I was so looking forward to a stellar fish and chips shop, this is rated 4.3 stars but it's more like 0.3 stars. Went in to order chicken snackbox and was told I would have to wait 25 minutes as the chicken was only being cooked just then. Ordered the fish meal instead and I regret not waiting the 25 minutes. Fish was slimy and had weird orange goo inside, not sure what that was about. The fish was also soft. This looked much worse in person when cutting into it. Totally put me off my meal, I didn't even attempt to try the fish. Chips were as bland as paper and many appeared to be affected by the Irish potato famine. Black holes and spots on many of the chips. One looked like a piece of turf. Curry sauce was weird and lumpy. Even the water was bland. Wouldn't recommend

Love King Cod. Never had a bad meal. Great team, great food. Highly recommend. 👍
Not the best fresh cod I’ve ever had. They can’t even bother to put salt and vinegar on. Sachets were thrown in the bag.
