3 pieces, but 1 was a chicken wing, so not ideal.

The last couple of times the food has been disappointing. Cold gravy. Cold chicken in the burger and also the barm is always dry and stale. It has definitely gone down hill. I won’t be coming here anymore. Used to always have hot fresh food. Didn’t even get a lot of chips. I’ve given it a couple of chances by going a few times, but for some reason the standards have dropped. Will be going elsewhere from now on.

Used to be a cheap and cheerful place was actually good, Now big prices bad food, So how was it not great to tell you the truth £36 with delivery should of gone to kfc tbh at least they won’t supplement 2 pieces of chicken with hot chicken wings definitely not worth the money and i used to be a regular customer for a little while, So was curious why the price went up so much, It’s not for quality well thats all im gonna say. I don’t want nothing don’t even need a apology just a customer lost

I regularly order from allens and often recommend to friends. However., this evening I ordered a meal at 9.30pm a meal for my family as I'd been working late to say I was disappointed was an understatement a whole nuggets meal missing and no apology or warning just a bag of clearly whatever was left in the hot hold cabinet dry chicken hot wings. From a regular customer I feel disappointed I hope this was just a rare one off as if receive a meal of that standard again im afraid I'll be looking elsewhere.

The food came a lot earlier than quoted, which was a good thing as my son was complaining about being hungry, but for the amount of food that arrived, £12.99 was extremely over priced for one meal. Just eat didn’t do anything wrong, but I won’t be ordering from Allen’s Fried Chicken again

Used to be a lot better but the new owners got rid of a lot of the old staff who'd been there years and its definitely dropped in quality. Wings are usually greasy and bland. The chips are basically the only thing I'd recommend.

Im sorry to say not impressed at this at all firstly the website is rubbish when it comes to putting your address in, secondly after eventually i placed the order which normal delivery is 40 to 45 minutes only to receive an email informing me it is delayed by a further 15 minutes. They charged me for delivery which i wouldn't have minded if on time and the further insult was the 40p service charge for a poor service. They need to learn about customer service and their promise on their website well back to kfc for us. We ordered at 5 past 6pm this before i even placed the order and we amended the address via phone and online food arrived at 7.35 pm further to this the spicy wings that arent very spicy where bigger than the chicken pieces i would suggest looking elsewhere for a traditional chicken meal. Also you told me that it was ready now then said it left 5 mins ago only to arrive a further 10 minutes later. Plus ypu also charge more for collection which you made excuses to me before so let the general public make their minds up now.

Clearly to take the piss someone has added more than half a tub of mayo to this chicken burger. Im not exaggerating when i say that there was enough mayo for maybe 6-7 burgers. Its like someone took the amount you would normally put in a burger out of a jar then instead of using that used what was left in the jar. There is no way this was an accident, probably a late night worker who was bored.

Missing coleslaw from my order. The carton of Vimto I ordered arrived and it was cola. The bun the chicken burger was in was hard round the edges and stale. The gravy was disgusting watery and more like water. Chicken portions unevenly coated leaving chicken skin exposed in some areas while other areas had huge clumps of the coating and that all it served to do was absorb the oil it was cooked in. Very disappointed the whole order went in the bin. That's £10 down the drain...I wouldn't even let my dogs eat it.

Called in here a few months ago when passing through Horwich, had the lunchtime special fish and chips and i really enjoyed it. . So last Thursday i made a special trip from home which is 10 miles each way 20 miles round trip, it was midday and I could see 3 fish in warmer, 2 looked lovely but the one nearest to the staff did not...there was a few customers before me, i was hoping one of them would get a fish but none did so i was served it...i went back to my car to eat it hoping it was better than it looked .. but it was mostly batter and the fish was so hard and dry it looked like it was warmed up from the last time they opened on the sunday..i really should have walked back and shown them, . all that expense on fuel, time and then unedible poor food and being a poor pensioner ...i won't recommend or go again and i was going to treat my 86-year-old cousin with a meal who lives in Horwich at some point. after luving my 1st visit and telling her to try Mr chips out . i don't normally write reviews but felt compelled to this time.
