Spinners Fisheries in Kirklees

Have been a couple of times before and the fish and chips were lovely so thought we would bring my father. We decided to venture into the restaurant bit as there was no available seating elsewhere. This was where our experience went wrong. Waited around while for someone to take our order and then waited and waited for our food. We waited half an hour for our food despite people being in and out of the chip shop bit within 5 mins. After 25 mins we asked where our food was and the lady said they were waiting on chips. Our pot of tea had gone cold and another drinks had been drunk. Finally our food came and two of the fish were very thin and the chips were a much smaller portion that you get from the counter. We paid £54 for the privilege of being ignored for half an hour when other fish and chips were being served from the counter for takeaway, their fish and chips costing &5 less than ours. We also learnt from a small sign on the wall facing away from us that they do a pensioners menu but we were never offered that despite my father looking all his 84 years. Wouldn’t return to the restaurant area again and would think twice about even visiting the place again

Thank you so much Tracy, you remembered us from a previous visit. You gave us time and personal attention, my husband really appreciated it. The meals were excellent and both plates were left clean. He loved it all.

AMAZING family celebration the team could not have done more. Thank you Tracey and your team 🎉 For a 57th wedding anniversary with a very mixed age range in our party, the restaurant felt like family joining in the fun amazing fresh food and great service. Thank you thank you thank you 🎉

We Had a wonderful lunch here today. Choose the over 65’s 3 course menu prawn cocktail - scampi & chips fantastic mushy peas -apple pie and sticky toffee pudding with custard . Tea bread with Best butter . It was served by a very friendly lady who was very kind and the service was excellent. We will be back again soon x

We had gorgeous take away fish and chips tonight. 'Meaty' haddock in tasty batter. The chips were really lovely (and I'm not a huge chip fan). Nice mushy peas too. I've never eaten in the restaurant but it is set out really great. The place always looks very clean.

Just been to pick up takeaway. I drive past a lot, but this was my first visit, I’ve been looking forward to getting rich and chip from here, but it was so disappointing. I had fish chip and beans with cost about £10.70, quite pricey but it was a treat so though ok. The fish was really small, as if a fillet had been cut along the middle lengthways and halved. It was also really rubbery, a really weird texture, was not sure what type of fish it was, I wished I had asked now. The batter was soggy and not crispy at all, it was also really oily, I couldn’t eat it. The chips were ok, but again a small portion and quite oily. The only nice thing was the beans, I feel like I’ve just had a very expensive pot of beans. I love a chippy tea and was looking forward to trying Spinners, very disappointed, I won’t be back :(

We came on Sunday with a party of 39 people from batley mencap. The staff were brilliant very patient with the members. The food was delicious, served nicely and hot. Thankyou for a lovely afternoon we will be back!!

Overated pretentious so called restaurant. Would give a greasy spoon caf more credibility for food. Does a large special just mean longer fish with more stringy bits at the end.. A large special is £17.40 with chips. Take away... Small chip portion... All bits. Nothing good I chips length to make a decent chip butty.

Called in Tuesday lunchtime with daughter and grandson , we hade fish n chips with bits and mushy peas each , with dandelion and burdock pop, It was very nice indeed , lovely . We will return

Best fish and chips I've had , will definitely be going back even though we lie one hundred and twenty miles away

Called in on way back to Leicester Excellent fish and chips batter so light all cooked perfect ,well priced friendly staff clean bright a proper gem with plenty off road parking a 5 star dining experience

Great fish, chips and real mushy peas. Chips were perfect, batter lovely and as I say real mushy peas...no tins here! Good prices,friendly helpful staff and importantly clean premises.

Called in on my way home from work for a lunch takeaway and was not disappointed. Very good quality fish, white and textured. Batter crisped to perfection, chips also perfect - complemented by the essential sloppy peas. Counter service was friendly and very engaging. Will definitely call again!

My wife called for tea time meal for 3 of us, we had decided to try spinners instead of our regular as there is very little difference in journey times,unfortunately the whole meal was colder,batter not as crispy,I personally was disappointed as I was hoping for the opposite,sorry

The fish and chips here are great. But EVERY single time I go in there, my order seems to create complete disarray. The final time I went in, my order was given to a guy who came in after me and I was told - while the second guy was still there - that I had to wait another 10 minutes. So I don't go any more.

