We were passing through Great Eccleston and decided to try the fish bar and so glad we did. Friendly quick service. Freshly fried fish and chips with a proper chip shop curry. The fish was lightly battered and delicious. Also very reasonably priced. We will definitely return.

Our order was a big order. We drove 10 mins to get there, then 10 mins to get home. Once getting back at home we realised we had no chips at all, we ordered 4. We did thr 10 minute drive back with our order number slip and receipt. We explained to the lady bagging up and another lady came over. She asked us what we ordered and I listed it. She said that what we ordered didn't add up to what was on the receipt and did we definitely not have the chips. I was so confused. We just wanted to eat our £55 order!!! No apology or anything! The just walked off saying next time ring up straight away....ACTUALLY we rang continuously and no one answered the phone. We enjoyed the food once we got back home but the whole experience of getting the food overshadowed it, sorry

Well I almost shut the door on this place last year and was determined not to go back - but like a mug I went back tonight. Queuing outside waiting for your number to be shouted only to have it thrown in a bag at you is appalling. My meat pie was microwaved so much that it was rock hard it would have broken the chippy window if I had returned and threw it at it. This used to be so nice here and all I can say is -I should have known it was bad after the last2 times I visited last year. What a dreadful awful place this is - they have no idea what they are doing - they should aim to be the very best but I don’t hold out much hope. No customer service , no finesse , can’t fry , - won’t be going back EVER.

Had dinner here tonight. Ordered small chips and a medium sized Haddock. The fish was smaller than a regular fish you would get from any other chippy. The underside on the plate was very greasy and soggy. A woman on the table next to me ordered a small fish and I overheard her saying it was tiny. Very disappointed with this place as it has good reviews. The greasy fat is still repeating on me 5 hours in! Not good. I did mention the portion size to the server but will this be rectified? Probably not.

Visited here on a pre planned coach trip following the Blackpool illuminations. Everything was organised beforehand and had great communication. We were accommodated brilliantly. We sat down in staggered sittings, as there were still some customers eating, but it was fine as everyone ate and had a lovely time. The staff were efficient and friendly and the food was excellent. An absolutely great time had by all.

I’m not sure what they do to their fish, or what they clean their food prep surfaces with, but on two occasions now the fish literally tastes of soap. More often than not, it’s fine. Not close to the standard a few years ago, but ok. After the last soapy fish we vowed never to go back. Tried a few weeks ago and I’d go so far as to say it was ‘good’, but tonight…another soapy fish! So soapy in fact that every member of the family tried it and immediately spat it out. So this time, there won’t be a next time. Just awful.

The fish and chips are generally good but this week the batter was soggy and probably a little underdone. However, my main complaint is that every time I dine in the restaurant I come out with my hair and clothes smelling of frying food. This is unacceptable.There is no physical barrier between the chip shop and the restaurant so the smell of frying food permeates the air the result being that the greasy smell clings to everything.It would seem that a better extraction system needs to be put in place...and soon

We called in this evening for a chippy tea and decided to eat in , I have no complaints about the food at all , everything was freshly made and red hot . What spoilt it was the appalling service , the young man who served us either didn’t want to be there or couldn’t be bothered he brought a cup of tea to the table with a tea bag in but no spoon ! We both looked at each other as the knives and forks were dropped onto our table , this was followed but the food which was fine then when I went to pay he just said how much it was -no please then as he dropped the change in my hand he walked away no thank you ! Appalling! Shame too as team members like this spoil it for others the owners need to set up some mystery shoppers and get a real idea of who’s serving ,

Arrived a few minutes before closing. Nobody served me and all still appeared busy. As with all fish and chip shops, I had to prompt a member of staff to order a fish. Was stood for 10 minutes before being served. By the time I was eventually asked my order, I also asked for a sausage and chips (as very aware these are in most takeaways readily available). I was very rudely told 'You can't have a sausage'. All they could offer was a pudding. I was in shock by the way I had been spoken to. So rude. No customer service. They scraped the last of the chips. £11 for fish, pudding and 2 pathetic portions of chips (small portion of scraps) peas and a curry sauce. Very disappointing.

I have loved fish and chips, from a fish and chip shop, since I was a little lad. While, over the years, across the UK, Ireland and Queensland Australia (latter consistently superb) I have tasted mediocre and poor fare, I have also been served some very good and truly excellent food from such shops. The Great Eccleston Fish Bar is in the very top of the my list for serving first class 'really tasty fish. We once lived quite near Great Eccleston and visited the fish shop every Friday for a very long time. A move to Scotland resulted in us being near a 'Chippy' which had won the 'Best In the UK' title and it was good, very good, but not as good as that the one in 'Great Ecc'.

This is an excellent, small, traditional fish and chip restaurant that we've visited several times; and we are not locals. What we like is the light crispy batter, the firm texture of the chips, a choice of 3 fish sizes (and chip quantities) and quality of the fish itself. They are probabiy the best fish and chips in Lancashire and therefore the world! We found the service to be friendly and attentive and (less traditionally) we enjoyed a glass of wine with the meal.

