    5 ⭐️ I’ve been to some good chippys and majority around the Wirral are bad ones! All I can say is Helen’s Chippy is the Mecca of all Chip Shops at the moment in my opinion - freshly cooked chips, Fish is cooked nicely, but the Salt n Pepper Chips well they were like out there on planet Mars THEY WERE were amazing!! Me the wife and our little furry friend thoroughly enjoyed it (who had a couple of nice sausages bye) and we got some free chips thrown in as well, nice touch Helen thank you 😊 go figure 🥳 👍🏼

    Fish and chips was excellent with really generous portions. Staff were super friendly. On a par with Tsang's, which was at the same location many years ago (about 1985 !)

    Salt and pepper chicken wings were fantastic from there yesterday, eaten as soon as I got home. Golden and crispy, beats kfc any day for me! I also like their crispy chilli chicken, the sauce is so nice, wish they did a vegetarian version for my partner. My daughter lives their salt and pepper chips, a must have everytime she comes home for a visit. Our favourite chippy by far on the Wirral.

    Want disgusting food? This is the place for you. Salt and pepper chips was literally a portion of chips with some chunks of raw white onion thrown on. Ribs the meat had to be ripped off the bone. Salt n pepper chicken wings, well was more like saliva an pepper, slimey and jelly like. Duck looked like it had been in a blender. Just avoid!

    Ordered fish chips and a small chicken fried rice and a carton of curry, Waited 30 minutes whilst they delt with telephone orders, etc. Eventually served, got home, curry turned out to be peas. Chips re cooked at least 3 times

    Great food in massive portions, and when they're not busy, everything works fine. When it is busy, there's chaos, with long waits and incorrect orders. A wait of an hour is not unknown, so if you want to go there, timing is everything!

    A great traditional Chinese/chip shop, with decent prices & good food. It's cash only, so come prepared (but there's a chargeable cash machine directly over the road as a last resort). They also don't deliver and they're not on the usual Just Eat etc, but I guess this is what helps them to keep their prices low (as their standard large meat dish - e.g. chicken in black bean - is just over a fiver, as opposed to being about £7 in some of the 'online' Chinese takeaways). The staff are friendly & polite, the portion sizes are huge (but they also have a lot of items that you can have a 'small' as well as a 'large') and the quality is great. They have a good selection of dishes & you even get free salt & pepper chips once you spend a certain amount! We've tried omlettes, ribs, sui mai, chips, black bean, curry, & burgers so far and all we're lovely. Next time we'll try some different dishes but I'm sure they'll be as enjoyable! Keep up the good work Helens!

    Phone ordered a lot of food, £55 worth, feeding a lot of people. It was a bit busy so waited 5 - 10 minutes in the shop. Order was spot on, not a thing missed. Won ton Noodle soup very nice, really good noodles in them which did not seem the normal instant noodles you get in soup. Mixed starter, the grown up kids were very appreciative. Daughter who never eats spicey is obsessed with their salt and pepper chips. Really liked the kung po , nice kick and very hot chillies. Chop suey very very nice , subtle and not as over salted as you can get in some places. The spring rolls you get if you order over £30 are a surprise as they are a mix of types , some vegetable some duck, the duck had a pleasant slightly spicey kick. Really liked the special chow mien. Now have an issue that we now know of two Chinese takeaways close to home we really like.

    We all like to go out for fish and chips, but we also want the reassurance that the place is clean. The food here was perfect and abundant. It's a small shop but the atmosphere is one of trust and joy with quick service. Thank you.

    i can see why this place is so busy & why it has such roaring reviews! i went in & it had tons of people waiting for big orders, but the prices are good & cheap (cash only, btw!) so I can see why. The staff did my order correctly & quick, they were also polite, I forgot my change and the cashier literally rushed out to give it to me haha! food is AWESOME! def will have to come back again! i got small chips, small chicken fried rice and curry just for like £5.40! and if these are small im worried about how big large is lol cuz the portions were def generous as people say btw these were like 500g or more each lol!

    Went here for the first time last night and I can say it won't be my last. Excellent service, food and portions

  • 1/5 Loz K. 9 months ago on Google
    Gave 1 as can’t give a 0…Telephone ordered.. was told 15mins waited a further 20mins in shop… wrapped the food without asking if wanted salt an vinegar so had to unwrap… on opening food to eat chips looked and tasted like warm ups from a few days ago Vile… the fish was bland and tasteless the bit we tasted …. The curry sauce was very runny and the peas were swimming in water and tasted like water!!! Not edible!! Only went as the reviews said was good!!! Would never go again and don’t go by good reviews as we were extremely disappointed as the food was binned… the customers in there complaining of the timings… not a good place at all.

    Excellent !! Great traditional Chinese chippy , great food at reasonable cost . The fish is especially good .

  • 5/5 Daniel H. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent takeaway and best price around too! The only thing I could nit pick at is some times the salt and pepper dishes could do with having a little more flavour and twang to it 😅

  • 1/5 Feisty 1 year ago on Google
    Total waste of money. The chips were really nice i have to say but also got a free portion of salt and pepper chips (we would have ordered something other than chips if we'd known....overload of chips haha). The Chinese meals however were thrown. We know people that love this chippy so maybe it was a one off but after reading some reviews that doesn't seem to be the case. The sauces in them were all gloopy, glue like...thick, lacked in colour and most importantly flavour....the rice was nice though, just didn't eat it as no sauce. So....to summarise...we ended up having a great chip butty but that was an expensive portion of chips !!

  • 5/5 Chris M. 1 year ago on Google
    Incredible chippy! Best chips in town, the Chinese meals are delicious, and the portions are bigger than any other chippy around! Definitely the best chip shop ever.

    Ocean wave is easily the best chip shop by a million miles. It's simply no contest.

  • 2/5 Gareth W. 1 year ago on Google
    Incredibly poor. There was more batter than actual fish and the chips, although plentiful didn't taste great. Glad this isn't my local takeaway.

  • 4/5 Jacki J. 2 years ago on Google
    Went here tonight for first time after a lot of recommendations. Ordered via phone order read back and price verified. Hubby collected and everything was piping hot and delish. Just a slight problem......ordered beef chow mein yup bit dry but that's personal preference. Singapore fried rice arrived as Singapore vermicelli. And my 3 meat vermicelli arrived as 3 meat noodles with chilli pieces?? BUT we got a portion of your yummy crispy spicey chips for free and everything was tasty. We will just check food before we get home next time xxx
