They do takeaway only. We were there on Friday evening and the place is packed. Food took about 20 mins to come out. We learned some people ordered online and come to pick up, so they don't have to wait long. I feel the fish, chips, chicken goujons and onion rings are of the better quality chipper. Does not come out too greasy. What I am impressed we got 2 battered sausages and they used breakfast sausages instead of hod dogs that I'm used to seeing.

Takeaway
Great chippy!! Can’t wait to come back and try the rest of the menu. My group had fish and chips, which were served crispy and hot. Should’ve asked for the extra salt they offered for the fish, but it was still tasty. Other menu items include burgers, fried chicken, milkshakes, and a variety of chips.
Best chips in town. Love the curry sauce! Hard to beat. Love this place.
