"A trip to Great Yarmouth is never complete unless you travel a few miles up the road to Norfolk's best chippy. Fluffy cod, delicious chips and fresh vegetable oil make this place a favourite of mine. To keep my cod and chips warm, I simply...turn my beanie hat upside down and put the bag in. I can then walk down to the beach and eat my amazing meal while it stays piping hot throughout. Just don't use too much vinegar as your head will smell later in the day. Washed down with an ice-cold Orange Tango, this certainly beats the overpriced pretentious food they serve up in remainer-infested, elitist Islington. Plus it's always nice to visit somewhere where no one recognises me and I'm treated like every other fashionable, middle-aged baldy. Am already looking forward to our return next week. The prices are great and I love the staff. Wit woo! See you soon! Dom x"

Beautiful traditional Fish Chips fried in their unique cooking oil. The sausage in batter is also superb as a side order. The fish is always so fresh.

Beef dripping used instead of oil for frying. This is a deal breaker for me as a pescatarian and would also affect those who don’t eat beef for religious reasons.

The fish and chips were so good that we went back two years in a row whilst on holiday in the area. Portions very large and fish exceedingly fresh. Will definitely be back. View menu

Good Fish and Chips but spring rolls were very tough to cut and chew. The online ordering works but beware the shop only takes cash. We had to search for a working cash dispenser before we could collect our meal.

Good honest fish and chips. Ordered Haddock and chips. Fish cooked to order and was completely boneless and tasty. Chips were nicely done. Reasonable prices and good portion sizes. I would rate it the best fish and chips in the area. View menu

Heard that this was one of the local favourites for fish and chips and it didn’t disappoint. Cheeky lunchtime snack was thoroughly enjoyed. They even gave us a bag of scraps! Value for money, polite and friendly service, glad we stopped by.

Ordered our food online then collected. Food was ready staff were nice welcoming. Portions were very generous. I had large chips with I had got a regular portion as I could only managed half! My husband really enjoyed his fish ..the onion rings were homemade very tasty. All round a really good experience.

"An exceptionally unique dining experience! Our holiday companion booked Pamela’s for dinner and we were unsure of what to expect, however we were assured of good quality food and a great experience and we certainly were not disappointed. Upon arrival we were shown to a table in the lounge, provided with the menus and ordered drinks. Service is exceptionally professional and friendly from arrival to departure. The decor is most unique and very fun to take in. The upstairs dining room is more casual and I loved watching the chefs in the open kitchen. The food was beautifully presented and delicious. Our vegetarian diner was slightly limited for choice and there was a blip with the main course, however it was handled and recovered very well (we were unaware when booking, however we have now been advised to phone ahead a minimum of 24-hours and special meal arrangements can be made in advance for vegetarian meals). The fish cakes and miso Salmon were very delicious and cooked to perfection. The duck legs had crispy skin, moist meat and a tasty accompanying Orzo pasta. All in all I would thoroughly recommend Pamela’s for a delicious meal with 5* service. Vegetarian options: Recommended to advise the restaurant a minimum of 24-hours in advance. There were 2 starters and 1 main course (featuring pasta on all dishes) on the a la carte menu, however if you call in advance then arrangements can be made."

"I would love for this review to be a 5 but unfortunately, I am unable to do that. Upon booking the table over a week before our visit I was told that the table would be ours for the evening because we were a large group. We were asked to pay a £10 deposit per person this was absolutely fine and we all paid well in advance. The table was booked for a hen/birthday party so we were all looking forward to a nice meal before heading out for the rest of the night. Unfortunately though, this didn’t happen. I had originally booked the table for 7:30pm, however on the day of the booking it was obvious to us that getting there for that time was going to be a struggle so I rang the restaurant and ask if it was okay for us to arrive for 8pm instead. The woman on the phone said this was absolutely fine and actually thanked me for letting them know well in advance. We all arrived just after 8pm (11 of us in total and were seated quickly. This is where everything began to go downhill… it was at least 10 20 minutes before our drinks order was taken and then a further 20 minutes before the waitress took our food order. A couple of people in our party ordered 2 4 1 cocktails and after waiting a further 20 minutes after everyone else’s drinks arrived the waitress came to tell us that they were waiting for the ingredients as the cocktails were coming from the bar next door. So by this time it’s about 9pm and the cocktails still haven’t arrived. So we asked the waitress where the drinks were and shortly after the cocktails arrived We did complain about this and was told that because of the long wait, the price of the cocktails would be taken off of the bill. I don’t think this would’ve happened though if we hadn’t made a fuss about how long it took. That was just the start… Finally after around 75 minutes of waiting, our starters finally arrive which tasted lovely. We then waited a further 30 minutes before we had to ask where our mains were and the waitress went to check. It’s now 10pm and we’ve been in the restaurant 2 hours! The waitress comes back and says it’ll be another 10 minutes. We all then collectively decided that we were going to leave it as we’d already missed another reservation we had and we were on a Hen Do! We were meant to be having dinner and going on a night out we’d had enough! A few minutes later, the waitress comes out and tells us (conveniently our food was ready; But by this time we were fed up and had decided to leave. Shortly after we told the waitress, “sorry, no thank you, we’re fed up” the owner(? comes out from the kitchen and demands we stay to eat the food. We apologise and explain that we’ve been waiting over two hours and we have decided we want to leave and as we had previously explained to the waitress that we had other plans for the evening. The woman then starts shouting at us and accusing us of being over an hour late to our reservation and demands the waitress gets the order receipt to prove herself right! When we said that this doesn’t prove anything because the waitress took ages to even take our order and that I had called to tell them we wanted to move our reservation to 8pm, she then says that we hadn’t paid our deposit and we couldn’t leave! She then was just arguing with different members of our party until we all just got up and left. We wasn’t rude to anyone and we just wanted a nice meal that wasn’t going to take an entire evening to arrive. They knew it was a hen party and that we were planning to be out afterwards and they just took the mick. Throughout the two hours there, we were polite and respectful the restaurant was so deadly quiet I don’t think anyone wanted to disturb anyone. The atmosphere was completely dead and felt awkward. So we all left the restaurant, hungry, disappointed and annoyed at the treatment we had received. It ruined the beginning of a night we had planned for 9 months and it’s just not okay. To be honest, if they had apologised and treated us differently, we probably would’ve stayed and enjoyed the food. If the restaurant cannot handle large bookings, they shouldn’t accept them. The Lek Thai lost a lot of money that night."
