Always had great friendly service and really good food. Quality at a good price.

Wonderful veggie burger consumed on the premises. Served by friendly efficient staff. Thankyou.

Excellent chippy, superb variety and value! Staff went above and beyond! Selection is always quality!

First and last visit yesterday teatime . Ordered two large fish and chips with peas . Although the fish was freshly cooked, nice and white and a good portion size , the batter was soggy and horrible , we both had to peel it off and just eat the fish , there wasn’t a crispy bit of batter on either fish . The chips were a huge portion and looked better than they tasted , didn’t like the texture ,they were a bit like eating cardboard. The peas were fine .An expensive treat , we haven’t had fish and chips from a chippy for years , we won’t be doing it again , it’s better in a pub to be honest and not that much more expensive.

There was a bit of a wait but it was Friday night. Food was nice and a decent portion

Best value, and best tasting fish and chips in the area. Always busy, prices are fair and better value than most other chippys.

Fantastic fish and chips. Even converted my Grandson. The fish was beautifully cooked with crispy batter and the chips were great. Staff lovely and friendly. Our new regular

Not a lot of chips and a long wait for food

This is the 3rd time here but there won’t be a 4th, after travelling 12mile round trip to here the food this time was very poor bland no taste in fact the food left a bad taste in my and my wife’s mouth also the order was wrong sorry to say I wont be returning again would have left 0 stars if I could.

Just had a naan mixed kebab from here. Absolutely brilliant great value for money. I will definitely be back .

Excellent service with a smile. Excellent chips cod and mushy peas at a brilliant price. Parking at the front eat out or in.The best fish and chips I've had. Good price too.just to add the large fish battered was heavenly the cods flesh was large pieces brilliant white and cooked in an amazing batter. Mushy peas a treat and chips yummy I really think the fryer here is magic to be so consistent.

Had a cheese burger with chips the burger was cooked as ordered and chips were the best I have had from a chip shop the delivery was spot on friendly driver and on time will deff be returning

Food is fabulous, and service is quick. Prices and portions are also great.

Food was good, long wait for the fish, but at least it was cooked to order, the chips could have been cooked a bit more and warmer, lots of fat on the wrapping paper. Will definitely go again though.

Great fish & chips, even opens on a Sunday afternoon 😋

10/10 all round the food is amazing, the Owner is very pleasant and the staff are very polite greeting you well and always smile fantastic!!

Brilliant kebabs with a nicely varied menu, friendly staff and a clean shop. No complaints from this side, they even know what I mean when I request the correct amount of salad (none).

Me and my wife came in Saturday lunch time. Our medium cod special with peas was absolutely amazing. Will definitely be back again, great staff too! Keep it up👍🏻

Usually our order is very hot and lovely which is why we choose this business but our last delivery was cold which isn't pleasant for a hot dinner, very disappointed this time.

The fish was amazing,definitely worth the money!

Great food and friendly service. Will be my regular going forward.

I came in on thursday about half 4ish. I had a lovely young lady serve me, she was so so lovely and informed me on the options of the specials you had. Hope she serves me again! Also great Pie too!! 😊

Staff are super friendly...food is always cooked well and there is loads choice.. very well priced and decent sized potions .. 100% recommend to anyone who hasn't been before .. good parking aswell and a nice seating area

The best chippie around!! All the staff are friendly and welcoming. The portion sizes are spot on, you never go hungry and the food itself is fresh and always delicious

Tasty hot food not greasy never had a bad meal from here and reasonably priced

Food was delicious and freshly cooked, staff polite and friendly. Thank you.

Best chippy in area by a long way. Fish and chips always fresh and it's not expensive either. Only thing that would make it better for me would be they cook in lard not oil but get that's not an option for most. Oh and big wooden forks, serviettes and cardboard packaging +++

Staying for the night in the area and found this wonderful place. Very large portions of deliciously cooked cod and chips

Best Chip Shop around. Nice cooked food. Tastes fresh and clean.

Very good food and very pleasant staff 👍

Very clean and very nice food. The best takeaway I have used for years

Best fish and chips I have ever had friendly staff very clean

Can't believe the size of the portions the batter on the fish was so crispy definitely my now go to place for food

Our new favourite local chippy. Friendly service. Best fish and chips in town. Well priced and generous portions. Great quality and value for money

Nice staff.partner loves the kebabs. I'm not a fan of their chips but that's me rather than the chips being horrible. Partner loves the Chips

Haddock , is exceptional!! And great atmosphere

Lovely food, i had chips, peas, gravey & spring roll, had to wait a while for spring roll, my partner had chips & kebab meat, was all very tasty. Thank you. Can recommend.

