Slightly smaller portion would be better, patty was a bit dry and coleslaw a bit too chunky but it was generally pretty yummy, good choices, and nice selection of toppings. David was really friendly and gave us recommendations on burgers.

Ordered take away and asked for utensils for my husbands dirty tots, our order came with no utensils and no napkins. We are staying in a hotel so these items are crucial for our meals. My semi-chicken burger didn’t come with pickles and the chicken only covered half of the bun. I had half of a sandwich left over with no chicken to fill it. My husband buffalo chicken had no flavor, almost as if they forgot the buffalo. All around dissatisfied.

Decided to pop in this evening, having never been here for food before. My partner and I ordered a beef and chicken burger which was amazing. We loved the chips too. Big thanks to Rosie for serving us today. Great customer service. Would have given 5 stars 🌟 but there could of been a better selection of draught lagers.

Absolutely loved the meal here. Had Buffalo chicken wings and the semi-parmed life burger and they were FANTASTIC. Chicken was cooked to perfection, seriously good stuff. Also had the biscoff ice cream cookie dough pot which was brilliant too. Not only was the food fab but the service was probably some of the best I’ve ever experienced. Happy smiling faces, super friendly and really attentive. I accidentally knocked over my beer at one point and not only did they clean up the table really well but then just got me another beer free of charge - was so surprised and it was really lovely. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Visited Fat Hippo in Birmingham and really enjoyed the food, so brought my Dad here for a birthday lunch. I was so disappointed with the American burger, it was so bland and the beef patties tasted of nothing. We ate the tater tots and left the burgers. Although the staff tried to make up for it with a discount on the bill, it didn't take away from the fact my Dad didn't have an enjoyable birthday lunch.

Always a worry when a burger place has really bad burgers. Had the fat hippo, which is their signature burger, so is one they should really be knocking out the park. The meat was tasteless and bland. Was very like a wendys burger in the US but worse. Superfries we're really good though. A proper flavour sensation. They just need

The wings are tasteless and very very greasy. The chicken burger was very very greasy and tasteless. The batter has no flavour or seasoning. The onion ring were dripping in fat. The chips were nothing to write home about. The other 3 people in my company agreed. I would not go back.

Came here for hubby's birthday. The food choice was good, but not a big choice of desserts, though cookie dough was the theme. Hubby had The Fat Hippo burger, which looked amazing and was quite big, hubby said it was tasty, as were the fries. I had the plant based burger, The Notorious VFC, a bit of a let down, not as big and not big on flavour either. I had a watermelon margarita - lovely and hubby had the Perfect Storm, which was also lovely, along with a few other drinks. We did have to catch the servers' attention 2/3 times for drinks, desserts, and the bill. Not very attentive

Really nice food. Portion sizes are spot on. (I love the food in Buck's Bar but I hate the huge portions as I'm either wasting it or feeling too full) Burgers were great. Nice variety of choices including chicken and vegan. Hand cut chips with the Hippo sauce were really nice too. Staff were fantastic. Good banter, chat and service was really good too. Only negative would be if you're a bigger person the booths are a bit tight (I didn't personally have an issue) so maybe ask for a table in that case. It's not super cheap, but I think it's worth paying up for good food. I look forward to going back.

1st time coming into the fat hippo Must say came here for a chicken burger and was given an overall great meal . Had David suggest quite a few options to me with the menu . Quite alot to choose from From looking at the menu there was also a good selection of other burgers too for anyone that doesn't want chicken . Overall though hats of to David for the service and the suggestion of going for the waffle fries which was a great shout combined with the Hippo Sauce My only downside was I had to cut my time short as I had to rush off but again a quick carry out box and payment complete . Would have definitely stayed for a dessert . There's always next time Thanks again folks

My first hot meal as a 40 year old. What an intro into my 5th decade on this earth. Many a burger on many a land, and I enjoyed this one as much as the best of them. Pepsi rather than coke is also a win! 👍 No birthday balloons available though 😔 BBQ sauce would bring tears to your eyes. Beardy Dave, our server this afternoon brought a laugh and a smile on this rainy day. Full of knowledge on the menu to help narrow down my plentiful options. See you next time Dave 😊

I can't believe I am just finding out about Fat Hippo! Why this place isn't being screamed from the roof top is a mystery to me because seriously, Fat Hippo is amazing. Burgers were outstanding and the cheese balls.... well, just get them and trust me, you won't regret it. The only con is the price, a little pricey for a burger and chips but suppose it is in the middle of the city centre. Overall though, outstanding service and food. Will be back!

