Juicy Lucy - Haymarket

Lucy, the host, makes the most delicious buns on earth. They are soft and squishy, yet firm, just how you like them! Even though some may not enjoy the tuna, I definitely do!

I ordered the Juicy Lucy burger and it was extremely disappointing. The chicken was tough and the batter was chewy, there were bits of gristle, and the bun was like one from a supermarket. I have tried a few fried chicken spots in Sydney recently, and this one was by far the worst. It's even worse than the cheapest places, yet they charge $13 for the burger. For just $1 extra, you could get something much better at Thirsty Bird.

I ordered food from this restaurant through Uber Eats and had it delivered to Redfern. The food arrived still warm, which was great. I decided to try the chicken tenders, Juicy Lucy chicken burger, and some chips. The tenders were a bit plain by themselves, but the dipping sauce added a nice flavor. I also ordered some chips with a different dipping sauce, which made them delicious. The sauces were reasonably priced at $1 to $1.50 each. However, I was disappointed with the Juicy Lucy burger. The chicken was flavorless, lacking sauce, and had too many pickles and tomatoes. I should have asked for an extra sauce to enhance the flavor, but if the chicken requires sauce to be tasty, that's a drawback.

My work friends come here often so wanted to try it as well. I give it an average score but that’s in line with what I expected it’s good for what it is. The wraps are insanely filling very heavy with options stuffed with rice and fries. The quality of the chicken was actually pretty good for a small fast food type establishment. Venue itself is a bit divey service in line with take away venues. If you want quick and easy and fast food style fried chicken this is a decent option in this part of town.

I had one of the basic chicken sandwiches. It was absolutely huge, to their credit. But, it was filled with mostly batter and skin, with small bits of dark meat chicken. It wasn't that great, and was incredibly greasy. I had high hopes walking in...
