Best KPortal Reviews
After previously leaving a 5* and very positive review, I’m disappointed to say my last few visits have been a real disappointment and I won’t be going back. The £1 a piece fried chicken has gone up to £1.70 a piece making it more expensive than KFC and was VERY VERY dry. Clearly, it’s not selling so well since it went up 70% in price! Tonight I had battered chips. A good owner would have refused to sell them. They’d clearly been there a long time and were rock hard (bone dry). Straight into the bin. Had the chips as part of a medium fish special (£6.50). The curry sauce was also dry (de-hydrated) - straight in the bin! The medium fish usually fills the box that they are served in. Tonight it was a mini-fish and there was easily an inch gap on each side of the fish to the box.
So £6.50 for a mini fish, the rest in the bin. The only positive, the girls serving on the counter are very polite. The “fryer” tonight was a miserable older man, usually a younger man who is very welcoming and polite, nice chap. Grumpy older man was speaking down to the young girls working to serve the customers. I don’t like that! Will probably find out he is the owner!
Looks like Olympic Fish Bar will be my new “go to” in Penkridge
We go here every other Friday as my dad loves a fish supper. Unfortunately it's really gone down hill. The salad was browning, and my wife found a hair in an extremely dry/ over cooked fishcake. The floor was very greasy too, it was raining but not grease! Main road chippy from now on.
I waited for nothing short of 40 minutes, arriving with only a couple of people in, just before he evening rush around 5 ish so most haven’t made it from work yet. After 10 minutes waiting for that, I was then told to wait for fish, i wanted 2 fish that was all, but the other 10/11 people behind me went ahead while i stood for another half hour because they hadn’t any fish cooking nor chips ready. Food was actually quite nice but the service was appaling, the two girls working there didn’t seem to have a clue, had faces like smacked bottoms with no form of apology to customers waiting an age, and seemingly not informing the man what and when things needed cooking.
Had 3 fish and chips fantastic food the fish was cooked fresh other chippys look out ! Last time we had fish that good was in cornwall
Ps the chippy is under new management.
Update sadly the food is not cooked fresh as before and quality has suffered. The fish are all cooked in advance and ours was oily and soggy and the chips were not good.???? we may try it again one day. Shame as it was fantastic.
I bloody love this place! I actually travel 10 miles to get my food.
The food is hot fresh and the fish is beautiful and I love the fact that theres a chunk of lemon with it. Staff are always pleasant and I would highly recommend you visit this chippy
Not a pleasant meal again tonight. Kids meal comes with a toy the poster says.....nope. paid £2.00 for a box of salad, absolute insult for a tablespoon of lettuce. Shocking. Brought £15.00 of food overall. Just sharp chip bits, kebab very poor.
I went into oysters chippy Saturday the 9 May 2020 normally I would rate them 5 stars always.
My son eats chicken kebab and he couldn't eat his so went in bin to.
but another man was doing the cooking i have seen him a few times so when this guy is there the food is awful I had to throw my chips in the bin because they were so black and fish didn't taste the same also my son had to throw his away.
Also it's seems it's bad when George isn't there he does fab food so be aware make sure George is cooking the food I will always give him 5 stars think this needs to be sorted before they loose the buisness does anybody know who owns oysters.
George is fantastic, cares about the food he serves, how his staff serve you and the quality of the food is top notch.
However, there is another man that cooks and he is nowhere near as good..
Bottom line, if george isn't there, come back another day.
