Food arrived over an hour after I had ordered. On arrival I noticed that the burger I ordered contained chilli sauce instead of relish. I would have much preferred the advertised sauce, but it wasn't too big of a deal, I was so hungry I decided it wasn't worth complaining about. However, after eating the burger my friends noticed two hairs in my food, that very clearly did not belong to me. One hair looked like eyelash, my eyelashes are long and dark and these ones where much shorter and a bit lighter in colour. My beard is short and the hairs seem where clearly longer than my beard hairs as well. After seeing this I couldn't finish my food, and considering the wait time + the incorrect burger, I thought asking for a full refund was reasonable. Upond asking for this, the guy initially refused , gesturing to me and said "look at yourself" (I have long hair). I then explained you'd clearly be able to see that the hairs on the food did not come from me, me having long hair is actually why that fact is so obvious. The man behind the counter then accused me of planting the hair and claimed I was "taking the piss" because I was somehow angry or bitter at the long wait. This obviously made me really annoyed, especially since I wasn't the one who even noticed the hair in the first place. Me and the worker got into a bit of a shouting match over this. While I won't deny I was mouthy as well, never in my life have I received verbal like this from a member of staff, and frankly it's disgusting that he'll probably still keep his job. I was called a tramp multiple times, threatened and told to watch my mouth, and told to never show my face there again, all because I wanted my money back for the wrong order that was an hour late and was also seasoned with the disgusting workers greasy hair. The refund I received was £1 short of the price I payed, but the situation was too tense for me to really worry about counting in the moment haha. Moral of the story only come here if you love long waits, hate getting the correct order, and have a special craving for a side of hair.

Wow! My partner and I visited Cardiff and was stuck for choices of food. We managed to source this lovely Roscoes, with so much variety, and not so expensive. I had ordered the chicken shawarma and my partner ordered a peri peri chicken burger meal. I have never tasted such mouth watering food with a excellent customer service too! If your in Cardiff, make sure you visit this place!

The bad boy Bombay burger was great and literally the best deals in cardiff, I checked! Delicious food, great portions and the owner was very friendly. He noticed I was a tourist and we talked for half an hour, he was generous and gave me a free dessert. The hospitality is unmatched as well as the quality and value for your money. I will return whenever I'm in cardiff.

Went to the new shop on Newport road, first visit we were told that there was over an hour wait for food - we left. A couple of days later we rang an order through and picked it up after 20 mins, was ready on the counter for us and steaming hot. The food however was AWFUL, bland, tasteless and poor quality. Would not go back here. Get yourself down city road somewhere for the real deal!

Had to wait about an hour for my meal! since it was a card transaction, we were told to go through Just Eat. Now that the money was paid, Roscoe's did not want to know us. We were made to wait while they dealt with cash paying customers! Meal is usually good but the staff is incompetent! They defo don't know how to deal with customers. Rude and lacking manners....

Was really dissapointed with this place. We ordered peri peri chicken wrap meals and where to start. There was hardly any chicken in the hard wrap, it was full of salad and watery mayo. There was no peri peri flavour and it was very bland. The chips were very dry and had hardly any peri salt in it. The only thing that was nice was the chilli dip but even then they only gave 2 tiny tubs for 4 meals?

They know what it takes to grill a chicken properly here. The chicken comes out of the oven looking very enticing, sumptuous and ready for the belly. For me, Roscoes Chicken passes the vital test of the portion size...you got enough good quality food on your plate to satisfy you and gives the important feeling of "you got your money's worth ', and it's very tasty too...try the Roscoes special.

Been here multiple times never had a bad meal! Half a chicken rice, chips and salad for £5 is the best value for money meal I've had in a long time! Chicken has real nice flavour and is fresh. If your a nando's type person I would say this is much better than any nando's I've ever had and it's around 3 times cheaper. It is a take away at the end of the day dont expect a full nando's service but if it's just food your comparing then it pisses all over nando's

Delivery driver was rude and not to mention very late, when I spoke to him he just shrugged and didnt even apologise. Phoned and got passed around but still no apologies.how this place is still trading I have no idea. Only a matter of time before someone seriously I'll. Avoid at all costs.

I quickly returned to this little gem...they had remodeled, the place looks great. The owner greeted me with a warm, "welcome back , so good to see you, it's been too long". I couldn't believe he remembered me after all of this time. I'm only here for two weeks....I hope life brings back to Cardiff again in future years so I can enjoy Roscoes again and again!!!

I moved to cardiff from london recently and couldn't find a decent takeaway for a while untill I came across this little gem on accident my taxi driver made the best mistake of his life he dropped me off at West bute street where they are located instead of Westgate street where i asked to go, I went into roscoes to ask to call a taxi the staff where amazing they offered me the phone even though they thought I weren't going to buy anything, that made me want to buy something I got the half chicken and rice cost me £5.25 i was shocked honestly it was the best chicken ever and the spicy rice was out of this world plus i got my food in no time at all which was a bonus, I've been to a lot of takeaways in my time but they really are a step ahead of the game from the friendly and attentive staff to execllent customer service to the reasonable and affordable prices for such good quality food can't fault them they got it spot on deffo worth a visit.

Absolutely abysmal quality of food provided by Roscoes. We have been regular customers for a number of years and held our tongues as the quality started to go down especially after the change in owner/ management/ chef whatever it was. This order however has left me speechless - our regular order has been spicy rice and half chicken so we are well acquainted with the spiciness of the Roscoes rice. This time their chef can’t have put on his glasses or dropped an entire pot of chilli in because it was inedible. INEDIBLE. To make matters worse the customer service turned from bad to horrendous- we made a complaint and were told we would receive a complimentary order next time. I’ve attempted to make an order since 5:30pm today and been fobbed off with excuse after excuse as to why they can’t fulfill their promise. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. Laughing stock of a business!
