First visit tonight: excellent fish, really fluffy and crispy chips (the best chip shop chips for many years) and lovely and kind staff. Great place and looking forward to a weekly visit whilst we have a temporary stay in the area. Highly recommended.

The Old Plough Chippy is among the most highly rated chippies in Oldham, and it is easy to see why. Located on a corner with free private parking at the rear, it offers convenience alongside its culinary delights. The staff are warm, friendly, and very polite. The in-house cheese and onion pie slice brought back fond memories of my youth, featuring plenty of real cheese, a light pastry, and nice pieces of onion. It was delicious! The Irish curry sauce was also tasty, as was the rag pudding and cheese and mayo chips. The haddock was just okay, and the batter was on the greasy side and somewhat thick. It was a nice lunch after a long drive, and the cheerful staff made for a happy customer.

Coeliac's Dream I had gluten free fish, chips, sausage, curry sauce and peas. Curry sauce was the best I've had from a chippy (pre and post diagnosis). Bloody gorgeous. Batter on fish very crispy. All so tasty!! Great service and knowledgeable staff. Wish I lived closer!!!
