Hollowgate Fisheries Ltd in Kirklees - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Ive visited this takeaway a number of times and thus it’s time to leave a review. Ordered the fish chips, and peas from the menu. Overall the quality of the food was ok, although the portion size was very large, and it seemed very greasy in the taste buds. Next time I will order the smaller size and thus it will be better value for money. Another point to consider is the place looked like it needed a late spring clean up.

Popped in for cod and chips sunday pm.had to wait for fish to be cooked, absolutely no problem with that..decent portions,piping hot,nice fish fairly good chips .no issues at all, very pleasant staff.had much worse at so called “top notch” chippys.

Fish & chips were average. All freshly cooked but not the best chips. Can’t fault the staff though, all were friendly and helpful. Reasonably priced. Restaurant opened at 4:30pm, we arrived at 5pm but they had already closed the eating area upstairs. Was very disappointed with the indoor seating issue. If the restaurant was open until 7pm then the upstairs area should have been opened until 7pm too.

Called in at about 6.15pm tonight, Friday 23rd June. Staff friendly. Thats it. the fish wasnt fresh, the batter was greasy and like cardboard. The chips werent fresh, also greasy and soggy. whatever they cooked them in was smelly old fat or oil. If I pay good money for food I expect nice clean tasting fish and chips. That's all I wanted and i think thats fair. I think you know that this was sub standard and you are doing yourselves or the owners a disservice. If I could afford the petrol I would bring the food back but unfortunatelyinstead, I put it in the bin.

We stayed locally overnight and came here for a takeaway supper. If you like overdone chips and rubbery fish with almost burnt batter then you’ll be fine.

Simple fish and chips can’t go wrong, food taste good and generous portions my new chip shop after compos have gone down hill. Service can be a bit slow but worth wait

My experience was spoiled because they (2 young women working there yesterday) kicked up tremendous fuss about me putting my own salt and vinegar on. Apparently this is highly objectionable. A shame because the ridiculousness spoilt me enjoying my meal. Fish and chips cost so much these days, the least an establishment can do is let you put your own salt and vinegar on so you can have it as you like it. If they think it’s a hygiene thing then leave wipes out or something. To quibble over something so trivial is uncalled for and unnecessary. I suggest rethinking the “salt and vinegar policy”. The cost of living crisis will be very cruel and only traders putting their customers wishes at the heart of their business model will survive it.

We are on holiday over Christmas in beautiful Holmfirth and today decided to have a fish and chip supper after a 9 mile walk. The service was excellent. The young assistant was patient, polite and attentive. When the food was ready she asked for our preferences on salt and vinegar etc, packed our supper up and said “have a nice evening”. Faultless, well done. We got back to,our accommodation and began to eat. The fish was lovely. We had to remove the greasy batter because the fish was literally “swimming” in it (excuse the pun). The chips were absolutely disgusting! You could taste that they had been cooked in over-used oil and had a foul taste. Needless to say for £11.60 we ate batter less fish with no chips and would not return or recommend Hollowgate Fisheries.

The fish is fresh and it's tasty and well made. Chips are great! Reasonable prices. Good menu. Recommended.

Food is nice Staff are rude for a very long time my family has been using this chippy but after the way we was spoken to today my family will now be using compos

I live in Holmfirth and have regularly used this chippy, each time I visit I swear I will never use it again, the quality is okay but the service and organisation is (leaving COVID to one side) is abysmal, I repeatedly have to wait longer for my takeaway then it ultimately takes me to eat it.

It might only be my third visit but I have always been impressed with the service and more importantly the quality of their fish and chips. Drove over from Sheffield today and I wasn't disappoint. Also good Covid organisation in place. Keep up what you are doing.

Shocking service. When glamping nearby we ordered several meals and drinks to collect. When we arrived back at the campsite we discovered one fish and two drinks were missing from the bag. We telephoned to politely request a refund to our credit card for these items and they refused, saying that we were lying!

