Used to love going to wimpy but this place has gone down hill. The place looks tired and worn out, the toilets were filthy, ice cold and hand dryer was not working. Food was greasy and not great value for money. Told there was an issue from head office meaning no ice cream. The staff were friendly but other than that I can't recommend this place anymore, such a shame.
Made my annual birthday trip to Wimpy in Chatham. Met by a lovely and friendly waitress, food was quick, nice, hot and the restaurant was nice and clean. All in all it was lovely. I was going to knock a star off for atmosphere but in all honestly it's a Wimpy, classic British burger place. Takes me back to my childhood and this was a shining example of the franchise.
Slow service Sunday at 2pm ish they were already cleaning everything down to close up by the looks of it . Ordered kids meal for my daughter and was told they didn't have ice cream was told it would be the pancakes (suspect they had already turned off the machine ) as when it came time for pancakes they couldn't find any and magically the ice cream was back on the menu but took ages as waiting for the machine to come back up to temp to make it
Food was undercooked chips and very cold MILK IN MILKSHAKE WAS OFF Been going wimpy for years and always brilliant food but Chatham one is not even suitable for consumption. Tried Contacting for an explanation with no one to answer the phone. Not sure how anyone can let a milkshake out the door with it immediately smelling as soon as we undone the wrapper from delivery
It's either excellent or poor service in here. Sometimes the staff are very friendly and the food comes quickly. On my last visit I was served the wrong burger - asked for a Hot and Spicy Beef Burger and was given a BBQ Chicken Burger - quite a difference. Then had to show on the menu what I had ordered, almost as if they didn't believe the Hot and Spicy Beef Burger existed. When the Hot and Spicy Beef Burger eventually came out, it was not hot (in the spicy sense) at all. No apology at all from the lady who seemed in charge, although the waitress was pleasant apologetic. They have also stopped 'meal deals' (i.e. add chips and drink for £5 or so) except on Wednesday. Will use Chefs Delight 2 a few doors along in the future.
Really pleasantly surprised. Just wanted a quick inexpensive lunch while out shopping. The youngsters running this are super. Customer-focussed, cheerful and enthusiastic. Food was great for the price and they do great coffee! Will definitely not walk past again :)
Very nice and clean friendly staff great service,But front door bracken needs a new door closer!! As staff and existing customers Don't close the door !! Very cold on windy day ??
Went there on Saturday me, wife and our 2 children. For years we have found wimpy a delight. However on this occasion things changed. Firstly I will say the staff were very friendly and pleasant, no complaints there. So the food. Alarm bells should of rang when it took only 4 minutes from ordering to receiving the food. Fish finger burger tasteless apart from a fatty taste and watery texture. Burgers just looked wrong, sloppy and not a good taste. Almost like they had been microwaved. Milkshakes, wow wee sugar hit. They did taste of a thick sugar mix. So yeah unfortunately a bad experience with the food and one which has put us off going again.
Clean,tidy and lovely staff. Food as good as ever. Not overpriced.
Very small, friendly place to eat. Only my first time here if you have a pram with a small baby in it, not an easy place to get into but not a bad place to eat otherwise Kid-friendliness: Nice selection for children Wheelchair accessibility: Definitely not wheelchair accessible
Good
Overpriced to be honest, especially for the food you receive but the milkshakes are banging!! Parking: Parking is in the main high street car parks bit of a walk from wimpy itself
Food usual good standard but the menu has been greatly reduced. Probably a sign of the times.
Everything was great, just a bit overpriced.
Not bad, not my usual cup of tea but kids and wife enjoyed it! Clean and done up since i was last in a wimpy
Ordered a hot and spicy burger, they didnt tell me they were out of sauce, just gave me burger and said nothing. When questioned they said theyd run out, so had a plain burger and was still charged full price of hot and spicy. Terrible service
Brings back childhood memories coming into a Wimpy. And it does not dissapoint. The staff are really friendly and helpful and the food is really tasty. Just as i remember. The price has increased but still well worth iy.
It was ok as expected
Food is good :)
Not to busy, quarter pounder and chips and a Pepsi. Cant go wrong. Best burgers by far. Great staff and friendly atmosphere
Madness 40 for a meal Its wimpy
Food portions are smaller than ever when theres no ice cream you have to discount meal price or go buy some food was hot and served perfectly
Shame ,used be great,food standard,not best, changed menu, not near good used to be...
Great food n service n if you want to adjust whats in your meal theyll allow it, bang on
Good old wimpy been around for years do enjoy when Im in the area nice food and lovely waitress
This place isn t how used to be since the staff have changed. Lady Got our order wrong and I really felt forced to take it, obviously I didn t but I had to tell the lady no numerous times! It made us all feel uncomfortable.
I didnt get what I ordeted, the time of delivery was extending on a continuum, I ve waited more then 1h to recive the order, when I call them to ask about my products they pretended I am not on their list... after they invented a story of why I didnt get my order right, the food arrived ultra cold, never going to order from them. it was a first and last experience. better order anywhere not here.. lol
I havent been to chatham for a long time because of this lockdown but I love the vegi burger and chips here and its a good restaurant, I have been here several times with family members before.
Worst experience from a delivery service ever. Got the order wrong, we rang up, they said they would send a replacement order, but they didnt, they closed their restaurant for the night.dont give these people your business
We were the only customers in the wimpy, waited 40 minutes for the food when it finally arrived the chips were hard and over cooked they were preparing food for delivery which appeared to be more important than us waiting. We used to go there a lot it wasnt the same staff this time.we wont be going back anymore
Fed up with this place, every time i try to order with you, you have no drivers, why waste my time accepting the order if you arent going to send it, ridiculous, could of ordered from somewhere else in that time
Great customer service very rare to find a wimpy that is still open
Lovely Place.Lady Who Served Us Was Attentive And V Friendly. Disabled Access Available And Toilets Too. Its Nice To See Wimpy Still Going .
Nice stuff but needs a up front manger had table for 5 but food come at all different times .

