Sea Chef in Waveney

Stopped lunch time on Friday 31st March 2023, I was sceptical as there was no chippy smell, ordered chips, and had to wait for a very surly man-who said nothing-to put a few chips in the frier. There was a sense of foreboding as I was the only customer at lunchtime, and no chips frying or ready🤔 After eagerly awaiting my chips, I adorned them with salt and vinegar and took them to the car. The ‘chips’ were absolutely disgusting, with 25% being black inside the chip. There was no ‘chip taste’ and we have eaten at many chippies in Lowestoft with no previous issues These were either frozen/reconstituted and we put them in the bin. This business is in need of an in-depth viability assessment, and indeed, whether this man should be working with the public. Without doubt, the worst chips my wife and I have ever experienced

Friendly service but rather expensive and one medium bag of chips between two seemed rather mean when cod and chips twice were ordered. I expected a portion of chips per person. The cooking and batter were delicious but I fear value for money was not a scoring point. There was a somewhat air of organised chaos about the place. We would have liked to give it four stars but good is what we would score not very good.

I had a lovely piece of haddock with great chips- good portion size too. My husband had battered sausages, local butchers sausages which looked amazing. Our most local chippy and we’ll definitely be back.

A lot of folk waiting when we came here. We did finally get served. Fairly standard fish & chip shop. Got a shock when I got my bill as was more than I'd asked for .He said he charged his battered fish by weight. £1 more for dinner. Wasn't worth arguing with him as was hungry. Alas, another Carlton Colville fail....

I've been here quite a few times now... They are by far the best fish and chips I've ever had... The proprietor is very friendly and polite and so are his staff... I always have haddock and chips and it is so delicious and there's plenty of it... It's great value for money as well...It's always wrapped up well and placed in a paper bag... A few times I've eaten outside on the picnic benches which are provided... I totally recommend it here.
