Tasty Bites — Restaurant in South Norfolk

Zero-star review. But Google forces you to give one.

My review is based on three experiences ordering from Tasty Bites. The first time, the cod we ordered was full of bones, with no care taken to remove the small pin bones that could cause someone to choke. Fortunately, no one choked. We waited 45 minutes for our order of two cod and chips and one chicken burger meal..

Second was the same chicken burger order. Tasty Bites called to say they were out of chicken, so I switched to the cheeseburger option as I can understand suppliers can let you down...even if Tesco Express is across the road. The order took an hour and a half to arrive - strike two.

Strike three. I ordered a chicken burger meal with an extra chicken burger. After waiting an hour and a half, I called to inquire about my order and was told, "It is being wrapped now. It takes time as it is fresh and homemade." Fair enough. "It is 10-15 minutes away," they said. Okay, a chance to redeem yourself. The food arrived, but there was no drink with the meal. The chicken was dry and had clearly been sitting under the heat lamps, dying, for the entire time, even after my call. It was warm but not hot at all, and the chips were horrible. On a Tuesday night, I placed the order at 18:03 and received it at 20:28—nearly a two and a half hour wait. The delivery driver did not apologize or offer any explanation. He was the grumpiest person I've ever encountered and clearly did not want to be out making deliveries. I will not be ordering from you again. I will go back to ordering from Enjoy Eat Pizza in Cringleford. At least they deliver in 45 minutes, even when they are busy, and their food is fresher and hotter when it arrives...

So, this was unexpected, I've tried every takeaway in wymondham, and except woodbines for chips, and golden blossom for Chinese, everywhere has been a disappointment, every pizza from every pizza shop has went in the bin, no lie, they had no flavour and tasted wrong, except dominos, which isn't great, but the best to offer.

So when I received the menu, I thought I'd give them a go, but wasn't expecting to be happy, oh how wrong I was.

I went for pizza, chips, and curry.

The pizza, whilst not amazing, was lovely, plenty flavour, cooked right, good texture, and plenty mozzarella. The chips, though not as good as woodbines, were perfect, and the large portion was bigger than expected. The curry, proper Chinese style chip shop curry, tasted amazing.

For someone who's not been able to have takeaway unless they travel back north, I'm very happy that menu came through my door, definitely worth a try.

And came in 40 minutes.

Thanks to the...

We were driving past in the early evening and the wife demanded we stop for chips and mushy peas. In I went, placed my order... 35 minutes I had to wait. For chips in a chip shop! There were only 2 other people in there with me.

35 minutes for chips and mushy peas, in a place whose sole purpose is to have chips ready for customers.

I'll always give people the benefit of the doubt, so a different night I 'phoned up and ordered ahead, and was told it would be ready to collect in half an hour. I turn up 30 minutes later, the guy looks like he's caught in the headlights, like it's completely unexpected that someone should be walking in and expecting to buy food, looks at my order on the board... and then I wait another 30 minutes for them to get my 2x fish and chips...
