Had a Deliveroo of this and it was really great. Lemon rice, lamb curry, paneer, Masala chips (yum!) and nice pakora. Thumbs up!

Big Slice Pizza Co at Fika
Found these guys looking for garlic pizza on Deliveroo. I actually want to try their normal pizzas, because they’re obviously very good at it – really great light dough, pecorino cheese in my case, totally smashed it. Points down only because I could hardly taste the garlic in my garlic pizza despite ordering extra!
Verdict: Ok

Magic Wok
Look, being a Chinese takeaway is rough, there’s loads of good ones. This isn’t one of them, despite sponsoring on Deliveroo.
Verdict: Don’t go

Good Friends
A Chinese renowned for authentic Chinese food. Had some delivery and it was pretty good, certainly very good factoring in the price.
Verdict: Awesome
Location: 24-25 Preston Street
SoBe Burger
It’s a burger place and it’s fine. The chicken strips were also fine. The cajun seasoning on the chips was pretty good. Just not better than the existing good burger joints.
Verdict: Ok

Hove Tandoori
Gave these guys a try as they popped a menu through our door. Bad idea. First issue, got pinged that order was on the way and it took ages – I can only assume they did several deliveries in one go, which meant the food was cold. Soggy bhaji which I might chalk up to that. But chicken passanda was gritty, chicken was dry and chewy. Won’t do these guys again.
Verdict: Don’t go

Bluegrass BBQ at New Unity
Had intended to go to the restaurant but babysitter cancelled so got Deliveroo. It’s a little spendy, but goodness me the meat is INCREDIBLE. I think the fries would be ok too but they’d clearly sat there before delivery. I want to go to the resto badly!
Edit: Have now been into the New Unity and had the food, and it was really great, and I think more affordable than over takeaway! Big benefit of eating in is you get a whole host of BBQ and hot sauces which makes a big difference too.
Verdict: Awesome (just don’t get fries delivered)
Location: 52-53 London Road
Perfect Pizza Company
Had a Just Eat but must remember to go direct next time for free delivery. Short story really, they do cheese and garlic pizzas, and they are awesome.
Verdict: Awesome

Magic Wok
Had an awesome chicken fried rice, the end.

Chicken Dudes
Chicken takeaway, a tough one to decide actually – it was almost awesome. So chicken strips were amazing – crunchy, a bit of spice. Yum. Spicy chips were kind of good? A little soggy but nice to have something different. Then the cheesy garlic pizza bread was just ok. So ultimately I’m not desperate to have another, but I did enjoy it.
Verdict: Ok
