I went with my 84 year old mother for an evening meal. She wanted smaller portions but “pensioner” specials stop being served at 3 pm! We were served at the table and the service was functional and brief. When it was time to pay we were expected to go and stand at the till , where we were ignored by the person serving and it was left to me to pay the bill on behalf of my mum who needed to sit down again while we were waiting: Suggestions: Either have order & pay at the bar or table service not a confused hybrid of both. Recognise pensioners do go out after 3 pm Don’t expect seniors to stand and wait to pay or assume the able bodied will be paying. Send all your staff on a customer service course.

Ate in the 'restaurant' in March and found the place to be almost devoid of any character or 'atmosphere'. All of the customers herded into one corner at the front with minimal privacy as a result. Ordered two small portions of cod and chips which arrived so quickly that the fish must have already been standing, not freshly cooked which should be expected in a restaurant. The impression was that they were not interested in the customers' eating experience. The batter on the fish was not crisp and the chips were tasteless and again not freshly cooked. The tea was the best part of the meal. Despite this experience we returned a week later to get more cod and chips from the take-away counter with a view to finishing the cooking in our air fryer. Standing fish again supplied. 10 minutes in the air fryer crisped up the fish and soggy chips nicely but the chips were again tasteless. Conclusion is that Chesters may be well past it's best.

A take away chip shop trying to be a restaurant which they are failing at Firstly waiting staff should dress appropriately without mid rifts on show, it’s a restaurant not a fashion show. Staff should be able to use the ordering system, table booked for 7:00pm. Ordered food at 7:05. 40 minutes later the scantly dressed waitress informed us that she forgot to press the “order” button and our order would be another 8 mins. When our food arrived all servings had salad and peas on the plates, we ordered 2 servings without salad or peas. Whilst the food was very nice the service was shocking and we won’t be eating in again. It’s a chip shop and we will buy take away agin but won’t be eating in again

The restaurant owner's steal the staff's tips, so if you think that you're tipping the waiting staff for their hard work, it's all going in the owner's fat pockets (who think they are the chip shop mafia), even the cash tips. It's shameful on the part of the owners and sad for the employees who are being paid NMW. If the owners are reading this, stop stealing from your employees, it's disgusting and SHAMEFUL!

Ordered gluten free haddock and chips to take away. Short wait for order but delicious food was worth waiting for! Recommend a visit. I used this handy food outlet again for a gluten free take out meal. Staff were friendly and chatty! Jan 2023. Ordered another takeaway, gluten free. Short wait while it was cooked especially, restaurant must have been busy as car park was full at front, not many waiting for takeaway orders. Saturday May 2023 Enjoyed another takeaway meal, gluten free. Car park was full so restaurant busy but not takeaway section! 20 July 2023 Had an appointment locally so decided to buy lunch before went home. Ordered gluten free fish & chips in box with mushy peas & 2 sausages for my husband. We shared the chips. November 2023 Nothing changed, still very tasty takeaway meals. February 2024 still lovely freshly cooked, gluten free meals!!

We are quite regular customers however on our recent visit the restaurant was very cold people keeping their coats on throughout meal and the plates food was served on also cold needless to say food by each mouthful was getting colder. A small heater was visible but not giving enough heat to warm a budgie cage. It’s not the cheapest fish and chips but best go in warmer temperatures

Great place. the food is beautiful we had a mixture of meals from fish and chips which is huge!!! To burgers and cheese and onion fry-it. All the food was delicious and tasted super fresh. Not a huge menu but I’m sure there’s something for everyone on there. We also had a range of drinks from Pepsi max to an IPA and a shandy. Prices are very reasonable for the size of the meals. Free carpark outside too.

We visit here fairly regularly and the food is consistently great. We have never had a bad meal in here. When I visit a fish and chip shop for takeaway I very rarely have the fish, but here, in Chesters, its all about the lovely flakey white fish in crispy batter! The chips are good too! The staff are always polite and helpful. I would highly recommend a visit here for some high quality fish and chips.

Family get together before Christmas, lunchtime booking & it was freezing in the restaurant. It did warm up as time went on & more people arrived. Food all really nice, I had large cod & chips, very good. The service was just a bit off, 1 order (pie) was wrong, brought fish instead. We ordered 3 curry, only 1 arrived. One member of the party had tea, served in a mug with tea bag & hot water! Nowhere to put tea bag (no side plate or saucer). Surely in restaurant it should be in tea pot? Enjoyed the food (as did whole party) but service could have been better.

