Undercooked pizza and they rip you off when you ask for extra chips and can. They add a meal deal on to your bill and charge you extra. When you complain they don't care. Avoid. FSA should take a look

"Big John's" is a popular fast food chain in the United Kingdom, known for its wide variety of great meals, including pizza, fried chicken, kebabs, and more. The chain has several locations in Birmingham, offering a casual dining experience and takeaway options. The menu at Big John's typically includes a range of fast food items such as burgers, wraps, fish and chips, and desserts. It's a popular choice for quick, convenient meals, especially among locals and students. We ordered at exactly 10.30 pm. Received both items ordered within an hour . The fish and chips was really great and the fish fresh. The Doner Chicken on a naan had the most awesome flavours. Will definitely order again. The chef deserves a special mention and five stars for him too .

Attention when paying by card. After ordering and paying with a debit card (signature card), it was claimed that the payment was not accepted. I then paid the bill in cash. However, the amount was still deducted from my card. So it's best to pay cash there. It is even better to stay away. The taste is not a feast for the palate. There are definitely better fast food places.

Expected a lot from them especially after reading their article in the news recently. The chips were never ending and the burger was sort of OK. The server didn't even gave proper napkins to clean up after the meal. Also the fact there were a couple of vagrants asking for spare change and food inside the shop, which was quite annoying. They should have been restricted outside the area.

I ordered a Chicken Kebab with Naan ,first the chicken so dry and naan fully cold and at end after wasting 20 min they served the food like an animals. Furthermore the place of chips is so dirty and one of the main things they cook chips and chicken in same oil. BigJohns play with religions. They just love with money,in front of them don’t have care of food hygiene ,safety or any thing else. I am going to request Health and Safety department they took actions against them . If you going to place any order there must check their food and hygiene and food quality.

You know what is disgraceful to see that most of the staff are Muslim and my children are Muslim and you denied a young Muslim child the opportunity to use the toilet and relieve himself. All due to your arrogance absolutely appalling No child or pregnant lady should be denied the right to use the toilet in any establishment. The way you have no humility or humanity for younger children under the age of 10 is absolutely absurd. My child was seriously upset and the harm you caused him emotionally I hope that you seek forgiveness whoever turned him away. Absolutely ridiculous you have a toilet for customers we were ordering food as well you denying my child made me go to the baguette store next door and left my child to wee in an open space because he could not hold it there let alone go to the bullring.
