Shake Shack Canary Wharf

I want to sincerely thank Zuber, a wonderful team member at Shake Shack Canary Wharf. Zuber was incredibly friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout my visit. His positive attitude and warm demeanor made my dining experience truly enjoyable. I deeply appreciate his excellent service! Thank you, Zuber!

Mahir was absolutely brilliant — super kind, helpful and made the whole experience at Shake Shack even better. Really appreciated his friendly service and positive attitude. Thank you!

I'm giving it 5 ⭐ but it's a 4.5 really, the hot dogs we had were slightly undercooked in my opinion but still pretty good, the cheesy fries were absolutely amazing, salted just right and a great amount of cheese, the milkshakes let me down tbf, no banana flavor? It's called THE shake shack, what shake place doesn't do banana?? And like 3-4 flavors in total? The strawberry shake with chocolate sauce had no strawberries in it because I couldn't taste any, all in all come here for the food not the shake
The lemonade (American style not fizzy) was amazing according to my gf
Place includes outside seating

It’s a great place and the food is nice but the wait is long in the evening ! Loud and crowded! But

Food got delivered really late, but the main issue was the quantity and taste. I've eaten from this chain before, and it's quite good. But this one was not at all as I remember it to be. Taste was very average at best, and not worth the price....

The chicken we use in our Chicken Shack and Chicken Bites in every UK Shack is halal-certified, including our 2021 festive Black Truffle Chicken item. 

However, we must highlight that we do also sell non-halal menu items in our business - as such, our beef is not halal. We hope this helps but if you have any more questions, please do reach out to us.

@littlefoodiethoughts's review of Simply Smashed Stepney Green on Instagram

Simply Smashed - Quality Smash Burgers

This joint satisfies all cravings. From a brilliant array of smash burgers to a superb chicken thigh burger. The wings and the fries are perfection with a variety of flavours available to choose from. This place also hosts one of the best tiramisu’s in London. It’s got everything!

The customer service is amazing here. The owner is really welcoming and looks after you as a customer. I definitely recommend this place to anyone craving a top tier burger.

This is literally my go-to place for beautiful burgers, chips and wings. Whether it’s the angus beef, wagyu beef or chicken burger, you can simply never ever go wrong at Simply Smashed.

The staff are forever hospitable and it’s a very relaxed vibe if you want to eat in. Whether you’re meeting up with a group of friends or even taking your partner, this is the place to relax, have great conversations and eat the best burgers you’ll ever have!

My usual order is a double wagyu beef burger, skin on fries and garlic parmesan wings

Thank you to all the staff at Simply Smashed for consistently making the best burgers in all of London and forever surpassing expectation, it’s why I make the 45 minute journey every week!

Simply the best burgers in the local area (Stepney Green/Mile end). So glad to have a place that doesn’t have dead, tasteless burgers. The meat in the smashed burgers is moist and juicy, I love the amount of sauce/cheese used (if you don’t like a saucy burger this may not be for you). I enjoy watching the sauciness drip from my burger whilst fireworks go off in my mouth from every mouthwatering bite. The chips however are a hit or a miss, not always satisfied with these but due to the great burgers I’ll keep coming back.

Food comes in a sturdy, recyclable box. Restaurant is inside a plant store, amazing unintentional aesthetics. The sauce sachets that come with the food needs to be changed as they do not compliment the meal at all, basic ketchup would be a better choice.

I went in with a couple brothers and my expectation at first from looking at the location was not all that but I was surprised Alhamdulillah. First we had to scan the qr code on entry to look at the menu. And the options were amazing with the prices were decently ranges out. We ordered two mixed platter for two. The Double Smashed Burgers was the best HMC burger I have had in a while. I would give the burger an 8/10 but that's just me if anything I should have added the chili sauce to overall boost the flavour but that's on my side. The chips I would give a 8.5 out of 10 it's just the and tastes overall peri peri powder tasted really nice. And the Dynamite wings tasted really spot on I just felt as though I should have used more sauces to experiment with I would give it a 8/10. The
TIRAMISU was a 10/10 I have never had one as good as this Alhamdulillah. Unfortunately I didn't take any photos of it since I was just hungry. But everything was just on point with it. The customer service was a 9/10 and the overall experience was a 10/10. Everything was made fresh and it wasn't much of a wait considering the also had to make takeaways.

The best halal wagyu burgers I've had. They are so juicy.  The wings are to die for. Simply smashed have simply outdone themselves and it's no wonder I'm a frequent returning customer. Immensely pleased

Pit Stop

This was the first time ordering. The food tasted amazing, one of the best burgers my family has tasted in a while. The patties were cooked to perfection. We will definitely be ordering again.

Amazing food and quality
Staff are very helpful and food is on point.
Thanks guys see you soon !

Pit-Stop

Five Guys Park Royal

Can't go wrong with this place.  Was happy to see they open this location near the hotel we are staying at.   The place was new, clean and friendly staff.   Burgers are always great.

The food is freshly made with amazing chips. Very clean environment and spotless toilets. We keep coming back, time after time. Definitely a recommendation! 👌🏻

Edit.

The place is very comfortable and well located, but the service is terrible, I come here every week to eat, today I was confronted by a guy who works there. I ordered a beer and was going to order a snack, he didn't let me stay there, I always get a beer and eat peanuts, after that I asked for a snack, the guy with a rude tone treated me badly, spoke shouting, seemed stressed, said he couldn't stay there and do that, I always do that and today I was surprised. I'm very indignant, . I'm very upset. I'm here leaving my opinion, I hope you have the attitude and change how this works.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Five Guys, and let me tell you, it was an absolute blast! From the moment I stepped foot into the restaurant, I knew I was in for a treat. The mouthwatering aroma of sizzling burgers and freshly cut fries filled the air, instantly making my stomach growl with anticipation.

