Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

My wife and I called in for what we thought would be a quick, simple and nice fish and chip meal before going on to the theatre in Derby. On arrival there was only one other couple seated in the restaurant area and something was...obviously wrong as they were just sending their meals back! Not a good impression to start with! We ordered standard fish and chips but with the fish being steamed. After about 15 minutes the young lad came over and asked how things were, which was surprising as we had not got our food. Clearly he was embarrassed as he thought we had our meal. He said in would not be long. After about another 10 minutes my wife went over to see where the food was. After what must have been about 30 minutes from ordering it eventually came. It had obviously been stood for some while . All the food was terrible, the fish being cold and broken into pieces, but as by now we were running out of time to send it back we ate it quickly. We expressed out dissatisfaction as we left. We have used this establishment over the years and it used to be a full and vibrant restaurant but sadly no longer. Can't see the restaurant side surviving for much longer.More

Ordered a delivery nearly two hours ago and still waiting. When I ring after an hour half was offered no apologies. Apparently it just happens some times. Extremely poor customer service

Fish and chips takeaway is good. Serving staff are ignorant and ignore waiting customers completely. The older lady is 'World Class' at it and appears to be a mentor.... Appallingly bad TBH.

Ordered 2 large cod and chips and was by far the best we have had. Excellent service, staff couldn't do enough to help. Lovely clean and tidy restaurant. Would certainly recommend this place to anyone to visit.

We hesitated about ordering fish & chips from here due to others’ experiences but as our normal place was shut (Ripley’s - superb), we gave it a go. What a mistake. The meal was awful, with cold, stale chips and the most greasy tasteless fish....Neither of us could eat it so in the bin it went, together with the £20 we paid for the privilege. The Seafish used to be a really great takeaway and restaurant but however much we fancy fish & chips on a Sunday, we won’t be returning.More

Ordered a fish and chips with a can of coke for £8! Portion size was very disappointing. Mini fish was below an average size but cooked well. Chips were stale and very few of them. And behold I am hungry an hour later I wouldn't...return.More

Awful chips, Stale. Looked like they’d been made hours ago! Rock hard and grey coloured. Worse chips I’ve ever eaten. Fish was ok, but ordered a large, it was more like a mini fish. Much better chip shops around, so won’t go here ever again!

Takeaway food used to be excellent- cooked to order, yes there was a bit of a wait but the fish was fresh and hot. Now it’s all pre-cooked. The fish was extremely dry and barely hot and the chips overly greasy. Online ordering is a...harrowing experience- the offer Apple Pay but it doesn’t work at all and it takes a alarming long time to acknowledge your order once you’ve provided card details. Feels like a half baked solution provided by a third party “ujustcook”. Opting out of marketing doesn’t stop “ujustcook” from selling your details, still received marketing emails.More

We've only ever had takeaways from here and not for a while, so when we wanted fish and chips, we decided to eat out. It was early afternoon when we arrived and it wasn't busy. There was one person on the desk and she was...serving someone. After she'd finished she went in to the kitchen leaving us standing wondering if we just sat down or waited - so we waited whilst she had a chat. When she came back I asked if we just found a table and the reply was "I'll get to you in a minute", whereupon she left us standing whilst she served two more customers who had by now come to pay bills. We were left standing like naughty schoolchildren. We very nearly walked out, but wanting to eat, we stayed put, and eventually were shown to a table. When the food came the fish was nicely cooked and the peas better than average, but it was flavourless. Together with two drinks it cost nearly £30 - definitely not worth it and it would have been cheaper to take away or even to have gone elsewhere.More

Absolutely awful service. Arrived and the lady behind the bar pointed at a table. The table had no menus and we were told they had ran out! Waited a further 20 mins and decided to leave after 2 other couples! Awful service
