Harry Ramsden's Opiniones 

What’s gone wrong ! Harry Ramsdens use to be great but they have gone down hill rapidly, on last two visits to the Trafford Centre Manchester they had no Haddock this on both Friday lunch times. anyway felt like fish do ordered the Cod - soggy batter & tasteless, chips barely warm peas watery and a strange looking bread roll slightly bigger than a crouton that tasted stale and they have the neck to charge £12.00
I won’t be going a third time.

The wife and I stopped for fish and chips at Harry Ramsdens at J21 M1 on Friday Jan 31st.

Food not too bad, with the fish nice and hot and the chips borderline ok on the good side of warm.

We did however have to wait a couple of minutes to be served even though there was nobody else in the queue.?

The major downside was after getting through some of the food I found a long brown hair in between the chips and following that the rest had to be discarded.

Such a shame that a hair was found, spoiling the occasion.

If the 2 very young dark haired girls looking after the place were a little more conscientious then this could have averted.

Just had breakfast bap at oxford services it was rubbish. That must have been the cheapest bread roll known to man two pieces of bacon slapped on top a black coffee £6.42. What a waste of money.

Excellent service very polite staff served by Nathan Cheshire Oaks

We had a very disappointing meal at Eastbourne the service was very slow almost an hr to get meal and the restaurant was not even half full. The cod was a regular fish and chip meal the fish I'm not sure was cod it was very thin not flaky at all when I asked waitress about it she informed me that small ,regular, and large are done bye weight. So small and regular you get the tail end no meat and large you get the meaty end this seems to me you get different quality food if you pay more surely not right I have complained to customer services but no reply as yet .

I orderd for delivery last night at 8 15pm and said would deliver around 8 45 PM paid by debit card never got my order tried to chat online through just eat took ages they said phone the restaurant but I could only find just eats number in london will never buy again disgusting service

Harry Ramsdens HALIFAX is TERRIBLE
Home Delivery
1 - boxes were half size of standard fish & chip shops
2 - Fish were the same length as a pencil serious no kidding.
Batter was chewy and reheated.
3 - Chips are NOT chip shop chips. Even oven chips would be better than the pre-frozen, dried out processed mash they assaulted my taste buds with.
4 - Cost. At £10 you get half the meal for 50% more cost
Tried to complain to shop but the phone continually engaged.
Thrown in the bin.
We will NEVER go near Harry Ramsdens again.

My recommendation:
AVOID AVOID AVOID

Visited the Trafford Centre site on Wednesday 18/12/19, really disappointed with the service & standard of the food, spent £20 on two portions of fish and chips with Curry, one large & one regular portion ( would argue that the meal sizes should be described as medium and small, took food over to the seating area and noticed the chips were freezing cold, took them back & was given a fresh set of meals, took them back to the seating area sat down and again the chips were freezing, by this time I just wanted a refund, took them back over to the counter and was told they would make a fresh set of meals, lady that served us was apologetic but then handed over two Regular (small) portions at which point I had enough and just took them back over to eat.
Sent an email to them when I got back & received a standard reply that they would be in touch ASAP - still waiting.
Such a shame that a great brand has let them selves down.

Still haven't had any contact from HR

Visited Harry Ramsdens Bournemouth on a very cold day in November. It was like eating in a fridge! No heating on whatsoever. Have eaten their many times in the past, but standards have slipped dramatically. Dirty and torn seating. The seniors meal fish portions have reduced greatly also the portions of bread and butter pudding have reduced in size. Very disappointed. The service by Carlos our waiter was as good as ever, but we feel sorry for the staff who have to work in the cold all day. What is happening to this restaurant? It used to be a joy to eat there! Please get it sorted or you will lose many loyal customers from this prime location.

We went to Bournemouth on a quiet week day with our 15month daughter. On a cold day we wanted a hot lunch.... walking into HR was therefore our first mistake.
The chips were cold when they came out. When we commented we were given “that can’t be so” but they still brought out a portion more each. They were luke warm. I’m not one for confrontation so we ate our meals. But it was not enjoyable as the whole thing was verging on being cold.
We did get £10 off our order at the end to go towards compensation; but I’d have rather paid full price and enjoyed my meal.
The place wasn’t busy as it was a week day in November, but they still insisted on sitting us next to another filled table and when they left full that table again. There was no customer satisfaction and it put a dampener on our family day out.
I will never go into a Harry R again due to this experience.

Delivery food good unfortunatley was a bit cold on 2.2 miles away ?

After spending a lovely day at our beach hut in Bournemouth, we thought we’d end the day with some fish and chips. With my father being allergic to gluten, we checked the website and saw that they could provide him with chips.

After a 20 minute wait for take out, was told that there was nothing they could provide him with as the oil they use for chips would also be used for battered produce which he is unable to eat.

Being one of the biggest fish n chip chains in the UK, I think this is absolutely disgusting that you don’t cater for everyone.

