Mother Hubbard's Reviews Summary

Portion Size

Pros:

• "However, the portions were ridiculous, I’ve not had a fish this big before."
• "First the generous portion ensures you won't leave hungry!"
• "Nice portion sizes and the barm cakes were lovely and soft."
• "Really nice place and amazing fish and chips, only downside if you purchase just a portion of chips, the portions are extremely small."
• "One of the best fish and chips in Blackpool, a tad bit pricey but totally worth it!"
• "We got the regular fish and chips and the large, as you can see the size of the fish is enormous compared to my hand haha"
• "Delicious fish and chips. Friendly and swift service. The fish was the size of a whale and I couldn't quite manage to finish it all!!"
• "The cost is very reasonable for the amount of food you get, definitely recommend!"

Cons:

• "Worst pie and chips I've ever had, the pie was clearly microwaved which then made it rock hard, also the portion of chips wasn't very much."
• "Was OK but not great, use various Mother Hubbards and this is the worst one. Smaller fish than the others I've been to, no complimentary chips like the others I've used."
• "I was very disappointed. The fish, haddock, apparently they only sell haddock, had a strange taste. The flesh was also hard, not firm, hard."
• "The chips were thick, too thick for my liking. But they were at least hot and, being thick, there were very few scraps in the box."
• "The chips are big and chunky just like Steak Cut ones and everything was cooked fresh to order."
• "But both times the super jumbo was not its just 2 pice of fish put in a large box."
• "The fish and chips were freshly cooked to order therefore nice and hot. The cod was overcooked though which was slightly disappointing."
• "The chips not great either and expected me to pay 50p per sachet of sauce!"

Service Quality

Pros:

• "Lovely food, friendly service! Takes cards!"
• "Great service and fantastic staff. DJ and the Team were really warm and welcoming."
• "Food was really good, wasn’t very busy, was during the week, nice portion of fish with chips, nice and spacious, good for kids, looks nice and clean, service was a little slow but overall very good."
• "Fantastic chippy .. best chips on the sea front. Excellent service staff friendly and helpful."
• "Walking along the front, felt a bit peckish, saw mother Hubbard's and was not disappointed!! The fish and chips were absolutely spot on. Freshly cooked and everything!"
• "Thank you so much to the staff at Mother Hubbards, especially Kevin! The food was amazing, the staff were very polite and the service was brilliant!"
• "Went in today guy who was taking orders was so professional only a young lad he was so helpful and gave us discount on my blue card."
• "This place was absolutely amazing. Very clean and welcoming. Prices are very good to for the quality you receive."

Cons:

• "Staff all looked very young and inexperienced, this probably keeps wages down for the owner no doubt."
• "We ate in and when staff put our order up on the counter they didn't even tell us, and battered sausage came 5 mins after everything else"
• "You can even do take out if you want to eat on the beach, toilets are provided"
• "Ordered super jumbo and chips and a special and chips both with peas. First staff friendly and officiant but the white uniforms need a good hot wash they're very grey."
• "Food on floor and tables that need cleaning whilst staff stand around. Service let's the place down."
• "We were in Blackpool on a few days holiday and went into mother Hubbards restaurant. Staff were nice and friendly and we enjoyed our meal."
• "With only 2 other customers in the shop, it took 25 mins before the folks bothered looking at the order."
• "Worst fish and chip shop I have ever been too young server girl told lad who was frying that she wasn't serving a dried up sausage so he took it off her and dipped back in the oil and told her to use it."
