Slim Chickens — Restaurant in Little Stanney

Disappointing Service for Frontline Worker

I can't speak to the food or atmosphere here, but the poor service left a bad taste. I was working at Cheshire Oaks, providing medical cover — a crucial role that requires me to be on call and available at a moment’s notice. I had heard good things about this place and thought I’d give it a try.

When I arrived, I politely asked the staff how long the wait would be. Given my job and the nature of my work, I hoped they might accommodate me with a quicker order. One staff member kindly checked with her manager to see if I could jump the queue for a quick order (not a large family meal or anything excessive), explaining my situation. The response? A firm "No" — no flexibility or understanding for someone working in a demanding role.

I get that there are rules, but when a business can't make reasonable accommodations for on-duty medical staff, it speaks volumes about their priorities. It's a shame because they lost a customer that day, and I'm not the only one. I doubt my fellow colleagues, who work similar demanding jobs, will be eager to support a business that isn’t willing to show a bit of compassion or flexibility.

A disappointing experience, and certainly not what I’d call...

Visited Slim Chickens today at the Cheshire Oaks Retail Village today for the first time after hearing good reviews about Slim Chickens. The first thing that caught my attention was the price of the food, I paid £13/£14 for the 3 tenders & 3 Wings meal & a Gravy. I'm not one to moan about price for the sake of it but when I start paying those prices I expect good quality food. If the quality justifies the price then I'm more than happy to pay any price! After receiving my food I gave it a taste, excited to try Slim Chickens for the first time! I was utterly disappointed to be honest with you, the tenders were single breaded, dry, unseasoned & slighlty over cooked (I assume this is due to being left in a holding cabinet for too long) the wings were hot & juicy but lacked any real taste or seasoning. The fries were decent with decent seasoning. The Gravy was excellent, full of flavour and i loved the selection of dips. My trip wasn't a complete disaster but felt incredibly underwhelming and my first thought as I started eating was that I wished I would of gone somewhere else before spending £17 on average food.

Service 8/10 Food (for the price)...

I recently had a meal at Slim's Chicken, and I must say that it left me feeling rather underwhelmed. While I was hoping for a satisfying dining experience, the reality fell short of my expectations.

The chicken I ordered turned out to be quite dry, which was disappointing, to say the least. The lack of juiciness in the chicken impacted the overall flavor and texture of the meal. Given the price point, I expected more in terms of quality.

In terms of value for money, I found the meal to be subpar. The dry chicken didn't justify the price, and I left the establishment feeling that I hadn't received the level of satisfaction that I had hoped for.

While the meal at Slim's Chicken was certainly not the worst I've had, it also wasn't a standout experience. The dryness of the chicken and the perceived lack of value left me feeling that the meal was fairly average.

In conclusion, my experience at Slim's Chicken was marked by dry chicken and a sense that the price didn't match the quality. While it wasn't a terrible experience, it wasn't one that would encourage me to return for...
