Three Brothers

    SERVICE AND AMBIANCE: 7/10 TASTE: 8.9/10 VALUE: 8/10   SERVICE AND AMBIANCE: 7/10 My fifth and final review takes us to the much requested Three Brothers, just off of Woodlands Road. Now once again this review is a little different as is predominantly a takeaway shop and I was not able to eat in Three Brothers as the seating is extremely limited (3 or 4 stools at the window) so i do feel the need to keep that in mind when scoring the service and ambiance. The shop itself though is extremely clean, which really stood out to me as it is something that I really look out for. Of course this could be to do with the fact there are few eaters inside but from what I could see from the kitchen, the pattern continued through there. It also has to be said that the service was extremely good. The guy behind the counter was a good lad, very friendly and chatty and the staff there all seemed to be close which was great to see.   TASTE: 8.9/10 I ordered the ‘fam...

Bread Meats Bread

RATINGS SERVICE AND AMBIANCE: 9.5/10 TASTE: 9.6/10 VALUE:8.5/10 SERVICE AND AMBIANCE: 9.5/10 Bread Meats Bread stands out in a way which is much different from the previous burger restaurants I have reviewed. Located in the West End, they offer a more of an upmarket experience, promising delicious burgers in an almost fancy restaurant setting. I am often slightly put off by these trendy, pricy burger places as I often feel they try too hard, and are too hipster for my liking. I believe the term ‘Utter woke nonsense’ could be used when paying 20 pounds for an overcomplicated burger, just to be sat on  a backless stool, served by a guy with tattoos and a beard called ‘Xavier’.  Anyways back to the point, Bread Meats Bread luckily avoids this problem as service is attentive but not too over the top, I was seated very fast with menus on a comfy sofa seat by the window. With its casual décor and simple seating, the atmosphere is laid back and warm, making it great for an outi...

Rajas West End

  RATINGS SERVICE AND AMBIANCE: 4.6/10 TASTE: 7/10 VALUE: 8.5/10 SERVICE AND AMBIANCE: 4.6/10 (Clear Menu) Now, it is with a heavy heart that I have to give Raja’s such a poor score for service and ambiance, as it is my local burger place that has been a staple within my friendship group for many years. The service though, is nothing short of terrible. I recently went back after a long time to do this review and even phoned in advance with my order so that it would be snappy. The man of few words over the phone said that the food would be 15-20 minutes. Okay perfect, ill watch 20 minutes of YouTube then head down (I’m round the corner). Upon arriving, there was no one in front of me at the counter, only a few boys already sat with their food. The people working there pretty much completely ignored me as they were preparing the kitchen, except from one guy who I made awkward eye contact with about 4 times, still no communication. Eventually my presence was acknowledged and after a...

Chilos, West End

  RATINGS SERVICE AND AMBIENCE: 8.8 TASTE: 8.5/10 VALUE: 9.2/10 SERVICE AND AMBIANCE: 8.8/10 The restaurant more or less ticks all the boxes needed for a fast food restaurant. The interior is predominantly black and white with stylish, but simple, décor striking a balance between trendy and welcoming. When I went it was a around 9pm so there was lots of seats available and the service was immediate and very friendly. The woman behind the counter explained the ordering process and there was even a guide on the wall to make it even clearer. I can imagine at busier times the service wouldn’t be as good, as there is no self-service machines, which could result in increased wait times for customers, but my experience was very positive. TASTE: 8.5/10 After a thorough analysis of the menu I was drawn to the ‘Double Stack Burger’. It consisted of two beef patty’s, Chilos secret seasoning, Chilos sauce, melted cheddar cheese, mayo, red onions, gherkins and lettuce. As you can see, this ...

Popeyes Louisiana Chicken Sauchiehall Street

RATINGS SERVICE AND AMBIANCE: 6.7/10 TASTE: 7.5/10 VALUE: 9/10 Service and ambience (Popeyes, Sauchiehall Street) The restaurant has an energetic feel, stepping in you are immediately blinded by its excessive uses of luminous orange and bright baby blue. It's all very cliched 'American South', but it works. It's simple, in your face and extremely family- friendly. There are plenty seats, booths and regular tables but unfortunatley, due to the sheer amount of customers or lack of staff, they are often dirty, ridden with the reminants of the last eaters' breadcrumbs. The self- service is perfect however, allowing us customers to efficiently order our food, with very little wait time.  SERVICE AND AMBIANCE OVERALL: 6.7/10 Taste I ordered the 'Hot Honey Box Meal', a hand- breaded chicken breast in hot honey sauce, topped with smoked cheese and pickles on a brioche bun followed by two chicken tenders and a regular drink, priced all-together at £10.99. We will sol...
