The Village Chippy - St. Helens

Well worth a visit if you like fish and chips. Order your fish as you walk through the door. They don't sell anything but good cod.

I usually enjoy eating at this fish and chip shop, but on this occasion I was disappointed. We arrived at 8:13 PM and found the doors locked, even though it was advertised online that they were open until 8:30 PM and on TripAdvisor until 9:00 PM. It was a wasted trip.

We enjoyed a delicious meal at this restaurant. I had the lightly battered fish with chips, peas, and tartare sauce, while my wife had scampi with chips and tartare sauce. Our two children had kids meals, one with fish bites and the other with sausage. Everything was cooked perfectly. We will definitely be returning in the future!

Swimming in oil, I can say with 100% conviction this is the worse chip shop experience I have had. The oil sloshing around the try was awful, the omelette burned and full of oil. The fish and chips the same. Truly awful.

The Village Chippy has replaced their front of shop staff. Previously miserable, they are now happy, smiling, and courteous with an excellent attitude. It is a pleasure to visit this establishment, and the top-quality food makes it a clear winner in Rainford and the surrounding areas.
