Tuve su burrito de pollo y no me impresionó demasiado. La comida está bien y los precios están bien, pero nada especial. No creo que vuelva

Die Burritos waren immer lecker, aber aufhalten möchte man sich dann doch lieber woanders. Der Laden ist nicht besonders gemütlich und lieblos gestaltet und auch das Personal ist nicht besonders freundlich, aber um schnell einen Burrito zu essen, ist dies eine gute Adresse.

gezellig tentje met fantastisch mexicaans eten. Heerlijke burrito's en ze blijven de ingrediënten maar opstapelen voor een schappelijke prijs. Heerlijk als lunch of snel diner. Gezellige sfeer met leuke mexicaanse muziek en een paar zitplaatsen.

A mi hijo le encantan los burritos, así que pensé que no podríamos equivocarnos aquí. Me dieron un Groupon ya que las críticas se veían bien. La experiencia estuvo muy lejos de ser agradable. El personal de servicio era amable aunque un poco distante. La comida no se veía apetitosa y era extremadamente degustación promedio. La nevera de bebidas estaba vacía con solo unas cuantas bebidas de precio premium en las que tuvimos que pagar extra a pesar de que no había nada más que ofrecer excepto el agua del grifo. El café en sí se sentía desalmado y poco acogedor y no podía esperar a irme. Por lo que ofrece es bastante caro. Este lugar lo dejará sin burritos, así que evite a toda costa.

I use to come to London for work and everytime I come, I make an stop to this amazing burritos shops. The staff are really confident and they make the experience better. This time my waitres was two girls: one French and another spanish one. They were simple amazing. Last time there were the Spanish Supervisor who made an excellent customer service. About burritos: Chicken burritos are the best. Go for Large for £1 more. Definitely, I will come back with my friends.

Had been in a couple bars before hand came out at 12am absolutely starving and I decided to go for a Burrito. The staff were extremely friendly and I wasn’t sure what to order so asked the manager to just feed me ! I left it down to him and I was absolutely delighted with the Burrito it was without doubt the best I’ve had, I devoured it ... it was delicious. I will need to find a excuse to go to kings cross again so I can have another. Highly recommend .. I will be back for more 😋

This place is a fave among folks in our office. The burritos are very tasty and we used to stop by at least once a week for our burrito fix. However, the owners have put the prices up and it now costs £10.45 for a large burrito with guacamole. I mention the guacamole because it used to be £1 extra - it's now £1.50, which to me is getting pretty greedy. There are many nice restaurants in the area where £10.45 will buy you a full dine-in meal so we've decided to park our burrito cravings for now, which is a shame, as they are indeed yummy.

A large burrito is only £1 more I think and you get so much more and so definitely I would recommend this Altho to be fair, even a smaller 1 will fill you up! And so if you get a large, you will get better value... but probably leave half until the morning

The smell was what made me visit this place.

Don't be fooled by the smell its definitely not worth it £6.00.

I've visited this eatery possibly 2/3 times and I must say every time I visit I am never disappointed. They offer a very speedy lunch service which is great as I only get an hour break and the portion sizes are ideal especially what you are paying for! I feel that you get your money's worth if you go for a 12" burrito as it's bigger and only £1 more. The first time I visited I had the 12" burrito with chicken, white rice, refried beans, salsa and cheese. The mistake I made was forgetting to chose a sauce as I felt the refined beans were a little overpowering (but my fault entirely), however, the chicken was beautifully cooked and tasted extremely juicy and tender! The second time I visited I opted for the 12" quesadilla. At first I thought it was not going to fill me up but to my surprise the quesadilla it did as it also came with some tortilla chips. In the quesadilla I got chicken (again beautifully cooked), black beans, rice, cheese and mild sauce. In essence I feel the black beans tasted better than the refried beans as it has a little more flavour. Due to the fact that the tortilla is toasted, it gives it a nice crunch but still retains the softness of the fresh tortilla. Having ordered the mild sauce it gives the quesadilla a fresh herby taste which goes great with the rice, beans and chicken. The tortilla chips were nice and went well with the quesadilla and the amount of chips they gave was more than I expected!As for the decor it is unique and vibrant leaving a relaxed atmosphere. Overall considering the pricing, quantity of food and service I will have to give this cafe/restaurant a 8/10. Brilliant speedy service and great tasting food for a reasonably price! Anyone passing through King's Cross should definitely visit if they are in need of a quick bite to eat!

