The Proper Fish & Chips Co.

My family and I, who don’t eat meat, thought we’d give this place a try. Big mistake. I asked to swap the meat sausage in a kids’ meal for a veggie sausage. Initially, they said, “Sure, no problem!” Then, moments later, they changed their tune to “Actually, no, we can’t do that.” Seriously? When I pointed out how most decent restaurants have no issue with such substitutions, they grudgingly agreed but insisted I pay an extra 50p (and the meal already cost £5.25) of course, I paid because, what choice did I have? The kicker? The veggie sausage was awful. The regular sausage costs £1.50, the veggie one costs £1.95—a 45p difference. Yet, they charged me an extra 50p. Brilliant math skills, right? So, I was essentially ripped off for 50p more for a single, half-sized sausage. Fantastic. Even in London, where they practically charge you to breathe, they don’t screw you over like this. So, thanks for the dreadful service and overpriced, lousy veggie sausage!
