The fries can be a little bland, so it is best to go for the Cajun variety. Also, the burgers do get soggy very quickly, so unwrap them immediately and come prepared with a hose. That being said, they are super tasty and well worth the wait.

I adore five guys!…read more This one is a small one within the Lakeside food court, but it's very cosy and has the same sort of American diner theme as all the others I have visited (Birmingham, Kingston, Putney and Leicester Square). My visit to this one is the most memorable due to how hungry I was! My fiance and I arrived here for 2 bacon cheese burgers, cajun fries, with a regular drink. What I love about the burgers are the free toppings! I usually have mushrooms, grilled onions and ketchup. Calories galore! But who doesn't enjoy a huge greasy burger when they have been starved all day?! The drinks machines just fascinate me! You can pick a brand of drink, for example, Fanta. Then you can choose pretty much ANY flavour that you fancy. Which is brilliant! I love the strawberry Fanta, and the lime Coca-Cola. I can tell you now that I would not recommend the Orange flavoured Coca-Cola. It just tastes wrong. Now the only concern I have are the fries. I have tried the normal ones and the Cajun ones. They just aren't done right. The plain ones taste like raw potato that has been fried, which just aren't nice, however, should you get the Cajun ones, there is so much spice on them and at the bottom of the packet, it just makes you cringe. This does not stop me from getting them though if I need the stomach space filling. To summarise, as someone rightly said, who I don't remember. It is like a greasy filled heaven wrapped in foil, I may have even said it myself. Would recommend to the burger lovers out there, big shout out to you guys. Vegetarians/Vegans, just don't even bother.

Good service on offer and plenty of seating in store. Always clean and tidy. The parking in the…read morestreet is awful as there are never any spaces. The nearest carpark is miles away so it is best to buy to eat either on the premises or in the park nearby. The buckets available to buy are quite expensive and there are not to many deals availalbe to smaller families or couples. The best chicken I have ever tasted is the original colonels recipe chicken, the flavour and texture is fantasic. The food is always hot and crispy and fresh tasting. Good food although the location is far from the high street and the parking could be improved.

Worst meal ever, in fact, my experience started off badly with the very rude young lady who served…read moreme. She gave the impression that she considered me to be a 'nuisance' for wanting to order a take-away. She bluntly told me that there were no apple pies, then no beans and when I got home I realised there was obviously no coleslaw either as that was missing from my order. The chicken looked old and the chips looked like they were the last lot out the fryer but were cold. We had the bucket of 10 pieces and my husband had one piece and I threw the rest away. Certainly wont be going there again.

Fantastic sarnwich bar. Situated behind the main high street, well worth the trek to find it…read more The staff are great, especially the manager. It is a very social place, even though it is super tiny, and generally a small queue which is worked through quickly. They offer different types of breads and rolls and everthing is made up fresh infront of your eye, whatever combo you want! They also sell drinks, crisps, chocolate and hot drinks. Since stopping working in town I must admit I miss their prawn sarnies delicious.

But I always see this as a good sign -the place is obviously popular! Polite on the phone and food is fab and always hot when it arrives. We've never had a bad meal from here. My partner says their korma is the best ever. I usually have the lamb rogan, which is beautifully cooked and not too oily. Their keema naans are definitely the best in Chelmsford. :-)
