Best WLM Reviews

Small portions, mushy fries, more batter than fish. Clam plate, had no fries or bellies on the clams. Service was terrible. Ran out of clam cakes at 2pm on a Friday.
Place was clean. The only positive part of the dining.
People swear by the quality of food there. Can't live on your past reviews, because this establishment has the worst seafood in the area.
I am a flight attendant who browses around towns and states because I am just so curious. I rented a car on my days off and drove up to Woonsocket to see what it was all about. Of course I pulled into a Market Square parking lot and the first thing I saw was a fish and chips restaurant. I have always loved fish and chips my whole life and had a feeling that this place would be amazing. And it was. I ordered two fish a la carte and they were seriously the BEST two pieces of fish I have had in a really long time. The shut down, reopening, and economy has caused a lot of eateries to cut corners on the quality of food, but not this place. The price was worth it. Huge, thick, meaty pieces of fish.
I started going here 50+ years ago. The BEST fried fish I've ever had. Ridiculously large portions. My wife and I order an order of fish n chips with an additional filet....and we still bring some home. Their fried clams..whole bellies, are fabulous, and again, portions are huge.
First off I know my English fish n chips. You can smell the deliciousness from the large car park at the rear.
Queue up, place your order with the friendly counter staff and find a table. Collect your order and tuck in.
Obvs the chips cannot be the same as not the same potatoes as in the UK. But they were still pretty good.
The fish and its batter is excellent. Large portion. Highly recommend visiting.
The fish cake was not what I was expecting so some regional differences there. It was more like pressed fish in batter. That was big too.
Lots of regulars and a nice friendly atmosphere.
Best seafood platter for the price around. Matter of fact, best seafood portion.sizes for the price around!
I got the seafood platter with Huge scallops and shrimp, nice piece of fish, and big beefy fries.
The front of the house were super friendly. Our tables were clean and they wiped between customers.
We will be back for sure!
Whole clam plate came with a small portion of clams, fries actually dripping in grease, no tarter sauce, and no coleslaw (after she specifically said it comes with it). Chicken wasn’t great but wasn’t expensive. Don’t waste $35 on five clams! Like I just did
It's not about armosphere, its about the food! Only place I know of that has English style fish and chips. Its different than the way most places do it. In my opinion its delicious. You have to try it to really understand what I mean.
Definitely the most British 'chippy' experience so far since living here. Well worth the 30 mile drive from where we live in MA. Malt vinegar is on the tables and also available in 'to go' sachets. Just wish there was the option of curry sauce or mushy peas as a side. Also would have loved some bread and butter to make a chip butty. The portions were generous. I realized too late that I could have ordered a smaller portion but the pups enjoyed some delicious fish supper when we got home.We will come again!
