HFC (Halal Fried Chicken) in Wijk 02 Almere Stad

Worthless service! The order was delayed by more than two hours and there was absolutely no communication. Unreliable and definitely not recommended.

Food takes over 1.5 hours to be delivered. Phone goes direct to voicemail. Not a serious business.

The food was supposed to be delivered after 45 minutes, but it wasn't delivered until almost 2 hours later. The worst part is that they unceremoniously dumped it, and the chicken tasted of oil. Inedible!!! If HFC has problems, they should turn off the ordering function and focus on what is happening inside the restaurant. This is truly unacceptable!! My advice is not to order here to avoid deep disappointment. We feel literally robbed; the food, service, and delivery were properly paid for by us in advance. I gave 1 star because 0 is not possible. This experience is deeply sad. Ugh. 🤢 🤮

I ordered a burger WITHOUT tomatoes, pickles, and onions, and I received one with tomatoes, pickles, and onions. Some orders were mixed up or missing and arrived late. The wait was long. There was also no cheese soufflé, even though it wasn't listed on the menu. I do not recommend this restaurant.

I was shocked by the ‘food’ I received. Old, dark lettuce, a limp wrap practically falling apart. Fries ice cold and corn old too. Couldn't finish the food and unfortunately threw it away because it was already disgusting to look at. Thanks for nothing and goodbye forever. Very, very disappointed.

I just stopped by Halal Fried Chicken (HFC) in Almere and wow, this was exactly what I needed! The chicken here is truly next-level: perfectly seasoned, super crispy on the outside, and incredibly juicy on the inside. What you absolutely must try? The spicy wings and their delicious chicken burgers! 🍔🍟 Everything is 100% halal and prepared fresh for you. Additionally, the service is super fast, the staff is friendly, and the place itself is beautiful and clean. For me, absolutely the best spot in Almere if you have cravings for good comfort food. I will definitely be back here soon! Have you tried HFC yet?

Spent the day in Almere with the family and came across HFC. We are familiar with it in The Hague, but this branch was certainly very clean and quiet. The staff here are also very friendly. Highly recommended! Plus, it has a nice view over the square.

Placed an order today. Disgusting food, the order was incomplete, and as soon as I call, I get hung up on. You're better off burning your money than spending it here. It is scandalous that a business like this is still operating.

Not worth it, never coming here again. Meat where you can throw a frisbee, trash! Not worth 10 grams of meat??

Not tasty and really not worth it?

I bought chicken here and was very disappointed with the quality. The chicken looked as if it had been fried in old oil and was even burnt. Moreover, the food had an unpleasant, rancid smell, which was very unappetizing. When selling food, it is not only important that it is halal, but also that it is prepared fresh, cleanly, and hygienically. Additionally, I even found hairs in the food, which is absolutely unacceptable. Honesty towards customers is important. If something is not fresh or of good quality, it should not be sold.

Ordered via uber eats. Specifically requested please no drumsticks for kipstukken. Got ALL drumsticks instead. Rude

This just isn't right; every time I order from here, we wait 2-3 hours. After waiting 50 minutes, it says "it's almost here" and that the delivery driver is already on their way, but then it stays like that for hours! It's really a shame because I really like the food.

We ate here today and took a double beefburger home for the folks back. The beefburger was undercooked and at least 60% rare inside; the tables and chairs were dirty, as was basically the entire dining area. The staff was friendly, though. But this was definitely the last time for me.

Cousin, what is this, brother? I ordered at 12 o'clock, it's 2:00 now and it's just arriving. Everyone is laughing, already asleep. What are these times? When we call, absolutely no one answers. Totally useless.

Your food isn't tasty and you send different orders for people If there is no email, don't send fries for people Ordered mayonnaise, but I didn't get it I paid for it If something isn't available, remove it from that site so people don't know how to order it If I order something, I expect it because I paid for it

Decent halal fast food options.

Had a tasty burger. Friendly service.

I place an order, I pay And only after 30 minutes am I told that the chicken pieces are not available, and this is not the first time; this happens regularly Whatever is available, remove it from your site or make it greyed out, like almost every company does

My experience at HFC was downright terrible. From the moment I entered, I was overwhelmed by an unpleasant stench and the smell of smoke due to the lack of ventilation. The entire restaurant was filthy and sticky, which immediately gave an unhygienic impression. The food was even more disappointing. The chicken was not warm and tasted awful, and the buns and the smash burger were downright disgusting. After this meal, I developed severe stomach pain and even had to vomit. It was truly a nightmare. The photo is a real photo of one of the people vomiting. We all threw up. When we reported our complaints to an employee, they just looked at us and responded laconically with ‘oh, okay’. That made the whole situation even more frustrating, because there was absolutely no interest in or understanding of our complaint. Finally, it was a waste to spend 60 euros on junk. For three burgers and three portions of fries, we received a miserable meal that wasted every penny.

