Reviews
"Markets itself as “the best fried chicken in New Zealand.” It’s not. It was pretty good though (the fries less so) and the friendly service almost made up for the price and long wait time. I enjoyed it (the aioli sauce carried) but I don’t think I’ll be back."
"I usually don't write bad reviews, but let me explain what happened. Firstly, the lady at the counter gave my order of wings to someone else, even though my order buzzer was lit up. Then she assured me that my order wouldn't take much time. However, when they finally gave me an order, it turned out to be the wrong one that I didn't even place. The price I paid was more than the order they gave me The only mistake I made was not checking the order before taking it. Based on my experience, I wouldn't recommend this place because of how they treated me. If possible, I suggest avoiding it."
"This is a review for empires other store EMPIRE BURGER BAR. Food ordered via Uber eats, great service from the driver, but that's where it stops. Burger was cold and bun very stale and crumbled to bits. First bite revealed a cold and stewed texture patty, not a smash buregr or even close. On inspection it was raw all the way through and inedible. Tried to contact via their Instagram page and through the empire chicken Page. No response. Uber eats came back to me the next day as it was a FOOD SAFETY ISSUE. And was refunded by Uber Not empire. Was left with no food for the night as it was too late to order anything else suitable and having spent money on food that was borderline dangerous, I wasn't prepared to spend more. Do yourself a favor and spend your hard earned elsewhere."
"Food was tasty and prices aren't too bad. Got the wings which had a nice crispy coating that went everywhere. You get a small portion of sauce, which should be more for the amount of wings you get. They were also full of oil and needed draining a bit more."
"Great place! I've been here a number of times and can safely say that I've tried this on several occasions. My favourite order is the wings. The staff are always friendly and if something were to go wrong then they can work it out and no worries. Highly recommend and I make sure to visit whenever I am in Christchurch."
