Order kebab butties, pizza and sauces. Garlic sauce watered down, may as well be water. Kebab so thin you can see through it. Charge £1.60 a tub for garlic water. Absolute disgrace. Talking about greed. Going totally downhill. Never order from here again.

Made a total hash of my order. Ordered online to be delivered the following day. But they tried ordering the day I ordered. Then when I rang up “no talkie English re-order” so rang at lunchtime today. Actually got someone who spoke and understood English. Order was half an hour late. Batter and chips disgusting 🤢 not even worth one star certainly won’t get my custom again.

Fish and chips were nice but they made a mistake with my pizza. I'd asked for vegetarian without mushrooms or sweetcorn. It was covered in sweetcorn which isn't easy to pick off!! When I rang, Billy was rude, insisting it was my mistake. Obviously hasn't heard of "the customer is always right".

Please do no use. Zero customer service. Placed a large order for delivery. Rang to check when delivery was late (40 mins late), to be told they'd 'lost' the order. I missed a call from them but rang back within 5 mins to be told either cancel the order or accept the delay. This has happened twice from this takeaway and it won't happen again. Times are so hard at the moment and to order a large meal as a treat doesn't happen often. I had a family looking forward to a nice night. This takeaway does NOT appreciate that!! No way to contact the app provider either! Do yourself a favour and try somewhere else.

Just picked up a kebab wrap was firstly over charged £2.00, then when we got it home was the complete wrong order and all the chips were green, when I phoned up to question this was told by a really rude woman that she was only doing her fkn”” job, absolutely disgraced in that response, will never ever go back there again and suggest nobody else does. We used that takeaway all the time as we are local to it, but after tonight will never go there again. Good luck people who go there, they’re a disgrace

Absolutely awful service. When I asked for a receipt, to which I am entitled. I was told that the contactless only produces one which they need, I stood my ground and asked for a reprint. It was reiterated by the woman serving me that this was not possible, I again suggested a reprint. She then reached under the counter and magically produced a receipt, which was thrust into my hand. As I was leaving she said "the next time you come, have a better attitude" I returned to the counter and asked her to repeat what she had said, which she did and then blanked me. I rang the manager later to register my disgust and he kept interrupting me. They demonstrated a complete lack of customer service. I Shall not be giving them any further business. Absolutely disgusted.

Ordered two kebabs for delivery. Delivery time was supposed to be an hour which was fine as it was Christmas Eve. The order arrived slightly late which wasn’t a problem. However, the order was cold which is unacceptable as we live 0.4 miles away, and part of the order was missing. We were unable to sort this over the phone as the place was busy (Christmas Eve as previously mentioned). Food would’ve been much better if hot. Such a shame that this could not be resolved over the phone at the time.

Just been to the chip shop today for lunch time special chips and slice of pizza: on checking my order no pizza so I went back and mentioned the situation. And the young red head lass in there was foul mouthed she spoke to me like utter dirt: accusing me of eating my slice of pizza down the street. I was calm and explained I did not do this. She shouted at me and accused me of lieing: and told me to wait to one side while the owners check the cctv/ I waited and waited and the more customers came in the more she continued to shout at me/ so I said forget it your attitude stinks and walked out: having being a customer of Billys for over 20 years. I will never return if they are hiring people that talk and shout and their customers and accuse them of eating there orders when in fact they are in the wrong not giving me my order/ the young girls attitude stinks she needs a kick up the back side in customer service/ if she was my employee she be jobless right now.

Get the Bolognese, if you eat meat that is. Chilli base if you like a little spice. I've been getting it for years and consistently the best pizza available around this area. I would love to be proven wrong. Even the chips are proper lush chippy chips, unlike most pizza shops which serve yellow cardboard things, plus they come free with each pizza you buy. Fantastic

He visitado Billy's, ya que mover a la zona hace 12 años y 99 veces de cada 100 no decepciona. La comida es excelente, aunque no estoy de acuerdo que a veces parecen patatas fritas que les han sobrado de un lote anterior pero esto no ha sucedido por un largo tiempo. Nuestros visitantes de otras áreas al otro lado el pescado y patatas fritas orden noreste de Billy's para llevar a casa como les gusta tanto. Lo recomendaría a cualquiera de Billy.

Muy buenos precios para lo que es, un chippie! La calidad de la comida es muy común y las patatas fritas han ido aumentado de descenso muy recientemente. Patatas fritas solía ser buena, pero ahora es horrible. Patatas fritas a la hora del té y el almuerzo se sirve comida muy grasosa. Sin embargo, si vives en local, no te apetece cocinar y sólo quieres un bocado rápido después de un largo día de trabajo, el precio es bueno.

I've used this chippy over a number of years and I rate it the best in the area. Whether having fish and chips or a pizza, both are equally appetising.Hygiene standards are very good as are the staff who serve you. Portions are of a good size - can be shared between two for those with a smaller appetite.I would certainly recommend this place!

Pizza's were nice but the fish and fish cakes were genuinely the worst I've ever eaten in my entire life. Extremely dry and the batter was extremely thick and greasy, as if it had been refried with a second or third layers of batter. The thing was a weapon on a plate.
