Customer Review Summary
Reviewers repeatedly praise the crisp batter on the chips, with one calling it the best chip shop in Nottingham and another enjoying reheated pizza with plenty of toppings. But delivery delays recur seriously: one reviewer waited 2 hours past the estimated time, another described cold food arriving near midnight after being told it was "on the way," and a third left after 45 minutes waiting on chips and gravy.

“BEST Chip Shop in Nottingham! Had my second delivery from this place today. Honestly, if you like proper chip shop chips then get them from here. Quick delivery, ultra crisp batter, and great friendly delivery guy! Don't miss out - it's now my favourite place!”

“If I could give no stars I would. I waited 45 minutes for chips and gravy and after repeatedly being told to wait 3-5 minutes for the chips to be ready, I eventually left as they never appeared. As I was leaving one of the staff members shouted 'oh nice woman' like mate, be so for real!! Waste of time.”

“Ordered pizza through Just Eat. It arrived earlier than the scheduled time - not a problem for me, but sometimes people might not be home yet. Pizza was good, plenty of toppings, dough was okay but nothing amazing. Honestly tasted even better reheated the next day 😄 Overall really good and I’ll definitely order again.”

“Food is nice but guy on the counter is a bit over friendly. We ordered through phone and they delivered wrong order and blaming us rather than solving problem. They never send bill with the food. We are never going to use them again. Edited : we gave them another chance today and call them 10:30pm to delivered 11:15pm but they failed so we called them 11:20pm and caller said its on the way and we will receive in 2 minutes but they failed so we called again 11:35pm and caller asked everything again and almost refused our order and when I said I have to complain about this and he said do whatever you want do we dont care. Thats very rude. Owner needs to take some action on this. We are just 5 minutes away from. The store. They delivered the food but around 11:45pm and it was cold”
