It’s probably now the best chippy around , fish is beautiful , chips on point and the lovely lady behind the counter makes for a great chippy , miles better than the big name in town , night and day compared to that tourist

The chips were over cooked, and the portion size was ridiculous. The large box of chips was no more than a third full, and could have easily fitted into the regular box.

I had the freshest and tastiest bit of well-cooked Haddock on Saturday night. The servers were super friendly and helpful and I know how hard they work all through the summer. Thank you Chips Ahoy.

Lovely fresh haddock and chips from Chip Ahoy, cooked to order, at a good price. Would highly recommend and will visit again!

Worst chips in the world Why don’t they do something about it as there are so many bad reviews about there chips ☹️☹️ Fish is great

Great tasting food. Freshly cooked. Tasty. And made even better by serving Saveloy sausage.Eat here. It’s better than others in the town.

Was good only seating outside but a lovely cuppa tea. Best we have had from any takeaway, fish and chip was very good

Awful chips!! Plaice and haddock tasted the same … of nothing and how hard is it to make a decent batter not one that resembles cake

We have visited Chip Ahoy on several occasions when visiting Padstow and have always been impressed with the quality. On the latest occasion we were happy with the lovely pieces of cod but very disappointed with the awful chips. Not sure if under new management as John wasn’t there when we visited last week.

By far the worst chips I’ve ever had visited this chip shop on 1st of November 2023 the shop was empty so a little bit confused as normally it’s really busy. But anyway I placed my order for regular chips only to find they charge me three pounds fifty for twenty chips.I’ve been coming to Padstow for about twenty years plus and always brought my fish and chips from here but while I waiting for my order I noticed that the girl who was working in there got a big bag of chips out of the freezer there is no excuse for frozen chips as potatoes are so cheap god knows where the fish comes from maybe a local supermarket total Rip off. Shop elsewhere maybe Rick steins little bit dearer but miles better.
A proper chippy in the centre of Padstow. (Not like Steins place where the posh people go to buy a tiny portion of fish and chips that requires a mortgage to pay). A large fish and chips with mushy peas on top doesn’t require a fancy name to be good. And they are good, they’re bloody lovely! Chip Ahoy - lovely friendly staff with Cornish accents. Perfect.

Excellent quality fish and chips , cooked to order , and quick service time. I ordered a smaller portion for my wife and three large portions for the rest of us. The girls serving were very pleasant and the whole atmosphere was friendly!

Absolutely terrible service and at best below average fish and chips.Price - very expensive considering the quality of the food, you get far better value from Steins.Food - Had far better pretty much everywhere else. The fish was average in size, lacked flavour and the batter was soggy and unenjoyable. The chips were okay, a good size portion but again lacking any flavour and very forgettable.Service - We went this evening for two fish and chips with mushy peas (sold out of mushy peas). In front of us was a large order so we had to wait a while which was not a problem. However once they’d finished serving the gentleman with his multiple boxes of fish and chips, the staff were very clearly inconvenienced and incredibly rude and grumpy with the rest of us left waiting. The miserable woman who served me barely made eye contact whilst grunting at me to collect my order. Couldn’t be bothered to salt and vinegar the food properly, so it all got poured straight onto the fish which was on top, making it incredibly salty, soggy and barely edible. She then threw my order at me without so much as a thank you whilst summoning her next victim for their measly serving also. Our first and last visit to this excuse for a chip shop, will not be back. Do yourself a favour and go anywhere else.

Advertise themselves as being open until 9pm. Just went to the shop at 8.10pm to find they'd shut, even though they had the door open, and I was walking off heard one of them laugh "sucks to be that guy".Won't bother going back to see if the food is better than the attitude..
