Tonight I ordered a half pounder with cheese and bacon as I hadn't eaten all day, the burger was OK, but charging someone .80p for a squirt of burger sauce is criminal.

Never had a bad experience here. The fish and chips are always fresh and delicious. However what we got last night was so disappointing. The fish had been sitting in the cabinet for some time. It was dried up and tough, and the scampi was tough and soft, not crisp and fresh. Chips ok but again not fresh. Really not up to the usual high standard. I’m only hoping that this doesn’t become the norm for this place

From the second I walked in was greater with a huge smiles. I ordered a medium haddock and mushy peas (no chip) fish was freshly cooked ( 5 min wait) came out and was perfect! Soft flaky fish, delicious crispy battery. Was brought over to where I was sitting, the server gave great customer service. 10 out of 10 will return to the town just for the fish.

I got a few cold spicy potatoes on a box for the price of a burger ( when I got home I discovered this ) . I should have checked however it’s their primary responsibility to ensure that the correct orders go out the counter.

Always amazing food and service. Tonight I had the new southern fried chicken 🍗 wow it was amazing a million times better than any crappy food chain. Totally recommend best chippy for miles the fish is always fresh the batter crispy and the chips are so fluffy. The curry sauce and mushy peas are scrumptious. The staff are so happy and always so courteous. All round the best would not go anywhere else.

As a taxi driver I am always driving to Stanstead Airport from Sussex. I found this chip shop by chance many years ago and raved about it ever since, leaving a gushing review on here previously. I would like to retract this good review abs submit this one. Either their standards have plummeted or the restaurant has been taken over because the food we have just attempted to eat was diabolical. The whole meal looked and tasted as if it were prepared for an order that had been forgotten to be collected. The fish was soggy, limp and had an unpleasant odour. The chips were hours old, dried to a point that there was no fluffy potato left, just dry chewy fragments. We ordered and took the meal away in minutes and got this monstrosity of a meal, goodness only knows what the recipients of a delivery recieve. My advice would be to bring sandwiches or to use the Wetherspoons opposite.

I keep going back here because the reviews are prominently good. But, the past 3 times I have bought chips there, they have been hard & not cooked properly. I don't understand how people like their chips hard?!?! Or, do they just undercook them for us!! I'm confused......🤔

I have been to this Fish & Chip shop a couple of times and enjoyed the meal. They seemed to be training some young people in retail and the fish shop trade in general when i was in there this time which was encouraging. I had cod and chips and they do a deal for 2 medium meals for a set price which was good, we saw the deal after we ordered the standard meals and when we noticed the poster we changed the order to save money,the deal wasn't pointed out to us at the time of ordering. The fish was really good and a large portion even though we ordered a medium cod. The chips are nice but not plump, you get a lot of small end pieces without a lot of soft potato inside. The curry sauce was historic very tasty. Big selection of different types of fish on offer including skate and rock which you do not always get these days in all F&C shops. This place is just opposite the weatherspoons pub along the high street. Worth a visit if in the area.

I have to let it be known that this little gem of a pub is not only one of the prettiest interiors of any (of many!) pubs that we go to - it's beautifully decorated, it is also one of the cleanest, with staff being super quick to clean tables and seating areas as people come and go, which is no mean feat given that they are very welcoming of canine companions and that they are pub surrounded by many beautiful walkways. I've never seen it look for one moment anything short of spotless. I've been taking my weim pup to this pub since last Summer and they've seen her go through the stages of too cute to 'complete and utter 'two and a half handful' where I've had to put all my efforts in to managing her (she is 100% typical of her breed!), they might they have been so patient, calm and lovely to her and us. Thank you for being a lovely place to go, team F&H

The Grill room always has a nice atmosphere. My Mum and I find it to be A La Carte but relaxed which is a nice mix. The food is delicious, we’ve never had a bad meal. I had the Potato Gratin with baby parsnips (vedgy option) this time and it was delicious. The Chef very kindly did my Mum a chicken option, as she couldn’t eat the other options and she really enjoyed it. Presentation and portion size is very good. Reasonably priced for the quality. When we stay at the hotel we always eat in the Grill room and if we were more local we’d eat here more often.
