Sticky Sisters in Leeds

Reasonable food at a good price, excellent thick shakes and deserts. Better chips than KFC and decent portion sizes

I came in for the first time yesterday and ordered some wings and I LOVED THEM and I also had some churros which tasted delicious! I’m definitely coming here again 10/10!

If you want to waste your time and money and get a meal like feces, come to this restaurant, unworthy employees and a bad place, I do not recommend visiting it + excessively delaying the food upon request

Always, 40 minutes waiting time to get food ready. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 highly NOT recommended

Bottle of coke was out of date. Had to drive back to the restaurant to replace it. Chips were barely warm and burger wasn't that appealing. Definitely wouldn't recommend the food to anyone

Ordered on deliveroo at 10pm order never arrived and no one answered the phone. Pretty bad service. Pretty sure they just closed at 11pm and left the order live.

Awful food, ordered a chicken burger with upgraded chips but they missed out the toppings. bread was stale, chips cold, gave no options of sauces.

Absolutely shocking service, waiting over 40 minutes for 1 burger and some chicken tenders. No sign of hast on an understaffed kitchen and very unapologetic. No menu system at all so all all orders were delayed, one of the worst eateries ever!

Only 3 people working at a peak time with an act on at First Direct. Not sure what these guys were thinking, service so slow. People getting served in the wrong order before others that were already waiting a long time. Overheard someone say they'd been waiting 40 minutes. Seemingly only one food item coming out at a time. Orders coming out wrong and they weren't always providing receipts to check orders or at least ask for a refund. Don't waste your time.

My experience was a meal of two halves. I chose the basic burger with an upgrade to fries and a soft drink. The sauce on the burger was very runny and any that hadn't soaked into the bread soon ran off the small amount salad. The bread was dry around the edges. Not in a toasted way but in an exposed to the air for a long time way. The chicken burger was way overcooked and gave it a horrible texture. The fries were hot and crispy but mainly firm inside instead of being fluffy. £1.95 for a can of coke seemed a bit pricey. I said it was a meal of two halves...... The deserts were lovely and compared to the mains were decent value for money :) Service was slow, mainly due to lack of staff. The staff were in fact very pleasant considering the pressure they were under. It was a bit weird that the door to the toilets took you through to the Burger King next door! This could be a great place but is let down by the quality of the cooking and price.

Visited today 9/5/22 and well I’ll never come back and I didn’t even get to try the food. Hardly any staff and the staff that was there clearly shouldn’t be working together. There was a fight between your chef and manager that I myself had to split up while they had each other by the throat. All this was over the fact that the buns for the chicken burgers were green with mould! Absolutely disgusting behaviour and clearly the kitchen is never cleaned properly for this to happen. The restaurant was full of kids who where very upset by this.

Slow service and cold food due to understaffing. The staff member was friendly and new. No body else was in apart from myself and three friends. Waited 50 minutes for wings; half mine were cold and a further 15 minutes for my friends burgers. The burgers were cold. One friend asked for veggie burger but received one veggie tendon. Not good value for money. The staff member was friendly but juggling front of house, deleivroo / just eat orders and cooking. Too much for one person. If service had have been quicker we would have ordered desserts and more drinks. Probably won’t be back again.

Slow Service Cold food Well i did not have a pleasant time the service was exceptionally slow unfortunately there was not enough staff to cover sales and cooking meaing that the single staff member had to double up The food was exceptionally slow at arriving around a 45 minute wait to recieive my order. when it arrived the food was cold i suspect that the food had been sat waiting i also feel that for the quality of the food that i received was not worth the price compared to other eating establishments of this type.

Short of staff and very busy, we were lucky second in so ok , but it lacked being run right, shame as food we had was fine.

We ordered through Deliveroo where it's called El Taco, but it's the same thing. Underwhelmed by most of it. The crispy chicken burrito was really slimy. Not crispy at all and tasted of an overpowering lime. The quesadillas didn't really taste of much at all. They were soggy and mostly filled with rice...needed waaaay more cheese. The chocolate Churros were pretty amazing. So not a total loss

Called before a concert . Ordered two original burgers cheesy chips and coleslaw x 2 plus Diet Coke and a beer. Waited 20 min for beer . Food arrived 30 min ( delivery served in between and 1 other couple ). Chicken burger was terrible. Chicken was hard , cold and stringy. Bun cold. Chips hot but had a weird processed cheese taste with in melted cheddar on top. Meal not nice at all. Then came and said they had run out of coleslaw. ( 6.45 pm on a sat ) . 3 young girls running the shop. All seemed very nice but cannot cook . Avoid .

