The Boythorpe Fryer in Chesterfield

Excellent food proper seaside type chips as long as the current owners run it ill get my chippys form here

Always had such good experiences and lovely food. Decided to go for a little lunch on Saturday, we had had such a busy morning. The chips were nice, but the fish was very small and not chunky with crispy batter. The problem was with the sour faced owner who served us. I only ordered chips at £1.50 and just after ordering anything else the owner said (with a sour face) could I pay cash. Didn’t even crack a smile! Had fish, chips and two drinks. Owner and staff chunttering on about us behind the counter in front of us. Up your game boythorpe fryer and the sour faced owner. You’re in the wrong job love!. There’s so much competition out there. Will not be visiting again, you’ve lost our custom!

The food was ok, the main problem is the massive attitude problem of the lady owner , I asked if I could pay by card and she snappily said don't you have cash which I didn't , I wish I would have just said if that's a problem don't bother and walked out, she also continued to look me up and down with a dirty look. I don't give many reviews but felt this was needed , I won't be calling again!

Good food, low prices and friendly staff.

Food at best is a 2, cold soggy chips dry fishcakes and sausage. Vile. What's even worse is the attitude of the middle aged woman with black hair, rude, abrupt and such a vile attitude. Not how you speak and act towards customers. Wouldn't recommend this place.

Very good food and very kind staff! Strongly recommended!

Food is good, not massive portions, which is good for me! Clean. Friendly service, reasonably priced.

It was amazing the staff are lovely and the karaoke nights are amazing. They boasted my confidence up and I can’t wait to next go in. The food was incredible and worth what you pay for. I would deffo recommend this to anyone who is local

Was good, quick service and food went down a treat

Nice food, quick service and good value

Great service always go to Boythorpe Fryer

I have been recently and there food was divine my husband tried the fish and kebab and said it was the best fish he had ever had will definitely be going again

Not very good tonight chips and the savloys where col

would have given 5 stars but the chips could have been cooked a little longer and we were 3 mins down the road and it was all only just warm we put it all in the air fryer saveloy was warmed in the microwave it was stone cold went in the bin we don't reheat pork shame hadn't had one for years was looking forward to it

Lovely food friendly staff not overpriced

Awful food micro cheese and onion pie just mush no filling at all plus chips that were brown and raw inside . Changed owners and they definitely need to sort out the cooking. Hardly hard to cook that . Plus full English sausages no idea what they were very lacking plus just cheap and nasty

Great food at very reasonable prices

Always good food and a great atmosphere from the staffs pleasant greeting could not recommend them enough

Food is always deelish, service is quick, friendly and with a smile. Very reasonable prices.

New to the area and really fancied fish n chips. They were good, the burgers were pretty good. Will be going there again

Friendly & helpful staff, along with amazing food has always.

Nice food reasonable prices smaller portions but

First chipshop in Chesterfield that cooks food properly. Batter is lighr and crispy, not soggy. Good variety. Scampi curry is great.

Fish cake was inedible & fish & chips were accompanied with a mouldy lemon, so the whole meal went in the bin. If it had not been for the fact that we would have had to walk all the way back after a very long day at work, we would have taken the whole lot back & asked for a refund. However we won’t be returning. Pity we weren’t able to post the photos we took on here of the mouldy food.

The food is nice .... reasonable price plus it's a decent fish and chip shop.

Stopped off for some chips in the way home from a night out trick or trearing with the children, gave the kids some sweets each and the chips were really good when we got home.

Horrendous lunch. Ordered meat and potato pie with mushy peas. After 40 minutes in an empty pub the food arrived, we got garden peas that were cold, accompanied by luke warm pie and cold gravy. The 'meat'in the pie was disgusting more fat than meat which was too tough to eat anyway. Sent the food back and got a refund. Ended up with a bag of mini cheddars for lunch. As a regular customer for 40 years this is it we won't be returning!

Excellent fish and chips - fresh, well cooked and delicious! Very nicely presented and the fresh lemon and tartar sauce was a great addition. Staff members are extremely friendly - your kindness after a long day cleaning up after the flood was truly welcome. I will definitely be back 😀

Best fish and chips I've eaten in a long time. Reasonably priced, good portions, staff very friendly and helpful.

