The Chippy in Antrim

Thursday deal - 'chicken spacer.' It honestly took ages to be prepared, but it was worth the weight! And great price. =o)

Absolutely terrible food I don’t know what has happened this place??? Will never be back! Fish was so hard disgusting, burger also awful and kebab ridiculous left overs from night before. Chips were not freshly made. Do not waste your money here!

The worst fish and chips I’ve ever had, I was furious when I opened them up,my partner and I were shocked to say the least, what a disgusting thing at the price, I can safely say I will never be back in the place again.

Delicious food - chips sausages steak burger all the trimmings. Very quick service great quality and value for money

Very long wait,for microwaved rubbish

I'm not sure if that was the worst fish supper I've ever had, but it was certainly a strong contender. Nearly two hours after ordering on the app, it arrived and by that stage I'd have eaten it, even if it was the number one worst. The chips would have been ok if they weren't all stuck together and huddling for warmth at the bottom of the box. The cod, tiny though he was, was bravely protecting the wee chips by wearing a suit of armour cleverly disguised as batter. I know about this because I nearly broke my teeth trying to take a bite of it. It wouldn't have been so bad if there was even a decent bit of fish inside the industrial strength batter jacket, but you would get more fish in a Captain Birdseye fish finger. I rarely do reviews or complaints and I wasn't expecting the best fish supper of my life, and I know Saturday evening is busy and things cool down while they're waiting on delivery, but I have to say I was truly disappointed by this offering and would be very unlikely to return to what used to be a good chippy.

Ordered 2 sphinx kebabs and a sphinx chip and paid online in the region of £30. When I called to collect 15 mins early, staff knew nothing about my order. Staff tried to put order together . Not even vaguely what was expected. I have had kebabs from Sphinx, Stranmillis Road for nearly 40 years. Such a disappointment! Will never be back in Chippy/Sphinx Antrim. Totally shocking!

The Chippy has the best tasting food in the whole area. Staff are very friendly. I personally wouldn't go anywhere else for my takeaway

Bought the Sphinx kebab with chips £11.20 the chips had a few rubbery texture in some of them and a few hard bits as if they weren't cooked fully. It was more in the large chips. Had to eat the smaller ones. The meat was ok and the sauce was nice, but definitely not worth the price...to expensive. The positive was the the staff very pleasant & polite.

What has happened to the “award winning” fish and chips ? This was the second time I have purchased fish and chips only to find the fish was sparse and grossly overcooked and the batter so hard it was difficult to bite. Fortunately the chips were fine but £11.50 is a bit too much for a portion of chips! I won’t be back and would also suggest others who enjoy good fish and chips search elsewhere.

Food was actually nice however the woman they have serving and taking orders definitely needs to be sent on a customer service course, her attitude stinks no manners whatsoever. Extremely rude and unfortunately for this reason I will not be back.

Have to say it failed to live up to its reputation. Went for a hangover cure and was extremely disappointed. The chips were under cooked and soft, the pink pastie was extremely greasy, the chicken goujons were skimpy. Hugely disappointing. Maybe just a bad day?

Ordered via their app, which seems to have completely inaccurate allergy notices. My £15 food came an hour and a half after I ordered it, everything was cold and hard (couldn’t eat any of it at all, borderline inedible), and came with a curry pot with a handwritten note of “might have milk or eggs” when app said it didnt (I had told them not to include if it did as I am allergic). Rotten service. Was told a manager would phone me about it and they never did. Don’t bother going waste of money, other locals nicer and also cheaper.

Catherine and I hadn’t been for a “chippy” treat for 18 months, so when Catherine suggested let’s go and get a chippy, we decided to pick the chippy in Antrim and eat it at the Lough, (corny I know) but it’s the pensioner thing to do 😂, anyway, she went in to pick up our telephone order, I parked outside and didn’t turn the car off because we had ordered via technology, a tank off diesel later she appeared £18 worse off, and we headed to eat our spoils, we parked opened the wrapping and ……… what a disappointment, the fish batter was outing grease, as was the batter on the chicken burger, the chips were limp, we couldn’t eat what we had been served, OMG, what has happened to the Chippy, needless to say we will vote with our feet and we won’t be back.

being coming here over 35 years, Best chippy around

Beautiful fresh food..love the chicken goujons so tasty and plenty of it..staff always lovely

The real railway burger not as seen plus 3 chicken strips as a portion joke and a sausage 2 sauce 25 pound rip off

Overpriced. Cod was mainly batter. Extremely long wait for 2 chips and cod.

Shocking!! £17 for what looked like a kids meal. Wouldn't have filled my child either 🫣. Chicken was so dry!!!

£4.70 for this "large" chip. I think they have been cooked 6 times aswell. The seagulls were'nt even fussed on them.

