The portions are huge:) order responsibly. Everything is delicious but why would anybody want their pickles coated and fried ? We tried many things, everything was delicious but we couldn't end not even a single portion. Order half of what you plan to eat. You'll still have plenty.

We travelled all the way from Leeds to try Poor Boys food after seeing them on social media. We arrived around 4pm on the Saturday. There was a queue already formed but a waitress seated us immediately as we were happy to sit outside. There were great patio heater in the garden so felt lovely and warm. Our drinks order was taken immediately and our food was brought out swiftly. The staff were so incredibly friendly, kind and thoughtful. The food was gorgeous. We ordered a variety of oysters, burnt ends, po boys sandwich’s, mac n cheese, onion rings, chilli poppers. Every single dish was on point. Stunning presentation, huge portions and it all tasted lush. All in all we had a fantastic time. I thoroughly recommend a visit to Poor Boys. Delicious food and wonderful staff. Thank you.

100% 10/10! Went here with my hubby for a date night and absolutely loved every bit! The vibe, staff and atmosphere was awesome! And the food is gorgeous! The 20 min queue was worth it! Definitely recommend the seafood platter and cocktails! Portions were fantastic, reasonably priced, not stingy and expensive, unlike some seafood places, and even had so many leftovers for a takeout to munch on the next day! I will defo be coming back again! :)

It used to be so good but not very happy with my recent visit to this restaurant last week, we will normally go as family to have the meat and sea food shared box and we were able to swap an ingredient from the plate for another ingredient of the same plate, it is very disappointed to know that you are not allowed to modify anything at all which is a shame as it was my favourite plate and we used to go there every 2 weeks because we love it but not able to modify that now it’s disappointed, especially as not all of us like crabs but love the rest of sea food. I don’t think I will return to this place.

We Had a nice meal, loads of fried items, tasty food. Had beef doughnuts, surf&turf sharer and oysters … big portions. The doughnuts wasn’t like i was expecting,the restaurant itself is quite small tables are close together its quite cramped specially if you order a few dishes it doesn’t fit in a table for two people, they also have outdoor seating as well.

Didn’t enjoy the food although I was really excited about it- ordered the soft shell crab and grilled shrimp with fries and Mac and cheese plus calamari and chicken crispy bits - only thing I liked was shrimp and Mac - seems like the place had a heavy reliance on powder seasonings to carry the flavour plus the crab was vile… and I would also not recommend those chicken things- don’t think I could eat there again- waiter was nice though - felt bad after

The brisket had very little seasoning and burnt ends not to our taste, prawns ok, but nothing special. Overpriced in reality of what you are served.

Poor Boys Southern Soul in the Heart of Kingston Tucked away just off the riverside in Kingston, Poor Boys is the kind of place that knows exactly what it is and absolutely nails it. From the moment you walk in, there’s a laid-back, Louisiana-style swagger to the place exposed brick, neon signs, bluesy tunes humming in the background. But it’s the food that does all the real talking. Let’s get straight to it: the burnt ends are nothing short of phenomenal. Rich, smoky, and glazed to sticky perfection, these little hunks of slow-cooked heaven are the crown jewel of the menu. Each bite is the perfect balance of crisp caramelised bark and juicy, melt-in-your-mouth beef. They’re indulgent, bold, and deeply satisfying exactly what burnt ends should be. You’ll find yourself scraping every last trace of sauce from the tray, wondering how soon is too soon to order more. Then there’s the fried chicken and it’s everything you want it to be. Crispy, golden coating that delivers a proper crunch, wrapped around succulent, perfectly seasoned meat that stays juicy to the last bite. There’s a confidence to it: no gimmicks, no overcomplicated marinades just really well-executed chicken that tastes like it came straight out of a New Orleans backstreet kitchen. Add their hot honey drizzle or house gravy on the side and it’s game over. Sides are no afterthought, either. The mac and cheese is rich and gooey, the cornbread is sweet and satisfying, and the fries are seasoned just enough to keep your fingers going back for more. Everything on the menu feels generous, soulful, and packed with flavour. What makes Poor Boys stand out isn’t just the food it’s the vibe. The staff are upbeat and welcoming, there’s a buzz to the place without it ever feeling chaotic, and the atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between casual comfort and cool night out. If you’re in Kingston and craving something hearty, smoky, and downright delicious, Poor Boys is the spot. Come hungry, leave happy and definitely don’t skip the burnt ends.

