The Strawberry Pig in Cheshire East

Was looking forward to some fish and chips and only realised the Strawberry Pig was under new management when I arrived. I read the reviews whilst waiting and wondered if I would be disappointed with my food. I wasn’t. It was beautiful. I hope the business does well.

Just had the fish and chips WOW just wow what a difference the fish was beautiful and the chips are awesome

Very good fish, fresh well cooked, juicy and soft, as it should be! highly recommend.

Really good quality fish and chips and fantastic portions. The new owners are very polite and offer good service. Alex always comes and says hello to my infant son and splits out his own portion of chips so they don't get covered in salt and vinegar. We don't go anywhere else for our F+C takeaway

Fantastic freshly prepared food, fantastic service and can’t wait to visit again, thanks Nick.

Fresh clean and really good quality food, Nick severed us and was a great guy, I really recommend you try this chip shop, fantastic.

Beautiful fish freshly cooked to order with lovely light batter , fantastic crispy chips that have been double dipped ,perfect mushy peas, The best fish and chips I’ve had in a long time. I would highly recommend. Alex the owner, is a great guy too.

The best fish and chips I've had for years! I am fussy and to be honest a chippy lunch these days is usually a let down. However this was the best chippy lunch I have had for many years. My mum had cod which was bigger than expected and the batter was so crispy but not greasy. I had chips and gravy, and the chips weren't those ridiculously fat ones that resemble a roast potato like many chip shops do nowadays, but normal size chippy chips. They were crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. Gravy was nice too. The staff were friendly, helpful, generous and caring. I will definitely go back for more. I regret not taking a photo to share. Absolutely gorgeous food and a good price considering the size of the fish.

Strawberry Pig is a delightful find, offering some of the best fish and chips in town. The service is exceptional and efficient, with friendly and attentive staff who make you feel at home. It’s a must visit for anyone craving delicious, quality fish and chips.

Really good and tasty food. I've been before the new management and the food is really better now. Can't recommend enough.

Excellent food, I’ve been few times with my family and all of us love the food there. The chips just perfect! The service is amazing, lovely and friendly staff.

Think it has new owners food was terrible, used to be nice but terrible won't be going again, feel sick off it

Arrived after closing time but still served me. Great chips and battered sausage. Just moved to the area, now my local chippy

Alex and Simon give a really Friendly service , spotlessly clean , chips are amazing cooked fresh would definitely recommend !! oh and they are open at lunch even better

Best fish & chips ever .The batter is perfection. Chips are tasty and generous portion, Friendly staff ,thanks for delicious food

Bring back John…. Food quality has gone down while prices have gone up

Very friendly staff and nice food.

I spontaneously went there for something to eat and was very impressed by the nice people who work there. The food was super delicious. I definitely recommend...

Fantastic Team ! Alex was very friendly , food and service was great ! 👏🏻

We were on holiday and stopped by chance... and it was a pleasant discovery! Convenient parking, children's menu and excellent value for money and friendly helpful staff Recommended stop 😉😛

I thought I would try the fish and chips under the new ownership of the Strawberry Pig, as I knew it would be a hard act to follow since John retired after 30 years. OMG, I don't know what they cook the fish in, but it was disgusting!! I paid £6.90 for a fish I had to throw in the bin. Please come back John!!!!

Alex Simon and Lola are soo friendly and the food is just how a chippy is meant to be. Definitely gonna be a regular customer

The Strawberry Pig is under new management and they are doing a fantastic job! They have already been involved in new events for Poynton and have approached them with relish and a smile. The new owners are so friendly and helpful - they can't do enough and are clearly so passionate about their business... and most importantly, they make an excellent portion of chips! Fresh and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, just as they should be! I'm a veggie so can't comment on the fish, but the cheese and onion pie was lovely, and they even do a huge, delicious spring roll which came piping hot! Thanks to all at the Pig, I'll be back!

