Battye's Fish & Chips in Wakefield

Lovely white fish and hot on delivery

One large curry missing. Fish small.

Orders are normally spot on, however this time completely wrong. Large chips and got about 10 chips, large peas got a small and they missed my can of pop. It also took nesrly 2 hours to come. Very disappointed

Unfortunately the food was only lukewarm when it arrived and yet again the delivery was taken to the wrong place. Your sat nav needs updating as my new build house obviously isn’t on it. Instead I have to meet the driver 50 meters away to collect over a fence.

On entering the restaurant e aw a sign to to wait to be seated, we waited a while and nobody came out so we rang the bell for assistance, a young lad came out of the kitchen with a face like thunder, not welcoming at all, he only spoke when asking for our order, we ordered a sharing platter that should have come with dips, he brought the meal out and we though he had gone back in the kitchen for the dips but he didn’t return when he finally came back out of kitchen we had nearly eaten most our starter and we asked for some dips his face was once again like thunder and said “ what dips do you want” in a rude manner, we will defiantly not be returning, it doesn’t cost anything to be friendly and polite, I really think the staff need some training in good customer service

Absolutely 1st class food and great service from polite, professional staff. Portion sizes are enormous and extremely fresh! Had the 'Gigantic' Fish what a whopper! This will absolutely be our 'go too' resteraunt and takeaway from now on. Great experience and good value for money. Thank you all.

Battys seems to have gone downhill again. They have young lads frying and serving on the takeaway counter. I always go for the 5 fish bites and small chips for £3.50. Great value you’ll say! Not so if you’re served over fish bites the size of nuggets and a huge portion of chips. I gave them another chance but never again.

Lovely food. Arrived hot and on time.

Called in today had 5 fish bites and small chips for £3-50 and I was amazed at how much they gave me for the price don’t know how they can make money on that but it was very nice would definitely go back

Very slow service it needs proper staff that knows how to run a fish & chip shop the owners aren’t bothered how long your food takes only one staff working she is taking orders doing food then having to butter bread cakes and serve customers all at the same time

had to walk yo for food no delivery driver eras want money back

late delivery and semi cold food, ordered 2 large chips and a regular and there was barely enough to feed 3 people

forgot to ask for scraps, but a box full send, fantastic service, thank you, great food hotand fresh

always beautiful, hot and on time.

My mum and I eat regularly (once every couple of weeks) in the restaurant. The fish and chips are always very good, as are the peas and curry sauce. The chicken goujons are lovely too. The staff are helpful and friendly, particularly a nice girl called Steph who even worked out the cheapest deals for us when we ate there today. There is parking and the loo is always clean. No complaints at all.

Delicious!! Best fish and chips I’ve had in ages!!

Beautiful fish & chips as always infact the best in the area & lovely friendly young man whi served us credit to the business

Good food, staff can be a bit abrupt

Visited today (8th Feb ) in the restaurant as always the food was fantastic. But what’s happened to the service. No bread and butter. No mention of Tea No smiles no chat Felt like we should eat up and leave. Shame as my mum raves about this place but was disappointed too. Outside door open all service then shut behind us when we left. Checked opening times and hours left . As thought we was last customers. Would I go back no. Shame as been loads of times.

Best fish and chips around that is well portioned at affordable prices. The only improvement I can suggest is to tackle the damp smell lingering in the restaurant.

excellent quality and service, thankyou .

Best fish and chips in the area

Very nice and the Irish curry 👌

Really enjoyable, hot fish and chips delivered by a very pleasant delivery driver.

Food was nice when it was eventually delivered. It took 2 and half hours from ordering to arrive.

I meant to order it for delivery but could not get a phone number to talk to anyone fed up with this ap

Just had the chips n peas, but they were excellent will try the fish next time

fast delivery, delicious food 👍

delivery guy very pleasant and polite

Food is very good, not the best in Cas in my opinion but still lovely. Portion sizes good and reasonable price.

All my chips wasn’t even on my breadcake they was all out of box flat cold only thing came warm was curry sauce lol

The chips was not cooked at all , might aswell just chopped the potatoes up in to the box ! Very disappointing to say this is one of the best fish shops around Castleford

Drove past this place on numerous occasions so I thought I would give it a try. It was surprisingly warm for December so I ordered a large fish (£8) to eat outside on one of the benches. The fish was a reasonable size, crispy batter but a lot of grease. In fact it was almost swimming in the bottom of the takeout box. Very unfortunate because the fish was nice, white, and tasty although chewy at the sides and ends. Not sure if I would venture back, I have had a lot better.

