Boggin fish supper paid £11:40 the fish is a pollock out of Iceland 6 for 3 or 4 quid obsoletey migging dry as a bone bones in fish cooked blood and thin it’s definitely not a fish shop fish it was a pollock from Iceland I’ll never go back to docs nearly being sick here and I only took one bite it’s in the recycle bin I’m not even giving it to the dog. It’s that ruff.

Fish was soggy with the cooking fat and the batter was overcooked. The chips were passable. The staff were friendly and efficient.

Paid for a ‘large’ chips and cannot work out what on earth is large about it. It’s clearly a ‘normal’ portion of chips with a ‘large’ price tag. The Doc’s in Ardglass is much better and so are other places in Downpatrick. Disappointed.

I have always used Docs as my chip shop of choice, but that will no longer be the case. I rang to place my order. No answer. I assumed it was busy, so I walked from the car. 2 min walk. Got there. Empty! I could live with that. However, when I got home, the chips were hardly cooked. Again, if busy, you may understand, but that was not the case. Staff need some motivation. Sadly, I will not be back unless remedial action is taken.

Unable to get an order correct. Food is thrown together and of poor quality. The container for the curry had spilled over everything else as it wasn’t closed correctly. Chips tasted stale and not cooked properly, and the fish is rotten. Chicken is rubbery, and you only get a few pieces. Overpriced for what it is. They need to pay attention to what they’re doing instead of messing about, maybe they’d get orders right then. No onions, then they had tons of onions. Charged 50p for a bit of cheese we didn’t even ask for!! Baps were stale and the burgers were tasteless. Absolutely disgusting. Manager couldn’t have cared less when we rang him.

Directly across from the St. Patrick's Center, this small take-away is well worth a visit. The focus is on fish and chips and goujons and they do them very well indeed.

Great chippy - one of the best in NI. Fish is brought in fresh every day, chips are fluffy on the inside. Their branch in Newcastle even does gluten free fish in batter and chips!

We where overcharged for our meals Which i had to raise after working it out by comparing prices on the board. Got home to find that the order was wrong. And what was named as a chicken burger was more like 2 large chicken goujons. That was on both burgers. The baps where still frozen. 1 burger was dressed incorrectly. The chips where hard and undercooked with minimal curry or pepper sauce on either. I understand owners comment on another review stating wholesale prices have increased. 50 pence for a sprinkle of cheese seems excessive to say the least. If you are charging high end prices we need to recieve a high end product. Unfortunately you've lost a family of 5 customers that used the service on a regular basis. Food is now over priced and sub standard. Tonight is just the last straw im afraid.

Find Docs is always good in Newcastle, Ardglass and now here. The single cod was golden and crispy with a few chips. Whilst not the biggest I ever got it was adequate and tasty. Around £6.00 is fair price and place very clean.

Bit surprised at negative views. Always found Docs good in Newcastle. Anyway too late for sit in so I ordered a single haddock. I know it takes about 8 minutes to fry a fish so no rush. It came with a scoop of free chips. The chips were not hot but tasted nice. The haddock was fresh and burning hot. I always open the box immediately to let steam out and keep fish crisp. Fish was nice and fresh, but not the biggest I have seen for £6.80. Still I enjoyed it and will be back. It was about 7.45 pm. Place was clean. Staff never shut up and I could hear them talking about shoes constantly. Unprofessional but food good.

My wife and I were foreign nurses who arrived in Downpatrick in 2007 and worked for two years there. We always eat fish and chips every week in that place. After three years we moved to England, and a couple of years on we migrated here to the USA. Until now, with so many fish and chips shops we went to in UK and US, we still think that the Docs of Downpatrick are still the best we ever had.

We weren’t offered salt & vinegar. Staff were unfriendly. Steer clear, complete waste of money the food went straight in the bin.

It is a thing of breathtaking beauty. The haddock is similarly gorgeous, too, I must add, and the scampi is battered and also divine, served with salad, a few chips and tartare sauc

At one level it is a very good takeaway which provides a varied menu ranging from fish and chips to burgers and chicken. If you decide to eat in this little place really excels. You get restaurant style food and service for a fraction more than takeaway prices. Our server, who divided her time between the sit down area and the takeaway, could not have been more attentive. On both aspects, takeaway and sit in, I would highly recommend.

Docs Fish and Chip Restaurant is tucked away from the main thoroughfare in Downpatrick but it is well worth hunting it out. The seating area is pleasant and, unlike many fish restaurants, it is not "steamy". The menu is comprehensive and includes non-fish dishes but the fish they serve is superb. I chose cod and it came perfectly cooked - lots of nice fish and not too much batter. The chips were well cooked and very, very tasty and the portions were very generous. For a quick, tasty meal whilst visiting Downpatrick, this is the place to go.

Was recommended this restaurant by a friend. Went at tea time on a Tuesday and it was very quiet which surprised me. Very average fish and chips, dry mushy peas and not much fish in the batter. When I lifter the salt to put on my food the cellar was so greasy that it slipped out of my fingers! Sit in was generally grubby. Staff did as they needed to. Would probably pass on this place if wanting fish and chips again, there are better places in Downpatrick.

A decent place to go for a quick meal or a night out, generic fish and chips shop with nothing special on the menu, a few deals to save a few quid but most of these can only be used around lunch.

Although this little bus station cafe is small and always busy because of those who are passing through, I can honestly say some of the best coffee in Downpatrick is served here. Very reasonably priced, and they have specials on regularly to suit the season. Even if you're not making a trip anywhere, stop here for a lovely brew and a fresh baked good or confectionary of your choice to carry you through your day.
