This is the 1st time I've place order for delivery As my Hubby normally comes in on Friday but he's always on last minute when you are closing. Then he goes to another one which is awful. So I've searched online to see if you deliver And to my excitement you did. And you have not disappointed on your freshness of the food and red hot aswell. So now I've told hubby if he going to be late we still can have our favourite Chippy tea best one in Atherton by far

Absolutely fantastic chippy. Called in to fill our bellies before going to proms in the park. Took advantage of the pie and chips offer. Absolutely delicious chips, good pie and lovely curry sauce. Plus drink a for £5 each. The ladys behind the counter are an asset to the business. Plenty smiles and seem glad to work there. Will definitely be back.

A few of us called in on Saturday afternoon. I had fish and peas with a few scraps. We ate them at the pub and I devoured it. Fish was meaty with a crispy batter. The peas were proper mushy peas. Think the cost was £6 30. Worth every penny, and the staff are lovely.
