Accidentally put my order in to this location online but actually needed it on Newtonards road. The woman I spoke with was extremely understanding and accommodating despite having already made my order. She phoned the correct location and put my order in with them. Fantastic service!

Had a fish supper from here and it was more batter than fish, also the ‘mushy peas’ were dry and came out of the carton in one congealed lump. The lad at the counter was pleasant enough but the woman serving should have a think about her customer service skills. When I was there a girl had to come back in after having gone home and found items missing from her order. For the cost of the food, you could do A LOT better. Won’t be back.

Chicken was inedible. Goujons were tough in the middle and chewy. Batter on the sausages could’ve broke a tooth and the chips were tough. Food wasn’t cooked right at all. Wouldn’t recommend and wont be back. An absolute waste of almost £30.

Ordered at 6:40pm with estimated arrival between 7:20pm to 7:40pm. At 7:50pm the app indicated the food was out for delivery but late. Asked the restaurant for an update and was advised that the time had changed to 8:20pm. A full hour after earliest original ETA with no apology or explanation. Very disappointing with a hungry family and a £50 order.

Driver left the food outside. Said they wrapped the door but we didnt hear it and said they phoned but my phone never rang. The food was soaked in the rain and cold. They also sent a single fish instead of a Chicken Fillet Burger. I rang when j we noticed but the driver had gone home...so we were stuck with the cold, soggy fish. I asked for a refund, was told to request it through Just Eat and they'll approve...that was over a week ago and I still haven't had a refund. Will never use again.

Absolutely rubbish, Lucky to get 1 star. I have just ordered a fish supper in Ards, got it home less than 5min drive chips were the dregs of the basket the fish was tasteless and very greasy plus not exactly warm, the whole meal??🤮 went in the bin. Second time I have been in this shop and last order was sausage supper last year, was also disaster so thought I would give it another chance as it’s closest to home. Sorry but today was my last visit and no recommendations from me. Prices are high enough without having to throw awful takeaways in the bin.

Thought I'd treat Dad by getting take-out from somewhere new, but it was a complete letdown. First off customer service was awful; staff lounging around while we were wanting to order. The price, £18 for 2 burger meals, rip off. When we got home, the portions were tiny, I've seen larger kid's meals elsewhere and the quality was moderate at best. Would not recommend to anyone and certainly won't be going back myself.

Estimated delivery times on just eat are not updated or realistic. Delivery was past delivery time and still not going to be delivered for a further 20mins at least, according to shop. I ended up collecting the order. The whole point of ordering a delivery was because I was just out of hospital and shouldn’t have been over the door. Not very good customer service! Delivery times should be updated. I was less than 5 mins away from the shop.

We got just slightly more chips than you would get for FREE if you had ordered a battered sausage! Will NOT be back and would not recommend at all!

Made the huge mistake of ordering from this place. I wish I'd read the reviews first. We were told that delivery wouldn't be long, 2 hours later we were still waiting. Rang the shop and was told it was "with the driver and wouldn't be long". 40 mins later still no food so we decided to cancel because expecting customers to eat food that's been lying in a car for over 40 mins is frankly disgusting. Tried cancelling but they wouldn't answer the phone, even hanging up a few times. Eventually the driver showed up (2 hours and 55 minutes after ordering) and we had to cancel it at the door instead.