One word: bland. Mainly because they don't actually balance the portioning of ingredients that make up the burrito. A few slices of peppers there and the odd courgette there... poorly seasoned chicken. Really un-exciting food. Which is a shame because Mexican is all about bold flavour, no?Positives: everything was fresh and you know you had a quality product. But they need to sack the chef and get some creativity in there. Won't come back for more... such a shame.Chilango is my favourite. There's one opposite Angel station. They won best Mexican two/three years in a row for a reason. Their burritos are £6.30, packed full of flavour and better range of ingredients to choose from. Go there!

First review on TripAdvisor for me but I have to - this place is one of London's hidden gems for me. Found randomly as it is open till late near King's Cross station, it's small but great - friendly staff, great atmosphere and most of all THE FOOD! My favorite is the Pork Quesadilla, which is hands down the best I've ever had - and trust me, I lived in LA and tried all kinds of Mexican food. If you have a chance make sure you swing by the place and get one! ;)

Burrito was not as hot as I would have liked. Went with a 20% off voucher, and there were WiFi problems, but they eventually still honoured it. Either wrap was too thin or too much liquid from sauce so burrito did not stay intact very well. Taste was OK, refillable soft drink with meal deal, but that costs £9.50, which is probably In line with other similar places.

This place used to be fantastic and I was a regular. Amongst the best 'fast food' burritos I've had in London and often, while passing through Kings Cross on the tube, I couldn't resist hopping off and popping in just to grab one. The service was always excellent too with an array of complimentary corn chips & salsas varying from mild to a scorching habanero one to nibble while waiting to be served it was a cut above most of it's competitors. I can only surmise it has very recently had a management take-over as the prices seem to have gone up (slightly) and there are some decidedly inauthentic, non-Mexican fillings now on offer (perhaps to cover all bases with the large back-packer hostel trade in the area?) at the evident expense of the traditional ones. Not sure if they are simply trying to expand their range since so many other burrito cafes are popping up but this does not work and I sincerely hope they will re-appraise the wisdom of these changes and return to what they did fantastically before, namely serving delicious and well priced burritos. NB: 'poor rating' based on most recent visit; previously I would have given the King's Cross Burrito Café a resounding VG.

Had burritos from cafe style/fast food Mexican places in the States but never in London, only restaurants, (not all of them good), but these quick and authentic versions were satisfyingly delicious. Got a takeaway for myself, my wife, and 10 year old daughter. I had the veggie option with the hottest salsa and it was really good, with a well proportioned combo of fresh ingredients and satisfyingly spicy. My daughter LOVED hers and it was big enough for her to save half for tomorrow's lunch!! My wife had the beef which she said was really excellent. She loves Mexican food and is usually quite critical, especially if the meat is under par, and the gacamole/refried beans etc not flavoursome, but she gave this a thumbs up on all fronts!! Staff were polite and efficient, and the whole process was quick and easy, as somewhere like Subway should be (but rarely is). Will be going back when we're in the area again!!

To be fair, I've had worse burritos at festivals, but never in an actual shop. I'm vegan and can't speak for the meat, but my burrito was almost entirely rice- despite me saying i was vegan i was given two slices of pepper, when i asked for more i got a third slice. The burrito was flavourless and pretty cold. Tables were also sticky and grubby. Avoid!