Really good chip shop. Chips are great. Never had a bad meal or a problem with an order, can't fault them at all. By far the best chippy in the area (Ripley/condor) and we've been going since it opened.

Absolutely useless, rang up to say food hasn’t been delivered while on just it it said it had, they was so rude, took our money and not re delivering, got to sort it out with just eat now, the bloke on phone was pathetic, needs to learn some manners, joke of a man!! STAY AWAY

Cracking lunch deals very filling

Lovely food and after a problem with just eat they where so helpful and understanding

Very nice food best fish and chips in town and nice kebabs too!

Best chips in the area not soggy

Beautiful food. Freshly cooked, scorching hot, and lovely staff too

Today we ordered our tea. It was due at 5.55 but didn’t arrive until 6.30. By which time the lettuce had gone limp and slimey so had the cucumber on the kebab. The battered burger was not crispy it was covered in grease and floppy and cold. The chips were overcooked the only saving Grace was the peas and the fish cake. But all of it was cold. Worst meal we have had from there

We had our first Kababs from here tonight and they was one of the best we’ve had. The Nan bread was great. Not shy with the portions and the chips was cooked lovely and fluffy inside.

Food Was fresh, hot and really nice. It's difficult finding a decent chippy in the Ripley area but I would definately recommend this place. The shop is very clean and there are a couple of tables and chairs if you wish to eat in and the staff that have served me and my family on the few visits we have had have always been very efficient and friendly. Prices are average compared to other take out places in the area, but I think this is the norm now because of inflation. Sufficient parking outside aswell

Great value with friendly staff.

First visit. Staff polite and friendly. Shop very clean. Food lovely. I will be back on a regular basis

Nice food very clean polite staff

10/10 fish and chips, delivered quickly, hot and delicious.

This place just won't answer the phone for an order, 2 Saturdays in a row, yet drove by and empty shop except for staff, no customers ? so We've taken our business elsewhere, very strange that they can loose business for some weird no phone answering policy. Bizarre!!!

Very professional establishment, very kind and bubbly staff. The prices are very competitive aswell and the quality of food is banging. Will definitely be going back for another round.

I've definitely had better and worse from here. The only thing that was positive today was the fact that the fish was freshly cooked so it was hot and the fish was fresh. Apart from that the rest was luke warm

Tried this place for the first time since my regular chippie closed, warm welcome and my order was cooked fresh, the portions were more than i could handle, everything was cooked well. Will go again.

Really friendly staff great fish and chips

FIRST VISIT! We will definitely return! Really pleased with our lovely fish n chips, mixed kebab and sides! Thankyou for accommodating me with the rice flour option!

Wow. By far the best chippy I have ever eaten at.... it maybe my new guilty pleasure. Had a doner kebab yesterday with salad. The meat was so juicy. Salad was fresh. Ended up getting it again tonight as I just had to try the fish. Fish is very succulent and tasty. Chips were great and curry sauce was delicious. Also had a spam fritter and can't believe how tasty it was. Definitely our new go to chippy.

Food lovely service very very very slow.

Had to wait a short while to get served. I didn't mind waiting for the food as I knew it was going to be fresh. At busy times parking can be awkward, especially if you are not used to the area

Eaten here twice now. Like that fact you can sit in also. Kebabs are huge and really nice. Scampi and pies tried also. Very pleasant staff, polite and welcoming. No greasy food. Spotlessly clean. All round super.

The food was fantastic, all cooked very nicely and fresh done to order. Staff were friendly and provided a great service, will definitely be returning :)

Great food. We had a big order that was all good quality & freshly done, lovely staff. Great service :)

Beautiful food one of the cleanest places I've been in and lovely staff

The food was amazing. Very tasty. Large portions. Very nice welcome from all the staff. Clean lads of parking. Will be going again.

What a lovely experience we had at the Gate Fryer, we had a warm greeting by a lovely lady and ended having a lovely chat with the owner. We ordered a range of food from fish to kebabs for the family and everyone enjoyed the food. Food was piping hot and really tasty. Would recommend anyone to go. We will definitely go back again.

Very nice food we go every week & always it's nice

Piping hot food and cooked perfectly. Plus plenty. The first time i visited The gate fryer i was 100% happy. I have edited my comment because the last time i visited i was so disappointed, dry chips, etc, nothing was piping hot like the last time, such a disappointment. First visit better staff who cooked everything to perfection, second visit different staff and what a disappointment to their cooking.

