    Wanted to try the new alternative to KFC in town since I noticed it had opened. I opted to collect as I live locally. The menu is pretty good with a large range of options of fried chicken as well lad peri chicken. I went for the meal deal for 2 (4 x chicken 6 X hot wings 2 X gravy and 2 X drinks) for £16.99. Not that cheap compared to The Colonels original recipe being served up just around the corner. Wanted to give it a try though. I was served very quickly as it was pretty quiet (Friday 7.30pm). The food took a while to come out as I think they had to prepare the chips. No dramas. I'd prefer fresh chips that are piping hot over ones that are cold by the time you get in your front door. Once home I delved in as I was Hank Marvin. This is where it went a bit south. The chicken pieces looked delicious and not shy on size. My only issue was it appears to have been sitting on the hot plate for a while after sinking my teeth in. Dry and quite salty. Luckily the gravy came into play. Not helping on the salt issue, it did add some well deserved moisture to the main event. In fact, the gravy was very nice. I struggled to finish both chicken pieces as the sodium levels were a tad over powering. On to the hot wings. These were actually ok. Completely different to the Colonels version but pretty decent in all. Not amazingly spicy but a few drops of the hot sauce they'd put in with them soon gave them the bite they deserved. The chips were good too. Coupled with the gravy offering they were a match made in heaven. In all, it was ok. It's still new so might need a bit longer to settle down and get where it needs to be. A shame the chicken seasoning was so salty as I was hoping for an alternative to KFC in the town centre. I'll try them again in a few weeks to see if it's any better or whether it's just the way their chicken is. I'll also try their peri chicken too as it looks delicious on the menu. I'll adjust the review accordingly. I really hope, like any new business, this place does well. It's in a prime but competitive location with Maccys, Fireaway Pizza and Taco Bell calling themselves neighbours and The Colonel tucked away around the corner. Best of luck guys.
