Collection of sweet & sour chicken and unfortunately the chicken was under cooked. Very disappointing!!! Won’t be visiting here again !!

Dolphin chippy is a well-known fast food service. They have a wide variety of food that caters to your preference and includes a childrens menu. Their menu is reasonable priced and also has their own special cheaper menu for meals about £7. Which I noticed outside at the bottom of their advertisement. Dolphin also accepts phone orders for collection and deliveries. Most of all, meals & chips are always freshly prepared & hot. Free parking facilities. It's still one of the best chippy's in Runcorn. Location is set in between the Co-op and pub the other side

Came here on the off chance as I travel with work played it safe with egg friend rice, chips and curry sauce. Asked for extra soy sauce on my egg fried rice and they gave me extra alright 🥹🤪 Couldn’t eat all the rice as was spoilt with the soy, but other than that good chips, nice rice and the curry is tasty! Just maybe a dash of soy extra would of been ok

Great choice of Chinese and English food that's nice and tasty. Prices are reasonable as well. Also does a phone order and delivery service. I would recommend this supper bar as great.

If you prefer your chips to be old and stale, this is the place for you. Meals are overpriced muck. Avoid.

Nice and clean. Modern. Somewhere to sit whilst waiting for your order, which is done pretty quickly. I'm a creature of habit so stick with that same order. Which looks and tastes fab everything. Staffbare lovely too

I got a bit confused as I'm blind and thought this place a massage parlour. She asked what I wanted and I said the full works please. A few minutes later, a giant package of food arrived, which I mistook to be a woman. I lay it on the floor and began to pump away. I now have third degree burns to my genitalia and bits of prawn cracker stuck up it. Despite that, I enjoyed the experience and me and the food are getting married in May. I'm also having an affair with two Weetabix. I can't see it like, but I imagine down there must look like that blokes face in The Burning Detective.

Went to try this place. It's been a few months since it was closed, and my normal chippy was extremely busy, I took a chance. The lady who served me was very rude. She looked like she had not cracked a smile in the last 10 years. The food was tasty, however, and I felt good about going there. 5 hours after I had eaten the food, it was a different story, I was being violently sick for hours. Curry, rice and salt and pepper chicken definitely taste better going down than coming up. Luckily, my daughter didn't have anything, and my partner had fish and chips. I'll never eat here again. Terrible mistake.

This was the first time we have used this chippy after we moved to Runcorn. I would like to say the food was absolutely amazing, the size of salt & pepper chicken was huge and tasty and My favorite is the chicken fried rice and it was so delicious as well as their kung po sauce. we will definitely visit you again!

Christine Clegg . 2023-05-08

Recent articles have brought the filth, negligence and lack of care for customer safety to light. The business was shutdown by an emergency order, from the council recently before opening 48 hours later. They make a killing as it's nearly always busy, yet no basic food hygiene in place? It should be shut down.

I come to Runcorn to visit friends and they highly recommended the dolphin, I was surprised, the food is amazing and huge portions at a reasonable price. I can’t wait to visit again, absolutely delicious, very well organised for such a busy chippy and friendly staff. Just the little touches like the fortune cookies for the kids.

So went to the chippy to grab some grub for me and the missus now I don't mind the dolphin sometimes but giving a one star due to customer service I literally stood at the front to place my £30 Order waited until they say how can I help what would you like to order instead waited for over 5 minutes still no one seen to me then instead of asking to call Me over as I was waiting they call over someone else but had to spend my money next door in the co op all was after was a family meal there loss of £30 feedback would be is when customer is stood there for over 30 seconds or longer approach the customer within the first ten seconds of them arriving or if you are busy advise you be with them in minute at least then you have made them aware that you have noticed them honestly really disappointed in service

Got fish chips & ‘mushy’ peas from the dolphin last night, the chips aren’t fresh I don’t know what they do with them, the fish was terrible & the ‘mushy’ peas were more like marrowfat peas & very hard. After I’d had a few fork fulls & I’d pushed it round the plate a few times I threw it away. Then up all night with you know what & I’ve been like that for most of today. Wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone, it’s really gone downhill & a waste of £15 too.

Just had chicken curry. Chicken didn't seem to be real chicken! Sauce not great, it came with a huge bag of chips, enough to feed a whole family. However I think the chips are frozen as they are not like chippy chips. Big disappointment. Usually have chicken fried rice but as I've been disappointed with this lately I thought this may be better. How wrong was I. Won't be wasting money there again.

Don't get the impression they like the locals very much in here. Straight one line answers to any questions about the menu, combination deals not honored when buying multiple items unless you specify it and they clearly speak about you to each other in another language when you're standing right infront of them. Their food isn't bad, but ruined when you get home and something's missing so you drive back only for them to disagree that it was missing as if you'd drive all the way back for a measly free sausage! It was eventually reluctantly dumped on the counter because I wasn't leaving. But I think we'll go somewhere else where they don't clearly hate the people who pay their living next time.