Empty restaurant, yet all the trash cans were full, with rubbish on top of them as well. Tables dirty. Both Somali ladies behind the counter were busy on their mobile phones, chewing gum in their mouths, and very unfriendly. Very short answers to questions, tense behavior. All specials sold out or unavailable. And what is available is very sad, see photos. The toilets were also very dirty. We will not be returning to this branch.

I tried to order online and after more than one hour no one came and also after calling them, they didnt even cancel

Ordered via Thuisbezorgd. Unfortunately, the food was not fresh, which I have experienced before. The fries and chicken nuggets were not crispy or fresh at all. It seemed like it had been prepared a day in advance. This was very disappointing!! As far as I'm concerned, this place should really close!!!

i received wrong ordered. but manager handled it very quick!

I love their milkshakes and spicy burgers in addition to that friendly stuff

its alright, foods very salty so i like to eat it with rice at home

We ordered a 15-piece chicken bucket through Thuisbezorgd, but the restaurant called and said it was not available. We then changed the order to three burger meals. When the food arrived, the order was still incorrect. When we called the restaurant, the staff member said "he didn’t know how to help us". Very disappointing experience.

Ordered through Thuisbezorgd... I didn't receive my complete order. After that, I couldn't get in touch again, by phone or text, to get my money back! What a terrible thing!

Goated restaurant. The manager gave me extra nuggets because of black history month.

Super good food and very friendly staff

I wanted to order with visitors in November because of a special offer. As you can see in the image, I received a call back. Someone was supposed to come with a two-for-one deal, but unfortunately, I paid and didn't show up. I sent an email afterward, but no response. I'll definitely not be ordering again!

They radiate customer friendliness

The food here is always good. The chicken is always perfectly cooked and not too greasy. The fries and burgers are also always excellent. It's a shame the milkshakes are often unavailable, but when they are, they're delicious too. Every time I come here, there's always a good spot to sit.

HFC is a fantastic fast-food restaurant. The staff is incredibly cheerful and friendly, and the atmosphere is super cozy. They really do an excellent job and give you good value for your money. Definitely recommended!

The staff was far too busy filming some promotional video instead of preparing our food. The wait for a burger took a full 20 minutes, even though we were the only ones in the restaurant. One time, never again, unfortunately.

Ordered food after an hour and a half, order cancelled.

It is extremely basic. Will never go back. Kids ate their fries but tbh the food was so bland. Dry, tasteless, not good, even for fast food I mean the expectation was low to begin with but it was still dissapointing

I've been waiting for my food for over 40 minutes, the staff has time for everything, replying to messages, going to the back and getting on the phone after 40 minutes, they said they forgot about my order, I honestly don't recommend it

Average experience. There was no distinctive flavor. I ordered a "smash," but it wasn't a "smash"; it was just a regular frozen burger, not fresh meat. I didn't notice any unique flavors. It was frozen food served only at the restaurant, so I won't be repeating the experience. I prefer restaurants that have their own special meat, marinades, and sauces, not store-bought ones. The service was good, and the staff were friendly.

I really like the kipstuks, the quality of the chicken is much better than those from KFC. Highly recommend

Average flavors but very good customer service and organization of orders. I did not like the prepared hamburger that was heated in the microwave.

The food was poor, not good. The meat was cheap and very expensive for an 8e hamburger with only onions and pickles (it looked completely different in the photo 😅). The menu was poor. The fries and chicken were good. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it and I won't be back.

Food quality is bad had to return my burgers cuz they were raw. The resturant is dirty. I literally saw a rat running out of the kitchen !!

Biggest scam ever. I can't believe they're still open. Every time, part of my order isn't delivered. When I call, no one answers. This is completely pointless. They also charge a deposit on cans that don't have a deposit. Beware of this bunch of scum.

I ordered and paid for two double smash burgers, and when I got home, they only delivered one and a regular burger. And all that while the smash burgers cost 10.95 each! Rip-offs! They're impossible to reach by phone!

I wouldn't eat here unless you want hair in your food, it's really disgusting 👎

Never had such a bad meal, poor quality chicken, and it was incredibly expensive. The burger was also dry.

