Big John's City in Birmingham

food was really nice delivery driver was really polite and professional , only thing they forgot my Coke I was on the late shift so I'm writing the review now

The driver told me to meet him on a canal to collect food

The curry sauce is frozen cold - served much smaller than usual - why?

This particular branch is absolutely awful. The seats are all ripped up, exposing the filler in the seats. There was an altercation between 2 men who came into Big Johns a few days ago, they were swearing at each other and pacing around the store, 1 of the guys was saying "ill punch you right now". I was absolutely terrified. I informed staff who watched behind the counter and didn't do anything! The stupid door isn't allowed to be closed, so you are sitting in this freezing cold temperature inside eating. They put the prices up, but the quality of the food is rubbish. Asked for chicken kebab and chips, hardly any chicken kebab, but more chips (its cheaper for them) and plenty of salad! The SEATING NEEDS TO URGENTLY BE REPAIRED! The damn door fixed. I was eating my food a guy came up to me asking me for a quid. I dont carry cash on me. I try to help the homeless whenever i can, but the truth is, whenever I go here i get it every time! I will never come to this establishment again. Its absolutely awful.

Delicious SF chicken, chips could use more salt and vinegar as selected that option, the drink was nice and chilled.

I use to like coming here but since I saw flys hanging around food it puts me off just like another place down the road got flys they need to sort it out😳😳😳

As someone who works in the food service industry, the service at this restaurant is absolutely vile. The workers are rude even if you speak to them with kindness, they always get orders wrong and then say they can’t do anything when you request the order to be fixed. Clearly no one has any idea what’s going on and they don’t have any sort of professionalism.

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 Main City Center is extremely dirty. The chairs are torn, and the floor has not been mopped or cleaned. Not a good place to sit peacefully and eat

Good food, good value, but don't go for the atmosphere, not a pleasant place to sit

Was missing chips and meat in Kebab is cold and not a lot there

Usually the fish and chips is super fresh. Absolutely terrible today. Stale chips and soggy fish batter completely greasy. Disappointed!!!!!!

Bad customer service when we ask for sauce on the chips. The reply was NO u have to pay.... a bit of language skills would go a long way

this place has improved over the years

My food was late followed the delivery driver on the map and he delivered another order before mine food was stone cold contacted just eat for a refund and was refused the driver didn't understand English very good just eat as a company are not good

Food was very bad cold and unhygienic

Very bad experience. The delivery man couldn’t find the mail box in Birmingham!!! We spent over 1/2 an hour on the phone directing him. He left the delivery in a safe place and just eat refused to refund.,

I haven't received my order at all. I haven't been assigned any delivery partner also and I tried to contact restaurant no response from that side also.

Food was old and hard had to throw it away please do not risk it with this place.

Pizza was hot kabab was stone cold

Ordered a pizza slice and chips, the chips were fine, little crispy as usual, as expected, but the pizza slice had no toppings and was hard, it had clearly been sat there too long, and being a diabetic they wouldnt give me lite cola and had to settle for regular

I didn’t get my chips I payed for

Birmingham city centres worst fast food Absolutely awful stomach ache for all 3 of us! It's my own fault I could see it wasn't clean etc but the children was starving! Wasn't food value just all around a bad experience.

Los asientos absolutamente horribles ni siquiera se pueden usar. Las patatas fritas son sólidas como la roca y no tienen sabor. La salsa sabe a vinagre y era la friolera de 50 p por recipiente diminuto. Los inodoros son un desastre.

forgot to put drink inside bag

Wings and chips: Chips were just about warm and dry Chips were not fresh and definitely cooked over a hour ago They had black coloured chips Wings were just warm and standard Best part was the cola Very disappointing in the quality for a city centre branch, this standard shouldn’t be served anywhere Mr John if your reading this please fix up

I had SFC panini meal deal £5 can't fault the panini nicely done big piece chicken inside chips were okay a bit greasy for my liking eating area run down and messy only you find alot beggars outside and inside the places unfortunately for the customer whilst eating their food apart from that if you coming for the food cheap and cheerful price just for fast food it okay seating area some needs replacing by the way if you seat facing the window you got nice view of drug up people begging for their next fix boy miss old Birmingham city centre when we didn't have this problem welcome to second city class is gone to pan big time going back to food Big John fast food cheap and cheerful for the customers during a cost of living crisis and finally i can't fault the desi kid service me no issues there kid got manner for fast food places

ate there cant say about stuff but food was grizzzling

food was very nice no napkins, 2 portions of missing chips

"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 .

