Ordered the delivery from their website. Only place that delivers in the surrounding area during covid. Reasonable prices, good portion sizes, free delivery (Update: no longer being delivered to my village, so reducing a star) and nice chips and doner meat. Chicken tikka marinade felt like the paste hadn't been cooked properly and was very salty and over powering. Curry sauce was acceptable. Overall, ok.

Not recommended at all. I have ordered Donner and tikka pita for me and my miss and day after we have huge food poisoning... Dish was barely warm and taste of it was like 1.5/5.. all salad is a lot of onions, 5 slices of cucumber and couple leaf's of ice salad... Price is not adequate to quality and taste. I would rather eat frozen pizza from Aldi then visit this place again. 1 attempt never go back again.

Day after my rieview owner want to talk to me about my bad experience. He offered me money return or next meal on house. I believe in second chances so I decided to have another meal some day. Month after my review I decided to try it again. My experience with food are totally opposite. The food was nice, warm and size really decent. I have ordered a doner in pitta and chicken tikka in pitta. Only shame is no vegetables or salad in dish, just flat bread, meat and souce. Generally attitude of owner is 5+ stars and all food owners should have same attitude. But in my opinion there is some place for improvement dishes. I think now 4 star is adequate review.

Great staff. This is the best Fish and Chip shop ever. We have lived in the area for 30 years and found this Fish Bar about eighteen months ago it is simply the best . I recommend Whetstone Fish Bar to everyone, try it for yourself. As they say "the proof is in the pudding ".
Enjoy 😉.

I’ve never used this chippy before, I usually go to Cosby. I ordered food for delivery, it arrived well packed and hot. The chips taste proper good! I’ll definitely be back.

Would give Prits & his team 5 star plus but unfortunately not an option on here. The food is always fresh & very tasty. Plus has plenty of selection besides fish & chips. The tandoori chicken tastes amazing. I would highly recommend the food from here.

Always go here every Friday lunchtime when I can. The chips are lovely, hot and proper chip shop ones cooked to perfection and curry sauce always nice and hot. Really friendly place, staff are lovely. They also do smaller portions of chips called a ‘cone’ but it comes in a small box - perfect for lunchtime. Always a nice vibe in this place.

Ordered a large mixed meat and chips.
Portion was good, there was a lot of food!
The chips were pretty good. The donner is nice but they put the wrong sauce on my food which wasn’t ideal but not the worst thing.
The chicken tikka is poor, I mean it’s really poor. There is nothing authentic about it. Tastes like it’s been coated in a ready made tikka paste and cooked in the oven.

I may still go back but would steer well clear of the ‘chicken tikka’!!

My chippy of choice! reasonably priced and you get a good amount of food for your money. Chips are always done well and a top quality kebab!
