Waterloo Fisheries and Chinese Takeaways

Fish and Chips are always fresh although can sometimes be slightly oily. Chips are on point and service is brilliant, no matter who’s behind the counter. They can get really busy on Fri and Sat so be prepared for a bit of a wait. Place is neat and clean.

Pleasing to the eye was the golden hue, the freshness of scent on the nose, the golden crunch to the ears and bite, topped with the deliciousness to the palette!nnI am pleased to see the trend of mash being used is common place, and WCT was onboard with it. Good portion size with a good balance of corn.nnThe chips where on point, and like the fritter, crunchy on the outside with a pillowy centre.nnOverall, this was a complete set. There was a hint of oiliness in the fish and fritter but not enough to detract from the overall experience.

First experience quality and taste of product was real good. 2nd time OK, third time average. However I reached out to I guess the owner and let her know about the Quality. She welcomed the feedback. Respond by saying, next time you ring and explain how you want your food cooked and seasoned and we will prepare it accordingly. Thanked me for the feedback. Been back there occasionally when we need take out since with no qualms.
