Tingley Bar Restaurant in Leeds

No drinks, no bread, no service. Rude staff who was only bothered cos the shop should have closed 5 mins ago.

Beautiful white large flakes of haddock had the special and chips,me and hubby shared and I still couldn't eat it all. It was amazing loved it

The best fish I have had in a very long time. Friendly staff. Wish them every success, will return on our next visit to the area.

I ordered a takeaway from just eat and when it arrived we found a blue bottle in the curry sauce! I have complained to just eat and had no official response. The meal went in the bin as we couldn’t trust the rest of the food. This is shocking I know accidents happen but I have given 2 days for them to respond and I’m still waiting please be aware and careful with this takeaway

Called in a few months ago to try it out and been back several times, the food is good the portions are good and the service is very good, and the prices are lower than the same in the area , well worth a try.

Used to go here alot pre pandemic, went back for the first time today and they did not disappoint. Hot fresh food and good prices!

For us the fish is the best around, and we are regulars. Really good, every time. Good portions of chips too.

I used to go here regularly, but after today I won't be going again. The fish was the worst I have ever had! 95% batter and a couple of mouthfuls of dried up fish!

Decided today that I would treat my business friends to fish n chips from Tingley Bar as I used to love there fish many years ago and wouldn't go anywhere else. But today I was very disappointed very much so, that my friends decided not to eat them.. reason being the fish batter was over cooked the chips were rock hard as if they were there from last night and re fried. They even hot the order wrong instead of fish and chips twice and 1 fish I received fish n chips twice and a bag of chips and was charged £15 ish..it wasn't until my PA arrived back to the office we realised their mistake... I'm not the one to complain but I must admit this time round Tingley Bar you disappointed me.. You must improve your products as you will loose valued customers.

We called into Tingley Bar fish shop and ordered fish and chips and potato scallops. All of the food had been warmed up again in and was so hard that it was impossible to eat. Unfortunately we were unable to return to the shop to make our complaint but will do so when we pass next week

Just bought fish and chips for five and they were all overcooked and dry as if they had been cooked hours before so won’t even go again.I like fish and chips and it might have been an off day but they won’t get my trade again

Just got home after ordering fish and chips to see this is the size of a portion of chips! Went in at half 8 and they were closing at 9 so don't know if the staff were saving the chips for their dinner. But having spent £15 on dinner very disappointed.

Last night called in for fish and chips for tea it was worst fish and chips ive ever had batter was dark brown hard when i managed to break inside fish was almost non existent what was there was grey really inedible chips were like slices of potato not like chips at all all curled up and whole lot was obviously left over from lunch highly disgusted never going back again . Really gone down hill used to be such a nice chippy .

Firstly the restaurant part has closed down, its just the chippy part now. Service is slow, you walk in and see the menu, everything virtually apart from fish and chips are to order. Went in on a lunchtime at 1pm, fish was so so, chips were dry and had been sat their. Place is very quiet now and the quality very poor. The card machine is always out of order, so basically their cash only. The restaurant part has gone and is now an indian restaurant run by different people (and is very good as a note, gate of india). Used to drive miles to come here when younger, now that i live 5 minutes away, i would not even make that trip to tingley bar chippy.

Thought of having traditional fish and chips and asked at counter which fat they use, the lady at counter said beef dripping. Purchased fish and chips , mushy peas and a can of soft drink. The fish looked like it had been cooked for a while and was very burnt and hard. The chips were hard too. Mushy peas were good. Didn’t eat it as it was awful.

Called in on my way home for some lunch. Decided on a fish buttie. Over priced with not a lot of fish. Seemed to be all batter. Mentioned i thought the fish buttie was over priced and i was met with. " well i didnt force you to buy it" from the lady behind the counter. Very rude, would not recommend.

In my opinion the best fish & chips around. Lovely meaty white fish in a nice crispy tasty batter. Very good chips & lots of them. The peas & curry sauce are good too. I have been coming here for years & will continue to do so in the future. I only use the out sales cannot comment on the cafe/restaurant.

