Gold Medal in Tameside

£2 70 thrown away chips not cooked properly asked for salt ONLYshe put vinegar on put them in bin will be telling all our friends and family not to visit ever again horrible

I used to frequent this chippy regularly and went there after many years whilst back in town. Whilst the fish and chips are still excellent in taste, the tables and chairs were filthy, salt all over the chairs and no one seemed to be cleaning them. The plates that the meals are served on are more like side plates than dinner plates. Disappointing about the establishment as the food is still tasty

Really lovely fish, chips, peas and gravy dinner, we really enjoyed it, lovely batter and thick white fish. Will definitely recommend

Excellent fish and chip restaurant. Very clean and tidy family run establishment. The food is cooked to perfection. Very good service and friendly staff.

This chippy has got to be one of the worst chippies I've ever visited. The food I ordered was disgusting & the service I received was horrible. The staff are very rude not one please or thank you.

Went to get take out meal, some of the food order was missing, so rang them and they said fine, I went the next day to collect my money for missing items and the cook called me a liar, disgusting food, place is filthy, rude staff

Took my daughter in as she likes the chips to take away now and again. Wish I'd not bothered, staff were very rude, highly unwelcoming. The place itself felt grubby, the food was dry and unappetising, had to pay for sauce sachets even though we sat in and this seemed too much trouble for the young girl who served us to provide. I'm sure I'd have had a better experience in a prison canteen.

love going ingolden bowl great place come from oldham to ashton now like going in and having fish and peas and going in the inside market

Food service terrible. Staff were rude and unwelcoming didn’t feel as if they valued my custom. Staff looked unhappy, not a smile between themFood was very poor wasn’t cooked fresh or to a reasonable standard.Young girl with dark hair behind the counter needs to learn some customer service skills eating food whilst serving and chatting to her pals. Not happy AVOID at all costs don’t bother wasting your money

What can i say apart from avoid like a virus . £4 65 for pie chips and peas in a small carton chips dried from low quality potatoes a spoonfull of cheap peas and a microwaved pie . Obviously staff used to serving low quality food to people who accept it .

Popped in with my partner what terrible service, girl behind the counter was rude and didn’t know what she was doing.Basically threw my change at me the man cooking the food was dirty batter all over him. & was to busy on his phone to even notice a paying customer. RudeFood wasn’t the best Wont be returning in a rush

After walking past this place for a while I decided to go in with the folks and see what it was like and I was not disappointed, you order your food first at the counter and then they shout your order number when your food is ready, I ordered fish chips peas and curry and the portion was huge and fresh. It’s rare to find good fish and chips these days and this place I would definitely go back to.

I visit the UK once a year and this is a must stop. Staff are friendly and the the food is just outstanding! Love this place. English & Chinese curry with your cod goes down really well.

As I approached the chippy the woman working there was smoking a cig outside the chippy and was on the phone. She then said it’s only takeaway only, we went in and she followed us in and came off her phone and served our food without washing her hands after she had smoked a cig which is disgusting. She was very unfriendly and was only interested in taking the money and getting us out as there was a others waiting, as they was closing in the next 30 minutes! The food was absolutely disgusting I ended up binning it and going elsewhere. Best of luck to anyone that visits

cooked mainly to order if you want fish. good space to eat in. staff depending whos on nice ish does well but closes about 5pm so no good for your afters

Pleasant enough fish and chips but portions not large enough to justify the £5 cost. I feel that £1.75 for a tray of chips (not even full) is too expensive. I’m not sure what fish cost elsewhere but in Gold Medal they are £3.25 and not especially large. I enjoyed it but won’t be rushing back.

I had not been in this sit down chippy with plastic diner style seating for a number of years. You go up to the counter to order your food, from a range of traditional northern english fish and chip shop ingredients.I had fish(did not say what fish. guessing cod?), chips, mushy peas and curry sauce. A decent portion of well cooked golden brown and tasty chips,a lovely piece of fish full of flavour and a good sized portion(guessing cod), as they did not say, a decent flavourful curry sauce, washed down with a can of orange tango. My son had fish and chips enjoyed his, could not eat all the fish as he had such a large potion.They do a range of pies, including a rag pudding( a bit like a steak and kidney pudding), which is well worth trying. A range of drjnks.Friendly and polite service and very good value.Recommended.

