Canal Side Chip Shop in Highland

Pour le confort du lecteur cet avis se découpera en trois parties (I. II. III.) afin de décrire en long en large et en travers MON expérience chez ce fameux restaurateur. À table !! (non) I. Des red-flags à l’appel (signaux d’alertes pour les plus vieux ^^) - Presque vide. Et finalement c’était pour une bonne raison. - Le peu de monde devant nous (3 personnes) a dû attendre une plombe avant de se faire servir (chose surprenante étant donnée la qualité des mets que nous verrons dans les parties II. et III.) - Absolument AUCUNS (oui AUCUNS) ingrédients à la vue du client hormis des petits sachets de sauces et un énorme congélateur horizontal. - Excessivement cher pour ce que c’est (9.70£. le chicken burger avec des frites) II. Un « burger » au poulet d’une simplicité déconcertante (terme courtois pour ne pas dire creux, fade, inconsistant, terne ou vide). Un « burger » comme je n’ai JAMAIS, au grand JAMAIS vu. Et pourtant j’ai sans aucun doute côtoyé les pires fast-food non homologués aussi bien à Barbès que dans d’autres contrées (notamment Grenoble capitale de la gastronomie et des indigestions…) Bon, trêve de plaisanteries, attaquons nous à ce fameux repas ! Voici la liste (exhaustive bien évidemment je n’oserai pas omettre un seul petit détail) des ingrédients de ce fameux casse-croûte : 1. Pain burger farineux et sec largement pire qu’en grande surface. 2. « Choix » entre trois sauces (Ketchup, Mayonnaise, Barbecue) 3. Poulet pané surgelé tout droit issu du congélateur (devant nous bien évidemment) et jeté dans l’huile. Voilà, c’est tout, 3 ingrédients, rien de plus: du pain de prisonnier, une minuscule lichette de sauce pour garder le côté rudimentaire et enfin pour couronner le tout le misérable morceau de poulet surgelé. Pas même une tranche d’oignon, une rondelle de tomate ou un coeur de salade… (logique jusque là cela représenterai trop de travail à fournir pour décongeler) III. « Frites » (oui juste « frites » pas « frites avec de la sauce ») Promis je fais court ! - Surgelées comme attendu (encore une fois ça sort tout droit du paquet éco+ du congélateur) - Approximativement 1 tonne de sel ajouté dessus, de quoi saler l’intégralité du loch pour que Nessie se sente dépaysé en Mer Morte ou en Mer d’Aral. - Radinerie à son paroxysme car PAS de sauce (oui oui vous avez bien lu pas un seul trait, pas une seule pointe de sauce, pas un petit sachet à côté car on préfère le sel marin.) - Du coup on vend les sachets de sauce à 50 cents l’unité pour arrondir les fins de mois. CONCLUSION. Catastrophique. Si on avait été dans un pays du tiers-monde je n’aurai pas pris la peine de commenter mais on est quand même en Angleterre… bien que tout le monde sache que la cuisine n’est pas leur fort mais c’est tout de même un sacré exploit de faire aussi terrible. En somme: à fuir, je préfère encore boire la tasse dans le Loch Ness.

Come for the fish and chips, cooked while you wait and served up piping hot right from the fryer. Don’t come for friendly service or decor (none to speak of). On a nice summer evening we took our food to a picnic table alongside the canal, and enjoyed ourselves. Note: for two adults in our 60’s, one order to split was plenty of food.

Not very friendly. Frozen chips, fried to order and the peas & curry were taken out the fridge in the pot and put in the microwave for not nearly half as long as it should have been. Almost came out the pot solid. Oversalted everything also. The birds looked to enjoy it more than we did!!

Shocking food ! Shocking service ! Frozen chips not cooked ! Fish batter was soggy and fish tasteless and mushy peas heated in microwave still cold. Would not recommend we went there as we were on a boat ! They must still be in business as to where they are situated. Expensive and food inedible. Ducks ate it though !!