Service good However the smaller chips and fish £12 very small and couldn't see much diff to the "large" at £14 unfortunately. Smallest chips and curry sauce was £5. Unfortunately not at all good value and the chips were so dry.

Sometimes a bit hit and miss with the food, chips can be a bit 'bitty' but I guess that depends on the size of potatoes and it's a personal choice that I don't like lots of little crispy bits. Fish is lovely but sometimes seems on the small size for the price, but fish prices have risen substantially so it's expected. Always helpful staff and good gluten free options and staff give a confidence of cooking gluten free safely. Shame the loyalty cards were discontinued but understandably maintaining competitive prices is a priority in an increasingly tough industry.

Called into the take away for fish and chips at 7.pm last Saturday Service was quick and efficent. The portions were very generous. However the batter was tough and leathery and the beautiful piece of fish was dry and very chewy. Couldnt eat it at all. Suspect it had been standing for a long time. Chips were tasteless too. Very disappointing especially at £11 each. Wont be going back.

Even better, the food - cheese and onion pie, chicken kebab - was tasty and hot. Our expectations were low and our impressions were high. I can see why it's a local favourite.

Good food, a bit pricey but you get what you pay for I guess, cod and chips were nice enough, calimari was too, kebabs were good aswell. Wasn't over busy but felt like everyone had to whisper, no atmosphere and was happy to leave, which is a shame as we called for a pudding from the shop on the way home instead.

Fish and chips is always exceptional at Chesters which is why we keep coming back for our (sometimes) weekly treat. The staff are exceptional and the service is fantastic and even when there is a queue, they seem to remember us and even remember our regular order that can switch between plaice or haddock depending on what I am in the mood for 😋 Thank you everyone at Chesters!

We ordered a small meal after coming out of the pub. My partner ordered a fishcake and received a fish rissole (totally different). There was no mention on the menu that she should have ordered a Yorkshire Fishcake, and to add to it the staff were sniggering as they served her, clearly knowing that she was going to get the wrong thing. And when the order was read back to us it was muttered as not a Yorkshire fishcake. The food was dry and lacklustre, and WAY OVERPRICED. DO NOT SHOP HERE, save your money for a proper fish and chip shop.

Food tasted fine but very disappointing portion size for chips. You get more chips from McDonald’s across the road for a much smaller price too. Recieved less than a handful of cheesy chips for £4.50. Also, had about 5 flakes of cheese on all at the bottom of the box therefore none of the chips were actually cheesy.

First visit to Chesters last night and I can see why there are so many positive reviews! The gluten free batter was perfect. Very crispy and a pleasant change from the usual gluten free batter we see in other establishments. They could even offer a vegan mayo to my wife when we asked who is intolerant to egg. Above and beyond! Staff were very friendly and couldn't do enough for us. Would highly recommend a visit to anyone but particularly for their gluten free choices which were amazing. Keep up the good work!

Large cod size for £8 was ridiculous, fish taste was beautiful but it was the size of a large battered sausage at best! I did question if it was a large cod at the time and was told yes and when I phoned to make them aware of my disappointment they knew who I was immediately. The shop after speaking to upper management (as I was speaking to a manager I had been told) did offer me a 20% discount when I next went but I kindly told them I wouldn’t be returning, even for £6.40 with the 20% I had been offered would you? The guy on the phone was very apologetic about my experience and told me the fish was weighed out at 12oz and advised me to try haddock rather than cod as they are flatter and look bigger! Not the response I was particularly looking for! But…… you live and learn! Ps…. The fish was only broke in half not been eaten at all and size judgment wise compare it to the fork?

I dont even usually leave reviews even bad ones I own various businesses myself but when my partner came back with this for 2 adults and 1 very small kids meal I was fuming I am not short of money but the point of it really made me not enjoy the food one bit.

Excellent eatery for fish and chips. They have extended their fare to kebabs and similar which, although not tried, seems to look good. The fish and chips with all the accoutrements is of the best quality and taste. Service and atmosphere is great with a family dining experience. If I had to give a (unfair?) gripe over the last few years it would be that the fish portions were much bigger in the past but now more pedestrian.
