Sorry but the fish was very small and greasy,we didn't get chips because they had run out and the person did not want to fry anymore because it was 20 mins till closing,so can't comment on them,a bit disappointing all round.

Really yummy and reasonably priced for a tourist area with limit options! We were camping nearby and didn't fancy paying £15 a pizza on site so decided to drive into coniston for something to bring back! We didn't see many options for a Saturday night on a brief drive through but we spotted the chippy! It had a bit of a queue but it did go down quickly! It was cash only which is a pain these days but so was the campsite so I half expected it! Luckily the petrol station (which was an excellent shop as well) did cash withdrawals so we got sorted and headed back to the chippy! Staff were friendly, we saw the signs to pre order some of what we wanted and it was ready by the time we got the the till! Still piping hot when we got back to the campsite and was devoured by 6 hungry campers! I'd defo go back there again it was a really good chippy for chips, fish, sausage, burger and loaded chips!

Really good chips, bit of a wait as everything is freshly made, but well worth it. The portion sizes were also very generous and the couple running it were clearly busy but very friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend Our Plaice.

We understand that Our Plaice has recently been taken over and I have to say this, in my view, has been a positive move. A couple of days ago we had four portions of haddock and chips together with the usual sides of mushy peas and gravy. I love gravy on my chips!! Everything was very well cooked, lovely fluffy chips, crisp batter and really fresh fish. The fish was freshly cooked, the wait didn’t bother me as the staff are friendly and we had a good bit of banter in the queue whilst waiting. Definitely returning before we have to sadly go home. Looking forward to our return. Thanks to all at Our Plaice.

We visited Coniston recently and spotted Our Plaice on the way back from a day out. The queue was out the door, but the wait was worth it. Everything is cooked fresh as you go in. Honestly the best steak pie I’ve ever had, even compared to sit in restaurants.

Alright for chips but the portions aren’t that big and the fish was very average . The worst chip shop batter I have ever had, thick and not crispy. Bang average. If you think here is good then you haven’t had proper fish and chips on the north east coast. Only thing in its favour is that it is only £7.50 for fish and chips. But I would rather pay more for better

When we were here, August 2022, only take-away was available. The line was about 15 people deep, so I figured the food had to be good. We were staying at The Sun and they offered no meals except breakfast (for overnight guests). After driving from Broadway all day in the rain, we needed food fast! The line took a bit, but the couple working were working very fast! I sent my husband and the kids to the playground down the street and waited. WOW! Everything was so delicious! We got a few fish and chips, sausage, a cheese burger, chicken nuggets, just a variety of everything and we had a wonderful meal! Very well priced! I was extremely pleased!

We have a tradition of having fish & chips after climbing a high mountain. So it was a given that we picked up fish and chips after climbing Scarfell Pike. Well cooked fish and chips. Not huge portion but perfect for my appetite. Fish didn't have a huge amount of flavour and needed the gravy and peas.

Having to work later than expected we arrived in Coniston after the rush and stopped for Fish and Chips instead of going out. There were only two people in and fish and chips just freshly cooked so it only took a few minutes. It was a great idea as we arrived and we were eating about two minutes after. Super tasty fish and lovely, hot chips with a bottle of local beer was just the ticket! We will consider this option next time we are down.

I visited over the August Bank Holiday weekend. Queuing outside to get in wasn't the issue. Waiting 50 minutes to pick up some fish and chips was ridiculous. When you entered you stated your food request to the gentleman as it's cooked to order. There was one lady serving that had no sense of urgency (or smile) about her. Going backwards would have been faster! The chap you originally ordered with just stood there watching. No common sense in helping serve, no apology for the slow service. Customer service sorely lacking here. The food was good although a little small on the portions. Over £30 for 4 of us, standard these days I suppose but a smile would go a long way! On a Bank Holiday weekend in a tourist area, maybe cooking in advance might have been wiser?

