We decided to get dinner on our way through Newcastle and stop at this fast food establishment. We purchased for £18 a chicken kebab and a chicken wrap meal. The word chicken should not be on the menu for these because there was basically none. after queuing and ordering we were informed that there was no red onions or tomatoes. A quick walk to Lidl would have fixed that. Poor experience of poor food.. will def not be back

We went here while on holiday, chicken is OK skin not crispy but sloppy very greasy, very slow service seems to me they can only do 1 order at a time, even though there are plenty of staff on, but they are just standing talking and staring at the customer's, but they don't actually take your order. Herons chicken used to be the best totally different taste now, long before I would go back, and you only get 1 good size piece of chicken and the other piece is a wing in the 2 piece snack box.

Extremely irregular quality. Used to be great, way better than KFC. Then got new ownership; apparently recipe and cooking instructions weren't part of the deal. Ordered from them a few months ago; no idea how you manage to overcook fried chicken closer to the bone while leaving outside soggy. Gave another shot last week; much improved although the outside was crispy & the meat there nice & moist still overlooked, mysteriously near the bone. But if new owners discover other seasonings than salt (was oversalted for me; but most people use a lot of salt in everything which makes it harder to taste salt, so probably ok by most people's taste) but if they figure out other things exist to season fried chicken (like thyme) & get cooking times down a bit better, then they'll be a welcome addition indeed to Kilkeel. 3 stars because they improved quite a bit since first try since ownership change and a lot of improvement in relatively short time. Can just drop in; which is nice, and husband said service was pretty good and was prompt. Will try again in again a couple of months and change review accordingly; hopefully improvement will continue and I can up stars then!

Very rude staff. A man ordered before us while there was two staff at the till and another at the back of the kitchen. When we went up to order and said hello, the two women at the till ignored us and walked off. We waited a few minutes to see if they were going to come back to the till to take our order but they didn't so we left. Maybe they're incapable of completing more than one order at a time. Shocking service, will never return.

I visited the Kilkeel kfc fillet on Friday 30th September, ordered a chicken fillet which had numberous bones and fat throughout it, quite inedible and as it was a takeaway I was unaware until I was home. There must have been an issue with the chip fryers also as they were overcooked and hard. I have to say the staff were lovely but the food was very disappointing. I will avoid Kilkeel kfc in the future.

From the outside this cafe is a little deceiving it looks like a certain Fried Chicken establishment. Inside the cafe is split in two, one part is the Fried Chicken takeaway the other part is a sit down country kitchen style cafe. So I had a seat and ordered breakfast. The service was quick and friendly, the breakfast was well cooked and very well presented. I really enjoyed the breakfast served with tea, and toast for £5.50 which was excellent value.

Superb and surely the best chicken outlet in the area. Nice clean and very big service area and great varoety of chicken variations to choose from and in my opinion best complimented by Herrons own very unique chicken gravy sauce makes it food to die for.

Haven't been here for a while, so decided to give it a try once again. I ordered chicken fillet, chips and curry sauce. The queue was lengthy. Quite a wait. When I finally did receive the food it was not as hot as I'd have expected and the chicken unfortunately was rather greasy with a somewhat burnt oil taste. Hopefully this improves on my next visit or it really will be my final one.

Not sure where to start. Staff friendly but that's it,food is probably the worst I've eaten. My partner and had drumsticks white meat on the bone and Chips. Chips were like eating carboard dry and tasteless chicken was just a pile of greese. After eating about half of it both of us felt sick. So folks save yourself the bother and eat elsewhere. WE WON'T BE BACK.

On Saturday afternoon of 24 Oct 2015 I entered the premises of Herrons CFC Newcastle and ordered a 3 piece meal. I was then asked by a HCFC employee, who I was subsequently informed was "Ellie Maguire", if I wanted chips with my meal. I asked her if chips weren't already included in meal, and she replied "no". I thought this very strange, and replied "no chips", and was then served up 3 pieces of chicken without chips or a drink. I then had to order a Fanta. When I got home I realised that I had been charged for a 3 piece meal, but received no chips or drink, and had in effect paid for the drink twice. I then spoke by phone to a female employee who works at Herrons and was told that the 3 piece meal on their menu DID include chips, so I was evidently lied to by HCFC employee Ellie Maguire.I wasn't provided with a receipt for my purchase either. I suffer from a back complaint, which makes it very difficult to walk and drive, and asked the woman I spoke to on the phone if she could arrange to have what money I was owed by HCFC brought to my home. She declined my request. I then emailed Herrons with my official complaint. Herron's "Ryan Heggarty" acknowledged receipt of my complaint by email, and replied with "One of our team members will contact you shortly". That was on 24 Oct 2015 and I still haven't received any contact. Herrons sell edible chicken, it's just that the staff they employ leave a lot to be desired. Because of my customer dissatisfaction with HCFC, I have been left with no option but to post my negative experience of Herrons CFC, Newcastle, Co. Down on a number of relevant business review sites including this one, as I feel it is my duty as a consumer to make the general public aware of just how woefully bad the staff at this establishment are.Lying to customers about what is included in a so-called "meal", which according to one female staff member "Ellie Maguire", is not a meal at all, speaks for itself. If ever in Main Street, Newcastle, Co. Down, Northern Ireland and feeling a bit peckish; do yourself a favour, and instead of visiting Herrons CFC, pop across the road to KFC, where you are guaranteed some quality chicken, and some customer service that doesn't include being needlessly and unfathomably lied to, and ripped off.
