KFC Hackney - Mare Street

Another dirty food premises!
Why is it so hard to order over the counter this day. What happen to good customer service at the counter ? I feel like a second rate citizen ☹
My twister wrap was dry ! I think the wrap  was out of date. It just ripped apart 🤦‍♀️ My corn on the cob was not cook properly. Sack the cook !
If only they gave  the same attention to the cleanliness if their shop as they do their online order it would be great !
I won't be coming back!

They close at  2 or 3am

This has to be the worst KFC branch to exist in London. the chicken is so dry always! NO authentic KFC taste at all. Chicken still has feathers and fries are horrible.

If it wasn’t for the fact that it’s the brand KFC i’m pretty sure no one would go there

Not suprised to see 3.0 star.
Ordered a meal and waited for 25 minutes while no costomers inside and after all I ordered a sundae when food ready I was offered a drink instead Ice cream cuz they were out stock or something…..”””like sorry we don’t have chance can I give you gum instead “””

Absolutely pathetic i,ve been calling them from the last 15 20 min.i,ve placed an order through uber eats but last time they forgot to send me all my order. And when it came some of the items were missing.
This time today when i placed an order calling them from the last 15 20 min whenever they pick up the call they listen to me and just hanged up.
Thats tottaly rude and unprofessional.

Excellence is key to food restaurants and kfc masters that perfect customer service and an excellent selection of chicken to try j went with my friend once and it became our juicy chicken hot spot it is highly recommended so all should try it out

HFA has certified KFC's products in these stores, and the store environments, as halal. KFC has also ensured that the halal certified chicken would also meet the rigorous animal welfare standards employed in the UK, and has consulted leading animal welfare groups about this. KFC insists that all poultry is stunned before slaughter. HFA allows the use of a technique called 'stun-to-stun' - a pain free process that makes the animal insensible to pain and suffering. A verse is also recited from the Quran at the point of slaughter by an appropriate person and the poultry will not come into contact with non-halal meat at any point in the supply chain. KFC only buys high quality, Grade A, farm-assured chicken from trustworthy suppliers, and this will not change.

Palaette London Hackney

I can see why this place is so popular. Tried their pancakes and French toast, both were very tasty and the portions are huge, considering it's London. The Americano coffee was also very good. Recommended, worth the wait!

I would like to express my feedback about my experience I had when I was at that place last week on Thursday

Firstly I went to the restaurant in Hackney Central called palaette for a girlie lunch meal with my girlies 🥰 we all went there for the first time as soon as we went in the staff who gave us a table was very polite at first , we’ve been approached very kindly and respectfully offered us to sit down at our table that he gave us for us to sit

Secondly , he was kind enough to help one of my close friends which there was nothing wrong with that but his behaviour was nasty and vile didn’t expect someone like them to behave rudely towards their customers and the food we had was nice and delicious

The drinks were amazing just loved the way they decorated the drinks

After we was paying for the food and drinks we ordered the same staff gave us a incorrect  and managed to resolve the problem gave me and my friends a correct money and it was so nice of the manager apologised from his behalf

For the future reference teach your staff to be more respectful towards their customers and be mindful how they behave because we’ve noticed that his staff behaviour was unacceptable

Really lovely cafe.  Very friendly staff who aim to please.  Has a downstairs area and a small outside bit by front door.  Food was plentiful, well cooked and reasonably priced.  Choice of halal or not.  Great variety of both food and drinks.

This is the second time I’ve come and it’s just as good as the first time. We were served by Saru, he had a great personality and serving skills. Will definitely be back!

This is honestly one of the best brunch places I’ve ever been to. I have been here probably 5 times now and the portions are extremely generous, the customer service is top tier they’re always so respectful, kind and attentive. The food is even better everything tastes so fresh. I always recommend this place to people I know.

Delicious fried chicken concept by by born and bred Hackney resident

Lovely little discovery... diner feel  chicken place.. everything feeling super fresh and really well judged.. Lots of great flavours and perfect amount of heat. Coming back the next chance we get.  This time was mid evening snack before heading home after theatre visit Another night guessing it would be equally good for more relaxed longer date night.  Good work guys .

Loved the food here! Especially given that they do chicken thighs…! A rare sight for chicken shops.

We took takeaway so can’t comment much on the resto itself.

Staff seemed kind and service was good. Interesting stickers in the bathroom.

On food: the chicken is excellent. If you are sensitive towards blue cheese avoid the blue cheese flavour as it is really strong. Instead of it being a blue cheese sauce like most other places you actually get chunks of blue cheese!

Me and hubby came here while staying in Hackney for the weekend, yummy food, great service, good prices for the amount of food, plates were empty when we left! We had garlic & Parmesan chicken tenders, hot honey chicken burger, skin on fries with peri peri salt and chicken gravy!

Halfway through eating my food, I noticed a black foreign object in it — and my kids were eating it too. We feel sick. This clearly shows that the oil hasn’t been cleaned regularly or that something has fallen into the food. The food was also cold

Delicious burgers, got the hot honey with chimichurri smashed potatoes and the special one burger with chips.

Food was great but only critique I can give was as that our burgers came without the sides for 3min and as a chef myself whom worked from honest burgers, fallow, hawksmoor, Dorchester and now a headchef at a prominent contract catering sector I can safety say that the burgers should have stayed at the hot pass which was free of space and wait until the sides were ready to bring the order.

I may be a bit absurd on this matter but 30 years in the industry has taught me some habits which I believe any reputable restaurant should follow these basic guidelines, I understand there was only one front of house and she was amazing,  juggling takeaway, delivery and customer orders. I'm proud of this female front of house staff and she should be assisted in some form of manner.

I had to give the burgers back and entailed the staffs that this should stay at the hot lass ( heat lamp area) until sides are ready, another few min pass and the sides were ready.

Server apologised as one in the service industry is unfortunately droned over and totally understand the situation.

It was not very busy inside restaurant but the delivero orders were piling up.

The burgers were remade and everything came out hot as it should be, I am giving it 5 stars besides the slight hiccup.

Tipped the server as she did an amazing job with such little or no other help from the 4 people in the kitchen, 2 should float around front of house,bar and takeaways orders but what do I know, 2 successful business, an experience in many of renowned restaurants and now cater to over 1,300 people daily with only 9 chefs at hand.

I digress, and peck peck is a great chicken institution,  next time I go back there I will politely ask if all what over ordered come st the same time.

Delicious and spicy, would recommend and only 55quid including tip.

All our food is halal, we have a number of Muslim employees and we have a strong Muslim following. Peck Peck is also extremely thankful and supportive of our Muslim supporters.
