The Flying Fish in Telford and Wrekin

The Flying Fish is the place to go to for a takeaway in Telford. Amazing food, great staff and you can order for home delivery via Uber Eats. If you are stuck for something to eat, particularly on a Friday, the Chicken Curry Special is as close to perfection as you can get, just be prepared to queue for a few minutes as this place, quite rightly, gets busy!

Always been to the fish and chip shop for years. Fish was always big and excellent. In the past 6 months I have still kept going but the cod is now very chewy. Thought I’d was a one of, but no it is chewy all the time now, never ever experienced this before Old fish ? Cooked too many times ? Frozen and defrosted too many times Will try again later this year before I write this chewy cod place off

Really enjoyed but was VERY disappointed in the £11 meat box. There was hardly any meat for the price.

Fish and chips are the best.my mum loves them.

Have known the people here over 20 years Service and food can never be faulted

The chips were lovely. The staff very friendly and helpful.

Best chips and kebabs in Dawley

I absolutely love the fish and chips and there onion rings here staff absolutely fantastic

Went here couple of weeks ago order the food and miss heard the time turned up nearly 40 mins after the food was ready I couldn’t be more apologetic! They was brilliant and re made my whole order which I couldn’t thank them enough for considering this was my first time this was a great first impression. I’ve then gone again this evening and had two kebabs and again food is brilliant we travel to have this and couldn’t ask for better food and service!

The best option! Me and my wife have been coming to this chippy as our primary option for as long as I can remember. Great food that keeps us coming back, staff with a genuine smile (a rare sight these days) and service that I truly hope they're proud of. This humble little chippy out shines any other option within the area.

Beautiful chips and the scampi was so tasty... Cod massive very enjoyable meal 👌 great value for money 💰 Best chips have tasted since arriving here for a short break 😋

Always nice food here best chippy in Telford

Yesterday me and the family popped into the flying fish for abit of lunch. We chose to eat in. The chips were fresh out the fryer, hot, golden and hands down the best chips I have ever tried. Service as always was amazing, friendley, down to earth and welcomeing. Thankyou to the Flying Fish Team 💓

Always lovely 🌹 and food is 👍 we love our takeaway from there .xx

My local chippy. About as good as fish and chips gets! Same owners for eons, very friendly Ozzy bird. 100 characters is a lot when describing your favourite chip shop

Amazing chips, very fast service. And the ladies in there are very polite

Great product, servie and price. I have been coming to the chip shop since I was a kid, can't reccomend it enough.

Stopped here for chips on our journey home after walking up The Wrekin. Really lovely food, great service, friendly staff and great value for money. We'll definitely come back when we're in the area again :-)

Brilliant staff, Brilliant food ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Flying Fish, fish and chip shop in Dawley High St is top quality for anything you would want for a takeaway supper. This is a local business run by local people and you can clearly see that from the atmosphere created by the staff. The food is top quality.

Just had beautiful cod and chips from here, best ever tasted, good portions and served by lovely people, whenever I fancy fish and chips I always head for here 😋 scrumptious

I’ve never had a bad meal here, every time it’s fresh food and fantastic service. The staff are so friendly and will do anything for you. Would 100% recommend.

Fabulous Fish and chips quick friendly service highly recommended

Well, this has got to be the finest chippy around! I must drive past 6 or 7 others to get here. The naan kebabs are to die for! Bread nicely cooked(but not over). Meat serving is incredibly generous & salad really fresh. The smallest portion of chips, a cone, is again quite generous. Staff are always very friendly & chatty😁😁A*

Love the shop love and friendly people in there nice food and I am in there most days and the manager is very friendly

I am the first to leave a negative review anywhere that gives bad service, so I believe it only right to leave positive reviews when I get excellent service. As usual, upon entry to the shop, Helen greeted me with her warm and friendly welcome, they had a bit of a lunch time rush on, but still had my order in quick time. The girls behind the counter didn’t skip a step getting people’s food in front of me and still managed to hold conversation in a polite and pleasant manner with myself and waiting customers. I had my food, it went down a treat. Could not fault a single thing. People may question that I’m a regular when reading my review, to those people I say, ask yourself why I am a regular. Customer service and food like this breeds nothing but customer loyalty, to Helen and her entire team, thank you. There is a reason so many people come back, please never change 🙏.

