This is the best fish and chip shop in the area! All the food is fantastic, the staff is helpful, and the delivery is quick. Keep up the great work!

This restaurant really needs to improve how they prepare and cook their food. Compared to other fish and chips places I've been to, this place is definitely at the bottom. The batter on the fish is too thick and there is not enough actual fish, making it a disappointing experience. I have tried their food multiple times but have never been satisfied. I hope they can turn things around, but I cannot recommend this place when there are much better options available. My rating reflects the significant improvements they need to make in order to compete in the fish and chips market.

I recently tried a kebab at this restaurant and it was terrible. The chicken was burnt and the salad was unappetizing. I wouldn't even give it to my dog. Complete waste of money.

Nice, clean takeaway. The staff are friendly, the food is good and it's reasonably priced.

Located in Penicuik, this restaurant has garnered mixed reviews lately, signaling a potential decline in quality. While dishes such as fish and chips continue to impress with fresh, light batter, other offerings, like the Chicken Shawarma and mixed kebabs, have drawn criticism for being lackluster and poorly assembled. Service-wise, there are highlights, with some patrons appreciating accommodating staff and efficient delivery. Despite the inconsistent food quality and a less than ideal dining atmosphere—primarily due to excessive air conditioning—loyal customers still find reasons to return, drawn by the restaurant's commitment to customer satisfaction and a few standout menu items.

I have had a pizza out here a few times and the pizza was good but tonight I ordered a large mixed Kebab and it came in individual containers for you to build it yourself but the wrap it came with was very small and could not hold much meat in it at all. I was disappointed with it tbh. I expected it to come pre made. Service: Delivery Meal type: Dinner

When I ordered a roll without the roll! did not mean, was meant! Sausage came alone what a sad little man! The penny cook farewell they don't take me!

Tonight we used the takeaway for fish and chips, because we were looking for a good chippy near our new house. we didn't find it. I went in about half of five. it wasn't busy, not a good sign. at that time on a Friday. I ordered fish and chips and was served immediately. When I came home, we opened the boxes and found fish in the duck, which were like granite. obviously the fish was cooked and then stored in the hot display, dried, so that it was practically unusable. the fish tasted not good, but that was not necessarily due to its quality, but its handling. we ate most of the fish and threw away the diligent. the chips were good the first and last.

They usually order a lot from here, but the calzone I had just I was disappointed. there was hardly thunder meat in it and the broth was hard tile 0 taste of it all. I want to eat more. money wasted

There is only one thing that the sit down eating experience and that is the excessive air conditioning. I was here about 4/5 times, and it's always in vain. it is a pity because eating, service and prices are excellent....As about a partition between eating and taking away and then some heating. will still be back, only my winter wool on.

We used to visit this place regularly when it was called Little Italy and it did not disappoint. The restaurant was separated from the chip shop and it appeared to be successful. However, the restaurant closed and reopened by being integrated into the chip shop...area. The food since then has been pretty average and it never appears to be busy and lacks any atmosphere.
