This review is not a reflection on the staff, as the ones we know well are helpful and kind. The food we find to be consistently good to great And so we travel ten miles each way sometimes as a treat. The issue is when the restaurant is open we eat there, when it's not we use the takeaway, usualy I'm travelling just to pick up the food after work. The issue is, it has become extremely noticeable after years as a customer that the regular fish size has gone down, After multipe orders we where thinking if this is regular small must be non existent. so on our previous visit and again today we decided to have two large fish to make up for it at a cost of 5 extra over 2x regular fish. So when you open the box to find out that the fish is the same size as the regular fish (infact we've had larger regular fish here) not only is the fish size inconsistent, but you feel like you are being taken for a fool as it has become extremely obvious now that you get charged for a large but you do not get anything extra for your money. I know places are having to tigten up to make profit and i respect that.. BUT It has become so obvious in the takeaway it's borderline insulting that whoever made the decision to see how far they can push it to sell the same size fish as a bigger potion and charge you as such and think noone will notice is going to lose long term customers like ourselves, it must also be embarrassing for the staff serving to pretend not to notice. I'm actually a bit sad to leave the review but after multiple chances incase of a one off it has now happened multiple times. In response to the owners reply mistakes can be made. so i have no problem in continuing to be a customer, in future i will order regular and large fish to see if it continues to happen. If it doesn't my review would be unjust and i shall remove it, if it does not i can forward pictures to you or leave them here showing they are exactly the same regardless of size ordered. I hope that is a fair.

Visiting family for a few days and we were recommended it by my uncle who said Oliver's had won an award for their fish and chips. I can see why, they were delicious. We all enjoyed them, price was good. We took a menu to put in the air bnb we were staying in. When we next head up north, we will definitely visit there again.
