Mr Chippy
Description
Mr. Chippy has long held a reputation for serving delicious fish and chips, but recent visits reveal a decline in consistency that has left some patrons disheartened. While the ambiance remains inviting and the staff friendly, the quality of dishes like chips often fluctuates, with reports of undercooked portions and bland flavors. Additionally, service-related mix-ups have marred the experience for some customers. Yet, for others, the nostalgic charm and value of their generous breakfast specials still shine through. With hopes of a return to their former glory, many diners remain loyal, ready to give Mr. Chippy another chance.

I visited this restaurant today to get some chips and paid 3 pounds for them in a tray. They looked like they had been sitting around for a while and definitely were not freshly cooked. When I asked about it, the owner explained that the vinegar they were sitting in caused them to look like that. He replaced them for me and the second batch was much better - properly cooked, crispy and golden. I wonder why they didn't serve them like that the first time.
This is typically our go-to place for lunch, however, after eating there for about 20 minutes, I started experiencing stomach pains and had to rush to the bathroom. We didn't receive the correct order; I got extra items that I didn't order, and my partner's order was missing items. It seemed like they had a new employee working as they usually get our order perfect. The quality of the battered sausages has declined in my opinion.
I went to Mr Chippy, one of my favorite fish and chip shops that I often recommend to others. I ordered a small portion of chips, as I usually do, but I was disappointed to find that the portion was smaller than usual. The chips were also unevenly cooked, with some being undercooked. This was not up to their usual standard of generous portions and perfectly cooked chips. I plan to give them another chance soon in hopes that they return to their usual high quality and value for money.
Chips were bland in taste lots of black bits so obviously not cleaned well if your a big person don’t attempt to sit in as there hardly any room to sit between the chair table because they are unmovable, quite upsetting to try and sit down. Restaurants are supposed to be for all not just slim people.
