Haji Baba Halal Online Reviews 

We use to always get our chicken and meat from their counter within Asda and generally thought their quality was decent. However, a prolonged recent trend we have noticed with the meat and chicken from here is the use by dates are far too extended. You have to use the meat the day you by it or the day after. When the meat/chicken comes within 2 days of the use by date, it smells and is slimey and you’ll end up throwing it rather than using it.

This is not a one off but consistently their meat goes off well before the dates they print on the meat.

1- Excellent meat Quality, I keep buying there Beef Striploin Steak and lamb shoulder. The cut is the about the right size and adequate marbled steak
2- Packed with care, with ice pads keeping it could

Great Value and quality Meat

Meat is of great Quality and the packaging was great. It arrived within 3 days of ordering. The Rib Eyes steaks albeit slightly thinly cut , when I BBQ them was juivy and very tender.

The only issue I had was I had a missing item , and felt the time to rectify this took a bit long and could improve

Asda Oadby Leicester .. Amazing customer service skills and always willing to help.. Great Man Ahmed.. Always smiling and going that extra mile to help, I only go there because of the great service from him and he always cuts my meat neat and clean..

1. Price is way more expensive than local butcher

2. The box was soaking wet even from the outside due to blood leaking from the meat and torn in various places.

3. All the individual packs were dripping of blood/fluid from the meat as they were not packed properly. Some of the polystyrene trays were broken and the meat packs only had a single layer of normal cling film wrapped around the trays which was already torn in some of the packs.

4. When contacted customer service and asked for a refund as the meat has been contaminated and unsafe for consumption, they wanted a picture as insisted it left their warehouse in pristine condition. Thought it was just me and left it at that as I didn’t take any pictures and got rid of everything already but turns out after reading reviews this happened to so many others as well

I recently ordered quite a bulk of meat. The package arrived with lots of problems.

1. Box was opened as it wasn’t sealed properly

2. Blood was leaking from the box

3. Lots of meat packages were not sealed correctly

4. Quite a lot of the meat was discoloured

5. Mixed lamb on the bone was pretty much just all bone and fat

It took me around 5 emails to get a response and finally they offered a refund on the bones meat package.

Really terrible company and will never use again.

Don’t get swayed by the website as the meat looks nothing like the pictures and will arrive contaminated.

Stay clear and find a decent independent local butcher.

DISGUSTING SERVICE, sent out of date sour smelling meat and wrong meat! I ordered a fillet steak from Haji baba online, it came to a total of £15.98 (order no 17065), I waited 2 days for delivery, when being charged £8 for postage you would expect atleast next day, secondly on arrival I was sent a sirloin steak which was discoloured & illegaly had the date label removed and use by labels removed because they KNEW it had gone off, by LAW you are obliged to put use by and packed on date labels on your items, it can seriously harm and kill someone through food poisoning selling them gone off meat, and it wasn’t the premium fillet steak I ordered for £16 so outraged! First time and last time with you guys, you’re a joke and shambles, customer service guy offered a apology and didn’t even offer to send me the correct item, shambles of a company with poor people manning the customer service side, do not buy from here, you WILL be disappointed, just read all the other 1 star reviews.

Went into Hatfield Asda haji baba halal meet store, spent £12.10 for 2 birds of chicken. Firstly they charged me extra for cutting chicken into pieces with out informing me before hand, when asked why there is price difference before and after cutting chicken into pieces that is when they told me there is a charge for cutting into pieces.
I requested them to cut chicken into medium size pieces and when I checked after taking home I was very very disappointed seeing the way it was cut, all the pieces are in random sizes and the fat is not even taken off. Very disappointed with the service and butcher it self was not at all helpful and polite. Never shop with them again.

Terrible rude men that work on these counters in both Asda beckton and Asda Leytonstone. They don’t have any customer service skills. Don’t want to help, serve anyone. Only ever had bad experiences with these counters. I think Asda should get rid of this company being within their shops.

This is all you need to know. This is from a simple google search

A shop based in Asda in Barking has been ordered to pay more than £7,000 after selling raw chicken to a customer.
Haji Baba, a halal meat store which rents space in the supermarket but is a separate company, sold the drumsticks in September 2017 but the customer complained after discovering they were still pink in the middle.
Barking and Dagenham Council launched an investigation and took the company to court.
In a hearing at Barkingside Magistrates Court earlier this month, Haji Baba Ltd was found guilty and fined £3,500. It was also ordered to pay costs of £1,804 with a victim surcharge of £120. 
 
Haji Baba Ltd’s manager was also fined £220, ordered to pay costs of £1,804 and a victim surcharge of £30. 
The Council was then awarded costs of £3,608.
Councillor Margaret Mullane, Cabinet Member for Enforcement and Community Safety, said: “Protecting our residents’ health is a key priority for us and food outlets must ensure they provide food that is fit to eat.
“This retailer sold unsafe food that could have caused serious food poisoning and other related health issues. We take this very seriously in Barking and Dagenham and we will always take action against any business that sells unsafe food.”
Asda declined to comment but Time 107.5 understands it is investigating.

Worst service ever. Received a late order with three of the packages opened. Mince spilled in the box. Box itself was wet with meat leakage.. Ice packs melted. NEVER ORDERING again.

Ordered Worth £152.00 in March-20, almost half order received, and rest of order not received till today.
Contacted so many times, do not attend phone, no reply to emails.
very bad customer service, worst ever experience, also the order received, delivery was very poor, ice bags melted.......
will not order again. avoid please

It’s been a week and no reply from their customer service. Ordered nearly £80 worth of meat for the first time last week. Box received was leaking raw meat blood and some items did not get delivered. Ordered two medium whole chicken but received one tiny baby whole chicken instead. Requested a refund multiple times via different channels. No reply. Will no longer order from them. AVOID!!

I just heard one of the their manager that chicken is not halal.
It’s really shocked me

What a top man AHMED HEFNI ASDA PETERBOROUGH- this young man greets me with the most sincere smile everytime I see him, he knows what I want and does it without me asking and with care he is so polite and courteous. His counter is spotlessy clean and always stocked up, nothing is too much trouble for him, he is always there and works very hard top guy. Keep smiling Ahmed you deserve to be management.

One of the worst experiences.

1. Food of 10 kg was ordered. By the time the meat came it was room temperature and smelling. I called the company and they had no idea what to do.
2. They came back to me after nearly 20 hours and told me they could not pick the meet up until 5 days and asked me to keep the meat in the freezer for 5 days until pick up.
3. I had kept the food in the freezer overnight and my freezer started smelling. They is another issue.
4. I had to go and drop the meet back to the shop myself.

Really poor customer service and food packaging beware..

The most rudest disgusting company that I have ever bought me off I would highly recommend not purchasing meat from this company they are so dirty in their packaging the meat had gone off by the time it had come to me I had already bought me of them before and it was honestly the worst quality meat I've ever bought anyone with a good sense would go over to and purchase meat from healthy halal.
