The Chip thief in Teignbridge

Arrived for 4pm opening. We're sure the chips were not fresh and gf fish over cooked. Didn't realise until we got back to the holiday camp to eat! Very disappointed.

Great little chippy. They do gluten free options which is unusual for a chip shop. The food we had was lovo.

Chicken nuggets had a nice crispy coating and the chips were great - perfect portion size too. Staff were all lovely and service was great.

Ive got to admit i did have a problem with the chips in the past, but my goodness its most definitely the best fish and chips in dawlish.

Came from the west midlands for holiday. And I must say the fish and chips was fresh and curry sauce was excellent..100% recommend this chip shop.

Fish and chips are a rare treat for me now due to health reasons but a treat in a while is something to look forward to , The fish and chips from here have done me a favour , they were so disappointing I won’t be wanting them again in a long time . Thin scrappy chips , Greasy crunchy batter covering thin squashy fish .

Used this place twice while on holiday at Dawlish Sands. Nice little friendly chippie shop. Good food at reasonable prices. Gets very busy which shows how popular it is.

Chips wasn't that crispy, fish wasn't very white but overall a nice tasting meal along with good prices

Good quality fish & chips with fast service. The curry sauce was tastier than usual.

Busy fish and chips shop but the food was good. There are gluten free options too which was nice to see. Gets pretty busy, but worth the wait for a traditional meal.

We had Cod and Chips with mushy peas on the 26th August and it was all beautiful. Large chips between us was plenty and the Cod was beautifully cooked, certainly the best at the Warren.

The portion sizes were small and then I had to throw half of the chips away because of how black they were. They were cooked to order so I’m unsure how and why the food tasted so old and greasy? Wouldn’t return. Deans place a little further on is much better and fresh big portions

We visited for fish and chips and battered sausage on a sunny evening. Perfectly cooked and came in a nice paper bag so we could keep the beach tidy after we had eaten. Throughly delicious

Really tasty fish and chip supper. We had plaice and haddock which were beautifully crispy and tasted just as they should. Congratulations.

The best fish n chips in Dawlish Warren absolutely spot on just as you would expect from the sea side.

Finally a chippy in Dawlish that sells cod roe. 😍

Nice options you can choose from! Friendly staff and delicious food 😋

Great food ,great service and a good price and also cater for people on a gluten free diet

Have been here a few times, as we visit Dawlish Warren every year. Always excellent, but I have to say the jumbo battered sausage, chips and curry sauce, we got about 6pm on Saturday, was the best ever. Thank you.

We visit Dawlish Warren every year, and always visit the Chip Thief, and it is always good. We went on Saturday night, about 6pm,and got three lots of jumbo battered sausage,chips and curry sauce. Have to say it was the best ever, so thank you very much.

This is the best fish & chip shop in Dawlish warren the fish are huge and the chip was delicious definitely worth a visit 10/10

Super friendly staff, great food.

I have been to this take out a few times love the last couple of years. The service has always been brilliant and the food excellent. Cooked to order and not a problem on the waiting time. The people who run it are totally honest, great service.

Paid £24 for 2 large cod along with 1 portion of chips and 1 small tub of mushy peas the fish was perfect, but was sadly let down by the chips which were very poor quality, although the portion size was large enough the chips themselves were very small lots of burnt bits and not very hot, overall only 6 out of ten, will not be returning.

Great fish and chips and great prices, worth the wait when they are busy.

Not eaten from here yet just uploading recent menu prices

Genuinely might be the best fish and chips I’ve had.

Amazing, best fish and chips ive ever had

Food was lovely but ordered large & regular fish & they were both same size. Also ordered chips separately &, they put them both with fish which meant as my husband doesn't like fish he couldn't eat them.

Excellent place! I organised a school trip to Dawlish Warren. We ordered over 60 portions for the children in advance. The place was very accommodating and had everything ready for us when we arrived. They even helped to carry the food over into the Green for the children. Good food, friendly staff. I would definitely recommend it.

Amazing cod and chips. Super friendly team. Cater for those needing a gluten free diet with great care.