Stopped in at weekend really fancied a fish supper but what a disappointment fish looked good size but about an inch both ends was purely batter overall the batter was thick and greasy. You can get much better fish in other establishments. Sorry won't be back

Sausage and Chips £7 way way too expensive and way way too small. Won't be back.

Was very disappointed with tonight meal no fish cake for a start and was 20 min wait if we wanted one and then got two portion of chips and for £4.40 each they where tiny sorry to say I won’t be back my advice if you want a good portion size for your money go elsewhere.

Went in ordered food 5 people came in after me stood 25 min everyone else had got there food asked lady behind counter about my order was a bit abrupt would not be going back

My fav place.. Best chips in NI

Food was ok but far too expensive over priced in my opinion.

Had a christmas chippy out of here and it was a treat! Would deffo recommend this to anyone looking to try this take on different kinds of chips. I will be going back to try something else for sure.

I have had food a few times and is always good, but it is time that they put in better staff the waiting time is a joke l, had to wait 30 to 40 minutes for a hamburger. I will see if I go back because i don't always have 30 or 40 minutes to wait for my food

Got a takeaway for the family and it was delicious. Loved it all!! Food and service ace. Thanks

Price is extortionate. Gravy chip and 2 sausages £9.25 gravy chip had few chips with the rest being crispy ends

Overpriced overrated staff need a lesson in customer service !! Waited an hour on a telephone order which was sittin ready in shop !! Food was freezin and when complaint was made the smug lookin employee shugged his shoulder and asked wot I wanted him to do !!! Will not be back !! £16:45 for a kebab !!! Joke

Called in for a portion of nuggets and chips for son who doesn't eat the pizza we were getting from pizza the action. Service was very slow with only one lady taking orders and preparing orders to hand out. It took just over 20 mins for my order. Since a portion of chips was £4.40 I expected a decent amount of chips however the bag of chips was very small. It was smaller than a small chip from my usual chippy which costs £1 less. I won't be back and I definitely will be telling others to boycott.

Go and get the chicken spacer meals it's just great and chips are super

Way too expensive for batch frozen chippy meals. Nothing is freshly battered. I would understand if they were trying to batch cook in order to save time during busy hours but the place was dead. Cutting corners and charging an arm and a leg for it.

Waiting nearly an hour for food even though the order was for two people don't think I'd rush back

Having been recommended to go. Got the fish supper. Disappointed the fish was frozen. Very thin, have to say it was a good size. The batter was thicker than the fish. Have to say was a poor choice will pick somewhere else the next time.

The guy who took the order was more interested in a conversation he was having with another member of staff and got the order wrong. For a family of three we found the food extremely expensive it was £41.00 for three fish suppers, one garlic mayonnaise, chilli mayonnaise and a sprite. The batter of the fish was hard and greasy and the fish was of poor quality and the chips were small and tasteless. It was extremely disappointing. If you're going to charge big price you need to get your act together. You don't even deserve one star. Does anyone read the reviews because the amount of complaints on Tripadvisor is ridiculous. 👎

The prices they are charging are ridiculous and if they are charging this amount of money, I expected the food to be five star, the fish supper we got was stoggy and the batter was hard. I would not recommend The Chippy in Antrim thumb 👎

Went in today for lunch and got a "2 sausage and chips" lunch deal. Got that and a BPM which came to £8.50 all in, seems very expensive for a small lunch meal. Now the 2 sausages and chips were put in one of the small tin containers that you would get fried rice in from a chinese. Chips were all squashed down and portion very small considering the 2 sausages were in there too. I was standing for about 5 minutes before someone took my order, thought this was a bit rough as there was nobody else in line. Two ladies after me also took some time to be served, probably just as long, if not longer than me. Food took around 20 minutes to be ready, again this seems quite a long time for some standard sausage and chips. The food was decent enough because I ate it straight away, I imagine if you had a drive home the chips would quickly become soggy. The curry I got was completely brown and nothing like the usual curry you would expect from a chippy. Maybe just an off day there but hard to tell. Overall experience was pretty poor to be honest. Would recommend you go around the corner to the Arcade or Rolos if you are after a quick bite to eat for lunch.

Took 20 mins to get 2 fish and a chips. Fish were small for nearly £7 and batter was like armour! Chips were nice but £4.40 for a small portion. Go elsewhere

This was the most disappointing part about my visit to Belfast. Over priced, stingy portions and sloooooooow service. The food wasn’t even nice. Anyone rating this 5* clearly hasn’t left norn iron!

