Food was absolutely disgusting. My chips were stone cold and my friends cheesy chips looked and tasted like rubber. Don't recommend. It's been over 20yrs since I've been to a wimpy now I know why.

Considering how expensive it is the food was worse than McDonald’s for 3-4 times the price.

the courier was outside then drove off, sat down the road from the restaurant for 20 mins and said his clutch went when it eventually turned up the 'thick' milkshakes were like water, chips were cold and buns were soggy, not appetising one bit went straight in the bin. rather concerned as this was a £50 order

First time for many years really looked forward to it but we were extremely disappointed, the service was brilliant but unfortunately the food was very very poor the burgers are definitely not the same as they were thick, chunky and to me and my wife tasted awful, and were very sloppy in texture,to the point of almost under cooked. For the price we paid I would expect better food, we have had better from a mobile burger van. definitely won't go to Wimpy in clacton again .

Have used this wimpy since I was a kid. 9 times out of 10 the staff are excellent. Also it’s nice to have table service unlike similar eateries! wimpy is more old school and that’s why I use them… more welcoming, good quality food and you don’t have to use your fingers to eat your food 😊👍 Only one knock … the front door glass and handle are the first things you see when you arrive and generally they look pretty grim… a bit of kitchen roll and some window cleaner several times a day would make a big difference but this is only my opinion

On my visits to Clacton I have always had food at this Wimpey. The service is excellent and I am happy with the food. However, it does concern me why there are so many small flies around. On every visit over the last couple of years I have always noticed these flies which does put me off eating there. I did put it down to the time of year especially when it is warmer weather. However, my last visit was in October and there was just as many flies around. This problem needs to be addressed.

The drink was half empty and flat, the bag was soaked through where the drink had spilled. The food is stone cold. Was left on my door step, no delivery driver to be seen. Assuming that’s because they knew the drink was dripping everywhere through the bag. I’m not very happy at all with the whole order :(

Came here around 11:15 on Monday 11th September. Worst Wimpy we’ve ever been in many aspects. Those to highlight were the young staff members arguing between each other openly in front of customers, next to no service as it took what felt like an eternity for someone to ask us if we’d like to order something. Food took forever and was not fresh or merely presentable when it was served to us. We also witnessed someone returning their entire order and demand a refund as they’d had enough. Wish I’d done the same. Safe to say will not be returning anytime soon.

The food was amazing, the milkshake was the best milkshake we have ever tried. The food was freshly cooked and presented well. The first member of staff was rude and ignored us, but a lovely young girl came and served us and was very friendly and helpful. I did see the same girl cleaning every table someone had eaten at. The toilets were the only let down of this restaurant, no soap, tap just kept spinning around and only a drop of water came out. The hand drier only went on for 2 seconds and off again. The toilet floor was very dirty . The restaurant needs some money spent on it, as it has tape over the cracks on the floor to hold it down. But we went in for good food and fond memories and that is exactly what we got.

My chicken burger was fine, fries were a bit dry. Chocolate shake was tasty. The waitress was cheery and polite.. Not sure what the idea is with the decor since my last visit it seems to have taken a more dour tone, it's a bit dark at the rear of the seating area and one thinks a lighter decorative scheme would help the interior.

Revisiting Wimpy after years, I was pleasantly reminded of the delightful food and impeccable service that made it a favorite in my childhood. The nostalgia hit me as I walked through the door, but what followed surpassed all expectations. The friendly staff greeted me with warmth, making me feel truly welcome. The food was nothing short of amazing, with flavors that brought back fond memories. If you're seeking a trip down memory lane and a culinary experience that won't disappoint, a visit to Wimpy is an absolute must.

Although a 20 minute walk this is my local. It's worth the walk. A nice atmosphere and location. Food is served during the day. A garden to sit in during the summer. With football on the screen makes a perfect location. Entertainment is provided at certain times.
