Rosedale Red Rose

Yes yo do ring there on a Friday night and sometimes cant get through which is mostly expected for us locals, and that is because they are so busy with customers orders inside shop and 12 orders hanging up waiting to be cooked, and it is not a fast food out let like McDonalds, so why is it people expect the country shops to be this

The local fish and chip shop provides beautifully cooked flake. Good hamburgers and prompt friendly service.

From the moment I enter until I leave with my food, the atmosphere is friendly and there are great specials available for everyone.

Both locals and tourists are familiar with Rosedale Red Rose, a fantastic fish and chip shop that offers plenty of seating options as well as takeaway service. The menu has a wide variety of options including steamed, fried, or grilled dishes, all freshly prepared while you wait. The staff are friendly and helpful, willing to assist with any request. I visit this place at least once a week to enjoy their delicious fish, potato cakes, and assortment of drinks and desserts. They have magazines to read while you wait, or you can chat with friends and family. Wheelchair accessibility depends on the type of wheelchair you have, as some may not be able to navigate the step at the entrance. However, the staff are accommodating and will take your order even if you have to wait outside.

It was Friday night and I was looking forward to relaxing, watching the football, and not having to cook. I tried calling the restaurant at 7:30 pm to place an order, but there was no answer. I called again at 7:35 pm with the same result. At 7:40 pm, the phone went straight to a busy line. By 7:45 pm, I still hadn't gotten through. I decided to drive to the restaurant and arrived at 7:50 pm to find workers inside around the counter. Despite a sign on the door saying the shop closed at 8:00 pm, right next to the opening hours at 20:00, the staff seemed unbothered. Two other cars pulled up, saw the sign and the staff inside, and drove off within the brief time I was there. It's understandable if business is slow and the shop shuts early, but to ignore phone calls for 30 minutes while being present at the counter, and then not offering an explanation for closing early is disappointing. This experience, combined with receiving two lamb souvas the other day that were poorly presented and made both myself and my partner feel sick for the next 12 hours, leads me to advise against dining at Red Rose.
