Customer Review Summary
Friendly, helpful staff draw the most frequent praise, with reviewers singling out the front counter and the store manager as welcoming and willing to do anything asked. The food follows close behind: juicy, well-flavoured peri peri chicken, a sauce with a balanced heat, and peri wedges that one reviewer highly recommends. Another enjoyed the burrito, quesadilla, chicken burger and mac and cheese bites, though the peri chips were called a little salty. Heat is a recurring snag. One diner found the mild still quite spicy, and another ordered hot and mild dishes that both arrived extra hot, with no spoon, tissue, dip or straw. One reviewer calls the food pricey for what it is, and another describes a very late delivery that arrived freezing cold and spilled in the bag. One click and collect customer reports lemon and herb wings that looked raw inside and says staff told them by phone the pink came from the peri peri marinade.

“I come to the Livingston restaurant fairly regularly,and I’ve been served by Laura quite a few times now. She’s always absolutely lovely. She’s really friendly, has a great chat about her and is always extremely helpful. To be fair, I’ve always found the staff here to be great in general, but Laura definitely stands out and is a real credit to the team. Food has always been brilliant and no issues with any orders Thanks again for the consistently great service!”

“Had such a great experience at Black Rooster Livingston! The food was lovely and came out really quickly, highly recommend the peri wedges 😋 The staff were so welcoming, especially Kieran (I believe the store manager) who served us. He was genuinely so nice, you can tell he really enjoys his job, cares about his team and wants the store to do well. Nothing was too much trouble for him at all. 10/10, will definitely be back again!”
