I visited the restaurant today (12.8.25) and made payment at 7:20 pm. I was seated at Table 12, order number 106, and served by a tall South Asian woman, possibly of Indian origin. We ordered drinks, but due to an unexpected situation, we had to leave immediately and could not place any food orders. When I asked for the bill, she questioned whether we wanted any food. I said no, and then asked for the service charge to be removed. We paid separately, after which her attitude noticeably worsened. Instead of handing me the card reader, she abruptly dashed it onto the table, which was completely unnecessary and highly inappropriate. It is important for staff to understand that the service charge is optional, and sometimes situations arise where customers must leave unexpectedly. There is also nothing wrong with a customer ordering only drinks. When I requested the service charge to be removed, and to pay separately she responded with an attitude and a dismissive “what?” twice, despite clearly hearing me the first time. She needs to improve her customer service skills and treat all customers with respect. She was not wearing a name badge, but based on the details I have provided, I am confident you can identify her on CCTV and my receipt. Overall my experience would be rated a ZERO, I will not come back here again

Honest Burgers in Borough is, without a doubt, a masterclass in consistency and quality, securing a well-deserved 5 out of 5 stars. In a city saturated with burger options, this establishment stands apart by consistently delivering an exceptional experience that never fails to impress. The star of the show is, of course, the burger itself. The patty is always cooked to absolute perfection—juicy, flavourful, and boasting that fantastic charred exterior that every burger dreams of being. The quality of the beef is unmistakably high. It’s complemented by a soft, slightly sweet brioche bun that holds its own without falling apart, and the signature rosemary salted chips are nothing short of legendary. They are the gold standard against which all other fries should be measured. Beyond the impeccable food, the entire experience is polished and welcoming. The Borough location has a great, buzzy vibe that feels both energetic and comfortable. The service is consistently efficient and genuinely friendly, striking the perfect balance between being attentive and giving you space to enjoy your meal. They clearly have their system down to a science, from the kitchen to the front of house. For a reliably brilliant burger, incredible chips, and a hassle-free, satisfying meal every single time, Honest Burgers remains utterly unmatched. It is the definition of a solid favourite.

Standard burger restaurant experience. Food was good for the price. Just lacked anything to make it stand out and want you to go there again. Good if you're looking for a quick bite to eat. I just had the sides as a meal and food was good but nothing out of this world. Service was a little lacking in terms of checking food was ok.

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. The service was extremely poor – staff were inattentive, unprofessional, and seemed overwhelmed even though the place wasn’t full. The food was below average: bland, cold, and definitely not fresh. What made things worse was the pricing scam – the final bill included items we never ordered, and the prices were higher than what was listed on the menu. When we questioned it, the staff were rude and unhelpful. This place is clearly taking advantage of customers. I would not recommend it to anyone. Avoid at all costs.
