Big Sam's

This is fairly local to me and so when I fancy a cheeky cheap takeaway, this is one of a few places I would be happy to go back to.

As you might expect from a takeaway restaurant, they sell an excellent range of takeaway foods; fish, chips, southern fried chicken, burgers, pizzas, kebab... Etc.

The food is always prepared freshly and priced competitively (on promotional days, it's insanely competitive!) and I've never had a bad meal from here.

The staff are always friendly, polite and efficiently quick. As with a lot of these kinds of places, turnover of staff is frequent, but again, every time I've been here, they've been spot on.

Coming back to an earlier point, promotional deals:

Some of the deals they offer are proper nuts! For example, they offer buy one get one free on pizza at selected times. Not that extreme you may say but on a Tuesday, they offer an extra one which means you buy one pizza and then get TWO for free...

Wait. What? I'm paying for one and you'll give me three?! Are you sure?! What was that?! Eh?! I had to ask the young lady serving me several times to make sure she wasn't going to get herself sacked, but yes, get your timing right and some of the meal deals they offer are outstanding and truly excellent value for money.

In summary, a great little takeaway place that offers good food at a fair price. 👍

I overheard an older lady managing two younger employees (not sure if this lady was the manager or not) and speaking to them with unappreciation and disrespect. Made me feel a little uncomfortable. Obviously I don't know the situation, but a little bit of kindness goes a long way, and these two girls were more than happy to serve and help me. Other than that food was okay.

This shop states that they close at 11pm, I turned up at 10pm and I was met with lady who stated that all the machinery was turned off for the day (so that meant no fish & chips, no pizza etc) - just buy whatever is left in the counter. Why advertise that you're open till 11pm when your staff are so keen to shut up shop at 10pm? Awful experience.

Not first time had bad experience with Sams. Just quick fix Curry sauce and chips. You would think they could get that right. Irish curry like water. Chips were nice but £1.00 more expensive than Scrumps in Talbot Green. That is ridiculous. I foned to advise them as i didnt want anybody else to have curried water! Offered free one when next there. No thanks. SCRUMPS everytime now freshly cooked, lovely staff and not ripped off.

All through the pandemic Big Sam's provided the dept with amazing quality food with no charge just out of pure kindness, we will always be thankful for the generosity shown, amazing food, amazing customer service would highly recommend, stacey.

Ordered on just eat and order did not arrive at all, despite phoning twice to confirm....I would definitely not recommend

Claims to be open until 10 but all the machinery switched off at half 9, leaving a choice of 4 items to choose from

Drove from aberdare to get the best kebab that I know of and not selling kebabs. Thank you very much
