Parkgate Fish & Chips in Cheshire West and Chester

Excellent food, highly recommend

Always visit for fish & chips - again lovely and fresh and lovely friendly service. Not loving the round paper bowls you’re serving in. Really difficult to eat from 😕

Lovely little Chippy.Never been disappointed.Can get busy but well worth the wait.

The food was absolutely delicious! Best fish & chips I've had! The gentleman serving me was friendly and polite and the atmosphere was spot on.

Fantastic sausage chips and curry experience 😊 on the pricey side, sure but I'm totally on board with expensive if it's done well. As with their restaurant down the road it is a great standard of food presented well in a nice setting. Thanks.

Unfortunately seems to not be as good as it’s past, fish was heavier and greasier. Used to be fresher and light.

Lovely chippy well worth a visit. I'd deffinatly visit again. The sausage was one of the best chip shop sausages I've ever had.

Very disappointed. Visited with my wife for lunch. Fish, chips and peas all put on top of each other in a paper bowl resulting in the chips being soggy and all very difficult to eat. Hardly value for money @£23, including 2 x canned drinks

Great traditional chippy. Eat in or takeaway. No

Not bad, but not the best. The fish meal was served in a "Chow's street food" circular tub; a simple takeaway tray would have been easier as everything was squashed together. Don't know if it was because I was served during lunchtime, but the chips didn't taste like chip-shop chips, more like the chips you get in the pub. The peas were nice, but the fish batter was on the thin side. The staff are very friendly though and service was quick.

Disappointed. Small,greasy fish with small portion of chips served in paper bowls that cause the food to stick. Was really looking forward to eating there but there are much better chip shops on the Wirral. Have to say it was seriously overpriced as well, it must have been good once judging by it's reputation but it's definetely living on former glories now.

Had takeaway fish and chips which are definitely the best in the area.

Great chippy, nice chips not greasy at all. Gluten free fish option too. Updating this review as on my last visit to one of my favourite local chippy's I was really disappointed with the reduced size of the portions in the newly acquired containers they are using. I'm usually satisfied after my chippy tea and it's a lovely treat but the smaller tubs for food are way too small forymy appetite. I will not be forking our this much money on tiny portions again especially for our family of four. The chips are still good of course just not enough of them. Very sad

Fish chips mushy peas now served in a rediculous round tub made it very difficult to eat bring back the tray

Salt & Chilli King Prawns are delicious. So tasty.

There's a new dog ban which can be a nightmare now when it's miserable outside. Whilst I realise there's always going to be complainers (says me, writing here!) but I think when it was dog friendly, for years, it was a net positive situation. Now it's a pain because if you've walked the dog down there and don't realise they've changed the rules (like me and three other groups of people I saw), you're sitting outside in the cold and, right next to the road, which is especially not great with dog. Food good. Shame they've also done away with the baps.

Best fish and chip I've found in the area. 100% recommended

Absolutely brilliant fish and chips. Go and try you won't be disappointed.

Been coming for 15 years, but a very different experience now. No cod, instead a cheaper fish (despite cod being on menu and me asking for it). Wouldn’t travel for this now.

Have eaten here a few times now - fish and chips, salt and chilli chicken, salt and chilli wings, all top quality.

The best fish and chips and curry sauce and mushy peas.

Lovely fresh fish and chips from Parkgates best chippy!

Quality gone down since 2022, could because it is too popular

Came for a lovely walk with the dogs along the front and back for fish and chips. The fish and chips was piping hot and was perfect. Not the cheapest meal but great views across the River Dee.

Very good food and friendly atmosphere

Simply the best fish and chips. Sausage too, seriously it's like a Cumberland breakfast sozzy, best I've ever had from a chippy. Normally have this to take away but recently stayed in on a windy evening. Making the chippy a welcome port in a storm! Never had a bad fish here, perfectly sized portion and chips are nice and crispy. Staff are quick and friendly. Won't have fish and chips anywhere else

Traditional seaside chipshop. The sea may have long since left the side, but it's still a great place to grab a bite to eat on the front

Fish was excellent 👌 Chips good, but a wee bit greasy Sausage was top notch Over all really very good

Travel for miles for fish and chips here.

Great to take stroll along waterside in Parkgate, Whilst enjoying some fantastic fish & chips 🍟

Best chips for miles and miles (and we've tried them all!!) Lovely lovely staff, from the young man greeting you at the door to the behind-the-counter team who can't do enough for you. Arrived late on a Saturday evening expecting it to be packed but thrilled to find we could sit and savour our meals at a leisurely pace. Hot, crispy-on-the-outside-but-squishy-in-the-middle chip heaven and two HUGE slabs of white doorstop bread for the 'butty' bit. Indulgent, excellent value, delish and provided by lovely people. Lucky to have Parkgate Fish and Chips on our doorstep! Thankyou all!

