Benito's Hat (Goodge St)

These burritos are HUGE!! Stuffed full of rice, beans, guac, salad and i always get extra 'salsa del diablo' to make it really spicy! I normally spend are £10 so it's not the cheapest lunch, but the sheer size of them make it worth it when you can spend £6 for a small sandwich in the nearby cafes! Which arent half as tasty! Great staff, friendly atmos and clean.

We started going to Benitos Hat when it first opened. My partner and I only eat free-range meat, so before we went we asked whether they used free-range chicken. They said yes. Great.

We have been about half a dozen times over the last two years, but recently I noticed standards slipping and had a less pleasant experience.

So, I emailed them (three times before I got a response) to ask them whether they did use free-range chicken, and it turns out they don't.

I don't know if I was misinformed the first time I asked, or whether they have driven standards down in order to expand. Either way - I'm not impressed, and won't go back.

Wonderful place for a takeaway, I use it frequently. However I would never dine in there, why do they have to ruin it by playing 'music' so loudly that I have to shout to the staff to make myself heard?

It's almost impossible to go anywhere now without being having to yell over noise but Benito's Hat (Goodge Street anyway) should be referred to the noise team.
