Reviews Overview

Most Liked

Customers rave about the massive portions, especially the cod, which is fried to golden perfection. The loaded tikka chips are a standout, drawing numerous repeat visitors who can't get enough of this unique twist on a classic dish. Others tout the spiced options from the Indian selection, which add a delightful variety to the menu. Families love the kids' meals, often seen as fantastic value, with many parents expressing satisfaction with the healthy portion sizes. The friendly, laid-back service creates a welcoming atmosphere, making this place feel like a second home for many loyal patrons.

Most Disliked

Some diners have noted that the batter can be a tad oily, but this is often brushed aside for the excellent overall taste. A few customers mentioned that during peak times, such as Friday evenings, the wait can become longer than desired. While most love the casual dining atmosphere, some may prefer a more formal dining experience. Additionally, those seeking lighter options might find the menu heavy on fried foods, leading them to opt for just the fish and a side. Overall, these dislikes are minor compared to the glowing feedback about the flavor and portions.

Probably used Dave’s about 5 times in as many years ( when we are camping locally) It’s been very consistent in my experience. Big portions of Cod and pretty good. Batter is a little bit oily but tastes fresh ( we take it back to the campsite, and like most fish and chips, it’s better to eat asap!) Service always seems efficient. I would recommend and will go back next camping trip, when I’ve had enough of cooking for the family!

Been going here for years, absolutely unreal food with an amazing service! You can really tell there is a passion for perfection at Daves. Usually go for cheesy chips with garlic sauce but have been getting the pizzas which are the best in the whole of consett area, nice base and generous toppings, with the added extra of not being greasy and the toppings dont fall off. Staff will always go the extra mile to make sure your food is exactly how you like it. I also NEVER get fish and chips but seeing the fish at Daves I got myself one and finished the full thing, batter and all, i normally hate other fish shop batter. The new food on the menu is unreal! Loaded fries i has yesterday were the best I have ever had. And the new donuts are to die for! From cholestrol, because I am going for more!

Never given a 5 star review before (I am British after all) but I bought done fish and chips here as I was staying nearby and they were the best I have had since 2 years ago in Whitby. Very crisp batter on fresh fish and perfectly cooked chips with mushy peas. Superb! Oh yes, very friendly service with a smile too.
