What Anthony V likes about Arch Fish Shop:
Visited on a freezing evening after a hockey match. Had flake, minimum chips and calamari rings. The calamari rings were truly satisfying, thick, crisp and in no way chewy. We found the flake and chips were very good. Service was good and food prepared fast. Prices are very cheap. They are cash only so make sure you have some folding stuff. View all feedback. What Paula Andy Asia doesn't like about Arch Fish Shop:
Goodness me... that is the absolute worst fish and chips... ever. We thought we would give it a try as it was convenient at the time. The elderly lady serving and cooking was confused and had trouble reading her own writing... everything is pre battered ... the fish was so thin and dry ... the batter was chewy... the chips were completely inedible, so dry. sorry, can't find one compliment. Most of it went in the bin.... View all feedback.
