The fryery in High Peak

Had lovely fish and chips whilst staying in Whaley Bridge for the week, they were so nice had F&C twice batter crisp and lovely chips nice mushy peas. My husband and son liked the cheese and onion pie thanks again.

Had lovely fish and chips whilst on holiday in Whaley Bridge they were so delicious had twice in one week, reasonably priced too. Keep up the great work. Would definitely pay a visit next time in Derbyshire. Thank you.

We have been having fish and chips from here for years but last nights were very poor Chips were soggy and cold Fish was tiny and had a pink tinge to it. Batter was soggy Mush peas were like soup thin and watery All fo £14 No thanks

Brilliant chippy and always very friendly. Been going for years and I have never had any complaints. Best chippy in Derbyshire

We've used this chippy for years on & off and it's normally pretty good, but last nights dinner was really terrible and very expensive. Both the pieces of fish tasted dried, stale and the batter was extremely chewy, like the fish had been left on the top of the frier all night and they were just waiting for an unsuspecting customer to come in that's not one of the usual locals to palm it off with. The sausage we ordered was not there, which upset my daughter, who was really looking forward to it. The chips were pale and fairly undercooked and the scallops were a bit chewy too. The curry sauce was good though! We'll be getting dinner elsewhere in future. We even felt guilty giving the local birds the left overs in case it was too chewy and undercooked for them.

Nice little chip shop with friendly staff. We had fish and chips, chicken nuggets and a black pudding supper. All the food was lovely but the portion size of the black pudding was a little small I feel but maybe this was reflective of the price.

Absolutely delicious. OK so I only had chips and peas but they were spot on. Perfectly cooked portion size, excellent prices and lovely staff. Definitely one to re-visit.

Gone down hill, ordered large chips and they was tiny! 2 pots of sauces forgotten- didn’t realise until I got home and noticed they was missing! Sausage was so pale I thought it was still raw! Really disappointed

Traditional chippy offering traditional fish and chips, pies, puddings, curry sauce (traditional and spicy), peas, etc. Fish is cooked to order, always the sign of a decent chippy, and the batter is crispy and tasty. I've been going most Fridays for a few years now, and the standard of the food is consistent and always good. The staff are lovely and friendly, even when it gets busy, which it does.

Been here a few times now and consistency is key this is a Fantastic place, amazing staff, great quality food and very good prices and thenhome made pies are perfect. Fresh and tasty. Only thing I would change is offering delivery. Thank you.

We are here on holiday and normally struggle to find fish and chips as good as our local, however The Fryery was as good, if not better. It was all fresh and hot, lovely crisp batter on the fish and the chips were excellent, even the pickled egg and curry sauce were good. Will probably have a second visit and would definitely recommend.

Great chippy , always fresh ,always tasty

Made sure you order your fish as soon as you arrive, even if there is a que! Otherwise you could have a long wait. Good news, they take card payment 😀. Really lovely 🐠 and good chips, good size portion.

My Tartan Loving Welsh friend encouraged me to try the battered Haggis. Omg! Was bloody lovely! We stopped here for cheeky battered black pudding snack but on trying these will be bk for then too! Staff were friendly and chatty. Definitely recommend giving them a go

Have used this chippy before and have had great food. Goodness knows what happened this evening! Ordered fish, chips, and mushy peas. I ordered the fish fresh when I walked in. When we opened them at home, the chips looked and tasted as though they were3 weeks old. Hard, shrivelled, and tasted awful. The fish was tasteless, and the mushy peas congealed. Will not be returning.

We have come here for Years followed by a walk on the canal. The past few times we have been the portions have been getting smaller and smaller. Now they are shocking, this I'd a large chips £3+, small fish despite asking for a "Large" and poor flavours on the curry and gravy. We won't be going again and having the extra travel time to go somewhere else.

Fantastic chippy making it our weekly treat. We'll done to all staff.

Had a take away Couldn't fault the service and very friendly And considerate Best fish and chips in ages

Great little chippy. Always use it when I'm in the neighbourhood!

Absolutely banging little Chippy . Food is always spot on and the staff are brilliant

Starting using the Fryery around 12 months back,best chippy for miles.

The best of traditional British fish and chips

This is the third time that we've stopped off at the Fryery on our way back to Nottinghamshire. The ladies behind the counter are really friendly and very helpful. The food is always cooked fresh and to perfection. We would highly recommend this fish and chip shop in the High Peak.

Best chippy in the Land without a doubt

Excellent fish and chips, very clean and friendly staff

Freshly made fish to order in about 5 mins which was excellent, chips were a bit enemic looking but good. The spicy curry sauce was lip tingling so not too hot and probably appeal to the majority. Overall 4 stars only let down by the chips.