Food was cold and absolutely disgusting, went in the bin, delivery driver didn't even speak, never again.

Waiting for a small chicken mayo is about 20min even tho it is not busy. Disgusting toilet Dry chicken and chips Never used to be like this

Big Johns in city centre -- food was nice and staff polite and helpful. The place itself looks worn and tacky and why is there only one toilet for customers. These places need to spend on creating customers experience.

Don’t bother getting food here, they’ll get your order wrong every time. Ordered nuggets and chips, have come home to wings and chips. Ordered a pizza slice and chips and the pizza slice was missing in the box. Terrible customer service, clearly don’t know how to take orders correctly.

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.

Food was slow and then not available so had to re choose then came and not nice at all and they had no toilets available and advices to use a different food service place across the road

Really fast delivery in rainy conditions

Cheap, but disgusting food. Chips were tastless and looked so sad, chicken wings were horrible, the meat might have been expired for months. Probably the worst food I ever ate.

Been 2 days ago,with own my own eyes seen a small mice run across the kitchen,while i was giving my order to the till staff,completely shocked,didn’t bother telling they guy at the till because he will saying i lying this and that,avoid this big johns!!!

Can't follow the simplest instructions.

Absolutely disgusting masala fish which was slimey and covered in chilli to cover up the smell, complained to customer services who asked for the photo then didn't reply!!

delivery person was really nice. polite.

The strawberry milkshake was delicious (thick and creamy) and very good value for the size. It was a warm day so was perfect (dine in and takeaway)

We been to bigjohns we order panini but after one bite i findout bone inside panini which is disgusting

Absolutely disgusting! The plugs on the wall are hanging off, none of the seating is stable, the toilet is full of mould and they didn't have half the stuff we wanted in stock. I had to change my order twice and when they finally gave me my food, it was undercooked!

The places need upgrading seats are all ripped i dont know why and the food i ordered fish burger meal chips were ok but when I took bit of my fish burger it teasted so off I had to spit it out in napkin it just put me off and my sister bought chicken panini she decided her food as being salty and tasted old 😕 wasn't fresh 🤮☹️ I will never go there again sorry.

Ordered pizza.. tasteless . Will never recommend or come again

Food has gone down hill since I last dined here few years ago. And what shocked me the most was they knly allow fizzy drinks from the machine with the meals and not even a water.... how can you force someone to drink a fizzy sugar drink when they want water???? I wouldn't mind but it's not like it's volvic or evian, it was just the cheap water from Costco and they still said NO only fizzy drink..... shocking

Customer service poor, food cold, milkshake watery. People hassling us for money not once but twice whilst we were seated, which seems to be the thing in that part of the city. Will not visit again and would not recommend.

Fish was too oily other than that everything else was perfect.

Food really poor quality, cold chips on arrival, would never go back there again

I ordered mushy peas curry dsuctbbw sauce none of which came also I asked for chili mayo and there is only Loads of. Chilli on my meal it's almost impossible to eat

Service was good food was terrible and place rundown needs a good clean

The order wasn't hot. And the chips were hard and cold. Not happy

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.

Meal deals are nice so I went it. Chips are average. Chicken was average

Dry chips and tasteless chicken.l could smell the oil in the southern fried chicken as they call it. Avoid this shop at all costs.

Where's the salad on my food? Also no salt and vinegar on my chips... Stingy people.

Best top food and hot out fresh

Been waiting for my order and haven’t received nothing and it’s saying delivered

Ordered chicken from this place and got food poisoning and all that came with it. When this place first opened, it was very good; since then it has gone rapidly downhill in terms of quality, hygiene and customer service. If you value your health, avoid at all costs. The mere sight of the place is just grim!

I ordered at 12.30pm. Got it at 2.34. Absolute joke. Everything was ICE COLD. pls avoid

the order was let down by the delivery driver not the restaurant. the driver did not have capacity to carry the large order and cancelled on us meaning i had to go collect the order which was already over an hour late from initial delivery time. disappointing but the food was great

This place is a joke u went in with missus n kids ciz they wanted a pizza 🍕 there inly 2 amd 3 missis asked for the pizza slice and chips thats on display the guy then tell her sorry this isn't in the menu I said what a pizza isn't on the menu at the same time there cutting and making pizza lmao I told him no got get me the manager I want whats on the board if not the board to be taken down the manager wouldn't come out the guy came back after 1 min amd said yeah sure what do u want then took my order to me thats so lazy they don't want to make pizza for 2 slices im sure in Birmingham City centre they can sell the wrest then when my kids open them 5 mins later he had put the pizza in the bottom of the box and stuck the chips to them so my children didn't eat them discrecefull won't be going back here anytime soon

Visited here today and ordered 4nos. pieces of southern fried chicken. Definitely recommended. Also are halal.

this was the worst order from big John's ever.

