Well presented food all wrapped with care and name of business on wrapping and handy carry bag. On arrival 1 lady wearing a half covered mask for some stupid reason scared of catching something from customers not from touching cash with bare hands or lack of washing if so worried half masked up should not be there. The chips are all 3cm or less that's not proper chips. The potato scallop was that oily the hungry kids would not even touch them. It shows awards on arrival but I'd suggest go elsewhere.. The wet spot is the oil still coming out of the scallop.

Pretty good burgers with decent amount of filling, although the bun was a little bit stale. Meat could have been cooked a little longer too. Chips were a bit average, not crunchy enough for me and probably not drained long enough as they were a bit too greasy. Good selection of items on the menu, enough to satisfy most people. Didn't have to wait too long for my order, and the staff were friendly enough. I'd try it again, but I'd like my chips cooked a bit longer. I'll say so next time

I bought the $17 fish and chips and choose chicken salt when asked. Tasted like regular salt and there was far too much of it. Not bad overall but the there wasn't many chips.
