Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Patrons rave about the exceptional quality of the fish, particularly the flaky cod wrapped in a perfectly crispy batter. The chips, often highlighted in reviews, are described as the best in town—crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. A favorite combination is pairing these with the tangy curry sauce, which many deem a must-try. The kid’s menu receives praise for its variety, ensuring even the youngest diners find a dish they love.
The friendly staff enhance the experience, often going the extra mile to customize orders, such as extra vinegar for chip lovers. Many also appreciate the reasonable pricing, making it easy to enjoy a delicious meal without breaking the bank. Walkers has genuinely improved over the years, earning a loyal following of both locals and visitors.
Most Disliked
One common complaint relates to the occasional inconsistency in the oil quality, leading some to describe the food as overly oily on certain visits. While many find the flavor delightful, a few diners have expressed concerns that the batter can sometimes overshadow the fresh fish. Online reviews indicate that the raucous atmosphere during peak hours can detract from the dining experience, making it less ideal for those seeking a quiet meal.
Some customers have also mentioned that the parking can be tricky during busy times, especially evenings and weekends. While the street parking is convenient, finding a spot can be a challenge when the restaurant is at full capacity. Overall, while these issues may take the edge off an otherwise great experience, they haven't stopped patrons from returning time and time again.

Had a really great F&C + vegan sausage & chip meal here tonight. Impeccably clean restaurant with a bright and pleasant atmosphere. Full of admiration in that just two people working were able to manage the ordering, cooking and service for both the restaurant and takeaway in such a pleasant, friendly manner and with such efficiency. A lovely tasty meal, perfectly cooked and served with genuine kindness… and despite how busy they were there was still time to check if everything was good. It certainly was … VERY good! Thank you. Will be back.

A bit pricey but hands down the best fish and chips I have ever had. Chicken burger was of the highest quality, and chips were cooked in the best way I have ever seen - full of flavour! Service was quick and it was all freshly cooked. Absolutely delicious.
