Baildon Fisheries in Bradford

Recently re-opened, and for Fish and Chips, has gone seriously downhill. Ordered twice now, first time had to chase after 40 mins, and delivered with error on order. Ordered again on 7th Dec, and fishcake was inedible (hard and badly undercooked with wet fish), chips were a bit hard but the fish was nice. It's a bit all over the place, but at the moment wouldn't recommend (for Fish and Chips - not tried the Pizza or Curry which are new)

Just ordered a pizza from Baildon Fisheries absolutely spot on. We got the 14" Beef Eater and also meat feast 14". The pizza itself tasted amazing the pizza base was crispy done perfectly. Try them they are banging we normally get fish and chips but fancied a change glad we did Awesome service great price very very happy

Tried for first time tonight and really good fresh fish and plenty of chips would go back 👍

Ordered 2 x fish butty and chips the food was really nice fresh fish at a good price. I got served by a really pleasant gentleman will definitely by usual fish and chips

Fish and chips greasy and well overdone. Couldn't eat them so went in the bin. Will not be returning ever!!

Under new ownership, food was disgusting batter was just grease, chips rock hard will not be going back. Highly recommend you don't try it horrible binned the lot

Food was horrible so much Greece can't eat the chips as to hard, threw it in the bin can't take it back as they closed now definitely never going back.

My fish and chips were well overcooked. The curry sauce was watered down. Ended up throwing them in the bin and it cost me £10. Absolutely shocking. P.s it's under new management. The last owners did decent fish and chips.

Well the chips I bought today have to be the worst ive ever had. Cheap old potatoes have been used. Lots of rot on them. See for yourself in my photo. Won't be going again

New owners. Not worth going anymore. Argumentative when it comes to paying, 2 day old batter and yesterday's chips. Charged for 2 scallop butties and got only 1. Haven't had a chippy this bad, ever.

Brilliant! Lightly battered was ordered and that's exactly what I got. Light and crispy batter. No sludge between the fish and the batter. Chips were soft and fluffy inside. Friendly environment. All round lovely experience 10/10

Just happened to pop in this afternoon for the first time for some chip butties while traffic was grid locked.. Wish I had never went! Staff were miserable, asian lad was handling food barehanded after I saw him washing up in the back and he was just rude. The chips were absolutely disgusting, they were that hard and undercooked that we had to bin it. What a waste of money, avoid at all costs.

Bad. Chips were awful ,tasted of off fish . Staff seemed miserable, felt like we were putting them out asking them to cook a fish . Didn’t feel great after eating , binned most of the food . This place used to be good .

Got fish and chips and fish cake from here a couple of days ago ,they were absolutely beautiful 😍

This place has gone from 5 star to 1 star since it changed owners. We will not be back

Since this previously fabulous fisheries changed ownership it has gone downhill. The last two deliveries we had were rubbish, the batter was poor quality and the chips were refried. We are so disappointed that this once brilliant fisheries has now deteriorated so badly. Come on, new owners, get a grip, we Yorkshire people want proper top quality Yorkshire fish n chips like we used to get from charlestown fisheries

5.30 Saturday: Just bought fish, chips and peas from this once 5 star fish and chip shop. Extremely disappointed: if I could could give it no stars I would - abysmal!!!

Ordered battered sausages and there was no batter left on them once opened it all had fallen off. Curry sauce very watery. Not as good as in past. Not sure why?!

Absolutely shocking! Looked like it had been thrown in the box, stone cold mushy peas that tasted disgusting, fish was dry and tasteless and sliced really thin, chips tasted like they had been reheated, chip butty with hardly any chips!! Such a shame that new owners have come in and not carried on how a successful chippy was operated!!

Brilliant chippy. Best in Baildon.

