Cox's Traditional Fish And Chips in West Lindsey

Visited Saturday for the first time in a long time after being recommended by a colleague Definitely won’t be leaving it long till our next visit. The staff we’re friendly and we all really enjoyed our meals. I had haddock and Chips I can honestly say it’s nicest fish and chips I’ve ever had. The offer meals have a fair bit of choice and good value to. Our son was made up with a large sausage in his kids meal. Would definitely recommend this little gem

Amazing Fish and chips cooked perfectly by Zoe! Friendly staff and great value for money! Portion sizes are huge! See you again soon

Still a favourite! Best chippy in The area for a perfectly cooked fish! Visit every Thursday evening for 2 Haddock nowhere seems to compare to coxs.

Wow went to this chippy Friday girls were amazing chip fantastic came back Saturday could not resist

Lovely food. Visit every Thursday.Friendly staff good service. Always highly recommend to friends and family. Best fish and chips in town

Came just as i was popping by got a battered sausage and chips and curry was good, also got offered a drink as well.

Very good fish and chip shop. Friendly owner and staff and very good value for money!! Good portions aswel

After moving to Gainsborough, in Sept’ 18 we started using this chip shop from then on recommendation from our Son. We always ask for a large cod , either fish cake or sausage with regular portion chips. The fish is huge on large & the batter is lovely & crispy . The staff are friendly, helpful & very chatty. At Xmas ‘18 due to bad weather Cox’s was closed so, tried another chippy on high st,& ended up waiting over 1/2 hr just for our order due to a customer placing s very large order & when we got it home it wasn’t very good , just not in the same class as Cox’s . There opening time for tea time is 4:00 till 7:30 & they get very busy & if you want large fish you must order as you go in . Enjoy 😋😋😋😋

Friend went here (I think... how many Fish and Chips places are there in Gainsborough?). Was sent picture. Evaluated Fish as a good 9/10 but saw they gave out tiny impractical forks... Plz explain thx.

The lunch time special is great value. All freshly cooked and the portion was very adequate for us all. Probably the best in the town.

Went to Cox's yesterday, was turned away at half 7 despite the opening times advertised as 8. Have been going to Cox's for a few years, they can be good, but they're inconsistent, won't try them again after been sent away yesterday.

Beat chippy in town by a long way, staff and owner always friendly, food is amazing, can have a laugh with everybody, would definitely recommend to anybody!

After I had my shopping at M & S today, I said to my husband, "I fancy fish and chips". Therefore, when I finished work tonight, I head to Cox Traditional Fish and Chips shop in Gainsborough, Lincs. I've only been to this shop 3 times. The first time I went, I went with a neighbour who introduced me to it and did the ordering for me. The second time I went, I was served by the owner and the service was not bad and the food was OK so I thought I would go back. Today, I had a completely different experience. The chips I got was in VERY poor quality. Two thirds of it were residue, something that I won't even want to put on my plate let alone serve to anybody. The staff who is serving as well as receiving payments from customers is using her bare hands holding the food. I found this very unhygienic. I'm glad she did not do that to my own food otherwise I could have said something. I ordered two fish with chips. When I asked for a smaller portion for my other chips, she prawned as if she was not happy doing it then slammed my chips on the counter after finished wrapping it. The staff talked very abrupt and when I responded to the way she talked to me, after I've gone, I over heard her saying to other customers that I was rude which means she recognised how to behave rude but does not matter if she does it. When I went home after 5mins journey from the shop, my husband unwrapped the fish and chips whilst they were still hot. I was VERY disappointed to see the state of the fish that were saggy and even more disappointed seeing the chips that look like cramps. I was very hungry so I had no choice but to eat it buy boy, I wish I did not, because it only spoiled my appetite with the feeling that I was cheated and treated horribly by the staff. What I called my treat turned to be a nightmare! Next time, I don't mind travelling 20 miles to Lincoln to get a decent fish and chips and good customer service but I would NEVER go back to this shop again. Also, as a new customer, staff expect you to know their culture asking you the question, "what would you like putting in?" rather than asking you, what would you like to order tonight.

This Aint A Bad Little Chippy.Nice Fish N Chips..And Not Greasy! Not Bad Priced.Staff Are Friendly.Only Downfall Is They Are Not Open Long At Night Time.

my family and I have used this fish and chip shop for years , always great food and good banter with the staff. thanks Dave + staff

Great food, fresh and the batter is always yummy! Happy to support Dave over the years. You won't be disappointed, often busy so be prepared to wait, but it's worth it!

