Customer Review Summary
Chicken wings and ribs draw praise, with reviewers also naming the duck roll, special curry, and chicken balls as consistently hot and tasty. One diner enjoyed piping hot food and polite staff. But a regular reports shrinking portions, rising prices, and losing free prawn crackers, now charged 10p for a lid. Another says crispy shredded chicken arrived cold and rock hard with no help resolving it.

“Would not recommend at all ordered crispy shredded chicken came rock hard and cold and no help from staff to resolve this issue”

“Ordered through uber eats. Got the kids meal and the portion size was bigger than expected. The chicken wings are great- good flavour and great crunch. The egg fried rice was just a tad bit dry but nevertheless it was still good. Would definitely recommend this place and would order from here again”

“Used to love this place, use every weekend. Used to get complimentary Prawn crackers as i’m a regular. Since then the portions have shrunk, prices have gone up, no complimentary Crackers and told if i want a lid off a box to carry the food, they want 10p. Time to find elsewhere i think”
