Cheapest in the area for a reason. Plaice was watery and tasteless, batter was thin and oily. Tasted like over used oil, perhaps because it was the end of the day. Chips were nice. Took visitors who were very disappointed as they were expecting Brixham fresh fish. Sorry owner but this was our experience.

As all restaurants at the seafront seemed to be full, we went for the chipper, and we were not disappointed. Both fish and chips were well cooked, but I still don't like mushy peas. My husband said they wereOK. We got a big cup of strong black tea with the meal. The place was clean.

Visiting Torbay regularly I have always taken great delight on one day of visiting Chandlers for a "haddock buttie" as they have been one of the few to do haddock in the area as opposed to cod.

Thought we would have a fish supper for our tea, as recommended by the guy that drives the land train, It is all cooked fresh and was hot and plentiful, what let it down for me was the place did not look clean, there was food all over the floor and the tiles where greasy, I asked for a lemon wedge with mine, they did not have any,

Clean modern chippy that cooks in oil which is my preference over dripping. tell you where the fish is from, and also the variety of potato. Used it twice and both times fresh and tasty. Best on the harbour and near plenty of benches

Can't believe what happened here I was served fish and chips in a takeaway box the server put vinegar all over them, I told her I didn't want vinegar on my food and requested fresh food she then put all the chips that were served to me back in the chip fat ..... What can you say if that's going on in front of you so not right no apology just a very put out person!!!! Is this legal with all the h& s regulations that are now enforced on us I ask myself?

Llamado aquí para el almuerzo y no me decepcionó, el pescado y las patatas fritas eran excepcionales y a un precio razonable de £5.25. Pescado fresco excelente en un precioso servicio, en la masa se funde crujientes patatas fritas boca y real. Sin duda recomiendo este lugar. Tenía el curry salsa en vez de guisantes y fue muy agradable.

Has changed ownership since our last visit, last year. The cod special was very nice, cooked to order, so nice and hot. Think a little more organisation is needed though, would have like my cup of tea while waiting and not served at the same time as the meal, also, perhaps the cutlery and bread and butter, beforehand aswell. It was very busy and the staff were working very hard. A good sign!

Probably the cheapest fish & chip restaurant, and the food was quite nice, but the staff were poor, serving peas and curry sauce at least 5 minutes before the food arrived.....these were then changed for hot peas and curry sauce! Also staff were confused as to how many teas we wanted, and then the meals arrived several minutes apart!! Don't seem to know how to get their act together!!

Strange way of pricing food. Asked for what I wanted to then be asked for a couple of quid more than I, thought it would be because of the odd meal deal. Queried it with the lad on till who you pay when ordering before collecting. Given a new price, still not right. Eventually sorted. Then find my change consists of coins from Cameroon. Same shape as UK coins but not legal tender. On third request to change coins the lad on the till seemed to understand that I, would like sterling not any other currency. The food was quite good, but the experience of pricing and ordering has put me off a return.

Be prepared to wait to be even served and then wait to receive your order, while we waited for our order there were several people waiting to be served while the three staff stood ignoring them. Food was good portions average but check prices as main menu when priced against offers could be cheaper.

we enjoyed our take away fish & chips. we had to wait quite a while for the fish to cook and there was a queue, despite staff working hard it was very busy. Fairly priced with tasty hot food. The woman serving was cheerful and helpful, there was a miserable bloke working there who quite rudely "told me to move over" but then he was a very fat man who shouldn't be trying to push his way through customers!

We have had chips from this place on previous visits to Torquay, and they have been very good. We visited one lunch time last week and found the shop had been refitted and looked very impressive. However, we were not impressed with the chips. The shop was quiet and the chips looked as if they had been reheated, as they were dark and overcooked. We should have taken them back. Disappointed.

The fish was soggy and pretty inedible, chips are ok but wouldn't eat here again. Couldn't really take it back either as I had taken it home and to take it back would have been a nuisance so just threw it away. Waste of money. Shame as this place years ago use to be very good.

Friendly service. We had take away fish and chips and it was freshly cooked and hot. We had to wait a few minutes while it was cooked but this was no problem, especially as we were invited to take a seat while we waited. They do an option of a small or larger portion fish and chips - a great idea as not all people will want the larger version. They have a wide selection of food on offer, and inside seating.

