We have used this takeaway for years … it’s always been ok/good. Last night the food was excellent and ranks amongst the best takeaway fish and chips ever!!!! What ever changes you made,…. Keep them up…. Will definitely be back for more ( haddock and chips x2 and GF haddock with chips)

This is not my local so last time I visited was several years ago. Very good then. Looks like new management, but fish and chips as good as ever. One of the best pieces of battered cod I’ve had in years - perfectly cooked and lightly battered as I’d requested. Will be sure to not leave so long until I visit again! Well done!

Fairbanks fish and chips are usually very good which is why we decided to buy cod & chips for dinner this evening. We were really looking forward to eating it. I wish we had gone elsewhere. Don’t know whatever happened this evening. I took food home in a thermal bag to keep it hot, I had a 4 minute drive home, once home discovered food barely warm, cod batter soggy and chips rock hard. Won’t be returning in a hurry.

I recently ordered battered sausage and chips x2. During the extremely short wait I complained to my misses about the price of fish and chips today. Upon reflection the food here was very reasonably priced for a more than respectable portion and I feel like a bit of a prick. Good chippie, would go again.

Unfortunately, normal very good, food and service and I use this shop regularly. But today, they decided to just close an hour and 10 minutes before they should do and chosen let down the side. Staff were very smug and thought it was funny, as I was told they were not cooking anymore! THEY should change their attitude towards this type of behaviour. 😣😣😣

We’ve been using Fairbanks for a while now & love their fish & chips. Thought we’d try their faggot meal for a change - what a mistake! Chips were warm, mushy peas warm & tasteless. The faggots were dreadful. Dry, solid, no taste, no gravy & left a nasty after taste - yuk! Would’ve found cardboard more appealing. Total waste of money.

I really like this place, especially as it offers gluten free fish and chips. The food is pretty good. The large chips is a very decent sized portion.

Lovely chips, sadly not much for a vegetarian as a main meal. No vege pies or pasties, curry sauce had beef fat, yuk. The only main option was a burger, which I didn't want... I struggle to understand, with the amount of vegans and vegetarians there are, how, not just this chippy, but so many don't seem to do any vege pie or pastie option, at the very least! I am sure you could do a vege pie/quiche, cottage pie or vege nuggets in a wrap maybe... However, the young people working there, were apologetic and polite and at least did pount if that the curry sauce had animal fat in.

I keep coming back to this local... but I'm done now. I love a few streets down, ordered in the shop, and got home to luke warm chips yet again. I moved here two years ago and 1 out of 1 5 times the food had an issue or was wrong...now its every time and its easy to see why... It's nice that they recently promoted the delivery driver to the tills... less nice when he "jokes" about punching the kitchen staff... granted, they were behaving like utter juveniles, undercooked food and cooking food that didn't need to be served; but still. The last several times I've been in.. there is no professionalism at all... the staff behave like bafoons and the food is more miss than hit because of it. Hygiene is awful too. Today the kitchen staff (whilst cooking someones beans in microwave and serving cold chips and too many nuggets being cooked)...joked about how many nuggets it would take to feed the 5,000 (per the bible)... I found it hilarious considering they couldn't get 1 order right... Someone needs to take control again otherwise this place will be left behind

Unfortunately, this now constitutes half a chicken (£6.90). It didn't matter the size as actually it was such poor quality chicken it went straight in the bin. I rang the manager and she advised that it wasn't their problem as this is how they buy them, although she did say sorry. Obviously cost cutting during these tough times, esp. For fish and chip shops. My daughter's scampi was however lovely though.

Veggie Burger is absolutely amazing! Best thing I’ve had from here. I get it weekly. Their chips are SO MUCH BETTER lately, idk what they changed but it is working! Fish is okay, it’s often pretty soft and I like my fish crispy but it tastes good. Maybe it has to do with being in the box. Curry sauce is fantastic and the onion rings are greasy but so delicious.

I had such high hopes. I moved to Winterbourne a couple of months ago and I’ve been looking forward to trying this place because it has such good ratings. I was happy with the appearance of the shop and the friendliness of the staff and how clean everything seemed to be. I ordered a cheeseburger and some chips. To be fair I know chip shop cheeseburgers aren’t usually the best but this was really disappointing., for some reason every time I took a bite from the burger I could smell fish that sounds a little tedious and silly but it was really offputting. I don’t know if the bins are stored next to raw fish or something but it’s really a strong smell. I Couldn’t work out the smell was coming from the bum or the lettuce and actually the lettuce ended up being removed and that seemed to help a bit. On top of that the burger itself was really dry and tasteless and there was no cheese on this cheeseburger . I will definitely go again and I will get something more traditional like a big piece of fish but I definitely don’t recommend the burgers.

We haven’t been here for a month or so, but now and again it just has to be done. A fish and chip supper of this quality is always very welcome. Fairbanks IMHO is the premium ‘Chippy’ in our area and their product is well-worth the £18 paid for the two large haddock and one standard portion (a sufficiency) of chips. The chief frier knows how to cook fresh fish perfectly in thin light batter, the result is flawless: moist firm fish in a crisp, light and dry coating. The consistency of the fish and chips ensures our return.

It has been 14 months since we last procured a takeaway from this renowned local ‘chippy’ and almost two years since we last enjoyed good fish and chips from here. After three consecutive poor fish and chip meals in the year ending 2020, we decided to stop going to this previously very fine chippy. Sadly, in the interim period since our boycott started, we had been unable to find an alternative local chippy that could measure-up to the quality of fish and chips, that we had regularly enjoyed from here, in the ten years ending December 2019. Our decision to give Fairbanks ‘another chance’ was prompted by independent recommendations from two friends who both live in the Winterbourne area. For us today it was a most welcome return to form for this chippy, the atmosphere was remarkably different from the three previous occasions. The staff seemed more focused and efficient, the meals were produced quickly and when we got them home the haddock was superb: obviously fresh and then perfectly cooked. The chips were fine, dry not fat-soaked and not mushy. So, it will be that we will visit again when the time for good fish and chips comes around.

The service was really good, the staff were friendly and offered personal suggestions as well. The atmosphere was perfect too with just the right amount of chatter to ratio with the quietness. However, the food was enjoyable but I ordered the King Prawn and Chorizo risotto and the prawns were left with the outer tail which put me off a bit. It also had an oily residue from the beginning. I wish it was without the tail as I would have enjoyed it more. Overrall good just would prefer these little mishaps to not be there.

We held our Golden Wedding anniversary here on Saturday (16th) with just a smallish party of 59 guests and from beginning to end, it was a fabulous experience for every single person. The food was outstanding, especially the slow braised British beef (which I had) that simply melted in the mouth, it was that tender. Every person had chosen each course from a choice of three options and nobody was disappointed with what was placed before them. Likewise, the breakfast was superb. All the staff on the day were brilliant and made sure that we were happy and enjoying ourselves. A special mention has to go to Angela from the Wedding & Events Team - what a gem she is and truly a credit to the venue! Over the many months of planning, nothing was ever too much trouble for her and her responses to my many email queries were very quick. Some very precious memories were made that day, in a beautiful setting, that will last for a long time for both us and all our guests.