Brilliant food. Quick and efficient. Kebabs r to die for

Extremely expensive, but gave it a try thinking maybe portions would be sizeable. Unfortunately portions were smaller than my usual village chippy and twice the price 😕 definitely will never return or recommend to anyone 😕 £37.20 for 4 dinner and one was just a portion of chicken goujon

This chippy are quite honestly robbing customers. £38 for food for 4 people. Considering two of those are small children and one adult only wanted a chip. Portion sizes are absolutely abysmal, chips served in a small paper bag. When ordering a cheese chip or similar, they turn the boxes upside down, filling what should be the lid, with a tiny scoop of chips. I cannot believe the audacity this place has, serving mediocre, over priced food. Will never be returning.

Unreal goujon meal. Quality food. Friendly service.

Food was pretty good but it is extremely expensive. Literally just as expensive as going out for food in some of the restaurants in the same town.

Very good chippy food and service.

Def need to train ur staff on customer service. Sour face who take the orders slabbers to other staff members when your standing there. When u ask where ur order is after waiting for nearly 25 mins. And other ppl who came after u get there stuff before u. App a burgers take shorter to cook than 4 sausages 😂😂 won't be back. Given them a few stars as have to say sausages were hot but the rest of the stuff cold. Shocking

Good food, bit pricier than others, but get what you pay for.

Great chippy. We would be regularly getting lunches or dinner from here. I work local so hot lunch is handy. We also get the odd family chippy supper and have had some very filling meals. The staff are all excellent, especially the lady Maureen who serves at the counter she is really nice and very helpfull. I have seen her being patient and informative when people are struggling with what to have. Also witnessed her being patient in the face of some cheeky ones too. She gets 5 stars ⭐.

Placed an order on the app 30 minutes before I arrived in and she said the order just came through when I said the order number which is lies, they only just paid attention to it and then I had to wait another 40 minutes for the food to be ready and the workers don’t hurry themselves at all they like to stand about and talk more than cook

Poor quality food for the price.

Nicest chippy I have had for quite a while. The chicken fillet burger was huge, very tasty and well cooked. Staff were friendly and while it was a bit expensive (like most takeaways now), I would definitely order food from here again.

Decent food Paid £28 for 2 meals waited over an Hour for delivery and forgot dip for a Goujon meal and forgot salad for a Kebab

Ordered pastie supper and curried chip, came to £12.90. Won’t buy from here again, too expensive and food mediocre.

Well, I’m not sure we are reviewing the same Chippy 🤔. My son (who is the pickiest eater imaginable) recons this is the best Chippy in the area, as a result I have to drive into Antrim (don’t live there) to collect his burger and chips. I always phone my order in on my way back from work, which negates any problem with waiting times. The staff, without exception, have always been friendly and polite, but the over-riding point is that the food is always great! Perhaps try again when your having a better day. 🤩

Travel 15 miles to the chippy the service and craic and welcoming atmosphere is top class. Maureen in particular always consistent with the best service. 👍

The worst chip shop i have been too in a very long time. The menu is very difficult to understand and is listed poorly. When ordering they had very few options and although listing a lot of options they have only around half of what they list. The staff were the most rude, ignorant, and unhelpful humans to grace my path. When asked about items on the menu they straight up refused to answer and said to "just hurry up". I was with my mother at the time and she ordered before me, when she got her food first and left, the staff started calling her rude names and insulted her because she asked for forks. They got our food orders wrong, for example when someone ordered "a kabab meal with salad" they got chicken on chips with only lettuce. The food is also insanely overpriced, especially for how mediocre it is. Over all, rude, overpriced, bad at their job, average food

Can't really say anything bad about this wee chippy. Never had a bad meal out of it. Fish I got last visit was perfection. A long term business still doing a great job and to top it all still affordable.

I went for cod and a soft drink. The cod was good but there was lots of oily batter that I removed. Drinks at £2.50 were overpriced compared to other similar outlets.

The 'cod' I ordered and paid a hefty sum for was not cod. The chips were hard and the gravy wasn't like chippy gravy, it tasted overwhelmingly of gravy granules. The older lady behind the counter was very curt and had no pleasantries about her. A very underwhelming experience that I won't be repeating. Parkhall Chippy is much better.

Just got a Irish stake kebab that was cooked in the microwave the whole this about the gyros is to be cut and served from the wheel it's slef not in microwave and asked. For no sauce to be put on it woman with glasses at till doesn't listen to you at all and it's definitely not sphinxs at all not happy will not be back it's given sphinxs in Belfast a bad name

Best chicken fillet burger I’ve had in ages 😊😊😊

I won't lie the food is good but most occasions that I ordered something from here I'm normally waiting hours I have no problem with wait an hour or two. I also understand that there busy but if your going to give me a time of when it will be at my location please stick by what your saying, I wouldn't have made this review because I do genuinely like the food but the wait times are the real killer for this business if you ever going to to order from here make sure it's a collection, I also might add that every time I order from here the employee's are always very nice and well mannered but please try to fix this issue that me and a few others are having.

