FINS Fisheries in Wakefield

Just like to thank the shop for staying open that little bit longer tonight as I was rushing to get to them. Despite them literally closing the door they let me know what little they had left but sorted me out when they could have quite easy shut up and left. Lovely people and the food hit the spot. Appreciate this. Food here never disappoints.

Usually good and was looking forward to our fish and chips. Hoping it was a one off but our fish were small and the batter wasn’t crispy, was thin and stuck to the paper. Chips were stale. I had half the amount of chips in my box compared to my sons but that didn’t bother me because who wants more stale chips. Curry sauce was nice. Got it delivered and it was hot so temperature wasn’t an issue. Think I was just unlucky and got what’s been left under lights a while.

Don't know what's changed, was in here at the beginning of the year and it was fantastic and the fish was huge, this time the chips were brill but the batter was far to grease and not very crispy and to say I got a special it was small, but fryer and server are good to chat to and cheerful

The fish was over cooked & dry, chips done to perfection, next time I will ask for lightly done fish.

Bloody cheap ! And taste lovely

Well out of my way but worth it for the quality of food and portion sizes

Thought I'd give this place a try as it was on the way home. Lovely friendly staff. I've given the food a 3 as the fish size was tiny for what I payed the chips weren't great either. Looking at some of the other reviews a few people have mentioned this. I will try it again next time and see if its just maybe a few off days they have had.

Called here when Wigan were playing Castleford, Great fish and chips, large portions at a very reasonable price. They even do Wigan kebabs, staff very friendly, definitely recommend.

One of the best chippies in Castleford. Very consistent quality. However, I ordered pie and chips yesterday and got a pie which which was about 7cm in diameter and about 1cm tall. And I paid £3.50 for this. Such a shame that even pies have now gone the same way as shrinking chocolate confectionary, despite the prices still going up. I will be going back, but will be careful what I am getting from now on.

Sorry but quite possibly worst fish I've ever had, my local I airedale bad so having to go further trying find decent fishy my mam went actually not me was supposed to be a special, upon unwrapping it size of regular fish, my mam had regular fish which like a snake not fish and I think I know how this fish died by the amount of oil an grease on it friendly enough. Dunno if just caught bad day or end of good fishes but wont go again , just fishy ower road to try ocean blue then tried all glasshoughton fish shops.

Chips was dry , tasteless , probably cooked a long time ago. The fish also wasn’t fresh , cooked long time ago , oily texture

Scabbies chips very hard as well women wiping here nose on sleeve 😫 saying its cold

Beautiful fish& chips give them a try

When I want to relive my 70’s school days, I go and get a spam fritter from Phils Plaice. A nice thick slice of spam coated in a golden crispy batter, nice and dry and cheap. Just the thing to bring back the halcyon days of 70's school meals. I would also add the staff are very patient while I whitter on about random subjects. Highly recommended.

Friendly. A favourite which I will call at if in area.

Amazing food, well cooked not half baked and limp like other fish and chip shops in the area

Great fish and chips, found this place om just eat and never went anywhere else since. Good value and good portions.

Great, fast service and tasty, fresh fish and chips! Will be back :-)

Really nice fish. Loads of chips could have shared a portion with two people. Well worth a visit. Would recommend this fish shop definately.

Quality fish and chip bar. Very reasonable prices and polite staff. I will returning when back in the area.

Great little fish shop in Castleford. Always fresh and served hot. The staff are always friendly and every time we have been we have always thoroughly enjoyed our food. They have a good typical fish shop menu at a low price!

Lovely food fish are beautifull

Chips were spot on but the fish cake was under cooked (potato was hard)

Very nice food, definitely recommended. Good prices too.

Nice fish but delivery orders come first

Purchased sausage & chips and fish bites. Good value for money, tasty food and the curry sauce is boss. Friendly and informative staff.

Nicest fish and chips in a long time

Fab meal and not expensive either Will be going back for sure

Won't use this place again. Fish looked lovely and good size but unfortunately all batter very little fish.

First visit and will definitely be back. Really fresh and tastes great. Best i've had in a long time. Really friendly staff.

Great staff, very friendly, delicious food

You will not find a nicer tasting fish in castleford, staff are friendly and can have a laugh

The scallops and cheesy chips were rock hard and cold when delivered. The chip portions were ridiculous for the price. The bin got most of my £20 order.

Best chippy in Castleford hands down. Such friendly staff, and the food is amazing. Well cooked chips with a good colour on them, fresh crispy batter and great, authentic mushy peas. Wouldn't go anywhere else.

Recommended by a friend so called in tonight wasn’t disappointed. Great fish and chips . Lovely batter . Staff friendly

Personal preference by my review. Ordered a fish butty, fish was on the thin and small side and batter was bland However there fish was juicy and crispy

Nice fish nd chips. Nice friendly staff.

Lovely fish and chips highly recommend 👍

Quality products at competative prices and a very friendly service to boot.

Since the refurb I have made this my go to chippy, all made fresh great friendly staff and good price range. Keep up the good work.

One of my favourite fish and chip shops 😋

Lovely fish and chips would recommend.

