Having read about Burton Road Chippy a lot over the past few months, I was really keen to give it try. I love fish and chips, but only when they are done well. The restaurant is lovely. Modern, well laid out, bright and very clean. The waitresses are excellent, friendly and helpful and the service was really quick. We order... More

Usually chip shop chips makes me quite unwell, but Burton Road's chips do not because they are so fresh, ungreasy, and most of all, tasty. When we have fish and chips, we always come here and it's always busy, but despite this, there's never a long wait. I've only had fish here, but that's because you can taste the freshness,... More

Having previously eaten in the restaurant side in which the food was great, we were disappointed with the waitresses or the "supervisors"lack of service.... And personality!!!! We were put off, but divided on wether to go back again. So having said about the girl we thought we would try again but the Take Away side instead as we enjoyed the... More

Well cooked and a large choice of products, especially calamari! It has won the Best Fish and Chips Award for 2012-13, so there was a large queue of hungry people which says something. The small restaurant was packed. Must go again.

After a long day and couldn't be bothered to cook we decided to try Burton Road Chippy after hearing about it from friends...We decided to have a takeaway and there was a bit of a queue, but this went down very quickly, so not a problem! The staff were very polite and courteous, the portions were great value and the... More

Ate here last year and found it very good value for money. Ordered from the takeaway last week and could not believe how small the portions were. I ordered a large and a mini fish and there was not a lot of difference in the size! I asked the trainee supervisor why the pieces of fish were almost the same... More

I'm sorry you have had a disappointing visit, our mini fish is approximately 4-5oz, regular is 6-7oz and large 8-10oz and you should have had this explained to you. I will be speaking to the staff member about this, I will also be speaking to the fryers to ensure consistency is maintained. Obviously some pieces of fish can seem smaller... More

When you hear that a restaurant has won awards, you expect all the fine details to be perfect, even for a chippy. This was sadly not the case. Arrived 6pm on a Wednesday evening, the restaurant was probably half full but the staff were still polite, smiling and attentive. Food n drink arrived promptly. First issue was the tea. Was... More

Thank you for taking the time to visit us and write a review, we do take notice and learn from them, however our tea bags are PG tips and we do offer Earl Grey on request, we do not use a spread of any sort on our bread and can assure you it is butter. Our staff are currently under... More

Although we squeaked in a few moments after 2pm, just as the lunch time session was ending and the restaurant was about to close, the pleasant staff agreed to serve us. We weren't rushed, our order arrived promptly, and we were well satisfied with our haddock, chips and mushy peas. Quite simply, we couldn't fault the food, the service, or... More
