The Ruddy Duck - North Down

My First ever visit and simply Whoa . how did i never know about this Fab fish and chip cafe Cod and chips so fresh real home cooked chips and Les,s fish bap was GINORMOUS and so good Staff really nice even though the Que was 5 miles long to get in . definitely gona be a weekend treat here

Food was good , sat in , 10% charge for sitting in that was ok , cheese burger on its own and curry chip £12.80 no drinks , you do not know the price till you leave , if the owners are reading this you need to say how much the meal costs when we order, we will come back once more because the food was good but sort the till out otherwise we will not be back.

Absolutely terrible surely they must know that their chips are not cooked correctly chips are greasy and soggy and do not have that typical chip shop flavor. Something going badly wrong here. It is also quite expensive, which is doubly disappointing.

Checked the online menu before ordering. Pictures of menu boards on Ruddy Duck web page. Two Chicken burgers at £4.95 each became £14 at the till! “Oh, that must be out of date” he said and asks his friend…”Do we have a web site”? So 40% higher than on line. Went to Dirty Duck/Ruddy Duck website to message them…they don’t appear to have an email address. They do a good Chicken Fillet burger but the promised few extra chips when ordering by phone not included. Disappointing.

We tried to order from The Ruddy Duck tonight, but after rushing to get there before closing, at 8.55pm we arrived at the restaurant only to be told they weren't taking any more orders. Absolutely shocking service given we went to extra effort to get there on time and they clearly had food available. Awful service and they clearly don't give a toss about customers. We won't be back.
