Hit and miss. We dined twice in 24 hours whilst working the markets in bham because we were impressed with our experience last night, so opted for lunch today. We paid extra for dirty taters and dirty hand cuts, both were plain. I had the wild bill burger… it didn’t come with bacon or Cajun taters as described so it was just a spicy cheeseburger. My partner ordered the Swiss Tony and was also missing bacon. All we wanted was what we paid for. Spent nearly £100 in less than 24 hours. We had our lunch as takeaway because we had to get back to our market stall, we went back and explained our disappointment and the staff just said “oh yeah sorry”, didn’t even offer us a couple slices of bacon or a fiver back.Would I recommend? No I wouldn’t. I won’t be going back in a hurry as clearly this place isn’t consistent. 50:50 chance of disappointment and not receiving what you pay for.Photo of my burger, I bet the bacon and taters would have made this meal better (I only ordered it because my partner had bacon in his yesterday and it was delicious).Thanks for the disappointment, my stomach is sad.

For a burger restaurant in central Birmingham I would definitely recommend this place. All burgers include a side where you can have other options than just fries.The buttermilk fried chicken in the burgers is under seasoned but the portion sizes were decent. However, we went on a Saturday afternoon and it took over 45 minutes to received our food for a table of 5.

If you need a dirty burger alongside some dirty snacks, Fat Hippo is the place to be.It's not much to look at when you go in..... quite small and basic, but the food definitely made up for it!The fried pickles and tater tots were so moreish and my fried chicken burger was crispy, juicy and more than I could manage.

We were on Birmingham from London for a few days to visit the Christmas market and saw this restaurant so decided to try it……WOW how pleased are we to have booked a reservation as it was packed, the atmosphere was vibrant, luko and the team were run off there feet yet the service did not drop, so friendly and helpful and now the food, I genuinely cannot remember the last time I had a burger this good, the dirty chips were good and the crispy onion rings were delicious. Lots of locations around the UK and even while in the restaurant I was looking up where my local one in London was, there that good, but don’t take my word for how good the food it, look up your local restaurant is and get booked, you won’t be disappointed. All this food, 1 beer and a alcoholic milkshake for less then £50.

2nd visit: Managed to get our nom on! Had PB + JJ and Swiss Tony. They are quality burgers and can’t fault them. Really enjoyed the freshly made slaw. The dirty tater tots were just the right side of crispy and the perfect starter. The cheese tasted like liquid beef (not complaining as was tasty, it’s just the first time I’ve tasted cheese like this). The only thing was the beer we got came in room temperature. Not the end of the world - we left with full and happy tummies. Staff were friendly. Would 100% come back again, though hopefully there’ll be toilet paper in the toilet.***1st visit: Went on an evening as we had a hankering for a meaty burger. The service staff were fantastic - repeatedly asked if we had allergies. Whilst we don’t, it was nice that they’re so attentive.The reason for the low stars wasn’t because we hated it, it’s because we didn’t have any food in the end. When we were about to order, we’re told that we’d have to wait at least half an hour for our food if we ordered, which in my experience usually means 45mins+. Why? Because the kitchen had just received a batch of food orders. There was a big table of 10ish so I was trying to be understanding. If I wasn’t ravenous, we may have opted to stay and had a couple of beers but the hanger was real so we left for another place. We’re thankful to the lady, who proactively told us the situation.All in all, this place had a nice vibe. The service staff were great. The menu did look pretty immense so better luck next time.

Lovely host, took order promptly. Cheese balls were great and I was enjoying them at my own pace (single customer) and relishing the moment of being in cheese heaven when the waitress then brought over my main course (whilst still eating my starter) so the burger then had to sit there getting cold whilst I finished my starter and then let that digest. I then felt rushed and not relaxed.Once finishing my starter and then having a 5 minute break I tackled my burger. I ordered the Swiss Tony with a side of coleslaw. I thought that choosing your own side was a great idea. Although it was now luke warm the flavours were amazing.Was a great start to the experience but was then left to feel rushed and quiet annoyed with the whole process. The restaurant was busy but still had tables left so wasn’t sure why there was such a rush? Possible lack of communication from FOH staff to the chef? The chef just wanting to get it done and out the way?The food starter was delicious. The burger would have been too if it was served at the correct time and therefore temperature would have been bang on.Great portion size and value for money. Just a shame about the timings as when I did then want to eat my burger it was luke warm and the cheese had congealed, instead of oozing. I will definitely recommend and come back as the flavours were amazing. I hope next time my burger won’t have to sit there getting cold whilst I order more of those amazing cheese balls.

The food was really good and remained hot for a long time. The chicken was the proudly cooked and was very juicy. I ordered the ‘Great white Buffolo burger’ and it came with chips. This was £14.50. Tbe burger was huge and so tall..The chips was fluffy inside and crispy on the outside. Wouldn’t want anything more from a portion of chips. Had a table of 3 and the total was £53. My only complaint is the waiting time for the food and the waiters made us feel a bit abandoned because we were never updated on the waiting time for our food. Luckily I had other people with me to distract me. But overall a good experience with good food.

We went here for the first time yesterday. The place looks great and is really clean. The staff are attentive and the food is amazing. We tried the limited edition Re-Born Slippy burger and it was full of flavour and one of the nicest burgers we have had in the UK. Oh and make sure to upgrade your side to the dirty tater tots. Out of this world!

Yummy! Nicely cook burger! The chef definitely know how to cook it right just the way I like it. Medium rare done to perfection. Thick patty. Awesome onion rings too!

First visit, but it won't be my last. It was a spur of the moment visit as I was in Birmingham and decided to grab a bite to eat. Was warmly greeted and seated straight away. The menu is all very enticing, but I went for the white buffalo chicken sandwich, which was epic in its appearance and taste. Well done, everyone, and excellent service from all the waitress staff.