Service was glum, food was ok and the atmosphere was better than i expected. I went out one day with with my partner and we enjoyed The Mermaid much more. I would use social media to show when upgrades have been made to the business

Fish and chips are ok but the place looks tatty and unloved. Not a very appealing facade which puts you off dining in. OK for a takeaway as it has it's own small car park. Prices are average for the area.

Spent two and-a-half hours battling massive traffic queues on the M1, my parents had a similar experience with the A1, we arrived hungry and with expectation at Tingley Bar Restaurant only to find it closed, permanently. This had been a meeting place for us for many years as the fish and chips were just stunning. Deep golden crunchy batter coating white perfectly cooked Haddock served with beef dripping cooked chips and mushy peas. Tea bread and butter completing the ensemble. If this has closed through lack of support then the local population should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves, if you don't use it then you lose it. RIP the BEST fish and chip restaurant that ever was.

Well day off work and could not be bothered to cook so went to Tinley fish bar and was so disappointed with the food we bought and it had to be put in the bin as we could not eat it as it had been kept warm for so long it was so hard and greasy will not be going again.

We have been going here for years. The restaurant downstairs has closed for refurbishment so we went upstairs to the lovely cafe where they serve fish and chips plus an extensive menu for breakfast and hot and cold sandwiches to eat in or take out. The staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The take away is always busy . Its a lovely family run business and if you give it a try you will keep going back.

Regularly use them for take outs and work dos. Particularly recommend the all day special for take outs

I normally go to the mermaid but it was closed the other night so I drove down the road to the Tingley Fish Bar. First of all the carpark is really scruffy and bit of rubbish all over the place. chear hand written signage telling you were to do order also looks like something from the 1980's. We went into the take way section with its door with the smashed glass, and entered a chip shop from 1985, i didnt really want to buy anything but we memeber of staf was stood there so I ordered. to be fair the chips looked amazing but I wanted to pay by card and I was told "we cant take cards after the restaurant is closed becasue we only have 1 machine. WOW its 2017 and its not hard to have 2 PDQ machines in a business. so if you want to pay with a card you have to do so before 7pm as its cash only after that. I would like to say that the girl service was really nice and friendly. So we left with no dinner and had some soup at home.

Well priced meal and lovely service. Nice part of Yorkshire and won't be left feeling hungry. Disappointing to see fish and chip not offer cod only haddock.

These are part of the tingley bar senior special three course. soup or fruit juice, fish and chips, and either ice cream or sherry trifle only £7.50 this also includes tea bread and butter. Brilliant offer.

My parents started coming here before I was born and still go now and I'm 46 yrs old I now take my family the fish is always fresh the batter is not too heavy I would recommend this fish and chip shop to anyone

You can tell why this restaurant and take away has been running for years. Good portions and great service! Won't go anywhere else for Britains favourite meal ❤️

We took the kids for a tea time treat and the fish and chips were delicious, children's portions were quite big , staff really friendly and helpful and quick service. It's a bit dated inside but we really enjoyed the food abd we will be visiting again.

Just been out for the morning and decided to call in for some lunch. 3 course pensioners special for £7.50 each. Starter choice of soup or fruit juice. followed by a good portion of Fish & Chips with tea bread & butter (you can have salad instead of chips) Then a choice of Trifle or Ice cream. All were generous portions and well worth the cost. we will definitely be recommending this to our close friends and going back again in the not too distant future. They also have a take away and judging by the amount of vehicles coming and going into the car park they were very busy.

Great quality food cooked perfectly!Friendly staff, good service & portions and cracking cuppa tea! Can't knock it!They even put the heating on for us on this typical uk wet day :)

Tingley was our go to fish and chip shop for take aways before we moved away from Leeds. It is now our go to restaurant when we return for a visit. Honestly is has improved greatly and the last few times we have been we have found the fish and chips to be outstanding. Fresh tasting, flaky but meaty haddock and gorgeous chips, fluffy on the inside and crispy outside made all the better by being fried in beef dripping.We have visited the mermaid three times and we very unimpressed. Whilst Tingley may not be as solubrious in its decor, it beats the local competion into submission with the food.

