Genoa

A first visit. This place boasts to be over 100 years in business. A take away codfish & chip is £6.40 so it’s overpriced by about £1. The chip portion is generous. The double cooked chips are just about alright, but not very good, as they weren’t crispy, as if they are not cooked at the proper temperature. Too expensive not to be just perfect. You’d imagine with over 100 years in business they could serve up perfect fish and chips every time. The cod was cooked to order, which is a plus, but the cod is disappointingly quite thin. The batter is delicious and light though. The fish was good but again should be more chunky at this price. I had a look at the sit in menu as I waited for my order. I saw that a fish and chip for one person with tea, bread and butter is about £10. Again overpriced by £1.50 and no-​one was sitting — in so join the dots. Why is it in this mentality that prompts a rip — off action rather than a fair price? The staff certainly are a friendly bunch. Parking on the plaza is a real challenge driver courtesy is hard to find. I won’t rush back.
