"I believe this KFC is so bad, it must be the work of the devil. It's hard to believe it's not, right? Well, let me tell you, after eating it, I definitely feel like I'm in hell within twenty minutes."

"The Olive Branch has become a favourite and we returned for my birthday lunch and a visit to the Yew Tree Avenue. We ate outside in the sunshine in one of their uniquely decorated gazebos, although the pub is lovely and full of character. Before...I go any further, I write this review because I know that they take on board our comments and strive to get better and better. There was a big lunch party in the barn, so parking was tight and we were worried about noise. We needn’t have worried as the hubbub subsided once their food was served. We ate from their “Lunch for Less” menu. Heritage tomato gazpacho with smoked creme fraiche and wild garlic and I had the pub made black pudding with apple, curried pickled onion, egg yolk and crispy pork. Both delicious although I’d have liked more of the pickle and the crispy pork. Decent size portions none the less. We both had the pan fried sea bass with cockles and prawn pearl barley in a shellfish bisque with sea vegetables, lemon and fennel. We were given a spoon for the “soup” but it was all absorbed by the pearl barley. We were expecting it in a little cup on the side... so why the spoon? Unfortunately, the sea bass was only one fillet cut between us. Not good enough when mains are over £18. Maybe they were running low, because of the big lunch in the barn? Having said that, the skin was deliciously crisp and melt in the mouth and the flavours were superb. We don’t tend to go for meals that are all protein and carbs, so it would have made our day if the sea vegetables and fennel had been much more evident or we’d been asked if we’d like other a salad on the side. As for asking, no one came back to ask if everything was alright... I had asked for the beer list to order another with the main, but we had finished it before anyone came back... may be because of the big lunch in the barn??? Next time we’ll book a different day if there’s a big lunch in the barn! The deserts were every bit as good as you’d expect. Banana pannacotta, dark chocolate mousse, hazelnut ice and Sticky toffee pudding, miso butterscotch and Guinness ice cream. I’d have been happy with just the Guinness ice cream! The birthday celebration was marked with petit fours for both of us, on a platter iced with Happy Birthday. A nice touch, thank you. A small deduction was made by us for the standard of service, which we explained, and were thanked. Hopefully on our next visit, these inconsistencies will be rectified. The Olive Branch can excel... and they do listen."

"Went to kfc on high street in shop to take away, for a quick easy dinner for myself and friend. Staff were completely incompetent, asked for large meals and repeated myself multiple times and received smalls and order was wrong. Staff interrupted me whilst trying to order and refused to change my food as it was wrong. I ordered a krushem shake and it was only filled 3/4 of the way and did not receive a straw for my other drink. Kfc has really gone downhill, flavors and quality of food is awful. Will not be going there again."

"There were only three customers in there, but it still took them over 20 minutes to finish my order! They certainly weren't rushing either! This is certainly the worst KFC in Basildon. If you have the time, make your way to either Pitsea KFC (takes them less than five minutes, even when they're busy) or KFC Mayflower. Someone needs to train the staff up in KFC Laindon. They don't seem to care. They just keep plodding on at their normal slower than slow pace even though the orders are stacking up!"

"I ordered 1 wrap of the day, 1 apple and black currant drink, and 2 hot wings through the drive-thru at the restaurant. However, I was incorrectly charged for a meal that I did not order, which cost 60p more. When I returned to the restaurant, the staff member initially argued that the meal deal was cheaper. After speaking with the supervisor, I was refunded the extra 60p. The staff member claimed she thought the meal was cheaper, but later admitted she may have misheard me. No apologies were given for the attempt to upsell me on a more expensive meal that I did not request. The crew working between 12-1pm on June 1, 2023, lacked integrity and need a moral compass to guide them in the right direction."

"This restaurant has a fantastic location with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating options. The service was excellent, although there was a small issue with the app offer availability. The menu offers a wide range of options for both takeout and dining in, with lunch being a popular choice. The price per person ranges from £1-£10. The food was rated a 4 out of 5, while the service and atmosphere both received a perfect score of 5. Vegetarians will be happy to know that there is a large selection of vegetarian dishes available, and they come highly recommended."