This place needs an overhaul urgently, the car park has potholes and rubbish blowing around, the bins were full and the outside of the place looks almost derelict, food ok but I have had better elsewhere and cheaper as well

For the first time ever, we went to this place yesterday and whilst I love fish & chips, I rarely go these days as whilst I enjoy eating them, I always get indigestion afterwards but not with this place.The staff were lovely and served quickly, efficiently and in a friendly manner. The batter was nice and crispy and the chips weren't insipid or underdone but a nice light brown colour and the fish was a substantial chunk. The mushy peas were yummy too. I particularly like the fact that they do different sized portions and senior portions at set prices.I have lived in the south for a while and really missed this quality of fish & chips.The own slightly negative thing would be that the place does need a refurb but it was clean and tidy. It's obviously seen better days but personally I'd rather come here than go to a posh place, pay thru the nose and have substandard food.I did like the quirky pictures on the walls though, it adds a bit of character.Plenty of parking and whilst you could get in to eat downstairs in a wheelchair, I think the loos are upstairs.

Tingley are thankfully back on track ,and appear to have taken great care in selecting the best fish and chip friers.We ate there today (Fri. Lunch) as we have for the last month and the meal was definitely back to their previous,excellent standard.Beautiful pure white haddock in the tastiest crispy batter ( no soggy pudding) perfect chips and mushy peas-Bliss !!In our view, the best Fish and Chips in the Leeds area-and,believe me ,we've tried 'em all.Lovely,friendly and efficient staff as usual-many thanks.

With a house full of plumbers and equipment I searched around for a good value local eatery to provide refuge. This was the first time I could chose from the 'Senior' menu and I settled for haddock which came with chips, a slice of bread and butter and a pot of tea with mushy peas as a side dish. Service was very prompt and pleasant and the food was cooked to perfection. With a price tag of £8.00 I find it hard to fault this venue although a defective light in the gent's cubicle made me wish for a torch!

We have eaten here for about 3 years on a Friday lunchtime,and have had some of the tastiest Fish and Chips available anywhere.Unfortunately ,things have changed, and the new Chef(s) have been either inadequately trained,or are just unable to deliver the beautiful crispy batter-no soggy undercooked bits-that was typical of Gareth's frying.We believe that Gareth still works here,but may have changed his hours of work,so we go in the Takeaway-check who's frying-if it ain't Gareth we're off!By the way, the staff here are brilliant -the Two Anns and Angela work very hard to deliver great service and are a credit to this business.Come back Gareth

Popped in here for a quick meal while away with work, and I have to say the chips were very very greasy, the fish was over cooked and the batter very thick.

After a tiring day in a meeting in Halifax we decided to call in here as it was on our way home.We have not been for a good few years but nothing has changed as far as quality is concerned,just wish it was a bit bigger & better layout,I'm disabled so that is from my point of view as tables are close together.We were very impressed with the quality of the meal ,also the quantity,we had the seniors meal,3 courses,soup,haddock & chips with tea & bread & butter,the choice of sweets were icecream with a sauce of your choice the other was trifle,both were excellent,this meal was £7 30p each,excellent value.Both waitresses were really nice,they were attentive & so helpful that goes a long way in making your dining experience a happy one ,more so with my disability .Hopefully it won't be long before we're back.Just one other thing the restaurant is closed on Mondays but out sales are open.

Travelling from Durham to North Wales, needed food and Google came up with this place. We ate our fish and chips out of paper in the car park, and they were good. Service was fine, friendly staff, prices reasonable. In Wales you don't get scraps, so we appreciated that. Will go there again.

