Great fish and chips. Chippy is a little cold. Cold plates. I don't like placing my order before you go to your table, no time to go through the menu. Curry sauce is bland not creamy enough for me. Some good specials on the menu.

Always good chippy food, good quality but recently portion size for example of a so-called Large chip is now more like a small chip which is not acceptable when the price has increased etc

The food at waves used to be the best around especially the chips and fish unfortunately it has been going downhill over the years. I got a small chip which was nothing more than pale soggy wedges of grease, there couldn't have been more than two potatoes in this for an eye watering £3.80. Great staff poor food and extortionate prices.

Anytime I have been to waves the food has been fantastic. This time was just after coming out of Antrim hospital for 8 hrs on IV. I was looking forward to their fish and chips. I was disappointed at their fish. It was small I don't mind paying for nice fish but was not nice. I'm just being truthful to you the staff of Waves. I will be back 7/10 👍👍

have dined here every time in the area as used to be great. on friday night it was terrible service. our order was taken and 31 minutes later we received it. this was after the tables either side of us had received theirs and had ordered after us. one table even commented on it to us. the waitress on duty when we arrived is always polite and friendly and helpful. she was only waitress there. she was finishing her shift and it took two young waitresses to do what she had been doing and weren't doing it well. they wiped anything on the table onto the floor and left it. were more interested in chatting and laughing with each other. when asked where our order was after the second table were served with their food we got a grunt saying it's coming. wouldn't have minded but we all were having fish and chips. food isn't as good as it was so time to dine elsewhere

Having been purchasing food here for over ten years, I can unequivocally assert that Waves consistently provides the best, tastiest fish and chips within the greater Antrim area, always providing good quality produce and generous portions. I don’t know anyone who has sampled their fare that doesn’t agree.

Take away in the last year is impressive. I seriously put that down to A CERTAIN COOK AND THEIR EXPERIENCE FROM A NOTHER CHIPPY. QUALITY. .ITS NOT CHEAP BUT ITS MORE VALUE FOR MONEY THAN MOST BY A 100 MILE. ENJOY & SPEND.

I have eaten in waves for ten yrs now and used to boast we had the best chips on the island and this was bore out by friends pretending to visit me just to go to waves. Sadly that is no longer the case. It is not a bad chippy but no longer a quality chippy, it has nothing left that make it stands out from any other standard chippy and has been this way for too long now, Im guessing the change in potaotes, burgers etc is for greater profit as all I can really say now is the prices keep going up and the quality keeps going down, the demise of what was once a great chippy.

Honestly, this place does the best chips I've had in a long time. My son and I are addicted to the salty crispiness of these chips. Best in County Antrim and maybe even Northern Ireland. Can't vouch for the rest of their menu as we have only had the chips, but GO and BUY some and support this wee place.
