Just got back local from the Maxi Priest concert in Manchester, what a night, but was STARVING !! The girls shouted S.F.C even before us guys. So pretended that we would go with their choice ( even though we were more desperate than them to devour their succulent chicken best sellers ) As always customer service ON POINT Food styled and tasted AMAZING Valued for monies paid ALWAYS Overal TOP SHELF Not just saying but if you not been and tried You will never know . . . . .
🍗Best fried chicken on the planet SINCE 1985🌍
It's the best chicken out of all the Asian chicken places in Bradford. They do strive to ensure you have a quality service and do ask if there are things wrong so I can find nothing but great service here to recommend. I enjoy the chicken and yet I can also find myself somewhat agreeing with other reviewed (rarely) that sometimes the chicken does feel a bit soggy, or not very crispy. More often than not it's great and still better than the rest, but there are times when they can miss the mark on a bad day. That's why they get a 4 star on food. It's an easy 5 if they perfect that consistency or better yet, get a really crispy skin on the chicken.
Well I the first time I ate chicken sandwich from here was when I was 17 and I am 38 now and I have been eating it every now and then all this chicken sandwich is really delicious it fulfills my taste sense
This is a well established place that has been open for many years so I was wanting to try it out. Ordered a fried chicken burger meal, donner wrap and chicken & chips. I’ll start with the negatives. The chicken burger (as pictured) is anorexic, I’d say there was only around 70% of chicken in that bun, the rest; air. Taste was passable, not amazing but not bad either. The donner wrap, I would not order this again. The donner required a lot of sauce to get past the “processed” taste. Positives. Food was made quite quickly. Pleasant service. The chicken and chips were VERY nice. This would be the only reason I’d return. I’d recommend the mint and chilli sauce on the chips. I know the owner reads and comments on these reviews so I’m hoping he takes this criticism on board and improves the dining experience.
