Best fish and chips takeaway in Carlisle by aLong shot and very well priced.
Brian Muir
Fontana’s fish and chip shop was a find for us many years ago while travelling south of the border heading on holidays. When you see somewhere like this with a long (Zigzag) queue you can expect the grub to be good and it doesn’t disappoint. Stopped here last night after running an errand to Carlisle and had the fish and chips, more like a whale supper tbh. Portion of chips was enormous, loads under that fish, and too many for me to finish without being gluttonous. I like how they name the trawler the fish was caught from. Bit of a wait to be served about 10 minutes but worth the wait if you are calling. Oh, and only £7.50 cheaper than back home.

It's going downhill. Sometimes it feels like you are inconveniencing the staff. A bit like they can't wait to shut. It's all cleaned up and ready to go home if you call after 8pm which isn't late for a chip shop. Place is always clean and food is generally good quality. Lots of just eat or uber drivers now maybe yhey don't need walk in customers now.Parking: Often busyWheelchair accessibility: Not really suitable

Delicious fish and chips, very reasonably priced aswell.
For a meal that costs between £7-£8 at shop it cost £13.05 with delivery, would recommend going to shop, I normally pay £12.50 for a Cumberland sausage Haggis large chips curry sauce & 2 bread rolls. The above price of £13.05 was for Cumberland sausage regular chips 1 bread roll & curry sauce??????????

Very good. Large portion sizes. Been great for years. Can be very busy at tea time, always have plenty off staff on though.

Great Chippy, down for the W/End at a B%B, they told us that Fontanas was eeally good and they weren't wrong. There were 2 chippies in between, glad we came to this one?

A very popular chippy serving fresh fish and chips. The battery was light crispy and not greasy. Portion sizes are good.
