My daughter had the fish soup, which was loaded with salmon and cod in a delicious sauce. The garlic aioli and other dip were also tasty. However, the croutons were soft and not very enjoyable, so a chunk of crusty bread would have been a better choice. I ordered the fishcakes, which were unexpectedly large and served with a delicious tartare sauce. Unfortunately, the chips were terrible - the worst I've ever had at a restaurant, and there were far too many of them. If they had fluffy potatoes with a crispy coating, I would have given this place 5 stars. Overall, it was a very reasonable price at £25 for two including drinks. We will likely return, but will probably skip the chips next time.

They kindly still accommodated us and the food was delicious best cod and chips I’ve had for a while. Very fast service,
