Went in for a takeaway on a Friday night, not busy so can't understand why chips were anaemic, saveloy was stone cold and didn't even pack pie that was ordered, none of this was known until we got home. Definitely won't be going there again

Normally a very good chippy. Went in tonight, staff arguing over the fact that two orders had been sent out to the wrong people, int he argument served our take away. As no chips had been prepared during this argument was sent away with the most meagre portion of chips, three persons chips combined didn’t even amount to a normal one person serving

I found the upstairs seating area really nice and inviting, the staff were really nice as well , polite. I chose the regular sized cod and chips , the portion size was small and the cod was small but nicely cooked , cost of meal was too expensive, prices I feel need to come down as inflation drops I would not return again to eat in ., My personal opinion, i would return for a take away lunch though.

Haven’t had fish and chips in ages so we bought a take away from here last night. The fish was fine; nicely cooked, the batter not too thick and not too greasy. However the chips were insipid and soggy in fact dreadful. My husband had asked the woman serving if we could have some that were either a bit more crispy and a little more cooked. Another woman who was serving interjected and said “there’s only one type, anyway we double cook them” - so no. I’m afraid we binned them. It’s a shame because they’re supposed to serve good fish and CHIPS. I’d buy the fish again but definitely not their chips.

What a joke first time visiting this fish and chip shop to be told ‘ we have no chips ‘ ???? Bad management won’t be trying there again no excuse for running out of chips other than organisation

Well, I'm a world traveller, and I've been spoilt when it comes to great fish and chips! But this said, for a local fish and chip takeaway, it's up there in my top 3, chips are chunky freshly chipped, crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside, just how they should be, unlike some who use the what I'd call " frozen oven chips" The cod was large (not a small piece disguised in heavy batter) and perfectly cooked Price wise, it's very reasonable, most costal locations are now over the £10 - £11 for a mediocre portion, Maltings definitely give you more than your moneys worth Yep, very happy

We made our first visit to the maltings fish restaurant Friday evening 26/04/2024 , and it was so good we went back Saturday evening as well.I have eaten plaice for thirty years, but have never had plaice as good as this, it was perfect on both occasions. The staff are polite, friendly and very helpful. The restaurant is spotless and has a great atmosphere. I would highly recommend the maltings fish restaurant too everyone.

We were favoured with another very nice meal of perfectly cooked best quality Cod and Chips last Wednesday. So pleased Malting Restaurant in Baldock is now back up to the excellent standards that Paul Taylor worked to. Now also the whole shop is improved to a very high standard, with the very good practical layout. The Proprietor has a very clear desire to see his customer's well fed and fully satisfied, his team of assistant's are all very kindly respectful and nice people. A few days later we had take away of Regular Cod and Chips which we enjoyed eating them in our car. They were perfectly cooked highest quality and presented in a most convenient box, so we could eat from it as it sat nicely on our car seat tables. (Update) we continue enjoy. Yesterday when the Proprietor kindly as we were leaving asked "how was your meal" my answere was excellent! Maltings Restaurant is the best, even better now than the very high standard that Paul Taylor worked to, which is to say something.

I usually use Baldock Fish & Chips but they were being refurbished, so I decided to go to The Maltings for convenience. Sadly, I won’t be using them again! I ordered a cod and large chips for myself and my son to share (I based my decision on Baldock Fish & Chips portions) and was VERY DISAPPOINTED when I opened the box to find a ridiculously TINY piece of cod and a portion of chips that would have fed two children………it most definitely wasn’t a large chips!! The service was good and the staff were polite but sadly the food a huge disappointment!!

Really really poor. Price is just insane. OK things are a lot nowadays but £9 for a 'large' cod that I would suspect was, what 6-7oz? Chips were soggy considering they were fresh out. Stop cooking with a timer (kept shouting the seconds left) and use your eyes! Also if you want to save some money, you don't need 5 people standing around on a weekday lunch time! 2 max. Wouldn't return and wouldn't recommend. Especially with the competition 10 doors down!

