What andrewparkeruk doesn't like about The Abbey Friar:
Have eaten from here a handful of times over past two years. This evening (31-Oct-2023) fish is pretty lousy. Doesn’t taste like either Cod or Haddock; it is cooked ok, just the flavour is not good Will try somewhere else next time View all feedback. What 680martinc likes about The Abbey Friar:
I recently had dinner at this restaurant and sat in the back cafe area. The service was excellent and the food was really good. I love this place and will definitely be returning. View all feedback.

Abbey Frier, once a go-to for excellent fish and chips, now faces fluctuating experiences. Diners have noted inconsistent food quality, with reports of greasy fish and soggy textures detracting from the once-reliable fare. While some still enjoy the efficient service and convenient takeaway options, frustrations arise from recent changes requiring orders through external services like Just Eat, raising concerns about food integrity. On a positive note, the ambiance and attentive service at the café area keep loyal customers hopeful. While some continue to celebrate great meals, others are exploring alternative dining options.
