Alfonso's - Scottish Borders

Absolutely fabulous staff extremely efficient massive range of choice on offer and looked very nice. The fish and chips was very well cooked and tasty

Don't bother. We both had fish and chips tonight. Horrible soggy chips and a very small piece of fish for £20. What a waste of money.

Make sure you have what you asked for before you leave. Staff either had their ears painted on or just didn't care. Not even with an Edinburgh accent would a chicken breast supper sound like chicken steaks! We were already part way up the road home when we stopped to eat and discovered we had the wrong thing. Won't be visiting there again!

No complaints on the standard of food. Good fish n chips. The problem with this place is the wait. Every time I have been here, there is always a lengthy wait for either fish or chips.

My wife and I have been going to Alfonso's once or twice a month for the last couple of years. The fish has always been perfectly cooked and the chips have always been perfect too. Until last night that is. Alfonso's son didn't appear to be around last night. It was someone different frying last night. When we arrived at 16.50 they had ran out of chips and were cooking more. I've never known them to run out this early in the day. We ordered our usual 2x fish suppers. The fish was overcooked and greasy and the chips were undercooked, hard and greasy. We won't be there again unless the usual fryer is cooking.
