Burger Quality
Pros:
"This was genuinely one of the best burgers I’ve had in the UK."
"The burgers were juicy and the flavor was incredible."
"We tried the standard burger which was excellent, tender and juicy meat and seasoned well with great flavour."
"Absolutely awesome burgers. You know how much better a five guys is over a BK? This is that much better over 5G again."
"Incredible burger, fries and milkshake available here."
"The burger meat combined with the patty recipe is awesome, pretty sure is locally sourced."
"Absolutely fantastic place. Tried the La Primera burger, which is what you see. With home made nachos and sauce."
Cons:
"Not bad burgers but way overrated. Not overly moist or flavourful patties."
"I was quite disappointed about the burger there. There was too much ketchup in my burger and it ruined the burger."
Fries and Side Dishes
Pros:
"The duck fries were also amazing—perfectly crispy and delicious."
"What really blew us away though was the cheese and bacon fries! They tasted incredible."
"1st visit, the burger was quite nice but I wasn't crazy about it. 2nd visit, hell yeah the duck fries are brilliant. Crispy and fluffy."
"The Vegan burger is an absolute must try! I usually need help finishing any burger but I ate it all. The chilli cheese fries were also amazing!"
Cons:
"Mac and cheese noodles too overcooked for my liking."
"Tried the Cajun fries but I feel as though they were the same as skin on fries but with some paprika added - not worth the higher price."
Service and Staff
Pros:
"The service was fab, with the woman taking our order, and having everything ready in about 10 minutes."
"Super friendly and cool staff too."
"The staff were so cool and friendly."
"Our server was so nice & helpful! He walked us through the menu & even told us how he gets his favorite burger!!"
"The staff are nice, the vibe is brilliant, and the burgers even better."
"Me and my girlfriend popped in for a bite to eat a few weeks ago and I must say I was absolutely blown away by how friendly the staff were!"
Cons:
"When I called to place my order, the guy who answered was clearly busy and had other customers in front of him who he chose to prioritise over me."
Vegan and Vegetarian Options
Pros:
"Really impressed that everything on the menu was available as a veggie option - absolutely no compromise on taste."
"Amazing options for vegans. Usually when reviews say that it's from your meat eating pal, who was pleased that there was one boring option for vegans. Notorious BRG is different and ACTUALLY has great vegan options."
"Love the menu. Every option you can choose a vegan version."
"This is by far the best burger, fries and shake joints in the town. All of their menu is available with vegan substitutes."
"Best vegan burgers I’ve ever had without a doubt!"
Cons:
No significant cons mentioned regarding vegan and vegetarian options.
Ambiance and Location
Pros:
"The location is pretty small, so large parties should probably do take out, but as a group of 5, it worked out well."
"When you walk into the little hole in the wall, it is very small and cosy, enough for 7 if you sit shoulder to shoulder."
"Great burger place! This is not a dining place, it's a take out/away with 7 available sitting stools. Not ideal to sit and eat, much better to grab your food and go elsewhere."
"The atmosphere is great feels like a local chippy with great food and amazing music."
Cons:
"However, the place is a hole, which is pity, also there's no toilet there, and I really think that a place like that, should have (you eat with your hands so you want to wash your hands before)."
"Whilst visiting an area nearby, saw this pop up on the map, and based on the reviews, 4.9, decided to make a 25-minute detour to try the food on a Sunday. On arrival, they said they were closed."
"The only downside of this amazing place is that it is small so keep this in mind if you plan to eat in."
