Expensive and they charge you £2 for a small bottle of ketchup instead of providing it free or for a small charge. Rip off! On the plus side, the fish was fresh and tasty.

Chips were mediocre and the guy behind the till was a bit depressing ro be honest.

I wasn’t keep for fish & chips but one of my friend recommended them to give it a go. No doubt best fish & chips I enjoyed after long times. Perfectly fresh cooked. A minute from the seafront so I just takeaway n enjoying my sea view as well as having tasty food. Must recommend.

I’ve just called here on the way home for a small fish n chips. All fresh with crisp chips and batter. Managed to take a photo before I scoffed it but only just. Well Done. Too hungry to put it on a pretty plate but at least I remembered to take a photo 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Quality chips, homemade fish cake nice and peppery. Fairly standard fayre. If its fish and chips you want you could do a lot worse.Friendly staff. Very well situated for the beach (and Dave Gilmore's house).

We were led here by the good rating, but I'm afraid we were quite severely disappointed. At first sight it looked like they had all the COVID-19 guidelines down really well. There's a sign that says entry with mask only, and there is a table to enforce distance in front of the counter, with sanitiser. This impression changed however when a group of adolescents with no masks went in, all huddled together, to pick up their order, and the staff made no intention to challenge them. At that point we also noticed the staff weren't wearing masks or gloves themselves, and there was no NHS QR code to check in, while all the businesses around them had these, and the little bakery down the road insisted we scan the code even for just getting a takeaway coffee.We queued outside, as there were several people waiting. The staff inside didn't really take notice of us, so when another group of people went right past us to go in, we didn't even have time to point out there was a queue, and they were served first, putting an order for 7 people in front of our 2.When we finally got to order, the man at the counter was brusque and not very interested. He asked for clarification on a large cod with small chips and plaice with small chips ordered one at a time several times. Payment was cash only, although it says contactless payment is available on Maps. We were lucky to even have cash with us, but in hindsight I think it would have been more lucky not to have any and to abandon the order.While we were waiting outside, the same member of staff came out of the shop and went into the off-licence two doors down to get milk, still not wearing a mask.We went back in to finish up our order, asked for lots of salt on both and vinegar on one of our dishes, and seemingly got neither. What we did get however was a very large amount of grease. The fish was drained in batter so heavily, it was fishy batter rather than battered fish, and it smelled and tasted of used frying oil. The grease was collecting at the bottom of the Styrofoam box in amounts large enough that it could be tipped out. While the fish was very soft inside, it tasted of practically nothing, apart from old oil, and so did the chips, which managed to be incredibly soggy yet devoid of any vinegar at the same time. We were quite impressed that some of them managed their way under the box inside the wrapping paper.All in all it was a hot meal, but not an enjoyable one. The ordering process and the wait were stressful from a COVID-19 perspective, and the food was terrible. I would not recommend this takeaway.
