Fries & Guys

Been going past this place on the bus a few times, and noticed the imposing large signs of the store, so today I just thought I'd get off the bus just to give this place a try, especially since I love reviewing food businesses. The interior design is well done, you can tell the ambience is designed specially for the newer social media generation that are highly likely to upload their food pics. I ordered the quarter chicken & fries. The breast quarter is what I had, and I have to admit, the most inner part of the breast was well cooked and retained moist, didn't turn dry considering it's the most hardest part of chicken. The sauces were incredibly good particularly their extra hot sauce, sure it was mega spicy but full bodied flavoured well not just unnecessarily spicy. The had other sauces on the table, paticularly Heinz brand ketchup, mayonnaise & brown sauce, unlike other cheaper places that put cheap sauces in large plastic tubs, so you know what to expect when dipping food into the sauces.
I also had the Ferrero Rocher milkshake, was very good, as expected, made with ice-cream 🍦 from machine blended with milk and ferrero rocher chocolate. I'd give this place the full 5 stars because the chicken quarter I had was incredibly good, surpassed my expectations as I didn't think they'd be able to go against established places like Nando's.

Review update:
I went in again, and had the Big Guy burger, costing £9.99, and to be honest I feel this is very overpriced for what you get, two patties of beef and grilled chicken, but the beef patties aren't exactly quarter pounder sizes, and the chicken is more closer to a strip than an actual pattie. I feel this is underpriced, hence the 4 star review.

the food was absolutely amazing. the burger was made fresh and was juicy and of great portion. the wings also had a lot of flavour, not too spicy yet not flavourless. the chips where crispy and soft on the inside. ALSO THE SERVICE WAS AMAZING 10/10. very underrated.

I ordered burger meal , The burger was excellent and it’s very big. I like the double smash burger and cheese , it’s very juicy and tasty. It’s cozy place to chill. Definitely I will visit again and try the chicken burger next time.

Really great food, freshly made with amazing taste. Food was made in adequate time. Taste of the food was amazing. Really nice customer service. They also supply wipes. We ordered 2 x peri burgers with curly fries/sweet potato fries, 1/2 chicken. Great sauces, definitely will be back again.

Smash burger was really good, one of the best i've ever had, but funny enough, the fries were a bit basic, like just regular frozen chips, which is hilarious to me considering the name of the place.... Thought they would be skin-on or freshly made. If they started doing that, then it would be a sure 5/5. Definitely going back for their burgers though.
