About Golden Chip

On Comber Rd in Belfast, Golden Chip is a fish and chips takeaway operating on a walk-in basis. The menu is kept short, built around Fish and Chips, with two dishes in total on offer. Orders are taken at the counter rather than by reservation, and a wait is common once the shop fills up. It runs Monday to Saturday and stays closed on Sundays, giving it a set weekly rhythm rather than daily service. The compact menu keeps preparation focused on the core order, and the counter setup keeps the format simple for anyone stopping by on their way through Comber Rd.

Customer Review Summary

Soggy chips are the most repeated complaint among reviewers, who describe them as mushy, stuck together, and no better than petrol station deli chips, with a small portion. Fish comes next: reviewers report batter that falls apart, fish soaking in grease, and thin fillets that are mostly batter. One says the cod turned out to be a tough, grey, cheaper fish with a fatty spine. Others mention a watery gravy with no flavour and another with a sour taste, battered sausages as hard as a rock, and a chicken burger made dry by sparse mayonnaise. One diner reports a burnt, brittle order, and another says a beef burger arrived without its bacon and cheese. One reviewer reports feeling unwell the next morning, without linking it to the food. A few say it used to be reliably good, and one praises friendly staff, fair prices and consistently great food. Staff are described as friendly or nice in several reviews, including the young woman serving. Christmas chips at a high price arrived with no turkey or ham, which one buyer noticed only after reading the reviews.

    “Always have a great experience here. Food is always great and reasonably priced. Very friendly staff. Would highly recommend!”

    “Had it a few months ago and wasn’t the best but thought we’d try again. The beef burger was missing its bacon and cheese, and honestly was cooked to an inch of its life. …”

    “Any time we usually get from The Golden Chip, it's usually lovely. However, lastnight was unfortunately not the case... It all tasted really bland lastnight, the battered sausages were as hard as a rock, the chips were pretty soggy and some tasted like they weren't properly cooked. The gravy was also really odd, it had a sour/tangy taste to it, and it just overall wasn't nice to eat. Woke up this morning not feeling well, so i hope it wasn't that... The cheeseburger was probably the nicest thing I got lastnight, but it still wasn't up to standard like we're used to. Very unfortunate. The lady was nice serving us though.”
  • Sarah McCullough
    “Went to the chippy for the fist time in years and I honestly have to say I will NEVER be back! Ordered two fish suppers the fish was soaking in grease the batter just completely fell apart, the chips where diabolical all stuck together …”
  • Robert Devenney
    “I think this place should be renamed The Anemic Chip... Nothing golden or crispy about their chips. They had the same sweaty soggy look as petrol station deli chips and tasted slightly worse. Got gravy with mine but it was watery and honestly tasted of nothing. Chicken burger was slightly better but they ration mayonnaise something serious so made the burger quite dry overall. Place was covered in all these take away certificates and I don't know why because it's the worst chippy I have had in a long time, actually possibly the worst. Believe the Google reviews Vs questionable awards. Car park beside it has a pot hole you could lose a lorry and trailer in its that big. Service from the young girl in fairness was good. Needless to say won't be back”
