Marios Fish Bar Congleton in Cheshire East

I’m a customer at Mario’s the food is always spot on and they always have a smile on there face

If you can't get the chips right, you may as well give up.

Usually fabulous fish and chips but today had chicken , twice cooked and almost too tough to eat , will stick to fish in future .

Good quality food, well priced and well-served. Having moved to the area 2 years ago, Mario's has been our go-to Chippy/Kebabery ever since. The staff are always friendly and pleasant, the shop itself is always very clean and well presented even during busy times, the quality of the food is great and the prices aren't crazy either. Consistency is clearly something they take very seriously at Mario's as it doesn't seem to matter what time of day we have visited or how much food we've bought, it's always been to the same high standard. I understand that everywhere gets negative reviews sometimes and honestly if I thought they deserved one, it's exactly what they would get, but I really have nothing bad or critical to say about Mario's.

Vera and the team are really friendly and produce great tasting food, whether it’s cooked to order fish and chips, a burger or a gyros for the more adventurous, there is something on the menu for everyone. Good offers available on the specials menu and kids menu. As a regular here for several years, it’s lovely to be recognised and greeted by name with the staff remembering conversations we’ve previously had. I wouldn’t go anywhere else in Congleton.

How bad can a chip shop with a 4.4 rating be so awful? Go in on a Friday tea time. Plenty of staff 1 cooking, 1 taking a telephone order, 1 serving and 2 watching like outcasts at a wedding. So after getting a portion of fish and chips wrapped nicely and handed over with a smile i returned home to partake of my chippy tea, well that's what I was expecting. Firstly the fish was tiny almost as though it was from the smaller value meal but i was charged £7.50ish for this meal. Just take a look at the attached picture, the fish had an odd taste to it aswell and the chips were mainly little scragg ends. Yes you know it'll be a long time before I go back for a second round

Very friendly owners and staff and amazing service.

Friendly team, fast service and best fish and chips in the area.

Enjoy everything I eat from here and also have the pleasure of working here Good Times Friendly service

They need to take note who comes in I was stood in what I thought was a que feeling really anxious thinking I wernt getting served no because everyone at the other end was. must be invisible oh well guess I'll be driving past In the future DISGUSTING

Fantastic chips and fish was amazing. Lovely staff. Definitely will be coming back

Great portions. Very nice fish and chips.

Lovely food and huge portions! Ordered a few meals to take back to work for staff lunch and we had no complaints. Food was made quickly and the ladies behind the counter were lovely. Will definitely have again.

Popped in after dropping my wife at the airport. Place (no pun intended) was very busy and I can see why. Great food, great service and great value. I had a kebab and my son had a burger. Both were delicious. You have a new customer!

It's OK for fish n chips, but I got warm up chips, and the fish was greasey

Just got to say what an amazing chippy this is.. The food was excellent and the staff were really happy and friendly

We use Mario's regularly, good fish and chips, decent portions and efficient service. Sure, you may get 'better' at the coast, but no complaints with this being my local!

The only chippy in Congleton i go to. Friendly, helpful staff. Portions are massive for lunchtime at work, just want to sleep after.

The best chippy in town! I have been a customer of Mario's Fish Bar for over 4 years. The food is very tasty! The kebabs are my favourite, oh so yummy... Chips are homemade and not frozen like other places. Overall is very good value for money! Service is excellent and very quick. Always a busy place, so yeah, they are doing something right! The staff is very polite and will always serve with a smile! So lucky to have it in the area!

Been going here nearly 3 years now, the food is generally good although sometimes the chips are a bit under done. You certainly get good portions for your money. The thing that lets it down is the service, the women serving can either be very friendly or downright rude, I’ve unfortunately experienced and witnessed both. Also had comments made about me being late for my click and collect when I was only a few mins behind, but had to stand for over 5 mins while the only person serving chinwagged with an extremely indecisive customer. Just completely unprofessional, but unfortunately it’s my local. Has to be said, Hightown Fish and Chip shop has just as good food but better customer service.

Amazing quality of food, large portions and fast service. Highly recommended

A very big thank you to Mario's Chippy,I ordered a large amount of chips for a garden party for 60 people,kept the chips in foodwarmers,they were lovely and hot.I ordered over the phone,Mario's were very helpful and even provided a bottle of vinegar and some salt,thank you once again.

I've given a 5* review on a portion of chips I purchased as it was my first visit to this place. Very impressed with the shop as very clean & seemed organised and the chips were lovely as not greasy & a good portion for £2.40 Will have to return & try other items on the menu.

Very expensive Sausage chips gravy £5 Won't be going there again

You know, if you like chips you'll probably like it... I found the chips were always below the standard of other chips in the area, however i put that down to personal preference, they're still very nice, the staff aren't rude, they get you done quick, they still operate covid safe, which is great!

Nice chips and very pleasant staff and the place looked a very clean looking chip shop. There’s car parking outside of the chip shop which is always nice. I forgot to take a photo 😂 but it was good food and average pricing. I will be calling in the next time I’m in the area and need refuelling!