To many things wrong with order

My meal was so greasy it smelt and tasted of old oil

Expensive small portions and staff not friendly

Amazing customer service and great food friendly customers too wouldnt get it anywhere else👌

Ordered a kebab with no salad or onions came with salad and onions phoned to say and was told they would send another one out. It came and it's exactly the same. Not happy. We order from here nearly every week won't be ordering again!!

I'd rate it as the best chippy in Antrim town.

Ordered online. easy site to use. friendly staff. food tasted great, not greasy. would buy from here again

Probably the best chippy in the town, but the prices and delivery times are shocking. Fiver for a cheese chip :0

Oh I love the chips from Mr Chippy and my fella Chuka loved the fish suppers ..I always looked forward to going to Antrim on a weekly basis to eat here.👌

Fantastic chippy with a great selection of food. Friendly staff. Love the chicken spacer

Ordered dinner at 17.20 and told it would be an hour, 18.40 I phoned to see where it was, I was told it would be another half an hour - food is usually ok, but the service is appalling, even when you go to collect it, it’s never ready when they say it’s gonna be. How can it take nearly two hours for chips to be delivered???? Think I’d be better going elsewhere, service let’s it down everytime.

5 star Chicken Goujons just how they are supposed to be

Battered burger supper which was very greasy and I received a look of disgust for ordering a milkshake later when I noticed them for sale. I'll be sticking to The Arcade and Rolo's from now on.

Food and staff are fantastic. Wouldn't go anywhere else

Quick service went to loughshore with burgers and chips.delicious. sprite and lemon Fanta in bottles. All remained hot for eating..

Good service good food comfortable

Nicest cod bites meal I have ever had. Alittle dear but its worth it

Chips were great but the small cheesey chip was 3x bigger than the large chips and salt and vinegar was only at the top.

Very nice place to go for food first class

Good food but very slow on collection.

I have been using this chippy for years but tonight service and not the first time either has been the worst I ordered early evening to give plenty of time to prepare for my so called dinner at 8.30 pm rang 9.05pm to see where my order was told over the phone that it’s just left and it be there soon but am sitting writing this at 9.55pm !!! And still no dinner disgraceful I do not appreciate being lied to I won’t be using this service again do better please !!!!!!!

Over 16 pound for 2 chips and 2 bottles

Food is okay, delivery man (bald, blue car) smoking around food bag etc.

Hawaiian burger, not bad done the job.

Brilliant service the app is very quick

Over priced for the quanity of food you recieve

Could never get one better as for staff Amazing they are the creme del a creme love you guys Kate from Railway St

For the price I expected better quality or portions, It’s an incredibly overpriced chippy with bog standard food. Avoid!

Best chippy in the town hands down. Everything cooked fresh and everything on the menu is great. Would highly recommend if ur in Antrim and looking a chippy

Have been going here quite a while food is always good but phoned my order in on Saturday evening quite early when I arrived there was 7 people in the shop whereas the sign says 4.my curry chip was almost cold and my husband go their box with cocktails and chicken nuggets chips and dip ,the dip was missing. We were very disappointed 😞.

I have ordered from this chippy for years and the food has always been exceptional. I order using the app delivery and I have to say it is generally delivered bang on time and never is over 20 mins past the delivery slot. The food has always been cooked fresh and delivered piping hot. There's a lot of whingers on here who have complained about the wait time. This is a popular chippy so be prepared to wait if you are ordering in the shop. Use a bit of common sense and book a collection or delivery slot. Give the staff the credit they deserve

First time trying here tonight and we were not disappointed! The young fella who took our order over the phone was lovely, his manners were next to none. Food was beautiful, we ordered a few different things so we could determine our favourites on the menu as they offer so much, and it's hard to pick as everything was beautiful. We live about 15-20mins from the chippy, and the food travelled well in our own car to home, we will definitely be visiting again, it was well worth the trip!

Food is always great but the waiting times are just getting ridiculous!!! Feels like you order stuff and are told 30 mins but you get there any they are just putting it on! Everytime

Had “Festive Chips” from here - Amazing!! I phoned through at 6:30pm for collection and was told to come and collect at 7pm as they were busy. (I thought that was a good collection time). Paid £7 for them and woah that’s worth it. Yum the portion size was great! The stuffing was amazing. What a feed! You gotta try them! Filling and delicious. Thanks to all involved putting it together.

Called in & ordered two chips at 8pm, 5 people in front of me, got my chips at 8.50.... Desperately slow & very overpriced .. Lots of people complaining. Felt sorry for the guy on the till. 5 people behind the fryers..food was just Ok. Sorry to say that I won't be back 😞

I have just spent £15 on food and ordered to be delivered in a time slot between 6 45 till 7 and its now 7 35 and still waiting on my food. Phoned up 10 minutes ago and they told me it's out for delivery. So cold food on its way thank god for microwave. Never again will I be ordering again no excuse for this service
