Avoid. Avoid. Avoid !!! Worst chippy I have ever been to. The lady was busy on her phone had no time for customers. I ordered a medium fish and chips. The lady gave me a small!! The chips was very dry and hard like stone !! The fish was terrible, and non-existent with the batter also hard and dry as if it was cooked days before.. food tasted absolutely terrible, and everything was cold. I will not be coming again.
Second time I've been on a night out and gone here after and they've robbed me of £12 for chips and curry sauce, they did it another time as well, hope you get shut down for being scammy
Quick and easy, open late. Great for a post west street treat
The food is not bad, but nothing special either. I've ordered online mostly using Uber Eats, but the one time I went to the physical store the staff was a bit rude and generally looked like they couldn't be asked to cook the food I paid for. Decent prices tho, which is good for students.
Seriously poor fish was dry chips where to anaemic to call cooked.

Our family ordered from here, however I ordered a mixed kebab and it arrived with no chicken at all. I wouldn't have minded if we'd made a massive order and I hadn't paid £8.50 for a mixed kebab, but 4 items..... cmon! Won't ever be ordering from here again.
They take advantage of drunk people by charging them more than double, disgusting place and people. Avoid this place.
Best piece of fried fish I’ve eaten for many years bar none. Delicious, although many pissed punters pass through this establishment, and cannot vouch for the quality of food, I was sober, and highly recommend
How on earth can this place stay in business? The staff have a very arrogant take it or leave It attitude and food (if I can call it that that want 's putting straight in the bin. If you wanted to set an example of how to make the worst fish and chips in the world, this place would be the bench mark. Cold half cooked chips in semi-rancid cooking oil, not forgetting to leave every potato eye in place and add a decent pinch of grit to round things off. And now the piece de resistance, oh that way past it 's best fish, that purports to be cod, with that gray and black mushy texture, so thin and oddly tasting. Cover this in soggy, and amazingly greasy uncooked batter and whaler! a dish to die for or die from! Unless you are completly under the affects of alcohol and are deviod of any taste or reason, give this place the widest of berths. Or you can simply throw your money and meal down the drain and cut out the middleman. If there was a zero, rating I wouldn 't have hesitated to award it (and that would have been far too kind!
Awful! cold chips, lots of black chips, miserable staff and pricey too, Brenda's behind the moor is far better!!!

First and last time visiting this place. Really awful food , if you can call it that. Food: 1 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 1
This place isn’t a chippy, it’s a crime scene. The fish was so dry I could’ve used it as a sanding block, and the batter had the texture of roof shingles. The chips were a disgrace — limp, greasy, and somehow tasting of despair. I’ve had better meals out of a hospital vending machine. The service was slower than a dial-up internet connection in 1999. I aged visibly while waiting. By the time my food arrived, I’d lost the will to live and possibly several years off my life expectancy from just inhaling the rancid fryer fumes. Honestly, if Hell has a takeaway, this is it. I wouldn’t feed this to my worst enemy. Actually, I would — because they’d never recover. Service: Takeaway Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1
Lovely staff and great service and amazing food Service: Dine in Meal type: Other Price per person: £1–10 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
Food is not safe, went for a chicken donor after I finished work, I kid you not what I say it but it was hard, cold and a safety risk. Went back the instant I ate it and got a refund, guy didn’t seem shocked or fight the argument and just makes me think it’s not the first it’s happened. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1
