“service was fantastic, really guy on the till. food was spot on, really really good. definitely will be back! really good value too. the large chips would of fed 3 people and we got chicken chunks and nuggets too and it all came to less than 13 pound which you can't argue with at all. the dog even got some leftovers so we're all happy haha.”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the fish and chips, describing cod and haddock with crispy, golden batter that arrives fresh and piping hot. Curry sauce comes close behind, called a nice surprise, hot and tangy, and looking home made. Chicken nuggets, chicken chunks and onion rings also get mentions, along with pineapple and squid from one reviewer. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly and quick, and one reviewer says the shop cooks a tiny piece of fish on request for a relative with a small appetite. Value comes up too, with one family saying large chips would have fed three people. The caveats are specific. One reviewer found the chips warm and cooled before finishing a large cod and chips, and another, noting new management, reports soggy batter on haddock, watery curry sauce and tasteless mushy peas. One reviewer says the shop is busy, and orders were made fresh within a short wait. Another reviewer mentions leftovers going to the dog, and the closing detail is that tiny portion of fish cooked regularly on demand.
