Customer Review Summary
Chips with curry sauce draw the most praise, described as lovely, with another reviewer calling the fish and chips fantastic alongside a cod goujons special. Friendly staff, quick service and a clean shop recur. Others report fishy, overcooked or dry fish, mushy chicken the children refused, and a wait longer than quoted. One found the mushy peas overly salty.

“Unfortunately the fish was very fishy not fresh and very overcooked. Couldn’t eat it. Kids had chicken was probably frozen it was very mushy and thy wouldn’t eat it. Overall really disappointed used to be lovely. However one of our party had a bug and described it as excellent”

“Had the cod goujons special with a side of curry. the mushy peas were overly salty and I could only bear to eat half of it. everything else (fish and chips and curry sauce) was fantastic. Staff were friendly and service was quick.”
