  “Best fish n chips I've had in years. Fabulous friendly & quick service. When they saw we we're eating in, they provided "proper" cutlery, napkins and complimentary lovely cup of tea in a mug! Can't speak more highly of them. Doing a roaring, and well deserved trade. Great to see!”

  “The fryery special is worth trying - small fish, chips & mushy peas. Just enough for a meal without being outfaced by large portions. Fish and batter are always good, unlike some other Carlisle chippys which can be a bit variable.”

  “It's the first time at the Fryery for me, this has to be one of the most professional chippies in the country, omg they are so good and the food was delicious. I wish this place was in Stoke, well-done to everyone there, you are doing it beyond others.”

  “The ONLY fish & chip shop in Carlisle using fresh Scottish fish. Absolutely outstanding quality, fair price and speedy service. Just to shed a little light on the pricing folks, they are the ONLY fish & chips shop in Carlisle using fresh, not frozen fish. British fish too from Aberdeen delivered daily. That's the difference in price, Vs others using Frozen imported fillets. ☝️ So a high quality product that is caught by a Scottish vessel on a short trip, processed in Aberdeen, transported by a Scottish logistics company and from sea to plate in as little as 24 hours! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 By comparison much of the frozen is processed on factory vessels in distant waters like Russia (now banned from direct sale to the UK, but is coming in through 3rd countries still), Iceland, Norway and further afield, or even frozen and shipped to Asia to be processed for pennies and shipped to the UK, there is also quite a lot of other species used and passed off as Cod and Haddock too. 1000s of food miles, lost vital money to the UK economy and a lower quality product. Not a dig at anyone, but the reason for size/price differences, particularly after Cod & Haddock quotas have been reduced pushing fresh whitefish prices up, as demand stays the same at the auctions. For what its worth, 90% of British chippy's use frozen imported fish, creating a false perception of bigger poorer quality portions and lower prices vs the fresh equivalent. They are the only plaice I will buy fish & chips, because I know I'm getting the quality I'm paying for, and supporting the British industry from Sea to plate too win, win. 🤷 Supermarket fish is exactly the same too Vs independent Fishmongers. Frozen Vs fresh. It's not expensive, everywhere else is cheap and for a reason....☝️”

  “Really good fish and chips! Even though the chippy was packed one hour before closing, everyone behind the counter kept their cool and was very friendly.”

  “This feels harsh as the food is delicious. However, the Fryery are aware that their neighbours have safety issues due to inappropriate and selfish customer parking. This is the latest example and the driver in question was very abusive when it was highlighted that their back door me was across the adjoins street, it was double yellows and the the sign in the shop window stated not to park on yellow lines. Since the Fryery and its customers are making this a regular occurrence I’ll also be passing complaints on to the Council and Police as there will be an accident there before long.”

  “Has to be one of the best chippies in the UK. Super food, splendid team behind the counter and really well designed. For the first time ever had Lasagne & Chips from a Chip Shop and it must be one of the best I have tasted. Well done to everyone there - a real treat and you can see why it's so busy. A landmark in Stanwix, Carlisle.”
