   New to shinfield and had seen reviews about this being the best chip shop in Reading. Well if this is the best I would hate to have food from the worst. I have tried to give them the benefit of my doubt but visited on two occasions now and every time the fish is soaking in oil. I ordered Haddock on my 1st visit and because they cooked it fresh I thought that was why it was so greasy but today I ordered cod and it’s exactly the same it was soggy and soaking in grease as you can see from the pictures. It’s a 35-40minute round trip there and I can only afford a take away once a month and to pay £9 for this I feel like I have been cheated very upset and disappointed.

   Very authentic fish and chips experience! The place is a hole in wall that looks like it's been there since at least the 70s. Fish tastes great. Crispy batter with a ton of grease. Chips are really soggy, and you get a mountain of them shoved into a tiny paper bag. For my taste not enough vinegar on the chips. They should be absolutely drenched in vinegar. I think my arteries are clogged after this one. 4/5 would recommend. Good job lads!

   Excellent fish and chips, great value and served hot and fresh. Very busy shop, customers were queuing out the door but service was quick and organised. Highly recommended. Perfectly cooked crisp, thick cut chips and a good sized piece of cod well cooked in a nice crunchy batter, well drained and not greasy. Good sized portions and great value for money - £9.50 (cash only) for cod, chips and mushy peas. Much better than some supposed ‘award winning’ chip shops I have visited.

   Great service, and great portions my only thing is it's cash only, and not card. Most people don't carry cash anymore.

   Cannot give them a high enough rating. Have been visiting with family for most of my life and would always prefer to come here and than any other fish and chip shop. The owner and staff are really lovely and the food is brilliant quality at a fantastic price.
