The Crispy Cod in St. Helens

Ordered by telephone for collection. Picked meal up, got home, not what we ordered and way too much salt on everything. Will check order before leaving next time for sure.

Couldn't sample the food as doesn't take debit cards only cash Directed to cash machine next door but not in use This is 2024 cash transactions are being widely phased out with use of phones and Modern payment methods Chopshop needs to come out of the stone age

Excellent chippy. Gets busy but is big enough to cope

Chips steak pudding and peas barm cake and a tin of pop £6.40. nice and filling. Will definitely call again if I'm working in that area.

Prompt service and friendly staff serving excellent food and reasonably priced as well

Great chip shop, always great fresh food and that is consistent, I put this down to the fact they are always busy

Great food ,great staff long queue....but worth the wait

Probably the best chippy in the area, I don't think I've had one single bad chip from here. One of the very few businesses with a 5/5 hygiene rating, it is SO clean! I guess you could say the menu is a little small (compared to some places) but they have your standard chippy items, if you want fish and chips then I wouldn't go anywhere else. Highly recommended.

Great food and good value for money. We go regularly.

Probably the best fish n chips outside of whitby!!

Excellent service. Always good fish & chips. I highly recommend this chippy in Haydock.

Absolutely disgusting, staff had no idea what they were doing, chaotic atmosphere in shop. Food order wrong and standard of food would have been 0 stars if that was an option. Will not be returning or recommending. Lovely family night ruined, thanks crispy cod!!

Fantastic fish and chips, and potato fritters. The kebabs are huge, and very tasty.

I can't share my thoughts on the food as they only take cash and I only had my card on me. But why do they only take cash?

Fabulous fish dinner and a can of Shandy Lovely light batter, curry sauce covered chips, well hit the spot 👍👍👍

Good food and quick service. Cash only though, for some reason.

High prices! Small portions! Pi$$ poor service! £6-40 for a small portion of chips, a bearly cooked pie, gravy and a 20 minute wait Try elsewhere!

Absolutely appalling customer service, usually a nice chippy however a member of staff really let the place down, swearing at customers, bad attitude overall. If you hate your job so much just don't work there! No excuse, will not be returning….

I called in and ordered fish and chips with a can of pop, the woman behind the counter goes and sorts my order out returning to the till and i go to pay using my card. Then i get told in a sudden change of tone.. Its cash only 🤨 ( I usually always pay cash yet on this day i didn’t have quite enough) Didn’t notice any sign and it’s a fairly modern looking chippy. The next customer steps in and offered to pay for it even though i never met the guy before, i offered him the majority of it from what money i had but he said it was fine. So nice gesture of goodwill from a random person but staff put me in a poor situation with attitude as i never noticed the cash only thing and ive been going there since it was only a single shop chippy from a long time ago but i wouldn’t go again even with cash after that visit ! Food was okay yet wasn’t impressed with staff.

Late call but little choice. Chips soft and pie pastry was dry.

Fish and chips one the best in the area

Wow wow wow!!! Just had my lunch from here and it was georgous! Fish, chips, beans and a can for £6.20. Fantastic value and one of the best meals I’ve had for years from a chip shop. Really good service and food was beautiful! Will definitely be back!!

Had a mixed kebab wrap for dinner today and I have to say it was the best one I have ever had and for a very reasonable price. Tommy Lang out

Fantastic food and staff at this chippy. Separate entrance and exit doors WELL DONE

Great traditional chip shop. If you want simple fish and chips then I'd definitely recommend. If you're looking for Chinese meals etc go elsewhere. Their menu is limited but what they do make is really good.

Excellent chip shop any time we're down working this is the place to go

Great choices and reasonable prices

Ur standard old school chippy which do kebabs as well. Decent portions at decent prices and pretty good quality. Fast service and nice staff. Street parking available.

Best chippy for miles Nothing else comes close

Fantastic chippy, good portions and friendly staff. If you're in the area call in and give it a try, you will not be disappointed. It's cash only so don't turn up with a card. They have a lunch time special that's great value for money.

Fish and Chips are reasonably priced for this day and age, roughly £7. Fish was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, chips were as you would expect. Curry was quite warm in spice and we had two options of gravy, one with onions and one traditional. Would recommend and definitely go again!

The staff are always friendly, the kebab wrap is amazing and the chips are always fresh. Oh and the dog loves the jumbo sausage hehe

Great chippy, was doing a job over the road called in at lunchtime great service and great food at good prices

Absolutely stunning food and excellent staff 👌

Great chippy always been one of my favourites.