We came as a table of three and were served quickly and with such a warm welcome! We ordered two burgers & some chicken tenders and the food was incredibly tasty - massive thanks to Ana & Awa for being attentive and their recommendations on sauces! 10/10 would recommend!

Georgia & Anna served us - absolutely lovely girls!! Excellent food, service and great atmosphere overall! We had a bit of a complex & large order but it was absolutely no issue - fantastic servers!! 🍔🍟

Anna and Georgia were great they made food for production to perfection! - Saturday 26th march 2022.

Got the original burger, lovely dish…a must have , nice dining spacious and vibrant environment plenty of seating. Thanks

Waitress at the front was lovely and helped me out a lot. Her name was Caryss. Amazing service 😊😊😊

Molly and Harry were both extremely hospitable ensuring I was served properly or if there was anything extra I needed. The actual restaurant was very clean and the food was lovely.

Harry in particular was superb, highly recommend a visit for some of the spiciest wings in Leeds! Cheers sticky sisters Merrion!

Was explicitly told food would be 10 minutes. Cut to 50 minutes later with multiple "I'll get your food out in less than 5 minutes" it still wasn't there. Was made late to another appointment

Terrible service. Dirty tables. Rude staff. Waited almost an hour for the food and it never came even though the place was empty. Waiter kept saying ‘5 minutes’. Chefs in the back were absolutely wotless. Walked out without eating

Food was really good, staff seem lovely, got chatting to the manager who seemed pretty busy but made time for our little natter. Recommend the mango unchained burger! It’s perfect!

We had our staff event at Sticky Sisters and it really kicked the night off to a great start! We organised the group order (of 14 people!) and seating beforehand and this was managed with great care leaving everything to run smoothly and in an enjoyable manner. The place has a nice aesthetic, the food is great and the staff are lovely. I will definitely be returning as a regular customer!

Just ate here before seeing the wanted at the arena, super conveniently close to the venue, fast friendly service and really good quality food. Will be back again next month for another concert.

Nice place, usually pretty quiet but staff all seem friendly and the food is great.. order fairly regularly online but popped in with friends last weekend and really enjoyed the service.. 5star girls!

Thank you girls so much for such great service, fantastic food and it was great getting to know you both while my husband and I have visited your restaurant on multiple occasions now. Always lovely to see you both!

Popped in for a bite to eat with friends just before seeing a gig at the 02 arena, conveniently close! Fast friendly service, food took about 20 minutes to arrive however when it did it was wonderful and very thing cooked fresh. Prices are a...

Waited over 30 minutes for fries and side for take away. Received wrong order, food cold and poor quality

Went to grab a burger before a gig, were still waiting for our food and drinks after 30 minutes and then the poor girl on the counter announced to all the customers that they'd run out of burger buns and it would be another 20...

Appalling. Terrible service, an hour after we ordered we still didn’t have our food. We queried this, were reassured it was being plated up and were then served the wrong order. By this time we needed to leave to get to our show tickets, so...

We have been waiting here for an hour and still no food. We’ve ask for a refund but nothing. I defenetly do not recommend this restaurant at all. Hope my food is ready soon.

I actually use to work here a few years ago and thought I'd give them a go as they popped up on deliveroo! The food was nice, I ate it all, but the quality of food definitely wasn't worth the price. I'd suggest getting in more quality ingredients or lowering prices to the quality it is. But it was nice! Arrived on time and the sauces are decent with plenty to choose from whether you want cool or hot! A good variety of food. Also the delivery guy Joseph was lovely, friendly and provided excellent customer service :)

Food was ok but really not worth the price, don't think I'll be ordering again.

It was decent. The boneless strips were quite tough but the sauce was good. Food wasn't very hot when arrived but only real issue was being given a dirty glass. I feel it's probably worth trying it again to make sure it wasn't an off night so might go back.

We ate here yesterday evening before a show at the Arena. When the food eventually arrived it was tasty enough but that’s about all I can say about the venue. The restaurant was very cold, everybody was sat with their outdoor clothing on, coats, scarves...

Needed a quick bite before going into the arena. Took nearly 45 mins to get our food, we only ordered one meal between us and there were only 2 other tables of people in there. When it arrived the meal was stone cold. We got...

We visited this restaurant before a concert at the arena. We were a bit pushed for time But as everywhere was busy, decided to eat here. What a mistake that was. From the ordering, to the drinks to the serving of food the whole experience...