Poor Boys in Kingston is an absolute gem for lovers of Southern comfort food with a twist. The build your own poot boy concept is brilliant. You choose your base, topping, and sauce, which means there’s something for everyone. I went for the Mac and Cheese base with Buttermilk Chicken and Philly Cheese sauce, and honestly, it was a 10/10 experience. Rich, indulgent, and full of flavour! The portion sizes are huge, and everything is served in takeaway containers, so when you inevitably can’t finish it, they provide a lid so you can take it home. Mine was just as good as a lunch the next day! The shake lacked a bit of flavour, but it still paired nicely with the meal and didn’t take away from the overall experience. Service was excellent, with a friendly and helpful waiter who made great recommendations. The restaurant itself is clearly in high demand, even when we went at 9pm on a Thursday there was a queue to get in. Since they don’t take bookings, expect a 5–10 minute wait, but it’s well worth the wait!

My partner and I had a long brunch for Mother’s Day and was served by amazing Arla she was so kind and made us laugh she, We had our 12week old daughter with us and got seated at the back of the garden, within minutes Arla was at the table serving us making us laugh and helping us figure out what goodies we wanted to consume. We ordered a total of 8dishes and they was absolutely Devine we had plenty to bring home for sure. I consumed 2 cocktails and my other half had a few beers. I think our favourite bites was definitely the burn ends beef, the brisket doughnuts and those extremely cheesy mac&cheese balls. That pina colada was perfect if I do say so myself!! Arla thank you so much for your time and making us laugh throughout are meal we appreciated it more than you could ever know. Your service was absolutely phenomenal and your kindness will take you far!!

We got the surf and turf share platter - it really is a generous sharing designed for 4 people. Would be great if they created a smaller version as we chose this to get a feel of all the different meats (and we managed about a quarter of the platter!) Unfortunately most of this platter is deep fried, so there was no coconut shrimp or grilled shrimp. It's a good option if there is a big group. We definitely will be back as it was tasty and we're keen to try the sandwiches teamed with sides and different sauces. Highly recommended the mac and cheese ball and the chips and gravy if you like cheesy, sauce topped chips! Queues long, be prepared to wait but overall the service was good, friendly staff who keep you topped up with water throughout your meal.

Unplanned visit, Wednesday lunchtime, busy, must be doing something right. Ordered wings and skin on fries with Reaper and Mayo. Excellent service, very helpful. Food turns up, more than enough for two. Did struggle to get through the wings, crispy batter, always the flavour of "flour" comes through. Fries we're good, also very good sized portion. Reaper sauce, ok, spicy but not much else. The Mayo was not to my liking. If u like fried chicken, then this outlet offers very good value. Toilet facilities are limited to two washrooms located on the first floor accessed via a spiral staircase.

The servers were really nice, on a Sunday at 3pm there was still a line. The food wasn’t to my taste personally just because of the very thick coating on the chicken and the excessive use of powdered seasonings. The house sauce however were delicious especially the hot sauce and bbq sauce. Ordered the big meat sharing platter and it was huge for 3 of us. They kindly packaged it up to take away our leftovers

Food maybe slightly over rated. Meat was abit dry and the donuts and twinkies very oily. Its more of a novelty but I don't regret my order.

It’s so good you have to wait for it (literally) Only thing I genuinely would complain about is the wait, luckily I was a solo eater so was seated quickly but after ordering still took like 35/40mins for food on a Sunday afternoon. But the food is excellent. Been twice and ordered the seafood platter which I regretted tbf. However the chicken mac and cheese bowl for like £14 was 10/10 it was genuinely unreal.