The menu at Five Guys is simple yet satisfying, offering a variety of burger options and customizable toppings. I opted for their classic cheeseburger with all the fixings, and boy, was it a flavor explosion! The patty was perfectly cooked, juicy, and packed with deliciousness. The bun was soft and held everything together flawlessly. The best part? The generous amount of melted cheese that oozed out with every bite. It was pure bliss.

Now, let's talk about the fries. Five Guys takes their fries seriously, and it shows. The portion size was incredibly generous, and the fries were perfectly crispy on the outside, while remaining fluffy on the inside. I couldn't resist dipping them into their signature Five Guys sauce, which added an extra layer of tangy goodness. It's safe to say that I devoured every last fry on my plate.

One thing to note about Five Guys is that it's not a place for the faint of heart. The dining experience can get a little messy, but that's part of the charm. The burgers are so juicy and packed with toppings that it's impossible to eat them without getting your hands covered in deliciousness. But hey, that's what the abundance of napkins provided is for, right?

The staff at Five Guys were friendly and efficient, ensuring that my order was prepared to perfection. The restaurant itself had a casual and inviting atmosphere, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal with friends or family.

In conclusion, Five Guys is a burger lover's paradise. The quality of their ingredients, the customizable options, and the overall experience make it a standout fast-food joint. So, if you're ready to indulge in a messy, finger-licking good meal, head over to Five Guys and prepare to have your taste buds blown away. Just make sure to bring your appetite and a stack of napkins!

Five stars aren’t enough to express how amazing Mikah, Keyur, and Hetal at Five Guys Park Royal were during our visit! As a pregnant customer, their kindness, patience, and excellent customer service truly stood out. Despite being the last customers in the store at closing time, we were never rushed or made to feel unwelcome. They went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable and pleasant experience. Their professionalism and warm attitude made all the difference. Thank you, Mikah, Keyur, and Hetal, for making our visit so special!

KFC Leyton Mills - Retail Park

A lady was waiting in the queue for 10
minutes, as everyone else. On the moment she got her order, it was already cold, as the meal had already been exposed but no one called her number.
On the time she got her meal is was cold, and she told this employee that her burger is cold, as him reply " Bin it, if don't like it". I took a picture of him .
So if you want to be treated like that, best place to come is KFC Leyton ! Thx  buddy for being rude !

It's not what was advertised, it's a regular order for me (due to late night shifts) the size of this is below what the regular size is, I have tried to explain the situation to the staff but their rude behavior did not allowed me to finish first and the next thing that I've been told is that they do not understand the problem with the size of my portion and would not so anything to help, did not even consider to get a refund, but wasn't offered that either

Been there many times as it’s a quick stop for lunch when I’m at work. I only come here when I get bored of Other eating places in the Mill. Food isn’t the greatest compared to other KFCs I’ve had, but certainly ain’t the worst either (thank god for that)! Their chicken is sometimes so crusty that it grazes the inside of my mouth! Also, I’m not fond of their chips with the skin still on it... but that’s KFC in general, not just this branch.

This is the worst KFC I have went to. I would NOT recommend this place, I went there when it was not busy only 2 customers in the shop and it took 10-15 min just to serve me I bought 4 wow boxes and all of the chicken were tiny. They take ages despite the fact they are supposed to be a fast food services. They did nothing about the chicken size

if you go there at certain times when food is being cooked fresh it is nice.
otherwise KFC standard offering

HFA has certified KFC's products in these stores, and the store environments, as halal. KFC has also ensured that the halal certified chicken would also meet the rigorous animal welfare standards employed in the UK, and has consulted leading animal welfare groups about this. KFC insists that all poultry is stunned before slaughter. HFA allows the use of a technique called 'stun-to-stun' - a pain free process that makes the animal insensible to pain and suffering. A verse is also recited from the Quran at the point of slaughter by an appropriate person and the poultry will not come into contact with non-halal meat at any point in the supply chain. KFC only buys high quality, Grade A, farm-assured chicken from trustworthy suppliers, and this will not change.

Grill Cartel

I took the recommendation of the staff on my first first and got the cartel donor. Good portions and great taste!! The only thing keeping me from coming back so quickly is the high prices! Drop the price price and I think there would more repeat customers here! As well as more 5stars

Honestly, I don't see the hype with this place, and before people get excited talking about their high rating type in "Nidos Feltham" they have a high rating, but go walk into that shop and you'll see that place and you'll see why reviews can be fabricated.

(It even says on Cartels lots reviews, they ain't even verified by Google).

Now let's talk about the food. My boy got their doner meat, which is supposedly the highest quality Doner around, when I tell you this is the biggest CAP going. If you've ever eaten at Rocky's it tastes just like their kebab and even the BBQ sauce taste the same. No that ain't a good thing that it tastes the same when it's supposed to be in the top teirs of kebab. Next we got the Lamb chops, again they go on about it being the highest quality lamb going, if that's the case then you've got the lowest quality chefs going cause how was the chops chewy and tough, it should be soft like Wattan in Southall. Plus, the chops has barely any flavour going. Next, the Masala chips, it ain't CHIPS should be called Masala Fries. It literally is chaat seasoning on top, so dead and their fusion sauce is just Algerian sauce. Lastly, I ordered the Lamb Shawarma, how is this supposedly best quality lamb, so tough to bite into and plus the sauces don't go well together, even Zaza's on Uxbridge Road is on another level compared to this place.

Hugely disappointed with this HYPED place and before the owner tries coming back with a brick wall defensive response, take the L and firmly hold it. One of west Londons deadest munch places.

