Comments: This place is pretty good! The service is always great and they don't fuck around. They smashed through the orders and we were out of there in less than 10 mins. Great to see three generations of their family helping out behind the counter. Chips were creamy in the middle and perfectly seasoned with a cheeky bit of chicken salt. Only let down by their waxy/scalded surface texture which gave the roof of my mouth a work out. Fish was well cooked and dusted with lemon pepper seasoning. The batter ratio was on point, however the quality of the cut of fish was below average - flakey, floury and turned to moosh. Finger grease and wax mouth not an issue. Great portion size and cheap as heck.
