> We’ve visited the Burger Joint several times under the previous owners and always had great meals, so we were really looking forward to coming back. Unfortunately, this visit was very disappointing. I will start by saying the staff member on shift was friendly and gave good service. This is solely about the food. Sadly, the food wasn’t what it used to be. The BFC chicken was dry, tasted like it had been cooked in old oil, and was more like a schnitzel than the fried chicken burger we remembered. The cheese sauce on the chips and gravy was watery and lacked flavour, and the dairy-free cheese, Ashleigh Burgess, 3 months ago
> We made our way to the Burger Joint line of by accident because our initial lunch plans fell through. We immediately liked the friendly outdoor area and kind waitstaff. We’re not the easiest of customers, with two children under five who had been out swimming for the past couple of hours. They accommodated our weird requests (fried egg on a plate) without even a sideways glance. The Burgers were heavenly. My husband and I both had the fried chicken burger, as we are usually cautious of a new burger joint.. we did not need to worry. Perfectly crafted and well sauced. My son loved his smiley fac, Brie Liberty, 4 years ago
> We have ordered 2 kids burgers, 1 kimi cheese, 1 bomb and fries. The fries seems to be made in the old oil. The kids burgers were OK, but ours had too many souce and very little beef. I would expect bigger burgers for that price tag. Can't recommend this place., Alexander Fedyushkin, 9 months ago
