Marie's Chippy - Halton

I remember when a large mixture with curry, 3 fritters and batter bits was 13 and a half pence in 1973.....great chippy....hasnt changed.

The staff were welcoming, displaying friendly attitudes and broad smiles despite being busy. Initially, the scene was promising, with a bustling atmosphere inside and out, where numerous vehicles, including tradespeople, were parked with some occupants dining in their cabs. However, my experience declined from that point. Upon ordering, I noticed a lone fish at one end of the range. I could have requested a freshly battered fish, but I chose not to order a new one, considering another customer might end up with it anyway. The interior of the chippy appeared tired. When my meal arrived, the portions and quality were disappointing. The large fish was smaller than expected, the battered burger and sausage were overly greasy, and the chips were thin and soggy. The curry and gravy had an odd, unpleasant taste, although the peas were acceptable. The fish was the biggest letdown due to its size and greasy batter. Overall: Despite high hopes for this highly recommended chip shop, my experience was unsatisfactory, leading me to leave most of my meal uneaten. There 's also a great video on The Chippy Tour youtube channel.

Beautiful fish and chips and mushy peas like nan made excellent and price was really good friendly staff and it was really busy

Great chippy. I made a detour after reading other reviews so thank you all. Having lived in the south now for a long time I have occasional cravings for proper chips, peas and gravy which can only be bought in a chippy in the NW. Marie’s was exactly what I craved and the meat and potato pie was the bonus. Thanks ladies.

Only get to visit once or twice a year now as I live in a different area, but everything you have read is true!
