Customer Review Summary
Fish and chips draw the warmest praise, with reviewers describing fresh, hot fish in lovely crunchy batter and decent portions, plus tasty onion rings and a chicken burger. Several call the staff friendly, helpful and patient, and one appreciates the traditional menu where items are ordered individually rather than as set pie or sausage dinners. Opinion is sharply split, though, and the complaints are specific. One reviewer found the chips hard and undercooked, the curry sauce thick and gritty, and a pie soggy underneath with rock hard edges. Another found the donner meat dry and rubbery. One calls the fish tiny and the child's portion of chips sparse, and says vinegar went on despite a request for none. Others describe rude service, a drop in quality since a change of ownership, and chips running out shortly before closing. One reviewer reports that their young child and husband had food poisoning after a meal. Another received a nice curry sauce but no chips in the bag.

“Culcheth Fish and Grill offers a very good dining experience with tasty food and friendly service. The portions are generous, the fish is fresh, and the grill options are well cooked. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, making it a nice spot for a casual meal. It can get a little busy at times, but overall it’s a solid choice in Culcheth with enjoyable food and good value.”

“Excellent service and honest chip shop. Providing traditional menu options and good portions sizes. Cooked wonderfully. Does not do set menu or value options such as sausage or pie dinners instead it is preferred to be specific with ordering such as individual item combinations to get what you want from a meal. Otherwise very tasty and worth revisiting.”

“Closes at 9 but at qtr to no chips left ... still letting ppl in to que but wteve ppl order in a chip shop ( clue in the title ) is accompanied with chips ! No apology for time wasted, all i got was a filthy look off an old woman. Anyway, hit & miss at best unlike the AWARD WINNING GREEN LANE CHIPPY, LEIGH which really closes at 9 so I missed waiting for nothing. Shabby ! Notice they only responded to 1 review wn it was disputed the fish was cod, can only assume they agree with all the other bad reviews. Avoid this place ... if a decent chippy opened in Culcheth they'd be out of business.”
