Most Disliked
One common critique is the cash-only payment policy, which can inconvenience those arriving without cash in hand. Although many appreciate the quick service, there are times when waits can extend, particularly during peak hours like Friday evenings. The lack of extensive vegetarian options also receives mixed reviews, with some urging for more diversity on the menu. Lastly, while the casual atmosphere attracts many, a few diners express a desire for a more cozy interior design. Despite these minor issues, the overall experience at Jolly Fryer remains positive, with food quality trumping other concerns.

Loaded fries are incredible. Delicious, so generous, the chicken is amazing quality and it's such good value. Everything is incredible there to be honest, but these really stand out

Great tasting fish and chips! Able to do fish without the batter for me as I am gluten free (gf) as well as gf chips. So enjoyed. Recommend!

Best chips I've had from a chip shop in a long time, and the free salt and pepper crunchy chip bits were very good. I will be back!

Fast and friendly service. Lots of portions of chips needed to feed a crowd of hungry adults. Not a single complaint. A return visit is definitely in order.
