Most Disliked
Some patrons have noted that the busy periods—especially during weekends—can lead to longer wait times. Occasionally, there might be a slight hiccup with orders during peak hours, resulting in mix-ups. The cash-only payment policy can pose a challenge for some customers unprepared. While the cleanliness is often praised, a few diners have mentioned that it can get crowded and slightly chaotic during peak times. Despite these issues, the food quality generally prevails over any minor inconveniences.

Great little chippy food is always spot on. Do you recommend phoning your order in on a Friday and Saturday as they get very busy.