We call here for fish and chips every time we visit Yorkshire and they never never let us down.Much better than what we can get in Suffolk.

Went in for a fish butty. Advertised outside as 'fish butty £2.60' and that's what drew me in but once inside 'if you want that one its a small. Or you can have the large'. I'm a big bloke, worked hard all morning - I wanted something that would keep me going the rest of the day. Said yes to the large and grabbed a can of coke. When handed the fish butty I was asked for £5.18 - £4.50 of which was for the butty.One word - extortionate. Here's a few more - misleading, ambiguous and a right royal rip off. I live near a fantastic chip shop. For a bigger fish butty they charge £3.40 - big difference plus taste far better and cooked to order. Near Tingley and fancy a bit to eat? Avoid the fish bar. Take a packed lunch to work.

Over priced for what you get the owners are rude there is one server who was very nice there is to with the same name it was the taller one she was so nice I went back a second time what a mistake never ever go again.

Not been here for years until just before Christmas, we did go to a "posher" one up the road, but the staff there were rude and the prices exorbitant, so we gave tingley bar a chance, Fish and chips great, 2 lovely ladies on a Saturday(staff not as good on sundays and portions not as big either, it is not posh but it is clean and friendly and very good F & Cs

I've been going to tingley fish bar for about 6 years on and off as I work in the locality. They serve traditional fish and chips and have a restaurant aimed at the older customer attached. The service varies considerable from moody older staff to younger gormless staff. The person frying the fish tends to huff and puff a lot, especially for food which is asked to be cooked to order.They do an interesting dish called the all day special which consists of chips, 3 battered fish bites, a sausage, and sauce / peas / gravy which fills and warms on a cold day but this is not always available (hence the huffing an puffing from the cook).Outside the premises on the wall there are various dishes listed with prices, however when you go in the shop these are not available at the prices stated, and infact the prices are higher. I guess this is designed to entice you in and then hope you can't be bothered looking elsewhere.The shop is small and a little scruffy. The parking and access can be difficult.So why do I keep going back? 1. The food is usually quite reasonable and hot.2. Being from Bradford I'm accustomed to apalling customer service in white British owned shops and chain stores. (I am white British just to clarify).

The Fish & Chips are really great and very good size portions too. Good Service, my Grandaughter said they were the best fish & Chips in Morley.

Come on Tingley Bar what has happened to you?... They used to do fab fish and chips at a good price. Re the Takeaway side ...Now it's run down and closes a lot earlier than what it used to. We called in for a cheeky bag of chips and scraps at about 8pm they now close at 9pm one evening and they were dried up, cold and tasted old, fatty and horrible like they'd been stood ages. I had to throw them away last time I go there such a shame.

Not been to Tingley Bar chip shop for ages,i ordered fish and chips and curry sauce,to be honest they were all good,the only bad thing i can say is my portion of chips was very very small,there must have been about a dozen chips,other than that a nice meal.The staff need to cheer up and the place is badly in need of a face lift.

They just can't seem to get it right?!Tonights fail relates specifically to their "Wednesday special offer" advertised outside as "Fish Butty £2.60". Myself and my colleague dropped in to order one this Wednesday evening to find we were charged £4.10 for the over-cooked delight. When I was shocked at the price and asked why this was the case, the girl stated in a completely ignorant and disinterested manner "you should have ordered a small fish for that offer". Nowehere outside on the advertisment, nor inside does it say this so how are customers supposed to know? Completely ripped off without a glimmer of remorse. I don't suppose anyone really cares that this was the fourth and last time I will ever go to Tingley fisheries. My work colleagues talked me into giving it one last go tonight but that's it for me and the rest of my team now. Last time I just wanted some fish bites but was told I could only have them as part of the daily special. I stated that I didn't want a sausage or sauce or chips with my fish bites (as per the daily special), so the girl told me I should order and pay the price for a special but ask for it without chips, sausage and sauce. The time before that I wanted sliced bread instead of a breadcake and was told they didn't have sliced bread on the premises despite the fact I could see an open loaf behind the counter. I even said I would pay the price of a breadcake for it (which would have bought them the equivalent of about 2 loaves) - the answer was simply "no".The food isn't all that great to continue going there. From now on, if the Miners isn't open (clearly the best in Morley!!), we shall be going without fish and chips on our shift and waiting till it is!Shoddy.

