International Chippy in Rochdale

The way this food is packed has to violate some food standards regulations. Referring to council for action.

Chip prices gone well high. If you use cheap value patatoes then try to keep prices down

The food is always superb! Samosas, pakoras, roast chicken, chicken and chips, fish and chips. Everything is good

Quality food (especially chicken&Chips)and economical price. I have been coming here since 2007, loved this place

Terrible place with overpriced food and underwhelming quality. Food is always finished half of the time, and the customer service is extremely poor. I was faced with ignorance and hostility when asking about an item on the food menu, which they had suddenly ‘ran out’ off, even though it was in front of my face behind the counter!!!

Sorry to say this I need to love international chippy, but recently in the past couple of years they have lost touch of quality I went there the other day got six lots chicken and chips And the food was out. We all got food poisoning seriously every time we go in The guy who’s making chicken and chips is sad and miserable there’s no atmosphere and I think they have lost touch. They made Back in the days when they were busy and they were famous for their chicken and chips and now they just Old people who giving everybody food poisoning. Just set up and just go home

Went in there few days ago got some somosas and a bag of chips Got a tiny portion of chips , guy touching the somosas with his hands after touching hands everywhere , no hygiene what so ever had a liquid taste to it Food poisoned after a hour of having the food I will never go to that stinky place again

Best Donner and samosa with tamarind sauce is out of this world

Huddersfield dude...the tastiest samosas i have had in all my life ...home made donner meat is the best i have had ...anybody who trys this food will go bk trust me !!!

Visited International chippy yesterday travelled from Bolton as recommended by friend. We had the Chips special was a very nice and modest meal with authentic flavours. Good spot for anyone looking for a humble authentic chippy as same owners for over 30 years. Menu is limited but if it’s not broken why fix it mentality.

Standard famous chicken and chips..Cant go wrong.

If I could rate it no stars I would I bought fish and chips from here the fish was absolutely smelly and overdated and smelt so bad and tasted awful didn’t even bother having any of it went back to the takeaway and I was treated like crap by a elderly man with a white beard and was told to take the food and have it still and I didn’t even get my refund please avoid this place as they have no respect for the customers at all I definitely wouldn’t go back here if u don’t wana be disrespected than avoid this place

Just usual chippy shop known by all was driving up north so had to make a de tour to this place

Its in a bad place very very scruffy the only good thing is the somases

I've known this place for a while even though not gone there too often in that time. Used to be reasonably good. But it's been on a slide for sometimes. Quality of food is poor and general hygiene standards leave much to be desired. A sense of bleakness confronts you as you enter the place, a feeling that those working there are kept in the place/behind the counter against their will! Atmosphere and customer service had always been their major liability, but it's now got to an entirely different level of poor standard. Not sure why you would pay to be a part of such a place. Whilst it's stood still to go backwards all these years, other places around it have moved forward with more innovative catering ideas. It's not a welcoming place that values the customer who may have travelled a long way to visit them. Anyone can make lots of money selling all sorts of stuff, but quality is hard to cultivate. Eveyone to their own, but I won't be going there again so not recommending it.

One of the oldest chippy but the same taste must try it

Disgusting place and staff especially the guy with glasses.! Places like these are cheap and nasty just like themselves, -rank amateurs.! I was in a rush to get just two samosas n he purposely doing other stuff to take the mick, eventually I walked out! Will not go there again.!

Travelled from Bradford and met my pal Sohrab from Todmorden here to get the famous chicken and chips. Just like last time the food was amazing, love the home made sauces and their pokoras were mega. This is a real old school chippy serving old school grub.

The chips, well worth the drive, proper chips, salted, vinegar, service with a smile, the sauce, one if them was not to taste, but the made things fresh, service with a smile, just the rude regulars spoilt it, but looking forward to dropping by again.

The manager is always moody, looks aggressive, and angry.

MUST TRY Their chicken and chips are out of this world. I always visit when up north and always take some for the family back in London. Highly recommended, very nice people as well

This was a 4 star but has gone down to 3.6 as of late. Good simple chippy. Service is OK. My go to are. Chicken and chips with chutney. (Imli) Donner kebab and chips or pitta. (May not ba available late afternoon) and samosas. Gone down due to price and sometimes chips are hard and service can be lacking Still one to visit.

As always. Amazing top quality food and great service thank you

Food poisoned last couple of week. So please everyone,check your food before setting off. They serve rats. Well done, and full of flavour

Always a pleasure to eat from this establishment. Family run chippy.

Friendly people serving some nice food , nothing over the top , nice and easy . Id go again , very tasty and prices are great . See you soon .