Second time that i have posted this review now SOMEBODY MUST HAVE TAKEN IT OFF???.been going in this chippy for years now as the food was great although in Comparison to other chippys it was quite expensive but after all you get what you pay For. Previous owner has left now and the business has been taken over by somebody else I went in for my usual fish chips and peas only to be charged an extra £2.50 for cold Chips watered down peas and bland tasting fish,I CONFRONTED THE OWNER and Was told that his prices had been increased by his supplier which is utter codswallop Pardon the pun, 50 P hike in price for fish fair enough but £2.50 cmon your taking the michael thats the last time ill be going in there Not a patch on the previous owners food,and if this post gets taken down again ill be Sticking it up again

I have been coming to The Strawberry Pig with my family since I was a little girl and I’m pleased to say that the new family ownership with Alex and his team are fantastic - very friendly staff, perfectly cooked fish, with very generous portions of chips. The curry sauce and potato scallops which Alex recommend I try were also delicious and might just be my new lunchtime treat! If you live in Poynton or surrounding areas you won’t find a better chippy than this - support a family run local business and give it a try - you won’t be disappointed! Sabrina xoxo

The strawberry Pig has been taken over by a delightful family. We had a very long day and found these guys and they just finished our day off perfectly. Food was great and the service went above and beyond. The gravy was scrumptious! A thoroughly enjoyable tea…thanks guys ❤️

Alex was really nice and welcoming when we came in even tho it was after close time plus service was great

Amazing customer service from Alex ! And the spicy curry sauce was like no other. 10/10

Been going to this chippy for years while John had it The new owner increased the price of fish chips and peas by £2.50 I wouldn’t mind if the food was as good as when John had it but it isn’t in my opinion the peas were watery as though watered down chips were scrappy fish was tasteless so that’s the last time I’ll be in there

We would like to thank Alex and his team at The Strawberry Pig Poynton for supporting our school bingo night! They supplied fish, sausages and chips on mass for the event and it was enjoyed by everyone. Their food was delicious - really fresh and tasty! We would recommend The Strawberry Pig for anyone looking for fresh fish and chips. They are a fantastic local fish and chip shop and the staff are so welcoming and helpful

John retired after all these years, new owner nice guy food excellent quality keep it going.

We stopped at the Strawberry Pig twice on our stay in Poynton and loved it! The food was delicious and you get a lot of food for the price! The service was friendly and quick as well. I wish they had seating at the restaurant but it was nice to be able to eat at home too.

We had a really nice fish and chips takeaway, the fish was very crunchy, no grease and tasty as the chips. Really nice and friendly staff.

Great food. Had jumbo haddock. With slice of lemon 🍋 nice touch Large chips 🍟 £11.00 will be back again.

Large portions, great value, fast service. The fish was large, tasty and very moist with a delicious crispy batter. Chips were cooked to perfection and gravy was gorgeous with the right hint of herbs and spices. Highly recommended

Best chippy in Poynton and the surrounding area! The chips are top notch!

Always excellent fish and chips

Lovely fish and chips! My favourite far!

Best chippy around, fab chips and great fish

Great fish and chips in town. Owner was very pleasant and customer service was great. I will return again. Thank you for delicious fish and chips 😊👍

Great fish n chips, Scampi n Chips - don't forget the Mushy peas and Curry Sauce

Very good chippy defo fresh fish and very good quility

Used to come here but now go poynton fish bar, superior food, superior portion size and better and more experienced service

Great fish and chips. Great service.

Fresh fish & chips always excellent

Usually go to thd chippy opp. Aldi but thought ill give this 1 a try...never again, very small portions...im going back to my other chippy i love

Excellent Fish and Chips. Thanks!