Frozen chips, rude service, don’t waste your money. Called in for lunch, ordered fish & chips, and chips & curry sauce. Owner proceeded to put frozen chips in fryer and battered fish, put a lidded tub of curry sauce in microwave. Two other ladies were waiting for their orders, and two gentlemen then came in and ordered food. Wanted pizza but owner said curtly that he had no cheese! The gentleman then placed an alternative order and then wished to add onion rings, the owner seemed reluctant to add to the order but did then agree. The owner then told the gentleman to wait outside which I think he did not understand, this request/order was then rudely shouted several times! I have never witnessed such rude aggression! My husband and I were very close to walking out, but our order was just being dished up. Fish & chips served in polystyrene tray, and my curry sauce was poured all over my chips! Not what I expected, but tbh I didn’t want confrontation with him! The chips were undercooked and spoiled by all the curry sauce congealing on them. My husbands fish was ok, but quite thin. All in all a complete waste of money as most of it went in the bin. My advice is avoid!

Had fish and chips by the canal yesterday evening. The most beautifully cooked fish I’ve ever had from a chippy! Perfect batter and the fish seems to be steamed inside it. Delicious. It was cooked to order by the gentleman who seems to run this place single-handed. Highly recommended.

Best Fish & Chips we've ever had! Highly recommended - if you're ever in the "Nessie" area then this is the Fish & Chip shop to visit.

Doesnt do burgers, enquired about what meat the sausage was the server was crass tried to order a pizza oven is broken- awful!

A one man band who serves to order. So please bear with the waiting. It’s worth the wait. Returned and came here for lunch again.

We ventured into Fort Augustus for a look around & having previously scoped Trip Advisor for food reviews, decided to purchase lunch from the Canal Side Chip Shop when it opened at 12.00. Best decision we made, the fish & chips were honestly the best I’ve ever eaten. Hubby had sausage & chips, youngest had chips, with 3 drinks & sauces £30 in total. We sat outside in the canal side benches in 23* heat watching the world pass by. We’ve already said we’ll return for tea later in the week prior to heading home. Would definitely recommend.

fantastic fish and chips at a fantastic price. not olnly did we enjoy the food we will be returning before we leave. Only pointer for the owner is to have better signage on location of establishment

Absolutely divine, we came to Fort Agustus for a nice family walk on our holiday, we decided to go for some lunch before heading to the Loch Cruise site, we saw a lovely corner fish and chip shop and thought how nice it would be to have some warm tasty food before the coldness of the loch, best decision we made, the food met and went beyond our expectations of a Chippy, it was absolutely amazing, brilliant prices aswell, we fed 5 of us for £40, and they weren't shy on the portions either. Great food Great portions Brilliant staff Absolutely would go there again and will be recommending to people who are thinking of going to the village

Amazing food fantastic service, the card machine wasn’t working so the man told us to have our food and bring the cash afterwards. My husband went to atm whilst waiting for food and on paying he had no change so charged us twenty pound instead of 22.30

This wasn’t our first choice but for some reason the other one was closed. But we weren’t disappointed as everything was top notch. Okay we had to wait, but when the food was ready, everything was excellent. The cod - top draw!

Great chips & mushy peas. Partner enjoyed his scampi. Cooked to order so hot & fresh. Gentleman nice & friendly. Even has couple of tables at side of canal for you to use.

Stopped here for fish and chips beside the canal. The fish was really tasty and well cooked as were the chips! Very clean, very tasty just what you want from fish and chips

Lovely food, big portions, great to find a chippy that is veggie friendly, chips cooked in vegetable oil and lovely😊 Service friendly and welcoming.

We had a takeout from here great service great food warm friendly. The pizzas are really something very tasty

It was a short wait, the food was delicious. Prices a little high, but it is a tourist spot after all. Quick and easy eats for a local like me.

Impolite and rude, definitely not recommend, found a much better chippy just 5 minutes walk away. The food was average but expensive at best and we had a minor complaint and was met with a torrent of abuse, quite taken aback.

