What User likes about The King's Plaice:
visited king’s plaice on 26.9.21 for the first time I have eaten there. I was satisfied with the meal of fish and I had. the fish tasted freshly cooked very humid and crispy the chips are also good. the personal was courteous and attentive and there are toilets inside for customers. worth visiting when they are in southport. View all feedback. What 754jeffreyb doesn't like about The King's Plaice:
Dreadful; sausage dinner ordered, it cost £6.79. The receipt was for chips sausage gravy no peas. I asked why it cost so much and why there were no peas, they didn’t know what a “dinner” contained from a chippy! Told them to keep my pension money as they needed it more than me. Killing Southport with your profiteering! Never again will I go there. View all feedback.

King’s Plaice has recently garnered mixed reviews, reflecting a shift in both food quality and service. While some diners express dissatisfaction with poorly cooked meals and confusing service, others praise its crisp, freshly prepared fish and chips. The ambiance has been described as inviting but occasionally marred by a lack of cleanliness and attentive staff. Despite experiencing recent hiccups, many patrons fondly remember the restaurant's past charm and affordability, particularly for seniors. As it stands, the establishment showcases the potential for delightful meals but must address its service inconsistencies to regain its once-stellar reputation.
