Five Lads Goodmayes in Redbridge

Delicious food, grilled chicken is an absolute hit for me. Tge chips,burgers and other sides are Delicious, woulda loved alil more on the mixed veg side so yum with courgette etc

If they send you bad food just open missing item complaint to uber eat u will get refund no need to complain they want to make as much as money to send rubbish

10/10 food and service. Thank you to the Bengali brother. Half chicken meal was 10/10.

If you come here without trying the smash burger then there’s something seriously wrong with you, one of the most unique and exquisite burgers of all time. Their fiery dip is a must try aswell.

Fantastic food! Affordable prices and lovely people. Lemon and Herb is my favourite.

Friendly staff. Food was served quite quickly and cooked perfectly. I had the Gourmet Beef Burger Meal. Was nice and succulent. Would defo visit again.

Very poor customer services, I do not recommend this place to anyone!

Everything was perfect and amazing, the food tasted beautiful and was grilled to perfection, the person, hussain, who took my order was extremely kind and made me feel welcome to the shop.

I love this place especially due to the smash burger it is exquisite. The brother hussain who made the burger was extremely kind.The pair of sisters working at the front Maisha and Maryam had great customer service and amazing social skills. I saw how hardworking they were and I would come back just to receive that kind of customer service again.

My experience at Five Lads Goodmayes was great! The food was perfect. One staff member in particular Maisha is very welcoming and her customer service is amazing! I will definitely be visiting Five Lads again.

Really amazing food and service

Khadeejah was a pleasure to deal With, food amazing as usual, served a group of 12 with no stress

Came from Uber Eats after ordering from time to time. Such a great meal and service was just as good. The manager is great. Do not hesitate to visit if you are considering, as I will definitely come again soon. -Jacob

I had a deeply disappointing experience that I feel compelled to share. I discovered a long hair embedded in the beef burger patty I ordered. This was not only disgusting but concerning, especially as I was serving this food to my children. I promptly brought this issue to the attention of the person I believe to be the owner. Instead of addressing my concern with the seriousness it deserved, he initially denied the problem altogether. Even when I showed him the hair coming out of the patty, he deflected blame onto the supplier and refused to take responsibility for the incident. After much insistence on my part, he finally refunded the cost of the burger. However, his attitude was dismissive and disrespectful throughout the entire interaction. As a customer, I expect the establishment to take ownership of such issues and to respond with empathy and professionalism, especially when it involves the health and safety of their patrons. While I appreciate the refund, the owner's lack of accountability and poor customer service have left a lasting negative impression. I hope that necessary actions will be taken to address these concerns and improve the overall hygiene and customer service standards of this restaurant.

It is very nice place to eat in The team there are friendly and so helpful The food is so tasty 😋 I can recommend it even for delivery

Best food around by far, all food is juicy and cooked to perfection. Love the marinades and sauces 100% recommend this place 👍🏼

Great dining experience, always making sure we’re good and stand up personable people, that are easy to talk to. Price of the food is almost too good to be true given the top quality product they have. Special mention to their grilled chicken, once you try it you won’t look anywhere else for grilled chicken.

Always had a great experience here; great food, good quality and service and a hit with the kids.

Delicious food as always. The best service from Aj and Hussain. Highly recommend if you are in the area. They’re even on uber 10/10

The nicest eat in restaurant in goodmayes. Great atmosphere and reliable food always. I've had take away as well. It's just as good. Staff here are lovely too. This place wouldn't be the same without Maryam!

My experience at five lads goodmayes was amazing. The customer service was 10/10. The food was ready faster than most places I order from which is a plus as time is the key to whether or not a customer will place an order or not so excellent job at that. Now the food….. the food was amazing, it was fresh, tender and juicy. The drinks menu is perfect as there is an excellent range of drinks. Even their milk cake are soooo good. This restaurant is definitely my favourite on the high road. Shout out to AJ for looking after us every time, he plays a big part as to why this restaurant is my favourite !!!!!

