Golden Union

Went here yesterday early evening with my Mum and two sisters after a bit of shopping. Mum fancied fish and chips and having eaten a takeaway from here I suggested we try the sit down option. It was just what we were looking for – very satisfying food, quick friendly service, spotlessly clean plus we spent around £15 per head. Two of us had the scampi which was tasty and the tartare sauce, which was homemade we were told, was delicious. Mum thoroughly enjoyed her cod and, living in a seaside town with a huge variety of chippies on offer, she said she was pleasantly surprised at the quality. Portions here are big too. I'll be going back.

I've been once to eat in and once for take away. It's a chip shop and for the most part it does exactly what it says on the tin. It was clean and bright and much more inviting in its appearance than most. The portions sizes were good and competively priced for the location. The quality and flavour of the chips suggested the oil HAD been changed recently (i.e they didn't taste like fish or anything else).

Unfortunately, service was not with a smile and staff gave the distinct impression they would rather be somewhere else. Maybe I got them on a bad day.
