Little Chippy in South Lakeland

We just arrive for a holiday and this is the first place we went to and we weren’t disappointed Beautiful golden tasty chips and fresh fish! Was so good we are going to try and squeeze another visit before we head home in a few days

I got fish and chips for two yesterday,they were ok except I am surprised they were not served with a magnifying glass,the portions were so small,at £23 a pop I expect more than half a fish!I know stuff is expensive,but this is a rip off,you need to up your game,there are other chip shops in the area,if this happens to me in the future,sorry I am done,I feel like I had been mugged,think on,Windermere is too small a place for this carry on,everyone has to make a living,but not necessarily out of me! Stop the rip off portion sizes!

"Wow! When I said I was looking forward to my favorite fish and chips, that was before I had *this* portion – the best ever! Worth the long journey. Best chippy in Europe!"

We found the little chippy about 4 yrs ago and always visit a couple of times on our yearly trip ( 7 days ) the food is spot on but on this occasion one of our visits was that little bit special my Mum (80 yrs old ) loves the pickled gherkins so I asked the staff what brand they were so I could see if I might be able to purchase some , to my surprise when I visited again the owner ( I think he was anyway ) presented me with a large jar of said gherkins free of charge for my Mum to say she was made up wad an understatement would DEFINITELY recommend this Diamond of a little chippy

Quite honestly THE BEST chippy in the world and we are lucky enough to have it on our doorstep !!! Mark and the staff are always so friendly and so helpful. It’s always nice to have a little chat and a catch up whilst waiting for our tasty chips !! The food is always great quality and super fresh. My favorite is chips & pudding, delicious !!!!!! We would highly recommend and look forward to our chippy teas !! Thank you all.

The fish is lovely, and the chips are amazing definitely tell that they are homemade chips the staff are very friendly and always willing to chat. Best fish chips that I have had for ages

Amazing fish and chips as always can never fault them. The service was excellent and the homemade curry was a very nice touch

The chippy that’s never open when you want it to be, well it was open last night. Ordered four small portions of chips and a small carton of curry sauce. This cost north of £16 so was expecting a fair deal. Undercooked chips mixed with slightly better ones, the four of us had to throw most of them away, and there weren’t many in the first place. Curry sauce was home made, it’s still in the fridge as my kids thought it was weird and it was. I’ll be throwing it out as soon as I remember to do so. Three kids behind the counter completely clueless as to what to do, how to welcome a customer and take an order. The chap in charge was in the back. Maybe some time spent on training for the young ie how to greet and serve plus, how to know when the chips are cooked. We’ll never return, very very disappointing. The little chippie can’t even do the basics so stop wasting time making your own curry sauce. Undercooked and overpriced! Sorry!

Popped in here for a quick takeaway meal and got probably the worst fish and chips I’ve ever had. Fish (see pic) was shocking. Chips were very greasy and had no salt or vinegar on (which was requested). Gravy - I’ve never tasted gravy like that before and tasted of nothing. Sausage was half the size of a regular small sausage and we found a long hair in the fish cake. Meals went in the bin. Staff were unfriendly, abrupt and not welcoming at all and they only took cash - unusual in 2024! Honestly save yourself and your stomach and go to vinegar jones in bowness - no idea how there are good reviews here. Date

Excellent food, good choice on menu, large portions. Definitely recommend. We will be back if in the area again, visited while staying in Bowness.

We fancied a fish and chip takeaway to bring back to our Airbnb after a day of walking / exploring. This fish and chips completely hit the spot - light battered fish and lovely chips. Would definitely recommend.

We visited this chippy as we were in windermere, firstly its a nightmare to park if you are in the car. The look of the chippy is good and the menu is really plentiful from fish n chips to battered black pudding and pickled eggs, we got a regular tray of chips, 1 tub of peas,1 tub of curry and 1 small sausage which came to around £8 which is reasonable. Now the bit that ensured i will not return “THE STAFF” i walked in an stood at the counter and they had 4 staff members serving/cooking not one of them looked at me and not one of them gave a smile the entire 10 minutes i was in there, i was watching how they were with customers and from several that got served not once was there a smile, thank you enjoy your meal etc. The dark haired lady taking the money was ridiculously miserable and no smiles, hellos,enjoy your meal etc. it takes nothing to be nice especially when you are a business and you have customers spending hard earned cash in your business. The food 7/10 the staff 0/10.

