Good value fish and chips. I didn't have one, but my daughter had a pineapple fritter who said it was the best she had ever had.

The fish is so small for the price, size for a toddler meal. The fries needed so much salt as they were so bland. And the sausages looked and tasted like cheap shriveled meat(very dry). Also don’t order until you go in to see exactly what they have ( they like to lie to you on the phone about what they have) and be stern as they like to try dismiss your concerns about your food. Very bad customer service in my opinion, no smiles or welcoming hello. Wouldn’t recommend.

Use to love this place, was my number one but it has drastically changed. Hot dogs are not propped hotdogs. Budget sausages in batter. Vege spring rolls have no flavour to them anymore. Was a fortnightly favourite but won’t be back after today as it’s the 2nd time this has been this experience. Will be looking for a different regular

There's nothing like ordering quality battered fish and chips and actually getting exactly what you ask and are happy to pay for and that's exactly what my husband and I got this afternoon.
Orange roughy, potatoe fritters, excellent hot potatoe chips, separate kumara chips with sour cream all served with retention of the quality of the food after leaving the deep fry and shop.
A rarity these days that shouldn't be.
Shop was lovely and clean.
Service staff efficient, friendly and adaptable (to dietary requirements and customer requests (which were minimal).
Well done 'Thank God It's Fryday'!
Love the pun.
Keep it up and customers will return ALWAYS to you.