My son and his wife travel from Stoke and me and my wife from Doncaster for these fish and chips and we've never once been dissapointed !

It's been a while since I've visited Tingley Bar Fisheries but as I was in the area I thought I'd pay a visit for lunch. Looking at the menu there are other options such as steak, chicken and Lasagna but for me it had to be good old fish and chips. I was served quite a generous portion and the fish was of a good size.Overall good value and an enjoyable meal.

Chips were good, however very disappointed by the quality of the fish. When opened the wrapping we thought it was a badly cooked sausage! Gone downhill

The best fish and chips going, we visit tingly bar on a regular basis because of the good quality food and the friendly service. Would very much recommend.

This place has lovely fish and chips. They have recently increased the prices, but have not made any changes to the shabby interior. There are far more brighter and modern places to visit.

Being new to Gildersome we asked where the best chippie was and also looked for reviews locally. Tingley bar looked good so off we toddled. Large car park, we went in and stood about for a couple of minutes waiting for the waitress to seat us. Order was taken pretty quickly with the food coming pretty soon after. All the food was fresh, well cooked and very hot. Decor is out of the eighties but hey it's a fish and chip restaurant after all and the food is good.pie was

Went Saturday 8 February at 1 30 pm expecting to have pensioners meal as usual but times had changed pensioners meals now start at 2pm elderly people like their lunch before then did not stay will not be going again plenty of nice fish shops around

We bobbed in on Sunday after shopping at asda and the place was empty because they were expecting a booking for 52 within half an hour. we ordered and the very unfriendly and moody waitress asked if we wanted drink before or with the meal...we opted for with. the bready arrived and practically got thrown at us. then the food came. it's wasn't very good and the chips wwere scrappy. half way through we had to ask for ourt drinks and she looked like we'd asked her for diamonds..... then it came. the next people that came in also got their bread thrown at them because i jumped when i landed and also had to ask for their drinks.The waitress was the main ruin but the food wasn't much better on this occasion.

Excellent food and staff are very helpful and cheerful, we eat there most Saturdays and the fish and chips are to die for. I take my 8 year old grandaughter and my pensioner mother and all in all its a lovely experience my mum looks forward to her lunch every week.

Good selection of affordable meals. Senior citizens specials exceptional value. Adequate car parking in a good location close to motorway network. Waitress service cheerful and friendly and the food is scrumptious!! Having left the area over 40 years ago we still regularly return for a meal here with other members of our family who also live away.

Today is halloween,the kids are on school holidays so i being grandad decided to take my grandsons out for their tea before they went trick and treating with their mum.I fancied fish and chips and so did they.Not having been to Tingley Bar Fisheries for years i thought i would give it another chance as the last meal i had there was quite poor.I looked at the menu and prices it looked ok to me.It was pointed to me the prices had just gone up,but still the prices looked ok for me especially for the children,just £3 a head.My ordinary size fish was £8 plus which sounded ok.We all got bread and real butter and a drink each.The kids had a can of their chosen pop each and i had pot of tea.When the kids meals came i thought what good value,about the size of normal takeaway fish and chips from the shop.When mine came i was slightly disapointed in the size not alot bigger than the ones ordered for the kids and i was paying £5 plus more.I soon forgot about the size of my fish when i tasted it,Delicious,cooked perfect,hot and fresh,even the chips just as i like them.I added on a curry sauce and the whole bill only came to £15 something not expensive for all three of us.Just to sum up,Tingley Bar Restaurant gave me good service,good food,and value for money especially for kids.Thankyou Steve from Bradford.

