Customer Review Summary

Fish and chips are the recurring center of attention, praised by some diners as lovely and plentiful with good sized portions, while other reviewers describe the same order as underwhelming, citing an overdone battered cod with fish that was dried up and chewy inside batter that was too hard and crispy. Portion size and value form the clearest recurring complaint: a goujon supper arrived with just three small goujons and a handful of chips, a chicken fillet burger was described as mostly wafer thin batter with barely any chicken, and a curry chip was charged above the price listed on the menu. Cheesy chips drew similar frustration for having little cheese on them. Two reviewers separately report being served milkshakes that tasted spoiled and smelled off, with one saying staff tasted a replacement and still handed over a shake that was worse than the first. A separate reviewer describes being charged again for a spilled kids' meal without acknowledgment from staff.

    “Very dry chips, not a good portion. £6 for a curry chip when it was advertised on the menu as 5.50. Generally disappointing!”
  • Brenda Duffin
    “Best fish suppers about! Lovely chips and good sized portions. Will definitely be back🙂 …”

    “Got a take away after a long day driving. Initially though food in brown paper bags was very different from back home in England. Need not have worried as fish and chips were lovely and also plentiful.”

    “Went in for the first time yesterday. Had my 2 nieces and nephew with me as had picked them up from school. We had to go to the shopping centre and when we were getting in the car we spotted the chip shop and they were all starving. I went in and ordered 3 x kids meals at £18 and brought them out. My niece and nephew wanted some ketchup so I said for them to come back in with me and put on what they wanted. My 6 year old niece put her chip box on the table with the sauces, reached over and it fell all over the floor. She was so upset and I apologised to both the lady who made and gave us the food and the lady who took the money. Neither looked very happy and I went over and asked the lady who had prepared the food if she could do me another kids meal with my niece stood beside me upset. She said nothing but started to make the food. I went over to the lady on the til and she charged me £6 for another kids meal and as I was collecting the food the lady who prepared the food said to the other ' have you taken for this meal' and the other said yes then she handed my niece the food box when she knew I'd paid for it. There was one other customer in the shop. I have mentioned this to someone many people since it happened and they are all equally as shocked as I was. Magherafelt has a reputation of being a market town and supports a lot of villages and their residents in the surrounding areas where people feel they are part of a community. When things go wrong people come together and help and where the small acts of support or generosity don't go unnoticed. This goes against all that and I don't normally post online but this 'irked' me and not about the money but about a few chips and taking stock of the situation.”

    “Recently bought a chocolate milkshake for £3.75 and was given a milkshake with spoiled milk, the smell was disgraceful. Talked to staff and asked them to check it, came back and told me they had tasted it and it tasted okay; was given another one that was worse than the first.”
