tried it today for a take away fish and chip lunch

 

looks quite nice to sit in and seeing as it has only been open a couple of days was a pretty smooth operation

 

fish had a nice batter almost as good as the chart room and the chips were pretty good

 

only complaints are not much room to queue for take away orders and the staff at the counter seem to struggle communicating and skimp on the vinegar

 

otherwise worth a try for a change

skimp on the vinegar

I find a lot of busy chippy's tend to 'skimp' on the salt and vinegar - but as they pick it up and start putting it on I usually say: 'lots of vinegar please'. Better to say it then, than when they have stopped and put it down, as it's then you become a pain in the arse when it's busy.

I noticed this the other day, looked very well fitted out from outside.

 

It'll have to go a long way to top the Chart Room - but expect it'll do good business whatever the quality of the food due to its location.

Or even say "It's ok I will put it on myself and take the bottle"

Well thank god. If there is one thing Douglas was crying out for it's another chippy.

 

I'll still give it a go tomorrow mind. Hopefully it will be better than the 'not as good as it used to be' Chart Room

You seem to know where all these places are.

 

I don't think you're really Slim at all, just pretending to be him

Just a quick glance at the menu as I walked past, but disappointingly cod-centric it seems. I know that people are hard to get out of the habit, but it would have been nice to see sustainable alternatives instead.

I get around

Just tried it and have to say it was the worst fish, chips and peas i've ever eaten.

Yuck.

Chewy batter, soggy greasy chips, and tasteless peas.

The fish itself was grey and tasted horrible.

Maybe I'll have a Chinese instead

got to make your own decision dave

 

mine was ok

[Dave Hedgehog 521]

Nuts to that. Their inconsistency has cost a duck it's life this week.

 

I'll go after a couple of weeks when they have had a chance to settle.
