Can you give no stars?

Burger king in Reading is a sad excuse for a fast food outlet.

It took about 10 minutes for a burger to arrive then they managed to cock up the order by giving me small fries and a coke, not the diet version.

Staff seem to be young students trying to earn a buck - I don't blame them but they do need more staff and an increased focus on customer service

The worst service I've ever had 23rd January 2008

I’ve had my fill of terrible service in the past, from rude French waiters to restaurant owners who are grossly offended that you don’t tip their sweaty lecherous nephew, but rarely have I ever seen service as wretched as in this Burger King. Yes, it’s a fast food place, but still.

I popped in to grab a burger after a one day at work before heading to the hotel across the road. When I came in there was nobody behind the counter which is odd. I waited about, and eventually a lad appeared from chatting to the two blokes in the back and asked me… “Yeah – what?”

Whilst my whopper meal, with diet coke was being prepared by the two individuals behind the scenes, a lady came in in and asked if they did anything made of fish. “Yes, Ocean” came the reply from the cretin. “yes what is that?” she asked, because frankly Ocean is not a description. “Fish” came the reply before the imbecile then turned around and walked off. She left, I don’t blame them.

The burger, when it arrived, was limp, tepid, almost cooked and assembled by a blind man with no hands. All of the content was outside of the bread with the exception of the mayonnaise. I fully expect to get food poisoning, and if I don’t I’ll be manning a protest outside Burger King tomorrow to warn the world of the lackadaisical idiocy inside.

I’d have given this place no stars, if it was possible.