Came her for food before going across to the first direct arena and have to say both me and my wife was happy with the friendly service and the food was lovely. Would definitely call again when we’re next in the area.

We were staying around the corner, we found this shop online and went and tried it. I usually read reviews first but on this occasion I didn’t and I’m surprised at the reviews to be honest as I didn’t think it was as bad as...

First up, this place is exceptionally clean. I ordered an angus burger that was loaded well with garnish- nicely balanced with the burger and crisp and very fresh. The chips stayed stayed hot throughout the meal which is refreshing. I has sauce number 9 with...

Ordered the sharing platter for 3 for just under £17 including delivery... no idea why they call it a platter as you get 3 small boxes of chicken with 3 small dips.. The drumsticks, 3 dried out awful looking things and the heel of the chicken thrown in.. they are SO disgusting I tried but absolutely cannot even eat them and the heel is just stomach churning.. this place needs shutting down... what a waste of good money and still hungry..

The food was poor. Got a chicken wrap which lacked chicken! Should have been called a lettuce wrap. My partner got a beef brisket one and it was lacking beef too. They also didn't have half the sauces. Not good I'm afraid

As we hadn’t intended to eat in Leeds I didn’t check reviews and boy, do I regret it. Food was poor and overpriced. Table was dirty despite not many people being in. Range of sauces was incomplete. Burger was dry. Focaccia was like cardboard and...

Hasn't changed since I walked out over 2 years ago. Turned up to my shift as supervisor to find the manager had left early on what should have been the busiest night of the week. No food to serve and nothing prepped so had to...

Was visiting the arena for a concert so as we don't know the area we visited here as close to arena. It wasn't as busy as other restaurants to the row so as it looked like quick food and it had a 5 star hygiene...

If this isn’t the worst place I’ve eaten, it would definitely make the final shortlist. The warning signs were there – empty tables when every other restaurant was queuing out the door. I now know why. Firstly, the place was cold. Not arctic but chilly...

Ordered from Just Eat. They called just 5 minutes before the delivery was due to inform me that some of the ingredients were not available. Why wait until delivery time to do this? We are disabled. This has left us hungry for an hour and a half now the time we arrange something else. A courtesy call on receipt of the order is the appropriate way to deal with this sort of thing in business. Not five minutes before the delivery is due. The persons phone manner was also highly unprofessional and the background noise made it impossible to hear them. It took 4 phone calls to be audible.

The choice is limited and the sauces were out of stock. However the food itself was quick and nice so was good enough for the moment

Should of gone to weather spoons . Over priced for what you get, no atmosphere .

Food inedible. Not as described. Air conditioning arctic. Staff unhelpful. Student discount not applied despite giving details. Weird toilet sharing with burger king. Sauces numbered on menu but not on the million bottles. Sauces deeply unpleasant and containers crusty. Swiftly left still hungry. Avoid! Avoid!...

Very slow service (around 45 mins). Pulled beef burger was dry, tasteless and barely had any filling. Very poor.

It was awful service, had to wait 40mins and it never came as the food had not been prepared. Absolutely rubbish and would not visit again 😐

Poor option if you are visiting the close-by Leeds Arena. They took 50 minutes to bring us a beef burger and a chicken burger, and only produced 8 meals between taking our order and bring it out. I don’t know how the kitchen was set...

Ordered 6.07pm, restaurant not full. After 30 mins asked about order and told another 5 mins. After 40 mins told them i could wait no longer and asked for a refund. Apology received and it would appear the food was still nowhere near being ready....

Forget this place guys. Never got to eat. 45 minute wait. Not even that busy. People cancelled orders which STILL came out after theyd left and orders were just forgotten!! We asked for a refund and left. Terrible. Avoid.

Went ahead of a gig at roundhay staff were pleasant and helpful. The portions were enormous we had the platter for 2. Everything was super tasty and we must have tried most of the sauces on offer (all tasty) all in all a good feed.

I do wish you would stop sending this because it is always closed when l am actually close by. However here's a photo of Sticky Fingers in Australia which we have visited and it is very good. Lovely food and friendly.

Went in here on Tuesday with a friend before visiting the Arena for a concert. The initial staff member who greeted us was welcoming and then she was never to be seen again. All the tables were dirty, I had to ask a staff member to clean it which he did half heartedly and only cleaned half the table. The server who took our order was the most miserable unpeople person I have ever come across. Quite heavily pregnant and unfortunately very obviosuly not liking her job. Grunted at us when taking our order spoke so quietly I couldn't hear or understand and seemed clueless over what she was doing. When I asked for a drink that was on draft, I was told they don't serve it! The food came and was cold, I asked for it to be taken back, no cutlery was given and when my friend asked two staff members one which I assume was the most senior member ignored us and both walked away. I had to shout across the restaurant for cutlery. Eventually the pregnant lady gave us some. There was no napkins and the sauces needing replenishing. The tables were left unclean. The staff cleared them but never wiped them down. When we left not one staff member even turned and thanked us or said goodbye. Will not be back!