(ALSO, NOTE THEY'VE GOT A LOT OF REVIEWS FROM ACCOUNTS THAT ARE RESTRICTED WITH 1 REVIEWS, FAKE 5 STAR RATINGS)

Amazing grilled food. The best grilled chicken I’ve had in a long time! Fresh and juicy with banging flavours. Always top quality every single time we visit.

Outstanding food and portion size. One lamb chop is like a big steak. £25 portion of 4 felt reluctant but had to see why and was worth even paying double.

This is by far the best food I have had my entire life...I literally had to ditch my diet for one day to fully enjoy this meal. Wow! Wow! Wow! It was worth every bite. If you are visiting UK, you must stop by Grill Cartel to try out this food. The owner was extremely friendly and educated us on the meal prep process. He even gave us samples. We need a chain of this cuisine in the US, please!

Bun & Sum

Really tasty and good concept
Had the brisket burger and animal style fries, quite good but had alot of bones and ruined majority of the experience.
Other smash burger was decent

Food took 35minutes to come and there were only two other people eating
Busy with just eat however no acknowledgement for the late service, seating was outside so we were frozen when food came.

Taste factor delivered however mouth feel disappointed.

Saw this place on social media and thought I'll give it a go. Had a craving for a meaty burger.
I got the big smac and my husband got the pastrami.
Both burgers were delicious.
Pastrami one has that salty meaty taste.
We also got fries but I wouldn't bother next time, not worth the price.
Drunks are really expensive too.

Random stop and it was worth it.

Had the Pastrami Burger and Mashed potatoes. It was pretty good. So it's basically beef patty topped with Pastrami. Interesting combo, but works.
It's a collection only restaurant, but it also has a sit out area if you really can't wait to get home lol.

Almost missed my way until we started smelling burgers being cooked, and that helped with directions lol.

It's worth trying out..

So you fancy something different, something special, an explosion of flavours? Bun & Sum is a place tucked away in Bow, in an Industrial Estate. There is outdoor seating for 24 people on four park benchs. This place was BUSY, so leave plenty of time. Walking distance from Bow Underground Station and Bow Church Overground. If you arrive by car, then you can park on the pavements while you enjoy your food.

The food, the drinks, the menu are different. The flavours are incredible. The price is just above what we are all used to, but it is worth it 100%. I went for the Pastrami burger. I saw a famous food reviewer from Birmingham visiting, not to review but simply to eat.

Salim Patel

The burger was delicious, soft juicy and tasty.  I was a little disappointed with the drip fries as it didn’t taste any different from all the other places. 30 minute wait for the food as it’s so popular.

KFC Acton Vale - Uxbridge Road

Just the right place for a break after shopping around.  KFC is well known for its fast food as always so I took my break. The snack bundle and a Pepsi cola was awesome and the chicken pops was very tasty too.Enjoyed it as they say it’s finger lickin good.

Ordered 10 piece bucket meal in store (takeaway). The 2 bite size chicken pieces pictured count as 1 piece each (unbelievable). The family said they look refried as the colour was considerably darker than normal and compared to the other proper size pieces. At a time when eating out is getting pricier with price increases from every direction, it is more important for the consumer to get value for money. This might aswell have been an 8 piece bucket meal, also what's with the Christmas edition bucket design in the middle of February? Highly unprofessional for a franchise branch that represents a Global company. I usually don't have issues with this branch, but had to highlight those 2 small bite size pieces

Shocking really. Could have ordered from anywhere on this Wednesday night, can't have been busy & ordered a tower fillet meal but recieved whatever this was with no hashbrown. 9 quid for meal? This is not on.

Ordered a boneless meal for one.
Also ordered a flaming wrap.
They forgot to give me the side for the meal. The wrap was dry. The place looked under staffed and too busy. They didn't have enough staff to be efficient. Food was OK but definitely could have been way better considering the name kfc.

Awful shop. Poor customer service and worst of all, found a hair in my zinger burger.  😡. Definitely don’t recommend

D's Kitchen

Krispy cream burgers succulan chicken wings saucy as can be and tender all in one. lets not forget the milkshakes and deserts had the orea and for an ex smoothy cafe worker they definarly got it right.Basically the food is so good you dont need to post a picture of it you will eat it up before you even think of picturing it. I call it excuisite fast food dining. fast food that is cooked fast enough but taste like you waited hours for it to be ready.  5 stars all round.mac and cheede is a different level

Came here to support the brothers business, however I can't lie the food was very poor. Ordered 2x somalian burger meals should be called soggy burgers. Took about 30 mins for food and made me feel 🤮. Very oily, messy and soggy.  Its a 1 time experience for me. Only way I would ever come back if he sells his mums hilib and baris like back in the days.

I don't know where to start from 4 what I have experienced in this D's!!! This was absolutely another level of everything from service to food. Clean and very friendly staff and delicious food. Man I have to say I can't remember the last time I feel so happy for a fast food place. #keepthehardwork

How do I get started, the flavours are impeccable. Wings have to be one of the best wings I’ve ever had, chicken falls of the bone, the sauce is just indescribable. Next the chips, nice and salted. Finally the burger, this is just insane, I got the somali fried chicken burger and man it didn’t disappoint at all. The special sauce in there with extremely soft buns, its amazing. All that and a drink for £10, you ain’t getting them prices no where else. Honestly an amazing place. Easy 9/10 for me.

I first wanna say, I’ve read half of the negative comments and being a regular here I can ensure you majority of them aren’t true. Honestly speaking, if you’re looking for a proper food spot then this is the place for you. You don’t find places that do the Somali fried burger and I guarantee it won’t disappoint. D goes lengths for customer service and customer satisfaction physically and verbally to give you the most warm welcoming. Well deserved 5* stars from me.

