“Ordered on uber eats and only live a mile away. Food came fairly fresh but portions sizes are tinyyy almost like a kids meal but adult prices. Way too expensive for what you get and food is bang average. Chips came very overcooked.”
- Harris Pervez
“Food tasted good , delivered cold but on time. Nothing extra ordinary or special to charge around £30 for a share box. Prices could have been lower”
- Abbas Aftab

“This was our first visit to MLK after hearing about it from friends for some time. We were welcomed by Abdullah who was very welcoming, very helpful with his recommendations and kindly threw in a portion of tenders for the kids. The loaded fries was the perfect start, the flavour of the meat comes through, it’s very good quality meat, and definitely fresh. The Angus burger was brilliant - no unnecessary toppings, quite simplistic because the freshness and quality of the meat didn’t need complicated recipes. The chicken burger was excellent too - cannot fault it at all - chicken was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside. Although we preferred the meat because it’s rare to find good quality beef burgers with fresh meat consistently… for that reason - we give MLK 5 stars Abdullah was very friendly, and you could tell he genuinely cared about us enjoying the meal - very polite, and very respectful.. Overall great place to eat - would come back again in a heart beat.”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers point most often to the beef burgers, with the Angus burger and the "You Got Beefed" burger singled out for fresh, juicy, well-seasoned meat and a soft bun. Loaded fries come close behind, praised for flavourful meat, and the chicken burgers are called crispy outside and tender inside. Others name the triple smash burger, curly fries, buffalo and BBQ wings, and a toastie, and several mention the halal food and large portions. The staff draw repeated praise as friendly and accommodating, including one who added tenders for the kids and another who quickly swapped regular fries for the curly ones ordered. Complaints centre on price and delivery. One reviewer found the portions tiny for the cost, with overcooked chips and average food, and another said a share box arrived cold and cost too much for what it was. A few also say food takes a while because everything is made fresh. One diner describes a fifteen minute wait that ended with a piping hot chicken sandwich that held its shape.
