Moved to the area recently and tried Grasswell Chippy and I won't go anywhere else now. The portions are great, reasonable prices and the staff are so friendly.

I'm new to the area, so I gave this chippy a go. And I'm so glad that I did! Absolutely outstanding for food, value, and taste! Their was a bit of a que when I went in, but I can see why. The owners are very friendly and polite. Just order when you walk in and then wait. Portion sizes were huge! And so tasty. This is definitely my new chippy!

Best chippy in the UK. I've used this chippy throughout my life & it has never disappointed. Food is amazing & the amount you get for your money is amazing. There was so much it wouldn't all fit on my plate. & I was stuffed. Left half for later. Staff are lovely & friendly.

Freshly made, huge fish with just the right amount of batter. Delicious, and the chips and curry sauce too. Even for a fussy eater like me. Brilliant value for money too. Best I've had in 7 years living in the North East. A hidden gem

When here while visiting my 91 year old mother in Houghton le Spring. She gets a cod and chips here every other Wednesday so we stuck with tradition and are really glad we did. Crisp chips and very tasty fish. Lovely.
