Flaxmoss Chippy in Rossendale

Very disappointed. Have been coming here for a while for their fish and chips which were always fresh fish , freshly cooked while you wait. This time they provided something more like supermarket prepared battered fish. Was it cod… really? Was it fresh? The batter was like leather. It was dry and chewy. I will be giving this place a miss in the future.

This Chinese chippy is one of the best in the area, staff go out of their way and the prices reasonable. Pity they don't deliver..

Absolutely 💯 service food was fleshly cooked lovely staff and highly recommend the fleshly cooked fish & chips, one gripe curry a bit sweet.

Great Chinese food and chippy food. Cash only. Pre ordered as there is usually a queue. Highly recommended.

Great take away for chippy tea or lunch cforvthat mstter ,and the best Chinese food around 😋 👌 😀

Flaxmoss chippy is always very busy evertime I go there..the 3 Chinese ladies there are always very busy and very helpful and quick with all the orders..just wish they took card or phone payments...cash only though..food is always top quality and plenty of it aswell..👍👍

Friendly staff lovely fish and chips

Love this place. Nice fresh food, lovely and friendly atmosphere and the gravy is lush.

Great food but have to wait even when ordered over the phone.

Delicious food served in generous portions. Prices are very reasonable and staff are lovely. Half an hour's drive for us but so very worth it. Would not go anywhere else.

Lovely staff, even when busy the service is excellent. Service with a smile! Just a cut above any other Chinese rake away in the area. Beautifully cooked food at very reasonable prices. Definitely recommend.

Very good tasting fish and chips, consistently good.

Came for dinner, they don't take cards so couldn't order which was a shame as we didn't have enough cash.

Just what the Dr ordered after a long day on Thursday

Had fish and chips, very nice recommended

Been going here for years, best chippy/Chinese in the area.

Great Chinese chippy, chippy side can be bit hit and miss and usually a wait but never really been disappointed with place and Chinese side is always great

Exceptional value for money, fantastic chippy

Best fish and chip shop in northern England. If you're hankering for some proper fish and chips, look no further than Flaxmoss Chippy. This no-nonsense, takeout-only spot delivers on flavor and value. Don't let the humble exterior fool you - these folks know their way around a fryer. A top-notch choice for a quick and satisfying bite.

Extremely slow service and ignorant staff. Basic food, would not recommend

We arrived around 7ish on Monday 28th November, it was quite busy inside with people having orders to pick up that they phoned in and people ready to order then and there(me). I wasn't sure who had ordered yet but I went to the front counter and I was met with a lady that asked if i was picking up an order, I said no and that I was ready to order. I placed our order and I have to say the attention to detail is top notch, they write all the orders down on post it notes and I was worried she may of missed something so I anxiously watched the orders being made at a professional yet fast pace. You can tell these women who work there have perfected their craft, they are very organised and look like they never catch themselves behind with an order. Fresh chips were put in as the other batch was about to run out. I lucked out and got fresh out the fryer chips with our orders. As I watched everyone's orders get given out, it was my turn to watch ours get prepared and it was exactly as I said it. Portion sizes are generous and the chips are cooked through, I've had chips with a raw snap to them before but these were so soft and lovely. We got recommended this place and it did not dissapoint. My order was: Large Chips w/Gravy, Large Sausage seperately wrapped up, Cheese and Onion pie w/mushy peas, curry sauce and chips.. It came to £10.30, I'd say that's a bargain. You got to go here.

Best salt & pepper chips in Lancashire!

The best fish and chips for miles.

Great chippy, selling Chinese and fish and chips shop stuff. Always busy, so I'd call and order ahead.

Phoned in an order 45minutes before arriving. Had to wait a further 30 minutes after arriving on time. Got home only to find they had missed one of the dishes so I enjoyed a plate of boiled rice while the others ate theirs. To be fair the food was really good, but the incredibly long wait and missed food really puts me off going again.

Ordered from here for the first time, I must say it’s the nicest chippy I have ever had!! The food was extremely fresh and tasty by far the best will definitely be ordering again soon. Cash only makes it a little difficult but it’s worth it!!

Spot on. Can't really go wrong with this place. Maybe waiting time would bother you but that's because people keep coming bk, so it is what it is.

