Burger Quality
Pros:
"The Nashville, very nice and had a heat to it."
"I had a fully loaded double patty burger and it was just heaven."
"The burgers we ordered were really good."
"Absolutely smashed it with the beef burger burgers would definitely be back again."
"The chicken burger i really liked and are different to the normal chicken burger."
"The smashville burgers I ordered were very tasty, I will be back."
"The burgers here are beautifully done, very tasty and a perfect size."
"The burgers are the best in Manchester, I'm certain of this, the whole menu beef and chicken burgers are amazing."
Cons:
"The classic, was average nothing special and I prefer the smash burger from food time."
"Food looked great but the flavours were bland and tasteless."
"The burger lacked sauce and spice seemed overpowering."
"One review I read mention the taste wasn't all that and I have to agree, there is room for improvement."
"The whole thing was dripping with grace to the point it was dripping through the bag."
"The burgers were okay, they weren't great."
"The whole niche is that it’s a smash burger place at a gas station that also sell American candy! I really enjoyed the loaded fries however the smashed burger which I doubled up lacked flavour and was really really greasy."
"However, be prepared to struggle with parking, waiting to be served roughly 15-20 min then waiting for your food a further 20-30 mins."
Service and Wait Times
Pros:
"Service was quick and efficient."
"Ate here on Sunday. Service at the counter top much, really helped me with a suitable meal for my young son."
"Lovely food would eat there again purely for how well the manager dealt with my call."
"The service was slow and confusing though as I think they cater for a lot of online orders and there seemed to be a lot of drivers waiting to collect food."
"The dirty burger from the secret menu was spot on."
"Came here last week and guess what im back again.. if ur a chicken lover...my fav x burger spicy with jalapenos and cheese..ufffff! And service is always on point."
"The burgers are 10/10!!! These guys really know how to put a burger together."
"Amazing burgers! Beautifully crafted with a crunchiness on the outside and succulent tender beef on the inside! Great experience! Great service and the food is to die for."
Cons:
"Service: Stood for ages as most staff in the back and another staff member obliviously stacking cans in the fridge."
"Only downside was I asked for salt pepper chips and I got regular ones😂."
"Food wasn't amazing. Went for a double chicken burger, the chicken was nothing out of the ordinary."
"Been here previously when it was in the bus, tried it at the petrol station and is totally different food."
"The size of the burgers i cant complain its not small. However, the burgers lack flavour i dont think they put any seasoning on the burger pattie its just very bland!"
"Wait is 45mins, no where to park, uncoordinated’ aggressive and male macho boys in cars’ trying to stare you out."
"How’s the burger’ like any other burger’ sesame food on the bun doesn’t make it better’ your patty is dry with oil on top to keep it moist."
"Food was cold and order was wrong, not only that the owners are the previous owners of the shell garage very very corrupt people don’t spend your money there !"
Packaging and Presentation
Pros:
"I like how the packaging is all cardboard and paper."
"Presentation is great, the shop looks fantastic and the food is presented well in cardboard packaging."
"Nice little burger joint that is situated in a petrol station."
"The food itself, probably the best burger you'll eat in Oldham."
"The location is fabulous! Down an industrial road, you find a bus next to a car cleaning area."
"As for the chips, no wonder they cover them in 3 different types of toppings."
"This burger joint in a grey double decker bus has all of the expectations of being a hidden gem."
"The burgers here are beautifully done, very tasty and a perfect size, although it is very expensive for what you get, it's got a very interesting american vibe."
Cons:
"The taco was nice but wasn’t packed correctly so was extremely messy."
"The burgers were okay, they weren't great. If you want to try this place order an hour before you go to pick up."
"Very basic for the price you pay. Not worth travelling 18 miles for (which we did)!"
"The burgers are the best in Manchester, I'm certain of this, the whole menu beef and chicken burgers are amazing. However, be prepared to struggle with parking, waiting to be served roughly 15-20 min then waiting for your food a further 20-30 mins."
"Tried this place out, wasn't able to sit in the bus due to the covid restrictions so had to sit in the car to eat."
"This place is cash only at the moment and limited parking spaces but the food is very tasty."
"Food is nice but the bus itself has a horrible smell upstairs with the fumes windows wouldn't open floor was very slippery and greasy same with tables and seating. Just could have been a little more hygienic upstairs clean wise."
"It's really busy so they are definitely doing something right. We didn't sit inside, it seemed very busy and compact."
