What User likes about The Good Catch:
great fish and the best curry sauce around. their chips can be hit and miss and sometimes slightly understated prices are good and it is amazingly clean .recommend to any one responded in the opposing owner date had just left Saturday and the time was about 7pm. service was fantastic as always, but the chips needed to keep the big work View all feedback.

The fries are very greasy and lacking in salt and vinegar, which makes them a bit disappointing. Additionally, they do not offer curry, which is not ideal for t...

Best fish, chips and mushy peas I've had in years. The fish is so fresh it melts in your mouth. Will definitely go again. A bit confused by the address though,...

Good chippy, I'd even say one of the best in the area. Not quite as good as the legendary Croston chippy in its Hey day, but not far behind. Worth a try

Nestled in the heart of the community, this chippy has garnered a reputation that swings between delightful and disappointing. While the fish frequently earns high praise for its freshness and crisp batter, the chips often miss the mark, drawing criticism for being burnt or tasteless. Despite the hit-and-miss nature of the sides, the generous menu featuring diverse seafood delights and friendly service keep patrons returning. Some lament changes over the years, while others celebrate its enduring classics. With clean surroundings and affordable prices, it remains a go-to for those craving traditional fish and chips, but consistency is key for potential fans.