They are only open for a couple of hours on an evening. So you have to go early. They never fail to impress. Beautiful flaky fish and crispy batter. They also give a discount if you pay cash. But happily take card payments too

Friendly service and amazing fish and chips

Fabulous fish and chips, beautiful batter, meaty chunky fresh fish, perfect chips, consistently top quality, extra bonus is the home delivery

Been coming to Charlestown Fisheries formally Baildon Fisheries for a long time, the service, taste and overall experience is literally second to none. You’ve tried the rest stick with the best!!!

Nice guys. But you gotta do gluten free fish n chips to get the future custom of this family of four.

Having lived in Baildon for five years we can categorically say that these are the best fish and chips weve ever had. The fish is chunky and meaty, the batter is beautifully light and crispy and the chips are delicious. Always top quality and excellent service

I never leave google reviews but the fish and chips we've had from here recently have been so nice, really good big chunky haddock and light crispy batter - so good I felt compelled to leave a review!

Not sure when exactly but the ownership of this chip shop changed recently and the food is now amazing! We've had fish and chips from here a few times before and they have been ok but since the change over they have become amazing! Everything is cooked really fresh and the portion sizes are very good! Chips are cooked well and not greasy like others can be. Don't think we'll be ordering from anywhere but here in the future, would definitely recommend!

Just had fish & chips from Charlestown Fisheries , absolutely beautiful , thick succulent fish , always delicious from you wouldn’t go anywhere else and , excellent value . Thank you once again for a lovely tea

Had f&c here a few times recently. It’s always fresh and done in clean oil, not greasy, good portions . Delivery was also efficient

Fantastic chippy and good friendly people running it.

I live abroad so always look forward to fish and chips when back visiting family, and our takeaway from Baildon Fisheries last night didn't disappoint. I had the light meal, small fish and small chips, which was fab, great portion size and very tasty. Parents had fish and a cake, and we all shared mushy peas and curry sauce. It was all superb, thank you.

We received our order today granted it arrived just after 5pm having made a preorder at 3:30pm. When we received them they were just warm!. We were very disappointed with our order this time sorry to say.

Last week,when the power supply had been outed by the storm.we sent out for fish and chips,they were delivered and arrived hot and crisp,and were a taste sensation! So thank you for that.So impressed was I,that I wanted to try Baildon Fisheries again just to be sure they were as good as I thought they were.They were not ! If anything they were even better,so congratulations to you, and very well done.

We have just had Fish and Chips delivered from Baildon Fisheries. Delivered on time and not only piping hot but absolutely delicious! There’s nothing worse than poor Fish and Chips and nothing better when they are cooked to perfection and hot! Thank you, we will definitely be coming back again.

Freshly cooked to order, they're very tasty. Best Fish & Chips in the area

Fantastic fish and chips we were on holiday had them delivered very hot on arrival

Brilliant they always do it how you like it

Easy to order online, they were delivered on time and we're hot. Very enjoyable

The BEST fish and chips in the area. Delivered hot and fresh 😋 lovely.!!

Just had a delivery this evening first time absolutely brilliant!!

Best fish and chip shop in Baildon

Lovely fish and chips and the irish curry sauce I'm amazing

Friendly staff fish beautiful quality fish cooked on order outstanding

The whole family enjoyed the food. Meal deal for 2 was used and the fish was superb. Adults and kids alike - finished every last bit of the meal. We will be back - keep up the good work Lee & team.

Baildon Fisheries consistently deliver the best fish n chips by a country mile. Performance and helpfulness through lockdown has also been exemplary. Online booking for collection or local delivery - the food is always freshly prepared an absolutely the best to be had in Baildon. Looking forward to this Fridays order!

We have used Baildon Fisheries since it opened - the quality is superior to anything else we have tried locally. Keep up the good work folks - especially proud of your efforts during lockdown in the UK. Our whole family look forward to every friday to get our order in online..... see you soon!!!

Calamari and chips. Yes please! delicious!!

The best fish and chips in Baildon and they have been delivering since before the pandemic. The "mini meal" is great value for those with great taste but a slightly smaller appetite!

