What mtf0508 doesn't like about The Fish Shop:
We have tried this fish and chip shop a few times and the batter on the fish is always soggy and undercooked on the inside, the chips have, on a couple of occasions been undercooked both fish and chips seem anaemic, not the nice golden crispy batter and brown chips you get elsewhere !! I'm sure this has changed hands in the last year and it seems they have taken over the cooking abilities of the previous owner as it... View all feedback. What User likes about The Fish Shop:
probably the best fish and chips I tried in Britain. Fish always tastes fresh, it is never dry, teig is crispy and does not drip with oil. the pommes are the real business. after a visit there I became regularly. do not make a mistake, this place is not its regular fish and chip shop, the quality is much higher than it would expect from a place like this. a true hidden gem.

Nice gf fish cooked in its own fryer..would feel safer if chips were separated for gluten free meals so no chance of cross contamination from other utensils

brilliant, fish is perfectly cooked and not too much teig. chips are really nice and the device is perfect and it doesn't cost any power. highly recommended