Not only that, but everyone else’s meal was extremely poor, over priced and were such small portions!!!! Living here for 30 years, I can say that this is the most disappointing fish n chips I’ve ever had and definitely won’t be returning or recommending!

Today at Eastbourne ended the day with two take away cod and chips with mushy peas.
Ruined the day!
What a rip off! £17.50
Chips cold
Small pot of mushy peas £1.25 a rip off
‘Large’ cod should have been medium
Sauce 30p per satchet
Our advice, give Harry Ramsden a wide berth !

Visited Harry Ramsden's in Worthing as had a beach trip on a hot BH August with my family, 5 of us. Now there are 4 or so cafeteria type fish n chips shops just round the corner, cheaper, but much busier and setting not quite as good (think Sun readers). Prob would not have got seats, or iced water, dunno about quality of food, but would have cost between £25 - £37 (I checked).

Bought 4 meals, 2 Haddock, 2 Cod, changed peas to beans, got a lemon 🍋 quarter, tartare sauce and unlimited fat chips for £10.99 each. Picked up plenty of serviettes for meal (& later 😉), asked for tap water and got 2 jugs served with ice and lemon slice.

Food was great, I tried both fish but Haddock was recommended and justified. Crispy, nourishing, hit the mark. Chips were brilliant and we each refilled these.

Salt and pepper shakers, Sarsons Vinegar, Heinz Ketchup and Hellmans Mayo bottles were placed on our table for our use. Cutlery, plates n glasses were all clean (I've worked as a Kitchen Porter previously, so was observing ☺)

Also worth noting, one of my flock refuses to eat fish, so she 'shared' our chips (and lemon), including the refill. The restaurant had no issue with this, nor did they charge the potential £2.50 for her chips that they could have. We didn't take the mick by asking for a spare plate.

Waitresses were friendly and attentive, bathroom nearby, same level and clean enough (6/10)

Wasn't too busy inside, no queue at all, prob cos of the chav shops, shop was airy and AC was on - needed this to counter the 33°C outside! Food was served promptly, refills took a couple of mins, in hindsight we coulda ordered them a little in advance.

I paid £43.96 - perfect meal towards the end of a perfect day. Will def. go back again. In case HR are reading, I did not tip as had already been rinsed by Worthing beach pier etc, not a reflection on service or staff.

Never read a review of Harry R's before, amazed at the ones listed, could not be further from the truth in my case. One of the few positive reviews, written in CAPS, seems fake, which is annoying, I can assure mine is definitely not. Also don't understand how a car parking fee means HR get a 1 star 🌟 rating, moreso when the food and drinks are reported as great! Still got my receipt if anyone doubts.

We had Large Haddock and Chips with Mushy Peas at the Swanage Branch in July this year.

A large pot of Yorkshire Tea, but only 2 Sugars each!

The meal arrived the fish was not very big there was no Bread and Butter as advertised, the chips were very well done, I think they were last night's reheats.

I also think that the fat was too hot as the fish tasted slightly burnt.

I have lost the receipt but I think it was around the £30 mark.

Very Disappointing for Harry Ramsdens.

Bournemouth ... ... have to say worse fish and chips and not cheap at £44 for 3 of us.
.. thought bearing the Harry Ramsden name would be better. All batter and no fish. Toilets were dirty and my husband said that the men's toilets were filthy. Needless to say we will not be going back.

The view was good on the plus side as was the waiter.

Stopped at Hopwood services for breakfast. Big mistake!!!? My God it was awful. Anaemic fatty bacon, a sausage that may have had some meat in it somewhere, and hash browns, still hard in the middle. The baked beans were an oasis of taste amidst this riot of bland fatty cheap tatt. All for a staggering seven pounds. Looking at the other reviews here it is clear Mr Ramsdens company does not give a toss about it reputation for quality. Nothing has changed in months if not years. So, Harry your just another fat cat conglomerate that tells a good tale but sells crap. You won't tuck me up again, and I urge others not to fall for it either.

Most expensive breakfast I’ve ever bought I. A motorway services tastes horrible cold bacon cold black pudding ,then they sting u extra if u want a cup of tea ended up over £12 for a awful breakfast rude Eastern European staff who laugh at u wen u complain

Called for Pie and chips at Harry Ramsdens,Skegness at 6.30 pm today Wednesday 03 July 2019 with my wife.
I had Steak & Kidney pie chips and supposed to be curry sauce but young girl put gravy instead.
My wife had mince pie and chips peas/gravy.
The pies were a disaster very hard pastry and very little filling the portion of chips was EXTREMELY small on both mine and my wifes small foam tray.Not worth the money £3.99 & £4.25 St/Kid.
If you want a decent meal go elsewhere absolute and utter rubbish served here Not at all what it used to be. Stay clear Note,,This is the chip shop on the corner/ front near the zebra crossing and just up from the Embassy Theratre