Used to be my favourite fish & chips, but during this last year the food and the service have become hugely disappointing. Wait times have become ridiculously long, even when there have been only one or two customers in front. I was tricked this evening into thinking I might get something to eat in a reasonable time - one customer had already ordered and there was one other customer in front of me. It took 35 minutes before I had my food. Ok Hollowgate Fisheries, you win. I have persevered during the last year out of loyalty, but this will be my last visit. I will miss you, but I can’t stand outside for such a long time with hardly any queue. I understand you have people ordering by ‘phone, but your speed of service has become glacial. In addition, the quality of your food has gone from good/excellent to poor/mediocre. There is no sense of urgency anymore, and a lack of care in the cooking.

It’s not run in a professional manner and COVID safety procedures not very good. We ordered food for 6. Arrived to find a queue at the door. Next person in just took our order. Really , how can the names on the order not even be checked? If that is not being checked what else isn’t. Also the man who went in was not wearing a mask and he was in there for a good 15 minutes. When I queried this, I was told he was mask exempt. Well the masks are there for our protection not his, so he was breathing in the shop for over 15 minutes without a mask with all the food around. The procedure for mask exempt should be to bring the food out to him. It took us 40 minutes to finally get our order and the staff didn’t seem sorry at all, in fact they seemed positively happy at the situation. We won’t be going back because of questionable procedures + safety all around. If there’s these issues, what else that we haven’t seen? We can say that in line with other reviewers the quality of the fish and chips has gone downhill. Bland fish and greasy chips. We used to get fish an chips here every week before COVID - but no more. 4 less customers.

Have visited many many times over the last 5 years and it’s always been excellent but yesterday was a big disappointment.The fish was very over cooked and the batter was dark brown-plus a 20 minute wait! It’s such a shame to produce food like thiswill I return I doubt it.

Sending the restaurant a direct message as my experience today does not reflect previous experiences in this establishment which is normally five star excellent

Its not easy as a proud Lancastrian to admit I have to go to Yorkshire for first class fish and chips. So today my wife and I set out for the Holmfirth in West Yorkshire to see what this well known little town had to offer by way of great chippy's.We asked the buskers who were performing in the town's centre for their recommendation. They advised us to go to Hollowgate Fisheries which we duly did.The shop was sticking to COV19 rules so we joined the orderly que [socially distance of course!] ordered 2 cod and chips and found a nearby bench were we could scoff our takeaway. The generous portion of white flaky cod was covered in a deep brown very crispy batter and was delicious. The chips were piping hot and very tasty. I think we paid just under £12 for our two meals but boy they were worth it! If eating fish and chips out of a tray in the open air is something you enjoy then I would strongly advise you to give Holloway a try , I'am confident you wont be disappointed.

Busy laying a patio and not much time to spare.. nipped here for convenience and we were delighted. Fish butty handsome, well cooked and perfect batter. Lovely staff, served by Ellie - nice touch have names on their uniforms. All in all, great service and excellent food :)

We are regulars at this chip shop, but we’ll think twice before going again after tonight’s experience. My wife has short hair, and isn’t particularly ‘girly’ as such. Tonight we went to get a Friday night chippy, and she went in to make her order. We waited outside as per the new C19 rules, and waited for our name to be called. They called her name, and she went in. Her name is feminine so there was literally no excuse for the following upset. The staff behind the till then said “there HE is, oh I mean SHE” and then they all laughed. She was mortified and embarrassed as well as being upset. Absolutely disgusting behaviour to display to a customer. It was totally unnecessary and hurtful, and I’m a time when we should all be coming together, totally disgraceful. We shouldn’t leave feeling humiliated when buying fish and chips. I suggest the owners talk to the youngsters who were working, before they loose you more customers.

If you want a good chippy, then Hollowgate is it. The fish cakes are HUGE. Chips are nice. The fish is a good size and not dripping in fat. Even have proper chipshop curry sauce! You can order as a takeaway or sit in and eat it; although it can be cold in the restaurant as there's no heaters.

A decent chippie in the centre of Holmfirth that actually bothers to open occasionally and keep their google opening times up to date so people don’t make useless journeys a bit of a novelty in Holmfirth it would seem!

