Malt And Anchor - Cotswold

I come from a seaside town on the east coast and have worked in a fish and chip shop, so I have some knowledge of the industry. I must say that this establishment may not survive in a seaside resort despite the good reviews and accolades. As another reviewer mentioned, there are better places to go. For example, try the Watermoor takeaway for good fish and chips without having to go all the way to Whitby.

We have dined at this restaurant multiple times over the years hoping for improvement, but we will not be returning. I am baffled by the praise that Malt Anchor receives. The fish portions are small and the batter is average at best. Even when opting for a pricier loin option, the quality is still lacking and comes at a steep price. The chips are below par and the overall experience is disappointing. It seems that those leaving positive reviews may not have a strong understanding of what truly good fish and chips should be. I recommend trying establishments like Magpie in Yorkshire, Seafarers in Lytham, Squires in Devon, or many others I have tried over the years for a taste of proper fish and chips. Don't be swayed by the popular opinion, consider other options for a better dining experience.

Wow! I had the best dining experience at this restaurant today. It was my first time here and the food was amazing. My son loved his meal, and so did we! Our server, James, was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable about the menu and the beer selection. I would highly recommend speaking to James if you visit this restaurant. Overall, it was a great experience and we will definitely be returning to try more items on the menu. Thank you!

Visited after seeing that they were in the top 10 in the uk, could not recommend enough, the portions are perfect and you definitely get what you pay for. Had a lovely chat with our waitress Olivia about their craft beers, we loved them so much that we purchased some to give to friends as gifts. Will be back. Good luck in the awards malt and anchor

Went here for a spot of dinner with my mum and it did not disappoint one bit! Fresh fish, crunchy but fluffy chips and lovely selection on drinks on offer. If you are in the area I would definitely recommend this unique little restaurant. Noticed when leaving they also do deliveries and takeaway!!! Definitely coming back!