Beautiful fish with light crispy batter chips are great too

Omg the fish was amazing from this place amazing kids deal and prices very fair food was amazing only thing but not a major grumble was gave curry saurce instead of gravy but not put off amazing

Amazing food look at the size of this bit of fish, food was cooked fresh amazing kids deals very well enjoyed i uploaded a photo only down side given curry not gravy but i wont grumble for quality of food thank you all

Had cod chips and curry sauce from here tonight omg it was gorgeous fish was fresh... batter light and chips just how i like them and the best curry sauce ive tasted in years

Chips thin live 5 min away but just warm bu y the time I got home

The fish was some of the best I've ever had. The lads who served us were really nice and polite

Clean and lovely staff and the food tasted great and good sized portions

Very slow service,small portion sizes,food was not very hot sat hanging around in wormer

Best fish and chips I've ever had 5*+

Ordered a range of things from the menu and all of it was delicious and generously portioned but the chips and curry sauce were particularly brilliant.

Very well cooked and generous portion of std cod and chips.

Best fish and chips I've ever had and the curry sauce was amazing! friendly and polite staff and very clean and organised. Definitely recommend 🌟.

First time tonight getting food from the chip their myself and husband were very impressed. Batter is thin and light chips spot on and curry sauce amazing. Both chaps very polite and welcoming.

Ordered regular chips with a jumbo sausage and curry sauce chips were nice however portion size very very small couldn’t feed a 2 year old regular chips and you can see half of the bottom of the box ; knew it would be a small portion when the person serving shakes the box

The chip thief is one of my family’s favourite local restaurants / takeaways - the food is always delicious and the staff are very friendly. It’s also easily accessible and there is some free parking spots right outside so there’s no excuse not to stop for some chips 😁 It gets very busy and popular in summertime and although it closes for a short period period in winter , we always look forward to going again when it reopens - a fantastic local chip shop 🍟

Website says open every day. Went there on a Monday only to find its closed. Sign on window says only open Wednesday- Saturday. Again website says 4:30 opening but again not open till 5. Seems to be open whenever they want to.

Best chip shop around here, worth the drive from Dawlish.

We were staying in Dawlish warren so went here to get our evening fish and chips. Service was a bit slow, but the fish and chips were amazing. Would not hesitate in returning if we were in the area again. Highly recommended

On holiday looking for some fish and chips, tried this establishment and it was fantastic, food great and fish top quality

£3.50 for what they call a large portion of chips is a joke. Barely enough to feed a small child ive had to go back out and get another bag elsewhere to feed 2 of us. Disgusting portion sizes.

We haven't eaten there yet. So I can't give you a proper review.👍👍

First time here, tried all in Dawlish, this is tastier, will definitely come here again

Came here around 25 to 9 and got chips and a large sausage. Piping hot and absolutely delicious. The server(A young blonde lad) asked if I wanted salt and vinegar and put some in before closing and shaking the box (which is a must to distribute the salt and vinegar). Walked down to the sea wall where I sat and ate, still hot, non soggy chips, I would definetly visit again.

Really, really nice chips.. but to wait 20mins is beyond the joke, come on its not difficult to serve. 1 star for service

Excellent quality recommend this chip 🍟 shop 👌

Food was over cooked but chips and the curry sauce was lovely

Very good fish and chips. Hugh portions. Always a queue outside.

Lovely chips highly recommended 👌

Best chippy in the area by some way, and also far cheaper than those closer to the holiday sites.

We had beautiful cod from here last year, but alas, this year I have paid for two large cod, that were literally 50% batter. Now I am not stupid, I know there is a cost of living squeeze (which is why I understand the small price increase from last year, but just look at the photo). Not a happy bunny and won't be returning, overpriced and definitely overhyped.

Always quite busy, you place your order and wait outside for your number to be called, doesn't take long. Rated by my son as the best chips and jumbo sausage in dawlish warren

Food was good but the service time and food portions were not that great for the price quit stingy on the chips

Lovely fish and chips. Was very busy when we ordered so took around 20 mins but was definitely worth the wait.

Food always good, gets busy and long wait times if you go at peak times in summer. 4-4.30PM seems best for quietest early times to avoid longer queues, quietens down later. Best chippy in Dawlish Warren.

Really good food, reasonably priced as well. Would definitely recommend.