Friendly and cheerful ladies serving. Amelia gave us useful information about the area too. Really enjoyed our fish sand chips .

By the look of the other reviews Im the odd one out. I just had fish and chips and if that's one of the best Im a monkeys uncle. The chips were cooked in hydrogenated oil and they weren't cooked properly and they were bloody awful the fish wasn't bad. I threw the chips in the bin because that's all they were good for. Friendly staff thou but I wont be back anytime soon.

We visit Holmfrith often and have been doing for 15yrs, we always make sure we have time for Fish, Chips, Fishcake and scraps from Hollowgate, it's always good, chips in beef dripping and fishcakes that are fabulous, make sure you go for one even if nothing else.

Lovely fish and chips, reasonably priced. Shame they dont sell pinaepple frirtters as these are my favourite.

Food was served piping hot, best gluten free fish and chips I have had. Will certainly go again when in the area, served only on Wednesdays. Staff very friendly . You pay when you have had your meal in the restaurant.

Lads and I visit many Fish and chip shops across the North West and have been to this place before and was okay last time few tea ago.However I do not know if they have changed hands and looking at recent reviews not do good either.Was going to go go Compos up the road but that haz not got good reviews either.All of us very dissatisfied last night Fish bland not good batter and chips definitely been reheated def not good

On a busy May Saturday lunchtime you would expect fish and chips flying out of the frier, lively service and almost instant food.

Called in here when visiting the Picturedome for a takeaway supper. The seated area was closed so we ordered a takeaway and sat on some nearby benches. We both had fish (Cod) and it was perfectly cooked throughout and very tasty, the chips were tasty too. The food was nice and hot so we enjoyed our takeaway. The young lady serving was very pleasant and efficient too.

Decent fish and chips and good long opening hours, you can usually get served when everywhere else is closed so it is very convenient, one issue is they sometimes run out of haddock and I don't like cod so have just chips!!

Popped in here on a dismal November day out..Glad we did.ordered fish and chips twice and had no problems waiting the 5 minutes whilst the fish was cooked to order..gorgeous chunky flakes of prime haddock wrapped in a tasty batter and piping hot chips..first visit for us but won't be the last ..and for just a tad over a fiver a portion represents Excellent value for money.

Really nice fish and chips, nicely cooked, would have been 5 star apart from later on nearer closing they always say they don't have any haddock when they have cod already cooked and I never eat cod so have to dash to Compos need to always have haddock has an option.

Stopped off for fish and chips on the way home. I found the chips a bit soggy for my liking, and the batter a little thicker than I like.

We had lunch here today and they were the best fish and chips we have had in a long time. They do kids box meals and we got a kids sausage and chicken nugget meal, these came with a kids drink, little emoji toy and stickers which we weren’t expecting and the kids loved them. They also do a small cod and chips but we prefer haddock, decent portion size (small would be sufficient for the average appetite) and really good quality. They cook the fish fresh to order so you wait a while but it’s worth the wait.

Chips fried in beef dripping, obviously, not for vegetarians but for us meat eaters these chips were some of the best I have ever tasted and great portions as well.

Stop here on the way home on match days..always been good,nice crispy batter,white succulent flakey fish,cooked in beef dripping,really nice chips,even better wi bits.....washed down with a can of ben shaws ,beautiful,taste even better with 3 points in the bag,UTT ,cant wait to go back..

I had some time ago posted a glowing review of this chippy, I travel all the way from Denton in Manchester to buy Haddock here, Unfortunately on my last three visits I have been told they don't have haddock today

Popped in for a sit-down meal. The food here used to be absolutely delicious but now only average, if that (I speak as a lifelong frequenter of fish and chip shops/cafes). Chips were dry and a bit cardboardy - obviously been hanging around for a while. Fish OK. Mushy peas a bit tasteless, a small quantity served in a small pot. Tiny amount of tea in pot - hardly enough for two small cups (a bit mean). Not terribly impressed overall and won't return. New owners who took over a few years ago must be behind the decline in standards. They've also cut the times the cafe is open. Come back the old proprietors - all is forgiven!

