Consistently good food although sometimes you are waiting longer than you'd want to.Josè the owner is always very friendly and will always say hello.The doner meat and chips is excellent!My only complaint would be their sausages are of the very cheap catering variety.. I personally wouldn't mind paying extra for a decent quality sausage.

Lovely fish and chip shop in Southdown. Helpful and polite staff and a great range of food on the menu. Also great value for money.

Update: Went last night and the chips were sublime and I came away with everything I ordered. Upgrading my rating.

Ordered food but it didn’t arrive. Called them around 20 times and they didn’t answer or hung up. Rubbish service. Do not use.

Good chips, and open later than other chippies!

Awful unfriendly service and the system doesn’t work . They take your order , you pay and then wait . So you expect the queue of ordered to be processed in order - no chance - totally random and frustrating . Then the order is repeated cos they can’t trust/read the receipt . You cannot rely on the fact that you will get what you ordered.Quality is average - skin on all three fish and not very meaty . Chips soft , mushy peas are good .Not recommended particularly if they are busy.

Absolutely shocked after ordering tonight. I tried tonight and last night to order a delivery and on the checkout on their website it read sorry but no more orders can be taken. I rang them to double check and the woman told me it's OK there end, clearly not if it was telling me that on ordering.She took my order for delivery and said she'd send me a link to pay for it. I had to ring and ask where the link was being sent too. It had just then been sent by text so I paid for the order.The food arrived and they asked my husband at the door if it had been paid for, which I replied yes I've paid for it on the link sent.The food arrived and a curry roll was missing and the savaloys were hard and like rubber. I rang them to inform them and my god did she have an attitude! She wanted to argue with me after I complained about the savaloys being hard and like Rubber. she said I only ordered 2 vegetable ones. I listened back to the order and I clearly said 1 vegetable and 1 curry after she told me they don't just do curry ones and told me they're chicken and curry. So after ordering the 1 vegetable and one curry I said make it 2 vegetable ones too. I didn't say don't bother with the curry one but she took it upon herself to cancel the curry one and just stick the vegetables ones through. I replayed the order and it's exactly what I said. Then she told me she didn't charge me for delivery so that makes up for the savaloys. 1. It wasn't my fault you forgot to add delivery as you're the one who sent me the bill to pay and 2, why does that make it OK that the savaloys I ordered covered them not adding delivery! I won't ever order from here again until they get staff in that don't want to blame customers for their mistakes.Absolutely shocking service. You can only guess where I'd want to stick those Rubber savaloys after this ?
Atmosphere in a chippy is hard to star. But the food is good the people are friendly.

1) Food Quality (4/5) - Fish is fresh and flaky with crunchy batter, chips are fluffy, other items ok 2) Food Range (5/5) - Fish, pies, burgers, kebabs, chicken - all done acceptably. And they have saveloys! 3) Service (3/5) - Friendly enough, can be very slow on occasion, even if order in advance 4) Atmosphere (3/5) - Ok, usual chippy set up, air can feel a little oily 5) Value (4/5) - Food is fairly priced, yet quality remains acceptable 6) Overall Verdict (4/5) - A traditional chip shop serving decent fare across a broad range of products for a fair price 7) Got to try... Battered fish (obviously), saveloy, mixed kebab

Delicious fish & chips!!! The fish was perfectly crispy on the outside and beautifully flaky on the inside. The chips were very nice too. Although we ordered fish and chips only, we were surprised at the selection of other food! The service was quick, staff very friendly. We will be returning for more! Thank you Skippers!
