Everyone was very friendly with big smiles. The girl read my mind, asked for 2 chicken rolls and she said "warmed up with gravy?" Absolutely. Didn't have to wait long and the rolls were phenomenal. Thank you and we will definitely be back

Fried chicken is good, mighty have a curry like spice mix. Chips are great. The salad was good but there was too much sauce. Fish & tartare sauce wasn't terrible but not really worth getting, the batter wasn't crispy and tartare was basically mayonnaise.

Down from Sydney for a few days and stumbled across this place and had some of the best chicken and chips ever! Really juicy chicken and perfectly cooked and seasoned chips. Service was so lovely too. Warm chicken roll with gravy was unreal and the 1/4 chicken and chips is very generous. Would highly recommend to anyone passing through

Great service and great food. Their bbq chicken is delicious. The seasoning they use is tasty. Their chips are nice and crunchy. Their chicken tenders we started getting recently and we are loving them because they have a nice crispy batter that’s also nicely seasoned. Their staff are lovely too. Happy to have this as our local take away!
