    Food is good and service is friendly. The Sit down is only open from 7h15 to 17h30.

    NOT A PET FRIENDLY STOP. Beyond ridiculous that you have an outside area in the shade but won't allow a family with a dog on the leash to sit and dine there. Your floor and counter staff are incredibly rude and uncaring. Instead of just meeting us in the middle, allowing us to sit in the blazing sun and eat breakfast off of plates with proper cutlery we have to eat BREAKFAST from takeaway containers. I'm clearly not in the Western Cape with good, kind and friendly service anymore. Honestly deplorable. Get a shaded pet friendly area

    I was served by Vuyelwa Busakwe who was very professional, kind, down to earth, sweet and forever smiling. My customer experience with her was out of this world. We need people like her.

    if i could give half star rating i would...my family and i went on a trip from gauteng to eastern cape and when we got to bloem we ordered and waited for an hour just for food!! the service is so slow, the waiters don't care about you when you ask them about your order, our milkshakes sat there for over 45 minutes and when then when they gave it to us it was so watery and when we returned them the waiter rudely said "i called your number multiple times and you didn't respond" but she didn't call our number because we stood there the whole time and waited. She made new milkshakes but they were still watery!🙄BLOEMFONTEIN WIMPY STAFF DO BETTER!! show more respect for your customers.

  • 1/5 PEPE P. 1 year ago on Google
    The waiter and the manager were very rude. Not even greeting us.we set down and asked her to give us a chance to decide on our meals. She never returned. 20mins later we decided to stand up and leave. We travel to east london regularly and i have seen a huge trend of bad service at this wimpy. Today im certain i will never return.

    Stop here from gauteng, wait over an hour for our food, when we finaly got our food it was ice cold. I ate the double up beakfast the wors was baked so hard you couldnt cut it with the knive provided, my husband chips was so cold, he told the waiter she did nothing, this wimpy will never see me again.

    Amelia’s service was great. Very pleasant and welcoming. Will definitely recommend Wimpy Blockhouse North to friends and other travelers. Thank you Amelia - it’s hard to find service like yours in our country today👍🏼

  • 1/5 Dini N. 2 months ago on Google New
    I left a review on the 23/24 of December (link: Check out this review of Wimpy on Google Maps https://goo.gl/maps/4jThuoigJopdAgQi8) about the bad service. I received a response, much to my delight, asking for my details on a web form. I filled in the form with thr necessary details and am, to this day, STILL waiting for the call. Absolutely disappointing that not even a commitment for a call can be honoured.

  • 5/5 Galaletsang H. 4 months ago on Google
    The service was awesome. Amelia was just helpful to an extent of assisting us on using the FNB wimpy vouchers. We ended up paying with card because there was a network problem however we are not complaining at all.

  • 5/5 Ané P. 4 months ago on Google
    Very nice experience, perfect for cold mornings when you just need some warm coffee for the day! I also want to give some appreciation to my waiter Catherine who gave me amazing service here at Preller Walk😁Definitely recommend!!!

    KARABO was attending to me in a wag that i had never been attended to before. His character and attitude isnof a desirable standard and would appreciate to be attended to bv him when dining in at this restaurant. Keep up the good work in excellent customer service.

  • 5/5 Sipho M. 3 months ago on Google New
    Karabo and Sara were friendly and always checked on me. A wonderful experience I had here. The waiter full of energy and smile.

  • 5/5 Mpho D. 1 year ago on Google
    Vuyelwa, was awesome... I had just attended family funeral and was very emotional but she made me feel so calm. Thank you babe, keep the service

  • 1/5 Andrew S. 2 years ago on Google
    Pathetic service. Slow, yet there should be an urgency to get people back on the road. Managers have no direction or urgency, no wonder the staff are just as bad. Then to add, raw food is served. Wimpy should really be ashamed of the service and quality at this establishment. Assistant managers response to our. Concern nis "but we are busy". That is a privilege for any restaurant. REALLY POOR!

