Driftwood Fish and Chips

Bowness-on-Windermere · LA23 3HE

No reviews yet5★ FSA hygieneA divisive Bowness chippy — fans praise fresh fish, nice batter and proper chippy chips with mushy peas and tartare included, but a notable minority flag small portions, high prices and unwelcoming staff (roughly 3.0-3.8/5 across Google and TripAdvisor).
