Most Disliked
Some patrons express disappointment regarding the lack of weekend openings, as they wish to indulge in the delightful offerings but find it challenging to visit during weekdays. The limited seating may lead to longer waiting times during busy lunch hours, which can be frustrating for those in a rush. Although food quality is consistently highlighted, a few customers have noted occasional inconsistencies with the crunchiness of the fish batter. Additionally, those familiar with more diverse menu options may find the limited variety somewhat restrictive, though the focus remains on quality rather than quantity. Regardless, the overall experience continues to outweigh these small concerns.

Love this chippy. Went to it when I was younger and hasn't changed a bit. The same lovely owners and the best chips and Holland's pies. The decor is still the old retro decor too which people try to replicate in London all the time

Oh my gosh. What a place. Under a strangely named awning that doesn't imply it's a chippy. The best chips I've ever had. And I've had a lot. Utterly delicious.
