Customer Review Summary

Chips are what reviewers discuss most, and the verdict is mostly negative. Several describe them as hard, soggy and greasy, or as old chips that had seen better days, and one calls a small portion a tiny scoop of chips. One reviewer found them crisp and tasty, with delicious curry sauce and a peri peri option, and another praises the fish and chips, doner kebab, mushrooms and burger. The complaints beyond chips are specific: a battered sausage with undercooked, greasy batter, a Cornish pasty filled with mush, halloumi that tasted of fish, and a chicken kebab that arrived cold and tasted poor. One reviewer got a fish and chips order with extra salt and vinegar exactly right once, then found the repeat order overloaded with salt. A few say the shop was once much better, noting the mini fish is now lost in the tray. Friendly, helpful staff appear in the positive reviews. One reviewer says a promised free second battered sausage never arrived.

    “Chips tasted like they had been cooked in cold oil, so soggy and greasy. Battered sausage the same very undercooked batter and dripping in grease. Sfc was nice and moist but the rest was fit for the bin. Such a shame a once great chippy is so poor now .”
