About Victoria's Plaice
Victoria's Plaice takes cash only, so a trip to this fish and chips takeaway on Slag Ln in Warrington means bringing notes rather than a card. Orders go over the counter with no booking, and the menu stays short at four dishes, led by Fish and Chips and taking in kebabs, including a chicken kebab and a doner. Everything is packed for eating off site, whether that is at home or somewhere else nearby. High chairs are on hand for families with young children who come in to order. Queues build at busier periods, so allowing extra time helps. The shop trades Tuesday to Saturday and closes on Mondays and Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
The chips draw the most comment, and most of it is critical: reviewers describe them as stale and overcooked, brown, hard and dry, or cold and greasy with peel and black spots still on them, with one saying they tasted like lunchtime leftovers reheated. Close behind is the fish, called a tasteless white fish under thick, uncooked batter, and the kebabs, with the chicken and doner both described as dry meat and one chicken kebab likened to cardboard and stone cold. Several also raise slow service, saying even a small order means a long wait inside. Two isolated but serious accounts appear: one reviewer reports mild food poisoning traced to a visit here, and another says the first bite of a large fish tasted of mould. A minority push back, praising friendly staff and the lunchtime special of fish, chips, peas and gravy, with one saying they drive in from another town for it.

How this listing is sourced
- Where the data comes from
- Name, address, hours, contact details, amenities, ratings and review counts come from the business's publicly available profile data — not from the owner and not from paid submissions.
- How it stays current
- Listings are re-checked in batches against their public profile, and anything reported as wrong is corrected at the source rather than patched on the page.
- How it is ranked
- Placement is never sold. Every business on the page is ordered and compared using the same public signals, so an owner cannot pay to move up.