Great value generous portions clean

Best chippy around. Friendly and attentive staff. Definitely going again.

Best kebab box meal ever!!!! Had to take half of it home in a doggie bag there was that much..... easily plenty for two to share and absolutely bang on..... juicy meat plenty of sauce and seasoning fresh clean crispy chips and a choice of nan or pitta bread.my lad hoovered his 8 chicken nuggets and chips too and was well impressed with his meal too.will be back in if we're up there again as we're 100 miles away but would we'll be worth the de-tour if we were nearby.much better value than then fast food outlets about 😎👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great to see this place get reinvented great location amazing service

Very good value meal and good to have tables inside to sit at. Plenty of parking Perfect stop off on the way back from the Peak District if you're travelling back to Nottingham or Leicester.

Lovely food been twice now and will definitely be going again

Called in and ordered food one evening on my way home. Really good portions giving value for money. Everything was wrapped well so it was still hot when I arrived home. There's plenty of parking, you can eat in or take out. Very friendly service, I will be calling in again.

Possibly the. Cleanest chippy around very pleasant staff nice food and fresh fish

3 I think is high. Was a mid2-3 star. I had the doner kebab naan and a portion of regular chips. The doner meat was really dry, the flavour was okay but far too dry. (I had this with 2 sauces too). The chips were okay at best, cooked nicely but they were lacking any sort of flavour. The food was okay but I think for the quality the prices are too high. Id probably not go here again.

Excellent service. Food great. The mixed meat kebab on a nan bread is out of this world.

After hearing a number of decent reviews from friends my wife and I gave them a go. Ordered a large haddock and a buttered cob with a large sausage. My wife had a deal on a fish and chip dinner. My wife’s was ok at best, the fish was over cooked and the chips were average to ok, they just tasted of the oil they were cooked in, the peas that came with it were so bright green they looked irradiated… my haddock was blooming awful, they left the skin on it and it was overcooked. I honestly only managed to scrape enough fish out of it to make a small fish cob with it. Half the batter was inedible due the skin and most of the rest was chewy because of how badly it was cooked. The sausage was what you’d expect - no real complaints. But really it wasn’t a good experience. Maybe they are better at kebabs? Definitely not with fish and chips. Will not be going back.

A brilliant chip shop the best 👌 I have been to a round Ripley and a round and about great friendly service and excellent staff cheers for now Brian 😀 👍

Ordered food via just eat, we knew they closed at 9pm so when food hadn’t arrived by 21:10 we called to see where our order was. They did answer and told us it would be with us in 8 mins! No idea how the woman knew what order was was on about, however we have given up waiting! 😡 useless! And why tell us it’s on its way if it’s not!

Really nice chipshop and there's seating area if you want to eat in...food is fantastic and good prices too

Can’t fault! Best chip shop we’ve ever been to. Food is always super tasty and the staff are ace 🧡💜

Best chip shop in the area, staff very friendly and polite ,fish cooked fresh great menu will be using again

Politeness all round with the staff and the kebabs are massive and great prices..really enjoyed my kebab deffo be going here from now on..

First visit to the gate fryer and wont be the last. Piping hot food very light and crispy batter not full of grease, loads of fish for the price and large potion of chips as well. Friendly staff and highly recommended. Thank you x

Very nice chips and curry, not greasy at all. Will be back soon

Excellent food, pleasant staff. Will be there regularly.

Ordered fish and chips but found what appeared to be worms within the battered fish. I was told this was “normal”. The following day I had bad stomach pains and sickness. I would avoid eating here. Terrible service and food.

Excellent fish and chips. Really enjoyed them.

Fast delivery, reasonably priced, lovely food. Definitely one of the best chippies in the area. Highly recommended.

Best chip shop around and good value for money

Just had chicken tikka kebabs absolutely lovely plenty of salad with it daughter had donor meat and chips again lovely... Very clean place staff very polite

Great price for fish and chips and the service is just as good. Always hot and fresh and great value for money.

Best in the area for fish and chips. Will be going back again soon!

Best chippy in the area. HUGE portion of kebab meat.

This is a great chippy! Fish is always fresh and the chips crispy which is what I like. Shout out to the friendly staff behind the counter also, would return in a heartbeat! Thanks Gate Fryer!

Fantastic food, I ordered Fish and Chips with mushy peas. Food was amazing, will definitely be going back here ASAP!

First time trying The Gate Fryer tonight.. But it definitely won't be my last. Very crispy light batter on the fish and fresh hot chips. Also very friendly staff, will definitely be returning and would 100% recommend.
