Really Disappointed. Fancied a takeaway for a Saturday night tea but wish I hadn't. Chips were stale, dry & tasteless like they'd been reheated. Asked for Salt & Vinegar but there was barley anything on there, probably the dry chips that soaked the vinegar up like a sponge.
I also had a burger which was ok but the bun was like cardboard.
They also don't take card which I find very odd & unnecessary. Come on guys it's 2024 & you're running a business in a thriving town like Frome how have you not got a card machine!?
One positive thing I'd say is they have done a nice renovation to the front & inside since their unfortunate window incident.
My chicken burger tonight was awful. Normally spot on but hideous. Lettuce onion and mayo I asked for. The bun was hard. It was clearly stale and been put on a griddle or toasted to try and bring it to life.
This is a pretty decent chippie if you're in the area and it does have the advantage of a captive audience! Our chips were hot and nicely cooked so none were wasted. Beware though that this is a cash only establishment which is surprising but at least there's an ATM next door.
Cash only!! Clear tax dodgers
Long wait for sausage to be cooked
Chips minging
I'll be going elsewhere during my 3 week stay in the area
All round 5 stars from me, I had the Jumbo and chips and one of the best fish suppers I've had in years.
Well cooked and fresh piece of cod, crispy batter not greasy (considering cooked in a fryer) and lovely chips, light and crispy on the outside and fluffy inside.
Great staff, very polite (even when I didn't read a sign saying cash only ????) even carried on with my order while I went a draw out money (most places would wait for you to come back with cash)
I would definitely make the trip to get these. Best I've found around and I'm mainly in Bath.
I love this place. The batter is consistently light and crispy and more importantly there is never skin on the cod. Codswallop also make incredible burgers which you might not think to try at this quality local favourite chip shop.
Highly recommended!!
Ordered cheese burger and beef burger. There was no cheese on the cheese burger. The rolls were stale and so much for the salad!! We said no salt and vinegar on the chips and they put salt and vinegar on. The onion rings we had looked like they were from lunchtime! The poor young girls were running around like headless chickens trying to serve everyone with no help!! Very disappointed. Won't return in a hurry.
Simply put, the food is good. Tasty chip shop food. Their triple burgers are my personal favourite. The style of the place has improved since the refurbishment and appears very clean.
Their kids meals are also well presented and at a good price.
However, 3 times now food has been forgotten from our order. After walking 2 miles there and back to get it, waiting 20 minutes outside the shop, with a child with Autism, it is really frustrating.
“Why don’t you check it?” I hear you ask, well, the person handing the food to me repeated the order to me. So I assumed the service was correct in putting in what they had on the list.
Shame on me for not triple checking, but I am sick of people taking this for the “standard” and blaming customers for not checking what was allegedly checked by businesses that specialise in this.
3/5 is fair in my view, if their service was consistently correct I would likely give them a 4/5. And if they also accepted card payments maybe even a 5/5
