Best fish around. The burgers are fantastic and, well, all the food is fantastic. The staff are amazing too. We love Charlie's

By popular demand, I visited Charlie De Cod ! So many people recommended this spot, and I can see why – the fish and chips were absolutely fantastic. The food was fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. Highly recommend for anyone craving great fish and chips in Ipswich!

Yum yum yum yum!!!! Who doesn't love fresh fish and chips at a reasonable price? Get in early, there's a que for this place and for good reason. Everything is good and fresh and hot. Portions are a good size, far from stingy. We really like this place. It's clean, the guys cook at an incredible pace and do a great job. Most people do take away but there are tables out front if you want to sit down and enjoy your meal right away. We tried the deep fried mars bar for the first time, heads up, it's not a full mars bar, it's the fun size ones. Pics attached for reference.