Disappointing! If you are going to serve chips and gravy make sure there is gravy on it - not just a tablespoon. New madras curry sauce was terrible - you need to work on your flavours. Chips undercooked. Inexperienced staff that don’t know what they are doing, not their fault. Make sure your staff are properly trained. Has a great reputation as a chippy - I’m yet to be convinced. I will try again in a few weeks

Terrible service and they even got the order of just fish and chips wrong...!!! Unfortunately didn't realise till I got home, then when I called to explain they weren't the slightest bit bothered. Would not recommend.

Beautiful freshly fried Haddock with light but tasty batter. Buy even better the chips are the best I have tasted in months....not the likes of French fries but proper chunky chips perfectly fried. Brilliant!

Been twice now the last time was yesterday the 23rd we won't be going again !! The fish was just batter and awful the chips was not cooked properly and the gravy had a weird taste to it ... I gave it the benifit of the doubt last time but clearly this is just a continuation of badly cooked food and at £20 a time its rubbish

Best fish and chips l have ever had!!!

Food and service was amazing. Had fish and chips, heavy handed with the portion of chips I couldn’t finish them all. Will be back again soon. Thank you

Once again, closed early without warning. Shuts before closing time, man in front tried door, told they had just shut, at 7:50?.Neither he, nor we were happy. A few weeks ago went in with 20 mins to spare, told that everything had been put away. Lazy and not a way to keep customer's happy. Well, you have lost a customer for good now.

Disappointing meal tonight despite being early 5:15. Fish was dry and overcooked, stuck to the batter so couldn’t cut it off. Chips were far too many and only just cooked through but the curry sauce was very nice. I shan’t waste £7plus there again. At least when I spoke to the manager he did apologise.

Great food and staff friendly. parking not to bad as it was late on worth every penny would buy from again.

THE best chippy in town. Simply fabulous.

Good chip shop. Parking available nearby. More expensive than neighbouring outlets in Poynton and Hazel Tribe

Great chippy, and a really good Covid-aware service. Highly recommended...

We cycled out of Macclesfield along the Middlewood Way in order to try the Strawberry Pig. The shop (and the staff!) were all very well presented. We ordered 2 x lightly battered haddock, chips and mushy peas and found a place on our way home to eat them on our way home. The food was excellent, fresh fish and chips, which is always a great dish.All the best to the owner and staff of the Strawberry Pig - keep up the good work......

Had a fab fish, chips and mushy peas tea to celebrate the end of the week. The batter on the fish was crisp and fresh and so were the chips They continue to provide quality food, then again they have been serving the hungry people of Poynton for over 30 years! Nice to see they’ve gone biodegradable with their serving trays and bags. Highly recommended for your chippy tea!

Full disclosure, I love this place. Its the best fish and chips ever. The owner always has time to speak to you as you stand there opened mouthed wondering what delights to indulge in. I still havent been able to get beyond the fabulous fish, in incredible batter, fluffy yet crisp chips, perfectly accompanied by his own special recipe mushy peas. Anyway, I felt i just had to write about this place after my annual pilgrimage, as they have just introduced paper only packaging, refillable drinks, and even forks that look and feel like quality plastic, but are actually made of some sort of resin that will degrade pronto when disposed of. Well done Strawberry Pig. Lets hope others follow your example. See you soon!

Very good Fish and Chips with large portions. The small orders are perfect for anyone who doesn't have a massive appetite like me! I also like the fact that they do a Senior Special on Fridays, very popular at lunchtime.

Excellent food and service as always. Best chippy in the world!

Outstanding fish and chips delivered in an environmentally friendly way. Who could ask for more? The food is great, the staff are a delight, and they're not lobbing a lot of plastic into the environment.

Unfortunately Marie wasn't feeling to well and didn't want to go out for a meal so take away was on the cards.Off I went to the Strawberry Pig and ordered Cod, chips and peas twice. The fish was cooked to order but it didn't take long. Staff were polite and courteous.Once home we tucked in fabulous food

Chips are not always fresh, sometimes there warmed up from previous.

Cracking fish and chips. Been going for decades and never missed a beat.

