Flavas Grill

Flavas Grill is the peri-peri chicken specialist on Horninglow Road, almost next door to Spice Hut on the inner-residential takeaway run north of Burton-upon-Trent railway station. The kitchen runs flame-grilled chicken in the Nando's style as the headline draw — quarter and half-bird portions, marinated in peri-peri spice mixes from mild through medium to extra hot, served with chips, rice or pitta and a side board of garlic bread, wings, coleslaw and corn.

Reviewers single out the peri-peri chicken and the garlic bread as the standouts, with the chicken kebabs and wraps close behind. Pizzas fill out the back end of the menu for the late trade, alongside a small burger board and southern-fried strips. The shop runs unusually deep hours every night of the week, which makes it one of the genuine late-trade kitchens in central Burton.

Trade is collection and delivery across the central Burton patch, listed on Uber Eats and Just Eat. A useful peri-style alternative to the chain Nando's on Middleway Retail Park for the Horninglow, Anglesey Street and Branston Road residential streets, particularly for households running on shift patterns or post-pub trade.
