Quick info
About Chicken Shack
On Crossgates Rd in Leeds, Chicken Shack is a fried chicken takeaway at number 133 that also runs a kebab side of the menu. The chicken comes fried in batter, with a 6 piece option, and grilled chicken is available as well. Burgers include a classic chicken burger on a brioche bun, and wraps sit alongside them. Donner kebabs share the menu with a kebab stir fry topped with cheese, so one order can cover both chicken and kebab dishes for a group with mixed tastes. The range also includes desserts.

Customer Review Summary
Fried chicken draws the warmest praise, with one diner calling the six piece succulent and juicy and noting it came straight out of the fryer. The grilled peri burger and a shake are also called delicious, and several reviewers describe welcoming, friendly staff and tasty food at good value. One adds that the dining room was tidy and clean with mellow lighting. The criticism comes mostly from first visits. One delivery order arrived late, with dry chicken that was mostly batter. Another reviewer found the brioche bun wrong for a classic chicken burger, and the fillet uneven, thin on one side and very thick on the other. A kebab stir fry was described as swimming in a cheap sauce with tiny bits of cheese, looking nothing like the online photos, though the service was still called pleasant. Against that, one regular who has come for seven or eight years says it has been 10/10 every single time.

“Ordered for delivery from here for the 1st time and it wasn't a great experience. -The order was 30 minutes late -The food quality was quite poor. It was mostly dry, with most of the chicken being half batter (which was beyond crunchy) -For some reason, the drink cans had an awful smell to them whenever I took a sip Overall not great, hoped for far better considering the effort they put into their advertising on social media.”

“First time and defiantly the last! The kebab stir fry was swimming in a cheap sauce with tiny bits of cheese on top, certainly won't be eating there again. The service and the guys were very pleasant, such a shame about the food. Looks nothing like the pictures on the internet.”

“Food was top notch, came straight out the frier, service was great, staff were welcoming. Recommendation for the food would be 6 piece chicken, chicken was succulent and juicy. Will definitely be coming back.”
