Miss Millie’s Fried Chicken

I can’t speak for the food on collection. However my experience with their delivery was dire…
After an hour wait from order I was greeted by a polite driver, who then handed me a wet plastic bag and a brown bag that was almost falling apart. I asked about my drink and despite paying for a bottle, I was given a can… The driver had to refund me the difference.
The chicken was dry, the chips were soggy. I tolerated it as it was probably better than a kebab. However I will not be ordering from this particular shop again…

Miss Millie’s has been sitting on my ‘to review’ list for ages, but if I’m honest I’ve been a little embarrassed. It’s not big. It’s not clever and it certainly isn’t cool! But it does hit the spot between 11pm-​3am.
It’s dirty, greasy chicken in a microwaved wrap or slightly stale bun. The sweet corn is average and the gravy is thicker than Glastonbury mud — and doesn’t taste much different!
If drunk Thom didn’t love Miss Millie’s so much, they’d have 2 less stars. But he does! Oh he does!

Yuck, yuck, yuck!
I have never been miss Millie’s biggest fan but there’s the odd occasion that I eat it after being a little tiddly and enjoy it.
Last night I was left thoroughly disappointed with my food– the chips weren’t cooked, the chicken was so dry it was inedible and the gravy was burnt and so thick I could hold it upside down and not a drop left the pot.
It’s safe to say I will never be going back. Staff were miserable and rude and looked pretty grubby and unhygienic.

SO disappointed here !
After a night out this is not what I had in Mind, grumpy staff, undercooked chips, gravy that was ridiculously thick (you could hold the pot up side down and it wouldn’t move) and the chicken strips, well no complaints on them.
I have always been a fan but this has tipped me over the edge, I may never take a visit back to not only this miss Millie’s but any throughout Bristol !
A huge disappointment !

Miss Millie’s is one of those places that’s somewhere between a kebab shop and something like McDonald’s. I am not a fan of these kind of places and am not a lover of greasy food, which pretty much sums the place up, however I am aware that Miss Millie’s does tend to be very popular with people who aren’t so concerned about what they’re eating!
One thing this place doesn’t fail on is value, as it is ridiculously cheap, and I guess this is one of the main attractions. The fact you can get a whole meal for £4 including a drink makes it a real hit with certain students. I will give it the benefit of the doubt in that I would probably prefer to eat here than a late night kebaby, but it’s not my kind of place…

Located about halfway along Gloucester Road, this KFC-​wannabe is ideal for a quick snack during the day (I often find myself here on a Saturday afternoon after hunting down records), or alternatively when you’ve forgotten to eat before heading out on the obligatory Friday night trousering session after work. They’re open until some ridiculous hour, like three or four, too, so the temptation to get some chicken wrapped in their delicious spicy batter is often too much to resist. Prices aren’t bad, either, especially considering that you do get some decent meat here, rather than the somewhat suspect ‘chicken’ available at similar joints in the area.

This is the South West’s very own version of Kentucky Fried Chicken (at least I think that must have been the idea when they started out), but instead of the Colonel (whoever he is) we’ve got Miss Millie.
Basically this place is pretty much the same as wants on offer at your typical KFC. Chicken, of the fried variety. You can get pieces in a bucket or in a box and even some in buns, or chicken burgers, as they’re called. I wouldn’t recommend any of it though. It’s fowl! Only joking, it’s okay. To be honest there isn’t a lot of difference from the aforementioned KFC in pretty much everything including prices. So, if you want fried chicken one night and this place is closer to than KFC, go here, you wont be disappointed.

Imagine the situation: It’s 6pm, sadly there is no food in my house and I’m hungry for something savoury and delicious. I’m walking around Gloucester road in the hope that something will appeal to my taste buds when I stumble upon Miss Millie’s Fried Chicken. No prizes for guessing who they take their inspiration from. There’s something slightly endearing about the little man on his own in there in a cap and uniform too.
You can get all sorts of chicken meals in here at all sorts of times at night, for fair prices, considering they include fries and a drink. The perfect sort of place to come in that moment when all you need is some fried chicken.

I found the staff working there a bit rude but other than that had some nice food. The fried chicken was a bit dry though.

This place should only be saved for those times when you are desperate, drunk, and can’t be bothered to walk to the Grecian pizza place opposite Amici’s (next to Maplins) by the arches. I have made a few trips here before with a complete and utter misplaced optimism. Somehow at the time I always know that I’ll regret it in the morning, but it doesn’t stop me. All I can say is that if you are going to eat here (and presumably you will be drunk at the time, and won’t take the vegetarian option… which is OK), then please remember to dispose of all traces of it in your home… if you bring it back there. Otherwise the smell will make you quite sick of yourself in the morning!