Are here with the wife and 2 kids. to be honest I'd heard decent things about it and it's usually busy so might have just been today it was....well a bit rubbish.The service was mechanical and not really sent good. And the foodd, while a bit pricey was also not nice.The fish tasted like it was eat there a bit too long.I'd give the place another go in the hope this was just a bad time

Quick service, excellent freshly cooked fish, very clean and very pleasant staff. Eat in or take away. Would recommend.

Last time i went i had rag pudding chips n gravy very expensive & very stingy portion a lot of people like it but i think its overrated 7 overpriced

Ashton market on Tuesday us a general flea market which I found to be very good, lots of different stalls, very cheap too.

Very tasty fish & chips always nice & fresh it is good because u can sit in & have bread & butter & a cup o f tea or coffee

Absolute rubbish! I went in tonight with my partner after really fancying a chippy tea.We were told there was a wait for chips which was fine. I ordered fish, chips and peas for my partner and just a portion of chips for me. We got home and on unwrapping them, I was really disappointed with the paltry soggy portion of chips I had been given. On top of this, my partner found his fish was missing. I had to run back to ask for it and when I did bring it back, it was really thin and he was disappointed. A real waste of £7.00.To be fair, I should have avoided the place after another incident I had when I sat in there with my partner and his kids. I ordered cheese and onion pie and chips and when the waitress brought it over, there was gravy all over the chips. I told her I didn't want it as I hadn't asked for gravy and don't like it. She then argued with me that I had and was also loudly telling her colleagues that I had asked for gravy, even though I hadn't. You shouldn't argue with customers, you just apologise and change the order. To be fair, when I got the correct order, it was really nice so that's why I went back tonight but that was the last time.I shall stick to the chippy near The Advertiser office from now on.

The aroma drags you in on any day. Even if your not hungry. We visit on a regular basis whilst shopping in the town centre. The fish and chips are always fresh. The seating inside is a little cramped but just about ok. No space for strollers or wheelchairs. You pay a premium for sitting in but it's not extortionate. It bugs me that you have to pay extra for ketchup, why?? It's a condiment not an extra side like mushy peas.

We have been to this chippy several times whilst shopping in Ashton centre. The food is really lovely but prices for take out appear to be a bit expensive. As far as service ( and we seem to get the same woman every time)you are greeted with the words " what do ya want?" -and it really is quite shocking and takes you aback! Now I know busyness could be used as an excuse but we were the only ones waiting to be served. For all we know she may be the owner and thinks it is ok to speak to people in this manner but if she was my member of staff and I heard the way she spoke to customers she would know this is not acceptable.

Over priced, for fish chip and gravey two muffins and two cans of coke came to ten pounds, fish was greasy and small portion of chips, staff were arguing in front of customers, and could not even bring the food to the table, and just shouted over for us to get food. Not gonna be rushing back here

Best chippy for miles. The fish is delicious, wish all chippys are this good. Lovely mushy peas, and nice clean diner area.

We found the Gold Medal by typing 'FISH' into the SatNav after visiting IKEA, which is just around the corner from it.The fish was cooked to order and was fantastic, but the chips used for our meals were the last of a batch and, unfortunately, weren't the best.At £4.50/portion, they were very good value for money and I would happily recommend the Gold Medal to anyone.

I've been visiting this Chippy for many years and it's always been great. It's a traditional style Fish & Chip restaurant. It's nice and clean and the staff are friendly. Sometimes you do have to wait as it can get really busy but it's worth it!

Over priced for a chippy mushy peas were hard don't mind paying the extra for good food but I expect a decent fish cake not frozen from asda

nice and clean inside all the staff are very good, just love the gravey try the fish n chips well worth it .

Food is always outstanding here and service is quick and friendly, a little on the expensive side for a chippy but can't go wrong with the food so you get what you pay for.