Mediocre chips at best and ridiculous online system. Avoid if possible and certainly don't order online

Amazing shop, lovely staff and excellent food.

Really good chippy, not the cheapest but you definitely won't be hungry after a meal from here

Friendly staff. Fresh tasty food and huge portions.

Great fish and chip..... friendly staff, great queuing system. Fantastic size of fresh fish..... good selection of alternatives.... will use again.

Best chippy in congelton Fact !

Great food and reasonably priced

Lovely fish n chips, good service you park outside with no restrictions

Too good, lovely fish and chips and expected prices. Plenty of other things to try.

This place takes phone orders which save you waiting because when it's busy it's busy! The chips are good old fashioned chippy chips and the rest of the food is above average for a chippy. The staff are polite and friendly. A great place 😊

Fish is gorgeous too many chips

I love there fritters for a change or I have delicious 😋 fish and chips the portions are large very good value.

I always enjoy popping into Mario’s in Congleton. I can’t get enough of their food and friendly service. Love the vegetable spring rolls with chips, very affordable and in a very reasonable sized portion – highly recommended

Great value for money and not waiting for long

Nice food and not.long to wait half a chicken and chips is a favourite for my grandma

Big portions, friendly staff. Good value.

Beautiful small sausage chips and gravy very tasty

Great staff great food and service

Drove to Mario's in Holmes Chapel every Saturday for over three years when finding really good fish & chips was near impossible. That same excellent quality is now reflected in their Congleton branch and as with all Mario's staff, customer service is both friendly and outstanding. Their prices are also great - Mr Michael!

Great to see them open again 😀 always fantastic food, service with a smile 😊 and gorgeous staff 😉

Beautiful fish n chips cant be beaten

Always fab food and service staff really friendly

What can I say service fantastic food fantastic best chippy I have had in the area fantastic.

From where me and my friends are camped it was a little far out, but the food was lush.. well worth driving back too the camp site and devouring! And a bonus it was still nicely warm 👍

Great fresh and tasty, will certainly visit again.

Very good fish and chips and excellent service. Beware, the portions are huge!

Great fish & chips, clean place, fresh food & have friendly staff

What a great find. Without a doubt the best fish and chips I have had for years. Like Arnie say's I'll be back 😉

Freshly cooked, generous portions, friendly staff, great value.

Great chippy, always decent food and great value for money

Fantastic. Quality everytime. Highly recommend.

Good food at a good price, plus 10 out of 10 for service.

I was going to put a photo on but ended up eating it before I could!

Why advertise that they do haddock and not actually do it. False advertising, but nice big portions of chips

Always good food at reasonable prices.

Amazing fish and chips, I've ate in a while.

Really good! Fish was excellent and the chips were perfect ☺

Wonderful food and very pleasant staff

Value for money and all staff are very friendly

Lovely fish 🐠 and chips 🍟 very clean and tidy

Not as good as my last visit. A bit greasy. Chips need shaking for longer. Still vg however.

Kebabs spot on loads of chips n burgers to die for

10/10 The Mini Fish Special is awesome and the staff are always friendly.

Great fish and chips, big portions

The very best chippy in congleton

Best chippy in town! Best taste, biggest portion and a wide variety of options.

An excellent business with professional owner. The food is consistently cooked to perfection & I travel from Sandbach just to eat here as I’m yet to find another fish bar which compares. Well done!

Just moved to Congleton and fancied a chippy tea after a day of unpacking boxes...absolutely fantastic chips and a nice crispy batter on the fish and sausage...plus very friendly staff. Glad this is my new local!

Best fish and chips sexy ladies best customer service

My 10 year old was allowed to this chip shop with her friends tonight and was in the queue for her tea. Me being a worried parent called in to get the rest of the family some tea but it meant I could check on her and make sure she was ok. I was 2 spaces behind her in the queue. She placed her order with 2 friends. The woman that served her was impatient, intolerant and damn right rude. The girls were taking a few seconds to get the right money together and I observed her ( the server) huffing and puffing under her breath and rolling her eyes. When the girls were asked for salt and vinegar one of the girls got a bit mixed up and only wanted salt so she took a second to give the server the answer. To which the server snapped " stop I am doing this one now". There was no friendliness or care given to these children and let's face it they were paying customers like the rest of us. Interestingly when she realised I was with the girls as i came forward to help them, her mood significantly changed and she became smiley and chatty. I realise when there is a queue they need to move customers on quickly, but these were just kids trying to be independent! Have some patience. And on a final note, the chips were horrible and stuck together. Rubbish service and not great food. Disappointing .

Great food always good portions

Great selection of food reasonable priced friendly staff

Amazing staff, best fish and chips

Really helpful staff great food

Actually now called Mario’s. West Heath Chippy has less opening hours than a nun after a quick one but Mario’s is open pretty much every day, dinner time and teatime. The food is great and the prices very reasonable. They do burgers, kebabs etc as well as normal chippy stuff. Highly recommended.

Great chippy , portions are big and super service

Run by a dishonest man what a mess he left lol in a Bosley takes the money then starts again. And how to con your money

Really nice food here and great portion sizes!!

Omg the best fish & chips ever and great customer service
