Best Chippy I’ve had in a long time, great food, quick and friendly service, couldn’t fault it. Plenty of space to take the family and overall price was cheap for the amount of food we received.

The food is absolutely fantastic... I am a meat eater and have a fine taste for all things chicken! Hands down the best special chicken burger I've ever had in my life!! My parentner.. for all her sins, is a veggie and I quote "this is my favourite takeaway"!! The price is more than fair with the portion sizes extremely generous (try the cheesy chips)!! Thank you for your service! X

Having not been to a chippy in years, this place was a tasty and welcome reintroduction. I had the halloumi bites with small chips and a side of garden peas, which was more than enough for my ravenous stomach, so had to share with my partner. The halloumi was melt-in-mouth sumptuous with light fluffy batter, while the chips were not too greasy and the peas flavoursome. Service was very friendly and considerate. Overall, an enjoyable, affordable visit – and one I'd not hesitate to repeat.

Visited on a Monday at around 7.30pm, it was crazy busy with delivery drivers - every minute another one arrived. I ordered takeaway fish and chips which did take a while but the service was efficient and price very good. Large chips was a generous portion. The food was excellent, nicely battered fish and the chips were very nice as well. It's probably better to order online rather than turn up as I did.

Super value for money. We had small cod with small chips and plaice with small chips. Smashed peas, tartan sauce. Ambiente is fast-food-look, but the food is great. (Except for the flavored fake malt vinegar ... but rest ist great).

Really nice people, had a scampi and chips. Scampi was full of flavour which is not always the case. Had some not long before that was bland.

I was very impressed by the quality of the fish and chips that I ordered, the batter on the fish was really crispy and not soggy at all like many of the other fish and chip shops I've tried in Plymouth. The chips were really lovely too, nice and golden and fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The fish was really chunky too, really nice big bits of white fish and it was clear that they hadn't tried to get 2 out of 1 by filleting it thinley. And tasted like it was freshly caught and fried in good oil. Service was great and very polite and smiley, I'm definitely going to the return again or get delivery from here.
