Customer Review Summary
The zinger chicken and chicken pieces draw the strongest praise, described by reviewers as crispy and juicy, with one singling out the barbecue pot sauce. Against that, the majority of reviews focus on delivery breakdowns: repeated accounts describe waits stretching past an hour and up to two hours, with phones going unanswered when customers call to check on orders. One reviewer describes becoming unwell with suspected food poisoning after eating the chicken. Others describe undercooked chicken patties in a burger meal, and a shop that ran out of stock and borrowed wings from a neighboring takeaway, resulting in a long wait and chicken described as extremely salty. Multiple reviewers report food arriving cold, including a burger called a "cold sloppy mess" and chips described as soggy or dry. One order arrived missing its sides, with a promised extra drink for the delay never appearing either.

“Ordered on Uber Eats. Two hours later it hasn’t arrived. Called through Uber Eats the phone was off. Found a number on Google. Tried to explain what my order is for 10 minutes to be told to await a call back. I then called again 10 mins later to be asked to explain again to be told “10-15 minutes” again. I requested to cancel my order as I have a meeting and no longer can collect and eat my food because of the delay and they hung up on me. First and very last time I order from them. Now I need to try and get my money back! Avoid!”