We have been meaning to call in here for a while now - but never seemed to be passing at the right time for us needing food. However having taken our old car out for a little run in the sunshine this week we were happy to see their attached restaurant was still open and had two portions of excellent fish and chips. Freshly cooked and served in a comfortable and clean restaurant area which seems to be well supported by the local community. My small portion was just right - and the piece of fish was a nice small but thick piece - not a tiny thin piece that I often receive, and the standard size portion was again very good. Up to now our favourite fish and chip fix has been Middle Chippy in Bispham, but the small portions on our last visit disappointed so this will probably be our new favourite now. Looking forward to our next visit

We have been visiting for several years and haver had chips that have been generally fantastic, often some of the best we have ever had. However the chips can be hit and miss and the ones we had recently were simply too small. We have to go home and top up on sandwiches, crisps, ice cream to fill the gap! The gravy is normally excellent but again this seemed below par. We took someone who was sceptical about Gt. Eccleston to try to prove him wrong but we were unable to. Please give larger portions and improve the gravy to how it was in the past.

I used to visit this fish and chip restaurant regularly prior to moving to the village some 5 years ago. The staff are pleasant and cheerful and I usually 'eat in' on Friday night when a number of locals and visitors have the same idea.The standard is always high and I usually chose lightly battered hake (or large haddock), chips and mushy peas. The large haddock will be too much for some appetites but is no problem for me! As the Fish bar is licensed is also possible to order a wine or beer to have with your meal. Overall the food and surroundings are great.

Quite simply, the best by far. Top class fish and chips, which can be enjoyed with a glass of wine - or non alcoholic drinks if preferred. Pleasant and efficient service. A testament to its popularity is the fact that at 5 pm, when it opens up for evening service, there's a queue outside the door - and there's often a queue later on, waiting for tables to become available. Don't need to say any more.

As an ex-pat, it has been 40+ years since I was in Gt Eccleston. The village is still quaint and interesting. We tried the 'chippy' on the basis of the excellent reviews on Trip Advisor and we were not disappointed. The fish, Cod in this instance, was beautifully cooked with just the right amount of batter. The portion was huge; a complete side of fish. It was to die for. I haven't tasted chippy fish so fresh for decades. The chips had just the right amount of crunch which, when doused with vinegar, brought back so many memopries of 'chippy' dinners.

This is one of the jewels in Gt. Eccleston's crown. A great takeaway or eat in fish & chippy. Reasonably priced, the food is always hot and tasty. I can thoroughly recommend it if you're in the area and looking for something to eat.

We visited here at 5pm, the place was packed out. Served pleasantly and fairly quickly, we chose cod (only available as a massive portion) chips, mushy peas with bread and butter......and cheese and onion pie with the same. Hollands pies are not my favourite, I find them all pastry but acceptable.

Whilst visiting family we visited this chip shop under their recommendations. I had the meat and potato pie which was to die for!!! Husband had the fish and chips and said they were lovely too. Chips slightly greasy but lovely all the same!!

This was the first time in my life that I have managed to eat all of my fish and chips as I usually give up half way through! This meal was too delicious to leave any! The gravy and curry sauces we had tasted homemade, absolutely yummy! We will definitely be visiting again.

Fantastic fish and chips with great service. Will certainly be back for perfectly cooked lightly battered meaty cod combined with quality chips and mushy peas.

Have been visiting this Fish and chip restaurant for several years and believe it was time to put pen to paper to highlight what a great place to eat it is. The standard of food is consistently excellent and reasonably priced. The fish especially is delicious. Service is very good and the restaurant is always very clean. Recommend it to anyone.

Sit down or take away. Damn good fish and chips (and pies/scampi). Fantastic batter and (sometimes) chips that you can only dream about (crisp on the outside, fluffy in the middle). If you want lemon on your scampi, take your own. This one is one of our favourite eateries.

Visit the restaurant fairly regularly, and did so again today! The food here is consistently perfect, by far the best fish and chips I've ever had, not to mention the amazing home made steak and kidney pudding, mushy peas and gravy which are all fantastic! Best enjoyed with a glass of Dandelion and Burdock :D

We visited the Great Eccleston Fish Restaurant to eat in which was really good as they were queueing out of the door on the take away side. We found a table straightaway (having said that it was the only one free), our order was taken almost immediately and the drinks were served quickly. The food followed shortly after, it was hot and very tasty. I would certainly go again.

Have tried this chippy a number of times, I always order a large chips that I normally eat over three meals. When I got to the shop it was busy. Another lady before me ordered a regular chips portion and then i ordered a large portion. a guy served both of us and when served the regular portion to the other lady i was like ooh not a bad size. When my turn came I noticed the portion this time was more regular size and I reminded him that I ordered a large portion and he said that’s a large size. Only to get home and realised the large chips were like half the portion I usually get. Not happy with the service, maybe it’s time I go to another chippy shop.

First visit to Thorpeys. Let’s just say it’s traditional. Ultimately it’s all about the food & it definitely deliveries on that front. Generous portions & well cooked. Peas tasted particularly good, reminded me of my nans mushy peas… All in all, good job!
