Handy corner store in Cromwell. Blue Cod and chips ok. Parking on street quite close if store park is full.

I ordered two portions of fish and chips. The atmosphere is pleasant, they had a heater and seats to wait for your order at ease. The food, for me, was good both in portion and in flavour (a little oily). Very friendly attention.

Fish and chips are yummy. Tidy store and warm service from the lady. Not sure why the rating is under 4.
