Customer Review Summary
Chicken and chips is what reviewers return to most, with diners describing it as cooked to perfection, and one calling it the best they have had. Close behind are the combo meals, which reviewers call good value and generous in portion, along with the wings, which one reviewer rates among the best in London. A few mention the proper chilli sauce and the pizzas, with one saying the shop smelt nice and did not smell of dirty oils, and another saying it beats KFC and Dominos. Staff are described as welcoming and polite. The complaints concern delivery. One reviewer who ordered the tower meal says the bun was rock hard and felt about a week old, and another who ordered a pizza through Just Eat says it took ages to arrive, was only warm, and was smaller than expected for the money. Two of the reviews instead praise a neighbouring cafe, Romford Station Cafe, rather than this shop. Reviewers who dine in describe a friendly counter where orders are taken as asked.
