My go-to order is a box of tenders and a box of onion rings, they do both of those very well! Also LOVE their honey mustard dip, it's the best of any chain.

I order delivery from Lee's sometimes and other times I pick it up in person.

Lots of chicken options and different sides here, nothing I've tried over the years has been BAD but I find the wedges to be underwhelming.

Parking: Located in a shopping mall, plenty of free parking.

Got a 12 piece bone-in. The chicken pieces were extremely small, severely dry and overcooked. It’s like they took leftover chicken from the day before reheated it and gave it to us. Definitely will not be returning.

I went there to pick an order from
dd. The lady at the front was ignorant. I thought she was busy with drive through or at the customer who was ahead of me. I was waiting there more than 10mins with my bag. She didn’t even hesitate to ask about the number or name. I looked back I saw there were about 6 people
Waiting to order. Suddenly another deliver guy came and cut us and asked for his order. The front lady gave him the order. I was shocked then I interrupted her conversation with the customer and asked for my order. Guess what? The Order was lying there for more than 15ish minutes I believe. I wasted my 10mins there for no reasons. No one expects such unprofessionals from Lees. Thanks

Chicken was bland, overall lacking in flavour. Listen, I got high the other night, and I was definitely more cooked than this food. Jokes aside, I did question whether the chicken was fully cooked. If this was a cool, crisp autumn day, perhaps a warm Pepsi might have been sufficient. But at this point, I have drinks in the back of my car, rolling around, full heat all day, and they were colder than my Pepsi. Would give 0 stars, but the McCain Deep’n Delicious you can order through the drive through was the saving grace. Again, jokes aside, I’m not sure if it is due to new management, but the quality at this restaurant has gone down hill considerably.

I heard good things, so I was looking forward to getting my mouth around some of Lee's meat. First thing I noticed when I opened the box was the size of the meat which was disappointing to say the least. The size of the meat isn't the most important thing if they know how to use it. Lee's did not know how to use it. The meat was very bland. The fries and biscuit were bland too. I'm usually a big fan of having my biscuit smothered in gravy but Lee's gravy didn't satisfy. Next time I'm looking to stuff my craw, I'll be paying a visit to the Colonel, not Lee's.

Another south asian buisness that is consistent with many sad reviews throughout Nanaimo. If I ever buy again I will ask to see the food before I pay. Sad world...its all about profit.

I walked in with my homie and we both ordered the same meal, 2 minutes later we got our food. It was delicious, crispy chicken. Good seasoning/sauce on the chicken burger. 10/10 would recommend.
