For classic UK Fish and Chips, the Dancing Octopus is a safe bet if decent quality is your agenda. A true grease party if ever there was one, the chips are thick, fat and excellent, with good quality potatoes at the heart.
Gravy is thick and tasty, mushy peas fine but a bit watery and the cod is nice, but lacking in seasoning. Service, in spite of a steady queue, was quick, although having Haddock would have added another 10 minutes waiting time, so we stuck with Cod.
Outside of Wales or Scallywags, one of the better places I've been, although as Fish and Chips makes you feel so in need of a green tea after, the rating is reduced as my reviews take into effect the healthy 'feel good' factor after eating.
Touted as the best fish and chips in Newcastle under Lyme but I can only say it’s not the best I have tried in the United Kingdom. Was too hungry to take pictures of the actual order but now my curiosity is out of the way (been wanting to try this place for so long but they do not appear on any of the food ordering platforms), I’ll be trying other places to compare who’s best in the neighborhood. The staff were very friendly and nice and offered the kids some sweets while we waited in the sweltering summer heat. Be sure to have cash as they do not accept cards
Allow me to take my E scooter inside so nobody steals it. And leave next to the door. The staff are amazingly friendly, the food is brilliant quality, and reasonably priced, large sausage chips peas gravy and a small portion of chips (might I add easy enough for 3 people) £8
My mum also calls in here for chips on her way passed whenever she visits me from belfast. She loves it
I'm really fussy about what I have at a chippy. Recently moved to Castle and really fancied one, the closest to me was this one, got what I wanted and being honest it was perfection. I only normally have chips, jumbo sausage and a curry sauce. Really enjoyed it and will be going back.
Cash only so beware and enjoy
Pleasant experience, lovely staff! Chips were decent. Opted for the curry sauce and in hindsight, should have gone with the Chinese curry as the normal curry was nothing exciting. I think I hyped myself up for the fish as I assumed the fish would be fresh and when I ate it, it didn't taste fresh. Otherwise, it was a good experience overall.
I've been coming here since I was a child. It was another good opportunity since I was in the area and needed something to eat, before we headed to the theatre. Food, as always, was great. The portion sizes were also massive. Staff were great and although we had a bit of a wait, it was well worth it.
Great takeaway with good quality food at affordable prices. Eg Donna meat and chips £4.80 compared with Hartshill chippy £7.00 for same meal.
Best chip shop in the area staff are accommodating and the food is always on point with good portion size at a great price
Fabulous food, generous portions, very reasonably priced.
I have had 1 poor experience when the chips i was served looked and tasted like they had sat in cold fat so i didnt go back for quite a while. I have been back recently and the standard of food has improved greatly and i was impressed with the standard, the staff are always friendly and i witnessed them constantly cleaning their work areas when not serving the customers. I now will use this chippy again with no hesitation
As an American who has tried traditional fish and chips before i can honestly say this is one of the best fish n chips i have tried. Amazing portions and Amazing 5 star service
Fantastic chips, been going here for decades, my favourite chip shop. I travel a fair way past other chippy. They often give you too many chips to be honest.
I've visited here twice both times I have encountered the most friendly staff two ladies, who cooked my fish fresh for me and both times my meal was most enjoyable I shall be paying a visit again thank you Ladies Ro from Beaumaris,👍😊💐
Very friendly, polite staff and yummy food. Their chips, gravy and sausage was the perfect pick me up after getting soaked twice in the rain today. Would definitely recommend!
This is a really good chippy and great prices , friendly service I will definitely be going back,the best chippy by far bid portions too well worth the money.
Loved it 🩷
