Quick info
About Fishermans Catch
Fishermans Catch is a fish and chips takeaway in Scunthorpe, with kebabs on the menu alongside the fried fish. The fish and chips special is served with either curry sauce or mushy peas, so the plate can be finished two ways. A sausage special comes with Chinese curry, and the chip butty puts chips inside a bread bun. The shop is at 15-17 Bottesford Rd, and drivers can use the car park just behind the shops.

Customer Review Summary
Reviews split sharply over the fish and chips. Supporters point to the fish and chip special with curry sauce or mushy peas as a bargain with a plenty-sized portion, and describe friendly staff, quick service and food that is cooked well and tasty. One reviewer enjoyed a sausage special with Chinese curry, and another called the steak pie good. Critics describe fish that was dried up and very old, chips that were dry and tasteless, a battered sausage that was rock hard, scampi they felt was poor value, and jacket potatoes served cold and hard. Several say portions have shrunk, with one noting a chip butty barely gets enough chips to fill the bun, and another finding a microwaved pie soft and soggy. Some call the prices too high. One delivery order arrived very late after three chase calls.

“Our preferred chippie in Scunthorpe, staff friendly, food cooked well and tasty. Parking in carpark just behind the shops”

“The price is amazing! I have no idea why some say it’s expensive! £7 for a fish & chip special with a curry sauce or mushy peas BARGAIN. Look at the portion size too, plenty! The London prices are about £20+ so it’s amazing to get such good quality food at this price. Really lovely staff too, very quick service also. I Frequently go here when I’m back I highly recommend.”

“Average at best, the food is very overpriced, I prefer Kingstons for quality and value. It was nearly £7 for sausage chips and peas. You really need to choose good prices over hig profit, fish and chip shops used to serve the community not there own pockets!!!!!!!!!!”