An amazing experience from start to finish! From the phone call to place my order to the very last bite, everything was exceptional. The service is always outstanding, run by a group of dedicated brothers who take real pride in what they do. A special and heartfelt thanks to Brother Abu Junaid, who took the time to speak with me for over an hour and was incredibly welcoming. I wouldn't hesitate to come here again!‎ جزاكم الله خيراً Hammad

I pop into Five Lads at least once a week to treat myself, usually ordering a boneless quarter or half grilled chicken with potato wedges. The food is always spot on and for the price, you really can’t go wrong. The staff are warm and welcoming, particularly AJ. He always makes sure my order is prepared swiftly, just the way I like it. Whether you’re a local or just passing by, it’s a great place to grab a good quality meal!! Zaky Zakariyah

Delicious food and excellent customer service! I highly recommend it to anyone in the area.

customer service was amazing food was great would most certainly be coming back very special thank you to lad in the glasses

Always the best place to go to if you want good grilled food, The service was also very good so thanks to AJ for serving us

Good food, cooked well, 5/5 but a bit too expensive, should be a little cheaper since its standard/normal food. Side note, staff are always nice and everything, and not to get anyone in trouble but while i was eating with the missus, the younger staff were swearing and stuff a loud, not a big deal for me but kinda ruins the atmosphere, wouldn't bring missus or want my younger siblings there probably. Next time I'll probably take food home unless I'm just there with the lads

Never have a complaint always amazing chicken

Food always banging, would recommend everyone to try

Great food paired with great customer service. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area.

Ordered via uber eats. The chicken arrived under cooked and raw pink inside. Called the restaurant to complain and they didn't take accountability and said other customers haven't complained to them can't take it seriously. The food Wasn't packed properley and came leaking with the bag ripped. Luckily we spotted the pink chicken before catching salmonella

I ordered from Five Lads Goodmayes via Uber Eats, and it was a very disappointing experience. The food arrived leaking because saucy items were packed in cardboard boxes, which clearly wasn’t suitable. To make things worse, the chicken was severely undercooked—when we pressed it between our thumbs, it was pink inside, and there was almost blood-like juice coming out of it. Despite this, the restaurant told us, “that’s how it should be,” which was shocking. When we called the restaurant to raise our concerns, the person on the phone kept giving us excuses about why the food could have been the way it was, rather than accepting what we were telling them. Even though they were closed to the public, the person answering the phone was still inside the shop and refused to come to a resolution with us. Terrible packaging, unsafe food, and very poor customer service. I wouldn’t order from here again.

Standard place for a munch - the guy serving up was like half sleeping or not bothered - lol but the food was good

I enjoyed the rasher smash burger with a large side order of peri chips. It was much better than the chicken wings, and the regular lamb burger. The staff are friendly and welcoming, although giving a little more attention to customers would improve my rating.

Brother name ishmail made my smash burger which was amazing and his hospitality was superb, professional service. Thanks you will definitely be coming back:)

Great food mashallah. Definitely recommend the smash burger with peri peri fries. Very friendly service.

The best of the best !!! Delicious everything 💛

Hands down one of the best shops around ilford, Thanks to Ismail, great customer service

Customer service was amazing by these two certain individuals Hussain and Fayzaan they made sure my food came on time they made me feel welcomed so thank you for having me and will be back again soon :)

Amazing Service from Faizan and Hussain! I had the pleasure of being served by Faizan and Hussain at Five Lads, and I can confidently say they made the experience exceptional! Both of them were incredibly polite, attentive, and efficient. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, making us feel genuinely welcomed. The food was delicious, but it was their wonderful customer service that stood out the most. They worked seamlessly as a team, and their positive energy was contagious. Five Lads is lucky to have such dedicated individuals representing them! Highly recommend visiting and hope to be served by these two stars again!

NEVER WAITED AS LONG IN MY LIFE. Went in here at 7.10pm and ordered a half chicken with peri chips. There was literally 6 people in the restaurant, and a few of them had already been served. 30 minutes passes and not one sign of any food, guy in kitchen seems to be only worried about takeaway orders (very strange when there are literally customers sitting starving.) Manager appears from kitchen to deal with complaint, tells kitchen to prioritise these complaint orders above the people sitting waiting. Such an absolute joke by the way, just completely ignored the diners. FORTY FIVE MINUTES PASS - I ask the lady serving “can you tell me how long my order is gonna be?” Returns 2 minutes later telling me it will be “five or ten minutes.” No apology or acknowledgment of the wait. 5 minutes pass I throw the receipt on the table and leave. Never waited so long for food in my life. Absolute joke.

Fantastic food, cooked to perfection. Fast service and we were not rushed when eating our meal. A wide range of burgers and chicken dishes available. You can select the level of heat when ordering.

Came the other day and loved the food. Had great service from our server hamna who made sure we weren't missing anything and made it a memorable experience.

Lamb chops were bland, tough and dry. Chicken strips overcooked. Smash burger lacks flavour. Not worth it.

I placed this order a little while ago. I spoke to the colleague at Five lads immediately once the order had been taken through ubereats. She informed me it will be cancelled and I will get a refund. Little did I know they cancelled it and stated that they had already started making the food just to make a little extra cash. After speaking to Ubereats they informed me the restaurant informed them they had already started the order. The manager is very rude, his response is to speak to Uber when they can’t admit the fault from their side. Never again!!! So I basically got charged for food which I never received. Don’t trust these people!

