Used to be good value for money until they recently increased the prices. However, they are still cheaper then my local chicken and chip shop so I guess there’s that. Unusually, a lot of the meals they have on offer don’t include drinks.
The wings are crispy and tender. Chips are crunchy and starchy. Very typical for a chicken and chip shop. However, on two occasions when ordering chicken it was tough and burnt. On the second occasion, I decided to complain. The man behind the counter became defensive, saying only the “ bone was burnt”. After telling him multiple times I wouldn’t buy from them again he finally decided to give me a few wings as compensation.
Definitely a shame, as it can’t be all that difficult serving fresh chicken.
I’ve also tried the cheeseburger meal combo including a cheeseburger, three wings and chips for only £3.49. Sounds like a good deal. But unfortunately, the cheeseburger is much smaller, but most importantly tasted terrible. The salad was dry, and the Patti tasted like flavourless processed meat. I even put chilli on it to give it some flavour but to no avail.
The chicken wrap tasted like soggy chicken. I did eventually finish eating it after wrapping it up after only a few bites. But overall, I just felt like it was underwhelming and i wouldn’t order it again.
To conclude, Dixy is pretty much a below average chicken and chips shop. Good for chips and wings. Terrible at chicken piece’s and anything else. If you got loose change to spare it’s a good place to stop for wings and chips. But don’t bother experimenting with their menu or spending extra. A lot of their so called “meal deals” just aren’t worth it.
The guy behind the teller said there was a min spend of £5 for card.
I said "thats a lie because I spent £3.50 on a wrap 2 days ago"
He said "£3.50 is closer to £5 than £2.00"
To which i replied "They're both below £5!!"
He laughed and i walked out
Absolutely shocking customer service. Never returning again.
Negative-5***** For Poor Customer Service.
Also the buger meal was undercooked so it gave me a upset stomach so I will never buy from this dixy again.
Thanks for your service
