"Was busy but worth the wait. Very decent portions. Food was also fresh. Helped that the place was busy because then they’re constantly having to cook to order rather than cook and wait for customers. Very good price and accepts cards."

"Absolutely love this chip shop for a treat. Tikka chicken and chips is a banging combination with loads of flavour. Very good portions and well priced. However you may incur a cue while waiting but worth it when your eating. Staff are efficient at getting your order sorted."

"Best cod and chips in Derby of the many I’ve tried. Portions massive, fish always beautiful. Tried many F&C shops in Derby and this is certainly one of, if not the best, great value too. Usually a queue (which is always a good sign). Contrary to some reviews here, staff are very friendly and efficient. Some people are just up their own A@*e!"
