Atlantic Bay Fish & Chips

Visited on a monday for gluten free batter. This was excellent, as was the regular batter. Chips perfect, fish perfect, mushy peas perfect. Generous portions, online collection dead on time, friendly staff. The best FnC we have had in a good while. As a real sea side bonus you can eat them outside and not get attacked by herring gulls. They have got the gulls under control in Westward Ho!

The food was tasty, I could not fault it. I think the very young staff did an excellent job considering the popularity of the establishment. Its definitely not the cheapest fish and chip shop around, but that is to be expected in a busy tourist sea side town. The wait time was not too horrendous considering deluge of orders they clearly had.

Staying locally we opted for a visit to the local chip shop - the Atlantic Bay. The place was very busy, and you can order via self-serve kiosk thing. We picked what we wanted and the kiosk was fairly easy to use (we couldn't find the curry sauce until we realised you could swipe up to move screen!) We also then had to go to counter anyway as the receipt didn't appear to give our order number! We had a few minutes wait, but this wasn't surprising considering how busy it was. It's a small area with a covered area outside and some benches on other side of the road. There is also a big green on other side of the road so if it's a nice day you could just sit and eat there! We had a large cod, chips and peas meal deal, a kids fish cake meal and a small cod and chips. All the food was cooked well, the fish wasn't overly battered, the chips had a good mix of having the little crunchy bits at bottom that I like - and all of it was well covered in salt and vinegar! We would certainly visit again if the desire for fish and chips is high!
