I live locally, so have both eaten in and had takeaway from here several times. A year or so ago, the food was overpriced but just about worth it. It's got increasingly bad since then, going from hit and miss to consistently disappointing.Looking at the reviews I think they must give dine in customers the better food and takeaway get reheated old stuff. Latest takeaway I got from here the chips were somehow a mixture of mostly burnt and soggy, and so greasy. Cod wasn't much better either. I threw away the majority of it, but the bit I did eat left me feeling sick the rest of the night. Kept hoping they'll improve but finally going to give up after this.Unfortunately I didn't take a photo but trust me, looked nothing like the ones from these 5 star reviews on here..

This is a gem of a find, lovely staff, food and ambience. Totally satisfied and when in town will certainly come back.

Fish was OK but quite small. The chips were shocking, dry and tasted as if they were not freshly made.

Best fish and chips I’ve had twice cooked chips and cod loin with the lightest crispy batter and home made tartare sauce. Clean and well presented restaurant . Will definitely be visiting again.

Can't see how this has won awards ..Rubbish fish n Chips had better at my local Chippy at half the price , No way that fish was fresh never again bitterly disappointed.

Best fish and chips I’ve ever

Really nice cod loin in crispy-above-average batter (I'm not a batter fan, but I know a nice bit of batter when I see it), tasty bhuna sauce, ok'ish chips but chippy chips would definitely be an improvement. Bread roll was ok but could have come from a local supermarket - it was nothing special. The plates were too small, but then, the table was small too. Our waiter Dan did a good job and is worth a mention.Atmosphere 3* is above average but not 4*. Atmosphere is elusive - some places have it, others don't quite make it.

First time visit, but won't be the last. Really enjoyed

Myself, my husband and daughter ate here on 29th January, 2024, only people there. Tiny, thin fish in lots of batter and twice fried greasy chips, left a lot on plate, a glass of wine each £79 asked to take drinks upstairs as waiter had another job to go to and we hadn’t finished! Never again!

over priced for what you get. I think they management think Cirencester is London or something lolWheelchair accessibility: There isn't any.

We arrived at the end of a very busy service. We were warned that there would be a half hour wait and that estimate was about right. The restaurant was very clean despite being so busy. The food was exceptional, it's not cheap, but it was worth it. There are quite a lot of "upsell" items on the menu, so you need to be a bit careful if the bill isn't going to get inflated. Our server Dan was exceptional.
