Went on my break there to get something basic and as I went into herrons to get my food it was busy and ofcourse I thought it would be good to wait until they were ready. 5 mins had past and they had almost cleared the line of 4 people as I was standing there the 3 members of staff were working away but also looking at eachother. Ended up not being able to order anything because I wasn't served and my break was nearly finished even though I had been standing there for a length of time. Service in that place is terrible and there's a group mentality amongst the staff. Preferred customers are served more quickly while the others are left to wait

Gutted how bad this was. I love herrons and it can be hit and miss depending on which outlet but Newcastle has went to the dogs. Small portion, chicken was like rubber with a chemical taste and had zero skin on any piece so I don't know what the story was. And the smallest amount of taco I've ever had , usually it's swimming in it. Rathfrisland herrons is the only one that is still like it used to be . Hate giving a low mark as it used to be a 5 but like a lot of places now it's just nowhere near the way it used to be .

Took my 86 year old Mother for a trip to Newcastle just to sit and watch the world go by as she has mobility issue’s. She said she would like a chip with a chicken gravy dip. The chicken gravy was so runny it was impossible to eat. My cheesy, super chip was freezing as was my husbands super chip. Again the sauce was like water at the bottom Hence why the food was cold & uneatable. Very disappointing

The food was ridiculously priced, got a taco chip with salad and a kebab with an extra fillet, and they charged £20 even though two kebabs with an extra fillet would have been around £17, we ordered less food and got charged more, absolutely ridiculous pricing, never been charged this before, hope you get good staff because some will outright rob you

Hi i have disabilities one of is ptsd and have a little French bulldog for assistance it clearly says "boyd therapy dog"on his harness when I went in to this place for some chicken I was asked to leave my assistance dog outside when I explained he was an assistance dog the member of staff just replied ya what ever like he didn't believe me or there was no such thing as an assistance dog it was very embarrassing there were other customers there wait on there orders I could feel an anxiety attack coming on so had to turn around and leave after I eventually got over my anxiety but it stopped me enjoying anymore of Newcastles lovely town and we had to return home.

Awful experience every time, im now no longer spending my hard earned money at this place! It’s a joke the attitude from the staff members can be smelt from Kent arcades. Atrocious service my two month old son has more personality. Asked for a fork and it was as if it was coming out of the fellas wages, i would have paid for it if needed. The man with glasses and dark hair has the most horrible attitude towards all minus the blonde co worker, i guess he’s not nasty to friends then! Horrible trip overall. For such a nice town the people working in this joint do not reflect on the town of newcastle Co Down.

Going down hill steadily. I'm a local and have been going here for decades. The prices go up and the quality goes down. It's sad to say the chicken is getting drier and smaller and they have changed either chip supplier or how the chips are cooked. They are not nice anymore, like little bricks. The chips look the same but aren't. Also good luck getting salt, napkins and a fork! Used to be standard and now hardly ever. Poor show Country.

1st trip to Northern Ireland for me and my wife visiting relatives. They were taking us sightseeing when we stopped here for dinner. Their description was a KFC style chicken kebab with chips and gravy and salad. We were intrigued. The shop was soon full of locals so it must be popular. We were not disappointed. It all went together very well and it was very filling. It was the same price as KFC, which was across the road, which we are big fans of. But this was a nice change, and I'm sure we would have returned if we had been staying longer.

First time in Newcastle Herrons and really only went in because I noticed the queue was quite long. (a good sign). We had a six box chicken and a gravy chip. The service was great, as was the speed of service. As for service and speed, couldn't fault it. As for the chicken, far far superior to "The Other Place" across the road. The chips were ok and gravy ok too. ( I ate them all anyway) Definitely be back for more. Thankyou for saving me cooking that night 😁

For the price of £6.40 for a chicken burger meal jeez! Firstly the place only had small kid drinks and water available instead of proper fizzy drinks, secondly the chicken burger was dry hardly cooked, too much mayo and the bun was falling apart, my friend bought a 6 piece all different sizes mostly small pieces. No toilet roll (fair enough most places wont have any so I'll let them off) and the chips were tasteless there was no salt in the takeaway bag. the staff were friendly but overall it was the worst part visiting Newcastle, NI.

I would avoid at all cost. We ordered out of here tonight. The staff where friendly so you couldn't fault that. The food was barely there. We ordered a chicken fillet burger, to that all I can ask was where the chicken was !!!!! Wasn't even as big as a mini fillet out of KFC that turned up in the burger it didn't even fill half off the bap. Then the chip and cheese turned up in a tiny bow with a slight dusting of cheese over it which was gone in about 5 forkfuls. I had ordered by looking at the picture which was my next mistake a 2piece box of chicken. Thinking it was like a mini fillet which would have been grand. But nope I got to pieces of chicken which where on the bone and hardly any chicken there. Plenty of batter though. So needless to say we had to eat somewhere else afterwards to fill us up . Will definitely not be back.

The reason for the lost stars is simple. I was asked what I wanted, so I told them... I was then asked an additional 3 times which was a little annoying and then still missed an item off my order.
