What Bromsgrove Says About Us

Judged on every single fry

Anyone can claim to be the best chippy in Bromsgrove. We'd rather let our customers do the talking.

Since Terry Mouskos — a third-generation fish fryer — took over Ideal Fish & Chips in 2008, one thing hasn't changed: if the fish, chips and kebabs going over the counter aren't right, nothing else matters. Every rating we've earned comes from real orders, fried fresh at 110 Birmingham Road and judged by the people of Bromsgrove one supper at a time.

Rated 4.7 out of 5 by over 1,200 customers

More than 1,200 customers have rated us through our Foodhub ordering app, and the score stands at 4.7 out of 5. That's not a handful of kind words — it's over a thousand local verdicts on our cod, our chips and our kebabs, given after the food actually arrived.

We're honest about where that number comes from: it's our rating on the Foodhub app our customers order through, not a Google score. But every one of those ratings was left by someone who tapped 'order', waited for their supper and then decided we'd earned it.

A 5-star Food Hygiene Rating to back it up

Taste is one half of the story — the other is what goes on behind the counter. Ideal Fish & Chips holds a 5-star Food Hygiene Rating from the Food Standards Agency, the highest score there is, following our inspection on 19 July 2024.

It fits with how we work: Lincolnshire potatoes chipped for the fryer, everything cooked in Frymax vegetable oil, all in a shop Terry fully revamped back in 2009. Whether your order is a Large Cod, a Doner Pitta or a Steak and Kidney Pie, you know exactly the standard it was prepared to.

The dishes people keep coming back for

We won't put words in our customers' mouths — but the order slips tell their own story. These favourites come up again and again:

• Large Cod (£9.60) — the classic, fried to order in crisp golden batter
• Mini Cod (£6.60) — the same fish, sized for a lighter supper
• Chips (from £3.50) — Lincolnshire potatoes, cut and fried properly
• Kebab Box (£7.99) — doner, tandoori or Mediterranean chicken over a cone of chips, sauce on top

From Aston Fields to Catshill, Sidemoor to Stoke Prior, these are the orders that keep our fryers busy six days a week.

Enjoyed your last order? Leave us a Google review

A quick Google review is the biggest favour you can do a local chippy. It takes a minute, it helps neighbours across Bromsgrove and B61 find us, and honestly — it makes our night.

Just search Ideal Fish & Chips Bromsgrove on Google, hit 'Write a review' and tell people what you ordered and what you made of it. Good, honest feedback is how we've built this place, and it's how we keep getting better.

And if something wasn't right? Please tell us first — call the shop on 01527 873228 and we'll sort it. We'd always rather fix a problem than lose a regular.
