Restaurant details
Reviewed September 3, 2017 via mobile

Have used this chippie for years and it used yo be quite good however not on my last visit. The fish was tasteless and when cut disintegrated into small pieces. The chips were greasy and not nice. Don't think I'll be back.

My Partner and I visited this chippy on Friday 25th August 2017. My partner had steak pie supper and I had a fish supper and they were both cooked to perfection. The young lady who served us was very pleasant and mannerely as was the man who was doing the frying. If you are ever in Lockerbie this Chippy is a must to visit , you certainly won't be disappointed thats for sure. The place was absolutely spotless and had excellent menu to choose from , all very reasonably priced, they were fresh chips opposed to frozen ones . This is a 5 star chippy, we certainly will be returning in the near future.

Just finished eating our fish and chips and we're very disappointed! We ordered 2 large fish suppers to be shared between myself, my husband and our 2 boys. There were loads of chips, but very greasy and there was only one smallish piece of fish in each, the fish wasn't great quality and was also greasy! Not what we are used to!

We were all starving and came off the motorway to get fish and chips here. There were lots of people going in and out which is usually a good sign. Chip portions weren't big and fish batter was not crispy. My wife enjoyed hers but I didn't rate it at all.

I used to rave about the tower, multiple occassions ive been back in denial but the facts are, the fish suppers are minging and the chips are soggy. The place wants to realise its gone down the pan on quality and send its staff on a course. Ill gladly write a great review if the place improves. The amount of people who tried to warn me as well but i thought a fair appraisal was in order (everyone has a night that goes wrong but several is more than coincidence). Personally I cant fault the haggis itself (the flat round ones) but its like a golden truffle served with pigswill.
