Food: I think we just got a bad batch of chips because we were not locals or old chips stuck in the fryer.. they were badš. The main disappointing thing is that they were inspected by 3 members of staff but no-one stopped them being served. However,Cod was fantastic, lovely batter. Mushy Peas were just a pea mash .. instead of a mush probably due to over blitzing. Mushy peas are supposed to be like crushed peas not a pea paste mash. Again not spotted by the staff. Service: Very friendly and smart looking. Although didn't know what onion vinegar was...even though they stocked it, was not sure how to add it to chips. Some local guy came in and the staff took his order after me but was served before me for the same order. I was told to wait for fresh chips.....so very confused to get such bad chips. Atmosphere: Clean. Very busy around the entrance way. Backend of the shop was dark and closed off. Could do with changing the front to double or triple door frontage and moving counter back 4 feet....
Overall: With some staff training and maybe a redesign of the front on the next refurb cycle, this place has great potential to be the best chippy in town.ot is already loved...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreMy family and I began living in Dawlish in 2016 and due to family issues, we hadn't found or been able to enjoy a decent fish and chips meal until towards the end of 2017! We decided to give Chips A'Hoy a try after disappointing experiences elsewhere and we were not let down by this delicious experience! With a very generous portion of fish and chips per customer, I had a wonderful dinner and then some for leftovers later that evening which still tasted amazing! Fresh, clean and not soggy at all after getting salt and vinegar, I think we've found our dream chippy that is not only tasty but well-priced. My mother who suffered poorly from cancer wanted to give thanks but did not have a google account, so I'm replying to let you know tonight's dinner was very much...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreHubby had a beautiful medium cod and chips Saturday night, absolutely huge piece of cod for a medium, even their small cod that one of my sons had was bigger than the so called large cod we had from a certain chippy in Dawlish "Warren" a few weeks back. My other son and I had jumbo battered sausage and chips each and they were absolutely lovely. Curry sauce and mushy peas were lovely, all cooked fresh and all served with a smile and a friendly chat . Highly recommended traditional chippy that cares about its customers and its food and is very reasonably priced in the current climate. Yes it's usually busy at weekends but well worth the wait for the quality of food they serve. See...
