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.

I've been a Bankers regular for 10 years as I live locally. I just wanted to say the chips have drastically improved recently. They used to be too dry, too thick and too stiff. Now they're more like the fish and chips I remember as...a kid, but better quality. Keep it up!More

This chip shop used to be great, but after our last experience we won’t be back. Service was slow - 25mins for a takeaway, the staff rude - at one point even shouting at an elderly couple, finally the chips were well below average once...we finally got them. Why would you go here when there are so many other chippies to choose from?More

This restaurant has got a name, however we dont know why. Its below average. The staff are rather bored of the costumers. We really had the feeling that they are just there to put a plate on your table and that is the most. Fish...was greasy, chips was awful raw. We are sure you could do better both service and food quality wise....More

Brilliant fried cod, chips and mushy peas, accompanied by a nice sauvignon blanc, on a very blustery day. Couldn’t ask for more!

Total miscommunication with click and collect ordering. Stood in the queue for about 20 minutes to find out that our food was waiting ready. I had already asked about the code I was given online for the click and collect order and was told don’t...worry it’s in process and would be ready soon. Can’t say neither food is excellent, but the ordering process is shambolic. Just for the record, there was no vinegar on my chips either, and we ordered the pot of tartar sauce to Heinz squeezy samples instead. Still, the cod and chips was very good. I should know, my dad was in fish and chips for 30 years.More

Pleasant walk from city centre and easy to find via Google maps. Good traditional fish and chips restaurant with takeaway and sit down options. Large portion sizes. Nice fresh fish. Batter was just right. Starter of squid was great. Service was good.

You all should be ashamed it's the least you can do!!! We will avoid at all cost!!! Absolutely unacceptable rude behaviour. I have never left a negative review ever but here it is. We went to this Fish and Chip place called BANKERS on 28/5....Least to say the experience was distasteful, disrespectful and rotten, of course we will never return back. We were 10 people 6 adults and 4 children, we asked for a table for 10 and we were cramped on a table of 6. We didn't mind as we were hungry and we just needed a place to feed the kids so we took that table. We ordered the food and drinks after speaking to the waitress as we were running short of time and we wanted our food quick, till this point all was ok. The drinks arrived and then the food arrived on our table which was served to us by someone called JOE, we asked for some extra plates which he did but did not seem happy while doing his, our one of the main course was not delivered with the rest of the order so we waited patiently and when no one turned up we contacted the lady who took our order after 20 minutes of wait as no-one bothered to check on us. How the food was? Or do we need anything? A basic curiosity of a normal running restaurant which seemed too much of a ask what followed next. So we were told, the chef has had an accident in the kitchen and he is preparing the dish again so we waited patiently again, by this time everyone else has finished the lunch and the last dish which we are waiting now for 40-45 minutes arrives. So JOE gets this dish again, we asked why it took so long? and the moment we asked he has a aggressive uncontrolled fit and he starts yelling and shouting and told us you should have asked? And his rant went on and on...we were stunned and shocked by his behaviour making a genuine situation so uncomfortable as everyone in the restaurant started looking at us and we're flabbergasted with embarrassment. We had kids with us and we were a group with 2 elderly people as well who were visiting us from a foreign country they were left dismayed by JOE’S action. We didn't understand the need of this behaviour and he kept on and on in between all on the table at some point tried to speak to him but he was furious with no reason but he kept yelling and was very disrespectful, we just returned the dish back as we didn't want to be there for even a single second. We asked politely again to speak to the manager and we were told that she only works Monday to Friday her name is Maria so there is no one whom we can speak too, the waitress kept apologising and she said he is having a bad day etc etc. So we paid all our bill and we left never to come back again. This completely ruined our day and I think this is a very common practice here as I happen to read the other peoples reviews and they are on same lines. This place is in business with this attitude is appalling in it self. The food is average and is acceptable but The service is atrocious and it's hard to digest that in current days and age someone can shout at their paying customers and be aggressive and still gets away with this . Absolutely unbelievable.More

Really enjoyed the food. Took a bit longer but well worth it and very fresh. There's emphasis on tipping on the menu and then again hand written on the bill pushing for cash tips. Actually left less for them asking 🤔

Visited Hangleton F&C shop for the first time and last time. I asked if my fish could be cooked fresh and lightly battered. I had to cancel my additional order of a carton of mushy peas due to the price £2.65 ! Really? The sales...advisor rolled his eyes. An elderly unkempt looking chap with a beard and glasses. He didn't ask me if it was take away or sit in. As the miserable sod was wrapping up my meal - I asked if I could sit in He rolled his eyes again. As I walked away he said to the young lad "There is always one!" My meal took ten minutes to arrive The very same fish and chips he was wrapping up could have easily been transferred to a plate. When I asked what the delay was - he replied in an unfriendly tone - we were cooking your fish from fresh So what was the fish he was wrapping up? I won't be visiting again nor my family due to the awful experience I had today Tuesday 28th February at 14.30pm Change your job mate if you don't enjoy a customer facing role!More
