Serving up speed: How 10Gbps connectivity changed everything for Patty & Bun
Patty & Bun was established in 2012 and is renowned for serving high-quality gourmet burgers. Their mouthwatering menu changes monthly, with new specials added to keep flavours fresh and customers returning.
With 9 locations across London, the business has built a strong reputation for its delicious food and superb customer experience. While the company has consistently grown year on year, its connectivity slowly began to fall short across several sites, including its HQ on Cavendish Street, London.
Why reliable internet is as crucial as the perfect location
When success relies on serving thousands of customers daily, operational efficiency is critical to success, and there is little room for downtime.
To maintain smooth operations, Patty & Bun relies on two key factors: Electronic Point of Sale (EPOS) systems, which are fundamental to processing orders and managing billing, and fast, stable internet connectivity, which ensures the EPOS systems can keep up with processing information at speed.
The cost of unreliable internet
Providing exceptional service, day after day, is challenging enough. But adding some connectivity chaos to the mix quickly became a recipe for disaster.
The team experienced frequent outages and inconsistent speeds, which meant their EPOS systems would either be frustratingly slow or completely out of action for minutes, hours or sometimes even days. All amplified by the fact they had different internet service providers across multiple locations, making troubleshooting each providers individual line a nightmare for the team.
This meant order processing and restaurant operations took a hit, negatively impacting their customers, staff, and ultimately revenue.

From frustration to fast – a seamless switchover
Despite the disruption, the team feared that changing internet service provider would result in further disruption – something they simply could not afford to happen.
After Vorboss was recommended through an industry partner, they decided it was worth exploring. They were quickly assured of a seamless transition with little to no disruption to day-to-day operations, meaning the switch-over wouldn’t hinder their ambitious revenue targets, and would ultimately fix all their connectivity problems.
Soon after, our install team connected them with a Direct Internet line whilst they were still in contract with various ISPs across different locations, at no extra cost (meaning no double billing). So, not only were they able to consolidate their connectivity, but there was also zero switchover downtime, disruption or additional cost.
The 10Gbps upgrade that changed everything

Vorboss provided one to one assistance throughout the process and were on hand 24/7 for any questions or additional support.
Now using a Vorboss 10Gbps Direct Internet connection (AKA a leased line), Patty & Bun never have to share their connection. This guarantees 10Gbps upload and download speed at all times, even during peak hours, which gives them the reliability and speed they’d craved for years.
Constantly troubleshooting slow EPOS systems, and inconsistent customer WiFi is now a thing of the past. The ability to focus on what’s really important - food, service, and experience - means they can continue to thrive in a highly competitive environment.

London, 17 July 2025
Vorboss, London’s leading fibre network built exclusively for business, today announced the expansion of its managed services portfolio, reinforcing its position as the trusted single provider for the city’s enterprise connectivity needs. This strategic move reflects the growing demand for comprehensive, resilient services from a single, expert partner – particularly in light of the increasing complexity of cybersecurity threats and IT infrastructure.
- London businesses can now consolidate connectivity, managed services, and cybersecurity, backed by the fastest fibre network built exclusively for businesses
- Completed acquisitions of 40fi (cybersecurity) and Optimity (managed services), and strategic investment in Layer8 (network management for commercial real estate)
- 80+ new specialists join Vorboss, expanding total workforce to nearly 400
As part of this strategy, Vorboss has closed three acquisitions designed to broaden its capabilities beyond its core strength in managed network infrastructure. Among these are 40fi, a respected cybersecurity business, and Optimity, a leading provider of managed IT services. Together, these acquisitions bring an additional 80 experienced professionals into the Vorboss team, significantly enhancing the company’s ability to deliver end-to-end solutions for London’s most demanding businesses. Vorboss is excited to welcome the hundreds of customers that Optimity and 40fi serve across the UK today, and look forward to continuing the high levels of customer service and technical expertise currently provided.
This expansion addresses a clear and urgent need from Vorboss customers: the ability to consolidate connectivity, IT, and security under one accountable provider. By integrating cybersecurity expertise and managed IT services capabilities into its offering, Vorboss is now uniquely positioned to provide a comprehensive suite of services – spanning secure network infrastructure, endpoint management, threat mitigation, and strategic IT and cybersecurity consultancy.

Tim Creswick, CEO of Vorboss:
“Vorboss has a long history in managed services, but for the last 6 years, our focus has been on delivering the best enterprise fibre network London has ever seen. That has been a huge project, commanding millions of hours of labour from our team, and we are now connecting thousands of business customers to that network – all at 10Gbps and above. I’m excited that we’re now able to return to some of our managed services roots, with the timely addition of cybersecurity services. These are things that our customers and partners ask us about all the time. As operators of extensive, high-capacity infrastructure, we have a huge amount of real expertise in-house already, so customers know that they’re getting advice from real practitioners, not just consultants.
The addition of the Optimity and 40fi teams gives us some immediate scale to address those customer needs, with the same vertically integrated, high quality approach that they’ve come to love from us”.
In addition, Vorboss has also invested in Layer8, a first-of-a-kind software platform enabling building operators to automate, manage, and monetise their networks. Designed for commercial real estate environments, Layer8 gives building managers, managed service providers (MSPs), and non-technical users simple, secure control over on-site network infrastructure.
