Customer Review Summary
Reviewers are sharply split, and most complaints center on delivery that arrives late and cold. Several describe long waits after being told the order was on its way, one reporting it arrived hours after ordering, and food that came stone cold, with some items missing. One says the shop would not resolve it, and another says they were hung up on when asking to cancel and get a refund. Dishes get criticized too: raw fish and batter, burnt chips, soggy battered sausage, a greasy pie, soggy scampi, and hard chips with nasty sausages. One reviewer felt the fish was hake rather than cod. A takeaway customer found two jumbo sausages and chips barely warm, though they called the portion a good size and the prices fair. On the positive side, one diner praises sausage, chips and gravy, and another calls the fish huge with great offers. A delivery customer got a fresh, hot fish and chips meal with extra fish, and others describe friendly, polite staff and a clean shop.

“Absolutely shocking. Went in ordered and when I got home the food was awful. It wants hot. The sausages was nasty, hard chips. My son’s pie was greasy. Husband had a kebab says it was ok. It was a waste of money definitely won’t go back and don’t recommend”