Great fresh Fish and chips, nice friendly stuff with great service , recommend using if your in the area!

I've ate here many times and it has proved to be a decent enough chippie with no complaints, I've not been in a while and went today, even though it is over priced I can understand that as it's a tourist area, but when I...

Cycle touring and one of the only places open in with COVID regulations. Did not disappoint. Perfectly cooked chips - crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and not dry. Tasty battered fish. Perfect portions - not so large that you feel overwhelmed with...

I ordered a single fish, without chips. At a cost of £6 I received a half portion of fish. not sure if it is some sort of deformity in the fish that are caught in Scotland, as this is now the third time in recent...

It was late, dark, we'd just checked in to our hotel and wanted something for supper. Made the mistake of going here largely because it was....open, the only place.....open. £16 later for two portions of chips and 1 scampi we sat down and stared at...

The chips were good but sadly the fish was not up to scratch, the batter was crisp but the fish poor, it was however cooked to order and piping hot.

My wife and I shared a fish n chips and it was most excellent. The staff who served me were polite and friendly, and they gave me two ketchups for free. I had to go back to tell them who good the fish was! It...

Generally open lunchtime and from 16:30 or 17:00. Now called Rambos. Tourist prices- same as the rest of Fort Augustus. We went on a Tues evening and they had no pizza, no kebabs, no curry sauce! So we had fish and chips and sausage and...

We decided to have fish and chips at the side of canal. View fantastic food was awful. Fish tasted off, chips tasted like they had been reheated. Felt ill all day after this, both me and my husband

Only open for a few months. Food rubbish. For a sit down fish and chips at lowish cost go to the Moorings at the side of the canal. Use the same for a takeaway or the takeaway beside the garage.

My partner and our kids were in town for a family thing. We got talking to a nice lady at the shops who recommended this chip shop. 2 hungry kids, we thought we'd give it a go. What a waste of money! We tried the other chippy, they were equally awful. What s so hard about good fish and chips? Tasted like frozen rubbish. Save your money!

Just what we needed! It was lashing rain, nothing else appeared to be open despite it being mid-July, and we were a bit fed up to be honest. These were great chips, served up by friendly staff.

Great fish supper, freshly prepared while you wait. Perfect location to dine out by the canal and watch the boats traverse the locks.

We grabbed some chips before heading back to our bus tour because they were conveniently located and smelled really good. They were ok at best. Kind of soggy with oil and not great tasting. Maybe we caught them on an off day, but we wouldn’t go back.

I really enjoyed the fish and chips I had here. There was a bit of a line. But when I got my order I found out why!

Bought meals here for group of eight spending weekend on Canal Cruiser, meals well cooked but would be better with real chips not frozen would return well run clean establishment

We had a craving for fish and chips and s were were staying just a few minutes walk away, we decided to try here. The portions were quite small; not enough for a man with an appetite. Overpriced in my opinion, greasy, soggy batter and just bland. We definitely won't be going back; a real disappointment.

very nice fish and chips. ate them walking up and down the side of the locks. friendly staff. good choice on menu

Not great. Frozen chips, out of a bag, fried. My recommendation is try the other one by the main car park. Not great.

I was initially taken aback by the prices but since the kids were hungry I ordered them fish and chips to share. The small portion size was initially a concern considering the price. However, upon tasting the food the small portion turned out to be a blessing as there was less waste when the meal went mostly uneaten. The chips were hard, dry and flavourless whilst the fish was a flavourless mush covered in hard over fried batter. Absolutely disgusting. Do not waste your money.

If you like paying £18 for 2 fish & chips this is the place to go. The chips are oven chips so they are going for maximum profit here. Fish is heavily over cooked & the place looks like a makeshift chippy.

Ordered a large portion of chips,

As the name states this little takeaway shop is located alongside the canal in Fort Augustus. There is no seating inside. However, it was a beautiful sunny day and the town was filled with people, so we picked up chicken sandwiches plus onion rings and had a picnic along the canal. The food was just OK. The view of the canal and on into Loch Ness was breathtaking. There was even a bagpiper playing nearby.

