Looked at the reviews and the pictures on site, disappointed on arrival. Staff were rude and ignorant, they were not forth coming with information when asked and they had no customer service skills. When making a choice of what to eat, undermined our choices. Staff could be heard talking about viagra and about other people in loud tones. Wont be coming back!

Went back to 3 monkeys after a few years. Ordered the chicken Burrito however there was hardly any chicken. Full of rice. Really disappointed. Also £2.50 for a box of Fries is ridiculous overall cost over £11 for a burrito and fries. No drink!

That was absolutely fantastic. Four of us ate there and had wraps, burgers, fries and halloumi fries. Really reasonably priced, but the quality of the food is exceptional. All made from scratch, really fulfilling and great value. The staff were really pleasant and helpful and didn't look irritated that we took a while to decide on what we wanted. We'll be going again for definite.

We’ve been going for years and years as the food and taste is top notch. However this time we’ve been very disappointed, we bought 4 Mexican and nuggets. The taste is very much still there but the amount of chicken was very disappointing on all 4. It’s been cut up into small pieces and very little of it. I hope this is a one off and they haven’t followed the trends and are cutting down the potion sizes. There was plenty of rice but not enough chicken!!

If you haven't tried here... You need to try here!! Food is absolutely delicious. I got half rice half chips with jerk chicken, chicken tikka + special sauce. Choose your own salad. You get plenty + food is so tasty everytime! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE if you want something good to eat.

I then choose from the fresh salad selection to complete my meal for a reasonable price. The food was very tasty and filling. The cleanliness of the takeaway was very good also.

Literally got conned at this place. The guys took one look at me; easy target and thought they will charge me double!! I ordered 2 portions of chips with stir fry chicken ontop and they charged me £16!! Isn't this supposed to be a sandwich lunchtime shop? Definitely not come here again, the workers all stare and judge you then charge it seems. Not a very nice experience, its not worth it! Don't go!!

This pace used to be a staple during my time at UCLan. Especially I loved their rice parcels (Chicken Rice, Beef Rice and Fish Rice). The rice was excellent with great condiments, nice sauces, veggies and great selection of chicken or beef. I also loved their Monkey Monkey breakfast option, it is a fusion of desi and english breakfast.
