"It’s great to find a fish and chip shop that offers gluten free fish and chips and more – even better when it’s so tasty.

"The owner understands the importance of gluten free food and her staff are trained up to her standards. The shop can be very busy so please allow a bit of waiting time or phone ahead."

"Fabulous fish and chips!

"This was the first time we have been here and it certainly won't be the last. The queue is there for a reason!

"The fish and chips were freshly cooked to order. The tasty cod was cooked in a delicious batter and the chips were fluffy and not at all greasy. The portions were generous.

"A great start to the weekend!"