We loved our take away meal (so much so hubby called them afterwards to say thank you). We had a jumbo sausage, a battered cod and chips each. Everything was delicious. The chips we inhaled and the batter on the fish tasted really lovely. The people serving were lovely too. A smile given is a smile returned. A tip - get into the holiday mood of taking it easy and go later, to let the early tea time rush die down.

Cansado, perezoso y con el talón para llevar.Después de un viaje de 5 horas a Coniston y registrarnos en nuestra cabaña, todo lo que nos apetecía era un té frito. Nuestra solla es la única tienda de pescado y patatas fritas de la ciudad y confían en que sea un monopolio. . . patatas fritas mal cocidas, rebozado empapado y caro.Además, en un edificio prefabricado de techo bajo y tan caluroso, sus precauciones Covid son casi inexistentes. La pareja mayor que parece ser propietaria no usa máscaras ni guantes (la asistente más joven sí lo hizo) y los clientes a los que se les permite entrar sin máscaras, solo se les pide que se mantengan a un metro de distancia. Tiramos la mayor parte de nuestra comida y no regresamos.

Después de viajar durante unas horas durante un fin de semana festivo, decidimos tomar un té chippy. Como había una larga cola, supusimos que debía ser agradable, en realidad esto se debe a que es el único chippy alrededor. Una vez que llegamos al frente, vemos un letrero que dice solo efectivo. ¿Por qué no está este letrero afuera para que no tenga que hacer cola y luego salir y regresar? ! ¿Y también por qué es efectivo solo cuando se nos anima a usar la tarjeta mientras se realiza el covid? 4 juegos de pescado y patatas fritas casi 30 bastante caro. El pescado definitivamente no está fresco cuando lo abro, estaba todo pegado y la masa estaba dura y grasosa. Las patatas fritas están bien, pero nada especial. Creo que la única razón por la que la gente va es porque es el único chippy o tal vez simplemente comestible cuando has estado en el pub durante unas horas. Ah, y el personal también es bastante grosero. Ahórrese la visita.

Solo efectivo, este es un problema en una aldea donde hay un cajero automático en una tienda donde solo permiten la entrada de cuatro personas a la vez con la población de Bielorrusia descendiendo en él.Nos las arreglamos para conseguir una comida para llevar de aquí, el pescado era realmente bueno, la masa insípida ya que normalmente se cocina en aceite en lugar de gotear, las patatas fritas eran sobras, entre mi esposa y yo teníamos 3 patatas fritas reales. deben comprar las patatas más baratas que son como canicas. Mi esposa fishcake estaba bien.Siéntete en la cima de la locura del verano, abrir los 7 días de la semana sería mejor, un menú nuevo más moderno y algo de orgullo por lo que sirven convertirían a este chippy en una mejor fuente de ingresos.

Después de un largo día explorando el Distrito de los Lagos, ¡a todos nos apetecía el pescado y las patatas fritas como un regalo! Sin embargo, no salió como se esperaba.En primer lugar, los horarios de apertura son bastante cortos. Como grupo, tuvimos que hacer cola durante más de 30 minutos. Con un tiempo de apertura de solo 3 horas, esta es una ventana bastante corta para entrar y salir. Parece que no tienen suficiente personal y podrían beneficiarse de la ayuda de alguien más, ya que eso aceleraría el servicio.El pescado y las patatas fritas estaban bien, y el pescado tenía una masa ligera y agradable. Debo decir que disfruté mucho la salsa de curry, ¡una de las mejores que he probado en mi vida! ! ! Sin embargo, los guisantes blandos fueron muy decepcionantes, ya que estaban acuosos y sin sabor.Si bien hizo el trabajo de una comida fácil, no volvería a visitarlo.

Buen pescado y patatas fritas, pero debe ser el único lugar en toda Inglaterra que no se ha bifurcado para comprar una máquina de tarjetas, lo que significa que llega al principio de la cola y luego ve el letrero que dice 'solo efectivo' y tiene que deje la cola y regrese a la ciudad para encontrar un dinero en efectivo. Y sin cebollas en escabeche.

