Go Burrito? More like No Burrito.
My friend and I are tourists visiting Lancaster from France. For our last night in town we wanted something nice but quick to take home as it was below freezing outside. That’s when we found Go Burrito on google maps, with a generous 4 and a half star review.
As we walked in, we were passively disturbed by the food on the counter not looking fresh at all, as if it were made long before being served and was just sitting there getting stale for hours, maybe even days.
Due to the miraculously high ratings, and the fact that it was getting late and very cold, we decided to go against our will and ordered our food.
The process of ordering the burrito was illogical, and confusing due to the amount of random condiment varieties scattered around, and the fact that they don’t have ketchup for the chips, instead you have to choose a burrito sauce for it.
In addition, we didn’t even have the choice of eating inside the restaurant, as when we asked the employee for a reason, he just responded with “the upstairs is a mess at the moment.”
Let’s just say that the wrap tasted exactly how it looked, stale and not fresh whatsoever. The meat was very salty and some grains of rice were as hard as a rock. Chips didn’t look fresh either, and neither did the sauce. My friend’s chips were as hard as ice.
I can not fathom why this place has such high ratings, my only guess is that it went downhill recently.
To be avoided, unless it massively turns around. I will...
Read moreI have no idea how Go Burrito ended up catering for festival crew, but if you’re thinking of hiring them for any event that requires feeding actual working humans—think again.
At Beat-Herder Festival, the crew was given one meal a day that was consistently either undercooked, burnt, or just plain tasteless. Portions were insultingly small—nowhere near enough to support the kind of physically demanding work the crew is doing every day. If you're running on your feet for 10+ hours, a scoop of dry rice and bland beans doesn't cut it.
It felt like whoever was cooking either didn’t care or didn’t have the basic skills to be preparing food at all. If you don't know how to cook nourishing, edible meals, you shouldn't be feeding crews who are keeping the whole festival operational.
A warm meal is the bare minimum. What Go Burrito served was not just disappointing—it actively dragged down morale and performance. It's exhausting work, and being given barely edible scraps as "fuel" is both disrespectful and demoralising.
Avoid them if you want your team to stay energised, healthy, and able to...
Read moreI used to love Go Burrito. It was all freshly cooked and value for money. However, in the past year I feel like standards have slipped and what you essentially pay a lot of money for is a wrap filled with rice as the other fillings are non- existent. The chips are not the same as they used to be - they're now cold, hard and tasteless.
Today I bought a vegan wrap with roasted veg and there was very little left in the tray. I asked if there was anymore and was told I would have to wait for 10 minutes. I then agreed to take what was left which wasn't much. The assistant only gave me a few scraps of the cold hard veg and I had to ask for more. It was insulting, paying that much for what essentially amounted to rice, beans and a few hard onions. The chips didn't fare much better.
I won't be coming back to Go Burrito as I have wasted enough money in the past year for sub-standard food. there are much better places I can...
