Food is nice if you get it delivered on time and correct. Unfortunately that rarely happens. Majority of the time it’s late, cold or wrong. An hour and a half tonight to get 1 warm meal and 3 cold ones that we had to heat up ourselves before we could eat it. Phones after and hour and 10 minutes and was told it was on its way. Still hadnt arrived so phoned again 20 minutes later to ask if it had been out for delivery for 20 minutes or if they’d lied before about it being on its way - no one could answer that question. Owners attitude is absolutely disgusting too.

Kings Park Diner Cafe & Takeaway
Overview
Kings Park Diner Cafe & Takeaway sits at 283 Castlemilk Road in the Kings Park / Croftfoot area of south Glasgow (G44 4LE). It is a long-standing local cafe-takeaway: its own ordering site says it has been established since 1951, and long-time customers remember it as an Italian ice-cream parlour before it grew into a full kebab, curry and pizza takeaway under current ownership. The menu is broad and budget-friendly — charcoal kebabs and calzone wraps, Indian curries and tandoori dishes, fresh-base pizzas (including a Kings Park Special and The Sizzler), burgers, munchy boxes, and traditional Italian-style ice cream (cones, 99s, oysters). Order online via kingspark.cafe or kingsparkdiner.co.uk, or through Just Eat; they deliver to G44, G45 and G73. Collection is often the safer bet when busy. Hours on the official site are Monday–Friday 4pm–11:30pm and Saturday–Sunday 2pm–11:30pm (phone 0141 632 9613). Croftfoot railway station is about a 10-minute walk; buses 34, 46 and 75 run along Castlemilk Road. Google sits around 3.9 from a few hundred reviews: diners often praise portions, curries, pakora and the ice cream, while peak-time waits, missing items and delivery delays are the recurring complaints. Food Standards Scotland last inspected on 7 October 2025 (Pass).

Ordered a collection. When we arrived paid for an extra Salad and realised when we got home that there was no salad. Called the shop and was hung up on. Recommend going somewhere else.
Read on Google MapsGreat food, great service, use their app for ordering, it's cheaper.
Read on Google MapsI've ordered a few times from here since moving into the area however I ordered a chicken and prawn madras with fried rice and a garlic chapatti on sat paid over £20 got no rice and was asked to pay an extra £2.80 to have the chapatti I had paid for for requesting it to be updated to garlic chapatti there's no option online to request this? Tonight I ordered small 8" inch pizza with chicken mushroom onion and smoked sausage received 1 piece of chicken and 1 piece of smoked sausage on my small pizza I know I asked for small pizza but one piece each is ridiculous I got a chapatti shish wrap asked for salad sauce separate salad was in my wrap no sauce separate or even involved 😅 so it's fair to say I won't be rushing back 😅
Read on Google MapsWaited over an hour and a half to receive stone cold, average food. Won’t be ordering again. When we called to find out where it was we were told they were extremely busy and few drivers on. Well, don’t take orders you can’t fulfil in a reasonable time and to a decent standard.
