lettuce (£9.50) while the Flamin’ Hot Chicken (£9.50) will launch your taste buds to the sun with jalapeños and Louisiana hot sauce.

Even the vegan option is a meteor strike of flavour: pulled shiitake mushrooms in Korean BBQ sauce, paired with kimchi, sesame and spring onions (£8.50) – all tucked into the same signature UFO-shaped package. It’s the plant-based warp-speed scran you didn’t know you needed.

If this isn’t enough and you fancy a tasty spacey side, Moon Rocks, which are a lot like Tater tots, bring some fried potato goodness (£4).

Looking for some extra fuel for dessert?

For those with a sweet tooth, Outer Space Burgers goes full sugar shuttle.

The Apple Pie UFO pairs classic compote with Biscoff crumble and custard (£6.50), while the Cherry Pie UFO brings a cosmic burst of Morello cherry compote and velvety custard (£6.50). The PBJ UFO is a nostalgic journey of peanut butter, strawberry jam and marshmallow (£6.50).

There’s even a gooey S’mores UFO, oozing Nutella, Biscoff and toasted marshmallow (£6.50). All of them sealed into that tidy, snackable saucer. Vegan dessert options are available too, with the Apple and Cherry Pie UFO, so no one gets left behind on this flavour voyage.