Nice and tasty chips with miele chutney

Got the Chicken n chips was 8/10 the chicken was abit too thick for my liking but the sauces 10/10. The guy that was making the chips very friendly and the guy at the till that was putting the chicken and sauces on the food was not very friendly at all abit like a robot like he didn't want to be there! The shop itself needs updating and it does not have a card machine!!! Also no Seating area in the shop so it has to be takeout.

SAMOSA HARDLY HAVE ANY KEEMA ALL POTATO ALSO ON CHIPS NOT MUCH IMLI SAUCE. NOT THE SAME AS USED TO BE AND THE PRICE OF £4.20 IS A JOKE.

Been going here for chicken and chips for years...

I heard good things about the chicken and chips but never lived up to the hype! Could've been an off day but my honest opinion has to prevail here. The chips were hollow and crunchy and had a bad smell to them, the chicken was too hard and had no taste to it. The salad certainly didn't seem fresh and samosas were overloaded with potatoes and hardly any meat. We were offered some Donner meat which quite frankly made me feel sick. The uncle behind the counter didn't even acknowledge us for at least 5 minutes after which we shouted across our order politely of course. Disappointed to say the least and although I'll give em another try to see if it's any better I'm not gonna hold my breath!!

Over priced food. Not even taste nice

Chicken and chips are banging, great for a quick snack.

Food is made fresh and of a high standard. Chicken and chips is the best thing on the menu.

Very nice chicken kebab at this place with tasty, in-house made chilli sauce 😊

There is a reason why I don’t eat junk food and this is it: the food is soooooo goooooooood! I mean you can’t stop! This place is an actual Institution in Rochdale! Going for the first time: chicken and chips/ chips and chutney. Fancy changin things up go for the samosa and chips. Sometimes I go in just for Imilee chutney (tamarind) omg! I am not lying when I say this sauce makes everything -and I mean everything-, better. You could eat it on broccoli and it would taste amazing. Their samosas are ok too- I’ve recently seen a bit of a price hike! Not so cool but if you craving a fast food hit then this is it. The biggest downfall I would say is the wait time. You be in a line with 1 uncle infront of you and he is ordering for like 20 people. I do not lie! Or in the case of the evenings it gets super busy Ok one last thing- they need a card machine! It is not cool when you are scrabbling around in your car looking for change! I would go everyday if they took card payments

Awful, chicken was old and rotten never again

Always order my fried and frozen samoseh from here. Been coming here for years for their samosahs

Excellent chip shop with fantastic food great customer service.

Excellent fish and chips shop excellent food and customer service.

They dont serve fresh Donna. They keep old Donna & Chicken under counter & when your not looking They will serve that. Been food poisoned twice Rats in Kitchen also. A deli beli place to go, absolutely disgusting 🫣

Best chicken and chips around Imli is the best Samosas are in world of their own You can not go wrong

Samosas are banger, the taste is popping

Absolutely appalling wid they pace they work at . Have about 10 people working to do one single order at a time!

It's not so good as it used to be

Brought 4 samosas were disgusting asked for fresh ones the guy starts fighting with me only buy from here if u want an upset stomach

Cheeky stuck up little manngy I told him take his food back for being funny i should have thrown the food in his face

The chicken chips chutney n salad mix is definitely something you should try out if you going to this chippy! Clean inside and wait time not usually too long once ordered you they get on with the order!

Wasn't in that long but it was nice

First and last. Heard its good… Ordered chips gravy with cheese pie and this is what I got. Literally 7pieces of chips.

I used to be regular here in the 1990s, but since moving to Norwich i haven't been able to visit, i still crave the samosas, packed with lamb, potato and peas, absolutely brilliant, in 23 years I've never found a samosa or donna kebab to match the superb taste and quality that this place serves. To the owner, Please tell me if the Samosas are made with same recipe, i will be visiting Manchester at the end of February and would love to come to your shop and enjoy those excellent samosas again.

Best donner kebab in pitta bread home made

The hardest chicken and chips. Everything from here is made with love.

Tasty curry from any chip shop, been there years same owner

Best place for chips n chutney, avoid busy times as parking nearby is a nightmare

The guys are moody and they never smile there is one guy that doesn't even talk even when you say hello food is amazing just don't forget to ask for napkins they are stingy with them never give you one

I’ve been going here since I was a kid and it’s the best chippy ever. The Samosas are soo good and the Chips and Chutney are their signature. I will never stop going here! Amazing food all the time!!

The best samosas in Rochdale. I always pop in for some samosas and share them with my friends when I get back to Shaw.

Prices keep going up year on year, but the recipe is still the same decades later :)

Nice chicken and chips. Samosa pastry is way too thick.

