…. Down at the beach with the dog, thoughts turned to chips, so we stopped off at Green Lane fisheries (open 11am to 3pm Saturdays). Thinking of the dog and his love for fish we ended up with freshly cooked chips and 2 pieces of cod. Obviously people had similar ideas as the small shop was busy, with great service. No ‘batter’ was available but our meal for two plus one dog was lovely.

This has been my local fish and chip spot for decades... in fact, it's been that way for as long as I can remember. It's kind of a tragedy that this isn't often mentioned in those "Best Fish and Chips of South Shields" lists, and rather it's overpriced and underwhelming places such as Colman's and the like that seem to get the limelight. Now, I'm not trying to slate Colman's at all here, I'm simply saying that I find Green Lane far superior to anywhere else I know of when it comes to fish and chips. I remember going here as a child with my parents (I'm in my mid-thirties now) and the place has never changed. It's old-fashioned, traditional, clean, warm and friendly. I visited recently and the manager handed a can of pop to a kid waiting in line just in front of me, which brought back fond memories of when he did the same to me back when I was a young'un. (I tried not to take offence that he no longer saw any such youthful charm behind my eyes, and thus I'd have to pay for my pop like normal.) That's the kind of stuff you don't see anymore, the warm and special treatment of what seems to be a bygone era. That really is great to see. In my experience, their food is always lovely, the portions are very generous, the value is unbeatable, and the staff are always friendly and actually look happy to be there. This, to me, comes as quite a shock to the system when you go to a lower standard place in the town centre, for comparison, perhaps to end a night of ale, and you see the pale, grim beings behind the counter, shovelling toenail clipping-style chips into paper with one hand while they roll a cigarette with the other, often shouting at each other in a type of undecipherable chippy code. Green Lane has it down pat, knowing what's best and keeping things the way they work best too. They're not fixing what isn't broken, they're not begging for followers on Instagram or for you to add them on Snapchat for 10% off your next order. They're just doing it right. I'm going to keep going back here when I want fish and chips, and if you're reading this, I advise you do the same! Well done everyone there for keeping it fresh and real all the time. All the best!

I’ve always considered this place one of the greatest chippies in the north east, and last time I went I was massively disappointed, the fish was dry and the chips just weren’t up to normal standard, I took it on the chin and put it down to an “off” day.Visited again today and got the sausage and chips, the sausage was a little overdone and the chips again were over greasy and again well below their standard.Sadly, I’ll not return.

The manager, his wife and staff always take time to welcome you no matter how busy the fish shop is. This is an old fashioned shop with fishing memorabilia and art all over the walls. If you want something other than cod they will always try and get it for you. Couldn’t fault our supper tonight, fish bites and chips, cheese Pattie and chips and gravy and the obligatory ‘batter’.

As a lifetime commercial fisherman in the North Sea I do know quality fish and this is exactly what you get here at a reasonable price. If this shop was in the town centre you would. Not get near.Too many of our fish and chip shops use skinned Icelandic frozen cod for convenience and call it fresh local fish which it is definitely not. I do know this shop buys its fish from North Shields fish Quay which is one of our premier fresh fish ports on the North east coast . We use this shop as a family at least once a week

Still ran by the same brothers, this local and proper fish and chip shop never disappoints. Great service, excellent choices of different fish, great value portions and the tastiest batter combine to make this the best in South Shields. Forget the sea front chip shops, although decent they can't touch this place (or should that be plaice). Legendary in the town don't miss out.

Pizza's were nice but the fish and fish cakes were genuinely the worst I've ever eaten in my entire life. Extremely dry and the batter was extremely thick and greasy, as if it had been refried with a second or third layers of batter. The thing was a weapon on a plate.
