Customer Review Summary
Fish and chips draw the most praise at City Fryer, with reviewers describing beautifully cooked fish and massive, fresh chips, and one noting the small portion of chips was huge enough that only half got finished. Fish bites and wings come up close behind, called nice and fresh, though one reviewer found the fish bites a bit oily. Several mention big portions and friendly staff, and a few call the prices fair or cheap. The caveats are mixed. One regular says prices went up while the chips with a chicken order shrank noticeably. Another found the kebab hard and as if it had been sitting a while, and says they would skip it next time. One reviewer left before trying any food after a server answered a question about the sides that normally come with a meal with a sharp "You didn't ask me about that." Another describes a long wait for an order that had been packed in the same bag as a companion's wrap. Happier diners describe eating the fish and chips straight away, and one says guests were well impressed.

“I am absolutely disgusted by how my aunt and I were treated at City Fryer. We both wear the hijab, so it was completely obvious that we are Muslim. Despite this, they deliberately served us haram food, hid that fact, and subjected us to psychological bullying.I ordered a burger and my aunt ordered a wrap separately. The staff packed both items into the exact same bag without telling us. When I asked where my burger was, they lied straight to my face and said it would be ready in "3 to 4 minutes."They made me sit there and wait for 1 hour and 16 minutes for food that was already in our possession. The entire time, the staff were looking at us, whispering, and laughing because they knew exactly what they had done. When we finally asked again after over an hour, they all burst out laughing and told us it was in the same bag the whole time. (I had to wait a couple of weeks to write this just because I have severe anxiety to speak up just know I'm never going there again)”

“I had 6 fish bites , chips and 3 wings.. the fish bites were nice, fresh but a bit to much oil but ok. Chips were so nice and same with the wings. I will deff come back for another visit”

“I won’t be going back there again. To be fair, I didn’t even get to try the food, so I’m not going to lie about that. But the service was extremely rude and cold. No smiles at all, and they really don’t make you feel welcome. When I asked her about the basic sides that usually come with any meal after she took my order, she said, “You didn’t ask me about that,” in a very sharp, dry tone. Like… am I seriously supposed to ask about the basic things that normally come with a meal? Her attitude was very blunt and unfriendly.”