Excellent chips and had deep fried haggis which was a tasty treat. Will be back.

Always good and the onions in vinegar are a must

Food… not cheap and a very small piece of fish In terms of length and thickness. Batter was not crispy but a hard shell around the fish that took some cutting through. Service … slow. It was not very busy and i only ordered a simple meal for one. Took between 10-15 for my food to be ready. Staff looked busy and it was hot but their frostiness left me feeling that was somehow my fault.

Great food and friendly service, would recommend when visiting Whaley Bridge.

Great service here, good priced, nice food.

Great fish and chips, from the taste and texture of the fish to the crispness of the batter

Chinese chicken curry with half and half 👌👌👌

Went on National Fish and Chip day. What a treat we had, excellent crispy fish, very very good chips and mushy peas. There was a long queue, not surprisingly, but staff were working flat out. Well worth the wait

Gorgeous food great price wonderful friendly staff. We travel over an hour to go here. 😀

Beautiful fish and chips.....a bit pricey but worth it.

Best chippy around by far, lovely friendly ladies behind the counter too, my girls love a chippy from here, they ask for it every day for tea! 🤦‍♀️🤣

Our go to chippy! Never greasy and is definitely my households favourite place. The ladies are lovely too 👍🏻

Excellent fish and chips. Discovered between Christmas and new year because they were the only ones open. We live in Sparrowpit so they put extra paper on to keep them warm. Going again this evening.

Excellent . Good fish and chips. Nice staff.

Great tasting chips! Recommended!

On discovering that literally nowhere offers eat-in food in Whaley Bridge on a Monday evening we decided to take fish & chips back to our narrow boat. The Fryery was excellent in every way - extremely friendly & welcoming staff, delicious food and good value too.

This little chippy is probably the best takeaway I have ever visited. ❤

Just a really great fish and chip shop. Very friendly and helpful staff and absolutely fabulous chips!

Fabulous food excellently cooked keep up the good work 👏

Very nice fish and chips. Cooked to order so very fresh and hot. Nice friendly staff. Would go back good see portions.

Great old fashioned fish and chip shop in the heart of Whaley Bridge, right near the canal

Fish cooked to order and so considerable wait. Fish was good with nice crispy batter but chips were just "ok".

Typical chippy not a cheap meal anymore.

Great chips v tasty freshly cooked

Friendly service and most excellent fish and chips.

first class chippy - wont find better fish and chips anywhere. Friendly staff and plenty of parking space out front . Fish size, prices and portions are all spot on .

Dropped in here on the way home. Delicious Scampi and chips... Are them by the canal.

Unfortunately, the chips were a bit cold, the fish batter was stodgy and falling off. Very disappointed.

Great food and brilliant prices. Lovely staff too.

Well known & very convienent fish & chip shop in Whaley Bridge oppersite the well defunct Jodrell Arms.( In side street off main Road) Great to see doing well & the food is excellent!

Amazing best chippy in whaley xx

The cod was cooked to oblivion and disintegrated upon contact with the mouth due to all the oil that had seeped through the woefully soggy and depressing batter. It just tasted like oil, I never tasted the fish. The battered sausage was greasy and the inside disintegrated to mush instantly, whilst the skin was so tough I almost needed a steak knife to cut through it. The sausage taste was slightly more noticeable than the fish, but still more oil than actual flavour. The chips weren't bad at all though which was an unexpected surprise, so I must pay them their dues for that. In summary, if you're forced to eat here then just stick to the chips. This 'plaice' is clearly just going through the motions and not taking any pride in the cooking and quality of their food, and the fact that this chippy has a 4.6 rating shows that 90% of the people who eat here don't care about the quality of their food either. I'm giving it 2 stars because of the chips, otherwise it would be worse. I hope they read this and make the decision to develop and improve their batter, and also give the cooking process the care and attention it deserves as everything is far too oily right now. If your business is fish and chips, then you've got to at least do both of those things well.

Great fish and chip shop highly recommended

Not great really staff barely acknowledge you, half of the fish and chips was stuck to the paper unfortunately and i didnt feel like eating the paper with ink on. Go to Frydays the other chippy in whaley bridge miles better in every way.

If it was more consistent would use more often. Have a tendency to blame the potatoes. 😊

Nice workers, let me off 10p for a can.

Great chippy... fish is lovely, braised steak a wonderful change

The best fish and chips in the High Peak. Tried many places but keep coming back.

Proper traditional chippy - excellent food. Never had a bad meal from here.

