I’m writing this review from yesterday, as I forgot, but the food was amazing, and even when this place was busy, I still got my food in under 10 minutes. Would defiantly recommend this place and will defiantly be coming back. More

There Burgers deserve a Michelin Star (of burgers). My boys and I love it, it's freshly made and fresh ingredients withyummy sauces.
Oh and did I mention the incredible "Biscoff Shake" - wow.
I don't understand why anyone would go to Maccas after eating Paddy's Smith's burgers.

Amazing experience at Patty Smiths! The food was unreal—especially the Golden Cheese burger and the boneless thighs, which were perfectly cooked and full of flavour. The staff were just as great: friendly, attentive, and made the whole visit feel welcoming. Can’t fault it, will definitely be back!

I enjoyed my food very much from this restaurant, I came here and was greeted by a young boy who was very polite and took my order for my family. He kept checking on us and made sure that we had everything that we need. The atmosphere of the store was very nice with these lights hanging directly over us. The food didnt take very long, only around 5-10 minutes but the quality of the food was exceptional and I will definitely be bringing back my family here. The noise level of the restaurant was good with only minor noise coming from the kitchen. I spent around 60$ at the store and bought my family all spicy stacks which were cooked to perfection, and the meat was so juicy, the server did inform us that all the beef patties here were A3 waygu. The quality of the ingredients felt fresh and I recommend that you come eat here.

Me and my best friend decided to try them out. The pics of the food looked great. Got it home and that was an other story! The 2 chicken burgers looked like that had been pulled out from the bottom of your school bag at the end of the day. There was meant to be mayo (special sauce mayo) on it..... well there was barely anything. We had to add more mayo and lettuce. But I do have to say that the chicken filet was really nice.

Ordered the OG burger, the beetroot was mainly what made me want to order it but after I took one bite it made me feel like every other burger I’ve had was shit compared to this. It was surprisingly fast which was was unexpected maybe around2-3 minutes. Some young bloke took my order and was nice and had decent sales skills asking me for any additions but I thought the store felt underwhelming so I got only the burger and left to my car. Recommend have the OG burger.