The food was very nice and the prices were reasonable, the only issue was it was cash only and we had to go to the asda along the road. Recommended for a good chippy

Great chippy, fast service and very clean, always busy but not long too wait

First time ordering from here and it didn't disappoint. The fish was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Chips were nice too. Staff friendly.

fantastic place for the takeaway dinner and the food is always delicious

The fish was sparsely battered on one side making the fish dry. Chips limp and pale. Lack of taste in the whole meal.

Got two lots of fish and chips Very expensive 🫰 considering all the chips were raw If you want over priced under cooked food this is the place for you 🙄

First of all there was an old lady very disrespectful and plus I gave £20 she just gave Cople of coins back and to be honest I didn't count cause I was on hurry! The fish and chips were in very small potion and not nice at all!!! Definitely not recommend 👎👎👎

Best chip shop I've ever been to

Excellent selection of takeaway foods.

Good tasty food at a reasonable price

First class in every way Highly recommended

Appauling came here last time was overcharged also ave fish and small chips hidden underneath really dear the dearest in the area and mostly batter. Sorry but thisnplace must have changed hands 8yrs ago great. Now poor. Tonight 9.25 35min b4 closing and they had nothing. Fair enough with fish it needs prepping but chips thisnis downright lazy... Close early if u cant supply u customers!!!

Just been to crispy cod not been for a while and won't be going again cost of live crisis paid full price for a small portion of chips just gave me what was left from the boiling not a full portion very disappointed

You can tell a good chippy when its always busy.

Just had a mixed chicken kebab from this place, and coming from Wigan which is utterly devoid of any kind of freshly cooked tasty takeaway food this place is a breath of fresh air to me. They not only had Propper sharwama style chicken kebab meat on a spit, but in 2 different flavours, plus Donner meat available ( why you would want donner instead of fresh of chicken meat is beyond comprehension but anyway) they also had freshly prepared salad with crispy white shredded cabbage as is the done thing on a kebab!!! Finally a chip shop that knows what they are doing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I’ll travel here from now on a Friday tea time. Wigan chip shops are light years behind 🙄

The best fish and chips in haydock, always worth cueing

Amazing quality food every time, always delicious. And incredibly slimming if eaten every day....😀

Been going here on and off for a number of years but moved, after coming back in the area I have been again a few times and have found the food to be as good as ever.The staff do seem to be be quite miserable for some reason and the guy doing the frying could do with some people skills and maybe a nice smile now and again. I would have given 5 otherwise .

Best fish and chips in the local area. It's always tasty every time I go, the fish is really nicely cooked. Definitely worth driving a bit further than my local chippies.

Great staff. Great food and really clean

Traditional fish and chips or kebabs, always excellent! Love it!!!

Great quality,cooked fresh not left to stand.

Best fish chips and peas for miles around.

Brilliant chippy Delicious the chips peas and and batterd cod

One of the best..!, Let me tell you..! "these guys can fry a chip".... great friendly staff, they also do telephone orders, Another chippy on my short list to recommend to people... Can get Busy...

Can't wait for 4 30 to go for T why I'm staying at my grandsons babysitting, love this chippy so much xxxxx

Lovely chip shop had fish chips peas and gravy thoroughly enjoyed it, will return when in the area

Went for the first time today, the fish and chips I bought were spot on, they were delicious, I will definitely be going again.

Awesome takeaway joint. They make my Friday night complete. They deserve more than 5 on the food hygiene rating. Couldn't ask for a better customer service, massive thanks to you all at Crispy cod. See you all next Friday. Adiós amigos.................

If it was just the food I was rating I would probably give 5* to be honest but unfortunately the staff let the place down they are horrible and I mean horrible ...apart from one lady who works there she is lovely and I just wish I knew her name so I could make sure people knew it wasn't her ...we live like 35 mins away and used to travel to this crispy cod just for the food but we have stopped going as the staff are so rude and stern ..a few times I've come close to just walking out the 2 men in there are horrible aswell the staffs manner is disgusting and they need to go on a customer care course...getting shouted at "CAN YOU MOVE DOWN ..MOVE DOWN" and when I asked the man a question getting shouted at "I CARNT UNDERSTAND A WORD YOUR SAYING" ..they all look so depressed aswell so they could also do with a personality transplant ..apart from the nice lady she is lovely! They have lost 2 good customers anyway who spent quite a bit of money each time ..I'd rather spend my money somewhere were we are treated with respect and appreciated

Love this place. Food excellent

Been a few times now and i will go again. General fish and chip shop with the added option of kebabs. Chips are nice, and sausages very nice (kids love them). Kebab meat could do with a bit longer on the heat as it looks slightly anemic haha Prices are pretty standard aswell so no massive bill to feed family of 4. Massive drawback, parking. There's enough room on the front for about 4 cars and this is divided up between the chippy and the shop attached. Parking can be a problem though, unless you want to risk the double yellow lines, if not, park in street opposite

Excellent local fish & chip shop with a very large menu.

