Well, I have been to some places that have made me feel unwelcome but never a chip shop. Chippy bank in Ulverston has a separate counter service or a sit down area that charges a premium to sit and eat. My partner and I wanted to enjoy our food at a table so we went inside, my partner sat down while I went to the counter to order. I stood there waiting to be served while three members of staff (two men and one elderly lady cleaning around) just looked me up and down and didn’t even acknowledge me. In the mean time the men were happy to serve local customers at the counter service. I will add that the chippy was very quiet with hardly any customers. A good six or seven minutes later the cleaning lady abruptly said “yes?” and I ordered two fish, chips and peas at a hefty £24. She had no idea how to use the card payment machine and was about to charge me twice for our meal. She didn’t wash her hands, plated them up and shouted “They are here at the counter!” The food was mediocre and totally not worth the money. This establishment obviously does not like outsiders, I would not recommend going here but if you do decide to use the Chippy Bank, dress like a local and not like a walker, a local shop for local people only. This horrible experience sadly spoilt our holiday in Ulverston.

We've been here many times. Sometimes we take food away, other times we sit in. This time we sat in, knowing we pay that bit extra for the privilege. However, prices have soared since our last visit. Very expensive food and we were surprised at the lack of service. Anywhere else when eating in, you get table service. Not here. We had to order at the counter, where there was no sense of being made to feel welcome. It felt as though the order was too much trouble (3 meals in total.) After I ordered the food, I sat back down, then was soon told "Your food's ready". I had to go back and do the waitering myself. The food was good but the gloomy mood of the staff and those extortionate prices are not an invitation to return. This chippy used to be very busy. On this visit nobody else was inside. I can't say I'm surprised! If you expect customers to return, at least have the decency to be pleasant. That costs nothing! Our money will spend elsewhere.

Paid 4.70 for a small portion of very yellow chips and a warm, but not hot Holland's pie. Not the best value I've ever had, if I'm honest. Both pie and chips tasted a bit bland. Service OK but not cheerful. I suppose you can't expect much for under a fiver, but I'm tempted to try elsewhere next time. I suppose they have little competition now that Bar Conti, along the street appears closed 🤔

As with other reviews, won’t be going again due to the rude blonde haired old woman serving. Have been once a week for the last 2 months, but will go elsewhere now. Not the first time she’s been rude or messed up our order. Easy to overlook it until I overheard her mocking me to another customer as I left. Seems like she’s nice to the regulars, but not to anyone else.

Not impressed with the poor service and terrible fish received from Chippy bank. The staff serving were very rude and lack any customer service skills. Staff were very snappy in ordering us where to stand to be served. We wasn't the only customers to be treated this way. They serve regulars ok but not anyone new. Very unprofessional and we will go elsewhere in future! As for the food the fish was terrible! If you can find it underneath the concrete mash of batter. They can't be bothered taking the skin off the fish either. First chippy we've ever been to where the skin remains. There was more skin then fish. I gave two stars because the chips were actually ok but don't expect to receive value for money because although the chips were good, they were scarce! We won't be returning

Always liked the chippy bank, last couple of times it's been underwhelming. The fish wasn't very tasty, had to put lots of salt and vinegar to see if that worked, fish also a bit greasy and they seem to have lost chip shop chips or changed the way there done? Dont know if this make sense but when I finished eating I felt it didn't fill the want for the fish and chips tick.

Brilliant chippy. Perfect chips every time. A lot of chip shops nowadays seem to take your order, give you a number and then have you stand around waiting somewhere awkwardly for them to call you up for collection. I find it slow and unnecessary. Chippy Bank have you queue around the shop, take your order and prepare it in front of you as you wait and then finally pay. Exactly as it should be. Friendly staff. Very clean and as I said, perfect chips. Reasonable prices too as well as generous portion sizes.

Always nice fish and chips served here, you can tell the potatoes used are of good quality,& the fish served is fresh plus the frying oil I would say is probably changed regularly which makes a huge difference to the quality. I eat the curry sauce here but I've had better. Perhaps not as bigger portion size as some other chippy's but on the whole very nice fish and chips

Stopped here on the off chance and due to the large queue waiting. Took a while for the queue to go down (luckily it wasn't raining as it was outside). We were shocked at the price of fish, compared to down our way this was cheap! The chips were a little overcooked and the fish really needed draining for a little longer as the amount of grease in the paper actually ran off but the fish inside was really lovely.

We decided to eat in and ordered Haddock and Chips and a cup of tea. The tea was lukewarm, and the fish and chips had clearly been cooked a long time before we ate. The fish was rather dry and the chips limp and unappetising. This was surprising given that the place was rather busy. It was disappointing because the last time we ate here over a year ago, it was good quality.

Took my friend here thinking that she wanted fish and chips but she ended up having a cheeseburger whilst I was on a vegetarian goal so I ordered chips, cheese and gravy (£5.60). Wow, never look down on a simple dish! This took me back to my childhood memories being brought up in a takeaway and having gravy chips as my supper. The additional cheese was a 'luxury' to what I used to have. It was very filling and it lasted me the whole day even after the hike to Sir John Barrow Monument and walking back to Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre, I didn't need dinner. Great service and reasonable price.

The Chippy Bank has an excellent reputation- so I was really looking forward to a good meal after a long hard bike ride. Visited at 7pm on a Saturday night … wasn’t too busy & didn’t have too long to wait. The haddock was very good (so it should be at £4.50) … chips were small & bitty, soggy & lukewarm…. Mushy peas were also lukewarm & tasteless. Sorry - next time will be trying elsewhere.