My first and last time trying this so called “chippy”. The food was not only cold but the chips (if you want to call them that) were paler than Nosferatu. I almost chipped a tooth eating them. Very dry, very sad.

The worst fish n ships I have eaten chips dry and hard, fish was stale, bread was stale , peas where a joke curry sauce tasted like fruit juice , never again

very fast, efficient and friendly

always beautiful, hot and on time.

OK. Fish and chips hot and fresh. Menu says with tartar sauce but they didn't bring any, had to ask.

I was missing my battered sausage

First time ordering. Glad i did. Delicious Cod&Chips. Tasty Battered sausage. Lovely Chip Butty. Definitely order again.

Our food was only just warm. In fact most of the chips were cold

First time of getting a takeaway and it will be the last. Not impressed, service SLOW, counter had food on it and the fish and chips was the worst I have ever eaten, will not be recommending it to anyone

Outstanding. The best in Yorkshire. Now there was an issue with the driver doing a runner with the food but Battey’s were onto it very quick and promptly rescheduled another order and driver which was delivered actually on time. They also rang and informed me too which was excellent service. Just eat drivers are getting worse but the second driver was nice and pleasant. 10/10 for the food too.

Fantastic today but need more variety on pies

Had a drive out for tea, we enjoyed it! However the service is very slow waited over 20mins for food. The girl serving was on her own and did her best to please customers but she was inundated with orders both walking-in and online orders (just eat) the girl was quite capable but needs support during busy times. It's unfair on her!! Sort it out Battye's

the food wasn't piping hot but warm. expected it to red hot after waiting nearly 1½hr.

Only just warm and scallops not fresh

Food cold and completely inedible won’t be ordering again

Great fish and chips the large fish was massive

Up there with the fish and chip restaurants in Whitby.

fish and chips for us sat night, arrived on time and lovely and hot and tasty.Worth every penny.

Oh dear … food not bad at best average but the state of the restaurant and the staffing beggars belief ! Filthy cutlery, filthy tea tray, filthy unmatched chipped cups, filthy saucers, filthy salt pots let’s not talk about the pepper see pictures 😂, filthy carpet, and filthy blinds, apart from that the place is spotless ! The menus were … yes you’ve guessed it FILTHY worn out and from a previous business. One only wonders what the kitchen is like. Oh and a piece of coving that had somehow detached itself from the wall and ceiling propped up in a corner and the young tall man who served us did not know his own menu and everything was to much trouble as it got in the way of his kitchen social life. I’ve eaten in cleaner trenches (if you know you know)

I visit a friend (84yrs old) every few months and we often patronise Battye’s. It’s usually an enjoyable meal of fish & chips. Sadly in our last visit 24th Oct we felt the restaurant to be cold. When we asked re: heating, e were informed that the boiler had broken down. The restaurant should either been closed or customers informed that the heating was off before sitting down. In the least it would be have a gesture to offer a hot drink gratis to warm us up! An old chap was sneezing all through his meal as he was cold. The food was good but didn’t stay warm with the restaurant being cold.

That chicken burger is fantastic!

food missing after spending over £40 will not be ordering again

Deaf girl delivery driver always smiles when she sees me,bless her

First time ordering fish and chips from Battye's. Would definitely have again.

Been a while but I had to chip in with this one! The Tadcaster Trawler, the Selby Schooner, the erm.....can't remember the name of the one in Wakefield, but what I can tell you is this place is astoundingly good value for money in comparison to expensive impersonators. What I simply can't understand is why anyone would go anywhere else for sit down F 'n' C's. Absolutely stuffed for less than £30 a couple! Don't know why I'm telling you this. Probably won't be able to get a table next time! PS. Fruity Curry Sauce um, 's'awesome!

Driver went all over normanton instead of doing hightown first the muppet ,I told him off my food was cold!!

Opens at 11.30 got there at 11.40. No lights on, but door open. 1 couple in front of us. Sat down then realised batter crumbs on the seat, as we were 1st customer the cleaner had obviously missed the seating. Ordered fish and chips which came with tartar sauce, tea, bread and butter. Food arrived no tartar sauce. Asked for this they came back with 1 portion. I asked for another, the reply was you want 2. It is included I said. Fish was lovely and crispy, chips could have been warmer. Altogether a good portion, good meal and great value.

