Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted January 18, 2025 Paid Members Posted January 18, 2025 I think some takeaways just don't travel well. I've had a shite experience with getting a KFC delivered too but never had any complaints when I eat in. Chippy food doesn't travel well either, and pasta. McDonald's is invariably soggy and shit. But pizzas, Chinese and Indian, they all seem hardier when being delivered. Quote

Its shit and I'll never eat it again* I just had utter self loathing straight away after eating it, and it sent me into a right old funk. Chinese and Indian options come from the village, less than a 5 minute drive, so always piping hot. Everything else is around 15 minutes away. *I'd obviously eat it again tonight ffs. Quote
Paid Members Callum1993 Posted January 19, 2025 Paid Members Posted January 19, 2025 The KFC near me is shite. They always get the order wrong, miss something out or are just incredibly slow. The upside is pretty much every time I order from them I end up doing the feedback form and getting a £20 voucher. It’s like a never ending circle of shit but free food. Quote
Paid Members FLips Posted January 19, 2025 Paid Members Posted January 19, 2025 Had a Wendy’s yesterday. Best fries by a country mile, second best burger but I got a plain jane Single Dave burger so with added cheese or bacon or whatever next time it could be first. Fair prices too. Got a large fries which was more than enough to share, and a burger each for less than a tenner. Quote

Paid Members Carbomb Posted January 19, 2025 Paid Members Posted January 19, 2025 Had Wendy's for the first time a few weeks ago. Apart from being mystified why a burger would be called "Dave's", I quite liked what I got - that French Onion Triple Burger is lush. Quote

Absolute deviant behaviour. Quote

Agree about Macy’s, needs eating immediately or don’t bother. Quote
Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted January 20, 2025 Paid Members Posted January 20, 2025 I think it’s proper fast food. I’ve never had any fast food delivered that’s been near the quality of when you get in there, but every other kind of takeaway seems fine. Quote
Members SuperBacon Posted January 29, 2025 Members Posted January 29, 2025 Fancied a Chinese. Went to order. Our ones been closed down with a 2 star rating ? RIP JUMBO R2. You were excellent. Quote
MungoChutney Posted January 29, 2025 Posted January 29, 2025 Had a McDonald's at the weekend, the new BBQ ranch beef burger thingy. Disappointing overall but I have to say ever since the drive by the utterly woke lefties to lower calories and salt, McDonald's being of good quality is a fast fading memory. Everything from the Big Mac to the fries is bland and flavourless. Quote
Paid Members Lorne Malvo Posted January 29, 2025 Paid Members Posted January 29, 2025 First they came for the Big Macs, and I did not speak out... Quote
Members SuperBacon Posted January 29, 2025 Members Posted January 29, 2025 That reminds me, apparently the Shamrock Shake is coming to McDonald's in the UK in Feb. Morbid curiosity to try it. Philly Cheese Stack aka the best one is returning as well. Quote