Food portions are huge, so it’s good value for money. Tasty, but be clear what you’re getting in for - food is deep fried, too salty, too sweet, borderline sickening. Poor ventilation, very stuffy and rather foul and off putting smell inside. If you like fast food and are very hungry you may enjoy it. If you want to feel refreshed, I suggest find somewhere else.

Food is great, for me the ribs and brisket in particular. May seem pricey but portions are good. Eat in would be the best way to enjoy the food but there is always a long wait, hence dropped 2 stars. I suggest the owners to benchmark online queuing tools so the people would walk around and shop instead of waiting in the cold/rain. An example would be Flat Iron’s.

Looks great on TikTok if you try the entire menu. We had brisket po boy beef dry. Looked oven baked rather than smoked. Kids enjoyed the pop corn chicken. Proper flavour. Wife had chicken and Mac. The Mac was massive and technically not Mac as they use twisty pasta, there was also a lot of pasta and wet Mac sauce. Tasted good first 4 mouthfuls. If I were to go again I’d prob try some of the gimmicky bits. £100 for 4 one course and 4 drinks 😂

Made a trip to poor boys after seeing the food on their tictok channel.... Didn't disappoint. Bikers.... so "parked very close", not sure how easy it would be by car.... Little wait to get seated, quick service, good food, lovely staff. Sat outside loads of little flies and pigeons, so see why people waited for the inside tables. Dread to think of what it's like in the summer. The timed halogen/ir heaters over tables a great touch made the whole experience more enjoyable. Loved it, I know above i've mentioned some things may seem negative. But common sense says you're gonna get flies and pigeons around food outside...

Was excited to come here as a recommendation and with a friend that had been here before, I think we just caught a bad day. Never complain and don’t usually write reviews but wanted to mention some points I thought would help others. I ordered the ‘ice cream float’ for the price I expected more than a plastic disposable coffee cup and the ice cream was all mixed into the drink - that’s not what an ice cream float is and it was tiny, I was actually embarrassed receiving it as thought it was a joke. Doesn’t come in the cups advertised and no ice cream on top or someone just couldn’t be bothered that day. Also the shrimp po boy was so soggy it was a mess and had to use a knife and fork. Service was very average, seems a chore to ask for anything. We would like to go back and order something different and hope it was a one off that day

Poor boys have cracked the formula of southern food with high turn over of guests. Everything is served in containers you could take away, and there is enough menu overlap that you are not waiting too long for food. This is great if you over order and want to take your food home, and must save on washing up! We were seated upstairs, which is not as buzzing as the downstairs part of the restaurant. Tables pretty sticky. Frozen cocktails good and stay seriously cold. Enjoyed the shrimp po boy and brisket dirty boy. Husband demolished the fried pickles! Picking different sauces for your food is always fun. I'm sure we will be back at some point.

Poor Boys Restaurant definitely lives up to the hype when it comes to food. The portions were incredibly generous, and the dishes were bursting with lovely, complex flavours. It's clear the chefs put a lot of care into their food, and I was thoroughly impressed with the quality. The staff were also very friendly and welcoming, which added to the overall positive atmosphere. However, there's one significant factor that unfortunately dampened the experience: the wait. We had to queue outside for a full 90 minutes in the cold, which was a real test of endurance. While the food was ultimately worth it, that long of a wait, especially in unpleasant weather, is a major deterrent. If Poor Boys could find a way to manage their queues more efficiently, it would significantly improve the dining experience. As it stands, be prepared to brave the elements if you're planning a visit, especially during peak hours.

An Unforgettable Feast – 10/10! Went to Poor Boys with my partner on Saturday the 1st, and wow—this place exceeded all our expectations! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was buzzing, the service was top-tier, and the food… absolutely next level. We both ordered the beef brisket, which was melt-in-your-mouth tender and packed with rich, smoky flavor. My partner had the mac and cheese, and I went with the chips—both were an easy 10/10. The southern slaw? Another flawless 10/10. And then came the brisket doughnuts—hot, tasty, and simply mind-blowing! The onion rings were golden, crispy perfection. A special shoutout to RENZ, who was not only an amazing server but just an all-around great guy. His energy and hospitality made the experience even better. Poor Boys, you amazed us! If you haven’t been here yet, don’t wait—this place is incredible! Highly, highly recommend. 10/10!

