I went with a guy I support today and the ladies behind the counter were amazing with him, really made him feel comfortable and welcome. I've been to this chip shop a lot and the food is always on point but this really made me realise that I should totally do a review for such a fantastic restaurant. Ladies you're amazing.

It's nearly 50 years since I was last in Pearson's when my family had the business and then sold it to the Costa's. The restaurant has certainly expanded over the adjoining property. The fish and chips were very good, piping hot. Good service.

PEARSON’s is the best fish and chips I have ever eaten. My wife, my daughter, and I were looking around for such a place. It is our first experience here in the UK. The fish and chips had great flavor and AMAZING crunch. But really, I think the crispiness of the fish is what makes the fish so good and yummy. I recommend this place to anyone who wants to try this kind of food.
