Flash In The Pan, Ballymoney in Ballymoney

Waited over two hours for a delivery and staff had no clue when it was coming. Food arrived and the tub of gravy had spilt everywhere. Wouldn’t even give free delivery for the hassle. Won't be rushing back

The food was delicious, very busy but not 2 long a wait

Don't waste your money. Awful chips. Awful service.

Excellent cod and chips in curry sauce, with friendly service and got parked outsides. Look to be a steady trade. No problem recommending this fish and chip shop.

Of the 2 Flash in the Pan franchises that I know, this one in Ballymoney would be my go-to. Always busy, but why not ring through your order and pick it up. The food is not greasy and the helpings are full.

Ok food wise. Sauce not a lot of for my liking

Worst cod I have had this year. Greasy, over cooked and not crispy at all.

A really good chippy. The chicken burgers are delicious

Best chippy in around ballymoney coleraine portrush etc area. Foods always consistent never had a bad meal from it. It’s not the type of place you go to that’s hit or miss foods always the same great taste. And the staff are some team the way they work. Get a ranch burger they are amazing. Not dripping in grease like most chippys chips are always beautiful and edible

A bit more greasy than the average chippy for me

People ordered after me and were out before me with large orders 20 minute wait, thought it would b worth the wait but it was so full of grease had to bin it, not worth the wait or money

Been here twice in last couple weeks and both times orders have been wrong, simple but very frustrating things such as no cheese on cheeseburger, etc. Lives on reputation alone.

Second time we have had the worst chips ever. Cooked 2 or 3 times, hard and inedible. This used to be the best chip shop in Ballymoney but now they are serving rubbish chips. So disappointed. Sorry but we wont be back.

Food is always excellent. Worth the wait.

When we are this direction we always pay Flash in the Pan a visit. The food is always consistently good. We have never had a bad meal from it. Staff are always very helpful and courteous.

Okay, sometimes it's really good. Other times, it's just okay. Nothing special

Usually pretty good. However our latest meal was very disappointing. Tasteless and overpriced would definitely sum the food up. They were very busy, but this is no excuse for poor tasting food.

Awful.. chips had a horrible after taste and the fish was dry and flat. Bartered fish should be light fluffy and crispy. I had the opposite. Real shame but won’t be eating here again as we got home and threw it away

Mediocre food, prepared lazily and served with no care.

Burger meal was a kilo of chips and a burger that I’d compare to a rustlers burger at a good price of £11

First class chippy. If you are about this area. Must go.

Ate out of there last night, not their usual standard

Never eat here again Johnny from Rasharkin as they gave me a burger chicken fillet burger with no chicken an said they not pay me back money I payed what a joke of a place better places to eat in Ballymoney plz stay away as the manager a joke an tryed to make it my fault 😅 🙃

Still great chips so the 1star for that but at £4.25 ridiculous price, 2nd time having chicken burger 7months apart&still tough as leather, less time in fryer&£5.40 also ridiculous, pity they hadn't more variety in Ballymoney, same old stuff but no competitive prices,

Supergrill. All you need all you want.

Legendary....look forward to a visit as a regular weekly treat

Great fish and chips place. Nice selection. It's quite busy, but they work fast and with a smile. Only takeaway, no dine-in options. The chips and curry were amazing 👌

Excellent chips, maybe the best I've had and I've had a lot!

Not as good as it used to be. Chips were ok. Slightly disappointed

Best chipper I've had in a very long time. And I reckon it's gonna be hard to find another that would beat it. Taste like how the chipper of my childhood tasted. I was on the way to another chipper and happened upon this place by accident. Lovey staff. Clean establishment. Menu is not too small and not too big.

Never again raw chips and wait 20 minutes, I know its Christmas eve but wasn't even busy. Suppose staff want to get home to cook a decent meal

Popcorn chicken box great value for money best food about well done flash in the pan. Me and my girlfriend love it

Great fish & chips. A selection of fish available ( whiteing, plaice, cod, haddock)

Quite expensive for the quality of food but it's still one of the nicest chippys in the town.

Good enough feed as chipshops go.

