There is something special about finding a local food business that genuinely cares about its community.
Not just about serving generous portions or creating crave worthy flavours, but about making a difference beyond the kitchen too. That is exactly what makes B.L.C Food stand out in Diss and the surrounding area.
Ran by Ben and proudly known as Bens Loaded Community, this is not just another takeaway. It is a Suffolk fried, Norfolk roasted chicken haven with heart, purpose and seriously satisfying food.
From golden, crispy Suffolk fried chicken to perfectly seasoned Norfolk roasted chicken, from loaded ciabattas dripping with garlic and parmesan to indulgent cookies that truly earn the title loaded, B.L.C Food is redefining what local takeaway can be.
With delivery and collection available across Diss and nearby villages, it has quickly become a go to for those who want flavour, value and a feel good factor all in one box.
Proper local flavour, done right
At the heart of B.L.C Food is a simple promise, high quality, locally sourced food at affordable prices. That mission is not just a nice sentence on a website. It is reflected in every crispy bite and every carefully roasted portion of chicken that leaves the kitchen.
Specialising in Suffolk fried and Norfolk roasted chicken, Bens Loaded Community proudly champions regional produce. The fried chicken delivers that satisfying crunch on the outside while staying tender and juicy on the inside. The roasted chicken brings classic comfort, seasoned beautifully and cooked to perfection. It is the kind of food that feels familiar, but elevated.
Then there are the loaded options. Ben’s Loaded Chicken Ciabattas are not shy. Whether topped with garlic and parmesan, smothered in rich gravy or glazed in bold Korean BBQ sauce, they are generous, messy in the best possible way and unapologetically indulgent. Add a portion of Bens Loaded wedges, golden roasties or fluffy rice on the side and dinner suddenly feels like an event rather than just something grabbed between errands.
And it would be wrong not to mention Bens Loaded Cookies. Because no one ever regrets adding a cookie to the order. Especially when it is soft, chunky and clearly made with the same care as everything else on the menu.
For residents in Diss and the surrounding area, having B.L.C Food on the doorstep means access to comforting, flavour packed food that proudly supports local sourcing. That alone is reason enough to give it a try.
Food that gives back to the community
Great food is always welcome. Great food that supports grassroots sport is something else entirely. One of the most inspiring things about B.L.C Food is its commitment to community impact. A remarkable 50 percent of profit is donated to Norfolk grassroots football.
That means every loaded ciabatta, every box of fried chicken and every portion of roasties is helping to fund local teams, support young players and keep community sport thriving. In a time when many grassroots clubs struggle for funding, this kind of commitment makes a genuine difference.

Bens Loaded Community is more than a name. It is a reflection of what the business stands for. The idea that food can bring people together, not just around a table, but around shared goals and shared pride in the local area. Ordering from B.L.C Food becomes more than satisfying a craving. It becomes a small but meaningful way to invest back into Norfolk’s future football stars.
There is something undeniably satisfying about knowing that tonight’s dinner is also helping to buy kits, maintain pitches and create opportunities for young athletes. It adds an extra layer of warmth to every bite.
Convenient, affordable and genuinely welcoming
Life is busy. Between work, family, training sessions and everything else, having a reliable local takeaway that delivers quality without fuss is invaluable. B.L.C Food offers both delivery and collection, making it easy for customers in Diss and nearby areas to enjoy their favourites without complication.
The focus on affordability is central to the mission. High quality, locally sourced food should not feel like a luxury reserved for special occasions. It should be accessible. Bens Loaded Community understands that, and the menu reflects a desire to offer generous portions at fair prices.
There is also something refreshingly personal about a business that is clearly driven by one individual’s passion. Ran by Ben, the brand feels approachable and authentic. It does not hide behind corporate language or faceless marketing. It feels like a local lad serving up food he genuinely believes in, with a side order of community spirit.
For families looking for an easy midweek dinner, for friends planning a relaxed Friday night in, or for anyone who simply fancies properly cooked chicken with all the trimmings, B.L.C Food delivers in more ways than one.
In a world full of food options, choosing local can make all the difference. Choosing local, flavour packed food that supports grassroots football and is built on a genuine community mission is even better. Bens Loaded Community is not just serving chicken. It is serving purpose, pride and plenty of garlic and parmesan along the way.
