About Hot 'N' Tasty
On Laygate in South Shields, Hot 'N' Tasty is a fried chicken takeaway whose menu runs on to pizzas, parmesans, kebabs, burgers and wraps, with sides, soft drinks and desserts to finish. The kebab list includes the Zakbab, so there is an option beyond fried chicken for the same order. Spicy chicken wings are on the menu, and garlic sauce comes with orders. Pizzas come in a 14 inch size. The shop opens evenings only, every day except Wednesday, and orders can be placed through its website or app. Groups can order large quantities of pizza, and the staff load the car at collection.

Praise centres on the chicken tikka lemon and herb kebab, which one regular orders most weekends for its generous amount of chicken.

“Ordered 14 inch meaty pizza £14.95 dough not cooked enough very stodgy very little meat on plenty cheese I'm assuming to make up for meat. Also got a large kebab was more like a small portion and not very nice garlic sauce was a grey colour so didn't even try waste of money. Wish I checked the reviews first.”

“Ordered via the website. The order arrived wrong and I contacted the shop to let them know. They agreed to send the correct order out. Which they haven't. We all accept that mistakes can be made but when agreeing to sort and then not leaves them as simple liars and cheats. I was a regular but since they have no respect for their customers I will find an alternative. Be wary people, you as customers are not important to.this business. Update, 20mins after the posting of this review, a whole 2 hrs after speaking to the shop the correct order was sent. I suspect the review had an influence.”

“Ordered 1 kebab & 1 cheesy chips took an 1hr 20 mins to come ! When it came chips had barely any cheese looked more like mayo. ordered the kebab mild it came really spicy I had to have my own soured cream with it ! Then I found some sort of BEEF OR LAMB in it despite only ordering chicken! Salad was all rotten n rank brown edged lettuce won’t be back absolutely vile”

“First visit to hot and tasty today to order 15 large pizzas for my scouts. They did a fantastic job, really friendly staff from taking orders to popping it all in the car when I came back to collect. The food was ready bang on the agreed time, was piping hot and plenty of toppings. Thanks very much. We will be back!”

“WOW! Amazing food 👌🏼 I’ve moved down South & was craving some good North East takeaway food.. my Brother was coming to visit me so I asked him to bring me a Zakbab & Pizza.. All I can say is 😍 the food did not disappoint, cannot beat Hot&Tasty’s quality food. The special pizza was lovely and the garlic sauce is to die for! Zakbab was full of flavour too.. cooked to perfection! Best take out food in Shields! Thank you.”
