Food is always outstanding! I've been going here for well over 10 years! And I'm still yet to have a bad meal from these guys! Maybe biased, but I believe this is the best chippy around! Staff are amazing. If my waist line wouldn't expand I'd eat here everyday! 😍

Popped in for a large order of fish and chips as had been there before and the food was very nice. As it was busy I ordered my fish and chicken nuggets as I walked in to be sure that it was cooked by the time I was served. Staff always very friendly and polite and the prices are reasonable... especially as I had an extra large haddock which again was very tasty 👍

Lovely chip shop, I asked for something that was going to take a while to cook. Served by lovely but very busy staff. It must be good as customers queued out the door. The food was just what was needed and tasted just as nice.
