GBK is a burger chain in the UK. We stumbled upon a lot of them during our time there, but only…read moretried this one out. As the name implies, this is a burger joint! But you can also get some chicken products and fancy milkshakes. The insides seem to always be nicely decorated if you like modern style decor, which I do. They can accommodate large parties fairly easily. Personally, I remember my burger being kind of dry and not tasting super spectacular. That being said, I enjoyed their skinny fries and especially enjoyed the boozy milkshake I tried. They have a pretty large selection of beer and spirits, so if you're looking to have a drink with pals, this is a solid enough option.

My favorite is the Byron but i'm a classicist, you can go crazier on their other more exotic recipes. Each month of so they offer a different recipe, last time i went, it was an Italian one (which living in Italy, i tend to avoid in the UK). I also like the interior and general atmosphere, quite beautiful. Also the waiters are always super nice and efficient. The one thing i did not like at all: desserts. At least the brownie was no good at all. So enjoy these good, decent burgers, nice fries all over the UK with confidence, they will not disappoint you.

Review of McRib Experience (16th October)…read more I've been waiting for the McRib to return for a while, so I bought two. Right away, I noticed a nasty smell in my car, which I thought might just be odd. When I got home and opened the pack, the bun was completely soggy due to an excessive amount of sauce, and the smell was really off-putting. I thought, "It's the McRib, it'll be okay." However, after taking a bite, I realized something was very wrong. The taste was horrid; the best way I can describe it is like burnt sick on a soggy bun. It was utterly disgusting, and I couldn't finish it. I decided to take the McRibs back to the store. When I explained to the staff that the burgers were not right, the woman insisted they hadn't changed. But I could tell they have. The smell and taste were so poor that I had to return them. I got a refund and expressed my disappointment. This was a terrible burger experience, and the staff wasn't particularly helpful. The McRib definitely isn't the same as it used to be. If this is how it's going to be, they might as well scrap it altogether. The smell was unbearable. Rating: Very Poor

The McMuffins were tasty and hot and freshly made, the hash browns were cooked juuust right, and the lattes were creamy and delicious. So why the missing two stars? Because the staff were very loud. Really, really loud. As in, we were seated over the other side of the restaurant and I know what the people at the back of the kitchen are doing over the weekend. Also, the toilets were a state (picture supplied, although I didn't take my photographical skills further into the cubicles for it'd put you off your own breakfast), and the floor was minging in the restaurant, covered in bits of food, wrappers and receipts. There were none of those little paper pots for the barbeqizzle or tomato sauces, and to put the icing on the cake, when I asked for ketchup, the 'yoof' behind the counter called me 'madam'. Cheeky.

For a "Five Guys" it was just okay. But their burgers are not nearly as good as back in the…read moreStates. I just wanted a good burger and back home, Five Guys is always a good option. They were very nice when I ordered and the menu is the same as what I was used to. When I got to my room to eat, the burger looked exactly as I expected... until I began to look at it. The lettuce was just a single piece of sort of wilted iceberg lettuce. I'm not sure why they couldn't have included more and used fresher lettuce that was crispy and crunchy. I ordered my burger with jalapeno and I assumed since it was on the menu, they would put them on. I found one slice of jalapeno. And yet I had ordered it with no mushrooms and it was full of mushrooms. I realize mushrooms might be more common place over here, but I specifically asked for jalapenos. The beef also was a little less than desirable. I never thought there would be such a difference in beef, but it lacked the flavor I'm used to back in the states. And coming from Texas, the beef is fresh and certainly has a different taste to it. The burger was hot, fresh and looks amazing. But the taste was bland, the lettuce wilted and sparse and they seem to hold back on toppings (jalapeno). I also ordered fries which Five Guys is also very know for. They were cooked well, but taking ketchup was a bit of an ordeal. They have the traditional small paper cups for eating in. They also seem to have small plastic containers with lids but you have to ask for them and when you do, all I received was one and this was for a medium order of fries. I do not know whey they don't have them available to just use at will but if I have to ask, why not give me a few or even ask me how many I want? I was only able to get one slice of jalapeno and one plastic cup for ketchup. I'm not sure why this place is so restrictive. Back in the states, the burger would have been loaded with jalapenos and I would not have to ask for the plastic cups. If you are coming to Five Guys and you have never experienced it... I would just say this place is average and does not truly represent the type of meal or service you would receive at a Five Guys in the states. It was disappointing as I was really craving a bit of food from home and instead, received something less.

