Quick info
About The Trawlerman
On Old Liverpool Road in Warrington, The Trawlerman works as a fish and chips takeaway, though the kitchen draws its range from Cantonese cooking as well, covering Chinese takeaway staples alongside the battered and fried fish the name suggests. Orders are placed at the counter and the counter runs on cash only, so cards are not an option. The format is built for collection and delivery, with no sit-down service on site, and a wait is common at busier times of the evening. It opens daily, drawing a mix of regulars from the surrounding streets who come for the cross-format menu, from Hong Kong style fast food plates to the more traditional fish and chips.

“Tried the crispy beef in chilli sauce twice. You couldnt put a fork in it. It was hard as anything more like hard biscuit. Rang the second time before ordering to advise of first experience and was told it may just be the batch. Gave it another try and the same. Would not go back a third time thats for sure. Not great customer service or food in my opinion. Can get better for a slightly better price and much better service elsewhere.”
