Most Disliked
Some guests have pointed out that during the busiest times, service can become a bit slow, impacting the overall experience. A few customers noted receiving overcooked items on occasion, but this appears to be rare. While most enjoy the variety on the menu, some would appreciate an even wider selection of sides. A couple of patrons felt that portion sizes could vary, which might leave some diners wanting just a bit more. Furthermore, although the place is clean, a disposable container for some items may not be what everyone prefers, as it can detract from the dine-in experience for those who love a traditional presentation.

Traditional fish and chips. Crispy batter with lots of Crispy bits on top the fish. Mrs got the spicy fish which was very nice, not too spicy just a little heat. Chips were proper chippy chips. Best of all it wasn't at all greasey. Had both spicy and normal curry sauce, both are very good.

Mother Hubbard’s doesn’t skimp where it counts. Their haddock is beautifully flaky and tender, with just the right amount of bite — cooked to a luscious, ivory white in the center and encased in a crisp, golden batter. That batter is the real hero: light and crisp, never soggy or cloying, with a satisfying crunch that gives way to delicate fish within. Favourite place to eat forever ♥️