Best Chippy a must to try out when you are In Windermere. Fish is so tasty. Gravy & Mushy Peas delicious . Staff very friendly :)

Absolutely Delicious!! Both the fish and the chips, the mushy peas and curry sauce were spot on. Great value for money with good size portions .We are from York and our chippy is hard to beat but this Little chippy was right up there .We will definitely be back.

Great fish and chips. Highly recommend if in Windermere Friendly owner and staff. Fresh cooked. Great batter and fantastic chips.

Fantastic fish and chips, real value for money, spotlessly clean and friendly staff. Good sized menu including a kids choice.

Was fresh food cooked to order, tasty, friendly staff! Would definitely recommend. It’s cash only and good for them for sticking to it!

i went here for the first time with a friend i didn't fancy fish and chips but my friend did and then i saw the menu, probably the best i have seen in a chippy! i got deep fried haggis, spam fritters, deep fried chillis with soft cheese filling and the obligatory pickled egg. the food was so good that i'm going back for more in a bit lol

Great fish and chips, perfectly done, and very friendly staff! good value for money too, I would definitely go again when in the area!

I really don’t have a problem with the food, but it’s hard to know when they are open,their site says they are open and when you turn up they are closed,this has happened to me on three separate occasions now,it would be better to drive to Staveley chippy instead ,at least they are consistent,all they are doing is wasting my time and everybody else’s,you need to get your act together and update the times you are closed.

Comfort food at its best with warm and friendly staff. Moist, tender haddock in a supremely tasty generous batter. The best around by a country mile (and it is literally a country mile). This is how fish ‘n chips should be!!!

Perfect Fish n Chips what more could you want?! Really well cooked Haddock with a great crunchy batter and perfectly cooked chips (even after a short walk home) Friendly service and a great takeaway Highly recommended (The long line of people waiting said it all)

Got sausage and chips plus chicken pie and chips - very nice. Portion size generous, decent value, and staff pleasant. If I'm being picky the pastry was a bit heavy but loads of filling, and peas lovely. Warning to us north easteners: seems very few chippys up this way including this one, serve cod, it's mostly haddock. This one only takes cash, but plenty cashpoints handy to the shop which is in a little side street off the main drag. Happy to recommend

The fish and chips were awful along with the fishcake being burn. I couldn't eat it. A total waste of £18 . I wouldn't go again

The cottage we stayed in had some menus for this chippy and I had taken a look and wanted to try it. I ordered fish, chips, mushy peas, curry sauce and a battered haggis. The portions are definitely generous and I couldn't finish my battered haggis or half of the chips!! It was a shame because they tasted amazing. The fish was cooked perfectly and it was a lot better than I expected. My wife ordered pie, chips and gravy. Unfortunately, they forgot the gravy, but she shared my curry sauce and said it one of the nicest curry sauces that she had tasted. The only strange thing was that it was cash only. I haven't had to use cash for months!!

Filled a hole.!!! Really though need to be more generous with portion sizes and get into the 21st century by taking card payments.

After reading marvellous reviews online, I was really looking forward to this visit. However it was a HUGE disappointment- chips were lukewarm with a greasy after taste and the fish seemed to be reheated as it was cold in the centre and had a tough, dry texture. It was simply inedible, I would not recommend this place to anyone, especially when it has first opened for the evening (4.15pm on Saturday). This is an unbiased and honest review.

Excellent fish and chips for take away. Good potions. Check opening times, Amidst the shops in Windermere town.

Lovely food, fresh fish, great choice & a quick and friendly service. Only thing is its cash only.

Food delicious had to take away. Busy little place staff very nice for there about 5 started to get busy well worth the wait

Gorgeous little side street chippy .. food lovely and fresh … staff are so friendly .. do not leave Windermere without trying this chippy 🥰

Myself and my husband have visited Windermere a few times now and always walked past it but decided to try it today and I'm glad we did! Hands down the best fish and chips I've had in Windermere! Massive portion, fish was melt in the...

