Have had lovely fish and chips in the past but tonight the fish was already cooked and in the warmer- not very nice, and the chips which seemed reheated were a disappointment. Wrong curry given also.

This chip shop used to be fantastic, but over the last 3 years it’s declined into an absolute circus. The staff look overwhelmed, out of their depth, and miserable. I’m guessing it’s a “cash in hand” setup seeing as they still don’t take card payments. Anyway, the good I ordered last week was absolutely the last straw, the chips were black and green, they looked days old, and I got a nice little surprise in my curry sauce, (see picture) A slice of doner meat, in the curry, anyone who knows anything about food safety will understand this cross contamination is definitely due to poor food safety management, the EHO will certainly be getting an email and pictures. It’s one thing being busy, and struggling to maintain good customer relations, but this is just disgusting and lazy hygiene standards. Maybe one day it will be bought out by a family or owner who pays staff fairly and understands safe food hygiene practices! PS: the owner who runs about in a grey tracksuit needs to be barred from ever entering a professional kitchen ever again!

I’m not sure what has happened to this takeaway. We decided to have a Chinese meal of beef and green peppers with chips and unfortunately for the second time it was really poor. Tough, chewy beef with a very odd tasting sauce. As for the chips reheated, greasy, tasteless and just not pleasant at all. It’s such a shame as we have had many a good meal from this takeaway over many years but unfortunately we will not be returning .

If you like re heated chips then this is the place for you. Third time I’ve been over the last couple of years (I thought I’d give it another go) but every time the same …. Yesterdays reheats! Chips looked like they needed CPR going into from the fryer and come out to a funeral March! Both me and the misses feel like we’ve been on a P n O cruise across the Mersey 🤢! Never again!

I've visited this chippy 3 times now over an 8 year period, leaving a couple of years inbetween and nothing has changed. I visited yesterday in a hope that finally it might have improved and as expected nothing has changed. Again like my previous 2 visits, rock hard burnt cold chips, rock hard cold chicken and mushroom pie and cold scollops. Not even fit enough to feed it to my dog!! I will NEVER visit this takeaway ever again!

2 small fish, 1portion chips! The reason I gave food one star was because of the chips, freshly fried, golden in colour, very tasty. As far as the fish was concerned, it was my worst ever takeaway. The batter was very hard and probably intended as a substitute for RAAC concrete. The fish was well overcooked and dry, not even the ever hungry dog would have it. The first time I ever had an inedible meal from this chippie. The purchase was made at 12.20 pm but tasted as though it was left over from previous evening and re deep-fried. It taught me a lesson.

My favourite place for fish and chips on the Wirral. No longer as affordable as it used to be, but where is? 80% of the time when I go in, the fish is fresh from the fryer and always delicious, especially with a healthy (or less than healthy) drizzling of vinegar and pinch of salt. Huge menu that to be honest, I've not tried a huge amount from but that which I have has always tasted great, particularly the fried rice.

This used to be the best kebab on the wirral, having not been for 5 or so years i thought I'd give it a go. It's terrible now. Weird anemic donner, cheap cash n carry chilli sauce and under cooked soggy chips. £8 for the food and £1.20 for the multipack can of coke!? Won't be going back. The staff was sound. Never the less I wont go back. Now need to find the best kebab on wirral. Any suggestions?

Thank you on this occasion to Shannon. 5 stars yet again. Best wishes to you all over Christmas and into 2023.

Went in Monday 28/11/22 the girl behind the counter extremely rude , took my order three times went back to my car checked it and she had forgotten one item . Went back in and said there was one thing missing and she said ‘what’s missing ‘I told her and she repaid abruptly, ‘well what do you expect I’m a mind reader you didn’t ask for it ‘!! .so I said but you have charged me for it and she then gave me what I asked for without an apology . She just wasn’t rude to me either . There was a young lad who had just finished work and gave his order in , he was standing there for about ten minutes and she then said to him ‘ what are you standing there for ? He smiled and said jokingly, ‘ I’m waiting for my dinner ‘ . She replied ‘ yeah well you can wait a bit longer !!! I could not believe her rudeness , we should have all thrown our orders back her , gravy curry sauce and mushy peas . She is absolutely horrid , never going there again and I will be telling many people not to go . Fish is disgusting , chips are worse … really really horrid place to go .Don’t recommend it’s trash . They really need to sort there staff out . Horrible horrible person she is

Absolutely and utterly appalled at the service and the way in which the staff member spoke to a man who was in last night. He had been waiting and not heard his order was called and she said what are you waiting for in the most unruly manner to which he jokingly replied my dinner with a smile on his face and she replied with well you’re going to have to wait longer now. She was disgusting and the food was absolutely terrible not going ever again.

We have been fairly regular customers to Pensby Fish Bar for many years and found it to be the best takeaway for fish and chips. However haven’t been for a while and decided to have some this evening. I was so disappointed in the quality of the fish. I bought a large fish, portion of chips and sweet curry. The fish was virtually non-existent, comprising mainly of batter. Very greasy and inedible. The chips and curry were ok.

Service is great, always is. Me and my partner have come here for years, and especially of late have enjoyed enzo’s ice cream dessert. So when we came back for a 2nd time in the week we didn’t like the fact it was taken off of the menu. Everything else is great as per, from the wine, main course and the service that makes it. But since his custom ice creams were good enough to convince my friend and his partner to go too, it would be dissapointing to see it discontinued.
