Great local chippy in the Badcox area. Many locals still think of it as The Ancient Mariner fish &…read morechip shop (the Ancient Mariner having been there for thirty years). These days is a brightly lit, clean and generically decorated chippy run by a Chinese family, so it has the added benefit of an extensive Chinese take-away menu as well. Their chips are great - fresh, fluffy and properly cooked. The portions are good-sized, and the fish is always fresh. A portion of chips and curry sauce with a pea fritter along with battered jumbo sausage and chips will come to under a tenner and be worth it! (Not that I'm saying that's our regular order junk food of choice..but..have been known to indulge!) On the Chinese side of things, their Prawn Curry is highly reccomended. It might lack the finesse and extra delicacy of a fancy restaurant curry but for a take-out it's really tasty and hits the spot. Good value, good grub, friendly service.

I saw a few people get the cod -- wish I'd tried that instead, even though the haddock was so good!! I really liked the mushy peas here; very rich!

They were even helpful enough to give us a whole thing of vinegar since it was complicated to know who wanted salt and vinegar, just salt, just vinegar and so on! While we don't visit Taunton very often, there's a reason this place has a line out of the door on Tuesday lunchtimes! Very friendly, attentive, and many of our family having the fish especially said it was the best fish, they've ever had from a fish and chip shop! Very impressive report from some highly critical members who know their fish and chip shops well. Definitely recommended if you are in the area!

You order the food at the counter after you walk in and then they bring it to your table when it is ready. So, service was immediate at the counter, and then the food came out about 10-12 min later. The atmosphere is very casual, no neckties and jackets required here. I found this place online and my husband was not disappointed. I did not try the fried Mars bar, but I imagine it would have been good.
