As of 23rd July 2022 visited Wollaton Fish Bar, at 18:15. Very disappointing today. Used to be a great F&C shop,great quality and piping hot and good portions. But quality has gone down so has the portions sizes and MASSIVE price hikes. According to their online Google menu a large Cod was £4.90 now after calling them today is now £7.80. A small cod was £3.30 now and £5.50. They said the menu images on Google are wrong so why do they not remove them! Their large chips were more like small when opened so they have cut portions sizes, so the quantity and quality has gone down and prices have massively increased, large chips used to be £2.90 now £4.40, and peas also gone up from 0.90p to £1.20p. Also the small fish weighed in at 271grams and large was weighed in at 274grams, was told its down to the batter, what an excuse, just 3 grams difference between small fish and large, what is a medium size then 272.5g? The fish sizes also looked the same, will try and post pictures soon.
So just a short time ago cost it cost £12.05p (bigger portions) today cost £18.80, that's a massive 56% increase. WOW Wow.... 😢😢😢
Cheaper now to go for a pub meal now. Won't be going again for a very long time, these places. If they have increased their prices and reduced sizing so substantially will not survive and close, so they need to watch out as people will vote with their feet as the cost of living tightens, as going out and buying a take away will become a luxury.
Nearly £20 for 2 F&Cs and one small peas!! 🤔🤔
Conclusion - will NOT be returning back to WFB neither to any other F&c shops if this is the prices they are charging now, how much will it go up by too? Would rather sit down in a pub and get served for the same price or less as pubs are more competitive.
On top of this the product was fairly cold, just warm..certainly I am sorry, will start to feel the pinch and go down hill, and they will get their karma as less and less people will purchase from them and other F&C shops.. I personally can see some closing.
What a...
Read moreI called in to order for collection. Two lovely ladies on the phone were so patient with my questions and getting the order right. Was ready to pick up by the time I arrived. They plate it up when I arrived to be sure they make no mistake with my order which I appreciated. When paying, my phone app to pay didn't seem to go thru but the gentleman Costas was kind to help make the payment system work to solve the situation. In the meantime, they put the food to keep it warm while the payment was sorted so they have attention to details also. I am grateful for their kind addition to the order. Overall I had a very good experience. The place was recommended by a friend as being the best for fish and chips from many tried. As a person who was convinced that there is no better food than the one cooked at home, I was surprised by the meal. Haddock was cooked all thru but not dry with a nice crunchy coat. I will certainly keep it in mind to go again there. Thank you...
Read moreMy family have been going to this chip shop for years and would have recommended it to anyone who would ask. I will start with the positives. Nice chips. SOME friendly staff.
Negatives Missed items on several occasions, Impatience when you ask for a receipt and ask them to tick the order off as they have failed to put all items in the bag. Portion decreases Huge price increase Prices seem to alter each week even though you get the same order.
Such a shame as this was such a lovely chip shop. Utterly frustrating once you get home to find a good portion of your order has been missed!!! Once you make the call to let them know.” oh yes sorry we realised when you left, if you would like to nip back in” Not so easy when you are not around the corner.
If you increase the price then decrease the sizes customers will notice.
I doubt they are bothered but it’s safe to say no family member of mine or friends if they ask will be using this...
