I recently ordered a takeaway mixed kebab from this branch. I arrived close to closing time, so I understand there may have been time constraints. However, the kebab felt a bit rushed, with noticeably less salad than expected, which affected the overall quality.
What was a bit disappointing was the lack of communication. A quick heads-up about limited ingredients or reduced quality would have helped set expectations.
I’ve had better experiences at other branches of the same chain ( I believe so), so I know they can do better. Overall, this was an average experience — not bad, but with room for improvement, especially in consistency and communication.
