The food is consistently good. I always get a half chicken meal deal with peri fries and I have it hot as the sauce/marinade is very flavourful. It's a good price as well for such nice food. The atmosphere definitely lacks as it's mostly a takeaway place but has 2 booths and a few chairs to sit down if needed. In terms of services, they just inform us when the food is ready and you go up and collect it. Then when you're done you just empty the tray, like in fast food joints. So there isn't an element of service, which is perfectly fine for a place like this. Overall, great tasting chicken especially for the price point. Best for takeaway or delivery instead of eating in

Awful service today, ordered buffalo wings over the phone for collection in 15 minutes they said which is the only expectation they met, and when I got home I saw the food ordered was never the one I received (got little grilled wings) I started calling the restaurant and never received a response no one answered and then eventually they turned their phone off or whatever, as it kept going to voicemail, avoid at all costs and save your time go elsewhere, well done Roosters, used to eat a lot of your food but now you’ve lost a customer.

England is a country where it always rains. I entered the store and it was raining, and unfortunately I was a bit wet. The attendant came to me and gave me papers to dry the floor and the bench I sat on. I think it's not the customer's job to clean the restaurant! I felt embarrassed and I won't come back again!

I went here after a long time as last time food was very disappointing but this time there was a big improvement we had half chicken with chips and drink and a peri peri burger meal both were on offers we had both mild and the chicken was very juicy and soft, only downside with the meals they don't give you chilli and garlic sauce instead just give you ketchup sachets apart from this everything was nice

The guy doing wraps messed my order. Order machine does'nt have sauce choice for wraps and when asked him about sauce , he re-opend the wraps and put a blotch of hot sauce on the wrap. I asked him should'nt you be cooking this with sauce on , he said no this is how we do it !!!. When I brought meal home, my son was so disappointed as the entire wrap was under cooked and disgusting. Also this meal is supposed to have two fries , we were given one and that is also half filled. Worst of all ,found a hair in the wrap as well. Disappointing and money wasted.

Stopped going to this place a while ago due to chip portions getting small and overall quality going down hill while price going up. However decided to give another go this time one of the burgers was extremely chewy grossly and tasted weird so didn’t eat chips portion small as usual except now overly seasoned so so salty and wings which used to be this places best thing out now much smaller and tiny compared to what they used to be just a reminder not to go back I do not recommend this place.

Normally, I'm really happy with orders from here. However, yesterday, our order was slightly wrong and a bit disappointed with the peri peri fries as there was not much seasoning on any of the 4 portions of chips we ordered and paid for. This will not stop us from ordering from here again, though, as their chicken is the best in Reading!

It's actually a shame used to love this place order all the time, your buffalo thigh burger and the hot wings are still mine and my partners favourite thing to eat, however you charge £3.69 for piri fries and the portion is just ridiculous I wouldn't even call it a small amount of chips we asked for more in the bag and you still sent the same amount knowing full well we are very regular customers who spend £35/£40 each order... on top of that I really wish you'd pack things a bit differently each time I've ordered I've always had cold food as you put the burgers on top of the cold cakes, or even better yet you put a cold drink on top of hot food, it's a shame but I don't think I'll be ordering again.

I used to like Roosters but the quality has been reduced in all senses! They have reduced the size of their meal and increased the price! The burgers don't taste as it used to! We were with kids and ask for an additional disposable paper cup and they said they can't give an additional one! If they want to survive in this business climate, they really need to change how they serve their customer and what they provide (this was far too expensive for what they give and how they treat you)!

The chicken is always good, juicy and yet cooked through and plenty of sauce. We live the fact that the chicken wings are the full size buffalo ones - not the tiny ones from other places.

Thanks for selling coal black chicken fully burned. You don't know BBQ, don't know tender well cooking flame. Stop making people cancer. Better for you to quit from job and go into mining charcoal business. But I don't think you can also make easy money from there anymore as it is not sustainable anymore due to fossil fuels not demanded anymore. Otherwise I would advise you to produce electric from burning chickens

The chicken strips and chips/wedges are great, the chicken had a very nice BBQ flavour and it was tender and the chips and wedges were crispy and had a nice flavour. The bad things were that 2 strips were missing (which there were meant to be 12 but I got 10) and the vanilla milkshake was cheaply made, the quality was like a cheap store brought vanilla ice cream mashed up and melted which was put into a coca cola cup, the only positive is it was wrapped up nicely. Overall, the food was great and the delivery time was right on time but Roosters do better with the vanilla milkshake (or do not do vanilla milkshake).

I have eaten at many restaurants in ChinaTown and this 'for me' is equally as good.. Also usually also go for a House Special in Szechuan Sauce which is great as well.

Disappointing - we went with a group of 9 people on aweek night having pre booked , the restaurant was practically empty . Although the server was friendly they were not particularly attentive given we were supposed to be on the all you can eat menu , we would have expected them to offer to refill the dishes. The food was not great and tasted like everything had been cooked from frozen, the crispy duck in particular was horrible , not crispy at all! At £37 per head it was a disappointing and expensive experience .
