Just got a fish super from Belmont Road shop I have to be honest it was the worst fish I have ever had over cooked dry and hard . Never will I go back it went in the in. I would have been better to eat the box it came in so disappointed in a chip shop that used to have a great reputation. The one star is to much but this revue system doesn't allow any less. 🤮🤮🤮

No please no thank you just shouting at customers. Honestly sack her she’s not cut out for customer service and quite clearly hates the job. Real let down on an otherwise decent business.

It's been years since I was here. Second time back in as many weeks. Fish is delicious, chips are filled with potato , curry and gravy both equally lovely. We've been looking for somewhere to sit in and get a decent fish with proper chips as most ( most notably Longs) fail to deliver. Batter is light and non greasy and my son enjoyed his burger ( a tad small) even though it was an adult one. We'll be back again soon.

You will never beat the Bethany for pasties. And battered sausages, I can't comment on the fish because I don't eat it. The low score for the food isn't on the quality, the food is great! It's got very overpriced and you don't even get a few chips with a pastie anymore 🤷 you have to order a chip and sometimes you don't fancy loads of chips! For the price I think they should do what every other chippy does and give people a scoop of chips with their order!

Mmmm, where to start? Suffice to say the once superb reputation this place had is gone. Renowned previously for their chicken fillets burgers, now reduced in size by 50%, but not in price. Chips would have appeared to be reheated more than a few times, hard and tasteless. Staff inattentive, no personalities and gave customers the impression they just wanted to go home. Uncleared tables and think that'll be last visit.

If your looking to experience a traditional "fish & chip" shop you remember from your childhood then look no further. The Belany Newtownards Road is it. Real fish & chips & malt vinegar served with bread & butter & a mug of hot tea is the delicious comfort food of yesterdays'. The staff are as warm & welcoming as the little diner in the back of the shop. No frills just great food & portions to set you up for the day. Not to be missed, especially on a cold wet Belfast shopping day & only a few minutes from Connswater.

I wanted to give this place 5 stars on the food, but to be honest, it's just too greasy to eat every day for it to be a 5 star place. The food was great, the service was great and the atmosphere was awesome. I wish they had some healthier options, but what they do is fried food and they do it better then almost anyone out there, so you can't really be mad at it

The Bethany is a Belfast icon and comes with a well deserved reputation for great fish and chips. The food was great, my partner had the fish and chips I ordered one of the beef burgers with a pastie and some chicken bites to share. The burger was nice but the bun was quite dry and mealy, which happens with brioche sometimes. Which is one of the reasons why I'm not a big fan of them as burger buns, but that's beside the point. The chips were thick cut and cooked to perfection, the pastie is famous for a reason highly recommend it and I'm told the fish was on point as well. All in all a great time and I look forward to coming back soon.

The food here is excellent, good value for money. However my complaints would be the cutlery and glasses always seem to be filthy. I’m not sure how these are being washed, this hasn’t been a one off either it’s been the same the past few times we’ve been in.We couldn’t even use the glassware an had to clean the cutlery ourselves with our napkins. Also why are the plates so small chips are always falling of them. I’m sure you can afford bigger plates? Staff at times are also loud an shouting down the restaurant to each other an this totally unacceptable when paying customers are trying to enjoy their meal, so unprofessional. Such a pity as the food is lovely. You Should also have wheelchair access an more seating as people staring at you whilst you’re eating because they’re waiting on a table is off putting.

This was usually a really good place to eat , but I have found when its really busy not as much care is taken with the food . Chips really well done and service was really poor . Prices are good but need to keep the same standards all the time , staff under pressure when busy but staff still very nice , used to go here quite often but have not been since July.

I lived near the Bethany on the Belmont Road 40 years ago. I return once per month from a distance of 38 miles just to have one of their plentiful fish suppers. The quality and size of fish with its perfect crisp batter and the sensation of eating those mighty chips together with the cheerful service and seat inside the shop create the perfect evening for me. my visits to folk are arranged around calling at the BETHANY.

Waited 45 minutes for a cod, scampi and 2 battered sausages. Went and asked how much longer I’d need to wait and was told another 5-10 minutes because they where busy. Asked for a refund and got no apology for the wait. Would avoid at all costs in future.

Called in to Millars today on way home with my wife. We ordered a cheeseburger, fish goujons and a large chip. Got home and opened and I have to say the amount of chips we got was probably the smallest portion of chips I have ever had from any chip shop. To be honest it was disgraceful. Of the fish goujons my wife got at least two were completely inedible. They smelled and tasted off. The burger was also nothing special and quite basic. We were both very disappointed as we had heard good things of this chippy but we will definitely not be back.