Went into hollowgate tonight it was very poor the pies are not even homemade pies and they were rock hard. Since the new owner has taken over it has gone down hill big time, i won't be coming back ever and i won't be telling other people about it. I will be telling other people to go somewhere else. And the fish was small as ever, the chips were cold will not be coming back!

I live local and don't normally buy my fish and chips from here. I was very pleasantly surprised as the quality of both the haddock and the chips was superb. the service was excellent too. Will definitely be back there next time.

Firstly I am a local and wanted to write a positive review but sorry...

We visited this fish & chip shop with our grandson thinking we would be getting fish & chips 3 times to take home, however when we arrived we noticed that there was seats & tables set. We checked the menu & there was an OAP offer... this turned out to be very good value & great fish, chips & mushy peas with bread & butter & a hot drink.... We now go often, have the OAP offer & leave satisfied....

We called in for lunch (takeout) The fish was inedible and grey in colour, the batter was stuck to the paper. Poor service and even worse food, we didn't eat any of it We won't be going again

The best fish and chips in Yorkshire. Every time I go back to Holmfirth this is my first stop befor anywhere else. Dine in options try the mushy peas and curry sauce with your cod and chips, add a pot of Yorkshire tea. Yum.

Recently back to my Yorkshire home, my retirement treat was fish and chips. On Saturday Nov 4th @ 4.30 I bought them at Hollowgate dreaming of crisp .

Some of us had the Haddock and some the fishcakes, the food came, lovely crispy batter, chips done to a turn and piping hot mushy peas, with tea, bread and butter from around £6.00, a truly lovely meal.

Having moved to Manchester some years ago, I find it a bit of a trek travelling all the way to Leeds in order to eat my fave Fish & Chips, I discovered Hollowgate chippy some time ago and have to say they do a mean haddock and chips, I still visit Coe's chippy in Leeds but more often than not I stop over in Holmfirth for my Haddock & Chips.

In Yorkshire we are told they love their fish and chips which are amongst the nations best. Well this one...

friday night take away fish and chips and cheese burger excellent but wished i had had fishcake they looked suburb

Some very mixed reviews on here! From one extreme to the other. My experience was neither terrible or great. Ordered and had to wait but not for too long. Fish and chips were decent, nothing amazing but not terrible either. Felt odd eating them on a Sunday though!

Wanted 3 fish. No other customers in shop. 2 fish were ready. I asked have you only 2 ready but was told by older lady that she could hear one frying suggesting it would be quick.! Two separate families followed me in both with 2 children. A man also came in after me. They were all served before me leaving me the only customer left. On asking how long fish take to fry I was told 4 mins. If this was the case my fish were give given to customers who came after me. When questioned the mature lady said I have a receipt here timed 4 mins ago. Indeed she did but it cannot have been mine! Good deceptive and clever attempt to fool me which it initially did. I was told I could ring my order in several times. I replied I had been coming in without ringing for over FIFTY YEARS! Obviously she thought I was a tourist. Shame on your attempted deception. I realise your only 'power' is to make some customers wait but that day you chose the wrong one. You left me to wait a minimum 15 mins for a 4 min fish and attempted to deceive me. Hence the terrible score.

Well was feeling a bit hungry just going to meet my friends daughters birthday and I fancied a fish that or had fields bakers had bad food before from here but to my amazement the fish was lovely carnt comment on the chips the fish melted in my mouth must admit the owner still looks like she wonts to kill some one are well but congratulations to the guy who was cooking keep it up see what it's like next time you can all but hope !!!!

Good price and excellent fish and chips to take out. Open until 9 p.m. at night. Senior citizen size meal available.

Wednesday lunchtime 19 July, Once again we have been subjected to overcooked fish, what is so hard about doing it right. £3.45 each for dry fish in a very dark looking flat batter. I suspect it's been done in what's known round here as mucky fat.

