Best F and C in that area for miles. And scraps!!! Sit outside on the seats in the High Street.

Poorly trained staff, who don’t listen when you place an order as they’re too busy speaking to other folks.Car crash Level service where you walk out questioning why you went in there - need to train staff to repeat order, qualify they have the right order and LISTEN.Clear staff had little product knowledge and definitely not what you’d look for in a good standing fish and chip shop.**edited**Should note that the representative from the company chose to identify a staff member I didn’t. Having assessed chip shops nationwide for national competitions my comments are based on the whole experience and reflected the failure of management to correctly train and support Jnr staff.However, shop operations as a whole were weak, presentation of food does not meet industry good practice, provenance of suppliers were not on display.

Expensive compared to other local fish and chip shops and really poor quality fish….dry and not meaty flakes. We threw most of the fish away.

Went in tonight as we were passing through rothwell. I'm not one to try new places as I'm kinda fussy with how my foods cooked, but omg, Nicole cooked my fish to perfection. Great portion sizes, not bad price. I'll definitely be back

An unpleasant experience today regarding very rude staff. The woman serving me didn’t smile once, i asked if I could have a carrier bag & was expected to pay the 10p on card.. all for a flimsy carrier bag that’s not worth a penny! I then asked to put my own sauce on my food and she rudely said no due to covid as she didn’t want me touching the bottle.. yet I had accepted food trays touched by staff that were not wearing gloves! So I was forced to pay 95p to buy sachets instead. My 6 year old son even commented on how ‘mean’ the staff were.Read the other reviews about the staff, it seems it’s a common problem with this place & I suspect the reason for such a low customer satisfaction rating. Awful place, There’s a much nicer chippy on the same road a bit further down, I would recommend going there instead, the staff and food are much nicer(Please see snotty reply from owner as expected.. she seems to do this to most customers that dare leave a negative review)

This is the worst fish I have had in a long time, completely dried out as if its been sitting all afternoon and not cheap either. Why not give the customer freshly cooked fish? The chips were average and parsley cakes were freshly cooked.

This is probably the best fish shop in the Rothwell area. The staff are very friendly and helpful & the price is very reasonable. There are some benches opposite & on fine weather days it is a great place to sit and eat there.

Very dissapointed!! Ordered fish and chips x2 and small fish and chips x2 when i got them home and opened them i couldnt tell the difference between them all. The chips were literally potato skins filled with oil !! The staff looked miserable like they hated their job, but to be fair i can imagine they deal with alot of complaints. Curry sauce had zero taste/flavour. And it was more a case of hide and seek finding chips underneath the mountain of scraps. Will not be going here again !!!

Had fish and chips last Friday and they were horrible. Chips over cooked and all bits, felt like they had been refried from the day before. They also had a nasty stale oil after taste. Fish wasn’t great either so will not be returning.
