Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Many patrons rave about the fish and chips, highlighting the superb quality and freshness of the fish. The chips are frequently cited as some of the best around—crisp on the outside and fluffy within, perfectly complementing the seafood. Vegan offerings, including the battered banana blossom, receive special mentions for being both innovative and delicious. Friendly service enhances the experience, as staff cater to individual preferences, ensuring everyone's meal is cooked to satisfaction. The child-friendly environment and outdoor terrace seating create a relaxing atmosphere for families, making appreciation for this spot widespread.
Most Disliked
While the majority of reviews are positive, some diners have mentioned minor service hiccups, like menu items that were temporarily unavailable. Occasionally, customers express disappointment if they find certain dishes off the current menu or feel they have to ask for specifics. A few guests note that while the fish quality is commendable, they would prefer even more toppings and spice options for certain dishes. Parking can be limited during peak season, leading to a sometimes crowded atmosphere. Yet, these issues remain relatively small compared to the overall dining experience.

I had banana blossom with chips today (the vegan alternative to fish) and it was fantastic. Definitely recommend. The chips were great too. My only slight criticism is that I had to ask as it wasn't on the menu anymore. Thanks for some great food.

Delicious fish, chips and mushy peas cooked freshly to order. Definitely a cut above your average fish and chips. Staff were super lovely and even asked us how crispy we liked our batter! Would highly recommend.

Ordered cod and chips, Chips were the best I’ve had from a fish and chip shop, so crisp and delicious. Fish was good but it’s all about the chips!

Best Fish and Chips ever, highly recommend. Will be back, had Frickles (deep fried pickles), chips, curry sauce and vegan fish (banana blossom) Best I have ever had, ate al fresco as the have seating available and also a park for little ones to play on whilst parents enjoy the food. Have a traditional chip shop menu with items such as, fish, battered sausage but what is most impressive is that the also do street food.

Just popped in for a portion of chips as we had a sandwich from next door, never been here before. Lady who served us was lovely and polite. Chips are one of the best tasting we have had for a long time. The flavour was lush! Fareplay. Would recommend here for the chips. Thankyou so much!!

Went here for a late afternoon chippy and the food was amazing. The service was amazing and the staff were really really friendly, a much better atmosphere than your regular chip shop. Definitely would recommend here. The food was so fresh and amazing. Will definitely be coming again through the summer months ☺️
