About Ocean Fry
On Sefton Rd in Liverpool, Ocean Fry is a fish and chips takeaway whose menu stretches beyond the fryer to sui mai, satay, and Doner Kebabs alongside the usual chips, curry and rice combo. Orders are taken on a walk-in basis at the counter. Delivery arrives hot, and comes with a free chicken and sweetcorn soup plus prawn crackers included with the order. Portions run generous, and ordering directly through the website brings the food cost down by 10 percent. Some orders come with a handwritten note asking customers to leave a review.

Customer Review Summary
The free soup that arrives with orders comes up again and again, with the chicken and sweetcorn version repeatedly singled out as tasty even when the paid-for wonton soup struck one diner as bland. Close behind, reviewers repeatedly praise the sui mai, crispy chilli beef, and salt and pepper chips, alongside generous portions and food that arrives hot and quick even for diners ordering from Crosby or across town to Walton. Several mention a 10% discount for ordering direct from the website. Complaints are rare but pointed: one reviewer describes chips arriving raw and cold with beef in a satay dish that looked and smelled off enough that they refused to eat it, and another asks that a handwritten note requesting reviews not be included with orders. A separate order had vinegar added despite a request for none. Multiple reviewers note a free soup or prawn crackers accompanying their delivery as a recurring gesture.

“We live in Crosby an we order from here a lot, the food is bang on, never had a single issue with any of it, and even though we’re a little bit out of the way, the wait time for delivery is always less than what you expect it to be. Honestly, if you want a nice chippy/pizza place, then OceanFry is the place to order from, not overpriced and nice hot foot. See you soon for our next order again guys!!”

“Was delivered only 10 minutes after ordering online which was very weird. Rice was cold and didn’t taste right. And the chips were literally raw and cold. Definitely warm ups but the worst was the beef satay. The beef had a weird jelly coating and the juice was not even brown it was gray. Didn’t trust the beef so I never ended up eating it since it looked and smelt rotten. Would never order from here again and would give 0 stars if possible”

“You sent food i dont like for free. The sight and smell of soup makes me puke. Stick to delivering the food I've actually ordered. Its not appropiate to leave handwritten notes asking customers to give you a review. One star for service and atmosphere because i wasn't in the shop. Good portion sizes though.”

“Order arrived in a very timely manner, I got sent a free soup to try alongside my order which was thoughtful and delicious. The food was lovely and hot, however I did find the wonton soup I ordered slightly underwhelming and a bit bland in taste, however the chicken and sweetcorn soup that was sent as a freebie was lovely. The sweet and sour chicken is very generous with the chicken and pineapple chunks which was great.”
