Quick info
About Roosters Piri Piri
Roosters Piri Piri is a halal piri piri chicken restaurant in Reading, at 11-12 West St, run mainly as a counter where customers collect their orders. The chicken comes with seasoning options including Mexican-style and a tangy sour-and-spicy flavour. The menu includes a half chicken meal deal with peri fries, grilled chicken wings and PERi-PERi burgers, with vegetarian dishes alongside. Two booths and a few chairs give those who stay a place to sit. Staff call you when your food is ready, you collect it at the counter, and you empty your own tray afterwards, as in a fast food restaurant.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return for the piri piri chicken, with the half chicken meal deal and peri fries singled out as flavourful and good value, and the grilled wings, Mexican-style seasoning and tangy sour-and-spicy option praised by one longtime regular. A medium wrap and the tenders also get a nod as staples. Burgers split opinion, with one calling the burger fantastic and another the worst they have tasted, with ridiculous amounts of sauce. Another found the burgers dry and the food overcooked, and said two burgers and chips took a long while.

“Been going this place for years medium wrap legendary staple tenders and half chicken are top aswell however I don’t like the change in chips and prefer the old ones”

“I just popped into this store for food, I guess it was 22:55. Your staff member on till didn't serve me! SAID we are close? As was coming out of door a couple walked in and they start taking their order? Why discrimination? You should treat every one same. "IF YOU ARE CLOSED, JUST LOCK YOUR DOOR"”

“The burger was fantastic, like the service. Only "downgrade" is the chips. Slightly oily but still good. 4'5 overall 👌”
- John Cook
“This place has been a favourite of mine for years but I won't come again after I've just left the worst burger I've ever tasted ridiculous amounts of sauce in it. Disgusting”
- Lisa
“Staff are extremely rude and unprofessional I didn’t get to try the food as I decided to get a full refund as I did not want to eat food from someone that does not care about their customers 🤢 shocking service. Went to Monzanos instead and the staff are amazing in there. I won’t be returning to Roosters until they sort the staffing issues out.”
