What Paige Mews likes about Gills Fry Fry:
I am extremely pleased with my order. The customer service was excellent, and the woman who delivered my order was very lovely. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the hot and tasty pizza I ordered. It was just as it should be. View all feedback. What Terry L Aaron doesn't like about Gills Fry Fry:

Absolutely terrible. Cold hard chips. Greasy fish. Cold donner meat swimming on an oil soaked wrap. What a waste of £22. Waited 10-15 minutes, not sure what for...

In the ever-competitive world of local dining, this restaurant garners mixed reviews. While some patrons rave about the perfectly fried fish and chips, praising both the food and service, others are less impressed, citing oily, subpar dishes and hidden charges. Complaints about a lackluster atmosphere and unclean tables overshadow the positive experiences. However, there are commendations for the value of meal deals, particularly for kebabs and pizzas. Despite the inconsistencies, many agree the restaurant’s potential shines through, making it a hit or miss depending on one’s luck and choice of dish.

Food was amazing as always, huge fan of the new packaging, keeps the fish and chips seperate so they arrived really fresh. Definitely will order again.

‘£7.99 for fish and chips’ but they don’t tell you about the £2.80 service charge you pay for sitting in AND adding £3 each on the fish and chips as well. One o...