Superb fish n chips tonight, the best I’ve had for a long time

We've been eating from Baildon Fisheries since opening, this year taking advantage of their delivery service. Friday is our day. Delivery has only been late once all year - and that's understandable on occasion so I wouldn't berate them for that. Such is life. The thing that most stands out for us is their batter. It is so light and whatever they cook in suits us too. Other 'chippies' had us feeling 'yukky' the next day. Portions are more than adequate also - what's not to like?! Full marks all round from us....off to make our usual order.

Lovely food! But it’s a shame that the delivery service is so slow. Very disappointed. We ordered online an hour before the chosen delivery slot and it was still 20 minutes late. Online deliveries should be prioritised over walk ins. They didn’t contact me to inform they were running behind. When I rang to see what was happening I struggled to get through after listening to their long introductory message about opening times. Didn’t apologise on the phone when I did finally get through to someone either. We will just stick to Webster’s !

Nothing is ever too much, even phoning to check I can order ten mins before closing as I’m greedy and just needed fish and chips! Lee and his team are all so polite and the service is next to none, the food is always fresh,delicious and piping hot, I will always recommend and would not deter from Baildon Fisheries! Have used for many years and will continue to use for many years! One of the very few places I can honestly say I’ve never had any bad experience. What’s more outstanding with Baildon Fisheries is their services during the pandemic and still serving many families in timely manners. Superstars!!!!

Well done Baildon Fisheries for looking after your fellow Baildonites during lockdown to make sure we got our takeaway treat! Hat's off to the friendly young lads on their mopeds delivering them promptly to us, they did you proud.BEST fish and chips in Baildon...won't go anywhere else!

Best Fish and Chips we have tried for a long time it was our first time but won't be our last.

Called and ordered the easiest order fish chip sausage curry sauce. Got home no sausage. Chips only nearly cooked. Curry sauce that thick I couldn't pour from tub and to top it off clap cold. What's happened to this fish shop. Total rubbish for good money paid. Thrown in bin.

Fabulous fish and chips still hot after delivery and bang on time. Keep up the good work.

Great fish shop. Excellent service. Fish and chips always hot and nicely cooked. Would highly recommend.

Just got delivery.( Cold .)small fish was disgusting chips so dry coudnt eat them. Even husband left most of his, not impressed.

Fantastic service, food always hot when delivered. Always go out of they way for you Best fish and chips I've had

FOLLOW UP REVIEW FROM PREVIOUS REVIEW: Started visiting again and quality is back up where it should be and used to be - started using again regularly and really pleased with service and quality again. Recommending to friends and family again, good portions and great quality - thanks Lee. Started off really well, but the last few visits have been average at best. Average portion size and average quality - sometimes seem a little over done. For some of the people serving, it just seems a chore for them to be serving - service with a smile please and be more aware about the quality.

Excellent Fish and chips best in baildon and the delivery service was brilliant thank you.

We have had dinner from here at least once a week and it arrives piping hot and delicious on time would recommend to anyone one who has a taste bud to have this.

Made the weekly trip to our favourite fish and chip shop a couple of weeks ago, was served by the woman with curly hair that fry’s the food. Absolutely appalled by the service I was given, rude and snobby comments made by her whilst I was ordering and been given my food. Absolute disgrace to the team. Will not be coming back and will be recommending everyone I know to go to a different place. The woman needs sacking!

Lovely friendly service and great food

Just ordered our fish and chips and had them delivered and have to say both myself and my husband thought they were lovely, generous portion plenty of scraps, we tried the irish curry which was very tasty we also tried the homemade tartare sauce and this was also very nice we will definitely order again 👍

Absolutely beautiful food. I was a little sad when they closed the restaurant as I live at the top of the hill and don't drive. I am absolutely delighted they now deliver so me and my children can enjoy the best fish and chips in baildon.

Way better than Webster's and cheaper

Didn't get indigestion so must be good

Best Fish and Chips for miles, generous portions, excellent prices. Brilliant Customer service and with a smile. Highly recommended!

