A sign of a great chippy is that it’s always busy. Amazing fresh. Always tastes amazing. Couldn’t wish for better service or food. Chris is the best fryer around!

Having moved to Worksop a few months ago, a couple of neighbours had said the best place to go for fish and chips was Dawson’s ... to be honest I thought fish and chips were fish and chips and I’d been happy with one not too far from my house. BUT today I decided to go to Dawson’s... OMG!! They were incredible!! I might even go as far as saying the best I’ve ever had! Excellent quality, meaty cod, tasty and crispy batter (usually do not something I eat) and great service. Would highly recommend... so don’t take 6mths to get around to going like I did!

I haven’t visited Dawson’s in what must’ve been a decade, having grown up around the area and nipping in for a mid week treat after school. The fish and chips are still #1 and the best I have ever had - and I eat this staple of the British diet all around the country!! Quality of the fish and batter is simply unreal, you just don’t get it anywhere else. Never had a bad meal there. Well done to Chris and the team and long may it continue!! From the Betts

I grew up in Worksop & lived 10 minute walk away from Dawsons. We rarely strayed to the chip shops as we were very happy with their food. I left Worksop 25 years ago but visit family yearly & we always look forward to getting our "one of each & mushy peas"! We recently had fish, chips, peas etc etc for a group of us & I have to say that everyone was so happy with what we had. The quality, the service the friendliness is al still there & the business is still in the Dawson family. Highly recommend.

I love Dawson’s! The cod is the best I have ever had. The batter is crispy just he way it should be. My partner and I come regularly and the owner always pops out to check the food is to our satisfaction (it always exceeds!) You can have pot of tea or a glass of wine with you meal if you prefer.

We love this fish & chip shop takeaway or dine in (it’s like you have gone back in time). The staff are wonderful and work fast to serve you. The batter is always light and crispy and has always been spot on! Chips are a golden brown, which is how I like mine cooked and our kids love the curry sauce! Happy days!!! Keep up the excellent work guys.

The fish and chips here have been really good for as many years as I can remember, and although I hadn't been there for a long time, nothing really seems to have changed. If you want decent fish and chips in Worksop this is the place to go.

After hearing and seeing all the good reviews I tried two fish and chips got them home and opened the paper wrapping to find a burnt batter which was very greasy looked like a Re-Fry shocking presentation and taste. Chips ok but the two fish went straight in the bin.

Having known the family for many years .it was no surprise when the business was handed down several years ago.The standard or should I say quality has never diminished. Still exceptionally high. You are treated as a friend as soon as you enter the premises. If you want service and superb fish n chips I will recommend this place all day long.Lets hope the next thirty years are the same ...well done

There was a time when this was the best chippy in the Sop and it stood head and shoulders above the rest but I am sorry to say those days are long gone. The fish is tiny and the chips were only just warm, I would not recommend this place unfortunately.

Este es un fish and chips. Comimos en el restaurante de al lado cuando no te apetece fregar. El pescado es tan grande que caía sobre ambos lados de la placa. Patatas fritas también. Podrá tomar una taza de té o un vaso de vino o cerveza con la cena de pescado si comes en el restaurante.

Needed some sustenance and got freshly cooked dry over done fish that was so fresh I think it threw itself into the batter in desperation to get out of the shop and the batter. Sorry not for me. Wont be going back and cant recommend it. Access isn't great either.

If you are in the area of Worksop and fancy fish and chips then your really do need to visit this shop .The fish is amazing to put it simply it's the best I've had in years .The last fish shop that did fish like these people was in mansfield in the 70's .It's a real quality shop . We go as often as we can and we live quite a way out now .It's been a bench mark for years and no other fish shop comes close .People are super too .

Fish was cod and it tasted great the chips to.I was served by Chris a real character and he had a really good way with his customers .The prices are a little cheaper at other fish and chip bars but if you want quality sometimes you pay a little extra, this I did and it was worth every penny.If you like eating in the tables looked very smart and I see you can have a glass of red wine to have with your dinner.

Fish and chips like you used to get when Alf Tupper was a lad. If you don't want a lot then the mini fish and chips is still plentiful. We were told it was the best chippy around and it didn't disappoint.

We decided to try this on the advice of previous reviews and we are are glad we did. I am not a huge fan of battered fish, so tried my luck by asking for my fish to be lightly battered. This was no problem at all and I was delighted to be offered a freshly cooked portion, with a light batter. Plenty of fish and one large portion of chips was more than enough for two of us. The owners serve in the shop and they were very friendly, have no hesitation in recommending Dawsons.

We have not had a fish supper from here for at least 12 years since we moved out of the area. It is one of the best fish suppers I have ever had. The Cod was succulent and I asked for half a portion of chips, we both had cod chips and mushy peas, a pot of tea each.

The freshest possible North Sea fish-cod, haddock, plaice cooked to perfection in the crispiest, most delicious batter ever! There is never a hint of grease or fat on either the fish or the chips. Chris is the owner and the only fryer -so make sure he is open before you travel-he takes Wednesdays off and closes for holidays. The tiny licensed restaurant next door serves a small but good selection of wines and beers. I recommend booking a table it is always busy. If you know a good plate of fish and chips Dawsons will blow your mind!

The fish and chip shop is always lined up outside the door , the road is always scattered with vehicles trying to find somewhere to park. What does that tell you about the takeaway side of things ?Sit inside for a real treat one evening, plenty of space not over whelmed with the condition of the surroundings, but then that's not what you are going for, freshly prepared, fish and chips with other things ready for you to eat. That is the treat here, and competitively priced.

We have used this fish and chip shop for many years, Fish could do with being a bit bigger for the price you pay, Last time we went we noticed we got more chips than before for a normal fish and chips. We have always taken our meal out ,so can not remark on the Restaurant but a lot of people do eat in that says it all. The quality is Superb if you like an old fashion fish and chip shop this is the one for miles around.

Ordered large mixed meat with onions and chilli and 2 pitta breads from the Worksop shop for delivery. When it arrived, it was small, not large, and no onions !!!! The meat was barely warm and had cold spots through it as if it had been microwaved and not stirred. The doner meat was tough and tasteless. The chicken meat was greasy and cold. I didn't eat it as I thought I might end up poorly. Starfish on Celtic Point is far superior, but they don't deliver, hence the order from here. I won't be bothering again and will drive to Starfish in future!!!

The fish was like 2 smaller pieces together with the centre of fish missing. Chips was miniscule to say the least for a large portion and not the best at all far from it. Not again I would rather pay for delivery from Retford.