Not a clue how they were awarded a Blue Ribbon. Standard chips and a small, greasy fish. No better than any other chip shop but with smaller portions and they are more expensive.

Came here looking forward to our tea, we ordered fish chips and curry, the food was lovely ,but very small portions of curry sauce and also very dissatisfied with the new round serving pots, much preferred ( and probably cheaper for the owner) the ordinary trays they used to give you.

We have always had a lovley experience but to day was really not good, we have allways had fantastic fish and chips and curry, with ample curry this time very little curry I had to go to the counter and paynearly £3.00 for more woaman said we had a small portion, in truth since winning 2024 for best fish and chips ithas made them geedy.they have changedtosmallwr roundtable leaving my fish and chips very dry. This place e needs to know people like us keep him going in the winter months when the tourists go home. I am sorry to write a review like this as inthe past he has deserved every good review from customers.

Hadn't been for years but had an Australian visitor so decided to go. Wasn't a bad choice! The day was cold and miserable for early September but the food more than made up for it! It was freshly cooked, piping hot and absolutely delicious. So glad we took our visitor! Highly recommended and will be going back again soon!

Been coming to this chippy fo 20 plus years. Never again. Soggy greasy chips same with fish. Curry I used to love tasted of flour. Very sad. Won’t be back.

A bit pricey but the fish is very good

Excellent fish and Chips batter was crispy and tasty chips were really good as well well worth a visit will be back when in the area and then ice cream from Nicholls the best ice cream I've had

Wow the best fish n chips ever! Delicious and Wow so hot, even to the last chip eaten. Would definately recommend if you are in the area 👍

They have changed the container to ridiculous little cardboard bowls similar to a noodle bowl with the chips spilling out and the fish on top. Nowhere to put peas or curry on the side and no lid. 7 of us were all were furious and said never again!

Best fish and chips 😋, light crispy batter, slight crunch to the outside of the chips with a soft centre -perfect

Despite being very busy, service was prompt and the food was good quality. But the only fish option was cod.

Excellent fish and chips. Well worth the queueing time.

Very well know for it's quality, Recently however the fish has taken a massive nosedive. What they present you with now is a small round thin piece of fish which crumbles away when you try to eat it. Also the chips here were always really tasty well cooked chips, mine were way over cooked amd were like a of batter rather that fluffy inside, with no flavour. I hope they read this and go bk to the original standard. Until then it's another place I won't be spending my money in.

Perfect fish and chips ...the best I've tasted.

friendly waiter, food top quality and overall good atmosphere between the staff and in the shop.

The chips are lovely but £3.50 a portion is outrageous

This would get six stars if the portions were just a bit more generous. The food is very good but, for the money, the chip portion sizes are indefensible imo.

An unplanned trip here, bit of a queue and on the pricey side so expectations were high and they didnt disappoint. Good fish, nice batter and possibly the best chips ive had, reminded me of perfect fluffy roasties. Im a big eater and the portion size left me satisfied.

Some of the best chips I ever ever had for. The chippy, nice crispy texture with a fluffy centre nuggets were great too!

Fresh and delicious fish and chips in a beautiful and peaceful place

Have been going here for many many years. Was always brilliant.However today was such a disappointment. The quality was very good hence 2 stars but £4.50 for what was called a large portion of chips..was hardly medium! And the smallest fish I have ever had was very poor. Basically 2 portions of chips to take out would be nearly £10! Way too expensive. My fish looked round and flat and no comparison to pieces had before! Sorry won't go again..a real pleasure lost due to ridiculous shrinkage of portions. Wish I had taken photo to support my oppion.

Lovely place to sit and have fish and chips.

Great fish with mushy peas 👌🐟🍟🫛

Best chippy in the world bar none A***

Nice place a little over priced

Nice food and fast service, but not the cheapest place around, I guess you're paying extra for the location. There's seating inside and out.

Love visiting parkgate so we decided to try out this chippy about overhearing other people raving about it. Very expensive for pretty poor food in my opinion, the food was greasy and tasted of the oil, it wasn't pleasant to eat. There are plenty other eateriesalomg the stretch of parkgate. Staff weren't he friendliest bunch of people either. You do have the option of eating in, ot does get busy but there are benches close by, but you maybe pestered by the black headed gulls.

Excellent fish and chips be back soon.

Top quality chips here, just seems a little on the pricey side to me, hence 4 not 5 stars overall.

Expensive for the quantity that was served..but good quality fish was used

Fish & chips known there, I'm not really a fan of this type of cuisine. We like it or we don't like it. I didn't like it.