I am so upset that one of my favourite take-out places has gone so downhill.I used to live around the corner and my boyfriend and i would visit regularly. The staff were always friendly and helpful and most importantly, good at making our food! Portions were always a good size and we were happy to buy extras.We moved out of the area, so don't visit as often now, but still occasionally, and we have noticed the difference over the last 6 months especially.First there was a re-brand, where the old logo and signage, which was quite modern and fresh, has changed to a more traditional look - fair enough, i personally preferred the old look, it was different to your stereotypical mexican take-out, but never mind.Secondly, old staff have moved on (or maybe i've just visited on days where i don't recognise anyone) and they now seem to be a lot more impatient and rude.My experience tonight it a culmination of this.My boyfriend and I walked in to be greeted by a guy behind the counter, who was serving two other guys. He quickly told us he would be with us in a minute, not a problem we said.Another guy quickly ran out from the back to serve us. He took my boyfriends order, a chicken burrito and very quickly took him through all the ingredient options, so quick that he nearly added things he didn't want. He wrapped it rather haphazardly, but we didn't think anything of it, it was never going to be Michelin star standard presentation.I then ordered my pork quesadilla. I asked for some grilled peppers and was given 2 slices. I asked for some more and got approx. 3 extra. I then asked for some guacamole and was told no, it makes the quesadilla too wet to cut. I explained it had never been an issue for the last 2 years and i was happy to pay extra as usual. I was given half a spoonful and before i could ask for anything else to be added, he started wrapping it up - obviously he just wanted to get rid of us by this point. Not sure why, there was only one man behind us in the queue and he was being served by the other guy.My quesadilla was only put on the hot plate for about a minute, which would probably explain why he finds it hard to cut them when he's in such a rush and doesn't actually cook them properly!I was given the other half a spoonful of guacamole in the box with my, what turned out to be, stale, chewy nacho chips.I'm so upset, this really used to be such a great place (i have the loyalty card and everything!), but i made a point of saying as i was paying, we will not be returning.

I went here because I got a Groupon deal but it's definitely not worth full price and I wouldn't go again. The meat and toppings lacked flavour and the pulled pork was too wet so the burrito ended up being very drippy. It's not a nice venue either. There is an Honest Burgers nearby if you want a better place to go in Kings Cross, or if you want a decent burrito try Chilango instead (the Angel one is the best).

Very disappointed with my pulled-pork burrito. It was well packed but mostly with rather tasteless rice. I wasn't alone in my group who suspected the pulled-pork was actually tuna as it was insipid and did not have a "meat' flavour at all. Several of us thought we would give Burrito Cafe another go after a less that impressive first visit about a year ago. Unfortunately we have concluded that we will not be using it again as we felt ripped off.

Great food! Very fresh and tasty. The store was very clean and the staff were friendly and attentive. The servings were pretty generous too! Great value for money i think. Would eat there again for sure.

Unlike a lot of other burrito restaurants, Burrito Cafe throws out any food left over at the end of the day and starts again fresh, every day. Considering this, the value for money is fantastic, and I now walk the extra 5 minutes to eat there regularly! 2 big thumbs way up for Burrito Cafe, check it out today and be satisfied!

Went here for lunch the other day. Super quick service, and tasty food. Good selection of burrito fillings, and generous servings, I could barely finish my burrito it was so filling! My friend is a very fussy eater, and staff were more than happy to answer all her questions on the different options. Staff were friendly and efficient, and great value for money!

wow, I will never againPrices are averagefood below averagestaff - nice people but cluelessthis is not mexican but "english-mexican" bland tastes that appear to sit all day in the hot counter.i took a bite and another and looked at the burrito and decided to leave it on my plastic plate, i glanced over and saw not 1 but 2 mice running behind the service counter while staff unknowingly prepared burritos.quite a unique dining experience, and not a good oneI would not recommend, I sense a lack of passion or even a hint that anyone cares about the place. the venue looks nice and is a bit deceiving, i asked the staff if the guacamole was made fresh or if it was from a jar and they literally replied its mixed with a bag of "pulp" and some fresh avocados. interesting

Yo ya habia ido en un par de ocasiones anteriores. Los burritos son abundantes y bastante sabrosos, pero algo caros en mi opinión si se le ponen los extras, Esta vez compramos un un coupon unos amigos y desayunamos un burrito breakfast, que en realidad es mas parecido a un English Breakfast enrollado que a un burrito. Pero se le puede poner chorizo y el resultado merece la pena. El sitio aunque pequeño es acogedor y el servicio muy agradable. En esta ocasión había una chica húngara que si su jefe lee esto bien haría en darle un aumento de sueldo. En resumen, se merece una oportunidad.

