Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Customers rave about the outstanding quality of the fish—crispy on the outside, tender on the inside. The haddock is a standout, often described as the best in the area. Portions are generous, catering well to hearty appetites, and the classic chips received high praise for their freshness and fluffiness. The affordability of the dishes makes it a popular choice for lunch, and many appreciate the kid-friendly menu options. The added touch of friendly banter from the staff creates a welcoming environment that keeps diners coming back for more. Overall, the combination of quality, portion size, and price makes Brendan's Chippy a beloved local spot.
Most Disliked
Despite its many accolades, some customers mention the lack of prominent signage at the location, which can be confusing for first-time visitors. A few patrons hope for more delivery options, expressing a desire for services through popular platforms like Just Eat or Morecambe Eats. Occasionally, guests report they wish for greater variety in the menu, specifically additional chicken options, though the existing selections like chicken nuggets and spicy chicken burgers already impress many. While the casual atmosphere is generally appealing, a handful of diners note the seating is limited during peak lunch hours, which might be a challenge for larger groups.

I can't believe I haven't been before. The fish, the chips and the peas were all excellent. And a little banter if you want it. Get yourselves round there. Very good indeed. Feel free to contact for verification

We were out cycling around Williamson Park and then Googled a local chippy. Brendan's came up with a 4.9 rating so we cycled on to there. Upon arrival we found no outside sign but realised they were open and went in. Great prices compared to Blackpool when we live. The Fish was some of the best we'd ever had. Chips were again spot on. Everything fresh and quality with good portions. We'd be there all the time if we lived locally. Staff were lovely. Great hidden gem. Thanks and will return 😊

Ordered from here for the first time and it was delicious fish was crispy and the chips where just what was required proper chips not some frozen fries like others . Don’t let the area it’s located fool you this is well worth a visit .

Brendan’s chippy is literally the best around here, incredible food, just wish he would do deliveries on just eat or Morecambe eats as I’d order regularly every Friday at least being a Catholic, my go to is millstone but Brendan’s blows any chippy out of the water definitely recommend

Parked on Thirlmere Road, and as it's hidden from direct view I wasn't sure at first if it was open, but it was (no sign out to say it was).. Greeted by friendly staff, put order in and I was very surprised by the very reasonable prices. Fish was freshly cooked. The food was very tasty. Definitely recommend...

Small menu, serving everything you'd want from a chippy. Lovely little chippy with 2 very welcoming people in there. Very nice owners, cooking high quality food, done well. Fish was a nice size and great value, not greasy and stayed crispy (we took it home which was a 15 minute drive). Overall I would 100% visit again, definitely the best in Lancaster for sure.