Been going for a long time and the chicken chips it really good

Chicken and chips with imli sauce is on a different level. Love this place

Awesome service and good food. I’m from Bradford a customer of yours. Keep up the good work. The donner the best 👌

Delicious food. I would recommend the home made donner meat and chicken and chips with plenty of emliy source

I've heard alot about this place, so we tried it today and I really enjoyed the chips and their special sauce We had their special chicken and chips with salad, the chicken was in special sauce, the chicken was in small pieces Do try this place It has other special food

We've been coming here for years, a family favourite. Great tasting food especially the chips, samosas, tandoori chicken and doner. Would highly recommend.

Been going here since I was a kid really good chicken and chips noone can beat them. Keep it up guys. Highly recommended

I'm basing this review off my frequent visits here back in the 90's, affectionately known as Harveys. Chip muffin for 50p, an extra 5p if you wanted it to be 'special.' Chips & chutney was the star of the show at 90p. It was a staple in your diet if you were Asian and from Rochdale. I've long moved away from the area but one day I'll be back for a taste of my misspent youth :)

Not impressed and one of the younger members of staff was pretty rude

Donner on pitta, chicken and chips and the samosas always on point.

Went after long time use to be good now think the foods gone down hill

Food is good, not been in for years. My mistake had a wonderful kebab

Been going for years, donner is a one off we even order at work on Friday hats of Phil

Since being introduced to this place many moons back ... literally can't fault it, Always busy but you do get the same service all the time

Found a grey hair in my food which was really annoying 🤦🏻

Chips always good .food just thr same

Fantastic food and chips to rival anywhere.

Great tasting food and good prices. Been coming here for years. Very friendly and always served in good time

Poor service, the chap who served me was rude. Really bad artifice, if I hadn’t paid I would have left. Food was also poor quality… greasy, bland and cold

BEST TAKEAWAY IN THE AREA.... THE SAMOSA ARE NEXT LEVEL, GREAT STAFF, NICE CLEAN SHOP, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 👍

Not even worth a star. I went for fresh fish and chips and got stale fish (at least a day old) rock hard with the greasiest of batter. Not the first time either that I've given them a chance to redeem themselves. Never again !!!

Good place, family has been going since it opened, but pricing and quality is poor.

10/10 reminds me of my childhood. Used to go every weekend

Been going here for years eventhough ive moved to bham, cant fault the food, but i can fault them for not picking up the phone.. i had to do something up north an when i was on my way back i tried phoning them again and again repeatedly for about 15-20 mins so they can get my order ready for when im there because they themselves said phone your order through if you are going to be some time and this time they didnt bother picking up.. so got there after 20 min only to find there was a big Que there an i thought to myself i am not standing half an hour there not with my bad feet..if they would have picked up the phone wouldnt of had to stand there so i didnt bother with them..about 4 month before this i was there order food an ordered a few seperate chicken legs when i got back to my hotel they wa stone cold, basically they hadnt even bothered to microwave them an make them hot, this place loosing its good reputation and fast, the uncles who are also brothers who ran it before never missed a beat always on top of their game, these new generation are the ones who are going to mess this chippy up and run it to the ground..mark my words. Very dissapointed.

Rude workers using foul language to us customers and also need a lesson on hygiene as they don't keep the place clean samosas and other foods made hours before as I ordered a samosa they are rock hard and cold wouldn't recommend this place

Decent food. Reasonable prices on the whole (considering it the only chippy in Rochdale town centre) just bossman that does kebabs etc isn't exactly friendly here and looks at you like you've murdered his family.

I loved the chicken and chips here, especially the sauce and salads. It really adds some spice. The chicken is juicy and tastes amazing and the chips are just perfect and taste really good.

Always nice food provided and also friendly customer service. 👍🏽

This place is very good for take out food specialist for fish

Always have good quality food .

Rochdales very own International Chippy, Amazing service and Amazing food. This is by far the best chippy, Chicken and Chips is my favourite. 7*.

Roast chicken with that chilli sauce is renowned throughout Manchester

Good food, nice chicken and chips but have to queue for ages and always no Donner left over all would recommend.

Chips & chutney is lovely, also samosas

Brilliant food and service. Chicken,chips and chitney to die for

Terrible, called in here with 3 friends while we were working close by, all of us threw our stuff in the bin, pies were luke warm and soggy after being warmed up in a microwave, chips were hard and undercooked, will not be returning.

Internationals has been around for a while and I’ve visited every now and then. Tried the donner and chips, asked for some salad and sauce and was absolutely drenched and overdone, food did not look appealing at all. However, it tasted better than it looks donner was done well. Chips were tasty and done very well, not all of it was drenched by sauce so a decent balance. Overall decent experience not sure if I’m going to be back anytime soon though.

Food is okay, service is very slow.

Best chippy in rochdale. Been hitting it since 1992

NOT COVID SAFE neither staff nor customers wear mask. At least 10 people waiting for food. Ridiculous
