Popeye's in Cheltenham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Arrived near closing time i think was owner stood by door was uninterested in making any food, there was food in display, had been recommended by a friend who used to go there years ago with his father , regret wasting fuel to go there. Guess as i was in work cloths he didnt think i was a reviewer unfortunately for him. Dowt ill ever go back...

Best fish and Chips in town. All freshly cooked and quality ingredients 😊

Best fish and chips in the south west no doubt. The haddock is freshly battered and u gotta be quick cuz they run out very quickly. I’ve been waiting months to try but today was my lucky day. Good prices aswell 6.30 for a whole haddock. Will be back every time I pass it

I’m not sure why this is named Popeye’s and advertising southern fried chicken as if it’s the American franchise but this is horrible. It’s sad that alot of UK restaurants do that and it’s so off putting.

Great place. Owner is a real Saint. Food is second to none. Chips are always crispy with plenty flavour. I love a fish cake from here. Best around.

Excellent fish and chips and nice service from the young women. My only criticism would be to provide better quality tartare sauce.

I was a regular customer, will now avoid. Apparently the “restaurant menu” is different - asked to move on when bought fish and chips and sat down(raining) in chippy eating in train station - shame as the scran is good not the first time I’ve heard owner be rude to customers such a shame as great food. No one had booked the table no one in chippy shame…

Popped in with the family after we left the nearby train station. Friendly staff and quick service and good sized portions.

Think it may have closed down. Went there on a Thursday evening but it was shut despite Google saying it was open.

Tried this place for the first time. It was easy to park outside and nip in on my crutches. Service was quite quick.

Very good fish and chips. Cooked fresh and worth the wait. Young serving staff, a boy and a girl, were polite and friendly. When the boss appeared, the mood changed. He was quite abrupt and talked down to them. It was awkward as a customer to listen to it. Very patronising. It's a shame because he is clearly brilliant at cooking and knows his business inside out. Definitely recommend the food. Eat in available too.

Great service and great value 👏

DO NOT EAT THE CHICKEN!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bought some fried chicken whilst passing through Cheltenham returning from work and spent the whole night throwing it up in the toilet, absolutely horrific will not be returning.

Just what you want before a long Train journey home after Cheltenham... nice food, good selection, and great service from the girls, nothing too much trouble for them...

Very nice fish and chips. Good size portions and freshly cooked. I didn't eat it but the place looked very clean.

Simply awesome chips and located just outside the train station

Friendly staff and great fish and chips.

As always, excellent food. We have been gping to this restaurant for well over 20 years and it's been - and is - very consistent.

A strange place, I'm not sure about it, I've been several times and can't figure out the opening times, seems to do more lunch time trade than evenings. The food has been good, nice size portions and well packaged to take home. Service is a bit hit and miss, though. The older chap who does the frying is quite unfriendly; the girls who usually serve seem OK. The atmosphere in there is just a bit iffy, not a place to hang around.

I was here the other day and I have to say the chips were very tasty. Every star is for the lovely, polite young gentleman behind the counter who was very efficient. I found the older man with glasses to be confrontational when asking about burger dressing and in general oddly unfriendly to other staff. Confusing to be told the chairs and tables were part of a separate venue when serviced by the same staff. Also, could use a dusting, there was a brussel sprout on the pukka pie sign, which I can only assume didn't grow there but could have been a decor choice. Thank you to this young man.

The young man behind the counter was very nice, friendly and efficient when completing my order. However, he was belittled and criticised incessantly by who I presume was the manager. The food was lovely, affordable and a reasonable price but the attitude and tension in the shop was uncomfortable.

The best fish and chips eat in or take away.

This place can be excellent most of the time hence 4 stars. However you can be unlucky sometimes and get below standard chips. Fish on the whole is excellent and well priced. Normally a load of kids working behind counter, they do a good job. Manager/owner always seems to be stressing over something, not the friendliest man in the world but harmless. You can eat in here and they do table service. I have only ever done this once and it was good. The take away part of the business is by far the busiest bit. Curry sauce is always good here.

Fab chips great fish friendly people. What more can you ask for. Top marks all round

This was just what you'd expect from a chip shop, the staff were friendly and happy to help, the restaurant was clean enough. I didn't use the WC so I can't comment on that. If I did have a grumble, it would be about the portion size... I asked for a small, but it was HUGE and I couldn't finish my meal, tasty though it was.

