"This restaurant really needs to improve how they prepare and cook their food. Compared to other fish and chips places I've been to, this place is definitely at the bottom. The batter on the fish is too thick and there is not enough actual fish, making it a disappointing experience. I have tried their food multiple times but have never been satisfied. I hope they can turn things around, but I cannot recommend this place when there are much better options available. My rating reflects the significant improvements they need to make in order to compete in the fish and chips market."

I recently tried a kebab at this restaurant and it was terrible. The chicken was burnt and the salad was unappetizing. I wouldn't even give it to my dog. Complete waste of money.

This must be the worst fish and chips takeaway I've had,delivery was fast,we've used this takeaway before and usually ok,but tonight I think the fish must have cooked and reheated,could not be eaten,I won't be back.

They have a pretty great fish and chips but I wanted to check out the kebab and was incredibly disappointed. The ‘big’ mixed kebab was a pita the size of my hand and came with no salad at all even though I requested one. The garlic mayo was also just mayo. I tried calling the restaurant multiple times and kept getting hanged up on.

Ordered takeaways online. Pleased with efficient service they were ready when we got there, saved us waiting. However when we got home I was disappointed the fish especially had an unpleasant taste of possibly cheap animal fat. Others in the family said they enjoyed theirs. The person who ordered the Scotsman’s pizza enjoyed it. But I don’t think I’ll go back.
