Fish & chips - simple but done well

The food is brilliant but the opening times as advertised online can't be trusted. We got there at 5.30pm, (the opening times advertised online was 1 - 7pm) they were closing at 5.30 because there weren't enough customers. You have to be prepared for the fact that they don't stick to their advertised opening times, and may well be shut.

Worst fish and chips for a long time. Used to be good but awful now. Wish I'd taken a picture of all the black bits on the chips where the oil is clearly old and needs changing. £10 for a fish that was more batter than fish and could pick the whole thing up from one end it was that hard. 50p per sachet of tomato sauce as well, what a joke!

Food was above average but the waiting time of over 30 minutes was crazy. Didn't help that that staff were arguing with each other and miserable to customers. Definitely gone downhill.

Fish was mostly batter and over done. Most of the chips if you can call them that were small sharp scraps. The decent sized ones were also over cooked. Sorry but would not recommend.

Bit of a shame to be open until 8pm but "turn the fryers off at 7.45" though you are clearly still cooking for previous orders. The cook clearly wanted out the door at 8pm. Manged to still get the left over chips which where okay but quite expensive for what they where. Just wish customers turning up at 7.45 could get a fish and the other 2 family's behind us able to get more than a just a few sasuges.

OMG, if you’re in the Lake District and want to lose the crowd drive out here for your fish and chips. It’s a take away but do have some benches outside. You’d be going for the food, expect a very well managed queue.

Had the best ,not just chippy tea, but takeaway in a long time. The whole family commented how delicious it was after eating every last bit! The chips are worth their own mention, not greasy at all and defo home cut, scrumptious! Looking forward to our next tea from our friendly local, Crakeside Fish and Chips!

Delicious fish and chips and mushy peas, enjoyed in the shade on the picnic benches. Very welcome after a long drive to the Lakes. Friendly service. EDIT: called again last week, 6 years later. Both of us had fish, chips and peas again and a cup of tea. It was good!

Should have read the reviews 1st had sausage and chips the sausage was edible but the chips were soggy and more scraps than chips . the woman who was cooking the chips had a terrible cough and kept pulling the chips out of the fryer and pressing them with her fingers to make sure they were cooked very unprofessional and unhygienic the 1st time I visited and will definitely be the last

Been coming here for years and was my favourite chippy within a 100 mile Radius but unfortunately over the last 18 months it’s gone downhill with tough chips but today was the final straw with these. Surely they must be frozen.

Not chip shop style chips, more like frozen chips, and sadly hardly any fish in a huge amount of batter, we had 4 haddock’s and all of them the same. Poor amount of fish and frozen.

Over £24 for 2 Fish and chips curry sauce and mushy peas ! The portions used to be of a healthy size for your money and it was a treat. But they are now served in a cardboard box which is very thin. If we actually got a potato each I’d be surprised. The fish was good. Sorry for moaning 😳

Used to be a good chippy but £10 for fish and chips is a bit steep when the fish was wafer thin and gone in three bites, still get a decent amount of chips but deffo gone down the nick since the last time I was in, wondering if it has changed owners?

The worst fish and chips I've ever had. The fish was dry and the batter brown and disgusting. The chips were horrible too. Definitely using old oil. I couldn't tell you what the actual fish was. £10 for fish and chips. Wouldn't pay a £1 for it, in fact if they were giving it away I would say no. People were asking for gravy, curry sauce, were told no. The mushy peas were lumps frozen and they poured hot water on them. Avoid at all costs. I am actually going to report them to health and safety standards. We threw it all in the bin. Disgusting All the good reviews put on here, are either fake or they ain't got a clue what food is.

I’ve been coming to this chippy for nearly three years as we have a home nearby. Every single visit without fail the quality has been between good and great. After-all this isn’t a maccy D’s where it’s super processed to be identical globally all the time! The consistency and quality is always reflected by the fact there is always a queue regardless of what day or time we visit. This has become a little tradition of ours to stop here for a chippy tea when we visit. I’d recommend it purely based on my experience over the past three years and would go further to say that in my experience service levels are typically a reflection of customer attitude.

I’m not a regular to this fish and chip shop and I wouldn’t advise anyone else to be. Though it’s quite the drive to another one if you are a Greenodd local Stay clear of this place! The Young girl serving was rather rude & I noticed that the lady frying was making eyes to her & this made me extremely uncomfortable. The food wasn’t any better than the service. The chips looked like they were sitting there for a good while & were caked in grease. However, the place was decorated really nicely and the pumpkins were a good touch for Halloween.

Great virtual queuing system now operating. Collect when your beeper goes off - mega easy. Quality of chips is good, but the portion size seems to depend on the size of the queue - shorter queue - more chips? Curry sauce is nice. Don't know if £ has increased recently. I never paid much attention to this before. Usually quite busy, so good sign, particularly for a small local business.