I've been here a few times now and have to say that this last time was really disappointing, Burgers were Dry, No care taken in presentation and la serious ack of toppings on the PB JJs we ordered , also much smaller than I remembered. The main problem I had was with the staff. After taking our order nobody seemed interested in making sure our table was seen too and serviced property, no condiments on the table and weren't offered any when food arrived.... Had to eventually go and ask for salt at the bar. ordered drinks and the bar person was not behind the bar at all and after a 10 minute wait had to ask for those too.......Staff seem Blase in this branch and something needs to change in both the kitchen and the front of house. Was a great place when it opened and burgers were amazing but I can't see myself going back and am worried other customers feel the same way. Please take these comments onboard. The person taking my payment all shouted out the amount of the meal to the whole table, I was taking the table out for dinner and this is not acceptable.

Misled by gmaps which turned this up on a search for vegan restaurants. Wish I could persuade their search that any place with only three fake-meat vegan items on the menu is NOT a vegan restaurant! The staff were lovely and the fake-meat burger was tolerable, but soooo not what I was hoping for.

Nice atmosphere, but food and service were shocking. Waited over 20 mins for 2 fried starters that should take less than 5 mins to prep, and then a further 25 for our mains to be delivered and dirty plates taken away. Mains were extremely underwhelming and overpriced, our beef burger was even undercooked and the dirty tater tots were smothered with far too much cheese. I'd rather have had a McDonald's mayo chicken than what I got from here! All for them to charge us 60 quid, for 2 starters, mains, and drinks. Avoid at all costs! Bread meats bread across the road will give you a much better experience and product for a similar or lower price.

Nice mouth watering selection on the menu. The food was delicious and we were served quickly. It's quite a funky place with an industrial vibe, the one and only complaint was the table is tiny and the seats were really uncomfy, but that's a design issue, don't let that distract you from the food. Staff were attentive and very friendly.

We arrived on Sunday afternoon after a fun day out in Glasgow, we been here before so it's not a new experience to visit Fat Hippo. Their cheese balls are very flavourful and wings are delicious, however the waiter did take a while to get our order, we were ready to ask for food but once we given him our drinks order he went away before we had chance to say we're also ready to order food. And took a while for him to come back to get our order, already by then we felt extremely hungry and anxious. The cheeseballs came quite quickly thankfully but took a while for burgers to come through. Overall it was decent, it was delicious and filling the food, however the waiter issue did confused us but we did had a good time in the end.

A bit of an underwhelming experience. Like a lot of people I follow the Fat Hippo on instagram. I love all the pictures of the food. I was so excited to come and try the food but we had a really mixed experience. I had the hot honey chicken burger, it was so bland has no taste at all. I couldn’t taste any hot honey or blue cheese. Luckily I had ordered some zinger mayo which gave it some flavour. The waffle fries were delicious. My husband had the born sloppy which was delicious but the burgers were over cooked but it was will tasty. The hand cut chips were awful they were like chips that had been cooked and left out (sweaty). I am not sure if I would rush back as there is so many really good burger places in Glasgow.

We recently visited Nando's on Waterloo Street, Glasgow, and overall, it was a great experience. One of the standout features was the prompt service when ordering via the app—quick and efficient, which made the dining process smooth and hassle-free. The food was delicious. The chicken wrap was perfectly seasoned, with just the right amount of spice, and the chicken butterfly was juicy and cooked to perfection. Among the sides, the broccoli and corn on the cob were flavorful and added a delightful freshness to the meal. However, the creamy mashed potato was a bit of a letdown—just ordinary and lacked the rich taste or smooth texture I was hoping for. The £40 bill for two felt fair for the quality and quantity of food we received. It’s definitely better value and taste compared to most burger chains. I’d be happy to return for another fast and tasty meal. Nando's continues to deliver where it matters most: flavourful food and efficient service.

Booked online for a Saturday night. Good job as it was very busy! Their food menu is varied so something for everyone. The portions are very big! The onion ring stack is nice but very greasy. The chicken burgers are lovely. They have a good drink selection. The cocktails are tasty. The member of staff who served us was very attentive and efficient, regularly asking if we needed more drinks so can’t fault the service at all. Really enjoyed our night out there.