Lovely food and generous portions. Very helpful staff.

Having lunched here several times our last visit was not good at all. The service and food availability was poor and we returned today with some trepidation. However couldn't fault anything. Very attentive customer service and excellent food. We definitely will return - thanks to Debbie

Just moved into the area & so glad to have found this amazing Chippy! Friendly service & staff that care. Nice little touches like lemon wedge & tartare sauce with the fish & buttered bread cobs. Perfect chips, beautiful fish & the best fish cakes I have ever had. The Boythorpe Fryer is the best chippy in Chesterfield.

On this occasion the portion size was a bit small for a regular more like small, but will go agai.

Absolutely best fish I had in a long time, yes I will be back here, excellent.

Really great fish and chips. Friendly and efficient service. Would definitely recommend.

Always friendly, service is good, food always nice.

Never have I had fish this nice. Crispy batter firm fish. Too many chips in a portion though.

Nice food, chips seem to be cooked in different oil from fish. Didn't have to wait long to be served on Friday night.

I would say the best fish and chips by far

Visited The Boythorpe last night for food and we both chose the chicken and mushroom pie on the specials menu. As soon as our food was brought to us we were offered an additional gravy boat but there was plenty on the plate. The pie contained lots of filling and they hadn’t scrimped on the chicken. The chef came out to see if the food was OK. Excellent food at reasonable prices. We will be returning.

Best fish and chips in town, my only moan is they run out of their mushy peas too often.

Food was good but 5 pieces of scampy, a few chips and a spoonful of peas for £8.95 was disappointing. Definitely not value for money....tiny portion.

Cracking chippy, my go to for that fish n chips fix.

Plenty of fish and chips cooked to perfection

5*+ Do a banging pineapple fritter, chips always perfect. Great childrens meals too & always amazing service.

Amazing atmosphere Awsome people and lovely staff the food Is 10/10 would really recommend to anyone

I ordered large Haddock and mushy peas. The fish was cooked to order and was coated in the lightest,crispiest batter. No soggy layer of raw batter between the fish and the crispy batter..........Delicious. lovely hot proper mushy peas. I bought Yorkshire fishcakes for mother(not easily pleased) and she said it too was delicious.

Great chippy with lots of options... Nice curry to

Enjoyed a great family meal for 10 people at the Boythorpe, so pleased it is serving food again. Boythorpe burger & Hunters chicken highly recommended.

Nice battered sausage and chips and Gravy! 😋

Yummy yummy for the last 22 years I have known them

Have now been 3 times since Debbie and her team tool over. Food is brilliant value for money and the service is excellent . Will continue to support Debbie and her team. PLEASE give it a try.

We used to visit regularly before Covid but it went downhill after that. Been a few times this year, great food, good prices and brilliant staff. I would recommend you give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

A Big Thankyou to you all for supporting Nurse’s today who stood on Walton picket line to support all Nurse’s who joined in strike action today, your chips & fish fritter was much appreciated in the cold ❤️ Xx

Called in for a meal, had an all day breakfast, husband had a Boythorpe Burger with home made chips. The portions were generous. Both meals were delicious, staff were attentive and checked we had all we needed. I would say call in and see for your self.

Great food is better than our local

Very good staff, I phoned in an order for our walking group and was ready on collection. Great food and brilliant service.

Fancied something hot for dinner on a cold wet day like today, Was recomended the boythorpe fryer by a friend, i normally use union jack or duke street. Glad i did, friendly greeting, order mini fish specail mixed curry n pea n hot chilli dauce, wrapped in a polystrene tray n paper. Got back to site, still lovely and hot, fish was very fresh and of good size for a fish bite chips tasty good to. Very nice, thank you team boythorpe like Arnie says, ill be back!

Usually excellent but chips were sharp scratchy bits not at all fleshy potato.

Excellent fish&chips,good prices.

They no longer do food so update your site, no point having a review site for a pub that does not serve food

We had a great fish and chips from here. Fish batter was crispy and the fish seemed fresh. The chips were also good. Our kids has scampi which was very much enjoyed. Service was with a smile.

