Friendly helpful staff. The best I have found in the area. Reasonable price and good sized portions.


Used this fish and chips shop for years always had a good meal, last few visits the staff & food have been a let down. Portions are quite small and chips not cooked very good, and the place looks grubby, the floor on the customer side was filthy cant says its been cleaned recently counter and perspex screen was also grubby and greasy looking, puts people off. Disappointed to say the least as its on the door step.
The fish is always lovely and tasty . Often busy with small car park at front
Went back here on Friday (10/06/22) as heard the chips had improved. Still not as good as they used to be under Dennis but now the prices have went up and the portion size is way smaller.
What's going on with the chips? Have used this chippy for years as the chips were the best in the area. Crispy outside fluffy inside, now they are more like the rubbish that Leybourne serve. Last 2 times they have been a disappointment, also the girl serving was trying to do too much at once, taking order as people came in, serving the orders that were ready but also having to stop and answer the phone for orders too, meaning she was having to keep asking what people wanted. Might just be that she as new, but have somebody else take phone orders would help.
Excellent chippy. I usually order every Friday for work (Fat Friday), really friendly staff and happy to write weird names on each order for staff members (Alien - lad has a massive head, Caterpillar - takes ages to eat food etc). Food is always superb, fish bite special is a must have! Seriously, one of the best chip shops I've ever frequented. Staff are lovely, credit to the shop.
Lovely fish and chip shop. Can't fault it!
Horrendous experience. I have no idea about the quality of the food as, after a long queue on Friday evening, I was totally blanked by the woman serving and decided to leave. There is no obvious queueing system in place, making it confusing for new customers and an uncomfortable wait. On top of that, the woman serving was shouting loudly from behind her screen to customers while holding open portions of food very close to her mouth. Disgusting.
Food was good and pretty reasonably priced as well, nice and freshly cooked and portions were excellent ????. Editing the review as I rushed it before ????. Definitely going back again
