Quick info
About Princess Fisheries
Fish comes ordered by size at Princess Fisheries, a long-running fish and chips takeaway on Pontefract Lane in Leeds, so customers choose a big fish or a small fish to match their appetite. Battered fish with a portion of chips is the main order, and gravy and curry sauce sit alongside on the menu, with tea to drink. Service works from the counter, with the team taking orders at the fryer as the queue moves, so there is no booking, just walk in. Orders are wrapped in paper for eating off site. High chairs are kept for families with young children ordering at the shop. It trades Tuesday to Saturday and stays closed on Mondays and Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
The complaints are specific. One reviewer found the fish burnt and the chips underdone and yellow on a return visit, another says a big fish order has more than once come out as a small fish, and a third described a dry fish wrapped in paper, a barely battered sausage, greasy chips, below average gravy and tiny portions of curry sauce. That reviewer also said the fryer was hard to hear, the young server asked for help every couple of minutes, and the tea lid tasted and smelt funny.

“We love this fish shop and have been coming hear years , the shop is well loved and is a massive part of our community the owner and his assistants are always really friendly and I’ve never had a bad experience , the fish and chips always been nice reasonably priced the prices have gone up a bit but it still worth every penny. We’ve another fish shop in the area and I’ve had that’s a few time and it no where’s nears as nice.”

“Found on google and decided to visit. Looks a bit like a brothel (I can’t lie). Fryer trying to speak to customers but couldn’t hear him (he either needs to speak louder or leave service to server). People behind us in the Que was served first (probably because we was young?!). Server was young, didn’t have a clue and asked the fryer for help every 2 mins. Tea tasted fine but lid tasted funny, smelt funny too. Reasonable prices, very cheap to be fair! For the price can’t complain at the quality but if you prefer quality then go somewhere else tbh. As for the food, sausage was barely battered, chips average but greasy, fish dry & paper wrapped. Gravy below average, curry average & tiny portions of sauce.”