Great Fish and Chips. Prepared fresh which is always a good thing. Was miles out if my way bit it was worth the effort to visit. Would definitely recommend. There are a few tables inside if you wish to sit down

Excellent fish & chips and nice atmosphere 🐟🍟😋 #foodie #yum #restaurant

Chippy with seating. Staff smiling felt welcomed, food cooked fresh, so a little wait but lovely tasty fish. Various seating, comfy enough to sit and eat your meal from the take away boxes. Kept clean by staff and customers.

Large portions of fresh Cod in perfect crispy batter and perfect chips. The sausage is also very tasty. You have the option to eat in with beautiful views of Wales and the Dee estuary nature reserve. The family service is very efficient and friendly. The business benefits from 5 star hygiene, the best score given by The Environmental Health's "Scores on the doors system. Highly recommended, well done to all involved with this popular draw to visitors.

Best fish and chips around Travelled from Eport to get them

Best chippy I have been to in a while, the chips weren't greasy soggy or horrible they were lovely, fresh and crispy. Reasonable price, service was lovely, quiet little restaurant by a gorgeous view of greenery.

Heard great things about this place so had to try it whilst in the area( actually went back the next week) Great service, delicious fish and chips plus nice area to eat in or take out . Parking could be a problem but we went on our bikes and leaned them up outside.

Really tasty fish and chips. Go quite often, never disappointed.

Best fish and chips ever!! Bit pricy but sooooo worth it

Great food but so expensive, I get that people will pay it due to the location but even a portion of chips and curry will set you back!

Hands down, my favourite fish and chips in the North West. The chips were so tasty, the fish was light and juicy and the batter light and crispy. The quality is exceptional. I thought the portion seemed a tiny bit smaller than my last visit but to be honest, this made it more manageable. And I was able to finish my friend's portion:)

Great little chippy this, overlooking the north Wales border, inside and outside seating, chunky chips were lovely, nice friendly staff, keenly priced

We love this place but this time the portion was smaller than usual and the sauces and the peas were tasteless ,this was a bad experience

Fish and chips here was really nice, great fast service and food was piping hot too!

Always very good but always order the large fish!

Top notch chippy on the front at Parkgate 👍 it was a horrible rainy day & it was still busy! You can dine in as well. It's not cheap . . . £11.80 for fish, chips & mushy peas but it was delicious 😀 friendly service too. It's not easy to park though even on a grotty day!!

Great to be able to have gluten free fish and chips

Fantastic food here with a smile! I had chicken & Chips and Aled had Fish & Chips. You won't get better than this guys 😀

The staff were rude and on attentive and didn’t show interest in customer. The food ( fish and chips) were ok but the portions are what you call small ! The price for two (very small) fish and one portion of chips was £21.20 !!! Over priced and very over rated Can’t say I’d recommend this to anyone

The portion was quite small, considering it cost over £10 for a fish n chips but hot damn it was sooooo good. It was gone before I even thought of a photo, lol.

Chips were horrid , fish was ok but a bit skinny , price was way too high, we will not be going again, I would rather pay more for good pub food

Where else but here to taste the best Fish & Chips and soak up the wonderful atmosphere. The view of Wales is just the icing on the cake.

Very impressed with the chip butty! I didn't expect so many chips! Very nice.

crispy and juice fried fish love their chips. the staff are super friendly.

Too expensive. Food is great but just so overpriced. On my last visit on my fish dinner they forgot the fish, didn’t notice until I got home.

I'm hoping we got them on a bad day, I'm afraid. I've been before and it was yummy but this time the oil was strong, chips were hard n I left a bit like a skate...flat. I did take mine back without fuss...Wirral eateries, you've gotta get a grip. People are seeing food how it should be made,cared for and presented and you've gotta up it a few notches...just saying 🙂

Place has gone downhill, chips were stale and the fish was tasteless. Staff, very abrupt with no manners. 40p for a squirt of ketchup is ridiculous!

Best fish and chips on the Wirral!

Best fish & chips on the Wirral

Delicious food at a beautiful place, although expensive for the size of the portions.

Fish, chips and mushy peas...yum. portions are quite large, so I couldn't eat it all.

Over priced over rated portions have gone a lot smaller, and prices have gone up

Excellent consistent food quality and good service especially from waiter staff.

Massive pieces of fish and delicious freshly cooked chips... definitely a must of you like a quality fish chips and mushy peas dinner!

Went over a weekend first fish was not cooked, the second was all batter and the third was like a skin graft it was that thin. Extremely disappointed with quality of food,

You may have to clean your own table :)

Went Saturday night about 6pm (So not just opened or closing) and my fish was luke warm and not much of it either, but chips were a bit better but overall portions small for cost. So for that reason I will never go back to this chip shop again and will buy elsewhere.

The best chippy. The fresh and not frozen cod is cooked fresh to order. It is our favourite place. They sell lovely pies and also teas, coffees, beer and wine.
