Customer Review Summary
Pizza is the most common complaint, and the details are consistent. Diners describe toppings sliding off, a base that fell apart when picked up, raw dough that tasted of flour, and a burnt small vegetarian pizza. One reviewer who ordered a 16 inch pizza found more tomato sauce than anything else and cheese they called cheap. Another says an 8 inch pizza was actually 7. Wraps come close behind: one arrived soggy, and the replacement with a different sauce was described as even worse. Kebabs draw criticism too, with chicken called rubbery and a little pink in the middle, and kebab meat so dry it seemed like leftovers. One reviewer reports being physically ill after a chicken wrap. Several say the standard has dropped from what it used to be. Praise is limited to one family meal everyone enjoyed, plus a staff member on the phone who went above and beyond and a polite, helpful delivery driver. Another delivery arrived with part of the order missing, and staff cited a shortage and offered to put it on account.

“The lady I spoke to on the phone, went above & beyond to accompany our meal request tonight. So thank you very kindly. The food came in good time, no complaints & the delivery driver was extremely polite & helpful.”

“Raw dough, still tasted like pure flower, could have halfed it and re moulded it into 2 diffrent pizzas and cook again.”

“Horrible pizza. Topping slides off greasy and tasteless.”
- Carol Parker
“I wouldn’t even give this 1 star. Ordered a 16 inch pizza, more tomato sauce than anything else, toppings just sliding off , cheap nasty cheese and tasteless. Pitta bread was burnt and garlic sauce was lumpy. All went in the bin. Waste of money. Disgusting 🤮”
- Brendan King
“Got kebab meat and chips at 5pm today. Kebab was very dry, like it was a left over from week before. Not great”
