Was charged £7.30 for small sausage chips & curry sauce. Chips were dry & cold. The woman serving me ignored me for a few minutes while she asked/shouted at someone on other side of counter to go to aldi to get her some fruit & veg. Over priced awful food from a rude ignorant staff member - I definitely won't be back!!

Had to wait well over an hour for a missing item to be delivered. I was told a refund was not possible at all despite a missing item - that's illegal. Thick raw batter on fish; soggy batter on fish bite and sausage (the menu says "special crispy batter", this is wrong); food was not hot. I spoke to a woman on the phone the first time who was very abrupt, rude and completely ignored one of my questions. A really bad experience, very poor food and no regard or care for customer satisfaction.

Service is atrocious. I thought I was invisible. Rude and more rude. It's not hard to say hello when someone is standing in front of you.

Very nice chips and a good sized portion of thick and meaty cod. Nice crisp batter. Reasonably priced. Will definitely come back again.

I've been to Gills quite a few times over the last few years. Fish isn't bad but I decided to buy cod bites this time because the last few times the large cod has been very spars, with more batter than fish. The bites were fine, but the chips are awful. They were all scrag ends and not a decent chip amongst them. I'm not going back. I've always highly rated Gills but I'll be looking at other fish shops in wallsend.

Rang up to place my order for delivery and when it arrived it wasn’t the food I ordered and when I rang I started to explain my problem with a rude comment of let me tell you what you ordered then when I explained how I wasn’t at fault they told me I would have to pay extra for the order i originally wanted

Ordered for the first time tonight and the food was absolutely delicious. We ordered two chicken nugget kids meals, which were a very generous size. One cheeseburger meal and one chicken burger meal. Both were very tasty and would definitely order again!

Went in to purchase some food, about 7 staff there, after being ignored for about a minute, i was greeted with a rather aggresive, couldn't be bothered comment of 'won't be long' very bad start, after waiting another few minutes, i still wasn't served. I walked out. Having scanned the prices im pleased i walked out, lots of good chippys in Wallsend with a friendly welcome and much cheaper prices. Mr Gill who opened this chippy wouldn't be happy with the way this business has lost its customer focus. I won't return.

I ordered from Gills in Wallsend at 11:40, and the food was expected to come at 12:50 which worked within my lunch break at work. The food did not come until 13:50 which was 1 hour late and i was already back at my desk. i received my food but could not eat it as i am back to work once i called them to find out the situation on the order they where rude and hung up the phone.

I’ve been a long standing generally happy customer for many years. However They’ve recently jacked up their prices whilst implementing new packaging for kebabs and chips etc which reduces portion sizes. Even their sauce containers are a joke. They’re trying to look large whilst actually being significantly smaller than the old tubs. Paid nearly 17 quid for a Kebab with salad, sauces and a portion of chips. Disgraceful...absolutely shocking. Voting with my feet...I won’t be returning. Miami Pizza in walkergate and blue sea on the high street offer the same quality but better portion sizes and cheaper prices.

Large kebab, looked and tasted like plastic, awful real poor quality. Walk the extra 50 yards and take your pick off the High Street, more likely to find actual meat. Stick to the fish and chips.

I have purchased food from this takeaway a number of times, mostly fish and chips. The portion size is huge, so if you have a small appetite beware or share with someone else. The fish is always cooked to perfection, however, the chips can at times be a little undercooked.If you don't fancy fish and chips, this takeaway seems to offer just about everything you can think of to eat. I can't coment on anything other than the fish and chips though.

Over the years, I've been to Gills many a time and although it's traditionally known for being a chippy, the chips have never been sampled which may seem a bit bizarre but one thing I have been attracted to are the pizzas.Loads of toppings, always cooked to perfection and great value for money. For pizzas, this place is good!

Third time I have tried to eat here. Same issue every time. The service and attitude of staff are appalling. It is as if the whole place operates for the convenience of the staff. Today I was alone and wanted a quick lunch. There were a good number of empty tables inside. A notice inside the door instructed you to wait to be seated by a member of staff. After several minutes and staff just passing me by, I asked if I could sit down and was told in quite a disinterested manner just to find a seat. I did, looked at the menu, madd a quick decision and waited. No one came to take orders. I went to the counter and asked and was told I had to order there. I could see 4 staff behind the counter, none were taking orders. There was another customer in front of me. After a further 5 minutes of us both being ignored, I realised the staff were all dealing with takeaway food orders being sold through a hatch to the outside. The customer in front was eventually served and asked for 2 scones and two teas and was told bluntly 'It'll be a while mind - there's a long wait on orders'. The scones were in front of her and the tea would have taken 1 minute. However, the staff were too busy discussing takeaway orders and customers between them. The customer left the shop and I was left standing. No staff spoke to me. I left. I will never go back. It is my third visit and the same issues have been apparent each time. Customers are not the priority.

Absolutely honking Sunday dinner - possibly the worst I’ve ever ‘eaten’ . Don’t think any of it was cooked fresh - the roast potatoes were frozen (air fried I think) mush. The root vegetables were all brown. The chicken and gammon was dry. Just inedible - even the dog turned its nose up at it.