Absolutely amazing, the team behind the counter were great, couldn’t fault them one bit, they are long time owners of this chip shop and I’m still coming back here 30 years later.

Seriously can not believe what i had witnessed the other day standing outside of the chip shop, a member of staff had dropped some food on the floor and then have picked it up to put it in to the box and gave it to the delivery driver! I have had many bad experiences with this chip shop, mainly the staff, so i thought i would finally make a review as well as noticing that all the good reviews on here are from people that work at the place! I would highly recommend anyone avoids this place! So many better takeaways on the high street!

Very pleased clean tidy and very friendly 😀

Well what an awful experience!!! Ordered burger upon arrival, joined the queue my sister was in front of me, after waiting for my turn found that the burger had not even been started at this time no one was serving as they were dealing with someone else!!!! When I explained that was I going to have to wait much longer as my sisters food would be cold!!! I was told by the owner that we should have informed them we were together and she wasn’t in the mood for an argument and I could cancel my food!! Well I have never been treated so badly in my life. Will never step foot in the place again!!! Good luck to anyone who is happy to be treated so badly. Merry Christmas all.

my favourite chippy by far! staff are always so friendly and helpful, food is such a good value for money especially meat in a naan - the meats are always tasty and leave me stuffed. the fish and chips is also lovely. tried the new battered pigs in blankets tonight and they are to die for, will defo be getting these again soon

Couldn't order as at the last minute I spotted a sign that card payments were not allowed on a Monday, Tuesday or Wed? Didn't have any cash on me so couldn't rate the food properly.

Amazing staff as always, so generous with the portions and the new battered pigs in blankets were amazing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I can't knock the food. It was all fresh and tasty.. I would have given a 5* rating, however.. I'm sat here now and feel quite deflated... the lady at the till got my order wrong and when I corrected her, she totally humiliated me... her response to me questioning my order was " don't have a go at me, I've been here since 8am, and I'm blind" I turned to the lady in the queue next to me who was also shocked at the lady's response. The till lady then said " and don't pull faces behind my back.. i could be sat home on benefits but im not"... when it came to giving me my change (over £3.00) I told her keep it.. I then walked away and sat to ear my food... this kind of attitude is not ok from a member of staff in any industry.. I could have told her, how I have also been driving since 8am... but didn't.. I just sat and ate my food ... . No member of staff should be saying this ever to paying customers, especially as it was as a result from them getting my order wrong.... It's good that she works... and not on benefits... but how about please keep your personal comments away from the job you get paid for... I will repeat.. the food is amazing ... but the till girl was so rude ....

This used to be a fantastic chip shop. The food was beautiful, but the last 2 visits have ended up in the bin. I understand prices have hiked up every where but atleast make the food edible. I had ordered over £25. And unfortunately, everything was floating in grease. It's not drained enough. I am very disappointed as this chip shop used to be amazing. Unfortunately, we won't be going back in a hurry.

Wow wow wow. Now I usually have the fish from here because it's amazing. But today I tried the kebab because I fancied a change. I'm very fussy with meat ....if it's got too much fat or any gristle. I'm put off! Always a gamble. This mixed meat kebab was just perfect. Perfectly cooked and the taste and texture- spot on. The home made chilli was very refreshing too ...yum. The service is always fab too. Friendly staff and an overall fab experience :)

A regular fast food shop, but the quality of the product, the taste and the nicest staff ever make this fast food to be one of the best in town. Definitely i'll be back every time when i'll want one of their meal. A big plus, they do delivery through the Uber Eats.

Use it once a month, nothing negative to say. Always had a good experience.

Called in after football on Saturday and needed to walk to Wellington. Ordered the kebab salad and chips what a portion. The staff were very friendly to all the customers. Well, apart from Claire, who always gives me the best banter and the biggest smile. Best chippy in town by a long shot. Keep up the great work, ladies. And keep that smile always Claire it suits you 😊

Very nice. The chips from here tonight were outstanding.

Sorry, but the steak and kidney pie you sold me was luke warm. Perhaps I caught you on a bad day last Saturday.

The food is excellent and a great choice. Would recommend over any other. Portion size fantastic and staff always keep the shop clean.