Lovely fish & chips here. Only fish & chip shop il go to in cas! Good meal deals too

Lovely fish and chips beautiful batter

Excellent. Nice Fish&Chips and Excellent service

The shop itself was spotless but that’s where it ended they were the worst fish and chips we have had for sometime , the chips were almost cold and the fish tasted like kippers plus the batter was very oily . A complete waste of our money.

Excellent, very clean , great friendly staff

My new number 1 chippy in Castleford, great customer service too.

Great fish and chips and lovely staff

Really friendly staff and very nice fish and chips to.

Always friendly and great taste and a great price

Been a few times now since it was fins sadly it has got worse dont know the fish is but it stinks and the batter is very strange almost leathery a bit like you might get from a mobile chippy , sorry to say but we wont come back id rather do without, it s a nice place and the staff are friendly but it just not good enough

Friendly customer service. Great value for money. Great food. Best fish and chips

Disappointing compared to previous visits

Great fresh fish and chips with friendly staff

Clean shop, friendly staff and delicious food - grand

A little disappointing, the chips were a little thin, irregular, and brittle. The cod was nice, but no haddock option.

Proper Yorkshire fish and chip shop . This traditional chip shop focuses on just standard chippie food rather than attempting to go for the whole fast food offering (ie kebabs, pizza etc) as a result it does an excellent job. The staff are really friendly, batter is crisp and fish really fresh. The owner tells me it is delivered every day because they sell so much. Worth making a journey for. Its only 2 mins from Xscape.

Irish curry sauce with fish and chips and a can of Coke for £5.50, bargain! And I ate the lot. Just my little treat when I'm in Cas Vegas!

Probably the best fish & chips in Cas. Everythings cooked fresh and tastes great. Good prices and good, polite service from the girls behind the til. The last couple of times I've been in there's been a bit of a queue but they're really quick at serving. 5⭐

FRIENDLY STAFF AND GREAT FISH & CHIPS

My first visit but great impression. Staff were very friendly and after taking my order the fish was freshly cooked. So nice after so many places that offer a dried out piece of fish that has been kept warm for some time. I was also offered extras- bits of batter and onions. The fish was really enjoyable with crispy batter and definitely not greasy. I will certainly be returning if I am passing through again.

Lovely fish and chips everytime and with a smile

Very nice chippy . Highly recommended

I always use this chippy and would have been happy to recommend it but not after our recent visit. I’m assuming something must have changed with their fish as it wasn’t the same as usual? It wasn’t lovely and white like it used to be and it was so greasy. Honestly, we didn’t enjoy it and I’m now in search of another chippy. It’s a sad tale but true.

Great fish and chips great value for money too!!

Good was good but unless the prices have changed I was charged wrong.

Lovely fish cooked and battered to order. Yum yum!

Great place to eat fish and chips. Always great food . Staff are great to talk to . Will carry on having my fish and chips there .paul

Another great fish shop in Castleford. Professional and kind ladies behind the counter, really friendly atmosphere and great food. What do you need more?

Lovely fish & chips, friendly staff and service 👍 Would recommend!

Found by chance .Very nice would recommend

Great fish and chips see you soon

Called here last night after being scowled at and told nothing left at Battyes up the road,10 mins before they were due to close. Arrived here at 7.55pm five mins before closing time, and what a difference. Lovely ladies, greeted with a smile and asked how many fish I wanted. Food was beautiful. Fish was perfect with lovely batter and the chips were excellent, all fresh cooked and piping hot. Nice people, better quality and cheaper than the other place too. The best I've had in a long time, thank you 🙂

Really nice staff and really nice fish and chips

This place just confirms that size isn’t everything! It’s not the biggest or poshest chippy I’ve ever been in but I’m certain it’s the friendliest with great grub. Food cooked to order as you enter and a good choice of options on the menu. A few seats outside mean you can enjoy the outdoors when it’s dry and enjoy the beautiful food. If you’re local then give them a try as they’re great.

Fish cooked in front of you good value

Good fish and chips, lovely staff

Great fish and chips, friendly staff.

Really welcoming staff - friendly banter - excellent food and great value for money. Fried in beef dripping (as fish and chips should be). Nothing was too much trouble. Freshly cooked whilst you wait - and fast too! Now my regular local chippy.

Great fish and chips friendly staff

Wonderful, friendly service every time not to mention the excellent food and prices!! Keep it up guys!!

Best fish and chips in the fives

Started going here after regular place closed down. Wish we'd been going here all along. Best Fish n Chips not just in Castleford but best in a much wider area. And consistent too.

Best fish and chips in Castleford you get good sized portions big fish

YUM YUM YUM!! We always use this chippy for the food and the staff. Both great

Just had our tea sat outside very nice and the irish curry yum yum.

Excellent fish and chips, served by very friendly and helpful staff.

Lovely service and lovely food! I visited on my own on my way home and it’s a great value for money! Definitely recommend❤️

Had been here when it was Charlies previously. Pulled up, a starving family and got some food banged together and took it home. Well cooked and tasty, not too greasy. Not a bad chippy at all.
