Mr Chips in Torridge

Not so impressed as chips were soggy and the fish was tasteless. Such a shame as used to enjoy them. Definitely a huge improvement. Fish is lovely, batter crisp and light, chips good and good size portions. We eat in the restaurant regularly and enjoy a hot plate of fish and chips. Brill. Had a meal tonight, brilliant, chips were great and the batter and fish scrummy.

Really lovely stop off to meet up with family before driving onto our destination. Will definitely be back to discover more about the area!

The grilled cod is wonderful with very nice chips. In fact all their food is good. No atmosphere and poor service, but a great place for a quick fish dinner

Can't beat sitting in for fish and chips!

Food was very good. Service was excellent waitress very efficient and pleasant.

Brilliant fish and chips everyone!

Disappointing, chips undercooked and was ok, used to be a lot better

Mr Chips has downhill in recent years, I suppose that is what comes of having no competition nearby. Got some cod and chips from here. Food was edible, but not piping hot. I had to ask for salt and vinegar on my meal and even then, there was very little put on my meal even after asking the server to not skimp on said condiments. All in all compared to a few years ago, the service here is poor and slow and the food is passable.

Chips can sometimes be excellent. At other times they can be quite soggy. I wish there were more vegetarian options outside of the halloumi and vegetarian burger. Staff are always polite.

Stunning food. Lovely friendly staff.

Amazing fish and chips. Best ive ever had. Not usually a chippy person because coventry serves rubbish fish an chips. But if I lived here I'd get fish every day. Thank you. Service was excellent too.

Lovely little Fish & Chip place, you can either take away or eat in! We got a free sausage for our little Yorkie Tilly when we were there! We will definitely be coming back, thank you so much!

Been coming here on visits for over ten years. Always a must have stop. Last visit was not up to the usual high standards. Chips cold and not cooked through. I assume a one off and will still visit next trip.

Ordered online and collected, the shop was very busy but my order was ready , drove back to our holiday cottage about 5 miles away still popping hot also reasonable prices and portions , went again later in the week as travelling home next day for sausage chips and onion rings for two total £14.40. 10/10 from me .

After coming here last year, we were looking forward to our fish & chips tonight. We were not disappointed....Best chip shop ever. The prices are so reasonable, a lot cheaper than anywhere at home. The cod is lovely, tasty & white with beautiful crispy batter. The chips are also gorgeous. It's a bit of a wait because it's so busy....but well worth the wait. Be having more next week before going home.

The place looked full and there were people in front of us but the speed of service (and eating!) meant that a table was very quickly available. The relatively healthy option of grilled haddock was available, much to my delight and the offer to top up chips if you needed more was both generous and unnecessary. Full marks for delivering great quality, value and service.

Worst portion of chips to date, taste like they've been sat there all day. Threw out for the birds. Quality of food has deteriorated over the last 2 years. Won't be wasting my money again.

Waited for 30 minutes just to be told they don’t do gluten free. Rude staff.

Best fish n chips I've had lovely crispy batter fish is excellent would eat anywhere else

We visited this restaurant twice whilst in Bideford last week as we had previously been many times before. We weren’t disappointed! The meal was wonderful, the fish was delicious coated in very fine batter and the chips were cooked to perfection. The restaurant was a credit to the staff, it was spotless and the service was very prompt and professional! Well done team, we will definitely be back!

It was a very chilly and extremely wet day. We were on a flying visit to Bideford and desperate for a quick hot lunch. We were greeted and seated straight away. The service was excellent and the food was hot and tasty. We ordered the light bite meals which were still a generous portion.

Good food served in a clean restaurant by very polite, pleasant and friendly staff.

Food excellent and service wonderful. Thanks

Great place to eat in for a family treat with kids.

Awesome fish and chips and curry sauce. Quick service seeing it was quite busy. Certainly recommend.

Classic no nonsense fish and chips. Fair price. Has gone up alot as everything else has but still alot cheaper than some other places. Large cod and chips and a bag of scampy feeds a family of 4 with some beans from a tin at home.

For what it is, it's very good. Cooked promptly, friendly staff and a nice setting to eat. Only way to improve would be table and chairs, but there is enough space to sit and eat on the quayside.

Delicious. Will most definitely return.

Nice and light batter on the cod. Good chips. Great service.

We dined in the restaurant one evening and the food and service were very good. Huge portions! The cod was amazing! The batter was so light. We all enjoyed our food.

I went there with my family and waited to be served and they ignored us. They were just standing and having a conversation instead of doing they job!!

que was mad long but so worth the wait food was great

This chip shop is great for a supper with friends. The fish was fresh and tasted it l particularly liked the batter it was crispy and tasty. The chips were good. The portion size was good l am glad l was hungry. The service and staff were prompt with very little waiting and the staff were nice we gave them a good tip they deserved it. They served a nice wine as well. There wasn’t a large cost to our meal and it was value for money.

Great fresh food amazing staff and a nice dining area. A must if you around this area.