Just picked up two smash burgers, what a disgrace!! Not at all the smash burger pictured on their window display. Tasteless and no toppings like lettuce, tomato, or onion rings 😱👎. It's the size of a Happy Meal burger. You wouldn't even fill your hollow tooth with this at HFC. So save your money and effort! If you want a real smash burger and you're in Weert, in the south of Limburg, come to Smaax. You'll get your money's worth there, and the delicious, large burger comes on a Turkish bun (which is quite different from a kid's burger with toppings and delicious homemade sauce or your choice of sauce😜). The price at HFC isn't worth it, a pure rip-off!! Never again!

Food was good, needs to add sauce for salad !! Also time management should be under consideration

Really bad delivery service always forgets the things no delivery tracking nothing

Scammers, this place needs to be shut down. Months ago, I ordered something from the menu board with a friend, only to be told there were no pastries or tea available. I paid, and they said it would be refunded, but it still hasn't happened. I called several times and was told the manager would contact me. This hasn't happened, and I still haven't received my money back. You're terrible, putting a customer through so much trouble, it's ridiculous!

The food here is so good, McDonald's can't compete. The prices are also much better.

I got a really good burger. Very fresh and hot, with good fries.

Would you please give your business a thorough cleaning (it literally stinks of garbage?). It might be a good idea to install a better air purifier and clean your business regularly. That way, you'll have more happy customers.

The food tasted good. My friend got a burger without a bottom bun. We waited 30 minutes.

Plastic in my food, wrong drinks ( not orderd ). Tabels dirty. food very oily. Very less fries. Do NEVER go here!

If you like KFC you should try HFC....far better chicken and burgers...all the food better....better ambience and service..

I ordered a bucket; the wings were the most delicious ones!

Paid around 50 euros for 3 menus. - wrap was tasty - hamburgers were tasty - fries were not fresh a bit greasy - hot wings were okay - chicken leg was old probably been in the oven for hours, hard and no taste. I got a new one but it was just as bad we threw them away. The prices are a bit high, the food does not meet the price you pay for it. Music could have been a bit softer. Waiter was nice, but should clean the tables.

It is very bad chicken Black color I will never come back

We got something here once before as an eat-in. The kids thought it was tasty and crispy, so we wanted to try it again despite the bad reviews. This time we had to wait for a Bucket with 7 hungry kids. After half an hour it still wasn't ready. We didn't expect this and because we had an appointment we couldn't wait any longer, because this isn't normal! We wanted our money back but this wasn't possible right away. They called the manager and wrote in pencil on the receipt that we could come back for a refund. I wonder if I will actually get it. Then I will update the review. Update: came back today and got the money back as agreed. That's why it's 2 stars

I asked for a full burger and got an empty burger

Great fast food with excellent milkshakes👌🏼!!!

Food is overpriced for what you get, service is slower than a round trip flight from Amsterdam to London, Hygiene isn't existing most time.

I don't understand on the right that this place is still open. It was good at first. Everything has really deteriorated in the last year. First I received the salad in a small cardboard container and without the accompanying sauce and it was really inedible. Now I order a smash burger, which is just a piece of meat with a slice of cheese and some sauce (exactly like an earlier review with photos, a pity I had not seen it before) and absolutely not edible. I will never come back here, that's one thing for sure. I'd rather drive to Amsterdam if I'm in the mood for HFC. This is really a shame

Paid 28 euros for 1 menu, a loose sandwich and chili cheese nuggets I ended up eating 1 fries, 2 chili cheese nuggets and a bite out of each burger FOR 28 EURO sauce on the smash burger was no longer good, also immediately got a stomach ache and tasted spoiled, so either expired or stored too warm, the only thing you can eat here is the chili cheese nuggets, it is not worth the name hfc, nothing halal about this, any deception is just as haram to serve people like maccie

Ordered a children's menu, did not receive a children's toy and were not told that the toy was finished

The portion was huge! The chicken was super delicious too. The place was super clean and it was empty when we went. I think they made everything on the spot so it was nice and hot to eat.

Burger, potatoes and chickens are too delicious. Nowadays, there are too many discounts... Don't pass away!

