Normally when you walk past a Fish & Chip shop you are usually greeted with a wonderful aroma which makes

you hungry and want to eat Fish & Chips.


Walking past Fish and Chips and More something is missing. ? Have they installed very efficient extractors

and aroma filters..

We have been using this place for fish and chips since it opened. When it first opened, the quality was very high but over the past 6-12 months (we probably have fish and chips every couple of months) the quality has been steadily going downhill.


Last night our fish was thin, lacked a flaky texture, the batter was greasy and had a chemical-like taste; the chips were soggy and poor quality. Added to this I could see the staff rubbing their faces, touching their hair, etc and then preparing/ serving food. So, due to a combination of poor quality and hygiene we won't be going again.

Thin fish that is not flaky is likely to be Pollock (a cheap alternative) some fish shops are passing

on illegally as Cod. Fish advertised as Cod has to BE Cod.


It can be identified by a pinkish colour.. and a mushy wet texture.

I find Sema on Underhill road, near Exhibition really good. they seem to be really anal about cleanliness and cook the fish there and then for you. You can even phone them up and order and go collect so you do not have to wait around. The only word of warning is that sometimes i have caught them trying to pass off a small/medium cod as a large so i always ask them when they serve me to make sure. The portions are big though

SEMA's was always my favourite but I suspect that on occasion they have substituted Cod with Pollock..


I have questioned them on this issue and they deny this practice..


Look out for thin fish with pinkish mushy flesh.. Cod has a pure white flaky texture..

    • Sue My point being that if you experience something that could potentially be sorted by a GP, you might feel it necessary to go to A&E, which would be clogged up due to the doctors strike.  Just my opinion, but I don't really see that its necessary to close a surgery for half a day for staff training.  
    • A huge shout-out to Andy! He’s helped us several times now and is an absolute gem. He doesn't just do the easy jobs; he finds solutions to the difficult, non-obvious problems that others might miss. He is very hard working, incredibly friendly, great with pets, and always leaves the place better than he found it. 10/10! 
    • Here to add my voice to those praising Temi. She just painted my dilapidated home office in ED and did a fantastic job in just two days in a much lighter colour, including woodwork, damp blocker and filling holes. She's efficient, on time and I barely heard a peep out of her; she just got on with the job. I recommend her wholeheartedly. 
    • The residents & families of the estate are getting parking fines,  out of the blue , the residents parking system waa changed from Southern to Sippi with cameras put up in the car park and people issued with fines entering the estate for more then 10 minutes , families can no longer pick up or drop off family due to a new 10 minute wait fine. Residents are appealing with Sippi and Southern as there was no letters to consult of a parking change,  new waiting times or fines, delivery drivers are getting fines everyday,  if you get a fine,  appeal it, there is no signage up to say about parking fines or waiting time