We tried this Fish and chip shop whilst passing through Fort Augustus. Frozen Chips, suspect it was frozen fish as it was quite soggy. Won’t bother next time, I will try the other chippy near the petrol station.

Food was cooked to order, so expect a little wait, but it was worth it. Fish was tender and the batter light and crispy.

As I attended mid-afternoon my fish cooked to order, but it was worth the small wait. Sat by the lock watching the world go by chopming on top quality fish and chips. Sadly, my wife wouldn't let me go back for seconds...

OMG this is the worst fish & chips in the UK!!!!! Selling this rubbish to tourists will give us all a bad name, but hey - they are making a fortune by selling rubbish. I wish I had looked at the reviews first. I can't believe that some people have given good reviews, honestly do no go in. I went last night, they take your money first, then the bag of frozen chips are pored into the fryer - zero taste but no real chippy would do this. The 3 fish were tiny & came out covered in black bits which he tried to pick off then gave up & put into the box. When the mushy peas were put into a tiny coffee cup with no lid & about 1 spoon of peas I complained - £1.50, they smiled. The fish was dry & tasteless, cant be fresh. Signs on the wall state that the wait is worth the quality, what a joke.

We decided to get food from here as always busy, however do not be deceived by appearances like we were. Not only is the food expensive (wouldn’t mind if any good) but the chips were very overdone and the chicken undone. Total waste of money

Dreadful quality and service. Fish and Chips portion small. Overpriced. Gruff service. All items swimming in oil. Chips appear to be frozen. Recommend visiting another establishment.

Popped in for chips for a sunny canal lunch stop. On arrival the male fish frier growled it will be 5 minutes for chips. They were £2.50 each for a small stingy portion of oven chips and then the serving lady decided to try and rip me off by another fiver. Tried to charge me £14.50 for 3 small chips, a bottle of pop and a bottle of water instead of an already pricey £9.50. Good job I'm on the ball. Steer clear and go to Monster fish round the corner that sells real chips at a decent portion. The only thing saving this place is the great view of the canal.

Ordered food for our group yesterday, and the potion sizes were tiny. See the attached pic for what £1.50 of mushy peas buys. Large chips at £3 barley served one.

Freshly cooked to order, delicious when eaten by the canal side in the sunshine watching the boats moving up and down the locks.

Visited here lunch time Saturday 7th July 2018.

Chips cooked to death so much so that 50% of the portion of chips had no potato left in them at all. Frozen Chips and products cooked to order so a long wait which isn’t necessarily a bad thing if they actually resemble chips... sadly this wasn’t the case!

Split an order of Fish and Chips with a friend and enjoyed it while sitting in the lawn next to the canal locks on a beautiful day. Really hit the spot after a day hiking the Great Glen Way. Decent choice for a quick, filling budget meal.

Пробегали под дождем и решили погреться.Оказалось, что здесь готовят вкусную незамороженную треску.Ощущения умопомрочительные, как 25 лет назад на Баренцевом море!!!

When we visited it was really heavy rain. We arrived via the tourist info side of town and went passed another chip shop that full so we made our way down and this was the only other eatery we saw. I got chips and scotch pie, husband had fish and chips. I think it was about £12 which is pretty expensive. It didn't taste fresh and it wasn't particularly tasty but it did the job. The guy was really friendly but we were disappointed with the food. We expected fresh ingredients given where we were.

I just wanted a bag of chips before going on a boat trip. I ordered and paid, prices were about 33% above average, I guess due to location. It took around 15 minutes for my chips to be "freshly cooked" and when they came they were just awful bog standard frozen chips like you'd get at any cheap cafe. Ended up throwing most away, what a waste of money.

I ate here with my kids. I was on a tour bus and didn't have a lot of time. We thought is was just ok. A little soggy. But edible.

Popped in as I was so thirsty greeted by a very friendly lady quite happy to serve me just a bottle of drink which was only £1 the chips smelt amazing next time I will make sure I haven't already had my lunch.

