Quick info
About Lingwood Chippy Ltd
On Norwich Rd, Lingwood Chippy Ltd is a fish and chips takeaway serving a menu of 35 dishes, with cod as one of the mainstays. Sausages and burgers come from a butcher's rather than arriving pre-packaged, and food is cooked fresh to order rather than held under a lamp. The fish is served battered, with the skin sometimes left on underneath. Orders are taken at the counter, walk-in only, with one staff member cooking and another handling service. It opens Tuesday to Saturday for evenings only, staying closed on Mondays and Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers split sharply on the fish, and the cod draws the most complaints: several describe skin left on under the batter, little fish inside, and a batter that was pasty, with the fish itself oily and gooey. Sausages are mixed. One reviewer praises the butcher-supplied sausages and burgers over the usual cardboard style, while another found a battered sausage falling out of its batter with a thick, chewy casing. Chips are also divided, with one mention of large portions against reports of soggy and even raw chips, and two reviewers who say their small or large order came up short. Waits recur, including one who stood around 17 minutes without being acknowledged, and others call the fish cook rude. One reviewer reports sausages that looked slightly pink, and says staff explained they temperature check every sausage, then refunded the whole order and cooked a free large chips and large cod.

“This place is great. We went there earlier today, and when looking at the sausages they appeared to be slightly pink. We called them up and spoke to Andy, who was excellent. We drove back to the store and spoke personally with Andy, who reassured us that they temperature check every sausage that gets cooked, and that this was an issue with the butchers that supply their sausages. He assured us that we wouldn't become ill from them, as they were checked to be the correct temperature, and they were just a different cut of the meat. Andy gave us a full refund for the entire order, and cooked us a free large chips and large cod to sweeten the deal. Andy showed us their book, and showed us that it would be frozen to show to the correct people and ensure that the correct process was followed. From that story, I can't give them anything less than a 5 star, the service was incredible. Thank you Andy :)”