  • 1/5 Ann-Mari B. 2 years ago on Google
    What an absolute displeasure shopping at your Wimpy van outside. I had to put in my order 4 times, due to the person taking my order not understanding an order of ' Big cheese with chips and one classic cheese burger'. I waited more than an hour. In this hour I observed your 'cook' working without gloves, he went outside opened the bin 2 times and returned back to making the burgers without washing his hands. He preceded to touch his nose, whiping his nose, licking his fingers all whilst continuing to work on the burgers without gloves. Disgusting

  • 1/5 Alan E. 2 years ago on Google
    Terrible service, got the feeling that the staff think there doing you a favour for even letting you in the door. Waited 30 minutes for one wimpy burger. Eventually asked for a refund and left. The manageress offered no apologies , explanation or excuses before turning her back and walking away. There was only one order in front of mine when it was placed, however the staff were in such disarray they were giving the wrong orders to patrons and not making others . I counted at least 4 other patrons leave without their orders and some return with the incorrect or incomplete orders.

  • 4/5 Jashwin M. 2 years ago on Google
    Good service from our waiter Edward, although he did mess up the order by giving us an extra plate of chips, which we didn't mind. Otherwise the toasted cheese sandwich was good and so was the hot chocolate.

  • 5/5 Juan Du Plooy (. 1 year ago on Google
    Always friendly staff and always my go to place for a quick delicious meal. Food is amazing to. Wimpy is such a well-known franchise and has really upped its game.

  • 1/5 Henry D. 2 years ago on Google
    Ate there yesterday morning. Food was oily. Wife and kids had cheese giller breakfast. We got home around 13h30 in kempton and they started vomiting and complaining of stomach cramps. Wimpy replied on my comment and asked to leave my contact information. I did that and today I received an SMS stating the matter has been resolved. Wimpy Customer Care Case CAS-2225905-M7C1G4 has been Resolved. We thank you for your interaction. Mr Wimpy owner who phoned me and when? I have true caller and can provide all calls received and I promise you there is non from Wimpy. Bad service, bad and sickening food and now lying.

  • 1/5 Google U. 2 years ago on Google
    They let you wait super long to let you sit, then don't ask you what you want to drink or eat, leave you at your table for no one to come help you. Then you find out there is only one waiter to help all of the tables and one at the till. Pathetic place and should be closed. AVOID AT ALL COSTS

  • 5/5 Hannelie S. 1 year ago on Google
    Amelia (Branch manager) was welcoming and assisted us to sit outside with our puppy Henri. Our waiter Collin has a great personality and his service was outstanding. We will definitely stop here again on the way home for the excellent service.

  • 5/5 Denise L. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice stop and breakfast! Collen was our waiter. He was extremely nice and helpful. Food was very quick, so we could get back on the road in less than an hour. Highly recommend!

  • 2/5 Maryke S. 1 year ago on Google
    Wimpy ice coffee one of the worst things I have ever had to drink. Bread barely toasted on one side led alone the other. I am so very disappointed as I have loved wimpy food since my childhood.

    This is probably the service station with the best service all round that I have ever experienced. Big thank you to Amelia in Wimpy. Fantastic service.

  • 4/5 Sean H. 1 year ago on Google
    Service was friendly and great.Had the griller breakfast griller was very plastic and not the usual quality. A fellow patron was playing a video clip loudly with already background music playing, sad how some people have no regard for others .

  • 5/5 Charmaine A. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Andries J. 1 year ago on Google
    Olga was an excellent waiter and she has alot of humor we hope to see her again

  • 1/5 Judelle L. 2 years ago on Google
    Waiters were friendly, but you can’t eat a peaceful meal without being interrupted by flies after every 2 seconds. When asked for a citronella candle due to the flies, on the 3rd ask, the waiter said she is just waiting to get the Doom. How does one use doom in a place where food is served? In addition masks are not worn properly. Manager needs to catch a wake up, other customers also complained.
