As far as charcoal chicken and chips goes, this is as good as it gets. Heaps of sides to choose from, and I love that the staff ask if you want gravy on top or on the side. I do not love that all the meals come in polystyrene packets and the only cutlery is plastic. No need for that - there are plenty of eco-friendly options available for restaurants and take away.
Sunday arvo (2.30pm, 3 April) staff were friendly and efficient, but didn’t wipe the tables between diners while I was there. There was a fair bit of food on the floor under the chairs, too. Plenty of time to chat behind the counter though!

Got the economy pack, 1/4 chook with chips and gravy and a can
Reasonable price but I will say the chicken at Devonport is better

I ordered the 1/2 chicken with 3 sides.
Chips were saltier than my ex on father's day.
Chicken was like something that came out of the crematorium. Gravy was lumpy and tasted like flour.
For the price of this, one would expect at least a half decent meal.
Don't waste your money or your taste buds.

Friendly staff awesome food. I try to eat clean and lean and find this takeaway a reasonable substitute for a meal. The roast potatoes are delightful and chicken is free range

I can not thank management enough for tonights service.(29.6.) We are in Isolation and ordered through uber eats, there was a big mix up (uber eats at fault) & we could not get it sorted through uber eats. I called the store and the manager was so helpful and fixed everything up, he unfortunately is out of pocket himself now but was more than happy to help in our situation. So thank you & your team for tonights service 🙌 ❤️

Omgosh. It was delightful, I ordered half a chicken with a small curried egg. very filling. The chicken skin was mwah. The curry was amazing. The chef, knew how to make the correct amount that wasn't overly strong. Tomorrow will be another day to see how it goes.

Great food, good price. Recommend any of the Burger Combos if you have the urge for a Chicken Burger that isn't like greasy or visually disappointing. I always go for the Exotic.

If you're a weary traveller or tourist and fanging for a family feed, this is the place to go! Recommend the gravy and the hawaiian burger with the pineapple.