Slims chicken is known for their fresh crispy chicken & their wide range of sauces from ranch to blue cheese & to buffalo sauce.

The chicken was crispy, tender and cooked to perfection😍 we ordered two burgers, chicken tenders, wings and a wrap. The portion sizes were decent and filling. This is a cute lunch spot.

@syrianfoodies's review of Slim Chickens Marylebone on Instagram

Slim Chickens

I visited Slim Chicken on Saturday. It was crowded with customers. However, we manage to get a seat to dine in. Non-veg served here is halaal. We ordered mix & match 5 & 5 Meal. The slim tenders & wings were crunchy and tasty. However, I found a few tender pieces were not cooked properly. I didn't expect this from Slim Chicken. Crowded customers would be the reason for this to serve faster. Otherwise, everything was good.

They have dine-in and takeaway options as well. They have Tender chicken, Sandwiches, Wings, Salads & Wraps, Sides, and Shakes. Meals are served with Texas toast, seasoned fries, house sauces & a bottomless soda.

A decent place for a quick and tasty lunch if you avoid the peak lunch period and don't want to spend too long there as it seems to be full of kids most of the time so can get a bit noisy. The chicken tenders tasted fresh and was cooked really well (not dry) as were the fries. The seasoning on the chicken can be a tad salty at times so the sauces are a must. Ordering through the kiosk machines was easy and pretty quick, I like the idea of taking a table number and scanning it to your order if you're dining in. Portion sizes are ok for the money you're paying and slightly better than other eateries in the area.

Not the greatest of places I have visited to eat. Not the cleanest either, the toilets were vile oh my daze 🤢

The food wasn't too bad but could be better! Not impressed with the service either as the ladies at the till were not the most efficient I have come across.

I enjoyed the inferno sauce though that came with the it.

The bottomless drink station only had 2choices out of the 5 so wasn't really much to offer.

Great location though, walking distance from Selfridge's and the Selfridge's carpark closes at 10pm so beware! There are other eating outlets available along the road.

Am sorry but I don't think I will be back here 😞

As I was in Central London, I decided to continue my search for the best fried chicken possible.

My first impression of Slim Chickens was good - it was busy, with a nice style to the decorations, resembling a 1950s American diner. All the chicken is Halal. Unlike many other chicken eateries, they still have table service rather than the Bluetooth pagers that buzz when your food is ready, which felt nice and a bit old-fashioned. The wait for the food after the drink had arrived was a long one, however.

As always, I order a chicken burger meal with three wings - however, they had run out of wings (it wasn't even the end of the day). I substituted a popcorn flavoured milkshake as a drink instead of the bottomless soft drink that is the default, for an extra two pounds. This was an excellent decision as the milkshake was very good, if a little too sweet.

The staff member was evidently new, and took a great deal of time to work out how to use the till, with no one to help her. What was meant to be a fast, slick operation really wasn't.

Let's get down to the burger - very good in many ways: the brioche bun is superior to normal bread buns in every way - it has more of a dense, bagel-like texture that isn't as fluffy as the bread buns. The chicken had been fried perfectly to a rich brown colour (so many places slightly under fry) , and the spices in the coating were delicious - BUT...

The burger was the size of half a piece of chicken, let alone an actual fillet! (See picture) for a burger that is priced at £6.50, I really did feel short-changed; it was over in a couple of mouthfuls. Very good quality but tiny.

The chips were good enough rather than delicious - warm and less than crisp, and not very plentiful. Overall, with three chicken wings a burger meal would have been £14 with the standard bottomless soft drink, which makes it cost roughly twice what KFC charges at the moment. It's slightly cheaper than other high end chicken diners though.

The size of the burger and the wait for the food (20 minutes) are my only criticisms. I love that they have hand-spun milkshakes - it seems that many chicken restaurants only have soft drinks, and I like a shake with my burger, so they get positive marks there.

If you like good quality chicken, great place only downside is portions are small, staff do not greet customers with a smile and the orders can be mixed (was in my case).

It’s also priced on the high end of what you expect to pay for fried chicken. Customer service needs improving that’s all.

We serve chicken from a supplier certified as Halal by HFA.

Galitos Piri Piri - Streatham

The best chicken I’ve ever had, literally! They make it so tasty especially the spicy ones, and the price is amazingly reasonable! Every time we are in south London we have to make a trip here too for a taste of Galitos!

The peri peri chicken is just fantastic. The chicken is cooked to perfection and the rice is so flavoursome. If you like it spicy, have the hot sauce, you won’t be disappointed. Incredibly low price too. Highly recommended!!!

They serve some of the best chicken meals i ever ate at a fair price. Both the Man and the Lady are very polite and calm. I would recommend trying them at least once :))

Very tasty halal chicken and good sized portions.

The staff that work here are very generous, many times they give you more food then you ask for and their prices are also very good. It is also HMC certified which is why I go here.

We are HMC approved. This means our entire menu and supply-chain is certified Halal according to HMC standards. No traces of pork or alcohol in the store.

Galitos

KFC London - Earls Court Road

Awful. The chicken on the burger wasn't fresh. The whole place smells awful. It's dirty too. The toilets are disgusting. At least the manager gave me a refund but it will take 1 week to come back to my account apparently.

Most ridiculous service/ system ever. Order kiosk does NOT provide a paper receipt. Apple Pay confirmed payment, including on-phone confirmation. Manager outright and rudely refused to accept the order. Reason: “it’s not showing up on the system”. No acknowledgment that the system is at fault here. Order was refused, insinuating that we are at fault. Worst customer service experience in a very VERY long time.