Best fish & chips in leeds NOT a gourmet experience! Tired old decor but clean & tidy. Not suitable for a special occasion or anything but certainly fine for a sit down casual meal.Good value, often rather old clientele getting their obligatory OAP fish and chip offer, friendly waitress (same one every time.) Can apparently get quite busy certain nights, Fridays for example, so get there early. Honestly great fish and chips, I'm not a fish a chip fan really but these are lovely and probably the only ones I'll eat! We come here from east leeds for a treat sometimes. Reasonable valueGo and see for yourself as its not everyone's cup of tea but I'd certainly recommend.

Fish and chip restaurant in the traditonal genre.Good value for money, staffed with Gud 'Ole Yorkshyre Lasses - Ey Up tha nars!!!!good all round value

its been there quite a while and we have been a few times, just a good value place, maybe not the best food but certainly not bad at all

nice place all in all, food ok, as is the service etc yes would go again. the price is also very reasonable

Established many years ago and still going strong. Good quality fish and chips to eat in the restaurant or take out. Always fresh fish and freshly cooked chips. Sometimes for a change we have ordered scampi and chips. Just as good as the fish and chips.

Lovely fish and chips, always red hot and fresh. Great value,, fish, chips, tea, bread and butter £5.50 for the smaller portion which is just the right size, enough to leave you full but not too much that you stuff yourself unnecessarily and end up in a 'food coma'. Yes the decor is little dated but it doesn't pretend its something that it's not. It's just good food at a good price with friendly staff.

The fish is very nice if cooked and served immediately. Chips if you can call then that we're awful. They are cut by machine and there are lots of tiny off cuts that are oily and overlooked. These should be removed or boiled mashed and used in fish cakes. The chips were tasteless and dry and I am sure mine were reheated or they tasted like it. What a shame the chips let the fish down which was of a good standard. I ate about 1.45 after lunch time rush so that's why I say fish is better eaten immediately. The place looks tardy now and could do with some TLC. If you go at busy times when fryer cooking all time and have the small bits of chips removed you could call it average or have with salad. Not overpriced. After this trip I will. It be visiting again.

The restaurant is tired and dated, but in a time of crisis, will not be the only one. The lunchtime menu is good value, and the fish and chips served, were tasty. When in the area I will return.

Yes, the decor is dated and tired but the fish & chips are first class. Straight from the pan, tasty haddock with a crisp batter and superb hot chips, bread & butter and tea for £5.25 (that's for Oldies!) and excellent service. What's not to like? Just the business on a cold, snowy lunchtime in January.

Great fish and chips. Good prices, fresh fish, crisp chips. Great tasting fish and chips is really difficult to beat on a cold day!Wonderful

The takeaway chippy is OK , but don't venture into the restaurant if you can help it. Really old, very tired, needs a good re-furb and what is OK for a takeaway is definitely it good enough for a sit down meal. Most people head up to the Mermaid near Morley Asda for an almost-Harry Ramsden's experience if you like that sort of thing.

Having had Tingley Bar recommended to me, I was massively disappointed with the place.soggy chips, rubbish batter, stupid wait time to be served, all round poor.There are plenty of better chippies locally, based on my experience I would and have avoided ever since.It inst expensive, but then none of the other local ones are so cant even recommend it on cheapness.

Only place I go for fish and chips. Reasonably priced, great food and friendly staff!! What more do you want.

Just off the main road through Morley and towards Tingley, you'll probably pass it by without spotting it. We only spotted it as we waited at the traffic lights and my wife saw a sign advertising the restaurant. It is basically a fish and chip shop with a restaurant attached. It was getting near to closing time when we arrived but the waitress found us a table. The staff all seemed very pleasant and the food was excellent. Fish and chips, bread and butter and a pot of tea for £5.50, mushy peas extra. A tip though, you only need to order a single pot of peas between to of you. We ordered one each and it was a little too much for us.Fresh cooked fish and chips, very good value.
