Reviews of Buffalo Joe’s
A. S.I'm from London and have a friend who studies here, so obviously this review will be somewhat skewed by my local standards, but I hope it's a good review!
First off, the most important thing: the food. In a word, great. In a few, good value and pretty tasty given it's student food! On my most recent visit I had the Porky Blinders burger, a burger with toppings including pulled pork. This was tasty and filling, and for a full meal deal with chips and a canned drink I believe it cost me £6.50. This is tastier than a McDonald's big Mac meal, and that price is definitely justified.
One criticism based on a previous visit: the 'homemade' cheesecake. That was definitely manufactured, and I stopped eating after a couple of bites as the base was essentially just dust. If the recipe has changed since the start of the 2021-22 academic year the restaurant is welcome to say so, and maybe on my next visit I will give it another go.
All in all, a good experience and definitely the most filling thing on campus when the Canteen is closed. My go-to.
Z. K.Staff was very friendly. Chips were tasty.
Friend said [loaded fries with pulled pork] was his fav so will try next time.
J. F.Order terminal was mostly well designed and easy to use. Though wasn't clear how the meal deal worked. Food was generous in terms of portion size and was ok to slightly underwhelming. Would visit again, but probably not in a rush to do so.
Y. F.Never order buffalo wings, very salty, sour and disgusting. Totally a waste of money.
Other products are so far fine.
S. L.I like the digital ordering machines inside.
Also the food is up to expectations and the prices are fair.
Just wanted to note that it might be time for Joe's to upgrade its 50's diner decoration : it's starting to degrade. The tables are visibly dirty inside
A. B.A pale copy of what it used to be, battered wings show the biggest difference between now and the before covid buffalo Joe. The battered chicken wings used to be better than kfc's, not anymore. Feels bad to leave an average review but the drop in quality is noticeable. Still good but don't expect anything special from it.
Update as of December 2021:
The bettared wings did get better and it's cheap so nice !
J. K.The best place to eat on campus. Affordable and reasonable prices for very tasty food, cosy place to hang out with your friends anytime(as they're literally open 24 hours). Friendly staff, especially that one guy with the glasses, he should definitely get a raise. 💯
A. J.Helluva burger! Chicken katsu, was fantastic 😃 Messy though!❤️❤️
G. G.Lively atmosphere, it gets crowded easily around lunch or dinner. Prices are ok, same for service. But there can be quite a wait when busy, so be prepared to wait a little to get your food.
J. N.I love eating here! Alway good food and always excellent value for money.
G. M.Buffalo Joe's is located on the Essex University Campus Colchester.It's interior is styled on the American Diner of the 1950's which I really love.It serves juicy burgers and fries but there is a problem.The burger buns are toasted hard and are liable to break your teeth if you are not careful and the fries are often warm to getting on cold.The staff are hard working and friendly.
E. Z.Chicken burger quite good
H. W.Decent food and long opening hours. A good choice for on-campus catering.
C. w. S.Staff can be very rude food isn't cheap for what you get. The only thing that have only been any good are the wings