Very good value lunch time specials. Currentl cost £3.45 but portions are large & you can choose from battered sausages & chip, pasties & chip & chicken breast & chip. All advertised with beans but you can have gravy, curry sauce, garlic mayo etc instead at no extra cost. Deal on from morning until evening!

This establishment has gone downhill since the last time we went there. Lots of staff but nobody actually organising the chaos. One minute the staff were cooking burgers etc, the next they were on the till, then packing orders, though the young girl was just moving the tickets around while the place was packed. Wouldn’t mind waiting a bit if it was worth waiting for. Overcooked nuggets, chips so hard they were difficult to chew due to their hard edges and about a quarter of them had to be discarded as they were so small and hard they were inedible. Felt like they didn’t care. Lots of food like chicken fillets, sausages and fish sitting in cabinet pre cooked but not being used. The owner needs to sort this out. Won’t be back.

Best chip shop in town, almost always perfect depending on who's cooking

Went on Sunday and it looked like the chips had been re-done, they were hard and slightly burnt. Fish is greasy but ok and it takes over 30 minutes for your food to be ready.

Frozen chips at £4 and drinks double the price of the Spar next door, not be returning anytime soon!

Fish supper here is excellent. Enormous portions & gives Mortons in Ballycastle a run for its money on the fish front. Nice friendly service as well. Highly recommended....... IF MY TELEPHONE ORDER IS GOING TO TAKE 30MINS THEN TELL ME ITS GOING TO TAKE 30MINS . EVERYTIME I PHONE IN AN ORDER, THE PERSON ON THE OTHER END ALWAYS SAYS 10MINS! ROBOT MODE IS NOT A GOOD MODE ! 😑

Vraiment bon. Et en bonne quantité aussi. Pas comme certaines enseignes où tu a faim après avoir mangé un menu. Je recommande.

A fantastic chippy, food is always fresh and the staff are great. I would highly recommend a visit

Beautiful peice of cod last night. Thank you.

Good food, bit pricy, great service.

We've been going to "the Flash" for years. It's a popular takeaway chip shop in Ballymoney, offering the usual chip shop menu. You can pay by cash or card. We normally go for a chippy tea on a Friday or Saturday evening. It can get very busy at times, though you can order over the phone for collection or delivery. Staff are mostly friendly, though there are a few dour, unfriendly members. Until recently it had always been pretty good with a consistent standard of food. Over the past few months it has become very expensive (like everywhere) but the main problem we've experienced is our order being incorrect. This can range from missing ingredients (eg no cheese in a cheeseburger) to items missing completely, even though we've paid for them. You can understand an occasional error but this has now become more and more commonplace. Unfortunately we live several miles away so it's not realistic to drive back to the shop when we discover the missing items at home.

Very expensive compared to other chippys. Food is good but they seem to have managed to squeeze their fish portion price up a fair bit more than other chippys.

My first fish and chips here. The fish was so well done I could hardly eat it. One end was so well done it could have broken your teeth. Maybe because I was not a local person they thought they would get rid of this to me. For £10,70 i was very disappointed. I had been at the Royal hospital for an appointment and was realky looking forward to it on the way home.

The Fish was georgious highly recommend

amazing chippy the staff are so kind and helpful and are so nice espeicially the young boy at the till would go again

Young man at the till is gorgeus

Amazing chippy! We visited Portrush recently and definitely make our way here just for the chips alone. Crispy, light perfectly cooked- and excellent customer service too. Reasonably priced.

I don't know what the thinking is behind putting the tomato, onions and relish on an untoasted bun and grilling the lot but it produces a very soggy and not very nice burger.

Very slow I phone my order in at 630 never got it till 750

Bit slow service but cod x chips were delicious .

We live a few miles away, got our food delivered n it was still very warm.. beautiful n very tasty . Gr8 service all round 🙂

Got delivery asked for 2 bottles of Fanta never got them Asked for salt and vinegar wasn't on any of it Asked for tub of beans and curry only got the curry feel ripped off never getting delivered again...

Great food and not long to wait

Very busy chip shop but great service and good food

One of the best chippies I ve ever visited

Very nice staff great food highly recommended

Great place , great service, food fantastic!

