Most Disliked
One common hiccup at The Big Fish is their cash-only payment policy, which can be inconvenient for those used to card payments. Some diners have expressed hope for greater accessibility to card transactions, noting that it can cause confusion during busier times. Certain patrons have pointed out that the wait times can stretch a bit longer during peak hours, especially if placing large orders.
A few have mentioned the desire for a more extensive vegetarian menu, suggesting a few more options for those who prefer not to eat meat. Despite these concerns, most reviews reflect a strong overall satisfaction with the food quality and service.

Fish and chips are excellent - cooked fresh whilst you wait - but well worth the 5 minute wait! The donner kebabs are excellent too. And the chicken kebab is to die for! Thew staff are very friendly and courtious.

A comforting fish and chippy! Been here twice now as a visitor to Longton. Nice big open area as you walk in to stand or sit and choose. Polite staff who are happy to answer questions and accommodate requirements where they can that you might have. Good selection of food from fish and chips, pie and chips, to pizza or kebab, even burgers. Most are cooked to your order and you can even phone through an order first and then collect. Cash only payment though so remember that!
