Herrons Country Fried Chicken Kilkeel in Newry and Mourne

Extremely irregular quality. Used to be great, way better than KFC. Then got new ownership; apparently recipe and cooking instructions weren't part of the deal. Ordered from them a few months ago; no idea how you manage to overcook fried chicken closer to the bone while leaving outside soggy. Gave another shot last week; much improved although the outside was crispy & the meat there nice & moist still overlooked, mysteriously near the bone. But if new owners discover other seasonings than salt (was oversalted for me; but most people use a lot of salt in everything which makes it harder to taste salt, so probably ok by most people's taste) but if they figure out other things exist to season fried chicken (like thyme) & get cooking times down a bit better, then they'll be a welcome addition indeed to Kilkeel. 3 stars because they improved quite a bit since first try since ownership change and a lot of improvement in relatively short time. Can just drop in; which is nice, and husband said service was pretty good and was prompt. Will try again in again a couple of months and change review accordingly; hopefully improvement will continue and I can up stars then!

Chicken really good, big portion of fries

The place is clean, service is pretty quick and they also have the added bonus of nugeleto for dessert 😆

Excellent food. Also serve fries for breakfast. Best in area. Coffee shop at back with plenty of tray bakes, scones, etc.

Lovely food and excellent service

If it's nice do it twice. The taco and garlic sauce kebabs are the real deal. Had it two nights in a row and didn't do a third because that would just be wrong 😋

No good garlic mayo like soup one forkfull of chicken in my kebab didn't know wither the nuggets were cold or chicken. No hurry back

Very rude staff. A man ordered before us while there was two staff at the till and another at the back of the kitchen. When we went up to order and said hello, the two women at the till ignored us and walked off. We waited a few minutes to see if they were going to come back to the till to take our order but they didn't so we left. Maybe they're incapable of completing more than one order at a time. Shocking service, will never return.

This fast food sit in & take away has a warm and welcoming atmosphere with a café that serves a range of beverages, sandwiches and delicious desserts. You will always find something to spoil yourself.

Great friendly atmosphere. Good clean premise's. Location also has indoor seating arrangements.Food was well cook through and decent menu options. So long as you like chicken.