Will be going again when i next stay in coniston.Down sides, not that there is many: the food is served in polystyrene cartons, they only serve haddock but i didn't mind as it still tasted great.

I visited Our Plaice today whilst out on shift as a care worker. A little chippy in the heart of Coniston you could easily drive past. This honestly could be my only fault, the lady and gentleman behind the counter couldnt be faulted for thier hospitality - especially given I was a new face during the lockdown. The fish, oh my dear lord the fish, as the title suggests, it was absolutely obscene! I have not had fish and chips like that since I was a child! The chips were second to none too! The excellent quality of the food combined with the hospitality and reasonable pricing made me a happy man! So much so I've made an account on here just to leave a review! I hope you guys continue to cope well with the lockdown and I will be back! Lovely

¡Trabajo en una tienda de chips local de mi casa, pero tengo que conducir un par de millas hasta este! No se puede superar las gotas de goteo y las porciones siempre son suficientes! La comida es hermosa y fresca! Creo que los precios están a la par con la mayoría de las tiendas de pescado y papas fritas medio decentes o buenas, así que siempre vale la pena. Usualmente ordenamos como familia y compartimos en lugar de comidas individuales y hay más que suficiente. El bacalao es el mejor y vale la pena probar otros peces.¡Mi madre, quien de Devon, dijo que eran los mejores fish and chips que había probado en su vida!

Llevé a mi familia a esta tienda de chips esta noche. La mujer fue grosera y dio la impresión de que estábamos entrometiendo, a pesar de que éramos las únicas personas en la tienda. Pedí bacalao, pero ella solo tenía eglefino. Luego pregunté por el pescado de los niños para nuestros 4 hijos, pero me dijeron "no hacemos porciones para niños", así que tuve que comprar un eglefino entero para los niños, que ella cortó por la mitad. Luego le pregunté si envolvería el pescado y las papas fritas en papel (no una caja de plástico) pero lo guardó en una bolsa. En cada momento lo que le pedimos no hizo. No hubo calor ni intento de servirnos. El pescado era bastante desagradable, y las patatas fritas eran horribles. Esta fue probablemente la peor tienda de chips en la que hemos estado. Ojalá hubiéramos conducido. . .

Seeming how the line was so long we expected good food, however this was not the case. A burger and chips only £2.50; bargain you may think. Until you find out they make it out the back, plant it in a soggy bun with artificial cheese, then cover in greasy, anaemic chips. The burger itself is strange in appearance and could not be eaten in fear of becoming ill. Fish and chips extremely expensive and very poor, suffered an upset stomach after eating them. Peas, one word and that’s dreadful. I didn’t even fancy my can of coke after enduring that. Finally the staff, were unhygienic, coughing into hand while wrapping food! All in all an experience I will unfortunately not forget. TERRIBLE !!! 0 STARS!!!!

Some poor reviews on here...but we all know it’s a personal thing how we like our fish n chips!We loved it.Fish cooked to order - so fresh and crisp batter.We both had fish and chips both times - and both times was tasty!!Mushy peas are bland, but nothing a bit of ketchup didn’t sort!Seen a few comments about the lady serving. We found her quite lovely when we spoke to her, we had a giggle regarding the pronunciation of tartar sauce! And I’ve worked in a chippy myself, it isn’t exactly an enjoyable job. Hot, greasy and go home smelling of chip shop - give the woman a break guys! Anyway...just grab yourself a a chippy tea and go sit by the lake and watch the sun go down with a tin o’ cold beer.

