Ordered a cod supper, and with the length of wait, I presumed it was being cooked fresh to order. When I got home and opened the food the chips were hot but clearly reheated although thankfully there were few crispy ends of potato. The cod however was as thin as could possibly be cut and was held together with batter that was obviously reheated several times so that the batter was crispy to burnt and the fish was dried out. My expectation of moist flaking cod in frest golden batter remains as a figment of my imagination and dreams. Won't be back.

Really delicious as usual. All elements were excellent including fish, chips, onion rings, tartare sauce and spicy pink pastie. A special mention for the chicken salad because the salad was so nicely prepared and because healthy options don’t usually taste so good.

Food tonight was excellent. It was delivered piping hot despite me making the mistake of ordering right in the middle of the dinner rush consequently it did take almost an hour to be delivered. The wrong drink was sent but the delivery guy went to the local shop to buy the right one since it was quicker than him going back to the chippy to swap it for the right one. To summarise, another lovely meal from John Dory's Dundonald.

Over 2 hours waiting on delivery. Changed delivery time several times. They seem to prioritise orders from their own app over the just eat orders. Food was ok but very greasy and just warm when it arrived. The shop is literally 5 mins drive from my home so wouldn't recommend. No excuse for the delivery time delays.

Not sure why I keep giving this place a chance. By far the worst John Dory's around. I think I have had maybe 2 orders that were completely correct (out of both pickup and delivery orders.) The rest have had missing drinks, missing dips, salt&vinegar instructions ignored, sauces spilled all over the order on arrival if delivered, etc. Some staff also have poor customer service skills, make you feel like an inconvenience for even being there...Seriously feels like at least half the staff don't want to be there or just plain don't care

Order was delivered early and was hot. Unfortunately that's were the praise ends for this meal. Last time the batter was thin and crispy, there must have been a different cook tonight because the batter on the fish was quite thick. I ended up cutting the fish out of it. I had also ordered scampi and again the batter was very thick. Cutting into a piece it looked more like large prawns than scampi. All in all tonight's meal wasn't up to the usual standard. It won't put me off ordering from Dory's but I think I'll leave it for a few months.

Some of the nicest chips I’ve had in a long time, crispy without being burnt, really good. The fish was really lovely but I have 1 complaint - it wasn’t big enough!

Went into this place and was left standing at the counter for 10 mins, no one around, could smell cigarette smoke coming from the back (staff perfectly entitled to have a smoke break, no problem with that!) Then 4 appeared from the back of the kitchen! Were all of them out smoking at the same time leaving shop empty 🤷‍♂️?? The main reason I’m writing this review is due to the pure ignorance of the lad who tended to me at the till, a tall thin chap with tight black hair, not a word of apology for leaving a customer standing, attitude was dire when taking the order and just vey curt and dismissive, he seemed a very unhappy individual altogether, I felt as though I had really interrupted his day. I can’t fault the food but my god the young lad needs training in customer service.

Disappointing. Chips seemed overdone or perhaps reheated - far too hard. This was around 5.30pm so peak time and would expect them to be fresh. Onion rings inedible - used a layer too close to the outer skin of the onion so the rings were tough and couldn't bite through them.

Most of the staff didn't speak English or seem to know what they were doing, which is probably why the whole experience was a disaster. All the customers were sitting about waiting 30mins+ for their food including some angry customers in carpark. We ended up getting a refund as we weren't filled with confidence - went elsewhere.