"The restaurant has good food, quick service, and is always bustling with customers. The place is clean and offers a typical menu. They are open until 2am, as far as I know."

"The food is extremely poor for the price. I ordered a starter of prawns and chorizo for £9.95. This was served in its entirety on a piece of shop bought small brown bread. There was nothing which particularly stood out with the dish at all. For the main, I had a Himalayan Lamb curry. This was £25. The lamb curry itself was very nice extremely tender. This was served however with a small microwaved veg portion, and plain uncle bens or similar, microwaved rice. For £25, serving a curry with microwaved rice is shocking. My partner had chicken supreme, which was nothing more than a small chicken leg with a side of risotto and cost £18. All together the bill was £75 for a really poor quality meal. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone, and it’s probably the worst meal I’ve ever had considering value. On a side note, the waiting staff were extremely attentive this isn’t a reflection on them at all. Similarly the decor in the place is fantastic which gives the feel that the food is going to be much better than it actually is. James"

"Visited for the first time here yesterday and was immediately impressed with the excellent customer service . We turned up 10 mins before opening, as a large group of 9 kids and 7 adults without booking and was so impressed that they opened the doors early for us as it was so cold waiting outside (without us asking) All the kids loved the big choice of reasonably priced waffles, crepes and flavoured ice creams . Have been to Creams several times too but Twists is definately on par food and staff wise , if not better . Will definately be returning soon to Twists ...Thanku "

"Ordered over the app and went to collect my order, Delivery bikes and riders all over the front of the restaurant and 2 impatient bike riders inside waiting for their orders. Got my order pretty quick to be fair but when i got home there...were once again missing items. This is the third time in a row that my wife has wanted a KFC and i keep trying to put her off because of the mess Liscard KFC make of the orders. I am not prepared to waste any more money in that establishment as i think i am about £7 out of pocket because they don't check things and then stick and checked sticker over the bag. The staff are to busy getting the deliveries sorted instead of sorting customers in the restaurant. An ABSOLUTE SHAMBLES AS USUAL FROM THE WORST KFC I HAVE BEEN TO. Go to McDonalds or Burger king if you want the food you have ordered as they know how to do things right."

"The staff at this restaurant is lovely and provides excellent service. I tried the spicy cow sandwich and it was amazing! This was my first time here, but I am certain it won't be my last. The menu mainly consists of sandwiches and baked goods, but they also offer locally brewed coffee and delicious cakes and cookies. The ambiance of the restaurant was great with beautiful music playing in the background to create a relaxing atmosphere. It seemed like a popular spot for people on their lunch breaks. I really enjoyed my experience here!"

"booked 2 months in advance as a birthday contract marokko is one of our favorite places on the earth (because it visited 4 or 5 times between us), Moroccan cuisine absolutely up there as one of the best kitchen in the world. This restaurant had incredible...Overviews so that everything made sense. the dining room seemed pretty dirty and sterile not much in the way of soft furniture, wall decoration or other small extras to give a North African feeling, but everyone was very welcoming. starter (bastilla and Filo packages) were both incredibly blasphemy and almost tasteless, without the subtle aromen one would expect. the mains were as inspiring. a selection of vegetarian and seafood were all sufficient, but not very inspiring. the al fassia couscous (not served by a tagin, but gilded) was without asking the worst cousin pornstar I had ever had in a special restaurant that was as surprising as it was disappointing. while the vegetables should be slowly cooked and soft, they were boiled to a mosque. the Merguez sausages and (incredible) even the chicken had both parts that were hard and crusty similar when eating the morning in a microwave is heated too long. and the lamb was soft, but it was lacking in any taste. I left the whole court. the owner/manager kindly took off the cousin from the bill, but the evening was one of the great expectations and bitter disappointment."

"This has been the worst experience I've had at a restaurant. I truly wish I could get a refund. It was extremely noisy, chaotic, and just overall terrible. The waitstaff seemed confused about which tables they were responsible for. The patrons were so loud that it visibly disrupted everyone else, and no one addressed the issue. The food was poorly seasoned and prepared, with minuscule portions. I strongly advise against dining here. It is a dreadful restaurant in a hotel."