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.

Service was very slow I waited 20mins for my dinner when I was told it be 5mins Food was nice abit spicy the chicken was but not to bad as still enjoy it I did Would I eat there again .....yes I would I paid £5 for 2 chicken and chips bloody brilliant

The pizzas are nice and I really like the cola brand they serve - better than Coca Cola!

Chicken tooo salty 🤮🥴🤮🤢🤢 took ages for the wrap my mum makes better chicken then them! Yuck 🤮 never again!

I love my spicy chicken... a Big John's fan

Burgers were burned and inedible. Tasted like very low quality meat. Ended up throwing them out. Not worth the money spent to have it delivered.

the time that it was ment to be delivered was 20:15 but the time keeps changing to 20:40

Filled a hole when very hungry.

Food taste like is been 2 days, fries was dry and old . Awful taste this time. Like is been ordered 2 weeks ago and came now. Very disappointed!

Hey there! I just wanted to share with you that I absolutely love the pizza at this place. It has such a great taste, and the best part is that it's very reasonably priced. Also, if you're into fried chicken, you should definitely give their southern fried chicken a try. It's also really good!

Brought chicken burger it had spicy 🔥 kick to it not buying that again

Worker was very rude! Mistakenly accused me of theft and after raising his voice he understood he was in the wrong and started to apologise then. Very rude and unprofessional.

hi ,sorry now when we start break time ,,and seen one full chicken peri peri is missing rest of order is ok . the quality is exceptional and taste grate

Ordered pizza slice and chips, asked for ketchup /mayonnaise and told its 50p each. Who the heck charges for sauce

This order has been the worst I have had. Its really disappointing

chicken so fresh and well cooked ! thank you!

It takes an hour for 1 meal.. the worst fast food ever..

Very very dirty... and expired food

Half an hour late & I got sworn at bu the delivery driver. I will never be ordering from Just Eat or Big John's again. Disgusting behavior!!

the food was delivered in two deliveries and the burgers were not wrapped properly

Good Just Eat Delivery Service. Delicious Big John's Food I Enjoyed. Thanks.

Chips are absolutely disgusting

Really craving battered mushrooms so went along on my lunch break, they didn’t have any! A week later decided I wanted battered mushrooms again, this time I went as though I was going to order online to check they had them. They weren’t showing as out of stock so I decided to venture down, did they have battered mushrooms? The answer was no! Very disappointed - I just really want battered mushrooms but I’m too scared to risk the disappointment again!

Chicken was a bit too 🧂, besides that food was good.

Food was cold it was like as if yesterday's food

So disgusting, the council need to visit this place. All the seats are ripped. Tables and floor dirty. No one could actually eat in. If they care this little it makes you worry about the food quality and preservation too.

Doesnt even deserve a rating, staff are really rude, very snappy and arogant, ordered a chicken bucket, chicking was either undercooked or overcooked and hard, chips were stale, tasted really bad. Wouldnt come here again.

Me Nom angri, food icky and Lebare bume runnie, neva again

Disgusting, definately went down hill since last visit, doesn't look much different on outside but inside it's horrible. The photos added by the buisness do not match the pictures I took today. Run down.

The food was too cold, unfortunately we didn't enjoy the food due to cold food delivery

Food was okay and very expensive normal burger meal is £9.00 and sauces are 50p each when they should offer you sauces like other places do..seats are all ripped and dirty..your in city centre your seats and table shoud be spot on not ripped and like there in the 40s..no toilets for customers to use..overall bad service and unhelpful staff

This is the worst experience ever in the history my life. I was on the toilet for a good hour. The chicken was drier than the sahara deserts. The chips had no flavour. The staff showed no enthusiasm. Overall I would not recommend this anyone.

Terrible Service and Rude Staff, clearly said I wanted a burger meal but nooo they give me a burger on its own and had to pay extra for the chips. Staff need to fix up after the guy gave me the chips with a rude attitude he's lucky I didn't throw the chips back at him 🙄😤

FOOD HASNT ARRIVED AND RESTAURANT NOT ANSWERING AT ALL
