About Ip's Fish & Chips
Ip's Fish & Chips is a Chinese takeaway in Buxton, at 145 Fairfield Rd, that also fries fish and chips alongside its Chinese cooking. Orders for fish and chips are cooked fresh, so the kitchen can serve haddock and chips to order. Salt and pepper chips are also on offer, which gives the menu a second option from the fryer beyond the standard portion. Customers can expect a queue to form while the chips are being cooked.

Customer Review Summary
Most reviewers come for the fish and chips, with haddock and chips and plaice singled out for the quality of the fish, and chips that recall old-style chip shop chips. Several say the food is cooked to order and arrives hot, with one noting it stayed hot on a drive back to a campsite several miles away. Friendly, quick service and fair prices come up repeatedly, and one says staff recognise returning customers. Salt and pepper chips are mentioned as a long-time favourite. The main trade-off is a queue, since chips are cooked properly rather than rushed, though reviewers who mention it don't mind. One reviewer was disappointed after trying the beef and tomato dish following years of enjoying the salt and pepper chips. Another points out the place stays open after 8pm in Buxton, and a reviewer describes locals flocking in for a basic, welcoming room with a wait for chips fried to order.

“Had some really nice chips here. There was a queue waiting for chips to be cooked. But they didn't rush and cooked them properly. Great chippy.”
- Rhiannon Brooks
“Always loved the salt and pepper chips here, thought I’d try the beef and tomato’s, Had stomach ache for 4 days, progressively getting worse”

“This is one of the little local gems of Buxton. Very clean, fairly basic but beautiful and welcoming. I’m still to work my way through the full menu (& I will) but the dishes I have sampled so far have been wonderful. Now I don’t mind a wait especially in such calm surroundings and for good food, it can be busy which is no surprise because the food is cooked with care and absolutely delicious. It’s the place the locals flock to so you know it’s good.”