The cheesecake was out of this world fantastic!!

Great chippy, lovely fish 'n chips and the chicken kebabs are glorious!! Staff are lovely too, they always make you feel welcome. Give it a try!!

Brilliant fish and chip shop. Good prices.

Great friendly staff and great fish @chips

Best fish and chips in Chesterfield

Very nice fish but the chips were undercooked

Good traditional chippy. Fair prices.

We have chips Fridays at work from here consistently great food lovely staff.

Not a good experience 😕 😞 under cooked chips / raw and a very soggy bread cob

Brilliant chippy, good always fantastic and really friendly

Can't fault what we had and nice friendly staff 👍

Great chips but staff need a maths lesson. Tried to give me the wrong change twice in separate occasions by the same lady. 🤦

Only had the chips as vegan, but happy to hear they are vegan and have a dedicated fryer to the chips which are cooked in vegetable oil! Tasted good as well!

Clean and tidy place, inside and outside. Plenty of space for people inside waiting and for cars outside. Good prices, fair service time. Food isn't bad. Good deals available.

Was mediocre, think it's gone down hill alot. Chip where hardly cooked, battered sausage was extremely crispy. Didn't look to clean when we went in. The kids menu sign that up looks disgustingly dirty. Won't be going back. Expecting quantity food and got cr*p.

Have recommended so many times. . Bitterly disappointed tonight...Asked for a crispy chicken breast....did not get one...they admitted it wasn't crispy so gave me 2. Both were soggy ....and charged me for both. Massive let down

When for two large cod only had small ones so they gave us two small ones to make up for not having any large ones so we got four the price of two large one David

No change in till women serving giving attitude chips whiter than snow and more water in peas than sea

Fabaroonia :) Lovely place. Lovely vibe :) very friendly staff. The place is clean, pool table, nice beer garden. Good selection of food :) Date of visit: July 2021

Really nice owners/ staff and the food is good. Need to stay open a little later tho

Best fish n chips I've ever had yum

Very good fish and chips for over 20 years.consistantly good.curry to dye for.allwayes stop there when passing.everybody local knows.

Tried Boythorpe Fryer for the first time this evening. Although they were about to close (8.30pm) fresh fish and chips were cooked for us. Friendly staff. The fish was amazing - fresh, beautifully flaky and really tasty. Great chips too-not at all greasy! We will be back!

Great chippy, Food is amazing as are the staff who I can't praise high enough, I was on the way home late at night from work wet through due to the rain, went in to get some chips and because it was about to close they gave me extra, fishcakes, chips and potato fritters all because I was freezing and soaked but wouldn't take extra money as it was going to be binned, definitely go see them and you'll be supporting local small businesses, which is never a bad thing.

This 'plaice', was beyond all my expectations, over recent years 'chippies' seem to be profit driven, micro pies, cheap spuds and terrible peas/gravy. NOT THIS PLACE, ABSOLUTELY EXCEPTIONAL. They understand that quality is utmost and people will flood back. Be prepared to queue but it's REALLY REALLY worth it. 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋

It was ok but fish cooked to quickly. Crispy outer but still wet inside

Excellent customer service and great portions

BRING RUBY BACK!!! Customer service is getting worse, really missing the friendliness of this chip shop. Female owner snappy and rude. Chips cold this evening but fish was nice.

Ordered through phone and was ready on time

Birll fish and chips and good for specials good price as well

Lovely fish and chips. Best in Chesterfield

Lovely food pleasant helpful staff

Had chips and curry ...definitely the best curry I have ever had 😉

Perfect fish chips, Always friendly, nothing to much trouble, Always clean and well organised

Always a friendly service and the best cod n chips in Chesterfield.

I have lived in Chesterfield all my life and everything about the Boythorpe Fryer is excellent. The staff are lovely the food is excellent. Without doubt the best fish and chips in the area. Once tried you will not go anywhere else

Good food fast service and friendly staff

Really good generous portions, good value, very tasty. My partner qualified for the senior meal deal (he's 60) he was a little disappointed that they didn't check his ID (lol, obviously looks his age) but his 3 courses for £7.49 was far from disappointing. Will definitely return. Thank you 👍