Deliver to this shop every tuesday..... Staff and owner Dave very freindly..... A tradditional english chip shop and food cooked perfect... Chips are the best i have had and my favourite is the spam fritter in a bun .... Keep up great work ...

I ordered a large haddock which was fried to order. Both the fish and batter were excellent as were the chips. I ca highly recommend this establishment.

Great fish and chips. Large fish is cooked to order so aways the best .Staff always very helpful and friendly

Esta tienda de pescado es, en mi opinión el mejor de Gainsborough. El personal es increíblemente amable y propietaria de la tienda de Dave es más a menudo que no freír el pescado a sí mismo. El pescado es una maravilla, está siempre preparado con una pasta encantador a través de fresco. El menú es variado, así como todos los elementos tradicionales de "fish and chips", también ofrecen algunos "especiales" a precios fantásticos.

Sé que he preparado de este tradicional durante años. Nunca fue mi favorito por ubicación, estacionamiento, etc. La semana pasada mi esposa estaba trabajando tarde y yo había estado ocupado en el jardín. Ella llamó a recoger el pescado y patatas fritas de coxs en su camino a casa. Sé que han ganado premios en el pasado pero que no dice nada. Eso me mostrar chippy nunca ganado un premio. Estoy seguro de que tomar turnos. De todos modos... Ambos estaban hambrientos y disfrutamos de nuestra comida. Aún no veo lo que me de mi elección, pero "fish and chips" sin duda no es una estancia lejos de.

Still as good as ever since my last review and Dave has had his Fish Shop refurbished recently which looks great .Thought i'd try a large cod this time as i was quite peckish , by heck it was good with it's tasty crispy batter and big chunky white cod , The chips were very tasty too , all cooked to perfection .I'll be having some more soon .You should try some too .Thanks a Lot Dave.

The best in Gainsborough - home made fish cakes are lovely - open Monday to Saturday at lunch and tea times / early evening

A last minute decision for tea and what a good decision it was as well.Fish and chips from here is a real treat and full of mouth watering goodness.If you love fish and chips you have to give this place a go as I can assure you you will not be disappointed.Service with a smile makes you happy from the minute you walk in the shop, hows that for confidence!.

The quality of food and the service is fab, it's just not that great for my diet, moderation is the key and a little salt and vinegar x

This place is bad! If you want guts ache then this is the place to go. The chips are soggy and drowned in dirty oil and the fish was undercooked and slimey. Service was average but the staff need to smile more

Cox's have been going for years and they do a great fish & chips. People might think they are a little costly but I always think pay the extra when its worth it and Cox's are.They have meal deals what are great for family or just for kids. You ask for cod and you get cod .

Haven't been here for 2 years, but have not forgotten how good the fish and chips are. Went in at lunch and was not disappointed! Delicious.

We always go to cox's and choose that over any other chip shop in gains. However, we went yesterday and it was disgusting. There was that much grease coming off the food that by the time we drove home (5 mins) the grease had saturated the paper the fish and chips were wrapped in and picking the packets up they just disintegrated. Couldn't get them out the bag. They were just dripping in grease. Ended up having to use a spoon to get them out. Think we will be finding a new fish and chip shop in future. Had to throw them in the end. They were disgusting.

Thought I would try after reading reviews, having visited Burton rd chippy Lincoln ,Elite Lincoln and Sleaford ,Pappas Gainsborough who all claim to be the best".The Fish is so fresh and the Chips to die for and the cost top value for money, they did not think just because you had entered there shop they had won the Lottery.Keep up the good work.

Used to use Johnson's a lot (and reviewed them highly) but lately the quality of the fish there is a bit hit or miss!Cox's however is consistently good. The large cod is superb and cooked fresh to order and the chips delicious too.Well worth a visit!

Always excellent, portion size, is to much!! fish always freash and batter always crispy, well done to Dave and the team.

As a farming family, a trip to the chippy is never a common thing, but whenever we get the chance we always go here. The quality of food - be it a spam fritter, sausage or fish is always top notch. We've been coming to this chippy for years and its always guaranteed good grub. Don't ever change! We love it!

Good value always use this chippy when in the area.Very experianced owner.Well worth a visitGood value

Chips are very nice although a little greasy; sausages are very good. Good portion size and reasonably priced. Will be going back

Our local chippy - Cox's is without a doubt the best in town, chips are perfect, fishcakes are to die for and service with a smile, wouldn't go anywhere else in town! Only need one portion of chips between two as they are very generous!

We always go to coxs for our fish and chips. Never disappointed. Taste yummy and friendly staff. Rachel W.

