Customer Review Summary
Reviewers who are happy single out the chicken wraps, packed with chicken strips and sealed up nicely. Spicy wings, pizza and burgers, especially the peri peri ones, come close behind for taste and portion size. A couple call the delivery fast and the service nice. The complaints are more frequent and center on delivery. Several describe orders arriving long after they were placed, phone calls that kept promising a few more minutes, and a milkshake order that never showed. When food does arrive, it is often freezing cold and soggy, and one customer also had a drink left out. Another describes chicken that was cold, rubbery and flavorless. A few report staff who laughed when asked about a late order, or who answered with eye rolls and sighs. Even one happy regular says deliveries never get the address right, so a partner ends up walking down the road to collect the order.

“Ordered at 5 past 5. Food did not arrive until 7pm and on arrival, food was cold and no longer fresh. We only live 3 minutes from the take away. Real shame as we prefer to shop local, but will not use again”

“This restaurant is terrible as I ordered 2 hours ago in just eat for milkshakes and they keep telling me it is coming. Avoid this place it's not worth the wait or your money 🤑”

“I waited for 1.5 hours for my delivery and when I called they kept saying that it was going to be 15 minutes. Horrific customer service and will never be ordering again. Will not be recommending to any friends. Honestly I would give it minus starts. (At time of writing have also still not got my food) Avoid if you want a remotely pleasant evening”

“We've eaten at this place quite a few times. My fave food here is the chicken wraps. They are well packed with chicken strips and wraps are sealed up nicely. Service isn't too bad, but delivery service is a bit of a down fall as they never get our address right and my partner ends up walking down the road to get our order! Overall, it's a great place to eat 😋”
