Customer Review Summary

Fried chicken wings draw the most praise, with regulars describing a fresh, delicious coating they rate above KFC and portions they call generous. The peri peri chicken is close behind, called a crowd pleaser, while the spicy rice, a choice of sauces for different spice levels and good deals also earn mentions. One reviewer notes the place is often busy and not the best atmosphere, and suggests ordering online. The complaints centre on takeaway and delivery. Orders arrived burned with hardly any sauce, a whole chicken order came wrong with a very small bird, and a chicken fillet burger came on a seeded bun after a flour bun was requested. One wrap was drowned in an overpowering hot sauce, and delivered wings felt soggy and cold. Two reviewers fault the chips, calling them horrible or fishy tasting. Drinks packed in the same bag as the food left the drink warm and the food cold, and the paper bag went soggy. One customer asking for a refund said the call was cut off mid-conversation.

    “Very disappointed with my takeaway order today The food was burned, and there was hardly any sauce included, even though I ordered it because I really like the sauce. Small negligence like this can ruin someone's day. We pay for food to enjoy it, not throw it away. Please be more careful with takeaway orders and quality checks.”

    “I’ve ordered the chicken fillet burger meal through phone. On the bun I told them to put flour bun not seeded, it seems that they have put the seeded bun which I have not requested from the restaurant.”

    “Peri peri is good but pls use better chips. The chips are horrible. Also, put drinks in separate bag! Same bag caused drink to go warm and food cold. Paper Bag gets soggy too.”

    “This place has been around for a number of years now and you can see why when you try their food. We have been regular customers since day 1 and never had a bad meal. The fried chicken wings are the best that I have ever had in the world. They are so fresh and the recipe that they use for the coating is absolutely delicious, better than KFC. The portions are so generous too. It is such good value, excellent food at at a great price. The peri peri chicken is also a real crowd pleaser. I have tried many different items over the years and everything has always been bang on. The spicy rice has a great flavour and texture too. This is not just your average chicken shop, go and try it, you will not be disappointed. See you again soon!”
