Quick info
About Jim's Golden Fry
Jim's Golden Fry is a fish and chips takeaway on Crag Head Road in Chester Le Street, serving classic fried fish, chips and pizza for collection, with no seating on site. The counter handles walk-in orders placed in person. Because the kitchen covers both the chip shop range and pizza, the queue at peak times can run over an hour and a half, and staff have been known to quote wait times that do not hold. Orders are taken at the counter and paid for there.

Customer Review Summary
Most reviewers describe a letdown, led by greasy, bland food and cold chips. One calls a battered burger swimming in grease, another received unbattered fish, and a third was given salt and vinegar after asking for none, with a refund refused. Others report long delivery waits and no response about a paid order. Two praise friendly staff, and one likes the curry and mushy peas.
