Reviews Wimpy

Seen this lovely looking Wimpy whilst I was in the area and thought why not treat myself to a nice burger. I got a double cheese burger meal this was very tasty and cost me £8.15 I upgraded my drink to a banana milkshake for an extra 50p this was so delicious and was like a meal in itself so filling. I also got 8 onion rings for £2.10 these were nice but wasn't the best onion rings I've ever tasted. The restaurant was lovely and clean and the staff were very friendly I'd recommend calling in for the shakes I think If I was in the area again I would go for a chicken burger next time though.

Lovely staff, lovely food and great prices sum up this little establishment. I’d deffo advise trying the ‘whips’ of ice cream they do here - you get loads of ice cream for your money.

After a decision to hunt down one of the last surviving Wimpy outlets in the Midlands, we landed at 12:15 on Wednesday 18th October 2023. For me, I had known of the Wimpy Bar's existence for many years, since our parents took my sister and I as kids, to Milford Common on an occasional Sunday afternoon. However, we had never visited, and my last Wimpy Experience occurred at their Birmingham Corporation Street Branch in March 1982. On arrival, the popularity of the venue was undeniable: a steady queue of customers and a slight wait to gain access to one of four parking bays available. I couldn't recall the original arrangement but today's premises offers outside seating and a covered area adjacent to the main building - everything is now 'counters service' and 'Post-Covid' has retained security screens which arguably may have already been in place well beforehand. Staff are helpful and very personable: the lady serving me explained that this particular site celebrates its 60th Anniversary of operations in 2024 - and I can see why. The food was delicious and plentiful - no 'fries' with a meal, genuine chips with optional salt and vinegar sachets included - and a quick request for Ketchup glady granted. For an older operation, the food quality is streets ahead of comparable McDonalds offerings and although more expensive, passes with flying colours based upon the argument of 'what you pay is what you get.' It's gimmick-free too, so you can get on with enjoying your meal instead of being distracted by the latest banal offering pf 'Online Monopoly' or whatever other diversion exists to take your focus away from the crud you have just purchased from a lesser competitor. I've not mentioned Burger King until now: a large number of former 'Counter Service' Wimpy Bars passed to the same chain in the early 1990s and in hindsight, this too was a retrogressive move: despite BK generally being regarded as an improvement over 'Maccies', even their best doesn't emulate the 'Wimpy' of yesteryear. The next trip to a Wimpy Bar will be a mission - a trip to Shrewsbury to experience and capture the table service standard long since lost to high-speed catering's 'Factory Farming' methods

I've been visiting this wimpy for I think for nearly 60 years and decided to call in yesterday. Still as good as ever. Delicious freshly cooked. Far better than other burger chains.

Good food with vegan options 👌

Best mock chicken burger I've had! Bought a special sauce bottle too. Will try cheese next time.

Just as good if not better than I remember!! Friendly, fast and amazing food!! The Wandering Pirate

Don't normally do burger outlets, this was a pleasant surprise. Very hot and freshly cooked food.