Rude staff! They implied they couldn't understand my accent. I'm British and was born here. I'm originally from Nottingham, our accent is similar to Londoners, clear and easy to understand so implying they didn't understand a word I said was clearly a lie. It really ruined the experience and I won't be returning as I felt very unwelcome. Unfortunately this place is run by backwards uneducated idiots.

Best chippy around d highly recommend

Best Chippy I've been to in my 65 Years, we travel 5 miles to get to it, and still warm when we get home.

Fantastic staff in here, had no problem with my order for our staff food run. Excellent service and great food

Amazing I travel to get there, tasty quality food

Food is excellent, never had a bad meal in all the years I've visited here.

Keep going back here for their fish & chips the batter is crispy and the chips aren’t covered in grease they’re crispy as well. Gravy is lovely. There are always great meal deals as well. Since moving to the area we were struggling to find a local chippy but this is our new spot!

Always delicious. Highly recommended.

Quality fish and chips. Very popular in the area, they were recommended to my by a friend. Open during lockdown so ideal if working away. Friendly staff and the fish was very well cooked.

Really good food from a good old english chippy.

Go most weeks and can't fault it

Excellent food. Can phone through staff always friendly

Nothing is too much trouble here

Superb food and service. Best chippy in the area 👍

Always fresh and hot, tastes amazing

worst chippin in the world... got 3 pies that were raw in the middle n i saw the the woman wipe a bogie under the counter!!!

Over charged my teenage son for food. Wrong order given when he got home. Missed half the children’s burger meal. Fish used to be lovely in here. It was rubbery and cool. Unable to eat. Chips were hard, loads of black spots in them. Extremely oily. Disgusting. Will never go again. DEFINITELY WILL NOT GO AGAIN, rather starve. I just wasted £17. Not happy at all. Staff need to listen to their customers, maybe some customer service training. Person in question apparently doesn’t know how to smile. Be zero stars if it was an option.

Our regular Thursday lunch place from work. We ring order through and always ready. Good fish lunch on specials.

Chips were awful and the fish was meant to be white it was grey Travelled from newton after a recommendation I wont use again im adraid

Best chippy in haydock by far .. The only one I will use x

Crispy cod was v good and the service was excellent

Good fish and chips reasonably priced

this is the best chippy in Wigan area

Under cooked chips, potatos tasted raw and the pie was cold it was like they took it out freezer and put it in microwave for 30 seconds, The staff was rude I’ll never go again.

Fantastic food Fantastic taste Fantastic service Fantasticly clean Dinner meat yummy SPAM fritter yummy Curry yummy Fish chips yummy Curry curry

I’m a local and we go here every so often if we treat ourselves and in my time I have been to many chippies and none have ever had as good food as this one, the sausages are bursting with flavour and the fish is delicious with a perfect batter as well the gravy being one of the best I’ve ever had, come here every so often and I will continue to for a while.

Ive visited this establishment a few times now,the food is generally good,the only downside food wise is the fish,there is so much batter at the sides and ends and hardly any in the middle. The staff seem friendly enough with those who seem to be regulars or live locally,but a smile and friendly hello from some especially the guy doing the cooking wouldn't go a miss.

Food is ok but nothing special but always feel as though your'e intruding by going in. I asked the man doing the frying if he could put me some specials in (fritters) and he said NO i'm not doing any of them now. This was 30 minutes before closing time. This will not be my first choice for fish and chips in future.

I live local and often get the gluten free. Have to call in advance but it’s worth it, as it’s done properly with no cross contamination etc. Went today for a meal for my son, £2.70 for a kids gf fish and chips which included a drink and a lollipop. Bargain!

The fish from here is terrible. It's very thin and they put no batter on it at all, which makes it very dry and hard. I've given over going. Maniac!

Nice, fresh food. Big variety of menu and kids boxes. Enjoy the meal deals. Kebabs are fresh and choice of sauces nice.

I visit this chippy on a regular basis and find the quality of food excellent value for money. The portion sizes are always generous and the staff are always welcoming and willing to help with any odd requirements. Fish, Chips and Peas which is my regular option is also available as a Gluten Free option on request.
