Tom's Place reviews
I ate there with my young children and would not recommend it. The portions were too large for them and I think the staff should have suggested they share. They also failed to offer me a doggy bag which when you are paying nearly £10 a head for childrens food is a must.
The ice creams came straight out of the freezer in cardboard tubs complete with wooden sticks which my children could not manage.
On the whole dissapointing.

I really don't think this place qualifies for this website's attention. While living in Australia, I've often eaten truly superb fish and chips - light years better than anything served in this country. So I had high hopes about this place. As all discerning Antipodeans know, the key to making good fish and chips is as follows:
Delicious fresh fish perfectly cooked
Great beer batter
Perfectly fried chips
Salad
Dry crisp white wine, ideally a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc
Tom's kitchen, very sadly, could learn a thing or two about these high standards:
The fish was over-cooked
The beer batter was slightly too thin and not very lovely
The chips were served cold and tough
The salad leaves looked fine but the dressing was disgusting. Something very weird was in the dressing - we're still trying to figure out what
The wine was almost all from England! They were able to offer an off-the-menu French Sauvignon. But why only (otherwise) serve wine from a country unknown for its wine making prowess??
Therefore, this place got just about everything wrong. We were very cheerily waved goodbye, which was the only good thing to say about this high priced, low quality fish and chip shop.
