Vincicoppolas Pizzas in Braintree

Before I start, I'll just get 2 details out of the way. Firstly, I always leave honest reviews, which is why I have at present over 6.8 million views on my reviews, and I'm in the top 10% of reviewers globally. Secondly, I REALLY hate to leave poor reviews for a local business. However, I've really no choice but to say what I need to. I have used this chinese takeaway for 19 years, and sadly, I've seen the food be excellent and hot to not so great and tepid. Last night, however (8.3.25), it was the worst ever. It was ordered and collected at 8.30pm, so it is not late or overly busy. We ordered sweet and sour chicken balls, plain chow mein, and chicken chow mein. It was just plain awful at best, cold and tasteless. The noodles tasted like plain spaghetti and the 6, yes. 6 pieces of chicken in the chow mein were also bland. The chicken balls were overcooked on the outside, looking as if they'd been re dipped, and the chicken was slushy and not chicken meat consistency. Sorry, but this was worse than poundshop fakeaway. Only almost £20 was considered a waste of money. On the subject of money, they will only accept cash. The reasons for this are contrasting as last December they said it was broken and awaiting the bank to replace it but yesterday's excuse was everyone who went there only paid cash and therefore the machine was never used. Whereabouts these masses of people walking around with only cash and no bank card or smartphones is beyond me, never seen them. There's really only 1 reason takeaways, etc. Take cash only is very clear, and I think we all know it. Would I be going here again, never. Would I recommend, not a hope. I'd only recommend you go elsewhere out of the village.

Dont know why this Domino’s gets so much hate? Pizza is always really hot when either delivered or collected and the staff are really friendly. If there is ever any issues they always sort you out either refund or replacement.

Always clean, Fresh, good quality, friendly customer service, fast & hot delivery.
