    • Chi O. ★★★★★ : As convenient as it is my irritation comes from the lack of cleanliness! Everytime I go here it’s flies hovering over the food that’s inside glass!! I don’t understand how ppl are expected to eat it.. flies lays eggs that u can’t really see and secondly I would fire all the attendants their attitude is worse! Like why take this job and not do it well? Their nonchalant nature is irritating like they are bothered by u patronizing them,.
    • Mr C. ★★★★★ : Loud music, loud television, came on business lunch and had to scream over each other. I asked the staff twice to please turn music down and they ignored me. Will not return

Frequently asked questions

Which fast food restaurant in Umuahia has the highest rating?

Crunchies Fried Chicken on Market Road has the highest rating at 4.7 stars, but that is based on only 22 reviews. Roots Restaurants & Cafe has a 4-star rating from 487 reviews, making it the most-reviewed place in this set.

How many fast food restaurants are listed for Umuahia?

Nine fast food restaurants are currently listed and ranked on this page. The list includes Roots Restaurants & Cafe, Crunchies Fried Chicken, Hoeffers Restaurant And Fast Foods, Jovit fast food, Chopsy, and four others with smaller review counts.

Why does Roots Restaurants & Cafe rank first if Crunchies has a higher rating?

Ranking considers both rating and review volume. Roots has 487 reviews, far more than Crunchies' 22, giving it a larger evidence base. Crunchies' 4.7 is based on a relatively small sample, so it is not treated as a stronger signal.

What does a 3.6-star rating from 423 reviews mean for Hoeffers?

Hoeffers Restaurant And Fast Foods has a 3.6-star average from 423 reviews. That is a substantial number of reviews, but the average is below the top two. It indicates a mixed reception among customers, though the data does not explain the reasons.

How does Ranked order the restaurants on this page?

The order is based on the available Google review data: the rating and the number of reviews each business has. Businesses with no reviews are listed lower. This is not a paid placement; it reflects the data we list.