Stopped by for lunch (4 adults), about 5 minutes to 2 pm (just before closing). They welcomed us in anyways. Staff were welcoming. All of us had the fish(cod) and chips on the menu. Fish was done to perfection, very little batter, and tender as can be. Chips were fresh made and cut(not from a bag), and the meal was served hot. Seating was ample, although the 4 person tables just a bit cramped. Washrooms upstairs were clean and modern. Prices were quite reasonable...both on the food and alcohol. Would go again and recommend same to others.

Four of us had a fantastic fish and chips lunch today. Nice portions of fresh fish and the best chips I've had in a long time. The staff were very friendly as it was close to closing time when we arrived. We'll definitely be going back.

Excellent fish and chips not greasy... £4.95 not huge portions but enough, pleasant staff will visit again thank you

We fancied fish and chips.We had too wait for the fish too be cooked fresh no problem.When we got back too where we were staying we unwrapped the fish and chips and found we were disappointed with the whole thing.The fish was over cooked and the chips were soggy .The distance we traveled​ was only 3 miles . So it had no great effect on the meal, as it only took a couple of minutes to get too unwrap the meals.It was one of the worst fish and chips I have ever experienced.I will never go there again

Good food, helpful and friendly staff. Well worth a visit as other fish and chip places are outside town

We ate here yesterday. The food was hot, tasty and the batter on the fish was excellent. Good cup of tea too . Prices very reasonable.Nice clean and friendly cafe and takeaway.

Got takeaway fish butty and chips food tasted good but a regular size portion of chips was tiny and not worth the money. Also they had no bits to put on the chips, woman was not very friendly and could have made more of an effort.

Fairly standard fish and chips that everyone was happy with. Prices were only slightly over average and there was a little wait but due to the fact that the place was obviously popular. Glad we went there!

Called in for a bite to eat at lunchtime, not very hungry so just ordered a fish, sorry I did it left a lot to be desired. There was more batter than fish and it was very overcooked, the batter was nearly black. Would not return.

Every time we always get a big tasty fish, probably some of the best fish I have had around yorkshire

Probably the best fish and chips in the centre of Holmfirth. Pop over the road and eat them off the wall whilst watching the river flow by.

After visiting Hepworth, we found our way to Holmfirth, for lunch, across the bridge I could smell the fantastic aroma of fish & chips. We followed out nose and found what we were looking for, we entered and sat down at the last table, no frills just fish and chips peas bread and tea lovely.Under £20 with a voucher for next time given to us, we now have to go back.See you soon

The establishment had a cafe perfect for eating indoors! The food was good and the service was very good... the chippy/cafe do both takeaways and also you can eat in Overall the cafe was clean and well maintained

nice plc some of staff ok od one not, chip well nice the fish needs some work, thay have a wide rang of stuff ,over all wood say give it a try ,

Called in for lunch whilst in Holmfirth. Parking is a nightmare - you can't but park illegally. But got away with it. Woman serving was very friendly to all including myself. Food was above average. Quite busy due to some offer they had on - everybody had coupons from a newspaper.Now feel free to call this petty, but for me this cost them the excellent score. The guy in front of me ordered fish & chips twice, I ordered F+C once, the guy behind me ordered F+C twice, the lady behind him ordered F+C once. So she served the guy in front of me (2xF&C), then the guy behind me (2xF&C), then the lady behind him (1xF&C), before serving me (1xF&C). I'm a bugger for hating queue jumping. Now if it was just one person, I could call that a mistake. But serving 3 times what I ordered when I was first just annoyed the hell out of me.

Couldn't be fast food if they tried ! But one get one free offer they should expect to be busy! It was.I was second in line was told to wait a few minutes for fish.25 minutes later they start serving First Lady...then should be me but know the server started serving every one else.Making me late picking my little boy up and then late for me going to work ! And no tea what a disappointment shall not be going back ever!!

Hollowgate's been a great chippy all my life. The food rarely hangs around long before it's snapped up, so it's always hot and fresh, and the sit down option is good too.

Lovely fish and chips whether you get a take away or sit in! Lovely area with river and independent shops! Good value and good menu!