Gorgeous sweet and sour with fried rice at reasonable price

Well, one in a million!! Say no more😎

You can't really get any better than this. Never fails

£5.90 for fish and chips, portion size reduced significantly and dishes are inconsistent, I live near by, but can no longer support this business. I understand that prices are increasing, but when you increase the price and provide less at the same time, that is a poor decision and people will not pay more for less.

I now only get Chinese from here. Food is amazing, always hot and never get our order wrong. Brilliant prices for the quality you get!

There can be a bit of a wait, but it is worth it. Great fish and chips. Curry sauce excellent!

My favourite chippy. Always good quality fish and chips and nice staff.

Food poor & doesn't take card as payment.

Best Chinese and chippy in the area. Always consistently good food

BEST SALT N PEPPER CHICKEN EVER❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💕

Fantastic food and service and great prices

We wanted fish and chips on our visit to Haslingden and Flaxmoss Chippy was a great find. The staff were helpful and friendly despite being very busy. There was plenty of choice on the menu and overall our food was excellent.

Lovely food, helpful staff and fast service. Would highly recommend coming here.

Open in the afternoon. Hallelujah

Highly recommended food is always on point, they do need a delivery service though

Excellent service felt very safe Fish and chips good as well

Had a little bit of a wait but so so worth it... first time I've been and sure won't be the last. It was brilliant.

Lovely people and great food. Good service all round .

Everything freshly made, very Covid-proof and delic fish & chips and Cantonese dishes. The ladies are very polite and friendly too!

Really good value, food is great and the service excellent, highly recommended.

Joke of a place to be honest! Foods alright but not worth the wait at all. Go to one of the other 12 Chinese take aways in the 2 mile radius instead. We rang up and was told to collect an hour later... that seems fine, happy with that. So my pregnant girlfriend goes to collect it and ends up stood in the cold for over an hour outside waiting for them to acknowledge her and finish making the food!!! And by this point half of the stuff we ordered on the phone is now out of stock so we never even got the meal we asked for! I will never use this take away ever again. Absolutely Appalling service!

Only 4 stars as they don't deliver or accept card payment otherwise spot on

Allways good nice grub nice service with a big smile and fast

Nice food which is freshly cooked and hot.

Lovely people, great service and yummy food.

Not a bad chippy really. Staff are polite and there Chinese food is good.

Sad to say, we are unable to eat the fabulous Fish and Chips from this great shop. The Website says they are open but, they are closed Monday and Tuesday. Please amend your online info!!

As well as Chinese dishes available. Great tasty food, not greasy, and decent portions. Accepts advance orders by phone. Doesn’t deliver, but suspect they’re too busy to offer that service!

Always lovely. One of the best chippy's in the area. Had food from them almost every Friday lunchtime for the last 3-4 years and it's never been less than lovely. Edit. Went again after they re-opened after full lockdown and they are still cooking some lovely fish and chips. Nice precautions too with the plastic shields.

Been going here for years great service and better food.

Fantastic Smiley staff, Quick Service, And Delish food - If I could give 10 stars I would... I love the new window for Collecting phone orders Quicker 👍and you new sign 😁 Thank you for my food tonight see you next week 🌈😊 Chicken & Beansprout lady haha

Fresh well cooked food reasonably priced

Had fish and chips and it wasnt very nice at all plus I found it quite expensive. Wont be returning

Best spare ribs ever, great chippy as well.

Nice people nice service and lovely fish.

Simply the best chippy in the area, worth the wait when busy. Food is excellent, fish and chips is superb, Chinese food is awesome.

Good quality traditional fish and chips

Must be the best Chinese chippy I've ever visited, the food is second to none, you might wait a while for your order but it's well worth it.

Fish & chips were marvelous but they left the battered sausage off our order.

It's a few years since we used this chippy but we'll be going more often for a treat. Delicious, fresh, moist, tender cod (don't ask for Haddock - they don't sell it) coated in light, crispy batter. Chips equally good. (My personal preference would be for them a bit more crispy but they're fresh & tasty so still good). AND ...they come in paper, not polystyrene trays. (If they could use paper cups for peas and gravy it'd be perfect 😊)

Always great food at reasonable prices. They also serve the whole menu at lunch time and have parking just across the road.