Another disappointed pre show diner. I now know why we could get in whilst other places were full. Not living in Leeds travelling in to a show at the arena you find a place to eat having battled through traffic and short on time pick...

Like most reviewers this was a pre arena trip. What a mistake. Advised a 20 minute wait which was actually double that. Pretty expensive for what you get (we paid £12 per head). Portions were tiny and not very tasty. Meals were brought out staggered...

Sticky would describe the service, and given a very quiet evening, the speed of service! The tiny ‘half’ chicken (was it even 6 weeks old?) was deep fried into oblivion - dry / crusty / tasteless. The only reason that I don’t score a 1...

Dropped in here ahead of a concert at Leeds Arena. The menu looks promising but the output is mediocre and the service was horrendous. Uninspired and untrained staff meant that orders were slow and incomplete. Shame, because it could be awesome.

I visited this establishment last night prior to a visit to The First Direct Arena. The place from the outside looked ok and the menu looked nice enough for somewhere local to eat. On entering the tables were still full of empty trays, I could...

Went here when it was newly opened and it wasn’t great, but thought it may be teething problems so tried again last night. Friendly welcome when we arrived and shown to our seats quickly. Only 2 other tables were occupied. Went up to the counter...

Had heard about this place on the grapevine. Someone told me they did wings and a load of various sauces to go with them. I thought, what's not to love? A quick read of the online reviews nearly put me off. But I stuck with my gut (it's sizeable), and I wasn't disappointed. We arrived around 1pm Saturday afternoon and there was a couple of other groups enjoying the chilled ambience. We grabbed a booth and looked at the menu. Lots of tasty options. I chose the wings with chips, kids meal for the lad (popcorn chicken and chips), and the missus had a selection of small plates (haloumi, prawns, and nachos). Went up to the counter to order and the chap came from out the back promptly. Placed my order with no fuss, helping me out with my queries (you help yourself to the various sauces which I liked, doesn't limit your option), and explained he was flying solo so to bare with him. The food took a normal amount of time to arrive for food cooked fresh to order, about 15 minutes at a guess. But we weren't clock watching. It was all hot and delicious. The sauce selection didn't dissapoint, there's even a massive random sauce selector wheel on the wall to play with. The lad and I had fun messing with it. The nachos portion was huge, the wings were delicious, the lad ate all his meal, and the wife got loads of prawns and haloumi, all garnished with fresh salad. Top notch. There were a couple of minor general issues that could've reduced my star rating. But I enjoyed the food that much I dont want to mark them down (people are too quick to do so I think). The door was difficult to close (due to the door matt slats being broken) and this meant there was a bit of a draught, so we were a bit chilly at first. But we moved further inside closer to the heating and we were just right. The tables were also a bit dirty, cleared but in need of a wipe (bit difficult to keep on top of that if you're running a shop of this size all on your own, including cooking). So we used a baby wipe to clean down and had no issue with that, I've been to "five star" Hotels and been sat at a dirty table. TL;DR - All in all a good experience. Tasty, hot, good value food, in a chilled, friendly, fun atmosphere. Would return.

After a 45 minute wait for our order, we managed to get a refund for the part of order that had not arrived. Only about 12 in the joint but that was busy apparently. Avoid, no apology, completely rubbish.

Lovely place to spend some time especially in afternoon time with middle class of fast-food but more expensive.

I could honestly make better food and shakes at home. I wouldn't even bite the rubbery hard wrap! And the shake was just watery, not thick at all nor did it have any taste. What a terrible let down, only the good thing is the...

Food is overpriced tasteless junk no taste whatsoever and could get better from next door at Burger King (wish I had) don’t waste time or money

My colleague booked a table for 13 of us for a quick bite out as a team. We had an hour, so we had chosen what we wanted before we arrived to order. We got there at 1:10pm, ordered our food and took our seats....

Visited on 1Feb 2019 as were wanting food before attending a concert at the nearby First Direct Arena. Initially thought it was closed as the door was so hard to open it would not budge, customers signalled to push hard! Once the door was open...

Visited here before an event at the arena, first of all we thought it was shut as the door wouldn’t open until the people inside were telling us to push it harder. Service at the till was quick, we all ordered separately but said we...