Small chip shop down near the canal basin. Chips where hot and fresh, just what was needed on a wet Wednesday evening.

Good service safe environment helpful staff good value

Ring in your order and it's always ready on time - friendly bunch.

Cooked well but it was tiny fish fillet in the fish and chips

Always lovely food served with smiles

Excellent food, great staff, I phoned ahead and it was ready and waiting at the time promised

I had fish n chips from the Fryery for the first time yesterday and it was really really good. The tasty, cripsy batter deserves special mention. Fantastic! I'll be back for more and thanks to all at the Fryery for serving great food during these difficult times.

First time we have ever enjoyed takeaway fish n chips. The chips were lovely and yellow, not the brown mush that is often served by chippies. Everything was really fresh, no grease in sight. Batter was light and tasty and didn't leave our sensitive tummies upset at all. And very friendly staff. Will be coming to the area for a walk again so we can return! :)

Great food and friendly staff highly recommend

Had fish and chips , thoughly enjoyed it

This is a nice little chippy. Staff are lovely and the food is always good. It is very small, though, so you sometimes have to queue out of the door.

Good solid fish and chip shop. Not trying to be flash. Quality always good and staff always friendly. Make sure you order fish as soon as you arrive - cooked to order. Mushy peas excellent. Being from Yorkshire I struggle with the idea of gravy on chips but the Lancastrians seem to like it.

Best fish and chips in the world. Sometimes I get off the train and walk home eating chips. 👌

Friendly staff and good portions

Got the best fish and chips ever from this amazing chippy. My son and daughter-in-law had haddock, chips and curry sauce and I had plaice and chips with mushy peas. The batter was light, crisp and fluffy, the fish cooked to perfection, the chips were crisp and delicious and my mushy peas were properly done, not straight out of a tin. I have eaten fish and chips from up and down the country, and this has been the best by several yards. Delicious and highly recommended.

Called in whilst visiting Whaley Bridge. The lady who served us wasn't very friendly but she was doing her job. I had chips and my hubby had chips and a pie. I asked for "scraps" and was impressed that they cooked some for me there and then. If I have asked for these in other chip shops and they don't have any they just say no. There was a continual flow of people coming into the shop, many of which were locals, which tells you it's a decent chippy. The food we had was very nice and we would call in again if in the area.

Awful. Ordered chips and gravy. The gravy tasted like washing up liquid and ruint the chips. Extremely slow service, over a ten minute wait for just chips and gravy (we were only third in the queue).

Only ever had scampi and chips from here, they are the best I have ever had and will now go nowhere else. Proper whole tail scampi, dry crisp chips and scampi. Only downside, tartar sauce just taste like mayonnaise.

Verry fresh fish cooked to order. Fantastic staff

Top of the pops for fish and chips in Whaley Bridge

Lovely place lovely staff very friendly lovely food

Thought we would give place another chance as last time we went they were terrible, I had fish and chips the batter was so hard when I got to the fish it was dry , the chips were hard you couldn't even get plastic fork in them , no taste will not be returning

Never fail to impress with consistent delicious food with plenty of variety. All the staff are so friendly and love to have a chat.

One of the Best chippy's around, I've never had anything to complain about. Great staff. Very friendly

Some nice fish and chips bought from here and eaten on some picnic tables alongside the canal

Great chippy not greasy like some can be. Quick and efficient

Great fish and chips, excellent curry sauce

Great food. Great service friendly staff

Good traditional English chippy. And good value

Just purchased fish and chips and wss so looking forward to eating it until I opened the wrapper and discovered both fish were burnt. I can assure you it was not what I expected. I will certainly think twice before returning! So disappointed!

Great fresh fish, well prepared, very friendly.

Brilliant fish brilliant chips cooked to order with humor- what more do you want- highly recommended

This is the nicest chip shop not only because of the food which is beautiful but the staff are the most polite lovely people

The quality of the food here was evidenced by the length of the queue in the shop, and it was worth the wait. The batter on my cod was just the right thickness, without overwhelming the fish in the mushy sleeping bag of pulp that is so often applied in other outlets. The fish itself was fresh, succulent and tasty, and the chips a good colour, with many of them nice and crispy. The price was excellent value too. I've not seen sliced mildly pickled onions on offer as a condiment before, but tried them and found them a good addition to the chips, so I'm a convert. I was intrigued by some of the items on the menu, such as deep-fried battered haggis and black pudding, so may well opt for those next time. A great find to add to my list of good quality fast food outlets in the Whaley area.

As always, FANTASTIC the best for miles around. A varied and tasty menu, please try everything, but not together.