Worst customer service in Cheltenham. The girl at front was unfriendly and unhelpful for the 2nd time in a row.

Called in here whilst waiting to catch a train at the station. I ordered Pie and Chips. The chips were lovely nice and crispy coating and lovely soft fluffy warm potato inside superbly cooked also the pie was nice and warm fresh not over cooked. Friendly welcome from the staff, reasonable pricing as well. If your in the area it’s worth a visit ideally located across the road from the train station.

Nice Fish and Chips sit down meal after the races

Absolutely fantastic! I've just finished my beautifully cooked cod and chips, the batter was top notch, light as a feather, served with a good portion of crisp outside and fluffy inside chips, plus side salad. Top service from the proprietor and staff too. Highly recommend.

Lovely and delicious freshly cooked fish and chips, fast service tho a lot of people in the queue. Thumbs up

One of the best fish and chips around. Well priced, good quality and friendly staff

This chippy and lakeside chippy are the 2 best in Cheltenham

Excellent as always. Great chippie and top quality.

Quick service and the fish was superb.

This is our local chippy and we're so grateful that they're great at what they do! Chips are perfect and fish always fresh. Nice team too, always polite. Best chippy in Cheltenham I'd say!

Popeye's do a delicious bacon, egg and chips. Naughty but nice! Today I also had apple pie and custard for dessert. Oh yes! Just want I needed.

Lovely food, fast service and polite and friendly staff. Excellent.

Stumbled on this place by accident. Asked if they had any Cod (scarcer than you think these days) and was shown a line of huge battered fish. We ordered Cod, Chips & Mushy Peas twice. The portion was huge but more importantly everything was fresh, crispy, hot and tasted delicious. Go try the place!

Even though we turned up as they closed (sorry we hadn't realised!!) they still cooked us fresh cod and chips which tasted absolutely amazing!! Sorry we kept you a bit late, we will arrive earlier next time!

Excellent customer service and chips were out of this world! Plaice very good too! Definitely recommend.

Best half pounders in the world

Best chips in Cheltenham - Fact!

Great place to get fish and chips.

Perfect fish and chips restaurant

My favourite chippy! Excellent value for money

The staff are always so professional and friendly. Food is good, and they don't scrimp on portion sizes

Nice fish and chips. Great size portions

Best fish & chips in Cheltenham, has a restaurant too so you can eat in.

Been going there all my life. Top people and top food 👍

Great place and good service Food was excellent

Food was ok very greasy and not cooked fully

Love this place....fabulous batter on the fish and chips are great too. If only the staff would shake salt and vinegar from a lower position so it gets on the chips. Have placed a large order over the phone twice and both times it was ready when asked for and everything was right. 10/10

Delicious fish'n'chips! But they didn't know what a pineapple fritter was...

Horrendously overpriced for fish and chips. Especially when told that ketchup was extra as well.

Ideal chippy close to the train station

Very good fish and chips. Pleasant staff who recognise their regular customers. Recommended.

Friendly staff but food bad. Fish tasted funny, ordered cheese burgers no salad but got just burgers no cheese and lots of salad. Chips very greesy.

Best chip shop in Chelt! Good prices and really nice staff. Our new regular chip shop!

Very good fish and chips, a simple, inexpensive pleasure to eat in and get them at their best.

Great service, fantastic chips!

Best chippies in town, consistently xx

Cracking chips and charming service :)

I eat from here on a regular basis. The food is always good and the service excellent.

I'm a frequent visitor and eat a range of their food. The chips are consistently very good and the fish is fresh NOT frozen. Very friendly staff. Strongly recommend this chippy!

Really good quality chip shop and good value with friendly staff.

Excellent fish and chips or chicken wings. Probably this is one of the best chippies in Cheltenham. Always fresh products. You can't go wrong with this.

friendly staff, nice chips & jumbo sausage

Superbly executed fish, crisp, chunky but delicate chips. Strongly recommend.

Been here twice now and found it to be ok. Food was ok, but a bit pricey (£4.95 for scampy n chips). Good service from staff. 50 feet from Cheltenham Spa rail station. 7 out of 10