Great chippy you won't go hungry.

Call in at 18.15 Saturday 31st August ordered chicken jougon supper portion gravy and a small tub of garlic mayo 1 hour and 15 minutes later got my order which was absolutely horrible chicken tough dippers !! and cold hard soggy chips £9.45 !!!! The only way I could describe my visit was absolute nightmare!!!!!! Loads of staff but no organisation telephone orders deliveries and 15 customers waiting patiently outside for there food

Good food, always busy as can be. Never a problem with order.

Best chipshop in town doesn't take the hand out of the staff. They know what they are doing

First class food with gud customer service. Definitely worth a visit.

Excellent service. Food was beautiful.

Lovely fish. Would highly recommend

First visit to Flash in the Pan and we were not disappointed. Best we’ve had in NI so far. Definitely return for another fishy Friday

Through the years the food has usually been consistently good but the past 3 visits in 2021 have been very disappointing. The fish was very greasy, wasn't tasty and lacked much actual fish. The chips were average. Prices seem to be rising at fast pace also which would be easier to take if the quality was as good as it used to be. Hopefully things can get back to previously high standards. A fish supper at the time of the review was £8.10.

Best place in Ballymoney for fish & chips...Onion rings are fab too..quick service even when busy. Pleasant and friendly staff😀😀😀

Great food ,good size portions and value for money

Best fish I have tasted in a long time. Everything is always freshly cooked and the staff are very friendly and provide a very quick service

Mostly great food out of here, I have had the odd occasion where the chips seemed to not be very fresh, but that's rare. Definitely good stop for a chip shop dinner.

Food was lovely but waiting time was 40 min although have say they were very busy

Definitely one of the best we've experienced, but there's still plenty of room for improvement.

Love the chips, garlic mayo is unreal and burgers always cooked to perfection. Ever in Ballymoney, make a point in stopping by for a bite to eat. You won't regret it....

Great food, lunchtime specials hard to beat.

Fabulous food. Chips always lovely and crispy. Cooked to order so always fresh and worth the wait.

Absolutely amazing fast food. I love to get the occasional chippy, and flash is the best at what they do

Too chippy best fish buy far. Sometimes you will get one fish and others times you get two fish in a supper

Best chips in the toon. Even better when eaten in the grease pit

Beautiful fish. Thin batter. Chips and curry sauce delicious 😋

Fish which i should say fishes were great

Absolutely delicious food here, never had anything bad yet! They serve specials too, so your food doesn't need to be expensive!

The worse chip shop ever have to wait for a couple minutes with they should know. I was waiting in line. One eastern European told me to wait but. I been waiting for an hour until a white gentleman said have you be served . I said no so he served me other people are pushing in the line with. I was in the line. What a ridiculous takeaway shop it's not even a restaurant. It's just terrible. I probably won't go the again ridiculous behaviour.

Wanted out of the house for a couple of hours. Was recommended Flash In A Pan by a work colleague. It didn't disappoint. We travelled about an hour to it, but totally worth it.

Quite dear for a chippy but quality food. No card machine a minus

Friendly smiling staff , and the quality of their takeaway food is always first class ,I travel several miles for my cod &chips ,this is a family business that has expanded over the past 3 decades, well done Flash in The Pan

I went to this chipper after being recommended it by my friend Lewis nevin, I was expecting a delicious dinner for two! But alas, they completely screwed up my order those punks, inedible garbage!!!! Absolute morons those staff

Very clean friendly staff and the food always fresh and tasty. The fish is very good batter crispy chips great the only thing wrong they give you to much.

I really like the food and the staff in Flash in the Pan. You rarely go past the window but its full which to me is a good sign. They do great lunchtime and student specials and you can’t beat the chicken gravy!

Great food. Very busy and it's easy to taste why. Pleasant staff too

Really great food and great value for money.

Fantastic food and a Brilliant service

Parking can be difficult nice for a treat

Food is good. Would say it was expensive for this type of food. Cash only. Does not accept card payments.

great battered sausages supper way cheese inreal

The fish and chips was very good. And plenty of it 😀