Fabulous fish and chips. Lovely seating area . We visited twice while in the area. Lovely staff .

One of the best fish&chips restaurant in which I have eaten. The food was excellent and the staff friendly and efficient.

Our favorite place for lunch when we are coming from Cornwall where we live going onto destination in north Cornwall or Devon...service great even a sausage for our JR terrier Ted...food is cooked perfect love the place we will back soon

Rude take it or leave it approach! Avoid unless you like paying to be abused!

every time i go there for a cheeseburger they cant be bothered to cook it, they always say sorry we have just cleaned up. as i am a local all they want to do is simple food for the holiday makers

Such amazing quality food. We're here on holiday and have been using the click and collect service online, super easy to use. The food is delicious 😋

Always went to Mr Chips for years. Recently lots of new staff , service very slow . The staff are very blunt not friendly anymore. Also on computer they don't know what orders have been dealt with or not ! Sorry to say but gone down hill .

Very poor sizes for the prices. Bit of a rip off but only one in Bideford at the moment

Thank you so much for reserving our table for my dads birthday service was excellent and the food was amazing will definitely come back it was worth the long drive there 😀

Excellent value for money good location

Lovely fresh food and well organised service. The best Cod around! Delicious! They even have a Restaurant attached so you can eat in overlooking the River and Quay if you want to.

Ordered half chicken and chips and they brought out a half sparrow and a few chips. Doesn't justify £9

really good food with massive portions, can get a bit busy at peak times but a great place to takeaway or eat in, would definitely reccomend 👍

This was a special treat! Absolutely beautiful food... with great service! Dog friendly. Highly recommend x

Fish and chips pretty good and price not to bad either

Fantastic Fish and Chips, very fresh, batter light and crispy, excellent price for what you get. Highly recommend.

Fantastic Fish and Chips, very fresh, batter light and crispy, excellent price for what you get. Highly recommend. Definitely worth a visit.

Superb meal in dog friendly fish n chips restaurant! Had the special, which was large cod (battered or grilled (which I had)), served with choice of peas or curry sauce and a drink (latte for me). The friendly staff even brought a sausage for my dog. Pleasant decor in seating area.

Delicious cod and chips, and reasonably priced. Only real negative was the pot of curry sauce was on the small side

Bones in the fish so only 3 stars.

The food was good but we went in to order takeout and even though there was only one person waiting for their order the young girls didn’t even look at us. After 5 minutes I said “are you going to take our order?” And one of them finally said “can I help?” It was weird

Good value fish and chips, ate in the restaurant area. Friendly service. Not all choices on menu available but the classics were on the menu.

Due to its popularity there were no free tables when we went. Advised to return after 30 minutes. Went back and we were not disappointed. Great cod and chips, meaty and fresh. Will definitely revisit.

Good customer service and lovely fish and chips. Good value for money. Plus great location.

Great place to eat. The batter is superb. There is little difference in the price of eating in compared to takeaway

I really enjoyed my meal of breaded plaice, chips and mushy peas with a pot of tea. The staff were friendly and the service was excellent. Clean and comfortable seating area. Loved it, thank you.

Superb!! Immaculately clean. Quite possibly the best fish and chips we’ve ever had! The lady serving in the sit down area was really friendly and cheerful. Made a fuss of our dog too, who even got his own sausage. Thank you.

Ate in the restaurant and had the Cod special, nice portion size crispy batter and the best tasting cod I've had in a long time.

Best fish and chips in Bideford, takeaway or eat in ,in a small dinning room on the side, fish was boneless and skinless in a lovely crispy batter.

Food very very hot. Good chips. Batter let the side down abit not buy mutch though

Dog friendly, we visited with friends on a rainy Wednesday night. The food was delicious. We all had haddock and chips. The ladies had grilled haddock because they didn't want batter. We will be back again soon. Mustn't forget the doggies. Ghot a free sausage. Thank yyou all.

Fish and chips restaurant, the usual menu with some less usual options, including vegan, all done well. Friendly helpful staff.

went to mister chips today and ordered jumbo battered sausage and chips x2. yes the service was quick but all in all if they had taken 20 more seconds then maybe my order would have been correct instead of receiving 2 normal sausages and chips that had no salt and vinegar, please take more care and read your orders because somehow the receipt is correct and the cashier himself did the whole order :)

Prime location but food and service are of a poor quality. Over cooked fish and missing items from order. We have visited Mr Chips before, the standard of food has slipped.

Top quality food. Portion size was generous but not big and overwhelming. Not greasy. Thin, crispy batter.

What a fabulous restaurant/fish shop! We visited the restaurant side with our 4 year old son whilst on holiday in the area. The place is spotlessly clean. The food was delicious and great value for money! And the lady who served us was so friendly - she gave our son a colouring sheet and colours whilst he ate he's food. He was also able to have child sized cutlery and a plastic cup to drink his water. I'd highly recommend this fish shop!

