***********DISCLAIMER**************** They haven't…read moreofficially opened yet, they open on the 5th of November. The were having a pre-opening training day with a set menu so... THIS REVIEW IS OF THE QUALITY OF FOOD ALONE!!! I am actually from western NY, within 50 miles of where Buffalo Wings became famous and every western New Yorker knows a good chicken wing and I have only ever found one place in the UK with good enough wings for them to remind me if home... But now I've found another!!! I've been seeing this business prepare for opening over the last few wings and when I realised it was an American Wing Restaurant I was so excited as it's right on my way home! The chicken wings were the right size, had the right crisp and succulence and the buffalo bliss sauce was reminiscent of the Anchor Bar(birthplace of buffalo wings) itself. I was given 5 wings and wedges in what I believe will be one of the menu items. It didn't come with Bleu cheese as standard (which might have been for the pre-opening event..idk) , but I didn't ask for it so I will make sure to do so next time. It did come with coleslaw, though...which I didn't really see the point of, lol! Oh yeah hey have burgers and per menu items, I'll unlikely be trying these soon as wings are now so close to home. Anyway, the opening is on the 5th of November and there is 20% off so I will most certainly be there to get some good wings again.., eventually when they are fully trained, I will update this on service too!

Really nice, healthy food. Used them a few times for delivery and was impressed every time…read more They have their own webiste for orders, or you can phone in. The food is always hot and tasty and the salads nice and fresh. Highly recommended as a healthy take-away/delivery option to feed a family! We especially love their sweet potato chips, which I think are unique to their menu. I'm a huge fan of Nandos, but I think Gourmet Chicken in Maidenhead beats them :)

Nice place. Delicious wings and the location is very centric. Staff is friendly and kind.read more

I was happy to try Wing Stop in London. I've eaten at a bazillion in the US…read more The service was actually pretty fast. They were very busy and they just kept the food moving! That was great because I was starving. There's a lot of seating inside, mostly upstairs. It seemed they were actively keeping the place very clean. A couple things that stood out to me... The folks bringing food to the tables weren't the friendliest. Not quite rude, but not quite friendly. The food itself was not quite the size we're used to here. I don't take anything away from them for that; it's just something to be aware of. SMS to be fair, I've had smaller portions here in the US (but almost never). Food was OK. Place was clean. People I dealt with couldn't much care if you were there or not. Smile once in a while

During a pretty long visit to England, my husband and I had had enough fish and chips, which we…read morelove, and looked for something different one night. We decided to try Smokeworks.

Unique way to get service, have to go to see and experience, kids had fun with it. Service was quick and food was hot. From someone who has years of experience with ribs they did a good job.

I wish i'd tried out this restaurant sooner as i'm often in Hemel town centre around lunchtimes when i'm peckish i'll definately be heading back in the furture. The setting was nice, clean and comfortable, the staff were welcoming and friendly. Ultimately this place just serves chicken dishes, but they still offer a lot of variety. It's all about the spice here you can choose the level of spicyness your food has with four options of marinade/sauce, one of which is mild enough if you're not in to hot food. At the other end of the scale is REALLY hot. Despite the emphasis on the spices, the flavour of my food was not compromised. The soft drinks are refillable, which is always good and vital here as I had to knock back about 5 pepsi's to cope with the spicy food i'd ordered! It wasn't the cheapest meal I could settle for in Hemel town centre, but it's still great value.

Absolutely absurd I ordered the jerk chicken and was raw and veiny I advise DO NOT GO HEREread more

Fun restaurant. Very buzzy at night, more mellow during the day…read more The menu is made up of all sorts of tapas style food from all ocer the world, and steaks. Hummus, meatballs, shrimp, tempura are examples of 20 or so choices. You can order any number of dishes, each od which is large snack size. We ordered meatballs, vegetable tempura, honey spiced chicken wings, olives and spice rubbed chips. Each dish was as tasty as the other. Service was wonderful, immediate and very friendly. But we went in at 2pm on Saturday, so the place was very quiet, which meant the staff were not busy at the time. Nice food, fun and lovely service. Reasonable price (£30 for the meal, which included one large glass of wine). Highly recommend.

We came here on a Sunday lunchtime in Feb 2010. Although they did a traditional sunday roast…read moredinner, the real attraction was the tapas-style menu of modern English/European dishes. Between 4 of us we ordered 14 dishes including roast tomatoes with halloumi, chorizo with goats cheese, lambs kidney toasts, cider braised pigs cheeks, plaice goujons with lemon mayo, mexican wrap, roasted vegetable kebabs. Prices range from £2.75 to £3.95 per dish and everything was well-cooked and very tasty. It's a great concept and if you've ever read a menu and wanted more than 1 thing on it or just wanted a whole bunch of starters, - you'll love this.

Really great chicken wings! We had the Gangnam and the buffalo wings with the furious fries to…read moreshare. The Gangnam wings had a really nice flavour however I found them a little sweet to have lots of them (you get 8 wings In a portion). For me, I could have had a little sourness in the sauce with the sweetness but they were still nice! The buffalo wings come with blue cheese on top but we had them without as we don't like blue cheese and they were great! Full of flavour and nice and spicy. The furious fries are cooked with buffalo sauce and come with feta and chilli. We had without the feta however we could have had them without the chillis as the fries themselves were really tasty! The restaurant was really accommodating despite our fussiness which is always good to see! The food was great and we need to go back to try the other wing flavours!

This place has come up a number of times on Time Out magazine and finally decided to go for chicken…read moreinstead of the several south asian restaurants in the area. We got there quite early, around 6pm, and first thing you notice are stools all along the fire spit to watch your chicken cook. If you prefer a less entertaining view, there are tables on the back side of the restaurant. Sometimes it is best to have a simple menu. Chicken, a few sides, dessert and drinks. For 2 people, a whole chicken is just about right. They offer you two sauces, hot and some smokey sauce and to be honest the chicken is so well seasoned I didn't really need any of the sauces. It was really damn good chicken. We ordered a side of fries to share - they were quite good when they're hot. There were a lot of small pieces towards the end you don't even bother with. They were okay. As we were sitting at the bar, I saw them prepare the apple pie and luckily I had room for dessert. They brought us nearly a quarter slice of the pie with two scoops of ice cream! It was really, really good.. could've made it a meal in itself.

So today when we were considering where to eat for lunch we decided to finally try it out. BEST DECISION. My boyfriend and I shared a half chicken, along with the butter lettuce and avocado salad, corn on the cob, and a slice of apple pie. All the food was incredible!! Both of us had plenty to eat and weren't so full we felt sick. As if the food wasn't enough to convince us to want to come back again, the atmosphere was great. The decor is rustic and simple. The kitchen is open and surrounded by a bar where you can watch the chefs work (we opted to sit there and observe...it was mesmerizing). If you are a larger party there are bigger tables in the back too. And their staff were so friendly and conversational. Will definitely be going back!