Acabamos nuestro recorrido en lancha por el lago Ness sobre las 15.30 y no habíamos querido comer antes por si acaso, pensé que nos iba a costar más encontrar un sitio donde comer a esas horas, pero no, nos atendieron y prepararon nuestro fish and chips sin problemas!

Freshly cooked fish and chips. Crispy batter and lovely tasty and moist fish. Sat by the canal to eat, best fish and chips around

We're staying in the village for a few days and after a long day just fancied fish & chips for dinner.

Frozen chips - need I say more! Very disappointing. Surely something as intrinsically British as fish and chips served in an holiday environment to visiting tourists could afford more attention to detail!

the chips was ready maid frozen chips not fresh cut chippy chips and over priced. service is fast but not worth it over value and price

Quick, friendly service and fine food - it is fish & chips, so don't expect anything healthy! But it's good if you need a quick bite on a cold day.

The fish and chips are cooked fresh when you order. The fish size was generous with light breading. The fish was very tasty. Chips were okay. Prices was reasonable for the quality of food. I ate here three times in the one week I was in Fort Augustus. They have a varied menu with meat pies, sausage, etc. in addition to fish.

We ate here so we could sit by the locks. The staff were pleasant enough and the food was freshly prepared so it did take time to get our food. I was surprised at the price but later in the holiday it seemed a reasonable price, the one round the corner seemed more expensive. However, the portion of chips (proper chip shop chips in a tray for us) was quite small in my opinion for the price. A few more would have been much appreciated and gained another star.

Mid August so as you can imagine it wasn't warmest. Came off a tour boat to find all of the eateries rammed. Short walk along the canal we spied the chip shop.Didn't wait too long and all were happy with the food. Decent portions and plenty of choice.A little more expensive than you'd expect but this a tourist trap so can't expect anything else.

Sadly the food here did not live up to expectations - a dry meat pie, dry and tasteless chips and greasy fish. Good staff and great location but the food needs sorting out, I'm sorry

On ne peut pas appeler cela de la cuisine.... même pas fast food :-(Frites sèches et sauce médiocre, pour le solde indéfinissable....Rien de positif, sauf peut-être le sourire de l'employée, mais à quel prix !!!Jamais plus !!!!

There are two fish and chips store and I think the difference is this one along the canal had their fish and chips fried on the spot so it is slower to get your food versus the other store next to the gas station called mister fish and chips that serve food faster with more staff and bigger fish (for GBP 8)I came back 3 times for lunch during my visit in Loch Ness and I like the cashier lady better than the gentleman as she is friendlier. It is surprising that the store charges 10 pence for each sauce packet. I think it should be given for free. My nephew had burger and it was bad. I had onion rings and mushy peas and loved them!

Bit of a shame, this was our only Fish and Chip experience in Fort Augustus (there is another chip shop right next to the car park but they had run out of food!)Lady serving us was fairly snappy and grumpy (honestly, if you really hate your job that much why do it?), chips were as other customers have pointed out not fresh cut potatoes but frozen chips. Quality of the fish & fishcakes were actually alright though. Pricey for what it is.

Visited this shop today and witnessed racist and disgusting customer service towards Chinese visitors to this town. Woman behind the counter does not know the meaning of customer services using words like I don't speak china. You aren't from Scotland so why come here (she's clearly Spanish not even Scottish herself) the whole shop walked out due to the racist remarks and disgusting service. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!! We all visited monster fish and chips around the corner for a much better experience.