Excellent food,and service...pleasant ly greeted ..everything you hope to find when being served,spot on .

The doner kebab was very nice, freshly made and was still piping hot on delivery.

This place has gone seriously downhill, it used to be great but I've noticed standards slipping. Today the food was terrible, the chips were hard and undercooked but also covered in big black bits, whilst the pie and fish both seemed like they had been sat around for hours. I won't bother going again.

I have used this chip shop many times had some at times HAD SOME BAD SOME GOOD FOOD but never complained today will I go there again never.Gave order paid went home no chips grandkids back in car. Was given 1 receipt then another said chips will be this amount £2.50 I said I ordered it why not in. Said also should of brought other food back to re do order was told our fault but yours to re seeing to granddaugter. Never use again nor friend family as service is terrible.

Dined in with a friend. Massive fish and great quality!

Trying to find a good fish and chip shop around Telford for a long time, we have had 3 orders from them now, everytime it's been excellent with no complaints from the kids! Allways arrived piping hot still when deliverd, the burgers and chips are beautiful, no soggy chips as arrive in boxes, and all the boxes marked up with what's in them rather having to route around trying to find who's is who's. If you are looking for a good chippy look no further, excellent.

Good food, good prices. Never had a bad meal from here.

Always good food at any time of the day. That was a few weeks ago but today I went in and ordered a large cod and chips. When the chap serving me picked up the box I said large? He said yes large or do you want extra large? Large I answered. I was very surprised how small the portion was compared to the last time I came and it was the same price. I was very nice anyway but it didn't fill the spot. I'm fully aware of the increase in food prices but they should be a bit more transparent with the new prices so we can make a informed choice. I've worked in retail for years and I would have had the sence to cover up the label under the box saying SMALL.

It's not about the food , it's the long wait, no interaction from thd staff and cash only outlet . Waited for ages . Didn't bother so can't comment on the food

Mixed chicken kebab in a pitta practically no lettuce 2 half slices of tomato chicken mostly dried up and solid last time 4/5 this time I give it a 1/5 because someone did assemble it.

Having delivered by uber eats .last two weeks just warm food tonight cold burger and curry sauce .

Lovely food and friendly great service.

Lovely people. Polite friendly service. Lovely food well cooked.

I have orderd from the flying fish, a few times now and each time it is lovely. The portions are large and the food is cooked to perfection. I recommend this place 100%

1st time visiting here. Very small portion of chips sold to me as a large. In comparison to other local chip shops, pricey and overall quality poor. Undercooked chips, were also low on flavour. Staff friendly but sad to say that this wouldn't be a reason to return

I was passing by the chippy , to look at a job at a property around 2pm , u know the smell of fish & chips tempt u ,specially when one’s hungry Thought we’d try some food , so a couple of friends joined me The staff was very polite and friendly ,welcoming We sat and had fish & chips at the table , Great service tasty food would definitely go again Well worth it Thank you staff

Staff work so hard dealing with uber, phone orders and shop customers, and always give 100%. Shame so many keyboard warriors feel the need to disrespect those working hard who are doing their best. Helen is always firm but fair and goes above and beyond, always making customers satisfied. Too many people post bad reviews rather than approaching the manager which leaves me questioning how true their complaint is. If you have an issue speak face to face or via a phone call DONT hide behind a computer screen!!!

The staff were excellent and very friendly expecially Claire and Helen always a good laugh and professional. The food is excellent and a great choice. Would recommend over any other chippy in telford.Portion size fantastic and staff always keep the shop clean and to a high standard. Working in the heat just recently must have been very hard but service was 100%

Have always enjoyed the food from here

Now use this place at least once every week,the kebabs are excellent always very fresh salad items, and so are all their other offering,lovely large fish and good portion of chips, and we love the scallops here very nice batter.

The staff member with the brown hair is ridiculously rude. Will always avoid going in there when she’s in. Usually there on a Friday and Saturday evening unfortunately don’t know her name since she does not wear a name badge. Last Friday I went in 20mins before closing time, never been a problem before, but this time the vile woman behind the till shouts the moment we walk through the door “I have online orders for them chips I’m not putting anymore in I’m closing soon” without even knowing what order we wanted. And since when did online orders mean your walk ins can not have food ? I’ve never known a Chinese say no we aren’t making you food because we want to close in 20 minutes. Instantly we walked out and went over to kebab ye who provided us much better service.

