As fast as I'm concerned this has been the best Chippy in Forfar by far for a long time. Never been let down by the quality of the food from there. If you've never tried them before, do yourself a favour and you'll see what I mean.

Well known for best chippy in Forfar , we only visit on odd occasion when visiting relatives in the area . Usual very busy around 5pm when we went in we thought that’s strange, why only 2 people in the shop . Hung around for pre ordered food , then noticed they’re using bought in chips in a big plastic bag . They used to cook fresh cut chips . We got our food handed over with out a smile I might add . Got home to eat it & it’s basically oven cooked chips !! You used to get offered a lemon on the fish if you order that . Not any more gone right down hill . We won’t be back 😳

Terrible experience, not worth the fuel and the wait. Tiny portions, when i took the box out the bag i thought is was empty, tiny small single fish (£7.00 !) broke of about a third in batter, no fish inside ! the piece i was left with was about the length of my fork, looked like just a large fish finger. Fish fillets are cut down, you dont get a whole fillet. I would doubt if a trawler could legally land such a small fish ! from trawler to chip shop..........something fishy going on. The fish supper i bought (£10.00) was a bit larger with a handful of chips. Portions are tiny and not worth the money, better value elsewhere. Way, way, way over priced.

I have to say... It's a real shame that I'm giving them three stars, after all, the staff are absolutely fantastic and the place is spotless - however, having ordered a chicken fillet supper, and hearing about supposedly large portions, I was greatly disappointed. The chicken fillets are about two finger widths wide and ring finger length. The chips were fantastic and the fish was absolutely lovely, however I was dearly disappointed having received something more reminiscent of chicken nuggets than proper fillets, as well as a meager amount of chips.

Ordered white pudding supper and chicken supper by phone for collection.I saw the menu on their website and the cost was £12 -80. When we collected our order they asked us for £14-40 not wanting to make a fuss in the shop we went home and checked our prices on their website it was as we thought £12-80.We then phone and were told to go back to shop to sort it out only to be told the prices have gone up. We said we had checked the website and it was £12-80 they then said the website was wrong and it was going to cost £100 to have it altered. So for god sake ask on the phone when placing an order for the price as they definitely won’t tell you.Disgusted

Everything is freshly cooked to order which is great. It's just the traditional fish and chip shop fare which is good as it makes the menu easier to navigate. If you want a kebab or pizza or whatever go elsewhere. A special mention should go to their white pudding. In recent years, in East Lothian where I now live, the white puddings are just not great. North Street Chip Shop has the traditional squishy, moist ones with great batter. I've been getting chips here for at least 42 years. I love it. However, they've lost one star as the fish batter could be improved. Sorry.

Long waits, unfriendly staff, smallest portions ever (chips are surely the cheapest things to make, yet they barely give you any!), greasy and horrible fish. The only thing I enjoy is the tartare sauce. Have tried this place many times as I used to live very near it, so purely out of convenience but always regretted it! Avoid and go to Arbroath for some decent fish and chips.

Have been going here for a while and even during the full lock-down in Spring time. The quality varies a lot and recently, it has been getting worse but last night was borderline inedible. The fish itself was no way fresh and was chewy, never mind the batter, the white and black pudding where mushy and just horrible. The chips while never the best in this fish bar, were worse than usual. All together, it was probably the worse fish and chip meal I have had and my son who was as hungry last night as I was said the same. This place needs some serious quality control unless the owner just relies on the local folk not caring but given the price that is charged any reasonable/sensible person would expect much, much better quality. It is a pity to say this, but I will not be going back to this fish bar in a hurry, if at all. I can make my own, with very fresh fish and lovely chips so I will stick to that.

We stayed in Forfar for a week last year and again this year and visited the chip shop on 2 occasions each time. The fish suppers were excellent - large portions (the last time we bought them, each had 1.5 fish in them!), well cooked - crispy batter - and plenty of chips. We could not have asked for better. They were very hot - we carried them from the shop to our holiday apartment (about 3 mins walk away) and they were still piping hot when we opened them. Telephone orders only at present, but always ready at time you are told. Will definitely be back again when we next visit Forfar!

I ordered a haddock fish supper from North Street Fish and Chips and to say I was disappointed was putting it mildly. The piece of fish was the smallest piece of fish I have ever seen. How they can justify charging £7.50 for this is disgusting. First time I have ever been and definitely the last. Very poor value for money and certainly nothing like the picture.

Visited here whilst in the area briefly, I wished I hadn't bothered! I ordered 3 small bags of chips at £1.50 each and a medium bag at £2.20. I received about 10 chips in each bag, it wasn't even a third full. I actually struggled to tell which was the medium portion. Total rip off, my children and myself were still hungry afterwards, will not return and I've warned friends and family this chip shop is a rip off.

Once again, we found ourselves in North Street, Forfar, heading for the best chipper in close enough proximity to our home to have become our regular. And, as usual, no regrets in our choice of venue. Both the chips and the fish ordered were cooked from start to finish before my very eyes and not a whole minute elapsed between the time they were handed over in the shop until the moment, in our car, when we opened the boxes and set about our fish suppers. And finally, no problems in the presentation and the very nice taste of our food. Try it yourself, the staff are all friendly and the fare is excellent. An asset to the County Town.