Dirtiest food ever get raw chicken and then new and dry it was

The food was cold and I had to wait more than an hour. When it was finally delivered, my order wasn't even complete. I called to report this, but the girl on the phone put me on hold without saying a word - for ten minutes. In the end I had to wait another 45 minutes. Way too long! I asked for my money back, because this is really not possible

Ordered food for children at 7:00 PM. It is already 9:30 PM and food has still not been delivered. Happened once before during the holidays, but today really goes too far. 2.5 hours and food still not delivered. Worst experience ever had in my life. And communication super and super bad. What a mistake I made making this choice. I will never, ever order food from you again and will advise everyone never to order food from this restaurant. 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

Since I started going to HFC I never go back to other places that have fried chicken. Even though you have to wait a few minutes, the food is always tasty and the staff is very friendly. There is almost always room to sit and otherwise you can always do takeaway. 5:5 stars

They are sensitive about halal products. The service is fast and the staff is friendly. I was very satisfied

Food was fine, but staff doesn't know what service is,,

Ordered Rosti Burger and tasted very good!

Better than KFC. Price is comparable to other fast food restaurants, personally I think the fries here are much better and most dishes have more flavor. I do think there should be less salt.

Why does the chicken look like this?

Horrible food, no sauces, and the ones they have, you have to pay extra, the smell of the place is terrible, the toilet dirty, tables dirty, never going again.

This was honestly the worst burger I have ever eaten. The meat was still raw and seemed to want to escape from my mouth. It doesn't look like the menu pictures, this was really much worse. I'll never come back here again. How can two hamburger menus be ready in less than two minutes? Take your time and cook the meat properly!

I feel very ripped off. The photo of the menu shows a fresh burger with some greenery and a good piece of meat, but what we received was an extremely disappointing, old and tough piece of meat with some sauce, for €28,-. At every other tent in the city you get more and better quality. What a disappointment this is!

Everything was cold, fries, dry, not much oil for me anymore.

Ordered 2 piece chicken and it was completely burnt then called no refund or replacement food delivered

The burger is delicious, but the chicken nuggets is small portion and expensive

You cannot return the deposit can that you purchased here

Normally always good here. Now ordered chicken wrap, it looked like it had been prepared 8 hours ago, it contained 2 small chicken pieces with brown lettuce, mainly greasy and limp. Very unfortunate. I would like to receive compensation because this is 8 euros thrown away.

Waited 45 minutes for the order and only half delivered

The prices are high and the food has no taste

A cozy place to relish halal fast food! Service with a smile

I recently ordered from HFC, and I’m happy to report that the changes under the new ownership are fantastic. While delivery took a little longer than expected in the past, now everything runs smoothly. The staff is much faster and more efficient, and the food quality is still top-notch. The fried chicken was crispy, flavorful, and exactly what I was craving. I’m excited to see how much better things have gotten, and I’ll definitely be ordering again soon!

Employee says: chicken wrap has just been made, but he doesn't dare swear by it (wollah). This has given me little confidence in eating jet hfc.

Spent 50 euros on a bucket, chicken pieces, chili cheese nuggets and 2 large fries. The chicken stinks, the chilli cheese nuggets were soggy as if they came out of the microwave, as were the fries. I called the business to file a complaint, but the cashier didn't want to do anything about it, so he gave me his employer's number, but of course he doesn't answer. Very strange service and 50 euros thrown in the toilet. So I will never order here again

They charge a deposit and have deposit-free cans. Staff is slow. Friends were read to we had to wait. They got our food for free. And we who had to pay who had to wait table was dirty.

Horrible and expensive. Ordered and waited for 2 hours only to receive the completely wrong order. Spent 70 euros for 1 menu instead of 3 menus

Very bad service and scam. Promises to deliver at a time, after which the delivery person arrives at the door 25 minutes earlier than the agreed time, does not deliver the order and then keeps pushing away our phone calls. Hfc has promised to refund the money, which has still not been done a week later. Contacted by telephone two days later and the gentleman now indicates that it is our fault that we should have been at home. In short: the money will not be refunded. Ridiculous!

Catastrophic really a shame!! I strongly advise you not to set foot there. Very very poor quality food. Absolutely nothing is wrong even the fries...

Delivery not delivered. They were also unavailable and did not want to give a refund

After all, our friends are another business that has given up on the idea of ​​having to come again. Don't exploit the sincere feelings of people who value you and come to you. Since there is no privilege when receiving money, there should be no privilege when providing service. Professionalism is zero. The products are tasteless like grass. The chairs and tables outside are covered in mud. Toilets spread germs. When the order is prepared, the staff knocks on the window and says come and get your food. Like a joke. I would never go again and wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Sorry, correct yourself.

Slow and cold food. Sodas are watered down.

Good but some nuggets were very dry and others were too oily.
