We got the munch box this evening and the food was absolutely delicious. The salt and pepper squid was definitely a family favourite and the chips were definitely the best I've had from a local chip shop. Fresh and tasty, we'll definitely be coming back again soon.

The service was very poor so as the attitude of the girl serving me. Will never buy again from them. Felt as if l my money was not good enough. Please ensure you never over charge customers

What's the point in pre-ordering when you have to wait half an hour after collection time? Also available on Uber eats aswell as busy with walk ins. Can't cope! Poor show... Then to reply to my review and call me a liar. I arrived at 6:30pm and was sat in my car (around the corner) for just over 30 minutes waiting for a friend to collect the order I'd booked at 6:30pm and was taking straight to a friends just down the road. I didn't reach them until 7;15pm. You work it out. At least own your mistakes. Don't come back with false facts. It's a bit embarrassing and I wouldn't have needed to write a poor review in the first place. Really disappointing....

The first time we bought fish, pea fritters and chips here, the food was excellent, first rate, the fish was cooked perfectly, the batter light and crispy, the chips and pea fritters delicious. Unfortunately, on the second occasion, the food was very disappointing. The batter on the fish was undercooked, soft and greasy. Suspect the chips were from lunchtime, definitely not as good as the first visit.

Wait was far too long and girls serving weren’t interested in customers whatsoever. They were more interested in each other and service was poor. Food average and portion sizes not great.

It's really hard to find a good chippy now, too many Turkish people taking over fish & chip shops and a lot of them don't seem to know how cook food thoroughly. These guys are not Turkish, it's the first time I've been at this place and their food was absolutely EXCELLENT, will definitely return anytime I'm in this area.

We have been using 1st Quay since moving to Purbrook 5 years ago and have NEVER been disappointed with the quality of the food or service. I discovered yesterday that they offer a home delivery service. I was able to easily order and pay for our food online with a £2.50 delivery charge.Our food which was delivered by a friendly young man, was hot and, as always, fresh and delicious. Thank you 1st Quay for providing this fantastic service, especially during these uncertain times.

My cousin and I were in the area as we came over from London to buy a bike and decided to have fish and chips. We did a quick search on Google and 1st Quay came up so we thought let's go for it. We were immediately surprised at how busy they were but that didn't put us off, it just indicated that this place must be great. Initially the staff weren't that engaging but as mentioned they were busy and we understood the situation. Anyway we ordered medium cod and chips. The wait wasn't too bad but we knew that our order will be fresh. Gladly paid the money, noticed that no tissues or forks were provided but never mind and off went to sit in our car to tuck in. My oh my we weren't disappointed, the cod was cooked to perfection and the batter...... while writing this review I can almost still invoke the great taste. The portions were awesome, glad we didn't order the large cod but even the medium was generous. Overall we were really happy with the food. I highly recommend this place, one of those hidden gems. Thanks guys at 1st Quay for providing us a great meal but please talk more and smile more.

Sorry for the late review Had to wait for grandson to show me. I came in last Tuesday I tried to order via the website but being an elder I couldn’t so I rang the shop and hoped they could help. A young man answered the phone and was very helpful he took my order and told me a time which was best to collect . I came down and I was not disappointed with the whole corona situation I thought it would be hard work as this is the first time we had been out. I believe his name was ashley he was an amazing young chap cooked our dinner to perfection then showed us how to use the website being an old person we can hardly use the phone. I just want to thank him and the team for the amazing fish and chips and having the patience he gave to us we are returning every Tuesday and look forward to more great food thank you.

I’ve been using 1st Quay for over a year now and have found it to be the best fish and chips around. The fish is always nicely cooked and the chips are top quality (not loads of bad ones like you get in a lot of chippy’s). Well done chefs.I read a review that moaned about the staff being moody.....WRONG. I have always found the counter staff very friendly and welcoming. They are also very efficient, even when they are really busy. Unfortunately, I don’t know young ladies names or I’d give them a mention.Well done to the owners/managers...and keep doing what you’re doing.

We have probably been using this take away for the last 8 months. Previously, we always had sit down at Mother Kelly’s, but since my elderly parents have become less mobile, I now get takeaway.I think it is fair to say, we have never had a bad meal.Fish is always cooked fresh, so piping hot and chips are very good.The opening times are also very convenient to us.The portions are generous and served in nice cardboard boxes, so no washing up for me!

Pesco y patatas fritas aproximadamente una vez cada quince días y no soy fanático de las patatas fritas.Sin embargo, este lugar cambia eso.Es realmente de primera clase. Las patatas fritas no se vuelven blandas, el eglefino era excelente y crujiente y el servicio es bueno. Claramente clientes bien reconocidos.Vale la pena ir la distancia extra para visitar. Ah, y hacen descuentos para personas mayores que dudo en usar, ya que todavía creo que tengo 40 años.

We have used this fish and chips shop for many years but found of late that chip portions are inconsistent and they often fill a box with large chips when the fish is inside the box and therefore less space whereas separate portions are bigger. Please get the consistency as the food is great.

We thought we would give this place a try for a change as there were so many good reviews. We ordered a selection of meals for our family take away evening. We collected the food (so no delays with delivery). The mixed kebab meal was thoroughly disappointing. The quality of the meat was average at best and the meal was cold with small portion size for the £14 paid. We paid for a side of halloumi which cost £3 and received 1 slice, which was also cold. The pita wraps were okay, but again only lukewarm. Not good value for money and would not return.

Ordered online for delivery. Made a note to check order as item missing from previous order. Food arrived later than requested, system is cash only but driver has limited cash for change. Food not very hot and sausage missing. Called shop and was asked if I would go without and they would credit next time - said no as this was someone's dinner. Took over 30 minutes to arrive, tepid. No apology. Not the best example of customer service.