Great service and nice food.
Ordered from Wimpy in Chatham... Turned up an hour late. When we tried to call several times and they wouldnt answer. When the food eventually did turn up the driver just dumped it on the floor and was walking away before we even opened the door. The food was lukewarm and not nice at all. The kids cheese toastie meal was just mildly warmed bread stuffed with artificial cheese; not toasted at all. Possibly one of the worst services and most disappointing meals Ive ever experienced.
Very nice
Good food and service
Food is OK, price is appropriate, but nothing special about it honestly.
Was wxelent foid and service
Friendly staff and lovely meals :-)
Not happy that the table just got wiped with a cloth,no sanitizer spray used on the table,especially with what is going on. To only give 2 vinegars when theres 4 at the table.
Staff are miserable

Ive loved the food in Wimpy since I was a teenager and so does my family. The waitresses today were so friendly and kind, they made us want to go back and visit again, and food makes us want to stay, especially their milkshakes! Definitely a place Id visit again.
Friend place
Not like Wimpy used to be. Nice, but very expensive.
Gross
The women in the wimpy in Chatham make my nan so happy every time we visit! She absolutely loves wimpy and they make her laugh and listen to her. I can t tell you how many laughs we have when we go in store and she always wants to go back! And the food is lovely too! :)
Brilliant better than KFC McDonalds burger king
Sat for a jacket potato with my sister as wanted a healthier option and the meal was lovely. The thing that tops it off though were the two staff members that were in. They were both so friendly polite and accomadating.

Great staff and good food.
Best milkshakes
Food is nice, but had long waiting time and it felt all a little rushed. Preferred it, when it first opened up
Absolutely brilliant food and service
The staff were exceptional, absolutely lovely genuine people
I wouldnt even rate it 1 star the food was so bad. My burger was disgusting my partners chicken burger was dripping with grease the service was appalling. Overall worst place I have ever eaten. When I told them I wasnt happy I was basically laughed at and told not to be stupid. My advice to anybody wanting to go here spend your money at burger king next door
Quick food, good, no excellent service, value for money, spotlessly clean and a seat. I cant fault this place, quiet or busy, this place is brilliant.
Modern version of the classic burger bar. Has all the features youd expect for a Wimpy. Does great breakfasts too.