I only go to Cox's chippy because the fish and chips aren't just the best i have tasted they are consistent every time i go, i know that what im getting is value for money and i am never disappointed. I haven't found a fish shop yet that delivers taste, quality and price, like Cox's, thats why i rate them 10 out of 10!

Our favourite chippy was closed for a week, so we thought that as this one was at number 1 in Gainsborough, and our usual one was at number 2, we would be able to expect at least the same quality, if not better. Sadly not so. While the chips were excellent, the fish was overcooked and dry, while the batter was soggy and very greasy. We are used to snow white, juicy, flaky fish encased in explosively crunchy batter and this wasn't even close. Sorry Cox's, not for us.

We visited ‘Cox's Traditional Fish And Chips’ after a recommendation and were not disappointed. You order the food when you go in and everything is freshly cooked. We both had fish, chips and peas. They were served in a tray. They were excellent fish and chips, just a shame they don’t have a restaurant and we have to eat them in the car as we don’t live in Gainsborough.

Best Fish & Chips we've ever had and home made fish cakes are amazing !! Served with a smile too ! Can recommend ...

The service is brilliant, the staff are very polite, the shop is always clean and tidy, and the fish and chips are the best I have ever tasted, they definitely deserve to be the number 1, there is nobody around that can match the quality of the food, price or the service, absolutely brilliant, I would recommend Cox's to anyone, I can guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Ace service cracking food :) very clean polite staff I can see why this chippy has been running for so long thank you

The quality of the food is always excellent. The family deal is exceptional value. The service is always friendly.

Lovely batter cooked traditionally great tasting chips too. Offers meal deals for kids and senior citizens

Perfect when the Mrs expects you to cook, I visit hear regularly and have no complaints, better still it keeps her quite.

Having lived in the north the south and the midlands, including many excursions to the coast, and numerous visits to Harry Ramsdens, I find that Cox's Fish & Chips, GTown, beats the lot!! Fantastico!!

I visited this chippy and found it to be a breath of fresh air. An actual traditional Fish and Chip shop selling the food a fish and chip shop should be selling not kebabs or spicy chicken. There was also ample parking outside the shop to sit and eat the meal. The batter on the fish was the best I have ever tasted and the owner and staff were extremely helpful and friendly. They also had different size meals priced accordingly, family deals and lunchtime specials. All in all an extremely well thought out and tasty eating establishment!!

Ever since I was a boy I have been eating Fish & Chips, Sausage and Chips and buying all sorts of meals from Cox's that you would traditionally buy from a chippie. Everything from the smell when you first arrive to the hello from Dave and his staff and then "do you need any fish" it is just something that is essential to my lifetime routine,The fish is fab, the chips have a unique taste and the whole array of food and service is just what you need.A simply great traditional chippie!

I deliver fresh fish to this shop every week and always have my lunch there! TRADITIONAL and British this is for me the best fish & chips Gainsborough has to offer!

Cox's Fish and Chips are the Best in Gainsborough .Superb Fish and The Chips are Unbeatable and So Tasty Every Time .They're Really Good Value For Money .Staff are Friendly .Very Clean and Presentable Service .Would recommend These To Anybody .I Only Ever Go Here For Good Food Everytime .

Go to Cox's every Saturday - Best chip shop in town, service is great and never had a bad meal. Would recommend to anybody searching out a new chip shop to try.

Simply the best fish and chips in Gainsborough ....The fish is always lovely and fresh and there is plenty of choice on the menu with really good value for money . The staff are really helpful and friendly and always have a smile ....Will definitely return ..

Tried others in town always returned to Cox's. Consistently high standard of fish and chips, options in menu caters for my requirements. Friendly and efficient staff. Value for money.

Have tried all the other places in town & these are the best by far. Will never go elsewhere now. Offers excellent value for money, quick efficient service. Would recommend to anyone.

The best Fish n Chips I've ever tasted even better than the famous Harry Ramsdens . Great value for money and the service from the staff is excellent they always have a quick friendly chat whilst they serve you . Always first place I have to visit when my relations from Poole visit us as they insist that Coxs fish n chips are better than the ones they buy down there. I would recommend Cox's fish n chips to everyone who would like to try the best in the country

Although I no longer live in Gainsborough and have travelled extensivley throughout England, I keep returning regularly to Cox's Traditional Fish and Chip shop for, in my opinion, 'Simlpy The Best' fish and chips available anywhere!

Easy the best chip shop in Gainsborough, allways packed out 6 days a week. I would never change my options great value for money well recommended.
