Customer Review Summary
The chicken doner draws the most consistent praise, reviewers calling it "really good" and, for one first-timer, "perfect" alongside a kebab "fix" recommended for late nights. Close behind, the pizza earns enthusiasm too, praised as "banging" and loaded with "lots of cheese and toppings," though one visit found the chicken pizza's dough with "raw patches." Chips draw a mixed record: several reviewers report them arriving cold, greasy, or missing promised cheese on a "cheesy chips" order, and one calls a large portion "laughably inadequate." Complaints recur around service and delivery, orders arriving wrong, waits stretching past an hour, a driver banging on a door at 1am, and staff described as rude when asked to fix mistakes. One reviewer also reports finding a hair in their kebab, and another describes being sick twice after eating. On calmer nights, though, one late visitor recalls staff letting them use the bathroom and holding onto a lost phone until it was found.

“This was, without exaggeration, one of the most profoundly unpleasant dining experiences I have ever endured. From the first bite, it became painfully clear that quality, care, and basic culinary competence were entirely absent from this establishment. The flavour was poor, actively repulsive, leaving behind a lingering aftertaste that I can only describe as nauseating. Regrettably, this was not a fleeting discomfort, I was physically sick twice afterwards, which speaks volumes about the standard of food being served because I haven't threw up in years. Service offered little redemption. My friend’s order was prepared incorrectly, and the response lacked both urgency and accountability. Rather than feeling like paying customers, we were treated as inconveniences. The portion of chips was laughably inadequate, so sparse that it felt less like a side and more like a symbolic gesture. It felt like we were rationing them, which would be almost comical if the experience weren’t so bleak. Taken as a whole, this visit was a masterclass in how not to run a food establishment. Poor food, careless service, and miserly portions combined to create an experience I would strongly advise others to avoid at all costs. There are countless places where your money, time, and health would be better spent. I will not be returning, and I cannot in good conscience recommend that anyone else does either. P.S the young kid working there who took our order was very unpleasant and most of the food preparations were done by other people who were incompetent”
