Impeccable service given by the staff. The restaurant area was so clean and extremely inviting! We all sat on a very cosy table. The food was beautiful, I enjoyed every last mouthful. We all had fish and chips (I had curry sauce too), and the fish was cooked to perfection! It was lightly battered and very tasty. The chips were traditional cafe/chippy chips, I hadn’t tasted them in years. These were the best ones yet. The curry sauce was super! Such an amazing experience that we forgot to take photos!!

Popped in on the odd chance as was working in southport today, The fish was made fresh and was perfect, the chips couldn't be faulted either. I was working out of town and had a perfect lunch, they even supplied me with salad cream which was a bonus, thank you ladies, I would eat here again. But strongly avoid the Southport rock shop opposite!!!

I went in with the family, we all enjoyed the fish and chips. We have been before and certainly will go again. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

My boyfriend worked in this chippy ten years ago and since I’ve met him he’s not stopped banging on about how good it is. It’s my first time in Southport and I have to say, he was on the money. What a shout. What a meal. Best chippy I’ve ever had. Will definitely be coming back. 10/10.

Really pleased with our experience here. Food was perfect! Delicious chippy chips with gravy. We also had sausages & pie. The restaurant was clean & had plenty of seating. They also have the option for takeout. Good location too.

Lovely food, friendly staff, nice clean cafe with plenty of seating. The toilets were very clean. Prices are average, they do offer meal deals which are good value. We had pudding, chips peas and gravy, pie, chips, peas and gravy and our daughter had chicken nuggets and chips. Total price 21.30 Portion sizes aren't big but the food is what I describe as being a proper chip shop. Everything was so tasty. My only criticism was the paper that was on the plate with our food placed on top. This is useless and turns into a mushy mess if you have gravy, peas or a pudding, it also hinders you when cutting your food, I took mine from under my food before starting to eat.