Very poor quality of chips. Tasted and looked like frozen chips. Very disappointed. Didn't find the lady very friendly at all and she spent the time on the phone and only spoke to get the money. Very rude. Wished we had looked at reviews before going and wasting our money. Chips went in the bin. It said it was a traditional chip shop but we have never had frozen chips from any traditional chip shops we have been too before . Definitely going back to Fort Augustus but never again to this chip shop

Dreadful , never seen a macaroni pie in such a poor state , seriously do not waste your money - only went as local pubs near by were so busy but dreadful food that we could not eat - try the other chippy nearby - can't be this bad

After two days without a hot meal I would have been happy to eat fish and chips from anywhere ... But here! When we entered on a busy Saturday night there was no sound of frying, no sign of any freshly cooked fish above the fryer, just the steady sound of a microwave going ping out the back.The chips tasted like the frozen ones from Iceland or Farm Foods, the fish was edible (just) and tasted as if it been freshly sourced from the same place as the chips, and the spare ribs - some form of reconstituted meat product in batter with no trace of ribs.The best I can say is the curry sauce was ok and did a good job making this all taste bearable.Apologies to all those tourists who come here looking to sample traditional fish and chips, you'd be better off eating a bag of salt and vinegar crisps and a sausage roll!We did remark "canal" when we tasted the food, or something that sounded very similar.Maybe it was just a (very) off day?

The two lady's behind the counter are a true asset to the Chippy. The macaroni pie and chips are the best I have ever tasted!

Traveling through the Great Glenn Way, we stopped there for some Fish n'Chips and burgers. We were so disappointed : the cheese in the Chips n Cheese wasn't melted (not even hot), the "burgers" were made of old and disgusting beef steak between two slices of bread... And we payed around 5£ for each meal ! Moreover, the staff was very disrespectful and not professional. We even payed for ketchup ! Don't go there !

Freshly made fish and chips and a lovely lunch by the canal -- a great option if you stop at Fort Augustus to see Loch Ness to take a cruise or just enjoy the view.

Had fish and chips , fish was fresh but batter not good .As for chips they must have been in a freezer for a few years not fresh cooked potatoes.Sorry not a good visit.

Very nice food. We didn't have much but nice all the same. Just on the loch. Nice to eat and watch the boats go by

As a proud Yorkshire man and a self confessed connoisseur of the greatest dish on the planet it is with a heavy heart I write this review.Not least because I was with some highly regarded friends and colleagues and I had chosen not this establishment as the source of the evening meal together.Quite frankly these were the WORST fish and chips I have ever tasted!It was if they had been sourced from a pile of cardboard or parchment. Even when the chips were immersed in a curry sauce, which can only be described as mustard coloured water, and the chips were almost drowned in the same, they were inedible!The fish was thin and tasteless and the vendor could not even tell us what the fish was. Suffice it to say the vast majority of the food went in the bin and at £70 for 10 lots of fish and chips, coming from Yorkshire, that was a painful act to perform.We will not use this establishment again on our next visit to this beautiful place we visit regularly.

Have tried Canalside chip shop as well as the one next to the main car park in Fort Augustus. Fresh fish was delicious and cooked to order. Batter perhaps slightly overcooked but I like it really crispy so was delighted. Chips were nothing to write home about, just bog standard out of the freezer job I think. But again cooked to order and not offensive in any way! Just not spectacular... The chips served by the other chipshop down the road were average as well, and the fish not as good, so would choose to walk up the canal and visit this one if you are in Fort Augustus.

I've read some of these reviews and it makes me wonder what shop or who wrote these reviews.. we had to wait, but assumed it would be worth it as they were getting cooked from fresh.. wow what a shock we got, fish was over cooked and Inedible. And for the chips they were frozen chips taken out the frezzer and shoved in a deep fryer.. again inedible swell.. would not recommend this chippy to anyone.. .

Sunny day in Fort Augustus, combined with some other establishments being shut or having poor menu choices led us to opt to have F & Chips, canal side. Great fun, lots of activity at the Caledonian lock side location- boats going through. The haddock was chunky, of good size and freshly cooked. Chips were lovely too- & the local Inn provided a good drink to complete the experience. Recommended. Fish £5.00 Chips £2-3.00 a portion.

Really good food, cooked fresh and very tasty. Pretty good value for money, and conveniently located right next to the locks!

