Had a large fish and chips for me and my wife, very friendly staff and even larger portions. We just about managed to finish the fish and one portion of chips between us. Sometimes fish and chips hits the spot and as far as that goes would highly recommend.

I would highly recommend getting your fish & chips from here especially if you’re gluten intolerant as they have two nights a week where they can cater for you. Me and my friend come regularly on one of the gluten free nights. The fish is amazing and so are the chips, we always eat in and watch the world go by. The guys are so friendly we have a really good time with them. They even bring our coffees to us after we’ve eaten. Honestly the food is consistently delicious and well worth every penny.

Well what can I say! After spending alot of time in Cornwall with amazing fish and chips my standard is pretty high and haven't found anywhere that's great untill today. Best customer service that I've received anywhere of recent. Great atmosphere and customer attentiveness. Fish freshly cooked whilst there. Alot of places the fish is all batter and not fish where as jollys is quite the opposite..all fish and not batter. The portions are great. Enjoyed a Kurdish tea whilst the fish was cooking and also tried the potatoes which also are lovely and some chicken which equally was spot on. 100% recommend for quality and value and service that tops others. Really hope you enjoy as much as I have and I'm sure you won't be disappointed. Look forward to returning and would like to say thankyou. My visit was beyond expectation. If your looking for a chip shop in Daventry jolly is the place to go!

Really friendly staff, fresh delicious food. Highly recommend!! Chips are perfect, chicken strips are the best I have had in a long time, kebab is delicious, fish portions are massive and the taster potatoes are a bonus. Really reasonable prices.
