The Original John's Plaice - Carlisle

We stopped for a takeaway on the way home one night just before closing. We thought there would be no choice and we'd just have to have what was left but there was loads! The food was lovely and good value. Only two gripes being they put far too much salt on and my pickled onion was a bit soft.

The Original John's Plaice Carlisle Went for a family takeout 880811530 Total rip off, I've seen bigger goldfish and they are £6 , staff were impolite and blonde haired woman in her 30s was arrogant to my girlfriend last time too.I said the fish are small she replied don't eat them then great customer service which kicked into a series of events which the young lad joined in when I asked for my order ,he was atleast 8 feet away and said in not a nice tone she was doing 2 orders she could if told us that.He overheard the small fish complaint and butted I'm impolitey to which I said what's it got to do with you to which he was still not nice at all, review the cctv you people , I couldn't take it and and then said to him who you talking like that too ,to which he played innocent I was annoyed and said he was acting like a little boy which he was, he knew exactly which buttons to press while playing innocent, then the blond woman told us to leave which we all couldn't wait to do........Total rip off ,go buy your gold fish people coz they arnt much bigger. , too expensive ,covert wind up staff who play innocent when confronted Avoid , rip off ,staff I met were unprofessional , bye bye you won't be seeing us again

The staff were fabulous, kind and helpful. My friend was in a wheelchair and they were all brilliant. The food was hot tasty, and good value for money. Table service was spot on!

Really enjoyed my small cod, small chips and mushy peas. Just the right amount for me. I would definitely recommend.

We decided to pop in today for the first time since the Covid situation started. A nice update to the place and a feeling of more space was good. My wife and I both went for the pensioner’s fish and chips special and we were very satisfied with what we got. A decent piece of cod and a small portion of chips, with mushy peas, bread and a cup of tea or coffee for just under £10 each. My son decided to have the cod fish cakes and chips with beans and he was very happy with the plateful he received. The staff were great and we highly recommend you try it.
