Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return for the smash burger above all, describing patties that are juicy, well seasoned and caramelised, with a heated bun and plenty of toppings. Close behind are the loaded fries, including the cheesy curly and mixed versions, which several call fresh, crispy and good value. Peri wings and donner wraps also get a mention. The main caveats concern the burger and the room. One reviewer found the fries loaded with grease and the Ringo burger too sweet on a second visit, and another found the chips slightly cold. Two would add gherkins or tomatoes, and one wanted more crunch. Several say the dining area is quiet and spacious, though one noted many uncleaned tables and another said it could use some care. A diner who ordered through Uber says the food still arrived hot after a long delivery, and one reviewer says the owner checked in on the family while they ate.

“Highly recommend this burger spot! They make very delicious food, the shop is quite spacious with a good seating setup whether you’re going with friends/ family with young children. You can park locally and have a nice time as the shop is fairly quiet.”

“Edit: Tried for a second time and the experience was rather different. The fries were nice but absolutely loaded with grease. The Ringo burger was too sweet but the piri piri burger was marginally better. 6.5/10. The best loaded fries I've had yet. Incredibly tasty, good portion and fresh! The smash burger was good too, could do with a bit of crunch, maybe gherkins, tomatoes or lettuce but the patties were juicy. Took nearly half an hour through Uber and the food was still hot! This is my new favorite place, will be trying out a lot of their stuff on the menu.”

“This place has great food and service! The owner was very kind and patient with me and my family when ordering. While in line, a regular customer who was sitting near me suggested getting the smashburger and it did not disappoint. The prices are great and the owner was quick to check to see if we needed anything while eating. It would be awesome to see this place grow. It is definitely deserved. Oh and also the cheesy curly fries are great!”
- Adam Neilson
“In town on a work trip and needed a late lunch. Really well priced and genuinely one of the best smash burgers I've had in a long time. Chips with a nice little kick to them and properly fresh and crispy. Highly recommend”