Me and my friend went to this cafe this evening, i must say that the overall experience was very average, staff seemed inexperienced as they mixed upour burrito ingredients and in the end we both had to eat the toppings that we didnt want. Place doesnt have toilets for paying customers however by the way itlooked there is a toilet for staff to use. There are tables inside if you want to eat in, i would say that if you are in a hurry and need a quick bite you can try this place however do not expect much from it!

I'll keep it brief. The staff were very nice indeed - however:1. If you are going to serve the public food and drinks, you should provide basics like toilets. There are no toilets. Clearly the staff use a toilet, they just don't allow the paying customers to use the toilet. What would they do if an elderly person ate there and needed the loo? 2. It is not real Mexican food, they use Turkish durum wraps, not Mexican corn tortillas. Great salsa is easy to make. Tomato, red onion, olive oil, salt, pepper, lime juice, chilli, coriander. Theirs was fairly poor.3. For some incomprehensible reason, the burritos are bland, especially the vegetables - my g/f had a veggie burrito and it was watery and flavourless. 4. The music is like Mexican MTV-pop, Why not just play some real Mexican music?5. The decor is reminiscent of the video for 'Let's Go Outside' by George Michael.When people eat at foreign food joints, they want good food and a cultural experience. This fails on both levels.

The only reason that we visited the Burrito Café was because we had a Groupon voucher that we decided to use before catching a train from Kings Cross station.The idea of making your own Burrito was great but it didn't really work for this place given that the selection of ingredients was very limited.The Burrito itself was of a reasonable standard both in size and quality of taste but if we had to have paid for the meal we probably would have been a bit more disappointed.The best bit of the experience was trying a Mexican beer called Sol which I had never had before which was very nice.

visited on a very hot day, inside was extremely hot. the soft drinks machine was broken and the cans weren't cold either. inside looked like a redesigned toilet which did not help the eating experience

Right, all the ingredients LOOK good as they pile them onto your wrap, but why is the end-result so tasteless? There is an awesome burrito place on Charing Cross Road (Chiquito? Chipolito?) - now THAT'S a good burrito at the same price as this one.

Since arriving in London a week ago I have been coming back here every day (and once, twice in a day!) Amazing service with a smile, I had never had a burrito before but the manager (I think called Nathan) explained that the staff would take me through the process and recommended what to have. It was out standing! Best takeaway food I have had in a long time. The chicken was so tasty and flavoursome, There are 3 options Chicken Beef and Pork. all are excellent. The salsa's beautifully accompanying the ingredients (I went for hot, which is hot but still lots of flavour, not just burn your mouth hot -thay have tasters for you to sample the hotness of the salsas). The Decor is simple but clean. They do some great beers which is great with a spicy burrito. The one downside is that they don't deliver! They do stay open until 4am as I found out to my delight after a night out! Also I found there Nachos to be nothing special, but the Burritos are awesome. well done Burrito Cafe!

As soon as I get off the train at Kings Cross I have to head here. I only visit 2-3 times a year and every time the food is the same quality and tastes amazing!

Reminded me why I usually look up restaurants before trying them out. Went here with 2 friends, cocktail jug during happy hour basically had zero alcohol in it (yes even at the bottom). Food was ok at best but certainly not worth the price. £25 for a sad looking sirloin steak isn't a good deal. The staff were fine although the pushy waiter at the end with his QR code to give a good review was a bit awkward. I'm not one to cause a big fuss about a bad restaurant experience unless the food was inedible which it wasn't. It's just not a place I'd recommend, especially on this high street where there's 100 better options

Delicious food, highly recommend the baja mushroom and chicken tacos. Good vegetarian options, and although there aren't vegan options on the menu the staff helped adjust the dishes
