Quick info
About The Pilton Fryer
The Pilton Fryer is a fish and chips takeaway at 94 Pilton St in Barnstaple, with a dedicated gluten free selection that includes gluten free fish and chips for customers who avoid gluten. The menu is extensive, and a mini fish and chips sits alongside the standard portions. Sausages come original or battered, and the jumbo sausage can be ordered with a large curry sauce. Curry is also listed as a dish in its own right. Food is often cooked fresh while you wait, so the counter is where orders are placed and collected.

“We have been going to Pilton Fryer for several years and now know most of the staff, who are always friendly, polite and happy to have a chat and a laugh. We tend to have the same meal, two mini fish and chips, jumbo sausage and a large curry sauce, which the perfect size for us. The food is always hot and often freshly cooked while you wait. It tastes wonderful and we have never been disappointed with our meals.”