Wings were overseasoned, dry and didn’t feel fresh. The place itself was crowded. All the tables were either taken or dirty and since the place was understaffed the guy at the desk refused to clean a table (but was kind enough to give me 2 tissues to clean it myself). A disgrace for KFC. Do yourself a favor and stay away.

I got kids popcorn chicken bucket. They run out of pineapple, chips was burnt and pop corn chicken was cold. Staff said there was someone there who was new and that’s why there’s issues with order. Not acceptable. Visit at own risk. The burger which they replaced for the pineapple looked broken and eaten what even is that. Very disappointing. Service was also super slow. -10/10.

Overall - Sub par customer service and poor cleanliness have left me unimpressed. Unless you really want KFC in Earl's Court and getting take away I'd suggest go elsewhere.

THE PLACE - When I initially came in there was rubbish everywhere. There was a guy cleaning but it's really not a great first look. I didn't feel comfortable putting my bag down.

THE STAFF - Generally polite. I ordered 3pc chicken on it's own to eat in. The guy serving gave it to me in a take away bag with no tissues or wet wipes. One thing I noticed while waiting was that a few customers didn't get the right order and one member of staff was suggesting the customer wasn't being clear (which could be true but again doesn't look great).

THE FOOD - I can only judge the chicken which tasted fine. It's KFC after all. It was a bit greasier than other places though so having the wipes would have really helped.

Amigos Burgers & Shakes

Tried to order off Click & Collect and only three branches available on a website that’s barely functional… no drivers on Uber Eats either, so I ended up going hungry. Normally love your food, would recommend updating your site to be more user friendly in the future

Had the Jacob burger. Overall would say its a 8/10. Very buttery taste but still flavoursome.

4 stars because the chips were terrible. Very starchy and resembled a cardboard taste. Hope they improve that - but would have the burger again

The food is 5 stars however would have to give 1 star rating and will not be coming back 100% due to menu prices changed. I’ll show you a picture below what the original menu was but was changed few days later. The prices all gone up by £1+

Picked up some chips and burgers today.. fresh and good quality. Attentive service. Nice!!

If i could give it a - 0 I would. These reviews are all fake the food is absolutely disgusting. Meat is fake. Not a real meat. Absolutely waste of £20.

Amigos

Pepe's

Used to be a go to place for taste and value.
Now a days, you have to at least wait 10min for the food.
Had a little bit of a funky smell

I've visited this place several times and I've never been disappointed in food. They have a good variety of meal options which are all delicious and tasty. The manager is very friendly and helpful, and so are all of the staff. The chicken breast pita meal is one of my favourites and their garlic sauce is the best !! Good price, highly recommended.

Dont use. Was served brown lettuce in both brugers. One must ask how low the standards are when lettuce that is going bad is being used.

Best gourmet beef burger in town

@oohwee.eats's review of Backyard BBQ’z Leytonstone on Instagram

Backyard BBQ’z

The Angus burger is excellent. The smoked chicken is good. Now they have Tex Bites with so you can get the crispy wings. The staff are very friendly and helpful

Amazing food, with really exquisite taste. Collection times given are always accurate. Went for the box meal, brilliant portions, lovely desserts, mojitos.. All have exceptional taste, but the chops deserve a special mention, absolutely brilliant.. Been going regularly since I first visited in 2020. Keep up the good work guys. Thank you

Absolutely amazing food. The chilli wagyu burger is juicy and cooked just right with the chillis adding a great natural kick rather than some chemical stale sauce. The lamb chops are generous in size and once again incredibly juicy. Coming off the bone with ease, full of flavour. The wings have great marinate and you can taste the difference with the use of a real flame grilled BBQ. Great value for money when you consider the quality of the meat they use and portion size. Fantastic customer service too, very friendly and going above & beyond. Will definitely be ordering from them plenty in the future.

Juicy grilled chicken with a sticky marinade that the chips love to mix with. The Angus is delish with tlc given to the condiments. We are in silence the the pictures we took were an inconvenience to the party in our mouths. These guys are flavour masters. No corners cut. Delish. Eat and thank God. Please keep up your quality! I’ll be reviewing the wagyu separately as it deserves it’s own post. I have to schedule my wagyu fix so I don’t abuse my cholesterol levels. Today was the day it was NOT scheduled for. I look forward to my wagyu return.

Best Burgers in the Area!

Service is amazing too!

Glad you guys are around serving the finest of meats, drinks and not forgetting the mouth-watering Cake Slices.

The Wagyu Chilli Beef Burger is a winner!

Shake Shack Gatwick

If your new to shake shack you need to understand something before you order , the burgers are on the smaller side but are very delicious. This is not an issue just for this particular shake shack it’s a pretty standard across the franchise. I ordered the stack shack which is basically a double burger which was delicious and had a 50/50 which is lemonaid and Ice team which sounds like a odd combination but is actually very good.

We had some chicken burgers while waiting for out flight at the Gatwich branch, and it was good!
Service was fast and the food came in hot and tasty. Definitely give it a go if you’re looking for somewhere to eat before your flight

First time trying the breakfast option: it was tasty and made to order. Fries for brekkie was interesting though was nice and crunchy; would recommend. Overall it is filling before an early flight.

Bear in mind it is on the premium side; the two burgers and fries were circa £18-20 - could be standard pricing or airport tax. If you are on a budget best to bring your own food or get a meal deal from boots.

Service was friendly and freshly made. It could be due to the early hours though felt a bit understaffed in terms of clearing the trays around.

They have quite a bit of seating area available, though does fill up fast even during the early hours.

If you have an empty water bottle you can fill it up near their front or near the toilets.