The Best Chippy in town.good and freshly made two order I will be back a lot. Every Friday Lunchtime.till Exmas .And after that till Next .one.

Fish, chips and curry with zero flavour and excessively greasy. Possibly the worst we’ve ever had. Really disappointing

Very good haddock and chips would highly recommend Although busy you don’t need to wait to long and service good well done

This fish and chip shop is very popular as is very good. Take away only and open from 4-00-8-00 it was well worth queueing for as they were excellent.

Being a southerner I'm not used to Haddock, just mainly Cod. In this chippy you have a choice of Haddock and Chips or Chips and Haddock. The fish was so fresh and both the Haddock and chips were very tasty and hot. The best fish...

A first class experience. Fish & Chips were amazing. Fish cooked lovely and crispy batter but soft succulent fish. A generous portion of perfectly cooked chips with no grease in sight. Chatty pleasant staff and quick service. I would highly recommend and I’m just disappointed...

Avoid at all costs ! We visited this chip shop during a recent holiday. My husband purchased chips and 2 sausages for £7.20. Thankfully he checked the order before leaving the chip shop only to find the box contained a handful of chips. He spoke...

This is a great chippy. In fact probably the best fish and chips we’ve had in a long time. Fish is cooked fresh to order the batter was was light and not greasy. Will definitely be back.

Decent chippy, we had fish & chips and battered sausage & chips, fish & batter and chips were really tasty, battered sausage was fine, not outstanding but grand! All in all, pretty good!

Chips and mushy peas all reasonably good but portion of fish was small and mostly batter. Expensive for what it was. Wouldn't go again. Cash only seems archaic

Picture it - a rainy evening in Windemere, and we did not want to go out, so we decided to try the Little Chippy. From the time I arrived until I left with food for four was about five minutes, and all of it was...

We visited the chip shop Thursday night service was amazing and staff were greatnand very friendly best fish and chips I ever had definitely be back again when we visit Windermere

A good helping of chips and good & nice fish .will come back every Friday two get my dinner.if not mid day in evening befor shop is shut .and then I will not be a happy Bunny.

Nice fresh haddock fish & chips meal. Excellent portion and very tasty. Thanks Maxine for a nice meal and tourist advice :).

Have used Little Chippy for years, it used to be excellent. Tonight the chips were great, hence the two stars but the mushy peas were watery though good flavour but the fish was terrible. Very small amount of fish but loads of hard, tasteless batter....

Ordered fish and chips for the whole family, didn’t have to wait long for the food which was cook freshly. As for the staff they were very pleasant and welcoming. Oh and the fish and chips were delicious. Enough said.

A very good portion of fish and chips .I come hear every Friday. Their is no better place then this good service and frenley staff.

Quick and friendly service. Two large pieces of piping hot, fresh juicy haddock with crispy batter and excellent not fatty chips. Good value.

Hubby called round on a Friday, not too long to wait. 3 fish lots and sausage n chips with gravy good quality food

Thank you for top quality fish & chips! Cooked to perfection, fresh & hot. Very welcoming on a cold and rainy evening!

Steak and kidney pie and chips twice with a polish sausage. The lady taking the money got it right....the packer gave us one cold pie and chips and a polish sausage so no dinner for me then.....not blooming impressed at all. Thank goodness for microwaves...

Ordered from Little Chippy for the first time today, very pleased with quality of food and service. Two pieces of Haddock, regular chips and curry sauce all very fresh and delicious, nice crispy batter on fish which is cooked from fresh. Polished off our well...

Ordered 3 haddock, chips, beans and mushy peas and 1 chicken breast and chips for a group of 4 Meals nicely presented in individual boxes Fish was acceptable but we all found the chips not so tasty and threw away about half from each portion...

Had fish supper last night, just delicious, better than pub grub far cheaper as well and excellent service.

Very pleased with the quality of food. Prompt service. Price as expected. Well organised for Covid as well.

