  • "They offer unlimited chips with steak... The chips are so dry you can't eat them without sauce.... I couldn't eat the chips on my plate never mind asking for more chips."
  • "When you're paying £9.50 for a breakfast you’d expect it to be hot not lukewarm."
  • "No more refill chips. The chips are now actually fries, and not good ones at that."

  • "40 quid down the drain."
