Convenient, quick-service, flame-grilled Peri Peri chicken

@halalfoodguy's review of Five Lads Leyton on Instagram

Five Lads

I am surprised by some of the comments to be fair. I really like this place, the staff are great (admittedly the photos shows one of the quiet times that I went, so I could take good pics).

The platter is REALLY GOOD, the sauce on it is lovely. The burgers, chicken where freshly prepared, so the chicken was tender.

The gentleman on the counter even accommodated my drinks request, as I don't do soft drinks (coke/pepsi) I told him.

Family friendly too and lots of seating options, that's why we like it.

Nice design but dusty inside, specially the light bulbs.
Many condiments available on each table.
Cashier was tired or upset.
Too much sauce on chicken, felt like was on purpose to hide the rare grill.
Chips big and soft.
Wouldn't recommend to take Single Platter.

Customer service was good. Grilled chicken and wings were tasty. Petty of Lamb burger and Beef burgers were not that juicy and bit dry. Very little bit of sauce inside the burger so it's give you dry taste. Also very limited choice of sauses only ketchup, normal mayonnaise and chilli sauce. Restaurant was clean and nice atmosphere.

Restaurant looks nice, but food was below average. Extremely creamy peri sauce (i prefer no creaminess on my chicken) and the chicken felt a bit undercooked, which didn't sit right. My stomach has been in agony after eating this mediocre meal.

Five Lads never disappoints, it's been so long since I was there. Been looking forward to it for sooo long. Went for the Loaded Box my options as always are HOT, sides Peri peri fries with Diet Coke. Loved it. Popped in on a very late evening at 10pm, the guys close shop at 11pm so just enough time. HOT was HOT man, I was in tears with my nose running - that's my idea of a really good meal just so long as no-one is watching :) Think I'll go fir the Medium flavour next time to make it just that more enjoyable. If you havent been for a while, like me go down & check it out - you'll love it!! Sorry no photos was too good to hang about ;)
