It was a good filling meal wasn't able to eat it all, and I thought it was very inviting to me all the staff were helpful and looked happy, I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Rude, miserable owner that will make you feel very unwelcome! I can only presume that she's the owner, because if not, then I'm sure she would have been let go by now! I'm not sure why she is still in the trade because she clearly hates it! When leaving (disheartened by the awful service I received), I heard her arguing with a family that were ordering at the counter. Then I realised that she genuinely was not a nice person! What a shame. Such a perfect location but ruined by a miserable lady that should retire. Avoid at all costs and find somewhere else that deserves your money!

Staff are ignorant and rude to both customers and the law. 20p for a plastic bag to carry your food (which is exempt for the plastic bag charge fyi) Then told minimum charge of £1 for card (again against consumer laws since 2015.) And the ignorant women behind the till who needs to cheer up. (Old one) Try a different chippy.

Needed somewhere to have traditional fish and chips and found this place. Fish was cooked to order which was nice and good size fish portion too. And mushy peas was of good portion too. Meal was hot and tasty though a little on the expensive side.

Disappointed doesn’t even cover it. Mushy and small cod. Terrible batter. Cold atmosphere. Expensive for how little you get. Avoid.

Came here as we wanted a chippy for tea and it was close to the beach so we could wander down and have it there instead of going further into the town centre. What a terrible decision this turned out to be. First of all the staff were all stood there gormless and unfriendly, but I can normally see past that as they might have being having a bad day. Anyway to the food, we ordered a small cod, a “regular” chips (I say regular but the portion was quite small) a jumbo battered sausage and regular sausage. The price was quite steep too as it was about £5-6 more than we pay at home. It wasn’t too long and we could understand why once we finally sat down and unpacked everything. First off the chips were quite anemic but tasted okay, just okay. The curry sauce was watery but that tasted; again, just okay. The sausages were below average, but (yet) again okay. The worst part by a country mile was the fish being the mushiest, bland tasting, unpleasant cod I’ve ever had. The batter on both the sausage and the fish was undercooked, oily and tasted like the wrong batter. I’ve been to a lot of fish and chip shops and I don’t really ever say avoid them but this is one I’d steer way clear of, for your own good.

Didn't realise you got a sausage with the bucket of chips, she did ask me if I wanted one but I thought it was extra, when I told the lady this she said "well I did ask" but she didn't offer to give me one even though I had basically paid for it one.

Paid £6.10 for a regular chips and a curry sauce. Portion of chips was more like a small and they tasted just like fresh, raw fish- not sure whether the oil just needed changing or what? Not pleasant. Curry sauce was also runny and didn’t have much flavour. Not too impressed.

Chips were okay, nothing special but I was shocked at the price of the extras. 25p for a tiny sachet of mayonnaise and £1.50! For a small fruit shoot. Would not go back. Better value at the one by the harbour and tastier chips.

I would recommend avoiding this place. Here for lunch while away on holiday with two young children. Several items on the menu they don’t do anymore and give you your food different to what is stated in the menu. Extremely high prices for the quality of food and service we received here. The only pleasant part of the meal was the ham and cheese baguette, the sausage was soggy and didn’t look fully cooked and the kids fish was greasy and soggy. The young staff were very polite and friendly but the older woman on the till was very blunt rude and sarcastic. In the time we sat waiting for our food once ordered, the lady managed to upset three other customers by the way she spoke to people. Not a pleasant experience. Very poor customer service.

Decided to eat here for a spot of lunch whilst on holiday, looks lovely but the staff seemed very blunt, when ordering the food, 2 sausages and a medium portion of chips, I was expecting a decent size as this came to £13, when it arrived, I was awfully shocked, for that price my partner and I got a handful of chips, the battered sausage looked anaemic and raw. I would stay away from here! Not the standard you’d expect.

How can someone serve Fish and Chips with ZERO flavour. Vile, No taste in the batter, chips or fish. Don't know whether it's the oil he is using or the batter he was making, but I would not recommend this place to anyone !

Prefect location and great chips in a tourist area. Usually, when you have chips in a popular location they are bland. These were perfect and not greasy. Seen a couple of reviews on pricing but don't forget it's seafront location will effect the overheads. Food very much worth it!

From the second we approached the cafe bar, we received excellent service. The doors were faulty- no problem they opened the doors for us and were very apologetic!We were promptly served after choosing from the decent menu at reasonable prices! We both selected haddock and chips with mushy peas. FAB portion sizes and the food itself was delicious.Service from a man who was clearly passionate and proud so possibly the owner, was brilliant! We’ll definitely be back!!

This used to be my familys favourite place to eat. Always a warm welcome and great fish and chips and a reasonable price. We saw it was open today (which is very unusual as the previous owners went to Thailand every winter)Straight away you could tell something had changed. Although who I assume to be the new owner was friendly, the prices now actually shocked us. One portion of fish and chips' 2 childrens meals and 2 fruit shoots and a pot of tea £28! It was nice but we realised as well as the prices rises(Chocolate Milkshake £5) I had actually paid £3 alone forthe privilege of eating in. A shame really.

On our last day on holiday in Devon we wanted a good fish and chips lunch. Looked at several restaurants before deciding on the Sea Bank. It was a gorgeous day and many people were eating outside on the terrace, but we opted for inside. The cafe was spotlessly clean, bright and inviting. Service was friendly and very efficient. The fish and chips were fantastic. Large piece of fish , perfectly cooked, in lovely light crispy batter, a good portion of proper chips - not soggy, not hard, not dry inside but just exactly right. The view across Torbay wasn't bad, either. If we had been staying longer we would most definitely have gone back.

Tried the fish and chip shop due to the reviews but found it to be pretty average at best considering the cost.

So we drove from the Cotswolds to Torquay to look at a house and decided to take a neighbour and our dogs for a full day. It was a hot, close day so seating outside was a must. walking past the usual panini, pizza places we saw this place. Clean, nothing special from the outside then we saw the food. Oh yes, beautiful fish and chips. Thick white cod with almost a tempura batter, so light. The chips were perfect.

The Dumpling is a fantastic pub. I have held two events here, a baby shower and sadly a wake. The buffet food was great and included gluten free options as requested. The manager and staff are very accommodating and passionate about bringing the local community and people together. We have had a fair few meals here over the last 10 years since moving to Shiphay and this pub holds a special place in my heart. It has allowed me to meet lots of people living in the community and those who don’t. I feel comfortable walking into this pub on my own and if none of my fellow local drinkers are around, I can sit myself at the bar and have a chat and laugh with the friendly, helpful bar staff as well as chatting to new people. The pub gives back in so many ways by supporting the community and also holds a weekly coffee morning (where my elderly mum in law has met new friends that she now goes out with and has been a life line for her), live music events and a great out door area when the weather is good. If you want a drink, something to eat or somewhere to hold an event I recommend giving the Dumpling a try.

We were seated and served by a lovely guy named Jordan. He was incredibly friendly, and nothing was too much to ask. I have a nut allergy and Jordan went to check the allergen information for the mixed grill. The food was perfect, but as always, I couldn't finish it, because the pasta at the salad bar was too good to put down.
