Used to be a good chippy but since it’s been taken over I have to say worst fish and chips I’ve ever had. Soggy batter and the smallest “large” portion of chips I’ve ever seen.

Just had my usual large sausage & chips, to say how disappointed I was is an understatement, when the new owners took over the chips were lush & you had a decent size portion, today(4th)I was lucky to actually have a chip with potato in it rather than just a crispy shell, & the sausage could've been cooked a bit more. Sorry but we won't be back.

I ordered a takeaway for collection of fishcake, scampi, chips and mushy peas on a Thursday evening. Both people I spoke to were friendly and helpful and the food looked fine. However, upon getting home and eating the fishcake, and especially the scampi, tasted chemically and like it had freezer burn! The next day both my Friend and I have been violently ill with sickness and dihorrea! Maybe we were just unlucky with what we had but BE WAREY EATING FROM HERE!!!

Pre-pandemic, this takeaway/restaurant was a favourite, and used to be packed lunchtime. It has since changed hands. Today the restaurant was nearly empty. It was spotlessly clean, the service quick and friendly, and the cod and chips my wife and I had was really fresh, well-cooked and great value. I think it deserves support. (I did not think to take a photo of the food, but the dark mess shown on this page looks nothing like what we were given.)

I don’t know if you guys actually know what salt and pepper chips are. Your “version” had no peppers, no onions/spring onions, no chillis just some added spice ontop that wasn’t even spread out evenly 🤣 do not recommend, something that’s so easily made.

I always pick up a pensioners fish & chips with mushy peas every Friday, for my father-in-law, who absolutely enjoys them. However yesterday I decided that I fancied fish & chips too, so bought some for myself and my husband later that evening. Well we absolutely enjoyed them so much, that we both even mentioned it this morning, so I decided to leave a review (I don't do this often!) Don't hesitate to pop in and try as the owner and his staff are lovely too.

When I heard Chippies Plaice had new owners I was a bit concerned... However visited today and although the service needs to be a little 'streamlined', the fish and chips was exceptional. Freshly fried cod was beautifully cooked, very white and thin crisp batter. Chips were golden and tasty, and not too greasy. Overall I was very pleasantly surprised that the new owners have been able to maintain my high expectations! Cooking excellent, service good, just needs a tiny tweaking.

Not as good as it used to be. Food is still good but the friendly atmosphere has been destroyed, seemingly by the man they called "Bob" who was doing the frying. Everyone was treading on eggshells around his stroppy, storming around. What makes it worse is that he was the weak link in the chain. Waited for ages for him to get his act together whilst the poor young lad and ladies serving were left to deal with the aftermath. Won't be going back after years of custom under the old owners. Bob needs to sort out the way he acts and works in front of customers or find something else to do as the business will suffer.

The new owners are very nice people, but unfortunately the chips are not to the same standard they used to be, every time I’ve had them they have been undercooked and not crispy/fluffy as they should be. I would personally rather wait in the queue for another five minutes and have the food cooked correctly rather than getting out quick and being disappointed with the meal.

I was a little concerned when I noticed that new management had taken over, but I can assure you there has been absolutely no negative impact on the quality of the food nor the service.

Used to be the best chip shop in Newton Abbot. Now under new management it appears that quality has taken a severe hit. Chips undercooked, batter below average and everything is very dry. Suspect they might be using frozen ingredients. Very disappointing, will be buying elsewhere in future.

We used to love this chip shop and we knew it had changed hands recently. We have tried it twice since and it is awful. The sausages were cold and the chips were undercooked. We did not enjoy it at all, Very disappointed. The service was also very slow. We will have to look for somewhere else.

Waited for a good while. Expected a freshly cooked piece of cod. Previously good so I did not open the box. I could not see the piece of cod I was given. The two female staff spoke quietly together. I was given an old piece of cod in batter, that looked like it had been put aside for ditching. It was horrible and overcooked and stale. The chips were slightly undercooked. They have lost a Customer. I will never go back again. Terrible and shoddy quality

This has always been an excellent chip shop in the past,... we drove (past many others) to get them because you were never let down. However, our visit a few days ago was distinctly average, the fish and chips, while "ok" were not the usual excellent standard. Chips seems a little undercooked and fish batter not as crispy as usual. Have heard rumour of new owners... if so... just do EXACTLY the same as the previous ones! Might give it one more chance, please don't let me down!!!

See Photo...We have never been let down before with service or quality, always good service and fish and tasty chips to die for..Total cost today £21.

But anyway I want to say to everyone that these really are the best fish n chips in Devon. We used to live in Teignmouth and always made the trip here, but now we have moved to NA so hopefully will be back eating our favourite meal soon. The BATTER used is absolutely the best batter in the world. Thank you Chippies. X

Great chips, been going there for years. Got some chips and the veggie burger and curry sauce as I was told they were vegan friendly, the veggie burger was good but looks like it was bound with egg, the curry sauce was very good! They did not take card, which was disappointing considering the current pandemic, but there's a cashpoint around the corner which is pretty convenient.

We went as a family of 8 and all had a lovely meal. Very good traditional food. Pub grub done well. The chips were very nice. I can definitely recommend the steak and ale pie and fish and chips. Others in our party had the gammon which also looked delicious and the steak. Very cosy inside and friendly service. They were helpful with my partner's nut allergy. Plenty of free car parking. We will definitely try again.

Rainy day, no menu visible from outside so we went in. Whilst the server was busy chatting we looked at the big board, but there were limited offerings for lunch so when she turned her attention to us, I asked if this was everything they offered (thinking there might be a written menu as well or something). She told me, fairly rudely, that that was everything they did and if we wanted something else we could go somewhere else, "not that I am trying to get rid of you.. ha ha", And so we did just that. Cant tell you what the food was like, but we did have a very nice lunch elsewhere!
