Best PlaceJuice Reviews

We placed a large order this evening and it was excellent value. Brilliant portions and everyone very much enjoyed what they had, my toddler absolutely loved the big flakes of cod. Also one of the best pasties I have ever tried. Very helpful staff on the phone and order was ready in good time and all hot and very fresh. This was our first time trying and we will be back!


The fish here never disappoints and the steakettes have to be recommended. The shop has to be commended too for giving out 'free' chips when you order a single item. As everything is cooked to order you will have to wait but it ensures the food is fresh and hot and that's what it's all about.
It's a take out that's why Atmosphere is just average, good food quick service ????
I placed an order and ordered a gravy chip which ended up costing me £6.70. Input in the notes requesting gravy as it
Wasn’t in the choice of sauce a s ended up with a chip with no sauce and when I phoned I was charged £3.30 for a tub of gravy . I am not impressed at this at all . Really bad service .
I tried this place for the first time tonight and believe me when I say I will be back. I ordered a pastie which was absolutely scrummy and the chunky homemade chips that came with it were totally fantastic I could have ate a bucket of them. Superb value friendly helpful staff. You are awesome. ????
Delishish food, friendly staff and fast.
Just yesterday I was sat on a bus which was waiting it's time in Gibsons Ln, Ards
(Donaghadee - Belfast via Newtownards).
I noticed this chippy opposite and as was a little hungry, I eyed up the lunch-time specials advertised in the window of this chippy.
Temptations got too much, so decided to get off bus to take advantage of such a special, and so would get the following bus onto Belfast & eventually Coleraine.
There were 2 staff on duty, a young man on the counter, & a lady who was frying.
Both were most pleasant with me and other customers.
So anyway I ordered a cheeseburger & chip special with a 500ml bottle of fanta lemon.
Cost was £4.80(turned out to be such a bargain).
After around 7-8 minutes they cheerfully gave me my food to enjoy.
Wow - enjoy I certainly did!!
I sat on a street bench just around the corner and got tucked in.
Chips were roasting hot so got stuck into my cheeseburger first.
Was impressed with the burger, the dressing and even the tasty bun..then the chips omg -
Had noticed they looked just like chunky cut chips I used to get from various outlets when I was a nipper..and the taste????.
Hands down - the NICEST chips I have tasted(since I was about 9, or possibly ever!).
I actually struggled to finish it all as per the very generous portion, but after swilling it down with the welcomed ice cold fanta, I got there.
I then marched back into the chippy and asked the young chap to call his colleague from the back-room.
I could tell they expected a complaint, but their assumption soon changed to joy when I told them that those were the nicest chips I had tasted for decades.
They thanked me for my comments, and I told them I would be posting a truly honest review the next day..so here we are!!
Enough said..so will end by saying - it's very safe to say I am already very much looking forward to my next visit to the Codfather! ????????????????
The problem with telling people how great the cod father is that one stands the risk of huge queues the next time one wants some food