We always go to this chippy when we visit in august, great food and owner really friendly too has a chat!! Nicer than ones at the bottom and easier to park nearby Lisa , stephen, steffi newcastle.

Very good chippy. Had it all there. So good. Would recommend this to anyone. Chips are so good. Very happy this is here

All the usual menu items but also spam fritters and home made chicken/mushroom pie. The pie was not what I have come to expect from a chippy. Any chicken and mushroom could not be identified as the filling was mashed, and had suet mixed in....

Food freshly cooked while you wait superb others should take a leaf from there book all customers waitin saidbest fish and chip shop for miles and how true.

Excellent fish and chips, very friendly and helpful staff. Reasonably priced. Been here a few times now and we are never disappointed. We would strongly recommend!

Called in for Homemade Cheese and Onion Pie with chips, peas and gravy, my Wife had this without the peas, no gravy on mine and no salt and vinegar as we asked for, you have to wait outside until order is ready, mine was dried...

Firstly very miserable girl serving, secondly very expensive chippy, thirdly very average food with the fish more batter than actual fish! Good thing for this establishment is the lack of competition so it’s always busy.

Had fish chips peas and curry, thoroughly enjoyed it. Although did find curry to fruity for our taste.

Friendly staff, absolutely delicious food. The batter light and crispy, fish fresh and tasty. Chips not greasy, generous portion and no plastic wrapping

Fish not very tasty, did ask for salt and vinegar on my fish and chips but they clearly forgot to put some on. Fish very greasy and chips were okay. Mushy peas were nice but the curry sauce was just colour.

Being Scottish we have very high standards in fried food 😂 great fish, flaky and light, batter was crisp and fluffy in all the right places and fried freshly rather than out the warmer. Would definitely go back.

Had fish , chips and mushy peas for our dinner one night and we enjoyed it, very close to were we were staying Nice change from visiting restaurants

The best service and the best Haddock and chips we have ever tasted. Would recommend to anyone. They were freshly cooked and the fish was fantastic. When we return to the Lake district we will definitely go back to the Little Chippy.

Cooked fresh to order. The fish, haddock, was perfection, with translucent flesh and a light crisp batter. Chips were tasty and nicely prepared. All piping hot and very generous portions. Friendly staff. One of the best chippies I’ve ever had the pleasure to visit!

First trip tonight. Great little chippy and good food. Would recommend! Gravy particularly nice. Very clean place.

Lovely fish, chips, peas and curry sauce. Fish super fresh, batter really tasty. Only one tip for the future, to switch to wooden forks, better for the environment.

In windermere for work and got my tea from The Little Chippy, really friendly staff and my Haddock and chips where are amazing, topped off with a tub of curry sauce that was delicious, really reasonably priced too!!! Can't wait to visit again with my Family when we cane visit Windermere

Live in Windermere best in the country. Bets all others around here.will be coming back week after.if all is well thanks. I

very efficient ordering and waiting during these times. The food was spectacular - gravy was indeed homemade (think and tasty) whilst the batter was very crisp. Just beware of the serving sizes of the battered black pudding/haggis as they are huge!

Very good Fish and Chips. Expensive but tasty! Haddock tasted fresh and the chips were good. Not greasy at all

We’re from a part of Scotland where there are lots of award winning chippy’s and the tastiest in the country but this was definitely one of best we’ve had. Chips are excellent as was the fish. Portions very generous and short wait time.

La comida aquí era deliciosa, pero me molestó que no hubiera carteles pidiendo que se usaran cubiertas para la cara y una pareja que salía no las usaba ni había personal. No hay distanciamiento social en el lugar ni desinfectante de manos disponible.Tenga en cuenta que también es solo en efectivo; no se aceptan tarjetas, lo cual es muy inusual durante esta época de pandemia.

¡Definitivamente el mejor pescado y patatas fritas que he probado en un tiempo! ¡Cocido fresco, nada grasoso y lleno de sabor! Las gambas eran increíbles y la tarta de pollo y champiñones era ligera y deliciosa. No puedo calificarlo lo suficiente y tiene un gran valor. Propietarios amables muy acogedores también! ¡Perfecto para un día lluvioso como hoy!

