Despite what you might hear about Fat Yankees it's really not all that. Although the menu online looks amazing for an American-themed fast-food takeaway but in reality the food is not up to much considering the cost.
We ordered the pepperoni pizza (a favourite of mine) and it was probably the best part - if a little on the greasy side. I imagine it's hard to get that wrong.
The platter was cold and disappointing, it contained spicy tikka wings, nachos with cheese, mozzarella sticks, chicken dippers, potato wedges, thickly sliced chillies and - strangely enough - hash browns. While elements of this were acceptable in terms of taste, the fact it was cold rendered the platter almost inedible.
The cheese and bacon burger with chips definitely presents good value for money, a decent sized portion by today's usual standards. The burger is huge, perhaps a little too big with very little in the way of seasoning. My partner felt a little uncomfortable having eaten this particular part of the meal - the burger and bun just seemed to settle in the stomach. The chips were, surprisingly, good but were cold within five minutes of the food arriving and being unpackaged.
This is 100% a case of unnecessarily large portion sizes being provided at the expense of good quality food. If you prefer quantity over quality, then this is the right place to eat. read more
