Sams never failed to provide us with delicious food. We are long time customers and highly recommend. Portions are great especially the family deals they are great value for money

I have no idea why there are so many negative reviews. The delivery was on time. The food was hot. Unlike the market leader the portions were reasonable. The quality was good. I guess some people are never pleased.

I’m surprised by the abundance of less than stellar reviews. I’ve personally had great experiences at Sam’s Chicken, that matched the expectations I had for a takeout “fast food” restaurant of this kind. It’s quick, it’s messy, it’s good. Granted, I’ve never ordered delivery, so I can’t speak to the reviews that are based around that, but I’ve had no issues whenever I’ve gone in person. I had the Peri Peri and BBQ wings, as well as the sweet potato fries. The fries were alright; there wasn’t enough salt or flavour for my personal preference. However, the wings were a standout. In particular, the Peri Peri were fantastic. I’ve ordered them a few times, and have never been disappointed. Something that really pleased me was the attention that was given to my gluten intolerance. I asked the staff if they could accommodate a meal around that, and they were very helpful in pointing out what I could eat, and re-iterating multiple times that it was gluten free. Overall, Sam’s Chicken Watford is a decent and convenient spot for your chicken wing cravings. You’re not getting Michelin starred chicken, but that’s to be expected. If you want greasy, indulgent, and drenched in sauce wings, this is a great place to try!

We discovered Sam's Chicken about 6 months ago and were pleasantly surprised at how yummy the food is. We go there quite regularly now if we're after convenience food. We always order the same thing and eat there: spicy or regular fillet burgers and coleslaw fries. We REALLY like the coleslaw fries. I've since read others' reviews and am surprised at the number of poor experiences. So far, we haven't had any issues with the food or staff or cleaniness of the venue and hope it stays that way.

The most Stingiest fast food takeout I have come across. Let me start by saying that not all Sam’s franchises are bad it’s just this particular one. It is an absolute rip off. 6 wings meals is £7.49!! And a normal burger meal with two wings is £9 bloody pounds. To top it off they only give you free ketchup. It’s 60p for a tiny tub of mayo and any other dip you want. Not only are they stingy with the prices and the sauces, they are really stingy with the portion sizes. My burger was absolutely tiny and the portion of chips was horrendously small as well. They basically gave me a kids meal. This store doesn’t deserve to charge people those ridiculous prices especially in a working class area. It’s diabolical that they’re even functioning on this road. Rios and a few others don’t have bad prices on the road but Sam’s, you guys are absolutely taking the mick with those outrageous prices and portion sizes

Poor service .. ordered a meal with a drink from deliveroo as soon as I opened the food bag my drink was missing. I called Sam's and the response was that I did give the drink so I don't know anymore. You should have checked. The guy was so rude. He even said that I did my job. So if you want the drink come and get it. If I could get the food why would I order at first place. No refund was given and no courtesy. Lastly to even call Sam's it took multiple calls and finally they had answered. DONT ORDER FROM HERE .

The restaurant as usual is great!! The chicken is tasty, we go for the family deal which is very good value. Great chicken coating and I like that you get a salt packet in the bag to do yourself as it stops chips getting soggy. The driver from just eat however is a different story. He drove past us to go to the other side of Watford with our order during rush hour to deliver elsewhere then delivered our food on the way back. So frustrating when drivers do this and it's hard to raise it with just eat.

There's a lack of nice sandwich shops close to us so with this opening we thought our luck was in! Looks a lovely clean place and staff friendly but our order of three sandwiches seemed to throw them despite a empty shop the order was incorrect and items not available. I hope they sort the issues soon and I may retry