Desde que vi esto en línea, ¡estaba esperando para probarlo! ¡Definitivamente valió la pena!Porciones generosas de patatas fritas, ¡buena relación calidad-precio! ¡Satisfecho mis antojos de patatas fritas de la tienda de pescado y patatas fritas! !Solo un punto menor: tienes que pagar más por las salsas, que son 20 p por paquete, ¡pero son más grandes que tu tamaño promedio!

Very tasty fish and chips with excellent sized portions. Well worth finding this little chippy that is tucked away

Creo que todavía estoy en estado de shock por el precio de este lugar. Llegó un sábado frío y lluvioso a principios de septiembre a la hora del té. Chips de salchicha y salsa ordenados. Y patatas fritas y salsa de curry. Porciones decentes. Tubería caliente que fue excelente. El servicio fue muy rápido pero 10. 40?. Esperaría pagar alrededor de 7 a 8 como máximo. 5 para patatas fritas y salsa con salchicha y algunas libras para unas patatas fritas con guisantes y salsa. Ah, y una punta boscosa de basura para usar como tenedor tampoco fue útil. Realmente no tengo idea de dónde sacan 10. 40 desde. Si no estuviera tan presionado por el tiempo, me habría ido a otro lado. A mi socio tampoco le gustó que las bandejas fueran de poliestireno (honestamente no recuerdo) ¿podría haber sido de papel? Y una bolsa de plastico.

Nice chips and not greasy. Curry sauce a big disappointment- not traditional chip style curry sauce. Fish was also a bit on the thin side- more batter than fish.

La cola en la puerta indicaba la popularidad del pescado y patatas fritas de aquí.Tenga en cuenta que solo aceptan pagos en efectivo, aunque no quiere llegar al frente de la cola y luego debe encontrar un cajero automático y comenzar de nuevo.El pescado y las patatas fritas eran muy sabrosos y los guisantes blandos eran como deberían ser: ¡pegatinas de costillas!La única razón por la que mis 4 estrellas no son 5 es que el pez parecía ser de muy buen tamaño. Una vez que tomaste en cuenta la cantidad de masa, no era realmente un buen tamaño. Ahora me gusta la masa, pero no quiero que sea toda masa y nada de pescado.

Lovely chippy tea in the rain! Good fish, chips were great, and loved the curry sauce. Also battered black pudding was a nice side! Kids portions massive probably big enough for an adult!

Beautiful clean shop, great fish and chips, good value for money and friendly service. Would definitely recommend

Tip Top Chippy located in the middle of Windermere, a stones throw from Crescent Road, served the most delicious fish n chips!! Spam fitters out this world too! Highly recommend if strolling past or if everywhere else is full!!

My two children went here for a quick dinner one evening. They enjoyed the sausage and chips. They were served quickly, even with social distancing in place and the food was still hot when they arrived back at our accommodation with it.nb. When we visited the chip shop was taking cash only, which was no problem for us, but worth noting!

Great chippy! Great food and great staff! Don’t be disheartened by the length of the queue, they are there for a reason and the staff soon dispatch them with smiles on their faces! Home made pies, superb chips... enjoyed my chippy tea and I will return!

Lovely fish and chips would totally recommend, great and friendly service too! Haddock is top notch!!

We arrived at our holiday cottage on Beech street and the the the queue was out the door and still was two hours later so we thought that we must give this place a try and we weren’t disappointed! The chips where nice and chunky with a bit of colour and the fish was huge with a beautiful golden batter. Great portion size too. The only down point is that they take cash only and no card, but there is a cash machine 2 seconds around the corner.

friendly staff, had the polish sausage, and husband had the chicken burger with chips, lovely food, give it a try.

What a Fab Chip Shop in the Centre of Windermere.Great Service with a Smile,Everything Freshly Cooked and lovely Big Portions.Can’t wait to go there and treat myself and the family.You won’t be Disappointed

Staying near here self catering so decided to go here for a night off cooking. Very popular and queues as food cooked to order. Very fresh fish and nice chips. Large portions. I ordered a child fish and chips for myself and couldn’t finish it!