I had a pleasant breakfast at Shake Shack at Gatwick Airport after a long journey. I had the Herb mayo bacon fries, hot dog and a cup of tea  which the perfect amount which was nice that Shake Shack finally has hot drinks as I was a former employee of Shake Shack and hot drinks did not existed. The lady behind the till was very lovely and we understood each other.

2 milkshakes and 1kids sized burger for a whopping £25 really was not a nice way to start a holiday. Very overpriced and we were told that if we ordered fries, it would take 10 minutes longer. Unfriendly staff. Long queues. Won’t be supporting them in the future.

The chicken we use in our Chicken Shack and Chicken Bites in every UK Shack is halal-certified.

However, we must highlight that we do also sell non-halal menu items in our business - as such, our beef is not halal. We hope this helps but if you have any more questions, please do reach out to us.

KFC London - Leicester Square

Apart from the long wait during the lunch period I was not at all happy with the temperature of my food as well as the portion sizes. When I left I found out the potion sizes were small apart from the burger. The burger and wings tasted good but that was about it. Being in a popular location in the heart of London this should be much better and food should be delivered quickly and hot or very warm. Not lukewarm. Will not be coming back here any time soon and I love KFC. Oh and lastly this KFC does not accept survey discounts from your receipts. Shocking I know as they said they don't use it anymore. It's strange how others do.

The place is a disgrace to KFC Brand name. The seating area was like a tip site. The bins were hidden by the piles of waste wrapping paper. The chairs and tables were beyond believe with food waste and dirt. Yes I asked for a manager, but was  left with a team leader who did not want to hear my comments and complain about the mess. He did state it was in hand. Maybe, but I'm sure the food inspector would have had a few questions on the state of the shop. I hope someone of responsibility reads my comments and take firm action to getting this outlet back in good order. This food is getting more expensive than ever. We deserve a clean place to sit and enjoy our meals.

Ok value for money but food was warm after a 10 min wait, not worth complaining. Staff seemed more interested in chatting to each other than serving Customers. Toilets were dirty and no soap or loo roll in Ladies.

I've always found KFC in Caribbean superior, because the chicken seems cleaner. No slime and the entire skin and coating doesn't come off with the first bite. This KFC is good. Chicken cooked well. No slime and coating stays put. Only issue it's a bit hectic. If you needed the loo, I'd advise you to go before you go, because there's always a big queue. Also someone got locked in and needed help to escape. Lol

I would give zero stars. The worst customer service. The fries apparently has to take 25mins to cook. The queue was so long and my number to collect was completely past, no receipt paper left in machines. I was ignored by the server who was giving the food out. She wouldn’t check my number or ask. Awful presentation with food. How is this still open??

Juice Junkiez

Amazing vegan menu - I had a shrimp bubble waffle (savoury) ! It tasted delicious and I contemplated getting one for home.

Had to wait 15mins after ordering and the ticket number system was all over the place. Prices were on the high side else would have got another.

Food was good but the customer service was awful. The guy who was operating was super rude and  misbehaved with us. He asked if we wanted chili on top and I said “Yes” but he was offended that I didn’t say “Please”. Like c’mon you can’t force someone to say what you want. I am visiting from US and this gives me a very bad impression of customer service in UK. He started giving me lessons on manners. These people themselves need to learn basic manners and the owner should take notice of this.

I don't know about the food as I've never tried it but cocktails are good and served in the same fruit. The watermelon one with rum was quite strong but piña colada was nice. If there is a lot of people ordering you might need to wait a bit as the customer service is not very fast.

Stopped by with some friends and the lady serving his was really really really friendly. Service with a smile and some lovely conversation

My friend bought a dragon fruit juice and really really enjoyed it. The lady serving us let us also sample some vegan Nutella they had and it was really nice, and I don't even like Nutella

Best juice i've had (pineapple)! No packaging required. Amazing flavours. Vegan friendly. List goes on... Simply the coolest juice company ever! I cannot wait to try their other juices, Watermelon looks great, when i'm back in Camden!

Our chicken is Halal. And we have loads of vegan options.

KFC Hackney - Mare Street

Telling all deliveroo riders. Guys don't go this shop because they don't care about your time and they disrespect every riders. Especially INDIAN AND SRI LANKA STUFF VERY RUDE AND BAD BEHAVIOURS AS WELL.(girls and old lady) if you guys boycott this shop for 2 or 3 days.. it would be good for every riders and delivery drivers as well.

So i ordered from this exact kfc last week on uber eats. I left a kind review as i didn’t have any issues towards the delivery. After i had left the review i realised that kfc took a £4.50 tip from me without my permission, i have tried to get it back but i’m unable to. i’m a school student so i’m not able to freely give out £4.50 as i need the money. i’m disappointed.

Not going to order from uber eats kfc anymore they forgot to add chicken popcorn and my child was very hungry craving those. Tried to call but line always busy.

£5.50 for a single vegan burger with some soggy limp bread.

Could whack some onion in there? Hash brown?

It’s the equivalent in size and taste of a mini fillet that used to cost 99p

boss lady was certi, food was leng leng had 2 vacate the premises. didn't pass the hygiene test tho. had 2 wait a little longer but 100% worth da wait

Grizzlys Canning Town

Delicious food, quality ingredients and excellent service plus generous portions all reasonably priced. Owners know what they're doing and this place stands out from the plethora of burger joints popping up everywhere. My new favourite burger joint. Definitely will be visiting again.

Amazing food, gorgeous decor. My favourite was the delicious chops. So convenient to have a Grill/Burger joint nearby. Highly recommend it 👌

One of the best restaurants for grilled quality food I have been to lately, loved the grizzly bear decor inside and spacious seating area which was perfect for a family lunch. The grilled chicken wings, chop and half chicken with mango and lime were really tasty and impressive mocktails too especially the passion flavour one kicks a punch! Friendly staff and great service. Would definitely recommend that you pay a visit to this family friendly joint!

