I would avoid at all costs. While the food may be ok (once you get served anyway) the service and staff alone would put any sane person off. After waiting for about ten mins to get served at a quiet point on numerous occasions i regularly find myself waiting for at LEAST 20 minutes to receive an order of usually just two items. The staff are rather unfriendly and impolite and can be seen speaking amongst themselves before bothering to acknowledge the queue that has gathered. This would be mildly understandable if the staff comprised of just teenagers but I have witnessed individuals over 30/40 years old being just as rude. I won't even bother to discuss my few encounters I've had with them over the phonea disgrace to say the least. The only individuals I know who use them only do so for convenience, it appears that most prefer to use the other local chip shop which is a quick drive away. If they could go back to the standards of about two years ago they would be fine, but think they need to review their current staff and procedures to achieve this! read more

Don't go near it..The female who cooks at the fryer is filthy looking. Whilst I was waiting on food the pizza cook threw a burnt fish right across the shop to the fish fryer which he got from a bucket. The fish fryer was pinching one of the young boys bottoms and then moving foods around with her hands. One other staff member had a receipt in her mouth for someone's carryout meal and then stapled it to the bag it was being delivered in. There is only a couple of staff who seemed decent enough, the rest are foul mouthed immature and should not be working in any establishment that handles food. Now I am going to report them to the food standards. read more

They do not stock up the hot plate so you often have to wait but you know it is going to be freshly cooked. They have a good range of pizza, these have a thin crust which I prefer. Some of the toppings are not strictly traditional, maybe for the more adventurous. My wife usually has the flame grilled burger which she raves about. Worth a visit.

We'll never know, because I won't waste any more time trying.

I have no idea why people come and talk about their bad experience about this shop! As a regular customer for this shop, I have been ordering for almost a year now and always have been happy with the food and service. I know the owner very well and he is a very nice gentleman so really can't understand other complains about this shop. They have very nice fish and chips and the price is always fair! Will continue ordering from this shop and defo recommend it! read more

Based on what I had heard about this wee shop, I was avoiding it but when my fav shop was closed and domino's said they gonna deliver around 45 min later (due to lack of driver), I decided to give a try and order pizza from La Capanna! was hungry and they sent it in only 25 mins, delivery guy was very nice and smiling, well, pizza was unbelievably fresh and tasty! Would continue ordering from this takeaway surely read more

This is THE best chippy in livingston have used it for years and will continue to do so. I think the guy who wrote the only bad review must be in a different takeaway coz thats not the la capana I know, fast food, fast staff, always friendly and polite, nice delivery guys and the bosses are ALWAYS there. There is no ignoring of customers or bad service at that place and the food is top notch! read more

First review is highly inaccurate, shop is always busy at weekends, staff are speedy and work hard, they are not there to chat. Food is always served hot and very rarely are mistakes are made. Comprehensive menu of pizza, pasta, kebabs, chip shop food and alcohol. Highly recommended and five stars read more

This wee takeaway is located in Livingston's main streets and serves the best quality fish and chips! Usually their delivery is on time but on weekends that shop is crowded they might have a 5-10 minutes delay. If you want to try a good quality and fresh fish and chips, this shop is a good option! read more
