There is a small amount of seating right outside the shop but if full there is plenty of benches to sit on - with sea views! The chips are lovely from here and they also do a wide range of items to go with them including fish, chicken etc. They also sell drinks. Sadly as this fish and chip shop is in very much a tourist area the prices are a bit expensive which I think is a shame for the locals. However the portions are quite large. It does get very busy during the summer season but it is well worth the wait. Wooden forks are provided but sachets of sauce is extra!

Our party paid £6.70 for excellent cod and chips with a cup of tea, when most diners had the over 60s version at £3.95. So popular was the over 60s menu that the restaurant were turning families away at peak tourist time. When the fish and chips are so good, why bother with a menu range from gammon steak to lobster tails? I guess the drive is the evening takeaway, catering for the local Braunton market, ut if I were South Sixteen I would focus on fewer, better dishes. Would I go back - yes. The fishcakes were excellent, and the lobster tails sounded good. Would I get in? Probably not, with those low prices for over 60s. Is that even legal in this anti-ageist world?

Memories that remain fondly carved in stone. Some memories are visiting the village of Braunton to stay with my paternal grandparents. Sea, sun, fishing, fascination, diversity; anything and everything was different to life in the London suburbs. As a special treat, we were occasionally treated to a 'fish supper', which we would collect from the then fish shop in South Street. Since then, other things have happened locally. A rival establishment opened up and managed to acquire all sorts of awards. http://www.qype.co.uk/place/193870-Squires-Fish-Restaurant-Braunton It impressed to begin with over the years, but my impression and that of the locals to this 'Fawlty Towers' of fish restaurants gradually went downhill, following the quality of food and the frenetic service. South Street continues to be the home of real fish and chips! I have nothing to add to the review by Lanky of Leicester. I think he hits the nail on the head. Seriously worth visiting.

It's been a little while but the fish here although was freshly cooked wasn't coordinated with our order of chips. The fish they had cooked and ready and sitting on the top wrapped up for a few minutes waiting for the chips because by the time the fish was cooked, there were no cooked chips left in the tray to serve up. Our fish waited for the chips, when the chips finally came we were handed them pretty quick but by the time we got them home the fish was disappointingly a little cold. Aside from that, it tasted good however the fish I had was a little boney. Overall this place is set up for speed as much as possible but needs a little more coordination on serving to maximise the quality of the meal.

They have the usual menu you find in all chip shops - fish, sausages, fiscakes etc and they also have childrens meals that include a drink. They also have a slush puppy machine which is always a great hit with the kids during the summer! Most of the times I have had food from here it has been really delicious although on a few occasions I have found the food to be a bit too greasy. The portions are always very generous. Prices are reasonable - about the same as all nearby fish and chip shops. It does get very busy sometimes so be warned you may have to wait!