Fish white and flaky with a delicious thin crispy batter. Chips good fish and chip type chips, crispy on outside and soft in the middle.

Always order from here great food. highly recommend.

Fantastic chicken burger,should be able to buy a double tho

Just fancied a bag of chips and called into Barry’s as blue ocean was closed, omg I wish I hadn’t of bothered! The portion of chips was small and not very nice, was like eating greasy wax coated chips. Best avoiding tbh

Fresh and hot, Curry sauce is amazing!

Best chippy by a country mile.

Over 25 minutes to wait for chips and curry sauce

Just had the most amazing fish & chips with fruity curry sauce. Very generous portion, now I am in a food coma!

We have been coming here every Friday for years. The quality of the food remains ok but Recently, the hygiene standards have slipped. The cutlery and crockery cleanliness is poor and when challenged the staff didn’t seem overly concerned. It’s a shame because everything was fine not that long ago.

I was just passing by and nipped in for a pie dinner. Being from Wales I was expecting to pay about twelve quid but it was only £5.50 with a can of pop thrown in. For the money no complaints at all.

Always good quality fish and chips, with bread and butter and a pot of tea. Good service. I was disappointed with the ketchup. it seemed thin, very runny.

Always had good fish and chips from here, but on my last visit the chips were soggy and the fish which by the way was cooked to order,was over cooked.

beautiful food, lovely service from the young girl on friday dinner time. will be returning

Fish and chips are cooked to order so hot and fresh 😋 Reasonably priced, But the food is good 👍 and the staff are helpful and friendly.

Excellent service and quality. Even the delivery driver was outstanding.

your driver thieved food from my order I spoke to the restaurant so I want money back and your driver to get consequences not fair at all

2 main items were missing from an order for 5, so they were disappointed and hungry. This is the second order where an item has been missing from this restaurant when ordering.

food was nice and no problem just there was no fruit shoots with the kids meal

Ordered two bottles of shandy. Received two cans of dandelion and burdock which would be £2 cheaper.

If you want great fresh traditional fish and chips with bread butter and cups of tea for an absolutely bargain price , this is the place for you. Sat in the restaurant and got great service from carol and her apprentices. Couldn’t fault it. Proper Yorkshire 🤩

do not waste your money freezing cold and dripping with hard fat phoned shop because bread cake missing and asked for scraps and salt and vinegar she told me the just eat driver must of stolen the bread cake scraps salt and vinegar off our food

Ordered two children’s meals got the meals no drinks or breadcakes rang them said it’s not there fault it’s just eats erm you make an package it not just eat disgusting

I don't like to leave a bad review for any business, but I think this might be useful for potential customers. We ordered cod and chips and two fishcakes. The fishcakes were undercooked and potato was hard The fish was almost non-existant. But the real problem was the lousy fish and chips. The chips were dripping in grease and I am pretty sure the grey, tough, chewy fish was not cod. It's a long time since I've been to Battye's and it used to be good. Not any more.

ordered 3 curry sauces one was broken and all in the bag

Excellent food and service thanks Battye's fish shop.

Excellent food and service thanks .

4 stars 🌟 for food . 3 of us had mini fish and chips cooked beautiful. jordan took our order Didn't wait long for our meals and we weren't disappointed.well cooked and well presented .keep up the good work battles team .plus jordan was a 5 star xx

fish and chips was beautiful was warm ish....but the curry sauce was horrible had a layer of like skin on top of it and was cold

Food was great. The staff were unorganised. Got the order wrong on the phone, clarified what it was when I got there, still got it wrong when bagging up after reading back to me. They then started bickering behind the fryer about who took the order and how busy it was getting.

I bought take away fish and chips yesterday and was very disappointed. The batter was so soggy it was stuck to the chips and I had to scrape it off. Have had them before (both restaurant and take away) and they were 5 star.

Tasty fish and chips and decent price

Finest fish and chips shop in town

Very bad service from this restaurant, the food that came was good but I was missing numerous items from my order so I rang the restaurant to tell them and they told me that they can’t do anything about it because they can’t get in touch with the delivery driver so I lose money basically, never will I order from this restaurant ever again, poor customer service.

It was the definition of perfect

Food was great - fish was excellent. Issue with missing portion of chips very quickly resolved...

Beautiful food as always. 10/10

Excellent food and service thanks Battey's Fish and Chips.

wow what rubbish half my order was missing the wrong items were sent very very poor

Excellent food and service. very enjoyable.

polite staff, lovely food. would recommend
