Customer Review Summary
Reviewers mostly describe disappointing takeaway orders, with burnt fries the most repeated complaint. Fries are called overcooked, solid as a rock, cold and soaked in grease, as if they had sat in the basket waiting to be heated. Delivery problems come up alongside them: one order arrived very late, another brought only chips without the main meal, and one caller says the phone went unanswered after repeated rings. A chicken burger and chicken strips are the only mains named in the complaints. Several describe getting nowhere when they raised problems. One was told to take it up with Just Eat, and another was refused a refund unless the food was brought back. One reviewer suggests the Firehouse nearby instead. The single positive review calls it cheap and cheerful, nothing fancy but solid for the price, a quick tasty bite.

“Ordered chicken strips and the staff started laughing amongst themselves saying chicken strips for a chicken nugget and I was so embarrassed, I didn't know how to react... I should have asked for my money back and said I don't want your cheap white meat. Because that's what they were calling me. I am absolutely disgusted.”

“Service and food is absolutely disgusting. Will be in contact with the Preston council in regards to this issue. Please see the image with hair on the burger. This is the second time this has happened. Money was refunded. Expect a visit from the hygiene officer.”

“DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE. My order arrived 2 hours late. I rang the store...They didn't care. Eventually the food arrived. The food - especially the fries for EACH meal was overcooked and burnt. Solid as a rock and cold too. I.contacted the store again....They didn't care and said "go speak to Just Eat". As we all know that's a cop out because it's like trying to get blood out of a stone. That is still pending. Woke up today and have been in and out the loo all day. I'm going to contact FSA. Total waste of money and feel awful.”
