Was PintOfGuinness at Char Bella a mag?
We regularly go here, from reviews best to avoid the bang bang kitchen. I was disappointed as well as I'm used to a sweeter satay taste. Apart from that the burgers are awesome, go for the cheapest one, the char babs taste fantastic, the reggae reggae pizza tastes great. Get the chips and ask for the kebab dip with it, awesome!! Remember you can do half and half pizzas so you can find the better one quicker. View all feedback.

What Gordon Davies dislikes about Char Bella:
We recently dined at Char Bella for the first time and were disappointed by the quality of the food. We ordered a calzone pizza with chips, but were not impressed. The pizza dough was undercooked and the filling was dry. The chicken seemed overcooked, resulting in a tough and stringy texture. To make matters worse, the chips were burnt and clearly frozen. It's unacceptable for a takeout restaurant to serve frozen foo... View all feedback.

Healthier than normal pizzas as some of the ingredients are char grilled. My husband doesn't do pizza but was more than happy with the chicken goujons and chips and the onion rings were some of the best I've ever had. Go for the party meal which has pizzas, garlic bread and other plainer things which should feed at least four people for £20

Similar to Chris L. 's review, we ordered the Bang Bang Chicken and discovered it to be one of the worst takeaway dishes we 've ever ordered. A single slice of chicken coated in a thick peanut butter flavoured paste atop a mountain of flavourless noodles, pepper and onion. This dish was my main complaint. The Burgers were a marked improvement, containing good quality thick cut meat with average quality toppings. Finally the BBQ pizza was also average. Similar quality to the thin base pizzas many chip-shops serve.
