This place is quite popular and often has quite a big queue, never a problem though as the staff are efficient and service is spot on. Pretty consistent and always fresh food, with all the expected bits and bobs on offer. Only once or twice have I ever been let down by this place, think they had turned the cookers off a few months ago and was less than impressed with a lukewarm fish that I needed to reheat( I keep going back and that speaks for itself.

The gluten free batter was amazing, the other batter not so much. The Haddock tasted like Haddock - as it should. Gravy was a little too thick (Lancashire snobbery here). The mushy peas sensational! I started with a prawn cocktail which was as classic as I remember. The chips were, well just chips, nothing to rave about. The service was chaotic from our waitress. $25 squid each with tip and a drink.

We dropped into Capplemans around 6pm on a grey Tuesday night in June and it was busy and bustling…read morewith a mix of locals and tourists. We waited at the front of the shop as instructed by the clearly written sign which is prominently displayed as you enter the cafe (a fellow who ignored this instruction and found himself a table was greeted with the lovely put down of: "I suppose you will be wanting a table for one then sir"). After a couple of minutes we received a warm welcome from the young waitress and we were seated at a window table. The decor at Capplemans is very 1980's - think of an elderly relatives living room and you will get the idea - and the service has similar old school charm (if you are following instructions). This approach seemed to suit the majority of the clientele and while it's a little bit dated it did not detract from what was a very fine fish supper. I had a whale of a haddock with a small chips and a portion of mushy peas which came included in the price. Crisp batter, fresh fish and well cooked chips - it was a very tasty meal and even with a bottle of Black Sheep to wash it down I struggled to make it to the finish line. B was similarly pleased with her cod supper and also struggled with the portion size. We left after the best part of an hour with our wallet hardly any lighter and in serious danger of slipping into a food coma. This is a good thing .....
