  • "Food was actually amazing, best chicken burger I've ever had. Chips were 10/10. Waiters were nice and friendly. Only thing I'd change I'd the inside of the restaurant."
  • "The food is super tasty and real comfort food. Just everything great in one tasty package. It's value for money compared to their competitors. Hubbox used to be our go to until we found this place. They were very kind and remade our whole order again from scratch due to shortage of Deliveroo drivers."