Food was good, but time to wait was longer then expected.

Visited sticky sisters yesterday before attending an event at the arena which is over the road. Firstly the door to get in puts people off as you need to be a strong man to open it, then when people come in it doesn’t shut properly...

We visited last night (29th Jan 2019) before a gig at Leeds Arena, we were going to go to Burger King next door but thought this place looked nice and liked the sound of the Aberdeen Angus burger. It was full when we entered, but...

This has to be my worst restaurant experience. I'm sat here now, have been waiting for 50 minutes and still no food. 3 people have requested a refund already, another is in the process as they gave them the wrong order after waiting for over an hour. I didn't get a receipt, when I requested it, they had lost not only my receipt but also the till receipt!! Never coming back here. Don't advise anyone else to come here and this is before I've even tasted it!!! So food finally arrived as shown in the pictures. I ordered 4 large chicken wings - main meal, with fries £7.00!!! A portion of prawns for starters £5 each!! No garnish, a splodge of sauce under one half wing. This is atrocious. My circumstances don't permit me to walk around the city to find somewhere decent to eat, I would have left with the remainder of the restaurant patrons. We all had a show to catch at the arena and adamant this wouldn't ruin the buzz of the evening. A positive in light of the mayhem, and it was manic is that the manager kept her composure. She remained polite and courteous, and continued to coach get staff. Her staff namely the waitress at the till massively let her down. Several times I heard the manager tell the woman to inform patrons that there is a substantial delay prior to accepting orders. She didn't! She told us our food would be ready in 10-15 mins!! She approached our table asking for the receipt to check what we ordered so she could check the order - I had to remind her she hadn't given us one, and that she had actually lost it! She slapped the food on the tables and had a problem with people asking for refunds. She at no point took on board what her manager (under immense pressure) was trying to ask her to do. Ultimately, the restaurant needs someone with more experience, more staff and to seriously consider the value offered to the customer. The food was disgusting. Stale bread on the burger, burnt meat, 4 small half wings that tasted like the packet they came in and... ther pictures speak for themselves! I am so furious, I am going to submit a further written complaint. Disgusting, atrocious experience.

Not great service and very over priced! We were waiting for a long time and decided to go elsewhere.

That busy we didn't bother going in.. That's if you could of got in. Concert at the first direct arena so really busy

This place is wonderful. Plus it's next to bowling and fun games

Overpriced for really basic food.

Best salt & pepper squid I have ever tasted. Pulled beef brisket burger was delicious. An ensemble of different sauces available to try as many as you like. Highly recommended and I would definitely go again.

Should have known something was wrong when we rocked up and it was empty. Scruffy place with a tiny menu choice made even smaller by the fact they didn't have any burger buns when we arrived. . Avoid or take your own ingredients....

A big mistake. 35 minute wait for burgers, they overcharged and served the wrong burger. They didnt have any buns so had to make them wraps. Couldn't understand orders. One burger was cold. And their apology was to randomly hand over two more servings of sweet potato fries unasked and unexplained when we'd only asked for one between us anyway.

Ok for a quick burger , not bad food and quite reasonable

Rubbish. Got the double breast foccacia chicken burger. Should be billed as double-5mm-thick-slices-of-single-chicken-breast burger. In general food just greasy. Go next door to burger king!

Meh bit to o erpriced for what you get but the milkshakes milkshakes make up for it

Not bad but could be better and the prices are quite over

Decent food, nice atmosphere but the price really lets it down. Got four wings and some chips for £7. The wings were basic and tasted like the chicken I can get from Morrisons for £1.50. Chips were also nothing special. No drink either, I'd say even considering the restaurant the meal wasn't worth over £4. Best part was the sauce.

What a wonderful name. I can say no more.

6 of us ate here around 5pm on a Thursday night a couple of weeks ago. The restaurant was empty. The wings are not marinated in anything and they are deep fried. You can have them grilled but they really don’t like doing it. The...

love the food atmosphere,great place to enjoy a meal with great offers

went to sticky sisters last week, last minute team the boys had boneless wings with very hot sauce and onion rings i had fish finger sandwich - wow - one of the best i have tasted with sweet potato fries - wow -- you got...

Good food don't understand why the sauce is not on the chicken though

My friend and I were going to a gig at the arena and were looking for a restaurant in the area and came across Sticky Sisters. I have to say I'd never heard of the chain before but looking at the menu there were things...

Decent food but excellent staff and service, would visit again however, I would choose something different from the menu.