Having explained 4 times to the staff that we were going to have lunch there, but having walked for 15 min from the Natural History Museum to the store, saying to the till staff we were coming back and just running to the loo; the manger came over and blocked us from proceeding! He explained I had to buy something before the boys could use the toilet. I said things were desperate and we needed to go now. My 3 year old was sobbing saying he needed the toilet. The manger refused to allow that. So we left and ran next door to the Wimpey who were very happy to accommodate. Even with very low expectations of the fast food industry what kind of person does that! What kind of firm employs those people. So having had a family tradition of every school holiday going to the museums in Oxford and getting a burger before getting the bus back to Woodstock, I will never ever ever set foot in a Five Guys again. Black listed! Well done mr manager! Employee of the month! I implore everyone who reads this to avoid this store at all costs and show them children are at least as important as profits!

Never in my life did I think I would be giving a UK restaurant a five star review. Normally when I…read moretravel I am desperate to try new places and never visit the same restaurant twice. Perhaps its because the alternatives are drearily subpar or the fact that you can't ask for more than a good burger but I've now been to GBK twice in two days and am considering completing the hat trick tomorrow. The burger quality is very good and despite the burger not being large (by American standards) it comes on a nicely toasted bun with a load of toppings. The burger cannot be picked up and eaten without being cut. Now, a good burger alone would be tempting but the options are various and delicious. I had a Habanero burger on my first visit and the sauce had a very nice kick to it, unlike other places that weaken the burn this was full of it. My second visit saw the consumption of a Blue Cheese burger and while my aorta said no-no-no my stomach said yes-yes-yes. Highly recommend.

What I particularly enjoy about GBK is that they are happy to turn any burger vegetarian, meaning…read morethese guys have by far the biggest range for people like my partner and me. Furthermore, all their meat is ethically sourced (red tractor rather than soil association though), which means a vegetarian out of humane reasons can sink their teeth into a chicken burger here with minimal qualms. Their smoked chilli Mayo, green goddess sauce, bottomless ginger and lemongrass fizz and skinny friend add the delicious details to an already tasty meal. The restaurant itself is nice and clean with an intentional diner atmosphere. The service has always been excellent. Seating outside is pleasant and not too noisy with a lovely view of a water fountain. However usually that isn't quite enough to get five stars from me. Generally we'd be looking at enthusiastic four stars. But our last visit really added that final star of excellence in my mind: You see, I am currently training a service dog and part of what makes that particularly hard, is that it is almost impossible to find places that allow you to practice. The special scents and excitement of a burger place are hard to recreate at home. Restaurants will often allow you to sit outside, but if you are not rearing a winter hardy breed, that is unhelpful in winter. Thus, imagine my surprise and delight when I called ahead to Milton Keynes GBK and was informed that they kept a special table specifically for service dogs in training. It turned out to be right next to the door, making emergency dashes easier and keeping us out of the way of other patrons. The staff was exemplary and ever so kind. The cooks cooed, but refused to touch him as otherwise they would have to disinfect both themselves and the kitchen, which made me feel rather pleased about the strictness of their hygiene rules. All in all it was an amazing experience and we will definitely be back for some more practice (and delicious burgers). In my mind going that extra mile for their local disabled community most certainly makes them deserving of that fifth star!

When it gets to peak times I'd like to see them speed up, as a lot of us have to walk back to work. The manager, on the other hand I find to be rather ignorant. I've seen people queueing while the staff are busy and he's there ignoring us like we don't exist, twiddling his thumbs. They really need to fill their fries bags up. Plus, as with most fast food restaurants, most of the drinks cups are filled with ice that you have to ask for none, or you'll get very little drink in it. Also, there's one staff member that always seems to get my order wrong, so I usually have to speak to her in quite a patronising tone, as I'm not difficult to hear, she just doesn't seem to understand what a Large fries and regular diet coke is. It was hot last week, so I went to get a chocolate milkshake during my lunch break. I gave my order and the young bloke laughed and said we don't do chocolate. I hesitated and said Do you mean you don't sell it, or the machine is broken? He shrugged and said Haven't done it for about three months I gazed at the menu on the wall, which stated chocolate milkshakes. The premises is kept quite clean and apart from the odd fly buzzing around it's usually quite nice to sit in and eat. I will say though, the short blonde cleaning lady needs to learn english, as when I was queuing she was trying to get past the man that was before me in the queue, and she just looked at him before eventually pushing him with the bin bag. In England, we say Excuse me! Even in Germany they say Entschuldigung sie bitte! What I also find irritating about her is the way she storms in to clean a table when the families aren't even finished. While she cleans, she flicks the cloth around willy nilly so that it sends the bits of food and dirt flying to where other people are sitting eating!
