Clifton Chippy

Everything was spot on food wise but do not use uber eats. Food was ready at 8:15 but the owner had to wait until gone closing time because the useless driver didn't bother to pick up the delivery. The owner couldn't apologise enough

My expectations for a chippy aren't high, but I was pretty shocked at the quality of this place...
The chip portions: were very small and what little there were the chips were only half cooked and soggy, no tasty crispy ones in sight.
The battered sausage: was half the size it should have been and the batter wasn't fully cooked, it was soggy and warm (not even hot) was worried to eat it.
The battered cod: was also half the size it should be, poorly cooked, soggy and warm (not hot).

All in all it looked and tasted rushed, undercooked, and skimpy portions.
A decent chippy should have big portions and be properly crispy and crunchy. This was a warm, stingy, soggy mess.

Under new management!
So we had to go and try it out.

I was surprised when l walked in...though the outlay is the same, the menu boards had changed, more clear and a good choice of food. The staff, seemed happy and in smart uniform, there was a few customers when l arrived! I checked the menu first, and then asked for something if they could place something together! With a swift reply "Yes we can do that" so my order was sorted by whom to be the new manager!

To note l was surprised to hear of what l asked for, was, spoken about and stated "we can put this on as a new special, on the menu"
What did l ask for!

Well, mini fish, some chips and curry sauce! on a nan.

The chips where slightly yellow as they are cooked in batter, the only other place l have seen this was a place when on holiday in South Devon a place called (Scoffs)

My food was ready and off we went.
Living locally it did not take long and l was pleasantly surprised with the food. Well presented and tasted good.

Let's hope this continues going forward, I'm sure locals will adventure back from what was a unfortunate situation from the past.

Best of luck Chifton Chippy.

These have got to be the best chips I have ever had in my life!

Battered chips are incredible. For those nervous to try them and wanting to stick to the same old regular chips, give them a go, you'll never turn back.

I am not local to the area and usually ordering chips, cheese and gravy gets me some funny looks... but not here. The service is great and the portions are very generous.

Very nice and friendly fish was lovleyx and fresh chips were done in batter best chips I had tasted in long time get a lot for your money

As others have, I had to try again after the change in management.
Nice to see the place looking fresh and clean and welcoming.
What can I say about the chips? Wow!! Amazing, never had anything like them before. Had cone of chips & cod roe. Pleased to see a decent size portion of chips, as the last owners had started to get very mean with their portion sizes.
Friendly staff and very fast service. Especially impressed as the lady that served me explained my roe was slightly larger than normal, not an issue for me at all, be it she wanted to make sure it was cooked throughout. It was beautiful!!
Highly recommend and pleased to see Clifton Chippy back to being a fab local chippy

Nice crispy fish and amazing battered chips and great service

So we ordered online via Deliveroo and when we were missing items and we called them they accused the Deliveroo driving of stealing the missing items! So we decided to share out what was actually delivered and wished we hadn’t - raw fish and soggy batter! To be honest we’re happy we did t get the missing items - less chance of food poisoning
