Quick info
About Halfway Chippy
Payment at Halfway Chippy is cash only, so it pays to arrive prepared at this family-run fish and chips takeaway on Belvoir Rd in Coalville. Fish is cooked fresh to order and the chips come out hot, with portions on the large side. Alongside the fryer range sit fishcakes and curry sauce, plus a plain and a battered sausage among the cooked stock held in the display cabinet. Doner kebabs are on the menu, though there is no chicken version. Orders are taken on a walk-in basis at the counter, with no reservations. The shop opens Monday to Saturday and closes on Sundays. Parking is limited to on-street spaces nearby.

Customer Review Summary
Fresh, hot chips and fish cooked to order are what most reviewers return for, usually alongside massive portions and a friendly family behind the counter. A fishcake with chips and curry sauce gets praise, and the donner kebabs are called the best quality meat one diner has had, though another notes there is no chicken option. Service is described as lovely and polite, with one reviewer finding the young woman at the counter rude at times. Value splits opinion. Several call it good value, while one reviewer finds the prices extortionate compared with other local chippies. The sharpest complaint comes from one diner whose chips had a funny taste and tiny nylon strands, and whose battered sausage was hard and chewy like leather, with oil draining through the paper bag onto the van dashboard. Others describe the shop as like stepping back to the 60s, and the fish as consistently good.
