Quirky place with an awesome menu. I couldn't decide between fish or waffles as I love both and we went for brunch so I ended up getting chips which were fantastic, and the Halloween special waffle which was yummy and very Instagram worthy! My friends are vegan and vegetarian and they were very happy with the options available to them. Would love to return for fish and chips and waffles!

After living in the area for more than 3 years, we finally gave the cod and waffle a visit. It’s nice, spacious and bright inside with windows the whole length of the building. Service was great. We were seated straight away and able to order drinks. Their coffee was very nice. Moving to mains, their food lives up to the hype. They serve authentic tasting fish and chips in here which I didn’t expect. The cod looks freshly battered and tastes the part too. Gorgeous with their homemade tartare sauce. The chips are so morish as well. Same ones you’d get from a chippy. My stack burger however was the star of the show. Had it with some thick cut smoked bacon, burger sauce, pickles and cheese. Very messy but so succulent and flavourful. I was amazed that we have this food on our doorstep. They also have a selection of imported soft drinks and candies from the US/china which is an interesting touch!

We had a meal here today for our son’s 5th birthday with family. The staff couldn’t do enough for us and we’re really attentive! The food was lovely and very reasonably priced for 14 people. They have a great soft play/toy corner for kids too which kept them all amused until food came. We will be back!

We had a takeaway last night, the haddock was cooked to perfection and the chips were also cooked to perfection. This is the best place to get gluten free fish and chips
