Customer Review Summary
Fish and chips is the draw here, with reviewers praising fish cooked fresh to order in a delicious batter and singling out the large haddock, which one says fits two plates. Close behind is the gluten free option, where a coeliac reviewer describes separate utensils and a separate fryer, and another says the place caters for all tastes and dietary needs. Several describe a friendly team and a helpful owner, and one former local says it is still the only chippy they use. Staff manner is the recurring complaint. Two reviewers say the staff do not smile or come across as rude, with one saying they would visit more often if the staff were nicer. A third describes standing at the counter with no prompt to pay, then being asked about payment after a long wait while later arrivals were served, and says no apology followed. One family came in for lunch on Good Friday and called the meal fantastic.

“Ordered, asked for small chips and medium fish due to travelling. I went to pay, no one present and no prompt to pay , staff not looking at customers to take payment, I stood waiting to pay and there was no one there taking payment, so I came to the conclusion you must pay when your food is ready. 30 mins later and multiple people coming in after me getting food and going. I am then asked, have I paid? Which I found bizzare as I had been stood there like a statue. I was hardly waiting for the bus. It came across rude and unfriendly. Maybe it’s because I wasn’t local. If I had paid when I was eventually asked it would have meant a further wait as my order hadn’t been started, as other people who came in after me would have been waiting after me for their food. So it was a case of being forgotten, an apology would have been nice but not received. The person taking the orders shouldn’t be the one cooking the fish etc, the person taking the orders should also be taking payment straight away if that’s your chosen method. If you are doing it as you are you are leaving yourself wide open for situations like this, as you simply can’t take orders, cook and take payment.”
