Most Disliked
While many patrons enjoy their meals, a few have expressed concerns regarding portion sizes, with some feeling the servings could be larger. The service, although friendly, may take longer during busy times, as Phil manages the kitchen solo. A handful of reviewers mentioned that expectations should align with the incredibly low prices, indicating that some customers might misinterpret value for quantity. However, the general consensus is that the quality more than compensates for any minor drawbacks observed.

Brilliant chippy at very affordable prices. Fish cooked to order. Went with a few friends as we were walking from pub to pub. Service takes time but Phil works on his own but great food. We all had something different but all enjoyed our food.

First time trying here tonight and will 100% be returning! Homemade chicken curry was absolutely gorgeous. I’ve read a few reviews slating the portion sizes … some people will NEVER be satisfied and expect the world for free. Prices are insanely low and I commented to my friend that he needs to up them! One man army doing it all, be kind or don’t say anything at all. Phil you have gained another customer :)

Very clean shop and very polite staff. I had a lunch time special. Pudding, chips, peas and gravy all for £3.99. The food was hot and very tasty, great value. The best chip shop I have been for a while in Cheshire.

Phil is a super bloke, and his food is not only top quality but very reasonably priced. If you haven't been here yet, you should. He also does specials that are well worth trying, but the fish and chips is top notch.
