What User likes about The Market Plaice:
They are truly the best, especially during the pandemic when they even offered delivery services. I cannot praise them enough - they are hands down the best restaurant in the city. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about The Market Plaice:
Not as bad as some may say, but the only standout item was the chips, which were decent. They weren't the freshest and didn't compare to other restaurants in the city. However, the prices were fair and the staff was very friendly. View all feedback.

Friendly staff. Food terrible. Soggy soggy batter, in fact undercooked. Chips tasted like they had been cooked at lunchtime and fried again. Won't return.

Despite a mix of experiences, the restaurant's standout item was the decent chips. Prices were fair and staff very friendly, though not all customers agreed. Some found the fish and chips okay but nothing special, while others labeled it the worst they've ever had. However, there were also rave reviews highlighting the restaurant as the best in the city, especially during the pandemic with additional delivery services. The traditional market outside was praised for its variety and affordability. Overall, the restaurant has stood the test of time, serving excellent meals quickly with ample seating. Visitors were impressed by the light, crispy battered fish and plentiful chips.