I tipped up here at 6pm on a rainy December night with 6 old age pensioners and our driver. Lots of dementia, a wheelchair and zimmers and not a little confusion and deafness amongst our party. We were welcomed in and they stayed late for us, offering hot drinks on the house and an extra cup of tea for the road when one old lady declared it was all she wanted! The chips were delicious, the batter so thin and crisp and the fish fresh and firm. Great selection of soft drinks and pickles and the hot drinks were great - piping hot. WIshing the lovely owner all the best for the refurbishment she is planning next year. Just don't refurbish the fish and chips - already great! Brilliant location too, overlooking the harbour.

Been before and had nice food, called yesterday to get some take away was told the had just put son fresh chips in to cook so would be a few minutes which was fine. Ordered 3 large portions of chips which were presented in open polystyrene trays no way the could be called large! OK so this is a harbour side chip shop so you expect a premium price. But not the terrible quality of the chips they were covered in oil to the point they were almost slimy and were also undercooked kids ate about a dozen chips each rest went in the bin. One last comment is I asked them to wrap them but the young man that served me clearly did not have a clue. Probably the worst chips I've had in Torquay. Had better there before but sign says new owners don't know if that's true or they just had people on who don't know how to cook but at £2.30 a potion you expect much better, my advice is avoid.

If you're taking in the sights of Torquay Harbour and start to feel hungry, treat yourself to some delicious fresh Fish and Chips at "Chandlers Chippy." The shop is basic, as people say, but spotlessly clean and tidy with an old style ambiance and the staff are friendly. While enjoying the harbour views from our table, we savoured a generous plateful of lightly battered Cod with yummo Chips, mushy peas, bread and butter and a large icy drink for just 5 Pounds and it was excellent,.....pity I live in Brisbane.

The Chandlers Chippy was recommended to us by the Land Train driver and it didn't disappoint. We ate on the premises which were basic but spotless. The meals were piping hot, thick, flaky cod with not too much batter served with perfect chips and mushy peas. The mug of tea was excellent also. We were told that the proprietors have only been there 3 months and they deserve to succeed. The only bad point is that we live over 100 miles away.

Looking for a place to have a light lunch while strolling Torquay harbour area last week, and popped into Chandlers. Very basic place with simple decor but very clean. Staff friendly. We had the oap special for £5 - fish, chips, very nice mushy peas, bread and butter, and large mug of tea. We didn't have to wait very long, maybe because we were the only people in there at the time. We really enjoyed the meal, fish and chips both very tasty. Would certainly visit again.

Ordered 2 large chips to take away... Don't know if you only get good service from inside but chips are absolutely tiny! Wouldn't feed a child most people order two large for small families as a couple we're greedy haha but that was so not enough! Every chip was crispy and not in a good way I love Barton chippy crispy chips but these were hard!!! (annoying we only tried this place because Barton was queued out the door... Lovely of the lady to offer to wrap!! Just give us a tray don't worry if we want the chips wrapped or anything and when we say excuse me (about to ask if she could wrap) just turn your back and walk away... Sorry won't be back Greasy, hard lack of chips! Nough said... People I would advise Hanburys or pauls plaice dependant on taste preferences They are real chippys...not scraps that should go with a kebab when your too drunk to notice.... 0 stars chandlers I adored you as a teenager your a disgrace to the previous owners name!

Visited Torquay last weekend, fancied traditional "fish & chip" supper in paper - so glad we chose Chandlers Chippy from the selection of places along the Parade! Best cod & chips we've had in ages! We had take away - served by very polite young man, had to wait for fish & chips to be freshly cooked (a plus in our book when asked to wait, as can't stand re-heated fish & chips like so many places do!). I didn't think I was that hungry, but everything was so nice I ate the whole portion! Nothing left at all for the seagulls sitting patiently by us as we sat on the wall opposite eating our supper and watching a fantastic sunset! Perfect fish, batter, & chips (not frozen either!) and all piping hot! 10 out of 10 from us, and we'll definitely have your fish & chips again next time we visit Torquay! Well done & thanks.