Got here right before they closed for the evening and placed a couple of orders for takeaway. The fish was fried up while I waited. I'm not a fish and chips expert but they seemed fine and we were satisfied. Would return.

I've been looking forward to fish and chips for a while so to find Canal Side chip shop on the canal we thought we would give it a try. I think the best part of our meal was sitting on the lock wall watching the boats sailing to Loch Ness. This i'll do another time with chips from one of the other chip shops.

We only ordered chips from here, we had to wait for them to be cooked but they were not very nice and we threw most of them away

Bought some chips and deep fried haggis from this place. The people that run it are complacent in the knowledge that they are fortunate enough to be in the middle of a tourist resort and right by the canal. Very miserable attitude and also had the cheek to charge 10p for 1 sachet of tomato ketchup, after spending £14 with her - advice - go to the chippy on the main drag - Monster Chippy.

Having brought haggis pie needed some chips! As chip shop is on canal thought I'd give it a try. As food is cooked fresh waiting isn't a problem, but have to say chips weren't worth wait

We had to wait for our order to be freshly cooked, but as the sign says, the management feel it is better this way. No argument from me. Then, sit canal side and eat, we did on a fine sunny afternoon. Jolly good!

Unusually for a chip shop, this one has nothing pre-cooked waiting for customers to buy it - so it's not exactly "fast food" but with it all being made to order, it is deliciously fresh.Usual chip shop selection, decent prices, friendly staff, and the wait is only a few minutes, so worth it for the very nice food.

A more than decent chip with a good selection of fish, pies and meats. Not a great choice for a vegetarian, but the portion size of the onion rings was impressive.

5 of us got meals and it was all cooked fresh. The fish that I got was the best I have tasted in a long time.

For many years I've been doing a few annual trips to Fort Augustus, sometimes with family, sometimes with friends and occasionally on my own. Every time I visited, the canal side chip shop was definitely on my list of places to eat because everything was cooked fresh as you ordered and you were greeted with a happy smile and often very friendly banter... That was then.... Now is a different matter! Ever since it changed hands I it's gone down hill! But I was determined to stay loyal even though you get ignored while you are in there... Well never again! I called in today as the cottage I was in is close to it. I opened the door and there was one man reading the paper looking totally uninterested, the second man stood up and took my order, a simple order but after 3 attempts to say the word "peas" he said "No"! At this point the one reading the paper looked up and said Yes we do then went back to his paper.Now if this was cooked fresh as I ordered and as stated on the board in the window then they must have a super fast fryer because the man went round the corner, there was a little noise and the next thing there was my food, he said £5.50, I had a fiver in my hand so gave him that and was about to go in my pocket for the 50p when I thought that I'd better check the peas were there first since he clearly didn't know what peas were! He started going off about the 50p, I said I was just checking the food first to which he went on again about the 50p! I said OK OK here's your 50p!They are rude, ignorant, don't speak English, and the food? Chips used to be fresh cut but now they are frozen, they were hard as though they has been in the fryer far too long (not crispy, actually crunchy hard!), they were tasteless and too expensive Luckily there is a brand new chip shop in the village right between the garage and car park that has friendly staff who laugh and joke with you and who actually use freshly cut freshly fried potatoes for their chips! My allegiance is now with the other chip shop and I will never again frequent this rude establishment with their terrible food.I wanted to give this place one last chance but it's had it now. Such a shame that this places reputation has gone down hill

I had chips and chicken nuggets when I visited and yes you had to wait a little but that was only because it was all made to order. The portion size was good especially for the price however there was only one size of chip orders. The guys in there were really pleasant as well.

A good local chippy, with food cooked fresh to order. The chips are crisp on the outside and soft and fluffy inside. Lots of other local specialities are on the menu.

Having been disappointed with another pub , went for chip shop fish and chips, chips were dry , I did think they may be frozen not fresh , living by seaside with proper traditional fish and chips , this was disapointing, lady in shop too busy talking on phone in foreign language to serve couple who came in behind us , this came over as rude and not good customer service, King rib over cooked .