I remember this Fish & Chip shop when it was called Cliff Taylor's and was the best for miles around. People including me used to drive from Royston to buy their food. Sadly I don't think its anywhere as good as it was in the mid 1970's but thats progress and inflation!!

Third of what will be a regular experience I expect. Photos from the most recent two visits. I usually arrive to take away on the earlier side and during the week mostly around 6pm. Orders are taken promptly and accurately. Potions are of a nice size - not too big. The batter is always crisp and the chips are well cooked with not many small bits. I can also recommend the curry sauce. Service ranges from very quick to good (if they have to cook something for my order it has always arrived quickly and the need for such had been explained while ordering and before payment). Very happy - worth the drive. Free parking nearby always a bonus.

Nice food but portions definitely been dramatically reduced, whilst prices have gone up. Large chips 3.75 and barely enough for two people...I'd hate to see a medium. Why cut down on portions of chips?... they don't cost much to buy at all and previously, a large was too much for two people, so won't be back, as I think other places in Baldock offer better value for money.

Family have been coming here for years. Saw it change hands and go completely down hill. But now it's in new hands, and it's great! Firstly, a lot of fast food joints like this can be quite dirty/sub standard - this place is spotless, and in the 5/10 minutes we waited for our order, we saw hand cleaning numerous times. Staff are all super sweet/polite (if anyone in the comments suggests otherwise, then just respect that may be whoever dealt with you that ONE day was merely having an off day? Or better yet... you're the problem you absolute Karen? Because there's no way in hell any of them are rude you muppets). My dad's pretty fussy, so for him to compliment the fish is enough for me. I had the chicken, which was perfectly cooked. Chips aren't greasy either, they've got them perfect. Price - absolutely reasonable (bordering on cheap). All in all, best fish and chip shop you'll find in the area. Forgot to take photos as I was busy stuffing it down my gullet :)

Ahoy me maties!!!!! 🏴☠️ So a little birdy told me about a chippy that was apparently good enough to rival the homelands offering... queue a 50 odd mile round trip! (Nothing to do with an excuse for a ride 😉 ) On arrival I have to admit I was impressed (first question being do you have Gravy?), lovely gent and ladies working there, and what seemed quite a family friendly establishment. Biker friendly with a fair amount of parking nearby. COVID check in, with more than adequate sanitiser for your (rather warm) reviewer on arrival. Made my order and grabbed a pew outside. Now... Did angels descend from the heavens on eating my food, bracketed by signs of the apocalypse at a Southern establishment being a close second to my usual?! Ermmm, well no actually but I have to admit my stomach went to a very happy place ☺ Chips were lovely, not greasy and just enough to go with the sausage, Gravy and coke. Definitely would recommend a visit as if even the basic stuff I ordered was this good, well, I might pop back to try the other offerings 😄 Definitely worth a visit if you're close by or in the area- for me personally the trip length means it won't be a regular, but like in most movies "I will never forget the time we had" *eye roll I know*

2023. Had our Christmas get together at the Millstream on a busy Saturday evening. The staff were lovely and very attentive. My tart starters was nice, my turkey main course was a tad disappointing. 3 tiny sprouts, one tiny parsnip (I love my veg) was a bit of a joke. The meat itself was OK as were the potatoes. My cheesecake dessert was also ok. All in all a mixed bag, I've eaten here a few times and never had reason to be disappointed. I put it down to being very very busy. Saying that, I would definitely return and give them another go. 2024. Returned to the same venue for our Christmas Dinner. Having read my last year's review absolutely nothing has changed. Yet again 3 miniscule brussels a tiny peace of parsnip and two bits of carrot. WAKE UP! The Millstream. The cheapest element is sometimes the best. I have deleted a star for the quality of food because of the above.

Food was disappointing, hunters chicken was just a pile of mess and not warm dish. There was 9 of us, and not to sounds horrible, but everyone this morning has a bad belly !!! The place is nice, think just for a drink it's spot on, but if you want to eat i would avoid. Spent over £200+ just on food and it was like that. Wish I got photos of it now !
