Great fish n chips. Eric's was a 2 hour wait (on the app). Did a search and found these guys. 2 mile drive from Deepdale campsite and they served my delicious cod and chips straight away, and under a tenner! DEEPDALE CAMPERS - this is your go to for an excellent fish supper.

Closes at 8.30pm. Ordered at 7.50. All the guys did an excellent job keeping the orders going. 15 in front of me, 8 more followed. A pity they couldn't cater for all that arrived, but it's the time taken to complete the orders, that's why some got turned away. Working well beyond 8.30 to get the orders done. Best fish and chips we've had in years. Keep up the good work, and we will definitely see you next year!

Given the recent reviews, and as seasoned chippy goers, we were apprehensive but the fish and chips are fantastic! We had two mini cod and chips - perfect size for a normal appetite and only £5.70. Everything was cooked fresh, batter was thin and crispy, and service was attentive…More reviews
Given the recent reviews, and as seasoned chippy goers, we were apprehensive but the fish and chips are fantastic! We had two mini cod and chips - perfect size for a normal appetite and only £5.70. Everything was cooked fresh, batter was thin and crispy, and service was attentive. We shared a pot of curry sauce between two (both of us dipped EVERY chip, to give you an idea of size). Only thing that let it down was the location - perfect if you’re picking up by car, but we walked and sat outside. A little strange to be sat on a garage forecourt eating your chips!

Lovely variety of tasty food on the way back from the seaside. Recommend getting mac and cheese bites on the side with your meal. Whitebait and halloumi was wonderful!

Our fish and chips were great. Fish was fresh and cooked very well, the chips were also very good. It's popular with locals and the large waiting area was busy and friendly. We had to wait about 15 to 20 minutes, they seem to cook every order from scratch, so the food was great. The home made Tartar sauce was excellent, i recommend trying that.

Great selection of kid meals. Plenty of food and large enough for big hungry boys up to 10 or 11 years old.

Amazing fish and chips! We are staying in Burnham Market and decided to have a chippy tea - we chose the Mermaid Chip Shop as it was closest to the accommodation. Definitely among the best fish and chips I have had in a while; the curry sauce was very good too. Food was cooked to order, but the service was quick and efficient. Can't fault this place - highly recommended.

Really good food, friendly staff and not too expensive. Haven't had a bad experience yet and they've been my go to fish and chips for years now. Highly recommended if you're passing by.

It was almost two years ago that I came here on a holiday nearby - and was delighted to find battered halloumi on the menu. The generous portions were beautifully cooked. I’m returning soon and will be back!

We really enjoy here, and go once a week (at least!🤫🤭) friendly staff.. food served lovely and hot n then in a paper bag than plastic so food doesn't sweat .. chips not really greasy as some places it's swimming in it -not here! .. guaranteed youl return! .. Friday's, of course, being 'fish and chip' day , can be a bit of a wait, but the staff do their best.. now have card payment available from £5 which is pretty handy if like myself , and not carrying cash all the time... Recommend scampi!! .. it's proper wholetail scampi, super filling n absolutely deeelish!! .. There is some parking outside and nearby roads that can be parked on if busy .. for on nice sunny days there is a couple of picnic benches out the front although the park is on walking distance if having a stroll and want to eat outside ... Enjoy!!