Popped in for lunchtime seaside fish and chips. The place was very busy so no seating. An excessive wait for food to take away. Nothing wrong with portion size. Chips were good but the battered cod was tasteless amd over powered by extremely thick and soggy batter. The while experience was a disappointing let down. Ive certainly had far better fried and nattered fish from other establishments. I would neither recommend nor return. Reasonable prices, unreasonable food quality and waiting time.

Our children were hungry so rather than go to a restaurant to wait we decided to get take away fish and chips. It was chaos. there was a queue for the take away which can be expected during the holidays and there were a few people in the restaurant. It took 35 mins after ordering to get our food. As far as I could see there were two members of staff one serving both the take away and restaurant and another member of staff cooking. Other people were getting annoyed and one woman wanted her money back. They also couldn't offer us a carrier bag for the meals so we couldn't go over to the pavilion as planned as we had a toddler, a bike and a pushchair with us with one spare hand to carry food.Despite the service the food was great and reasonably priced. I think had there been more staff it would have been a nice experience, instead it was very stressful.

It was a beautiful evening in Torquay, I went to Chandlers about 18.45. ...I walked across the road and sat by the inner harbour to eat.my supper. I really enjoyed them! The service was ever so friendly, I can't see how anyone can beat this chippy!!! They told me the only day they close was on Christmas Day ... they also made a point of saying the potatoes used were fresh and not frozen. It was a lovely way to spend early evening...

Went here for tea with the family the first night of our holiday a large chips is 2.30 which is about normal price but they were not the best chips I have had they were slightly undercooked in places and to greasy for my liking.the staff seemed pleasant enough If there is no where else to eat then it's not to bad but it wouldn't be my first choice

Having been trying to eat a bit more healthier foods through the Summer but really fancied some chips and curry sauce on a recent day trip! Not usually a big fan of chips but these were superb! So good, my husband and I went back for a second portion and a battered sausage! Lovely. Proper grub!

What a decent chippy. Emphasis is on the superb quality of the fish and chips rather than the basic yet very clean decor. The fish and chips were fresh, tasty and perfectly cooked and the portions very generous. A great place for high quality food on the harbour. Visiting is essential.

We were recommended this chippy by a family member who stayed in Torquay, and it didn't disapoint. Located right on the harbour fresh fish and good chips - with all the crispy bits!

Found this chippy 3 years ago and couldn't wait to get to the side of the marina to get a cone of chips and sit on the front looking at the boats and the viewWell just like last time the chips were fresh and tasted amazing. Easily the best one in the area

Well I've read the reviews on here. I live in Torquay and often will go to chandlers for fish and chips, you must have curry sauce to. It's always well cooked and definitely not greasy. I can only think that the poor reviews are from premises who supply fish and chips but not to the standard of the food here. It's all cooked fresh.

Nice old fashioned type fish and chip restaurant with a good view of the harbour. Generous portions, large menu, clean and good value for money. Couldn't really ask for anything more.

We were visiting the Living Coasts attraction just around the corner and thought we'd try a local chippy, not disappointed at all, some of the best chips we've ever had.

The Dumpling is a fantastic pub. I have held two events here, a baby shower and sadly a wake. The buffet food was great and included gluten free options as requested. The manager and staff are very accommodating and passionate about bringing the local community and people together. We have had a fair few meals here over the last 10 years since moving to Shiphay and this pub holds a special place in my heart. It has allowed me to meet lots of people living in the community and those who don’t. I feel comfortable walking into this pub on my own and if none of my fellow local drinkers are around, I can sit myself at the bar and have a chat and laugh with the friendly, helpful bar staff as well as chatting to new people. The pub gives back in so many ways by supporting the community and also holds a weekly coffee morning (where my elderly mum in law has met new friends that she now goes out with and has been a life line for her), live music events and a great out door area when the weather is good. If you want a drink, something to eat or somewhere to hold an event I recommend giving the Dumpling a try.

The worse fish and chips I have ever had, heard so much about this place from TV Fish Town..... The fish didnt smell fresh at all, all brown and looked crap. The Batter was terrible, soft and mushy and the chips under cooked and all we had seemed to be the ends. id give it a zero
