A lot of high end restaurants could learn a few things about service from this fish and chip shop. Delicious food, clean place and very welcoming service. I had the fish and salad whilst the kids had the whiting fish and chips and calamari fish and chips. He threw in some extra clamari rings and tartare sauce for free. We will definitely be returning.

Having read the reviews, I had an out of state quest, and decided to get some good ol fish and chips. We got the seafood pack and a normal fish and chips. Fried not grilled. Service was excellent. The place was clean and inviting. The fish and chips were not bad but not the best either. Fish was actually quite thin. The crab sticks and calamari was good. Chips were hot and crispy. I think this is your standard fish and chips you will find at most places ( based on my experience of over 3 places nearby ) Either way a good value meal. Enjoy.

We ordered chips, potato cakes and flakes for dinner tonight. The food was superb. It was fresh and real potatoes , not those yellow MSG chips you get from other places. Their potato cakes are made on the premises, which is rare these days. It’s obvious they change their old regularly because of the crispness of the food. It was great to walk into a shop and be greeted with fresh , happy faces. Keep up the excellent food and service.
