Chips were so dry they disintegrated when you tried to pick them up, and sadly the fish was incredibly greasy and tasteless with very disappointing batter too. The restaurant looks lovely so as passers by we were hopeful but the food does not match the decor unfortunately and for £20 (1 fish and chips, 1 gravy and a can of fizzy pop) not cheap either. Don’t mind paying that for decent food but this let down in all areas.

We came here on a Thursday night and dined in. The food was great and would recommend it.

Dropped in on a late-September Thursday evening around 8ish.Plenty of people in the seating area so that was a good sign.Was welcomed straight away and order taken (Regular Cod & Cheesy Chips and a Regular Haddock & Chips).Was told it would be about 5 or 6 minutes which is good as the fish is cooked to order.Right on time the order was ready.For a regular (large is available) this was a good amount of food and properly filling (especially the cheesy chips) - nothing greasy and some of the best chips I've had in ages.The tl;dr ?Very clean, welcoming, polite staff and food was great and good value.Will we go back - quite probably as they are well positioned at the entrance to Tesco so parking is easy and we enjoyed the food.

We only ordered a large chips to have with our meal at home. Reading the reviews and family recommendations we decided to give it a shot. Unfortunately it was a very small portion for a large and the chips where very dry, not what I was expecting.

Had a brilliant fish and chip meal in the restaurant with good service. The staff was very polite and helpful even though it was busy in both restaurant and in the takeaway. Best fish and chips we've had for a long time. Would recommend to anyone.

Was advised to try this place and didn't disappoint.Perfectly cooked chips,lovely flaky,tasty fish with nice crisp batter. My only little niggle was it wasn't drained longer hence only 4 stars, but we will return.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramped access to Wheelchair friendly toilet.

It was very good service. The food and drinks came out quickly and it was very yummy! Lots of options of food and good portions size.

Surprisingly, poor fish based so near the sea waited for Haddock very skinny little fish meat never quite seen anything like it. If it was a poor pint the landlord would be saying end of barrell not sure how u register a fish as poor.

Disappointing today, Good Friday , we travelled to have lunch here, myself, hubby and daughter. We ordered two lunch specials, asked for an extra plate but was told by waitress that we could not do that? She wasn’t rude but said things have changed, I have a condition and can only eat very little, the waitress was fine but she was very secretive placing our food down. Personally think owners need to be conscious about patrons with medical issues; Food wasn’t the best, batter soggy, chips awful, A Good Friday lunch that wasn’t great sadly.visited so so many times and today was really upsetting/embarrassing; why should anyone with a disability be scrutinised whilst ordering food, No fault to the waitress, manager needs to re think!

Visited on Friday, we were the only people in the restraunt. My wife ordered Fish and peas but did not want chips. The lady said she had to have chips, everything comes with chips. Then said its a set menu. We quietly left. If that's the attitude before they have your money what's it like after? Never been before definitely won't go again. Went to Mr Chips and it was delicious.
