Reviews Overview

Most Liked

The crispy, golden batter on the fish consistently receives rave reviews, standing out as a highlight of the menu.

Generous portions of chunky chips accompany each meal, providing satisfaction that leaves patrons coming back for more.

Mushy peas here are not just a side; they complement the fish magnificently, enhancing the overall experience for many guests.

The friendly atmosphere fosters a sense of community, with staff going above and beyond to ensure a delightful visit. Guests feel like family rather than just customers.

Accessible pricing makes this gem a favorite among locals, allowing for multiple visits without breaking the bank, especially during lunch breaks.

Most Disliked

Some visitors mention that the wait times can be longer during peak hours, especially on Fridays and Saturdays, when many locals crave their fish and chips.

A few patrons have noted that the kebab options vary in popularity; while some love them, others feel they aren’t as standout as the iconic fish and chips.

Occasional mix-ups with orders occur during busy periods, leading to a few dissatisfied customers, although the staff is quick to resolve issues.

Limited indoor seating during busy times can lead to a somewhat cramped dining experience, which might be challenging for larger groups to find a comfortable spot.

Despite being wheelchair accessible, some customers feel tight spaces in the dining area could be improved for enhanced comfort.

Hands down one of the best chippies I have tried in the North West! Crispy, golden batter on the fish, proper chunky chips and the curry sauce was spot on. Sausage was cooked perfectly too. Everything was hot, fresh and full of flavour. You can tell they care about quality, will definitely be back! Thank you! 😁🔥🔥

I went in on a Tuesday night at 19:10, so it wasn't very busy. I got freshly fried chips and a good portion of peas. Would recommend.

Absolutely wonderful fish & chips with mushy peas. I HIGHLY recommend this place - not only for the amazing food. The staff was incredible! So friendly and helpful. To the staff: Hello from the 2 crazy American ladies who couldn't find the train station! 😂 You're all amazing and made our trip to the UK more fun. Thank you for your delicious food and friendliness! ❤️

We've had meals delivered the last 2 Fridays for a Friday treat building on a site. Both have been amazing but today's mixed kebab was the best one I've ever had, incredible food.
