Absolutely disgusting!! Chips soggy with grease and dark brown, obviously last nights warmed up, not edible!! Battered sausage was dripping with oil, as with the chips the bin has been fed!! Never again!! The two staff working were more interested in chatting to the blokes! It lives up to name ' one star baz's grease emporium ' 🤢

What a shambles, staff (some) don't know what they are doing can't remember order totally hilarious observation, cash only! Hmrc !! Packed with customers, talking over each other organised !! Never. Would I return? Defo no no some 100 meters better fish and chips in town centre.

I just think that it's the best chippy I have ever been to... We go about once a month and are never disappointed... Great choice and ample portion sizes...

Sadly we both agreed that this was the worst fish and chips I can remember eating in a long time. Although it is local it is not the normal shop that we would use. Both the fish and chips were really dry although the fish was cooked freshly, it was overcooked. We will not be returning and would recommend others to use the Chip shop in Trentham. Also above air conditioning units need wiping as they are really dirty

Car park can be busy. Never had a bad chippy dinner from here. Drive to Walton when visiting family rather than use their local chippy as the quality here is excellent. Never had a bad meal. Freshly cooked Fish and chips but the short wait is worth it

We come here often. Now sometimes you're fortunate and get a really nice delicious fish that has just been cooked to excellency, then other times you get a dried up, bland, and chewy fish as if it's been lying on a sandy beach for several years beforehand. That said the staff here are always always pleasant, so would come back and hope that I'll get a good catch

No option to use cards. In todays society, Really? Charged £10.60 for 2 pies, chips and Peas. Rip off, considering the mushy peas are grey, pies are microwaved and stored in the display heater as they have no texture. Really poor. Won't be visiting again, hopefully the sandwich shop/ butchers next door will open for longer.

Went tonight, no queue no one in the chip shop. My husband walked in to be ignored. One girl eating her own chips the others talking to each other. Finally got served. Fish was disgusting dry over cooked and tasted old. The only saving grace was the chips which were very nice.Its the type of place that if your a regular and your face fits you get served first and better fish.Time to try another chippy, I hear old road chippy is very good, and I know catch of the day at Trentham are very good.

We have lived in the area for 36 years, for some odd reason this is our first visit to Walton Fish Bar. Can honestly say that their fish and chips ranks with the best we have ever had; including the East Coast where we originate from!

An excellent chippy. Good quality fish and pies at reasonable prices. The quantity of chips they serve is very generous. There is sometimes a lengthy queue, particularly at the moment with the COVID precautions, but worth the wait.

It is one of a handful of places that does not use long life / hydrogenated cooking oil which is a known allergen. The time that we go there is always a queue consequently everything is freshly cooked and piping hot when we get home.

This place is almost always busy, with people queuing out of the door at peak times so the staff do their best to keep on top of the orders coming in but it's understandable that mistakes can happen, either with the individual orders being prepared or with the order that customers are served in, especially as people have to stand back and wait for some items.Unfortunately the boss (and I'm guessing owner) has zero patience and understanding so has a constand scowl on his face and is quick to loudly berate the staff in front of customers, like factory manager from a bygone era.There's no need for this kind of attitude and it seems unlikely that he's paying them a great deal to be abused and humiliated like this.It's a shame because I have no issues with the food but I'll think twice about handing more money over, knowing it will go to such an unpleasant character

Absolute shamble! Ordered a large cod upon arrival, which took 25-30 min. to prepare. During the wait a large queue formed waiting for cod, other customers did turn up and order non fish items who were served with priority which is perfectly understandable. However, when the cod was ready the staff were more concerned giving priority to customers who had not yet paid or ordered over those waiting the longest (Who had already paid) for the cod! Not even n apology for the wait. To top it off the food was overpriced and not that great

Food was hot and pretty nice. I told my order to a gent in there (three times) but it was wrong and when I asked the dark haired woman she gave a dirty look and just took the fish off and replaced with a suasage as we had asked. Was probably a good idea that no one had a fish allergy as she hadnt changed anything else. She was a bit rude, and my sister said she was scowling. It was nice, but overall customer service recieved on our visit wasnt great.

Genuinely speaking, the best f&c; anywhere. I live in France - no fish & chips. Visiting Stone & the Walton fish bar is always a delight. Try the cod fried in flour, no batter. It's a heavenly experience!! 5***** is not enough!!!

I have just left Walton Fish Bar in Stone with no dinner for the family after receiving the most appalling customer service! As I entered the shop, a couple of customers were waiting so I stood in line. One of the customers smiled and explained they had been served and were waiting on their orders. I proceeded to counter where the lady serving didn't even acknowledge my presence then proceeded to serve a gentleman who had entered shop after me. Obviously a regular, as the lady began to strike up a conversation with him! When I explained I was waiting the staff member blatantly ignored me, whilst the gentleman apologised profusely. The staff member said she'd started to ring his order into the till, so she'd continue! No apology was forthcoming from her ... and still no acknowledgement!! I placed my order for small chips, but when I saw the huge portion size I politely asked to change to a cone! Her face was enough... I immediately asked that she cancel my order explaining that her customer service skills left a lot to be desired and I'd prefer to take my business elsewhere. I then quickly left the shop!!

We were attracted in by the pleasant aroma of fried fish wafting over the Shell garage forecourt and were not disappointed. The freshly cooked fish glistened on the counter. the batter looked perfectly fried. It tasted as good as it looked and smelt and the chips and peas were also spot on. would return but it's 150 miles from home. If only this place was on my doorstep! But then, I'd probably end up looking like Humpty Dumpty!

Extremely disappointed with my serving of Gluten Free Chips today. There were plenty of bad chips, over-cooked chips, hard pieces and slightly off colour chips. I only ate a small amount from the portion of chips I had been served and I ended up leaving the rest to throw away (see photo below)!! I will say the fish they serve at Jo Jo’s you can see looks and tastes nice and fresh inside and of good quality, however, the batter, in which the fish is coated in, can sometimes be overdone/overcooked. My experience over time has lead me to believe the chips are mostly of poor standard, ones I would not wish to eat. There is just too much inconsistency with the quality of chips to my annoyance, which is why I am writing this review to hopefully get the message across and see much improvement. I honestly can't fathom how this chip shop is 'UK's No.1 for 2024'. I am afraid to say I have tasted much better, chips definitely, elsewhere!!

Have been ordering from Denrys for years but will never use again. Made an order via justeat which failed to arrive, when I phoned to query this I discovered Denrys have absolutely zero customer service and have no interest in apologising to customers. I was told the food had been delivered, but Denrys couldn’t tell me what colour my front door was, they they said they would get food to me as quickly as possible but this would take another 40 minutes as the kebab would require cooking, I am fairly certain the kebab only needs slicing and putting in a box. At no time did Sue from Denrys offer any form of apology and thought her view and style of customer of service was perfectly alright. What people like sue don’t realise is they are in a customer driven industry and if you upset enough customers you’re not in business. Denrys reasonable food, with no customer service, my advice is avoid Denrys and go somewhere which doesn’t employ people like Sue.

Awful place, slow disorganised and machines don’t print receipts even tho they offer you a free deal if you fill out details on the reverse or maybe that’s why they don’t so they don’t get too many negative reviews!!
