Superb white fish beautifully cooked and a large portion Perfect chips Curry sauce sharp enough to be interesting without being to savage. We ate on a sunny day when the picnic tables were most welcome.

The best chip shop around - and I don't say that lightly. The queues on a Friday tell you all you need to know. There is a small garden area so you can it the food at it's freshest (if we ever get a sunmer)

How on earth can they charge £5.00 for a fish that was hard batter not nice is beyond me. ..it's highly over rated ...it's the only one in the village and is busy but that's because it's a convenience. ..myself and my neighbours will not be going again ...

Possibly the best fish and chips in the UK... We come here pretty once a week and the fish and chips are consistently superb. We always look out for a highly rated chippy when we away on holiday but they very rarely come up to the standard of Westhead.

Perfectly cooked fish and chips. Batter not to thick nicely coated and the fish is fresh and melts in your mouth. Chips are really tasty and cooked properly. We had peas they are so nice i could eat pots of them on their own. Never fails to disappoint us . Best chppy around .Been going for 11 years and long may they continue to provide brilliant fish and chips.

We've been coming here for years but sad to say that we've noticed a decline over the last few visits. The fish, although fresh, is getting smaller and smaller. However, tonight was the first time we've ever had less than perfect batter, that horrible undercooked layer of mush between the fish and the batter. There was also another first.......they had run out of mushy peas!!! on a Saturday night with more than an hour until closing? Never thought we'd say it, but there are now better fish and chips to be had in the area.

having moved from the midlands, I have yet to find a chipshop, that provides good quality food and variety of food. I have tried all within my new area, and am seriously disappointed. Am plagued with under done greasy chips, fish that is under done. Peas , gravy and curry sauces are supplied in ridiculously small portions.

Excellent as always. I grew up in Croston, Fish and Chips was the best treat ever, and Westhead Fish and Chips were the best. (I'll not Mention Hitchens! but those who know will remember Eddie. And the ironic sign "Enjoy the rest as you eat the best") Joe Duffell was the proprietor and his standards were excellent. My Mother lived in Croston until her sad passing in March 2020, and whenever I'd visit a trip (or two) to the chippy was inevitable. I'm glad to say even under new ownership it's still very, very good.

Having lived as a youth and older in a “chippy” in Preston, I do have a professional experience on what should be on offer. This excellent chippy came u to standard on all counts. Quantity, quality, service with a smile. A little pricier than normal but a good full menu. Opening times a little odd T.W.T.F. LUNCH AND DINNER. Overall nothing really to pick on, a good quality product if just a tad more expensive than other local places.

Food not bad but over priced. They also charge for every little thing like a plastic fork or sachet of ketchup. Most chippys these days don't charge for plastic forks and if they sell burgers etc they don't charge for ketchup either. I think this place would charge you for the salt and vinegar if they could. I am also disappointed they don't have pies already hot in the range they are only heated up to order presumably by throwing them in the microwave which causes them to be all soggy and of course you can always buy these Holland's pies in ASDA Tesco etc often on offer at 50p and put them in your own microwave so why pay three or more times the price. I presume the problem here is the owners are so tight or money grabbers that they can't bare to have waste a pie or two when they shut up for the night. Also I have never seen a chip shop range to have frosted glass in it. Maybe if they had the frosted glass changed to clear then they could have the pies displayed along with sausages chicken fish scallops chop suey rolls etc etc and they might sell a bit more. I often go in a chippy and look in the range and will impulse buy or even buy more than I really should. Like one day I might just fancy chips but end up buying sausage chips and gravy or I might want fish chips peas but will have a pie to eat while waiting for the fish to be cooked and who knows maybe a chop suey roll to eat on the way home. I think this place is a rip off but not saying I wouldn't go there again but if another chippy opened locally I would probably go there instead as surely they would be a more traditional chippy and wouldn't rip their customers off

Nice looking and cosy inside on a chill ( cold) end of October day. #feels like 8° Checked beforehand and the web site says Dog Friendly! It’s not! You can sit outside in all weather on rotting wooden benches with your pooch if you want! No room inside anyway! Only stayed to finish drinks and left! If your only Dog Friendly outside you should say so.
