Towne Friar The

I had been looking forward to trying Towne Friar... been living in Acton for 4 years now and finally got the chance to try it tonight and was disappointed. I've had a lot of fish and chips and this was the worst I've ever had. The batter was way to thick and doughy, my wife's piece wasn't even cooked throughout she had to throw it out. The piece of haddock was small. The fries were so-so. My son had chicken fingers which were the best thing that came out. I also had an order of deep fried pickles which were good but sad that the only 2 things that came out half decent were pre frozen pieces. They need to step up their game big time with the fish, fish portions and most importantly batter and frying.

Had the haddock and chips. The fish was excellent! Reasonably priced. Will definitely go back.

Great place to get fish & chips. You'll probably want to take it home though. The place is dingy and the tables have always been sticky.