I’m very pleased to see a Grizzlys closer to home as the Plumstead branch serves some of the finest wings you can find in London! This new branch is no different as the wings were just as good. Try their fiery wings if you like it nice and spicy and their coleslaw burger packs a good punch. Me and the lads had no complaints and will definitely be returning for more. The place looks amazing with lots of attention to detail.

The staff were very helpful and friendly and plenty of them which is always nice.

Nice looking place, friendly staff, interesting menu, food was ready quickly and the price was very good. Only shame is that there is no beer and the sauces are a bit unusual, would prefer something a bit more traditional

Grizzlys

Yummy Yummy.
I love their Burgers and their recipe. My recent order as usual food was delicious and yummy. Staff behaviour was really friendly and helpful. They guide me good and restaurant was clean and tidy.
Highly Recommended

Disgusting overpriced food. Absolutely do not recommend and the lady who served us was very rude. The only decent thing was chicken nuggets and fries. The photo of burger I have shared is of a burger which is no form of chicken in my opinion. One of the worst food I have experienced.very very disappointed.

In response to the owner's reply, the male member of staff  offered to get another burger when we showed him the pink, uncooked burger, but i would not risk it and requested for a partial refund instead which would have been fair. He refused saying that he does not have the authority to do that and asked me to leave my phone number for the owner to contact me. What good is that going to do us when we travelled one hour to go to this place, and ending up getting such horrible food. Also the burger owner is referring to, yes, i did ask the lady before ordering that is this processed meat and she said yes, but at no point she mentioned "buttermilk", as stated by the owner's reply. Whatever it was, it was disgusting and i honestly do not recommend any burgers from this place. As i already said in my reviews the chicken nuggets and fries were ok. I have taken time to explain everything in detail to save other people from having the awful experience we ended up having.

Great place, food quality is very good and tasty! Selection of drinks including tango ice blast. Burgers are all delicious!

My meal cost me £6.28. I got a breakfast roll, fries and a coffee.
At first glance I feel as though the price is expensive, especially since the coffee is small, but the fries were a good portion as was the roll. Taste wise, the roll was nice but the beef was a bit salty. The fries were cold and the coffee tasted funny as though they used powdered milk.

Absolutely appalled and disgusted at the quality of the food I received, clearly no care was taken in making my order as soon after my order arrived pit stop had closed, so clearly my order was rushed. Pit stop should be embarrassed by the way they prepared my order and ashamed that they think the way my burger was prepared was acceptable to serve to customers, absolute shambles. My first time ordering from these guys, never again. Will be leaving a google review as my reviews get hundreds of views, I have local guide status in the Ilford area. If anyone is going to order from Pit Stop they best ensure they do not do it a good hour or two before they close otherwise you will be served with leftovers. I have taken pictures of the state my burger arrived in. These guys are supposed to do fairly premium burgers, I’m better off buying a burger for two quid from your basic chicken and chips shop than pay the £9 I did for this joke of a meal. Also, they did not provide two cheese slices and not anywhere near enough onions as described in their prep duct description, no sign of mustard either, absolutely horrendous

UPDATE:
In response to my original review the restaurant clearly has low standards when it comes to the presentation of their food. Even though I have attached images, they have not addressed the poor state in which my food was delivered and prepared. I have never encountered such bad customer service! Will never be ordering from them again.

Everything on our menu is Halal. We are HMC certified, the certificate is in the window.

Brilliant food. Discover this restaurant while visiting the area and it turns out great discovery. Great flours and choices. Nice and Tasty. Lovely guy on service, i think his name was Bilaal.. Looks to me guy from midland who properly understand food and customer support...

Overall loved the place.

Pleasently surprising. The quality of the food is exceptional as well as the service. The place is kept tidy. And hygiene rules are followed as you could see in to the food prep/kitchen area.
The decor is very pleasent. Prices are average and it has a slight Nandos feel about the place.
The only negative point I could find is that the spicy rice is not spicy enough but not negative enough to deduct a star.

They have a large extensive menu but I feel it’s slightly expensive. Regardless, the food I had was okay but it could have been better for that price I feel. They also have a good selection of drinks. But when you buy a meal you cannot pay extra and upgrade to the fanta ice drink you need to buy that separately which in my opinion is pointless. I think they could do with having more sauces too. But overall it was okay. Yet however the food I found was not excessively salty which is a very good thing!

Got a burger meal for £11 to eat-in.
I was starving and really looking forward to it. Shop looks awesome and good reviews.
But it was just extremely disappointing... I even had to bring the burger back and point out that the burger I had was missing toppings like gherkins (it looked nothing like the pictures on the screen). Burger was very dry and just such a let down for the price. Chips and steamed veg was ok. Again... Terrible burger which is what I was there for.

Awesome place with tasty food I suggest every one to visit this place and the staff was really good mouth watering dishes never had before😄

Chilli Flames

On our move in day we ordered from here as it was local. We ordered burgers and chicken with chips. The burger looked delicious, fresh salad, just cooked hamburger and chips were nice and hot.  Chicken has a nice flavour and wings have a great kick. Great service from the young lady who was very busy. Would recommend and go back for a takeaway again.

We came here last night and got 5 grilled buffalo wings, sweet potato fries and a 6 southern fried wings meal. Everything was really tasty and cooked well. The flat wings were also bigger than expected! The venue was clean and Rehaan’s customer service was amazing, very attentive and friendly! Would definitely recommend!

My wife and daughter tried Grizzlys a little while ago and told me it was the best burgers, salads and chicken they've tried in a long time, better than nandos. They've just brought me back a selection and it's amazing!
Highly recommended it. Shall go back for more on a regular basis. Fab!

