• "Need more staff one man running around doing 99%of jobs so not doing any very well."

Value

Pros:

• "The burgers are 14 quid each, for that you get a frozen burger, 5 frozen onion rings, the slightly better quality frozen ones."

• "We genuinely waited for an hour and a half for our starters, which were not good."
• "My friends then had to order burgers one of which was burnt and the other had limp awful lettuce in it."