Thought we'd have a visit as we were travelling through Holmfirth Sunday night, and not been in for something like 15 years or so.Can say this was very good. Great fish and chips, mushy peas and gravy.Large servings too.Back soon for sure, certainly well within the next 15 years!

Been here a few times and had a takeaway but today decided to sit inside in the warm.We we're approached by a nice smiley friendly lady as we entered the Hollowgate who made us feel really welcome. The order was taken within minutes and a nice warm cup of tea arrived in double quick time and very welcome it was to. The fish and chips and a couple of slices of bread came within 12 minutes of the lady taking the order and food was delicious and tasty and all for £5.25 each what great value! The quality of the are always the same so well done Hollogate fisheries.When we drive to Holmfirth we always try and visit this establishment oh and it's a 26 mile drive from our apartment but well worth the drive. Do give this place a try you will not be disappointedFriendly helpful staff and nice food what more could you ask for?

We were looking forward to some delicious Yorkshire fish and chips. But they let down Yorkshire's reputation. Slimy batter, dry tough haddock (which must have been hanging around for ages)and greasy unappetising chips.Stale bread. Strangely a bit of salad on the plate.The cup of tea was OK but the teapot poured badly as did the milk jug. They cannot possibly be trying to please their customers. What a disappointment! I hope they are reading their reviews and plan to improve.......

I'm from Huddersfield but live on toothed side of the border. It's nigh on impossible to get proper fish and chips here. Hence we regularly pack the kids in the car and head to Holmfirth. We drive right past the big name chippy, it serves more generic fish and chips, West Yorkshire has its own style and looking at some of the other reviews it's obvious they're not everyone's bag. Whatever. I like them just like this, scrag end chips and well cooked fish in crunchy batter. The eat in service is 'quaint' but that's part of the appeal.

Not on my return list for fish & chips, overcooked fish with the tail end rock hard along with the batter and I left a third of the chips as they were scrag ends and more like crisps.Sorry this place is taking advantage of tourists, poor quality and overpriced.

I've only ever had take-a-ways from HG, not having eaten in perhaps it's better value? Personally, I've never been impressed with this establishment, having called in only with visitors who insist on it. I personally find it disappointing and - very expensive!

My husband called one teatime at the takeaway for fish, chips and mushy peas but they were an expensive waste of money! The food was cold and the fish had obviously been kept warm for ages in the 'heat' cupboard because it was grey and soggy! Most unappetising. We threw most of it away. Definitely won't be going there again!

Do not go there just got pie and chips disgusting had to throw chips away mushy peas stewed how can they not see what they are serving up here on holiday with me mum they have got to get there act together

just a quick trip to Holmfirth with children, food was cold, staff uninterested, not something I will do again in a hurry.

A traditional small town fish & chips restaurant/takeaway.This is the place the famous trio visited after returning from 'making a splash in Wales'.If you know what to expect. You won't be disappointed. When I visit Holmfirth, I usually goto Sid's cafe and here.Fish and chips and coffee are fine. As are the prices. No complaints.

First nite in Holmfirth just grabbed some fish and chips for tea on way past to the digs but really surprised as we are in the middle of the country they really were some of the best fish and chips I've ever had me and the wife both had haddock and it was really nice fish also never seen fish cakes that big anywhere else I had to ask what they were I thought they were frying burgers in the bun

Walked down from Nora Batty's Cottage and got 2 pensioners' cod and chips - and onion rings. Great dinner - and more than we could finish. Our second time in 2 years, and definitely not our last.

Been a few times due to the location and always disappointed. The service is usually slow, sometimes very slow, it's expensive and I'm not sure what they do with the chips to make sure they stick together like they do, possibly under cooked or fat not hot enough? Used to be a nice chippy, best off avoided imo unless there's no alternative.

Centre of Holmfirth but very expensive. Portion size is on the small side as well. A fish butty from here costs more than fish, chips and curry from mother local shops.

