CUSTOMERS TALK ABOUT DISHES WITH..codbatteredcheesefishladysausagechickencookedcurry

Avoid! This is the portions they gave us for regular chips! The boxes weren’t filled. It’s an extra £1.80 for cheese and that’s all you get, this is what it was like when I brought them home, a 5 minute drive away! They were cold and stale, the cheese didn’t melt whilst it was in the box. What a huge disappointment 🫠 In total it was £11.25 for 1 regular chips, 1 regular cheese & chips 2 buns and 1 curry sauce!!

Ordered on Friday evening from just eat, they delivered it to someone else so obviously didn’t ask for the confirmation code. Contacted the shop who were disinterested and said ‘oh yeah that’s happened quite a few times’, no apology, no replacement food offered unless I collected and paid again which defeats the whole object of having the food delivered. Very sad children who had cereal instead. Very poor customer service.

Fish was dry chewy and small. Chips where ok. Most of it went directly to the bin. Only visited as Friar Tucks was closed. I will not be going there again. I have no idea how they could have won an award, unless it was for worst chippy in the South West. (this is the 1st bad review I have ever left. 39 years old.

This was always our place to go for Fish and chips. Went tonight 3rd Aug and have to say food was not good. Fish very dry and chewy to eat, gave half of it to the dog! Chips not much better either. Such a shame that this has gone down hill.

Very dissapointing to see such decline. Had not been for several months, need a huge improvement on customer service, 30 mins wait to watch and listen to unproffesional and immmature staff. Finished product was so salted and lacking crispiness was far from a good experience. Not likely to visit again unless there's a change of management

I have been to this fish and chip shop on a number of occasions and always found it very good, but last night was a different case. Service was not good, young lady (blond curly hair) got orders wrong even missed orders. But the food was dreadful, fish batter was oily and soggy with no crunch and tasted of really cheap contents, the chips were even worse, undercooked and running with oil. Not a good show for a once award winning fish and chip shop. Best way to show my disappointment is not to go there again.

The fish and chips were actually a lot better this evening than they have been for a while. However, I still can’t understand why the saveloys always look like they have been in a fight and lost all their skin! Even when you specifically ask for a saveloy with skin on!! If we lived nearer I would have taken it back!

£41 spent here on just eat and Things missing from order and kids portions!!! You get more for your money at McDonald's!! Fish is not a regular and very small and also chewy which indicates frozen fish. Avoid this place and spend your money on somewhere more upmarket like KFC or McDonald's. At least at McDonald's your Filet-o-fish will ten times more likely be fresher than the garbage these guys sell!! You will definitely get more chips from there. AVOID AVOID AVOID.

This is are go to Chippy, for fish bites chips and curry. Unfortunately the curry sauce has gone down hill . It’s no longer a sauce thick lumpy and tastes and texture of curry powder that’s not been absorbed. We did complain on our next visit but to be honest fell on deaf ears, with no offer of a free replacement. Felt disappointed ☹️ by the response from the young lady. Otherwise we always enjoy!

Been getting fish and Chips here for years and always found it exceptionally good. This evening 4/12/23 the large fish and chips I took home was less than satisfactory. This fish batter was very pale in colour and extremely soft and soggy. The chips also very limp and all stuck together. Got the impression it had all been kept in the hot cabinet for too long. I will think twice about returning.

Breaks my heart to write this but the Fish Shed has been my compulsory stop off for the deep fried scallops and chips whenever I’ve been passing as it’s the best I’ve ever tasted. On our recent stop over we were served by a very unenthusiastic lady but to make matters worse the chips weren’t as well cooked and crunchy as previous visits but worst of all the batter on the scallops was soggy and stuck to the box sonot a patch on all my previous portions. Please please can you get back to how everything was cooked in previous visits/years as you’ve been recommended to a lot of people.