Llegamos a Coniston y pensamos que solo tendríamos pescado y papas fritas mientras nos desempacamos. Al entrar en la tienda, que estaba limpia, nos recibió un hombre bastante feliz que nos atendió. La comida se veía bien y olía bien también. Al consultar nuestro cambio con la mujer no tan sonriente ni feliz que toma nuestro dinero, parece que nos cobró demasiado. Al explicar lo que habíamos pedido, resultó que ella había cometido un error, pero se dio cuenta de que era culpa nuestra. La comida era buena y habría dado un cuatro si sonreía. Tal vez el tipo que nos sirvió debería obtener un cinco por aguantarla.

A nice little family-run (by the looks of it!) chippy. We had had a late/large lunch so weren't needing a lot to eat, so between five of us we shared two fish and chips, which was a perfect amount! The portion sizes are good - nice size bit of fish and a good amount of chips. The fish was fine, a little bit dry for my tastes, but the batter was nice - crispy and not too heavy. The chips were the real highlight for me, chips can be so hit or miss! But these were delicious. All in all, good value (£6 for a fish supper isn't bad at all) and a good meal was enjoyed by us all. It's in a good location for taking your chips down to the lakeside as well. Recommended!

Stayed in Coniston for a week so needed my weekly fish, chips and mushy peas fix. Usually have cod but they only do haddock and really enjoyed it. The batter was a quite smooth compared to what I'm use to but was still lovely and crisp even after the 8 minute drive back to our lodge in Water Yeat. Would certainly recommend if you're missing your usual Fish Friday.

Went here twice whilst staying in Coniston for a week. The second time was on Good Friday. We had a big order for 15 people and we rang it in an hour before. It was ready on time and was boxed up for us to take away. Everyone sat in silence as they ate and all commented how good the fish and chips were. They are slightly more expensive at £6 for fish and chips, but peas/gravy/curry at 70p is good value. Very good food.

I just popped in to buy food for my children - 2xfish and chips, 1xchicken nuggets and chips. There was only haddock but that's ok with me as I think it's better than cod. The fish batter looked a bit greasy but my children chomped it up and said they loved it. I was a bit disappointed that the portion of chicken nuggets was just 4 nuggets, so I got a sausage as well. Again, my daughter chomped it up and said it was great. So overall I would say it's not the best fish and chips shop I've been to, but it definitely did the job and I'd go there again.

Perfectly cooked fish and very tasty chips all at a very reasonable price! Portions are very big too! Would recommend this place.

Fish awfull, batter soggy, tasteless rubbish, threw the majority into the bin just outside, clearly the picture inset has nothing to do with this establishment.

Great fish but batter flat and slightly oily as fat temperature was not hot enough. Chips were crispy and perfect but they had, literally, just come out of the fryer so they were at their best.

We stopped here one night during our week in Coniston for takeout fish & chips. The chips were ok but could of done with being a bit crispier and less greasy. Everyone enjoyed the fish again Batter was a bit greasy. The peas were odd - they were really bland and needed loads of seasoning. Even then only barely edible. Service was lovely & quick though and fairly good value. £33 for 4 fish, chips & peas. 1 battered sausage & 1/2 chips and 1 chips & peas and a can.

Picked up a couple of fish suppers from here one evening. Fish was fresh and lightly battered (perhaps a bit crispy) and chips well cooked. Price was reasonable. The only thing was the time it took to be served. They operate a one at a time policy which doubtless means the fish is freshly cooked but could see no reason why a few orders couldn't be taken at a time and still maintain freshness-there were 3 behind the counter. Saw a few people walk out as a consequence which is a shame.Perhaps go when it's quiet!

Very fresh fish and good value. Don't let the queue out the door put you off, it's there because it's that good. Efficient and fairly fast service, depends if there's local folk in getting their fish supper! If the locals go it must be good. Always have one fish supper when we're camping near by.

Popped in to the chip shop for a snack after a long hike. Wow, these chips tasted great. Nice and thick, hot and good smattering of salt and vinegar. Went back next day for carry-out dinner order but they close at 8:00pm. What a shame.

