At Telford's Codfather chip shop, reviews are a mixed bag, reflecting a range of dining experiences. While some patrons laud the crispy chips, generous portions, and friendly service, others express disappointment over undercooked food and rude staff. The quality of the fish, particularly, has come under fire, with reports of poorly prepared cod. In spite of these criticisms, many customers continue to enjoy the bustling atmosphere and appreciate the restaurant's commitment to serving during lockdown. Overall, the Codfather remains a favored local spot, though a few improvements could elevate its reputation further.