Best grilled chicken in Goodmayes! Friendly staff, my kids all time favourite.

The staff were very friendly, especially ‘My’, she was lovely and very helpful, food was also very good.

A quick stop to our local grill house. We all knew exactly what we wanted to order. Food was lovely. Fast service, and a warm atmosphere. What more could you want!

The best thing about them is their grilled chicken. Definitely worth the price !

Very good food flavour is amazing would recommend 100%. The staff friendly and the service is fast. Never disappoints.

I’ve been a reoccurring customer of five lads, both in person and delivery and I can say with confidence that they provide exceptional customer service each time as well as generous portions. The food is always upto great quality and taste, have never had any complaints. The wings are amazing each time and cooked to perfection. Thank you mai (I apologise if I misspelt your name) for your kindness with my order yesterday. I’ll always be a returning customer

Food is well cooked and according to my preferences, which is why I have become a regular customer. When I ordered, a staff member, ADNAN, personally handed the food to me. He was very friendly and welcoming.

Delicious food and very good quality burgers. I love Five Lads, every time I buy a meal, Im never disappointed. I look forward to my next visit - thank you Five Lads

Tiny piece of chicken in pita bread

Always Enjoy Coming Here!! The Brothers are very Hospitable, Respectful and Caring. They now have began an Initiative to Stamp your Card which is good 😊

Too expensive and not worth it… dry burgers, horrible chilli sauce, chicken wings and chicken with some cheap sauce on the top

Really friendly, quite reasonably priced and good food.

I can say that both the service and food was on point, props to hussain for serving me and my family, ensuring we had a wonderful experience.

Good food but staff are rude and inexperienced, didnt have any patience to take our order properly. Would never go there again.

I called to make an order for collection and was told to hold as he was taking someone’s order. I was left on the call for more than 10mins hearing the staff having conversations with others. I then hang up and tried calling back countless times with no answer. I then decided to visit the shop and saw there were no customers. The food was dry and the chips were soggy. I liked this shop before but won’t be returning.

One of my worst experiences on uber, they changed the time 3 times took ages to make the order, kids had to go bed they deliver 45 mins late absolute shocking. I won't be ordering again.

Food was superb. Excellent spot to enjoy amazing food with amazing customer service.

Amazing customer service, staff are welcoming and food is delicious- my go to place for lunch. Amazing from your regular 12pm customers

My go to lunch spot. The brothers are always accommodating and always received food with love. Much appreciated and will be returning again and again.

The food was absolutely yum. Everything was on point and the smash burger is too good and can't forget the lemon and herb sauce.

Bunch of moody kids running the place, appalling service. Instead of standing there talking they should serve the food to their customers instead of waiting for it to get cold and then getting complaints. How hard is to cook wedges? These guys apparently burnt them and then made us wait another 15 mins whilst the burger was already eaten. Won’t be coming back here in a hurry that’s for sure.

I went with my family and being honest the service was unexpectedly bad. I need to ask for the tissues and asked for the cutlery by myself after receiving the food which is not the problem but the guys could have inform easily if we need anything else or not. Burgers were so so. The chicken burger was not good at all as the pattey was hard.

I was going to give a long review explaining the 2 star rating but… I think this photo of the mashed potato pretty much sums it up. Waste of an evening.

Generally eat here and enjoy their food but second time in a row this has happened. I order 2 box meals make the effort to go in and order take away, come home and my strips are missing. Service is so poor too staff barely pay any attention.

First time I went there. Very bad service. Food was served cold and then we had to ask for drinks after eating half of our cold meals, no cutlery given. We’ve all had bad stomachs after eating here. Would not recommend to anyone. Waste of money and time.

Been here several times and each time the Chicken was on point, lemon and herb is my choice and the chicken falls off the bone - always delicious. Generous portions. Sauce selection was also good. Will be back for more grilled chicken, respect to the workers - always accommodating.

This is the second time I have got burnt chicken. It tastes bitter and Smells. Ordered a take away.

Brilliant this place is, truly a amazing experience customer service was great.FOOD is wow chefs kiss

Best Halal Beef in town. 💯 Staff is so decent and helpful. Cheers.

Went to five lads with my family and have to say service was great so was the food. Really enjoyed the food, the young brother who works there told us how to get 10% off by joining five lads. Quick and easy just had to scan a QR code and name and number thats it, so was happy with that. The only issue I found at this place was the smell in the bathroom. Overall : 8.5/10

I've never not had a satisfying and filling Meal from here. Always reliable. On this occasion I went and they had missed my strips, I called and they were happy to replace and rewarded me with an extra item. The staff are nice and friendly. Love their generous portions of chips too.