Fast food. No way. Appalling service. After having waited 5 mins my order was taken and then I had to listen to the female chastising 'Richard ' to cook the chips and he was obviously wanting to wind down as there was only 10 mins before they shut. But you still have customers. My mistake of timing. Anyway what resulted was a debacle of service, listening to the staff arguing whilst all I wanted was fish and chips. After 15 minutes I asked for my money back which happened but no apology. Hey owners get a grip cos you lost another customer.Travel up the road to compos Great fish and chips and a much better experience.

we caught this chippy five mins before they where closing on a bank holiday monday...asked for 2 large cod an chips...was told that they would have to cook the fish did we mind waiting....we said no that was fine...and ho my was it worth the wait...about 10 mins...the best fish an chips iv had in years....friendly service and reasnably priced they came in a box with a plastic fork...would highly reccomend....

I've only had the chips from here. They're nice enough, nothing fantastic, but OK, a reasonable size portion at a fair price. Friendly service.

The problem here is that one visit you get fabulous fish and chips and the next visit dreadful fish and chips. I don't think it's just down to supply of fish even though when the fish is bad it is really bad I think it's also who is frying as sometimes the chips are delicious golden brown and other times they are pale and undercooked.I don't think we will go again as the difference between good and bad is too great, the only saving grace is that it is open when many local chip shops are closed but when it's bad they literally have to go in the bin, such a shame as ideal location and good opening times.

Not greasey full of flavour large portions served in a quaint little cafe in the side of the take away shop. Served quickly with a good selection of drinks. A.ways busy as it's very popular with the locals. Definitely worth trying if you ever visit holmfirth as I highly recommend

Just purchased fishcake and chips for lunch, I ordered 'fishcake and chips' which should have been £3.00, but was only given £1.70 change, it seems I was charged for a large portion automatically even though it was not by any means large. Chips were overcooked and I suspect old, few chips and far too many scrappy hard bits. The fishcake was definitely old cooked - the batter was tough and leathery, sadly the inside wasn't, there was gunky uncooked batter in the fishcake and the sliced potato was hard and uncooked to the bite. Still, the amount of grease in the meal meant it kept my fire burning well for ages.... AVOID THIS PLACE

Chips were ok, curry sauce was fine, batter on fis was soggy, fish was firm but bland. Friendly service though.

Really looking forward to our monthly treat, so we thought we'd go local, all the tourists can't be wrong? The fish was over cooked and totally tasteless, the chips were greasy and dripping, there were no peas so we opted for their curry sauce, that was totally disgusting, it should have been sold as curry paste, I could have cut it into slices! I definitely won't be returning and would strongly recommend an alternative..

Friday night Fish n Chips, very disappointed, chips and fish so greasy, not nice. The place was very clean and the staff friendly though.

In Holmfirth at lunchtime this place fit the bill. Sit down meal for 4 pensioners was good value for money and quite acceptable food. Not gourmet but what do you expect. Worth a punt!

This chip shop is always full but for the life of me I don't understand why. We have been here a few times over the years and after each visit we say 'Never again!' Well, after tonight's visit to sample their over cooked, tasteless fish and hard, bullety chips, I really mean it. Unless you are really hungry, I'd advise you to look elsewhere.

But it was only about 8.30 pm. I noticed a pile of chips in the range and some fish cakes but really I wanted a fish teacake. Out of luck. So I bought the entire (range) contents of the chip shop for £1.50 or 30 bob. I said I'd eat what was left and save them throwing them out. So I ate an enormous pile of chips and a fishcake. My wife, joining me later, ate some of the chips. I had to throw some out - not in the RIver Holme BTW - but in my own bin.Nice chips even if a bit care worn. Same for the fishcake. My message is - eat more fish and chips - and then when I fancy some, Hollowgate Fisheries will be open, not about to close its doors.

called for chips on our day out. Clean chippy, friendly staff, and a good restaurant. Set in the lovely town of Holmfirth, where last of the summer wine was made.Close to sids cafe, the summer wine shop and nora and compos cottages. Plenty to see after sampling the food, eat indoors in comfort and have a drink at the same time. will be going again.