Very nice chippy. Owner is top class. Only con I could complain about is it's not Birmingham prices. Highly recommended though

Great portions. Comfort food. Not too greasy and reliable quality. Only 4 stars as it’s quite an expensive chippy.

Not cheap, but it's a good takeaway fish and chips shop. There's specials available some of the time, and non-fish options

Generous portions, crispy batter, proper chips and old skool peas. When the pigs frying he’s frying right!

Didn't this shop used to be in Wilmslow ? They had a board up with a rhyme on it that began, "The strawberry pig of St Tropez....." The rest I have forgotten and would love to have it again to remind me of those times.

Fairly ordinary fish and chip shop. There are worse and better.

Excellent food every time, I love this chippy👍👍👍 I would definitely recommend the Strawberry Pig.

We were in town and were looking for somewhere to get our evening meal. We came across the Strawberry Pig and decided to give it a try. The prices were very expensive but we were a captive audience. The food was okay, I have had worse. Will not call again.

It is many years since I have had fish and chips from the above. The shop name has always stuck in my mind ( a marketing success), but mainly the fish and chips - delicious. Not to much batter.

I've been eating at The Strawberry Pig since I was a child and it never faulters the fish is always fresh and the portions are generous. Its the kids favourite place for a chippy and although there are sometimes long queues at busy times it's a sign of how popular the place is

Fish was lovely but the chips were full of eyes

Delicious definitely the best around potnton

By far the best fish and chips locally. Always friendly service. The freshest fish and delicious chips. 5 stars all the way!

Great food, friendly staff. Always cooked to order so you may need to wait, but it's well worth it. N

We have always been pleased with The Strawberry Pig. Really good fish and chips. Great gravy too! Parking to the rear, which is handy.

Great chippy with friendly staff

Not many places you can get Salmon & chips!

Called in Saturday night 16 people in-front of me, always a good sign. 2 young staff serving food who were going a fab job, very friendly (but not to chatty) communicating to each other (so not duplicating work) & quick. Was a little shocked at the owner (who was doing the cooking) he 'barked' a couple of times while I was in the Que at the staff to be quicker. Not the way to keep your staff happy - felt really sorry for them as you could tell it unnerved them.

Great fish and chips would highly recommend

Great fish and chips cooked to order. The batter nice and crisp. Plenty of staff to handle the demand.

Everyone is friendly and the food is lovely

The best fish and chips for miles around.

Extremely friendly staff offering a fine chip shop selection including all the traditional favourites eg fish, pies, sausage, fish cakes & scampi. I've tried most of the menu now & remain convinced that this remains one of the best chip shops on the north west. Limited parking but there is parking close by at the library located near Waitrose.

Lived local for 20+ years, always freshly cooked fish, I prefer Haddock which is cooked to order, served with a lemon wedge, a large portion of chips is ample for 2 persons in our house.

Been to this Fish and Chip shop for around 18 years. Always been fantastic. Staff are friendly and helpful and the food is always fresh and cooked beautifully. I have tried the majority of the menu over the years and haven’t found a single thing I haven’t enjoyed. I brought my other half as I wanted her to try it and she also loved it! It’s a regular occurrence for us. Keep at it Strawberry Pig!

Good value, very tasty. No battered sausage though.

Best fish and chips in the area.

Everyone there was really friendly and helpful. The shop was nice and tidy with there being a vast selection of foods to buy if you do not want haddock or cod. they also put a lovely amount of salt and vinegar on my fish and chips

Been many times since the previous review but after a long day and not wishing to make the effort to cook we went for fish and chips.

First visit but disappointed with the limited menu. Won't bother going back.

Pie was very dry very disappointing

Great take-away food is what you want when you fancy not cooking one evening and The Strawberry Pig does not disappoint! Golden, crunchy batter with firm, flaky fish beneath and chips to die for. Tasty to the very end!