Our Plaice is now a Take Away Chip Shop rather than a sit in restaurant, but offers made to order food whilst you wait. Their fish is fresh and cooked in front of you and prices are extremely reasonable. They are only open at tea time (from about 5pm through to 8pm) and the food is well cooked. Over the two weeks in Coniston, we had fish and chips three times it was so nice. Our daughter just loved their curry sauce and would have brought a vat of it away if she had the chance!.

Due to a phone ahead order there was quite a wait but our bag of chips was enjoyed. Not a massive portion but enough for us to share.

This was Friday night dinner for us after travelling up to Coniston and checking into our B&B- nice fresh fish and fresh cooked chips with excellent mushy peas. There are a few picnic benches outside and we sat and had the excellent food in lovely sunshine .well worth going to for a nutritious quick meal.

Have called here many times over the years when visiting Coniston and never disappointed. We were the only ones in takeaway area and had to wait for food to be cooked from scratch, it was definitely worth the wait as the fish was cod and outside of Whitby was the tastiest battered fish I have had. The chips were hot and not greasy. Best takeaway I have had in a long time and would recommend to visitors to Coniston. The lady serving was very friendly. PS the Lake is nice too!

We have been using the takeaway for many years now, and all food cooked to order. At busy times you might have to wait awhile, but it is worth it in the end. Fish and chips per portion is £6, which is very reasonable, considering how expensive the Lake District can be. Food is very good, and have never has any complaints.We will back at Our Plaice next year.

Lovely food - good price - plaice was busy (intended) - just watch out for the old man doing the frying - customer service isn't his forte!

We though we would have fish and chips for dinner as a treat on our holiday and chose to use the "our plaice" chop shop in coniston as it was near to our stay and we always choose to support the local area. There is a resteraunt area but this was closed so we used the traditional counter to the side . Whilst my family waited in the car I spent 30 minuets in the que of eight people. Everything seems to be cooked to order this good I thought. As I got closer I witnessed the mushy peas, curry or gravy? Being topped up just poured into the old dried around the top and stired in so I didn't choose any for the concern of our health. The place seemed to be family run with girl on the till who smiled a lady of big hair no hair net and the man frying blank faced and no eye contact, this makes me mad it's there business customer service costs nothing.! And makes all the difference. Anyway all I asked for was two large portions of chips and a cod simple. The kind lady said so you want fish and chips and chips then . Ok the Chip portion with the fish came almost twice the size of the single portion and you can not choose the sizes but they cost the same. On serving up the food back at the caravan the chips were heavy in oil and we had to take the batter off the fish it was drenched in oil, thick, dark brown and grim. If they have lost interest in their business find something else or rekindle it and enjoy it. Sorry to say we will not be using this shop again.

We arrived here about 8.20pm on Friday looking for takeout (Our Plaice was due to close at 8.30). So many other chip shops would say they've switched the fryers off etc, but not here. They were only too happy to rustle up fish and chip and sausage and chips from scratch - and boy they tasted good! Several other people arrived after us too and, along with a bit of banter, that got their dinners too. Lovely welcome to a week away

We travelled over from Hawkeshead to get fish and chips for our supper whilst staying in the area. Cannot fault it for taste and value for money. Cannot imagine where people are coming from when they said portion sizes were small - the fish was enormous, cooked to order and tasted delicious.

Barmaid wanted £36. I said, "£36 for two puddings and a pint and a half?" She immediately reconsidered. "It's £29.50.". She printed me a receipt and said, "You asked for extra custard. Life isn't free, sir." I had indeed asked for extra custard, for which I had only been charged a pound. But obviously, people who query bar bills in the Lakes are regarded as the lowest form of scroungers.

Tempted by window display. No prices displayed, shocked at prices. Asked if I wanted vegan sausage roll warmed. Outside was warm, middle stone cold. Stodgy, salty filling. Would have preferred a Greggs. Over priced and disappointing 😞
