We had a large fish (pollock) and a standard portion of chips. The price was £9.70. The serving was HUGE and there was easily enough for both of us. Perfectly cooked, very tasty and not at all greasy. An excellent traditional chippy.

I contacted this chip shop to feed my 27 hungry Scouts, Explorers and Leaders as we were visiting Nantwich recently. Simon was extremely obliging and worked out a deal with my budget. When I collected the order it was hot and very very tasty. All the children ate everything and said how nice it was. The fish sticks were particularly nice with crispy batter and plenty of fish. Thank you Simon and your team, I'd recommend this place to anyone and if we visit the area again we'll definitely come back.

Best chip shop in Crewe and Nantwich by a country mile. Good size portions, crispy fish, thin batter and chips that dont go soggy (because they dont put them in plastic trays!) and reasonably priced.