The service is really good. However I didn't find the ribs to be cooked enough. I asked for them to take it back and cook a bit extra. They happily obliged and then the ribs were much better. I'd give them 5 stars next time if they get the food right at the first attempt.

We come to London a lot to try out different food spots, this has gotta be one of the best, the service was amazing and the food was something else. You gotta try this spot from Bournemouth!

Cheatmeals Rayners lane

First time trying - amazing

The chips are warm, seasoned perfectly, and fat with potato
The bun isn't dry, is buttery, soft and large
The meat is succulent and isn't 50% batter
They don't skimp on cheese, which makes your burger and fries x10 better

Reasonably priced aswell, unlike other fast food chains

Excellent and clean restaurant.
Team pro and helpful.
Burgers nice, sides well done

Excellent service topped with the juiciest burger and fresh, light fries. Great local lunch option

Absolutely disgusting the meat was red and the chips were freezing cold paid £1.50 for a little can of coke and just so everyone knows the cheat meal fries comes with jalapeños and red onion all went in the bin!

This is what they call loaded fries, soggy limp onions ontop of some wack re-fried chips. Burger salty & flavorless too. Big disappointment. Used to slap but this is a joke

Wingstop

Great addition to Staines. Not the best wings but great variety of flavours. Boneless chicken I thought was better and buffalo fries are a must. Also delicious churros! I found the service very friendly.

This is a new flash chicken place and is very modern and a nice addition to the high street.

It's not the fastest service with quite a few people sitting around waiting for orders but the food when it came was pretty nice and fresh.

The churos were nice however seemed a bit  undercooked on the inside. Also the music was way too loud.

Amazing staff very friendly and polite and extremely helpful.

Also the food was spot on the tenders flavoursome.

Would come back again to try the other ranges of flavours.

Nice addition to Staines

I do recommend if you love your wings and the boneless I tried for first time definitely worth it! If you are in healthcare and have blue light card take it with you and you get discount!

AJ took our order, very useful and helped with deals and getting what we want. All staff giving the food out to waiting customers were fast and diligent as very busy but Mohammad Salal stood out reassuring customers and making sure orders were right.

Yes, we are Halal. Our Halal chickens are supplied to us by Gafoors of Preston. They are authorised by the Islamic Institute of Jurisprudence and are one of the UK's leading suppliers of Halal chicken.

PHAT Bite

Excellent food. Service could be better but as it's a new place I'm sure it will come with more experience.

Food was perfect the wild mango sauce is just amazing everyone needs to try it. Was very inviting and welcoming would definetly recommend. Overall was a brilliant experience

Amazing experience. The handsome fellow at the till was very helpful. Advised me on the smash burger, the hot and creamy doner. Best food in london and prices are very friendly especially in this living crisis. Will be here regularly!!

Went in on the grand opening although busy the service was very good, everyone was friendly and very welcoming! Food was delicious and interiors are gorgeous! Must go if you want a tasty yet pocket friendly meal!

Banging food, great people, and a service was spot on. Prices are decent, and I’ve tried most things on their menu, and I can’t fault it! Keep it up

Everything on our menu is halal and we don’t serve alcohol. 

Phat Bite

I've been a customer of Phat Bite for over a year now and I can't say enough good things about them. The food is always fresh and delicious, the service is always friendly, and the prices are very reasonable. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great meal!

Ordered from here for the first time today and can only say WOW amazing one of the best burgers I have had. The loaded fries was also very good. Definitely going to be ordering again......... my wife had the buttermilk chicken and said was excellent 👌🏻

This place just gets you going back all the time. The gourmet burger is really delicious, very flavoursome and satisfies your cravings.
The smash burger is unlike any other ones I've tried from various places. Loaded box worth every penny...... Literally taste in every bite!

I have been there a few times already since they've opened. They have been consistent in their quality of service and food. Always spot on.

I'm working through my list from their menu😋😜

Wow

Just wow

The word 'PHAT' says it all. The food here was amazing, Alhamdulillaah!

Only been open for the last 2 weeks, and the Brothers here truly have done something to create  'a taste in every bite'!

Check this place out guys!

A very good place. The loaded box for 12.99 is an excellent deal and the service is brilliant

Everything on our menu is halal and we don’t serve alcohol.

SMASH

Excellent burgers. I tried the PB&J, Double smash and NYC. Patties were done to perfection and burgers were rich in taste.

Getting the ratio right in a burger makes all the difference. I'm tempted to return and see I they do as good a job with their chicken burgers!

Finally Green Street has a decent restaurant. I grew up here and there was absolutely nothing to eat apart from the run down restaurants. My family throughly enjoyed their food. The burgers were full of flavour and the chips were cooked to perfection. The staff were extremely friendly and polite. Keep up the good work!

Small burger place in Green street. Local parking is easy enough- decent seating area and decor- no music when we went there- wide range of burgers and sides- had the double smash burger meal costs £10- burger is a bit small and no veg inside so quite squishy- fries standard- and sauces only supplied as single sachets-  still hungry afterwards so had the Mac burger- smaller burger with even smaller patties- taste is decent enough for both but better burger places out there

Generally not a fan of burgers but this was excuse the pun, a smashing burger. The smash style burger has a unique taste which beats all gourmet burgers. The fries are amazing And I could easily had two portions.

Lastly service was top drawer, extremely friendly and attentive.

Honestly don't know why I left it so late to leave a good review. But if you're into a GOOD smash burger this is the place to eat at. Food is always delivered fresh and hot, chips always crispy. Been eating here since it first opened and the quality has remained top notch. Their smash burgers are the best.