Simple large or small portions. Fish not weighed then priced, so thats good. Got there Sunday 25 mins before they close, was the last fry. Portions were a good size and everything tasted great. A lot better than others within 20 miles especially as it was so close to closing time.

What a disgrace. I ordered by the internet as staying 20 mins drive away from Bideford. When I got back to our holiday cottage there was no cod in the bag. When I phoned up I was greeted with the manager telling everyone that he’d 100% included the fish and that somehow I had turned the box upside down and the fish had fallen out. However, on reading other reviews maybe I’ve been saved from a dodgy meal.

went for fish and chips to eat on harbour. Only after ordering and waiting did they say they had no salt! Fish and chips with no salt is extremely bland. Fish didnt have much taste. There is a big morrisons 5 minutes drive away and smaller shops within walking distance, all still open. They could have sent someone out to get it from. Reason why only 2 stars as obviously dont care about the foot trade.

This is a great little chip shop lots of variety on food and drink from burgers to fish and coke to whisky that's right they sell booze. It is worth a visit we went into the restaurant area and the lady serving was friendly and chatty which is nice. I had the Mr chip special and a battered sausage my wife had the fish platter with chips both meals were amazing quality and portions. Worth a visit if in the area they do offer takeaway aswell :)

Lo Ely food and very good prices

I’m a local so I always had Mr Chips growing up and has only failed to impress a few times it’s constantly great and if you click and collect you get your food quickly. However the staff kind of ruin the atmosphere most of them are very helpful and friendly but some of them look like they just escaped from HMP Dartmoor. But it’s all part of the Bideford experience. If you’re visiting I recommend highly.

Great! Hot, fresh, tasty and quick friendly service. Even at busy times.

Very good food and the service. Love the place. Excellent 👌

Great fish and chips and my friend had a vegan burger she said it was very good The staff are friendly and the restaurant is very clean enjoyed our food very much and will be back thanks guys

Great place, very attentive staff, lovely food, and accommodated a large group of us at short notice on a Friday night, highly recommend if you want a good fish and chip supper.

Always great food and generous portions. They're usually busy so you normally have to wait, or you can preorder online to reduce your waiting time

Tasty food and good value. Friendly staff and dog friendly in the restaurant. You always get a friendly service. Alaska knows her way to the café as she is always made welcome.

Had to wait ages ,but was nice when we got it

Everytime we visit bideford we go there for fish and chip absolutely stunning

Great food that tastes amazing. I have only been the once. Service is down 1 just because my order was incorrect and wasn't till I got back to work I noticed.

Click and collect normally works but not tonight (31/1/24) waiting for our order the girl noticed food order wasn't right. So with chips on the top keeping warm, I waited for it to be rectified. Got my order and left. As I got home (just over a mile away) a call to say part of my order was at chippy still. Drove back collected it with a half an apology. So by the time I got home food was virtually cold so didn't enjoy it alot. Now it was a new girl doing the order as I didn't recognise her...but no one else said anything to her to help her as she was flustered. No double checking to make sure she didn't mess up. Nothing. Mr Chips you normally have great staff with that comes great food. Not tonight. Big let down £25's worth.

Really like the food but the service and time you have to wait is terrible, but while you're waiting to be served and waiting again for your food at least you can listen to the staff gossip and discuss "going pub later",

I wish I could leave a more positive review, in the food and service but when they refuse to cook certain foods after certain times it doesn’t suggest good service. Very disappointing

We got a surprise in our takeaway bag...a sausage for my dog. Thanks very much it brightened up our day. See you again

Went in for chicken and chips and there was no chicken.

Cod was smelling very fishy which was first concern while eating it. Batter was soggy. Chips were good so was curry sauce. I'm now ill. It wasn't busy at all so no excuses

It's gone down hill sad to say, my haddock was warm not hot, and chips wear small and bitty very disappointing

Had Mr Chips for years but won’t be anymore. Genuinely the worst piece of fish any of us have ever had. Tasteless, greasy and the batter soggy on all 3 large cod’s. Chips and sausages really greasy. Mushy peas also really cold. Really really poor that their standard of food has dropped so much.

Excellent food great value for money

I have used this chippy for years. The fish and chips are usually really good if not the absolute tastiest you'll find in the area. Popped in tonight at 8:20pm after a long drive home only to find that despite being open until 8:30pm they could only offer some pre-packed chips or a sausage as they were clearly already closed as far as cooking anything was concerned. Surely if you are open until 8:30 you are open? A fish and chip shop unable to serve fish and chips would seem to be failing in its very premise? Very disappointed and hungry I shall in future make more use of the great options in Appledore and Westward Ho! instead.

My mum & myself have fish & chips every Friday, its usually OK, but last Fri was awful . Luke warm chips & i literally had to pour the oil out of the tray ...terrible...

Great, busy, efficient, tasty food. 😊

Lovely cod and chips, ate every last crumb. Speedy service . Yummy x

These guys serve up great fish and chips. Well worth a visit.

Slow to order, wait ages after ordering too. Over priced in comparison to other chip shops.
