Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Customers consistently applaud the quality of food at Lemon Plaice, especially the fresh fish, which is cooked to perfection. The friendly and accommodating staff enhance the dining experience, making diners feel welcome. Many rave about the generous portion sizes, ensuring you leave satisfied.
The unique addition of Irish curry sauce has also been a hit among many patrons, providing a flavorful twist that elevates the classic fish and chips experience. The cozy atmosphere and lack of pretentiousness invite repeat visits, making it a delightful local favorite.
Most Disliked
The small size of the restaurant often leads to crowded conditions, especially during peak dining hours. Customers recommend arriving early to avoid long wait times or a full house. Some have mentioned that the seating is limited, with only a few tables available, which could mean waiting for a table.
Additionally, while the takeaway service is convenient, a few patrons wish for a larger dining space to accommodate more guests during busy evenings. This can sometimes lead to a less relaxed experience compared to larger establishments.

First time eating here as we are new to the area. The food was delicious! So fresh and not greasy. Also tried Irish curry sauce for the first time and it was amazing. Can’t wait to come back.

Excellent restaurant with three tables of two, four and six persons. Very cosy, warm and good atmosphere. Two independent doors for restaurant and take away. 10/10 in quality of fish, service and menu where there are infinite sizes you can choose for fish. Incredible butter, chips were amazing and sauces I have to say it was a plus. I am sure we will be back.

Just superb! Friendly staff and nice atmosphere waiting in line. The fish and chips were outstanding. Fish - generous, tasty with a beautiful crispy batter! The chips - again, generous and quite simply the perfect chip-shop chips!