Location: beautiful spot near the water, though a cute alleyway, you can also sit outside where they have heating system Venue: it’s a small place however it gives cosy vibes Service: we had to call someone at first but then as soon as we got served it was good service Food: we had the surf and turn platter and honestly we couldn’t believe our eyes there was so much fooooooood. And the foood was super tasty. It is a mix of fry ups and salad at the bottom with pickles very nice. My all time fav is the corn ribs 😍😍 Drinks : they don’t have hot drinks, milkshakes were nice personally I didn’t like the vanilla it tasted just like mix. But strawberry and Oreo was good and not too sweet Overall we had the best time here with good food and you can take away the food

Had seen this on social media and been wanting to go for ages. The food in the photos looks amazing so I was really looking forward to it. Once we got the food it was all heavily battered (more the you would see in a fish and chip shop). All the food tasted the same and was very bland. The only taste was overly used herbs. I was also really unhappy with the lack of sauce in the buns. In the photos they make it look like the food has lots of sauce but it was all dry and I couldn’t even taste the hot sauce on my chicken and it had little mayo. Also ordered the fried pickles which tasted nothing like pickles just bland batter. Considering the amount of people outside I really thought it would be good. We also had to get our own cutlery and our drinks were served in plastic cups and no plates for food.Taking into account the high prices it’s not worth it at all. Better off going to KFC.

Brilliant food, great experience! We were served by Charlie who has outstanding customer service skills. He was very welcoming and pleasant to talk to. Please stop by if you’re in the area, solid 10/10 experience. You won’t regret it!

Last year, I had the pleasure of visiting New Orleans and trying a Po'boy sandwich at a restaurant called Mother's. It was the most delicious sandwich I've ever had. Therefore, I anticipated a similar experience when I visited a restaurant called Poor Boys in Kingston, UK. Unfortunately, I was quite disappointed. I believe the restaurant's name is misleading, as the food did not reflect authentic New Orleans cuisine. The bread, meat, and overall flavors were not comparable to what I experienced in New Orleans. This is an honest review from someone familiar with genuine New Orleans food.

Service with a smile and serenity are amongst the great qualities of a meal at Poor Boys!! it was a joy to nip in to the restaurant for a quick lunch while passing through, and be greeted and immediately seated by Milly, who was able to accommodate my needs for a non descript seating area in the vibrant restaurant for me to get on with my work and phone call with a friend. Charlie was especially cheerful and informative on the various menu options and the suitability of my choices for future visits, as well as the quick service from both the kitchen and Sergio's swift and precise service at the bar. Loved it before this visit and will absolutely be returning!

Food was incredible, atmosphere was amazing but the staff and especially Renz was incredible. What an asset to Poor boys he is. We were a large table celebrating a birthday yet, Renz was super friendly, organised our orders perfectly and clearly knew every item on the menu which was great for us 1st timers!. Massive thank you from us, and we will definitely be back. Thank you again Renz.

Callum served us at Miller and Carter, WorcesterPark. He was amazing, made us feel welcome, relaxed was a lovely young man. Food was excellent and Callum even arranged for a surprise slice of brownie, raspberries and profiterole, with a candle, for my wife whose birthday it was. The Manager was welcoming as well. Well done M&C we had a lovely lunchtime experience

This was a great family meal. The service was exceptional and the food definitely didn't disappoint. The smashed burgers were amazing and I highly recommend along with the milk shakes with were a must buy. The service was particularly good despite a small complication it was dealt with exceptionally as I got offered a free beer (didn't accept though because I was driving) if you're looking for a family meal in Kingston this is my No1 burger restaurant. I also had a chat to the owner and he said they were going to add a texan barbecue theme to the restaurant, can't wait!

We’ve had this meal before but on this occasion what we received … completely opposite to what is advertised… an average sized carton of meat compared to full sized aluminium container full of meat! A very bad con job. Short on every level! Avoid!
