Update your opening hours twice I've taken dinner break at work and you've been shut leaving me with nothing to eat. Should say online if you are closed. What a joke!

Food rubbish, told by proprietor that I'd have to pay extra for card payment, very poor fish, very soggy and boney at least the chips were proper potatoes and not frozen ones. Defo won't be visiting again.

This is now called the Istanbul takeaway. It serves fish and chips, pizza, kebabs etc. We were visiting Melrose and asked a local to recommend a takeaway and we were sent here. Cooked fresh to order, this was the best fish supper I had eaten in a long time. Delicious!

2 fish suppers last night. Alarm bells should’ve rang as the fish was very smelly in the car on route home. Both hubby and son suffered dodgy stomachs after consumption. I phoned them to make them aware that the fish they were using was obviously not fresh, purely to avoid anyone else getting ill but all they said was...it’s fresh. Won’t be back......

I waited over 2 hours for my order. I didn’t even get the right juice with my order and not once did the restaurant ask me if I wanted a substitute as they would of found out I don’t like what they offered! They gave the driver a Fanta juice and not a coke juice, I asked for a chicken wrap with chilli sauce and specifically asked for the salad to be cabbage, tomato & cucumber knowing I can’t have onions. I did specify that there should be NO onions at all on the wrap but when received onion was clearly visible! I had to open the whole wrap up and take it all out! The kebab I had with the order had burnt chicken inside and my partner couldn’t eat it. I placed order approx 6.30pm and I didn’t receive my food until 9pm !! After all the good orders I’ve had from these I am really disappointed in this one!

Ordered at 6.45, given delivery time of 7.35 only to get text around 7,00 to say (surprise, surprise), yet again meal was being delayed. Finally arrived after 8.00. That's the last three times, I've ordered, been given a delivery time only for them to change after accepting payment. They take your money knowing that their delivery times are bull, Just Eat should sanction establishments that cheat their customers and constantly break their contracted agreements

I personally won't be back, one of the king ribs we got still had raw batter and was cold in the middle as it hadn't cooked properly. If we hadn't drove away before we started to eat it I would have took it back. The service its self was chaotic, as one poor girl was trying her hardest to sort all the delivery orders and shop ones while a guy ran in chaos about her. As we were waiting they said it would be a while since they would cook one fresh, but in there hurry to complete orders they didnt check that it was cooked thoroughly. The chips seemed ok, but left your mouth and hands coated in a film of grease. I'd not recommend this place, if I could award no stars I would have.

Food was disgusting and cold, ordered a chippy pizza, and was instead given a burnt tomato base with a sprinkle of cheese and a handful of undercooked chips, with overly vinegary brown sauce. All that could be tasted was cold tomato puree, majorly disappointed. Second order was a chicken bacon and cheese wrap which is certainly not worth the price for the amount of money you charge! Tasted okay, far too much tin foil wrapping, looks rather big but once open it's not worth the price.

By far the WORST meal ive ordered from any takeaway ...if I could click no stars I would!!! Was very DISGUSTED with the way one staff member spoke to me when I called to make a complaint regarding the delivery time ( which was 2 hours 20 mins btw) and the fact that the fries portion was ridiculously small for the price and were extremely soggy and my daughter's kids meal looked as though the chips had been refried 3 times and left to sit for hours ... seriously!! They were dark brown and were also soggy and tasted foul. but most of all I was more shocked at the way the staff handled the complaint. The woman was extremely rude and spoke to me as if I was a 5year old child on the phone. She interrupted me while explaing why I was disappointed and began to raise her voice telling me that she wasn't listening to my cheek. Which I can assure you was no wear near cheek... then told me not to order from there again and hung up. I think this is totally shocking considering this is meant to be a takeaway business and should to be able to hear where there going wrong based on customer reviews to try make it better .. I'll also be advising my family and friends to not be wasting their money or time ordering from this rude staffed takeaway again

Called in for fish and chips on a Friday evening. I don't like spicy curry sauce so asked if I could try it first . The member of staff bought a pot and I asked for a spoon , he told me to just use my finger 🤢 I didn't like it so chose something else instead, he popped the lid back on the pot so someone else may have got that. The visit didn't get any better as the fish and batter was disgusting, it was really rubbery, not crisp and bubbly as you expect good batter to be. In fact it was inedible, the chips were ok but tbh I was put off by the hygiene of the curry and awful texture of the fish. Wouldn't recommend or visit again

We thought this was a normal coffee-snacks type place. But inside we ordered coffee for £2.00 and I had an Oasis at £1.95. We were very thirsty having walked around the abbey in hot sunshine. The coffee was absolutey undrinkable, so after one sip my wife left it. My Oasis was fine cause it was premade in a factory and therefore un-ruinable. though if they had had their chance....

It’s such a shame that this ‘chippy’ is let down by their appalling ability to deliver. Either offer a delivery service, or don’t. Don’t offer a delivery service, tell me you will deliver at x time, and then turn up at x plus at least an hour! Don’t tell me your driver is sick, quit, crashed his car - different excuse every week. Be honest! I hate being lied to. Food is fine, not the best, but not the worst. Reliability is the major issue!

After a grand total of 3 hours of waiting the delivery turned up cold ( originally the pizza which never turned up in the first place) and no chips or juice. Avoid this place it's a shambles.

I visited with my husband on a Tuesday evening. We had a meat feast pizza 12" and a spiced mixed kebab. We decided to eat in. The dishes were amazing quality and value. The pizza was really tasty and very generously covered with different meats - a treat for a carnivore. The kebab was huge and really delicious. In the end I ate a third of the pizza and then helped out with the kebab, leaving 2 thirds of a pizza to be taken home for a delicious treat tomorrow. Would definitely go there again and would highly recommend for taste, quality and value for money.
