Some customers report occasional wait times during peak hours, particularly at lunchtime when the place is bustling with both locals and visitors. A few have mentioned that the menu could benefit from more variety, as it largely focuses on classic fish and chips offerings. Interestingly, while the chips often receive praise, some diners suggest that different options for side dishes would enhance the overall dining experience. Additionally, given the popularity of the location, finding a parking spot during busy periods can prove challenging.