I used to come here A LOT about 6 years ago. I'm unsure if the same staff work here, but I was only 17 and in a homeless shelter at the time and my 15 year old brother was staying with me. We were both in education and I literally had no way of feeding him. I came here to get a bag of chips for us to share (our only meal of the day) and since it was near closing time the chip shop gave us loads of free food. They weren't aware of my situation but it is something I will always be grateful for.

Good value, service was realluly good with a smile and thoughtful

Luke warm, price jacked up 15 percent, not good at all

Great food Hot and a fair price...

The Boss lady here serves the best kebabs ever, plenty of meat and salad always. sadly i called in last Saturday lunch time and a thin blonde girl with a stunted pony tail served me to a chicken kebab? i plainly asked for it on a pitta bread and proceeded to the pay point? when i got home to Dawley Bank surprise surprise? it was in a polystyrene tray with very stingy portions of meat and salad and looked a right mess, very poor for £6? she needs to listen to the customer properly instead of gassing to the others behind the counter.

Best chippy in shropshire barr none 👍

Always good. I'm I pig have to much but worth it. Large fish every time

needed chips to go with the gallon of grease I just get served

Shocking, takes forever to get served as you stand in a queue round the shop watching Uber eats and whoever being served before you. Order online, go elsewhere or have beans n toast at home.

Certain meber of staff have put me off not the most hygienic person

Working in the area so we popped up the road for lunch. The flying fish has very nice food and friendly staff. I would definitely recommend them to anyone 👍

The food was lovely and the staff were helpful. The shop is clean and social distancing was in practise.

Usually fab, today not so. Staff complaing at 3.30pm only two of them on shift and was told I can't serve I am cooking sasuages, not great service as usual. Went elsewhere. Only two customers in at the time

In my opinion best chippy around. Go to chips and donna meat with sweet chilli sauce and never fails to please. Donner meat is allways cooked after shaving it off so you get some crispy bits. Flvery friendly service to

Best chippy around , excellent food , price and staff ! Special mention to Claire who is proper friendly and always looks after the customer ! Keep it up !

Great value very friendly staff

Nice food but waited 20 minutes in a queue

Always friendly. Been using this chippy for over 30 years. Nice to go in and see same staff and get the same service. Do wish we could pay by card though.

Due to u need to up date your photo nothing to do with food this one

Absolutely 💯 amazing food is fab and the staff are welcoming and so friendly fantastic place and just to add the gravy is the best ever xx

Best chippy in Telford , food is 100% every time , even on home delivery service still food spot on .

My go to chippy, good prices, great portions and the staff are always cheerful :)

Great chippy! I usually order through Uber eats but no drivers and the birthday boy wanted chippy dinner so I drove! Great service and the food is reliably good.

Great place for fish and chips always good value for money

Asked for two fish cakes only got one I asked for two I could have waited for one

Best fish and chips in Telford!

Lovely staff. Great chips made with new potatoes. Good selection of different food Inc the usual Fish&Chip-shop fare, and burgers and kebab meat.

Ordered tonite thru uber. OMG couldn't fault it. Hot and delicious x

Lovely chippy. Highly recommend

Best fish and chip shop with so many options, amazing service and quick preparation of food!

Food here is amazing! One of my favourite chippies in telford and its only a 10 minute walk from my home

2 Ladies in complete control. Some elderly customers are worried about mixing, ladies help, are confident and turn those who have troubles into customers who are capable. BTW, best fish in Telford!

Always polite and the food is excellent

Fresh and hot food. Friendly and helpful staff.

Service awful, 3 ladies behind counter despite ques they focus on just eat/uber orders as they have 2 collection agents walk in. Customers in front of you can easily walk out remember that, they are probably more loyal to you than online orders 2 staff should be dealing with those customers waiting especially the elderly.if u want to provide an online service make sure u allocate your staff,not just shout out about money uber makes on online customer orders, apologise to keeping customers waiting.

Lovely fish and chip place. Huge fish and chips.

Excellent fish and chips very tasty