Came back after a successful visit last time in the Lake District -very disappointed £23.40 for two fish chips and curry sauce - the fish was small - batter thick greasy and undercooked and the chips - well what few of them were soggy - only good thing was the curry sauce - very disappointed at this expensive poor quality fish and chips - nothing like we last experienced a couple of years ago

Love the outside sitting area. Such a unique touch to the chippy. It isny my favourite chippy for taste but saying that there is absolutely nothing wrong with what you're served. And it's damn fresh and crispy :) I love the new? Use of the beeping tags to tell you when your food is done, it worked really well and ensured good freshness.

Shocking. If I owned this place I would be embarrassed to charge people for the fish. It was grey/brown in colour, tasted of absolutely nothing and a very very thin fillet. Only redeeming factor was the chips. At £20 for fish and chips twice an absolute disgrace

Me and a pal drove past this coming back from a hill walk and decided to drop in as it had a car park right outside and some seating. We both ordered fish and chips with mushy peas. Both agreed it was the best fish and chips we have had in years. Fish was flaky like it should be and batter cooked to perfection, chips were absolutely spot on too. Back home where we live we are spoilt with good chip shops but this honestly walked over them all. Cant wait to call back next time were in the lakes. PS/ Service was great too. 5*

Picked up some food on the way home after a four hour journey. Asked for it without vinegar and salt, got home and it had vinegar on. My wife drove back, and because it was a couple of minutes after closing, they would only provide a refund. A replacement would have been nice, it’s not as though there are alternatives nearby. No dinner tonight then, shame they don’t value local repeat customers more.

Terrible fish and chips, fish was so small (more fish in a birds eye fish finger) covered in a horrible thick batter to make the fish look bigger, average chips complete waste of money.

Avoid! Avoid! Avoid! Just had one of the worst dining experiences of my life, for a 30th birthday celebration courtesy of Lucy’s on a plate Ambleside! I honestly don’t know where to begin with this, maybe the appalling manager, slow service, bland overpriced food, not sure really but here we go. So we email this place the previous evening to our booking enquiring about a reservation for 2 people, we heard nothing until WE contacted them around 3/4pm the following day to be told “oh yes im just on with the bookings now and was just about to call you”which I didn’t believe but that’s fine, on the phone I explained it was a special 30th birthday meal for my partner as they asked were we celebrating an occasion. We were looking forward to our meal and arrived slightly early about 6.20 for a 7pm table, we thought we could maybe have a drink if they had a bar or somewhere to wait for the table. We were shocked to see the manager fumbling around with his booking sheet to clearly see he didn’t have our names down, just to write us in in front of him, he then makes a joke saying “that would of been embarrassing”yeah it certainly would have been embarrassing so not a great start at all, we sit down to read the menu and notice some essay on the front talking about the guests and what they were celebrating, no mention of my partners 30th birthday just a half arsed after thought saying hello Andrew and Rhianne, as we were clearly forgotten about. After looking at the menu we decided to go for 2 pork belly starters £12 each and lamb shank £28 and lamb tagine £24, starters came out pretty quickly around 10-15 mins so great, unfortunately BLAND!! The apple puree could of been anything as there was no flavour at all, no sweetness to balance the dish just the flavour or pork and a little black pudding Bon Bon, BLAND! Then we wait for almost 1 hour, yes 1 hour for the main, asking the waiting staff how long, got told if it’s not here in 5 mins I’ll go and punch the chef, yes haha very funny but just get me my food I wasn’t up for jokes by this time, then the mains come, my lamb shank was dry had next to no sauce or should I say gravy at all, the mash was lukewarm the veg the same and very undercooked, I’m all for al dente but this just wasn’t and a piece of parsnip no bigger then your little finger, this place is a long way off fine dining! I asked for some more sauce and was brought a gravy boat of wishy washy gravy that they must use on every dish! Honestly very similar to a bisto gravy, where’s the lamb flavour or the reduced stock to coat the lamb shank, absolutely nothing! My partner said the lamb tagine was lukewarm again but after waiting an hour we were so hungry we just ate it, she said the cous cous was just bland and had nothing special about it, she said the cous cous from Sainsbury’s ‘food on the go’ was much nicer, why is this when we’re paying all this money? We also noticed there was no check back to see how we were enjoying the food as tbh they just weren’t bothered! When our plates were cleared(25 mins after we had finished) we were asked was everything ok, I said hmm yeah ok to which the waitress replied “ok yeah” great and takes the plates. This is where I would of informed the manager that someone was not very happy and suggest they go and speak to them! I was very reluctant to say anything because I’m aware I’m celebrating my partners 30th and didn’t want to make a scene, after such terrible service and food we just couldn’t order a dessert as we weren’t going to give these people my more of our money, we receive the bill at £115 for 2 starters 2 mains and 2 drinks each one of those was non alcoholic. Very overpriced for the quality you receive. Then to top the night off I go to pay, this is where the manger really shows his lack of experience, from me counting out the money to pay he never once asked “how was your meal” how did your partner enjoy her 30th birthday celebration” nothing! Didn’t even say enjoy your evening, honestly I recommend you research this place before going here as it’s beyond bad!
