Description

The Big Q Fish and Chips has long been a beloved local establishment, renowned for its generous portions and delectable offerings. Many patrons rave about the crispy batter on the fish and the consistently satisfying chips, often regarding it as the best in the area. However, recent feedback indicates a decline in quality, with some customers experiencing dry fish and soggy batter. Service can also be slow, attributed to high demand, though many appreciate the freshness of the food prepared to order. While attitudes among staff vary, the overall pricing is considered fair for a chippy of its reputation.

Ordered through just eat. Waited for a while, cod was cold. And the pictures were ment to be a LARGE chips. Phoned to discuss and was told that a large chips is what was sent without even seeing the pictures. Ruined our dinner as the were not enough chips to go round. Have used big q for years but after tonight our business will be going elsewhere. 2 star rating is only for the quality big q used to have otherwise after tonight it gets a 0.

Have recently been disappointed by the quality of the cod. It has recently been very thin.
