Had two fish one chips and a curry sauce.fish was very small for price and was dry like it had been under the heater for too long. chips looked like it was all they had left and couldnt be bothered making fresh.curry sauce was lovely only they have reduced portion size.used to be best around but me and wife said we would not go back after today. Oh and i asked if they had any cakes to be told 15 mins and it was only 12.45.need to get back on track

A Bradfordian living in Norfolk for the past 18 years, I love visiting my family in Yorkshire and always try to have my "fix" of Bradford fish and chips.I have tried many of the local chippies but have found Towngate to be the friendliest in the local area. Most importantly though, I believe they also serve the best fish and chips too.I have also discovered that, having recently been tested and found to have slightly raised cholesterol, I have been able to check the nutritional values of Towngate's food on the West Yorkshire Analytical Services website. So I can now enjoy my fish and chips but still keep my saturated fats downIt's a win win for me.Well done Towngate Fisheries.Dietary restrictions: Fish can be poached instead of battered for those with wheat intolerance.

Visited a couple of weeks ago, my first impressions were good! Spotlessly clean and the food looked great BUT when I tasted the fish & chips I found them very bland almost like the dripping they’d been cooked in had been completely neutralised of flavour? Certainly not the depth of flavour I’ve become accustomed to when visiting PROPER Yorkshire chippies. Vastly overpriced in my opinion, if you want superior quality and value for money get thi sen to the Jolly fryer in Huddersfield youl struggle to find better!

Excellent food, beautifully clean shop and one of the few fish shops that still cook in beef dripping.

You will not find a chippy better than Towngate, super clean, prices are decent, really nice staff and obviously the food is amazing and good
Come here quite often food usually very good but the fish tonight was absolutely wonderful.

Excellent quality traditional fish and chips. It’s worth knowing that Summer evenings are ideal for eating food from Towngate Fisheries at the adjacent New Inn

This used to be an excellent chippy. I've used this chippy for over 10 years, but recently the standard of the food and portion size has fallen. The recent visits the fish was tiny, including the special (large fish), which was not too dissimilar to a regular fish and the chips were just a light sprinkle. After several poor experiences I've use another local chippy now, who offer better quality, portion size and value.

I happened across Towngate Fisheries by accident while visiting Idle on business. What a little gem. I haven’t had better fish and chips and look forward to visiting Idle and this chippy once again.
Excellent food and service reasonable
