The food is all locally and sustainably sourced, so it's a fairly guilt-free way to eat, calories notwithstanding! Many of the pies are made in house rather than ordered from a supplier, so it is always worth asking if there is something special to try. Portions are big so you probably won't need to go near the large options unless you're sharing. Prices are pretty cheap considering the quality and quantity of the food, and there is ample parking out back, particuarly useful if you choose to sit in the small cafe that adjoins to the takeaway.

They were even helpful enough to give us a whole thing of vinegar since it was complicated to know who wanted salt and vinegar, just salt, just vinegar and so on! While we don't visit Taunton very often, there's a reason this place has a line out of the door on Tuesday lunchtimes! Very friendly, attentive, and many of our family having the fish especially said it was the best fish, they've ever had from a fish and chip shop! Very impressive report from some highly critical members who know their fish and chip shops well. Definitely recommended if you are in the area!

The reality is that this small shop tucked quietly around the corner from Mermaid Quay offers the crispiest of batter and the best cooked chips you will find in this part of town. You may well find yourself queuing up outside the door for service but if that doesn't tell you something, when you get inside the door and see how well kept the food preparation areas are, and then you are greeted by the friendly staff who are clearly rushed off of their feet, you will notice that the prices are very reasonable. This is a locally owned store rather than a large franchise and the quality of the freshly cooked fish really shows the difference. If you're in the bay and want this kind of take away food then you should definitely make the 2 minute journey away from the bay to give them a try.

It's basically their mushy peas, battered and fried. The fish cake was a great size for the price but again just a bit bland for me. The scampi is definitely our new favourite menu item.

I agree! The potatoe fries or chips were perfectly seasoned. The fish portions were very generous. The manager/owner was super friendly and welcoming.

We found street parking for the 9 passenger van, which surprised me. All around a wonderful experience.

We got there a few hours before closing time and couldn't get a table right away - we were told to come back in an hour but we asked if it would still be possible to get their fish & chips.

The chips were tasty and the mushy peas were actually good which I wasn't expecting! I'd travel all the way back to England just for this meal at the Scallop Shell.