Very busy chip shop good service lovely fish and chips best we have had in a very long time

Wonderful chippy. Great and delicious food, cooked to order, prices reasonable. We had no complaints

We'd heard good things and we're not disappointed. Friendly team, great service, the food was served fresh and hot, perfect portion sizes. Will definitely be back 🥰

Not the worst fish and chips but far from the best. Really couldn't understand the 20 minute wait. There were 25+ people who had queued and paid and just waiting to collect food but they seemed to be frying one order at a time !

Superb large fish and chips. Cod was cooked to perfection

I'm so pleased to see a vegan friendly chip shop x we loved very mouthful the curry sauce is emmence

Good to see a company that knows about gluten free cooking and everything is cooked separately from the normal fish, Recommend.

Turned up at 6.55pm on a Tuesday night. Waited 20 mins for a large chips costing £3.50. They have never been a large chip. I would say a small chips at best, in a box. Walking back to the campsite we decided that there would never be enough. So called into Warren chippy and ordered regular chips which we got straight away for £2.60 and got double the amount. Also what I would call proper chip shop chips. The chip thief certainly lives by its name. Won’t be going back. The few chips we got weren’t great either!

Really nice freshly cooked food

I'm fussy,but these chips were lovely.batter on fish was a bit too crispy,but I loved the meal.5*

Very expensive for poor quality

Food was not good and we ended up with food poison, I would not visit this shop ever again.

Food nowhere near usual standard fish over cooked and chips very poor. Usually very good meal.

Gorgeous food however I'd say it's a little pricey but none the less very tasty

First of two fantastic blokes giving great service. The chippy looked like it was short staffed much like most places at the moment advertising for staff. We order a large order and everything was great aside I felt the fish wasn’t the best I’ve have. By far not the worst fish so please don’t be put off overall a great chippy

Good fish and chip shop that we used on the way back from the beach to our accommodation. Even the small fish and chips is generous, crispy batter and plenty of chips. definitely worth a visit

Food was good, fish was excellent and very tasty. Chips are good, probably have some of your own salt and vinegar ready as they don't use much vinegar. You pay for sauce

Great batter on fish! Really tasty

Massive portions and nice modern facilities. However, the chips were scraps of chips. The end bits. The longest we found was 2cm. All of the chip bits had black marks or eyes. It was as though they used all the bits that would normally/should be thrown away. The fish was huge, but again, the batter was chewy, thick and very dark. When the batter was removed the fish was very dry as though it had been under ights for too long. Very disappointed! Won't be going back!

Not the best. Expensive. Large chips very small. Fish quality low small in size ok if your into batter. Name of shop very suited

Excellent fish and chips, fast service, reasonable prices. Highly recommended

Food freshly cooked so you have to wait but well worth it, thanks to all the staff at "The Chip Thief"

Edible but not good. More batter than fish and not flaky like cod used to be from here (everytime we came to welcome Family we use it) . Small amount of chips for a large portion as well. Spent £40 and unfortunately won't be spending it here again. Nice staff tho!

Very quick service,and fresh food. Never been disappointed,my go to place when in Dawlish Warren.

Great freshly cooked food worth waiting for

Food worth waiting for. EXCELLENT fish and chips. Service good. Could do with bench outside while you wait.

Probably the worst fish we've had for a while, thick hard batter slither of over cooked cod inside. Very poor

Absolutely banging food. The guys are really sweet and polite and have great customer service in a clearly busy chip shop. I literally drive to Dawlish Warren, just for their food 😁 #Loveit

Excellent fish and chips.... perfectly cooked fish with thin, crispy batter. Not greasy at all. Very well priced children's meals as well.

Quite a wait with the orders but always cooked fresh. Fair portions.

Went to Devon for a weekend break. The Chip Thief did not disappoint. It was amazing, even the children loved it. I didn't think any Chip shop could beat Dad's Lane in Birmingham, but the Chip Thief is definitely a place to eat. I ate there on more than two occasions. The fish is yummy 😋, and the children's meals are value for money! Thank you for your customer service and amazing food.

Good chippy but you get lots of chip bits Fish is outstanding No parking so walking is recommended

Ordered a standard size portion of chips with jumbo battered sausage and that's what I got! Good size portion of chips for the money, nicely cooked and not soaking with oil but not dry, either. The service was excellent; friendly and polite. Hygiene and tidiness was good, too. I would definitely recommend 👌

Lad behind the counter promised me I'd be back because their food was so damn good.......and it was pretty damn good!
