Reviews Summary

Diners praise the perfectly cooked, flaky fish and crispy chips, often highlighted as being as good as seaside takeaways. The picturesque riverside location adds to the charm. However, some reviews mention issues with undercooked items like scallops and pies, inconsistent quality, and high prices for some items, alongside concerns about staff attentiveness and accessibility for wheelchair users.

"I've become a bit of a fish & chips snob, my fish of choice is Haddock with it's better texture and sweetness compared to Cod. The thing that ruins the taste is overcooked fish and undercooked chips... Neither of these issues were experienced here, the fish and chips were freshly cooked to perfection. Located so close to the river, with plenty of benches what better way to enjoy fish and chips sitting watching the river. I highly recommend this place, I haven't tried any other shops in Bakewell so hard to compare but... You can't go too far wrong here. I would definitely visit again when next visiting the peak district."

David Rudgley

"Expect to be ignored if your in a wheelchair, expect the staff not to even blink if you are paralysed so you put yourself on the floor drag yourself and your wheelchair into their establishment and then have to get back in your wheelchair to be just to be served before doing the whole thing again to be able to leave their open fronted shop with large step. Staff clearly only think able bodied people should be able to purchase their dinner there."

Niamh Simmons

"I decided to come here and try out the local chippy, with mixed reviews. I entered and was greeted with a smile, I asked if they did Yorkshire fishcakes and by my surprise they did, however, the scallops was a little undercooked and the fish was quite chewy and crunchy, after finding a bone, it must have been the tail of the fish. Bit was still tasty. I enjoyed the large portion of chips. However, was quite pricey, for chips and a fishcake butty, just under 8 pounds. I definitely would give them another chance."

Exploring the Old Market Town of Bakewell, England

Meandering through the Peak DIstrict for 15 miles is the beautiful River Wye. The river is typical of an old market town and just adds to the serenity of Bakewell. Take some time out to wander along the riverside and spot the local wildlife against the backdrop of the ancient five arch bridge.