The " Special"s are really special!

As a fairly regular visitor to this takeaway I have only been disappointed once when the fish was not cooked to order. Visited this evening and was asked how many fish I wanted on arrival, cooked to order outstanding quality and friendly staff. I’m fortunate that I can walk to this place but would not hesitate in recommending anyone to drive and experience great fish and chips.

Lovley fish chips nice but some with bits of pleel on not a lot though

Nice but prepare to pay....fish n chips no longer a cheap fast food. Decent quality.

Not right good, the fish is hit and miss, avoid, better chipys in baildon

I remember Baildon fisheries when you were served by a nice pleasent smiley lady and the great quality fish and chips were a pleasant alternative to the overpriced warm ups sold at Websters. But alas, as with a lot of things nowadays, the quality has nosedived... Gone is the nice smiley lady, replaced by surly teenagers... Gone is the superb food and gone is that little eat in Cafe... I suppose it's down to lower Baildon, or Doyles in Shipley now.

Fresh cooked fish - portions are huge! Best "chippy" in the area.

Lovely fish and chips and friendly staff

Scrappy looking chips, full of grease and then more. Fish was OK, not great but OK. The women in front of me had much fresher looking chips. Not the first time they have been like this. Wont use again

Fish and chips are always delicious and well cooked.

Fish & chips are excellent, however parking can be a bit of problem.

Can’t fault the fish and chips in any way shape or form. I have visited a number of times and it’s consistently good

My first time here and I was incredibly impressed. Quick service during a busy period and a happy smiling young lady at the counter. I had scollops which until now I had only thought of as fish things. But turns out they are a potato based dish as well, who knew? (Probably everyone but me :) ) Chips were gorgeous with a light fluffy inside and a crispy outside. This is going to be a regular haunt for me from this point on.

Has to be Baildons premier fish and chip shop. Spotless inside and pleasant staff. Quality is second to none. Very tasty and reasonably priced. 10/10

Prefer this place to Websters, better value and well cooked

Very good food. Eat in or take away. Good service and cheaper than Websters.

Great fish & chips, friendly staff and lots of variety

Excellent Service and delicious fish and chips. ..!!

We have been using Baildon Fisheries for quite some time now and I don't think they have ever let us down. The team have always been friendly and helpful. The food has always been good. Can't recommend it highly enough.

an excellent fish shop, you will have to travel a long way to beat the quality, highly recommend the mushy peas

We often use Baildon fisheries as they are by far, better than any other around here, they need a michelin star compared to the other fish shop at the top of Baildon.Everything cooked to order, batter on the fish is light and crispy with the chips solid and chunky. Portions are more than adequate with a manager that listens sympathetically to any issues you have.The place is spotless and the young staff are all polite and very helpfull. Great Chippy with a varied menu. Please keep up the fantastic standards!!!

Freshly fried food served with a smile. The range of extras is extensive and matches the quality of the fish and chips

Better than Webster's up the road. Friendly people inside. Plus they offer you a discount card on top of their good tasting fish and chips.

Friday tea take out fish and chips. Cooked to order didn't wait too long. Fish was delicious!

Fish and chips are really nice .staff very polite and helpful. Fish cooked while you wait.quite fast service.

Absolutely amazing fish, batter was so light and fluffy

Fast efficient service and lovely food

Great fish and chips, lovely batter, fish cooked to order. Very friendly staff. Best chippy around by far!

A few months ago we used to call regularly for our F&C The lady behind the counter was so smiley & friendly..Not sure where she is now, but currently it seems to be staffed by slightly surley, non communicative teenagers...Please smile & chat a bit, it makes a world of difference.

We go to this fish and chip shop and eat in every Saturday at tea time . It is brilliant.The Food is freshly cooked to order.We have been going since it opened and can honestly say we have never had a bad meal.fantastic food and lovely friendly staff.