Not been in yonks. Nice freshly cooked food. Definitely be going again

Gave this place another chance after a terrible experience a few months ago as we visit family in Helmshore. Sorry to say nothing has changed!! Phoned at 5pm (opening time) was told 20 minutes. As we drove down Helmshore Rd customers were queued along the foot path. Had to join the queue as everyone in front of me had also telephoned their order. I had to wait another 30 minutes. A man came in and gave Alan his order wrote on a scrap of paper and waited outside. 15 minutes later Alan knocked on the window and told him his food was ready. Everyone who had been stood in the queue looked at me flabbergasted!! I questioned this as it was very unfair soon after my food appeared. But after spending over £28 two out of the 3 main meals were inedible as it had been laced with hot pepper!!! 😡

Best chippy in the area Chinese food is fantastic too never disappoints

Great food, can get busy so get your order in early!

We called one lunchtime as we were passing we just fancied fish and chips but it was'nt great pale chips greasy fish cooked in a funny tasting oil not a good experience at all.

Lovely little Oriental Chippy. Fairly large menu and prices are reasonable. Would give 5 stars if it had a card-reader, but it's cash only. Otherwise can't fault it.

This is our local Chinese fish and chip shop. The fish is cooked to order and we have found that one serving feeds 2 of us. The curry has the typical flavor, portions are good. There is always a line here when I go. I went at 5pm this time and there was only one other person there It must be good as it is never empty.

Very nice English and Chinese food

Good Chinese chipe with car park

Really bad. Firstly messed my order up so I had to go back and get the correct one. and my steak pud was under cooked.

Great fish and chips best in rossendale 👍👍

Great food always freshly made yeah there maybe a queue sometimes but that’s because it’s popular every Friday night is takeaway nite a right treat 😁

Chinese chippy and one of tge best in the local area. You will have to wait a bit here but you always got well cooked and goid tasting food

Best chippy in town. Does not do delivery and is usually very busy so be prepared to wait. Worth it though.

Been going here since I was a kid and it changed hands about 10 years ago and it's still really good.

The fish and chips were awful the fish had been kept warm and it was dried out would never go again.

Great take out. Fish is always freshly cooked. Decent sized portions as well. Can recommend

A typical local chippy / Chinese takeaway. Food is not bad, place is small but clean. Can get busy, but that also shows that it is popular

Excellent food but be prepared for a lengthy wait in the evenings as it is very popular due to how good it is.

Great food as always. I go here in a regular basis and recommend it to everyone. Great staff as well always friendly.

the best chippy around! the portions are absolutely massive and the prices are very very reasonable too!

Been to this chippy a few times now. Never had an issue and serves good food too. Not ordered Chinese meals though just english

Service is great very good food and very friendly

I came back to Helmshore to visit family, did an old tradition of calling into flaxmoss on the way out, i'll give the place something it doesn't change for no man.

Been coming here for takeaways for 19 years. Served our family really well. Spotlessly clean. Really tasty food cooked to order and friendly.

Lovely food can’t keep away !very good menu gets very busy so be prepared to wait.but worth it!,,,,,,,,,

The best fish and chips. Chips always crisp and fish just the right amount of batter lovely and crisp, nothing is left soaked in oil as with most chip shops. YOU MUST TRY

Both Chinese and English foods are great, great value and plenty of it, fish and chips is delicious, one of the best around, I love the Chinese food here as well, the salt and pepper chicken fillets are gorgeous, I’m there all the time when I’m in the area.

Lovely fish and chips and I'm fussy ! Wide variety of take away food on offer here. Service is quick and good.

Was recommended to me by a friend and decided to give it a try. Was not disappointed. Exactly how a chip shop should be from a chip shop.

The food at flaxmoss is lovely but the organisation is shocking. I ring my order through every week 1 hour before I want it and I still have to wait 20 minutes in the chippy. Well I say in the chippy most of the time I end up at the back of the queue stood on the pavement in the pouring rain. The staff never acknowledge the fact that you have had to wait much longer than necessary they don’t even say thank you when you pay. Here we have a problem of maximum profit and least expenditure in other words GREED!!!

Tasty, reasonable priced food with a chinese takeaway & chippy style menu, generous portion sizes & excellent customer service 👍
