Wimpy Basildon

Owner is very rude food disgusting feel sorry for staff the way they are treated by owner will never return

Me and becky visited Wimpy as were down in Basildon and I used to love a wimpy however it was disgusting and so so unorganised. We ended up walking out after seeing burgers heated up in a microwave. There was coffee bean residue on my saucer, we watched three staff members check the same takeaway bag, three tables were taken out and not one went to the correct table, our order was taken and then we were asked a further two times if we wanted to order and then was asked if everything was ok with our meal when we hadn’t even been fed. We bought our coffee and left and we will never return. No wonder there aren’t many Wimpys around anymore

While this Wimpy location may not be in the best area, the food and service are impeccable. The quality of the food is outstanding, the staff is lovely, the restaurant is very clean, and it offers good value for the money.

I visited this restaurant for a nostalgia trip and ordered an international grill. Unfortunately, the food was overcooked and the burger was dry and rubbery. The server even had to give me two eggs because he broke the first one. I couldn't eat the burger and had to leave it. The staff seemed unfriendly and when I mentioned the issue with the burger, the server was very rude. He offered me a free coffee, but I expressed that the problem was with the burger. In response, he rudely said he didn't want me to come back anyway. Overall, I was disappointed with the experience and won't be returning.

I visited here with my sister Wednesday as I have visited many times before and as usual the whole visit was great. The chef and waitress have been here for years and are nothing but lovely and know how to run a cafe. The food is always tasty and well presented, the environment always spotlessly clean. The atmosphere of the whole place is always pleasant . I have no idea about the comments made by others. They must have gone somewhere else because they bear NO resemblance to my repeated experiences or those of my friends who regularly visit. Real service at an affordable price with decent vegetarian options.
