The fish and chips were proper&mdash;crispy batter that actually stayed crunchy, and the cod was fresh and flaky. I&rsquo;ve had worse at places charging double. The chocolate cake surprised me too, not overly sweet and a decent size for the price. Only downside was the wait, took a good 15 minutes past when they said it&rsquo;d be ready. Still, I&rsquo;d go back for that fish.

Been here a few times now. Still like the homely vibe and the staff remember you. Decor&#39;s got those little details that make it feel personal.