Had a great experience at this Five Lads location. Tried their smash burger and wings and everything was delicious.

I have been a loyal customer of Five Lads Good Mayes for over three years, and while I've enjoyed the quality of their food, my overall experience has been a mix of satisfaction and challenges. The culinary delights crafted by Five Lads are undoubtedly good. Their flavours are rich, and the variety offered caters to diverse palates. However, my recurring concern lies in the delivery service. As an online customer who has never visited the physical branch, my experiences have been marred by instances of incomplete orders. On several occasions, I've received incomplete deliveries, leading to inconvenience and embarrassment, especially when hosting gatherings. Despite prompt apologies and refunds from the branch, the issue persists. The lack of delivery drivers to fulfil the orders raises questions about the overall logistical efficiency and customer satisfaction measures in place. Last year, there were inconsistencies in the spice levels, with the 'hot' category often resembling 'medium,' and 'extra hot' lacking the anticipated intensity. Fortunately, this issue has been addressed, and the spice levels are now aligned with expectations. However, the persistently missing components in orders, such as fries with chicken or rice with chops, raise concerns about the order fulfilment process. It prompts the question of how well the order sections are managed and the attention to detail exercised in the preparation and dispatch of each order. I urge the workers and management of Five Lads Good Mayes to empathize with customers facing these challenges. While the food quality is good, addressing these persistent issues in order completeness and delivery logistics will undoubtedly enhance the overall customer experience. I look forward to continued improvement and a seamless dining experience with Five Lads in the future. Food 4* Service 1* Portion size 3* is not worth the price

Very bad customer service always forgetting items when ordering.

Whenever I order they forgot something it happened 2 time with chips and drinks I ignored it but today they don't put burgers when I called we forgot come and collect

Before leaving the shop make they complete the order because always they give less and say sorry

Best smash burgers in east. Great place to go for a bite whether it’s grilled chicken or a quick burger. The dessert is also banging if you’re feeling something sweet. Kind staff and a lovely atmosphere.

Grey sludge, so bad...can't believe how quickly it's gone down hill. Don't waste your time or money on this place.

Consistently good food, only thing is it takes forever to arrive because of all the delivery orders they get.. Had to wait up to an hour on occasion in an otherwise empty restaurant.

Great food and has amazing service. I wouldn't say the atmosphere is the worst but a nice family friendly place. Would recommend.

It was amazing experience having such a good an halal meal at Goodmays. Service was outstanding and taste was very delicious.

Really good service and attentive hostess.

I recently dined at Five Lads Goodmayes and had an exceptional experience! The atmosphere was welcoming, the food was delicious, and the service, especially from Maisha, was outstanding. Her attentiveness and friendly demeanor added a special touch to our dining experience. Kudos to Five Lads Goodmayes for a fantastic meal and to Maisha for exceptional service!

Lemon and lime wings tasted so fresh- the sauce yum. Chicken burger and chips tasty.

The burgers they do are amazing and the quality & freshness is perfect every time.

Loved the smash burgers and the milk cake! Tastes much better than Nando’s and nearly half the price. Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff.

The food was delicious. Nothing beats their burgers and milk cakes. Had a lovely time and would recommend everyone to try it out.

The food, especially the Chicken Fillet Burger and the new Smash Rasher Burger, was tasty. While the wings didn't quite hit the spot for me, my friends liked them, so it's probably just personal preference. Also, big thanks to Aminah for being patient and providing excellent service, especially since we had a large group of more than 20 people. The staff's accommodating attitude made your meal even better. All in all, it was a fantastic dining experience.

I usually do not write reviews. But I have to say, five lads is one of the nicest places to eat in East London. Me and my mate ordered rasher smash burger. Amazingly, cooked. I would like to say a huge thank you to, the hostess and adnan (chef) for their magnificent service!

Went to Five Lads in the late evening around 10pm of which there were a few other families there too to our surprise! Even though it would close at 11pm. We ordered the loaded box of which we weren’t disappointed, the burgers were nice and fresh and had a high quality feel to them. The loaded box also came with a drink and side of choice, all for £9.99 which is pretty decent too. Will definitely recommend coming here if you’re in the area and feel peckish and it will certainly fill you up.

Had lamb chops and Peri chips with banana milkshake, the entire meal was SPOT ON also the service from Amina was also wonderful, she constantly checked on the customers and made sure we had a good time. My girlfriend had barbecue chicken with coleslaw and strawberry milkshake, and again, SPOT ON Definitely worth my next visit
