ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW! This burger was out of this world! It was smashed with love! I went for the LIMITLESS One patty was more than enough. And I love it! I can’t wait to another one. Thank you to lady that served me today and made my experience even better. xx

The hot honey chicken burger & Mac and cheese bites were delicious! Me and my partner have been travelling and saw this place and had to try it out. Victoria was so kind and helped us with all out needs, she’s also the chef! 10/10 on everything! Definitely will be back!

We travelled an hour to Whitstable to try Please Sir! after we saw it on social media and was not disappointed! The food was 10/10, I had the limitless burger which was unreal! The customer service was as good as the food, we were served by Gary who was super friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble for him! Not your average burger place and can’t wait to go back!

Took my little brother to eat here after also reading great reviews. Amazing food probably best burger I've ever had! Manager was lovely and they even had an old school game machine in the corner which we played some Mortal Kombat whilst waiting! Definitely recommended and I'll, definitely be going back! The Whitstable one is smaller so only a few seats but have Broadstairs and Canterbury as well!

This review is long overdue. We were staying in Whitstable for my son's soccer training over the summer and ate here several times over two weeks. The food was consistently delicious. As a vegetarian, I really appreciated the tasty vegetarian options. The staff were always so friendly -especially Victoria, who surprised us with a special treat on our last day.

A truly great find thanks to the algorithm! We popped in for a late lunch, both choosing the double patty Limitless burger which were juicy and filled with great ingredients rather than too many, over-complicated extras. This is how burgers should be done! I also opted for a cheese skirt just to be a little bit extra but this truly isn't needed for the complete experience. The serving of fries was generous and the shakes were thick and delicious. We will be back and we will be telling everyone that will listen how great this place is. In the immortal words of Oliver, Please sir I want some more!

Looking at reviews we’d decided we wanted to try Please Sir! and we weren’t disappointed. The burgers were amazing and we had the smash burger and hot honey chicken. Both were so tasty! Topped off with mac and cheese and the cheese skirt added to the burger just took it to the next level. The staff were so friendly too. Would definitely recommend.
