Only been once food was excellent.
The best chip shop I’ve been to, so fresh and glorious portions sizes, check out my picture of the regular fish and regular chips! All items are made to order, so expect a wait, but once you have your food, you’ll forgot all about the wait. Really nice staff too, who are very kind. Ate here multiple times, whilst staying @ Parkdean Sunnydale.

A fantastic little gem of a plaice!!! On holiday in Saltfleet and stopped by for fish and chips, fantastic portions, easy on the wallet and everything cooked from scratch. The service was friendly too. Fish was melt in the mouth delicious. Just wish they cooked in beef dripping, then it would be perfect
Absolutely cracking chippy supplying the villages and caravan parks around Saltfleet with a huge variety of great tasting food. It's all cooked to order so it's always hot , fresh and delicious. The owner was very bright and chatty and we had a good conversation even though she was busy. Their batter is light and crispy so my battered burger and sausage were still tender and juicy inside. The chips were crispy and golden but not dry in the slightest and still full of fluffy potato. The curry sauce I had was the traditional although Chinese is available and it was yummy over my chips and scraps. All of my order was perfectly wrapped and I thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Thank you very much it's great not to have to travel miles for a great chippy and i will definitely be back to try everything.
Update is that good we've returned for a day out, so had chips and pie this time. What a diamond of a place to get amazing fish and chips, very traditional and lots to choice from. Then nip to sit by the nature reserve and sea view
