Unless it’s for a big group, 15 people or more, we don’t take restaurant reservations. Don’t panic though, there won’t be a long wait if our restaurant is full.

Yes, it does, but our chips are gluten-free as they are prepared and cooked away from all gluten sources.

Well, we cook everything in beef dripping, so the choices are a cheese and onion pasty, mushy peas, or a gherkin/pickled onion.

We couldn’t help but notice that our pollock sometimes fries in the shape of a two fingered salute. If you’re lucky you may find that your meal says #pollockstoputin too.
Pollock (caught in Alaska and Europe) and chips are £7.45 on our takeaway.
In a world where all we can do is show our support and that we care. And in a world where Russia owns half of Europe’s white fishing grounds (including cod and haddock) what can we do?
We can say “pollocks to Putin”. VC Jones are stocking pollock (caught in Alaska and Europe) as an ethical alternative. So, if you want to support Ukraine (and your local chippy, because cod has gone up 35% in price due to sanctions ) join us and say #pollockstoputin

As you may already be aware, our Pay It Forward service supports the guests of The Haven Project, a charity helping the homeless in our community that operates out of St John's Methodist Church on Argyle Road.
The Project is trying to raise awareness and much-needed funds to help them continue supporting people in need in our community and is hosting a Spring Fayre on 9th April.
Ok, It’s quite windy out there (that’s an understatement) and our drivers have already dodged tiles ripped off roofs, a piece of guttering and a flying TV aerial.
So, we’ve decided to close our counter and restaurant at 4.00 and there will be no further deliveries today.
We're pleased to announce that our Pay It Forward is now being used to support homeless members of our community who visit The Haven Project (run by Churches Together In Whitstable) The Haven Project operates from St John's Methodist Church, running drop-in sessions on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. If you would like to donate to our pay it forward, feel free to add an extra amount to your counter, restaurant, or delivery order.

One of the best things about our shop is the customers we’ve been able to build relationships with over the last 60 years.
And we’re looking forward to reopening our restaurant. So, we have decorators in giving it a good spruce up for its 60th birthday.
Which means:
We will be closed from 10th January 2022 - 31st January 2022.
The whole family are looking forward to celebrating our 60th birthday year with you all! ... See MoreSee Less