Fantastic fish and chips, great service, good price and ampke parking. Well recommended. Will definitely be back.

Called in for a quick lunch. The place was quiet but the lunchtime rush was over. The place is exceptionally clean and well maintained. The staff all friendly and polite. Nothing was too much trouble. Will certainly be back!

Hugely disappointed had to wait ages to be served and then a man came in and was served before me. Given a size of fish that looked the size of nemo and this cost me £6. The chips were good portion but no scraps as requested. Staff need to ask themselves would i be happy to have this size of fish served up to me or my family? even if I was the last customer before closing! I am a dewsbury resident and have been before and happy with my order but after this will never frequent again

I am disabled and diabetic and needed to eat. I have eaten in the restaurant and it was very good. Was driving passed and stopped to get a takeaway. I wish I hadn’t bothered. The fish was dry but also incredibly greasy. I did open the takeaway box before I left the shop to put on salt and vinegar and did think they did not look great but I did not want to make a fuss. I went back to my car and attempted to eat this horrible mess. As well as the fish being dry and greasy it was also cold as were the chips. There were scrappy and hardly good enough to call chips. If it had not been too painful to walk back to the take away from the car park for me I would have returned the lot. Very very disappointing will not use the takeaway again and will tell others the same. Should be ashamed to sell this rubbish at £8.95 rip off.

This place used to be the best, but not any more. Got a hand full of xl chips, mixed in with the rest, that were half cooked and spent time when I got home picking the wrapping paper off the food - there was greaseproof paper but it was under the chip bag, also greaseproof, and not protecting the fish from sticking. After paying £8.95 each I expected better - won't be going again.

Not a good experience at al. £40 for 2 x fish and chips, pot of tea and bread and butter. The fish was not fresh, bone dry, and the chips were like they had been re-fried. This used to be a great place, not so...

The fish and chips were not freshly made, they were only 4/10 because the chips were dry and scrappy, the fish not nice because it was not freshly cooked and there was a fatty/oily taste. The service is friendly but they are too expensive not...

We had been out and about exploring the area whilst on a trip to Leeds. Thought we would give this restaurant ago as we were hungry. So glad we did. The food was excellent. Best fish and chips We’ve had in a long time. Mr,...

I absolutely love this chippy! I live in the south west and miss my northern fish and chips. No one makes fish and chips like the people in Yorkshire, and Spinners is my favourite. I come here every time I visit Yorkshire and I’ve never...

Excellent food, spotless restaurant and toilets Staff are impeccably dressed. Will definitely be returning.

This is a must visit restaurant, absolutely stunning very modern and perfectly hygienically clear with extremely high standards. Opening every day of the week. Phenomenal service from all the staff. Also doing a Mother’s Day special menu.

We wanted to try this place for ages, and wow well worth the wait, we had Fish and Chips each and these were possibly the best we have ever had, not greasy and very warm food,q very succulent fish and would recommend anyone who hasn't...

Called on Christmas Eve at about 5pm to collect takeout for 4 adults, Only 2 fish ready, had to wait for 2 more cooking. Staff very pleasant, place spotlessly clean but that's were the good news ended. Got 4 fish, 3 lots chips and 2...

We had fish and chips, mushy peas, curry sauce and two teas. Hubby said the restaurant looked clean but we were just trying the takeaway today. I was hoping they would be nice as we have tried all the others in the area and most...

Loved the fish and chips here. The young lass serving was polite and helpful and the decor is way above the usual fish and chips shop. Very clean and felt more like a restaurant. Read bad comments about the batter but mine was perfect. That...

Amazing clean fish and chip shop, good size car park and out side eating area for take always, very clean toilet to rear of property, excellent service from the young lady that served me. I prefer the batter more crispy, the fish was white then...

Called in on Sunday after a hard days work The batter on the fish and sausage was terrible (soggy) The chips wear cold and ony soggy messy Will not go again

If i could add another star i would. Spotlessly clean fish and chip shop with a take to counter and a very well appointed seating area. This location in the past was a great pub, but as times change so do buildings and this one...
