Normally have a good experience here but some guy I hadn't been served by before insisted that I had to take his changes to my order which made it objectively incorrect. Requested a regular smashy, wanted just the burger, but he wouldn't let me order it without making it a combo to "save money" despite telling him I no interest in the extra items. As I'd already received my beer, he essentially put me in a position where I had to accept his modifications against my will.
When the order was ready, it wasn't even the burger I ordered and he essentially threw it in front of me as if he'd done me a good deal.

If I were to nit pick, I would say I didn’t notice the music being played which means could be louder/better as I’m usually quite...
Read moreThe best burger I've ever had in my entire life!!! I ordered the September vegan special, with crispy smoked tofu, pickled cucumber, green sambal mayo, and Forty Thieves satay paste (but no smoked pineapple salsa), as a takeway. It was so yummy that – after I'd recovered from this transcendental experience – I almost rushed back to Burgernaut to order another one, but they were about to close. I still called the manager to beg them to keep it on the menu. That is how exceptional...
