This is my go to chippy. Food is always hot and tasty. I even got a free little plate of chips while I waited for my order!

We checked the reviews and thought we would give this a try. We ordered the Haddock, it was heavily battered, and the fish tasteless. It wasn't bad just not good. Less batter and better quality fish would make a huge difference. The girls serving were uninterested and unattentive There are plenty of alternatives maybe try one of those!

A great and still very trad chippy. As clean as a hospital. And the food is A1. Fish freshly cooked, chippy also and proper mushy peas. My handicapped son says that the curry sauce is out of this world. A lovely walk from the centre of Altrincham, via several dearer restaurants and tree- lined streets. Owner and staff very welcoming. Not cheap but no chippy is now. When I was 12, in Oldham, on way home from choir practice, a local coke fired chippy, sold a bag if chips for ONE OLD penny. Happy days long gone. Mainly due to economic greed and unsatisfied people.

I ordered battered cod fish, a small chip portion and baked beans to takeaway and was not disappointed. The fish was freshly cooked and the chips were perfect. The large pot of baked beans is a perfect side-order imo. Recommended.

It has that Je Ne Sais Quoi or Δεν ξέρω τι! If you pardon my awful Greek, you’ll remember that as part of my endeavour to find my personal favourite chippie, I needed to sample the offering from Costa. As always, at the time of writing they were competing with ‘The Good Catch’. I was looking for a batter fish that matched my tastes. It turns out I like my fish well seasoned prior to being battered. The chips at Costa are bright outside and fluffy inside. The mushy peas a tad bit runny but tasty as you’d hope for. All in all, I’m happy to report that there’s another worthy contender for the title of my favourite chippie and closer to home to boot.

Really lovely fish and chips. Whilst we waited for him to cook us a fresh fish we had a small platter of chips (free) the food tastes amazing. All fresh. Nothing seen on the side bar a few sausages which is nice to know that your food hasn’t been sat for hours before serving. Reasonable prices too! Also it was very very clean! Highly recommend.

Had friends round for a catch up and decided to have fish and chips rather than our normal Chinese take away. We all had fish and chips which were absolutely delicious. The batter on the fish was light and crispy and the chips were excellent too! We have used Costa's a few times, sometimes the quality does vary, but generally it is a positive experience.

I opened my food when I got home and found that the mushy peas had been poured all over the chips, and my fish was stuck on top. So I had a plate full of soggy chips mixed with mushy peas. I’ll never go here again...total waste of £20!

The food here has always been awful. My partner picked up from here by accident last night, and true to form it made me sick. The chips were soggy with so much grease, half of them inedibly overcooked, the fish over-battered and little fish inside, and how can someone ruin mushy peas? By adding a spoon full of salt it seems. The gravy also tasted like thick bisto with an added bowl of salt.

This used to be our favourite chippy, but I think tonight will be the last time we visit. While the chips were lovely, really tasty and hot, the fish was quite bad. A really mean piece, and so thickly covered in raw batter on the inside which made it too sickly to eat. The outside batter was cooked, but not crispy as it was saturated with oil, making it soggy. Such a shame as the team there are so lovely, great customer service but sadly let down by the quality of the food.

After 27 years of being a loyal customer I've finally given up. In recent visits I have consistently had to wait unreasonable times for a simple order of sausage and chips. The final straw tonight was to order sausage and chips, to be told I'd have to wait. Having waited 10 minutes I was then told I'd have to wait a further 12 minutes because they had miscalculated the last batch of chips. When your primary function is to produce chips to sell, how hard can it be to keep a supply of chips going ?

I'm afraid all my experiences of this chippy are poor to say the least. Typically the fish is poorly cooked, and greasy. i.e. The batter isn't cooked through and this leaves the fish slimy and horrible to taste. The shop owner is often rude and abrupt needless to say i don't go there if given a choice ....

I first ate fish and chips here in the sixties and the place looks pretty much the same as it did then. The fish and chips have always been of the highest quality. Today's visit is the first time I've been disappointed. First I asked if the restaurant was still open (I arrived about 2.15) I was told no, I wanna go home, by one of the two women serving. When I turned to leave, she said "I'm joking". I'm not complaining about that but not the best way to speak to customers. My fish was cooked well, but the chips were stale and dry. When I pay £14.20 for fish and chips and a cup of tea I expect freshly cooked food.
