Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Customers rave about the massive portion sizes, especially of the fish and chips, which leave diners thoroughly satisfied and eager to return. The fish is consistently praised for its quality, perfectly cooked and paired with crisp chips, especially when topped with gravy.
The friendly service is often highlighted, with many noting the staff's efficiency and warmth, making for a pleasant dining experience. The affordability of the menu also garners admiration, fitting for both a student budget and a family outing. Special offers and unique dishes add a layer of excitement for regulars, enhancing the dining adventure.
Most Disliked
While the food is highly rated, patrons sometimes mention the wait times during peak hours, particularly on Friday nights. Despite the reasonably fast service, the crowd can lead to a short delay on the busiest days.
Some diners note limited seating during these peak periods, making it less ideal for larger groups at times. Additionally, while the menu is extensive, a few customers express a desire for more vegetarian options. These minor concerns don’t seem to overshadow the overall enjoyment of the meal experience.

I have eaten here on a few occasions and I have never been disappointed. The prices are reasonable, in line with most other fish and chip shops and the portions are fantastic. The service is efficient and the staff are down to earth. The food itself is great and I cannot fault it at all, anytime I'm in Ballymena I find an excuse to grab diner here. There is an area for sitting in and it also has a bathroom which is disability accessible. The place is clean and tidy and I'd definitely recommend it.
