About The Lunch Box

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the burgers, with several praising a huge half pound burger loaded with cheese, bacon and salad, and calling the prices fair. Friendly staff come up almost as often, with the women behind the counter described as lovely and like chatting to old friends. The bacon egg sandwich and coffee get a mention as a dependable order, and the food is called delicious and cooked to perfection. Value divides opinion. One diner found two burgers slimy and lacking the texture of meat, throwing half away, and another felt two bacon rolls with a small slice of bacon and two coffees were poor value. Order and wait problems recur too: a bacon egg sandwich arrived in a roll and a black coffee came out white, one customer with a child was ignored at the counter and left for breakfast elsewhere, and another waited while later orders were served and the last roll went to someone else.

“Friendly staff, decent prices, and lovely food, can’t go wrong essentially if you’re already nearby. Had a big half pound burger loaded with cheese, bacon, and salad for only £8, bargain”

“Just had two burgers at £9 each ... Service was great but the burger sadly was not, for £9 I would expect a better burger, these were slimy as cheap burgers so didn't have the texture or taste of meat , I managed to eat half and threw the rest away unfortunately x”

“Was lured in by the smell of fried stuff on my way out of B&Q. Ladies serving were an absolute joy to be around, felt like chatting to old friends. Never been to one of these before, would definitely use this one again.”
