Fantastic food all the meals are fresh and very tasty. Chippy staff are always really friendly and chat to you like they've known you for ages, the place is always clean and the chips are extremely good. I would recommend a visit for a meal, I'm sure you won't be disappointed. Old school though you'll need cash. Parking outside somewhat restricted but side road opposite it always a good option.

The BEST chippy in Liverpool! Highly recommend the crispy chilli chicken and salt and pepper chicken wings. Everything's made fresh potatoes are chopped on site. Family run, and the staff are all lovely.

The new owner is friendly and helpful. Although they officially open at 4:30 they always seem to open early - a good sign. The few meals I have tried have been delicious and reasonably priced, but will try more in the future. Looking forward to trying their special fried rice. We've only had one issue with a savoury that was not wrapped in grease-proof paper, so most of the batter was stuck to the paper and removing it kinda destroyed it, but I hope I was just unlucky and caught them on a day they'd run out, if not they should probably get some and I will improve my rating to 5 stars.
