Penaluna's Famous Fish Chips

Very lovely food (gluten free can be even more pricey though). I 've always ordered gluten free and loved it but found out that the reason for my allergic reactions hasn 't been gluten but soya. I made them aware that I had a soya allergy and was told that everything apart from the sausages is soya free. I 'm very glad that I then asked if they are cooked together because if I hadn 't, I would have no idea that the reason I 've had allergic reactions is cross contamination. So the gluten free things are all cooked together and without asking, I would have had no warning about the cross contamination with soya. No issue with that, but that information should be ready to hand to someone as soon as they say 'soya allergy '. This has been my only issue after years of being a customer, but it might be an important one for other allergy sufferers to know about. Sad that I 'm unable to order from there anymore because the food is absolutely brilliant and I can 't fault the gluten free standards.

I have been coming here for many years. The staff are friendly and helpful. The fish is always freshly cooked and the chips are always a golden colour and not overcooked.

Fish and chip from the Penalunas van last night at a special occasion Service and food outstanding what an amazing team well done to you all. I would 100% recommend This van for any special occasion. Thank you all xx

Always excellent food and brilliant service for customers with allergies. Good vegetarian options also. Would highly recommend.

I 've been wanting to visit Penaluna 's for some time due to the plaudits they 've won. I found a chippie that really doesn 't stand out from the crowd. The staff were smart and pleasant. Service was reasonably quick. Freshly cooked fish chips; the portion sizes were adequate, the batter was soggy, the chips were badly peeled with a lot of the skin still left on making them visually unappealing. There was no 'Wow factor ' here at all. They 're relying upon their inflated reputation to charge more than you 'd expect to pay in this neck of the woods. It is to their credit that they sell products from the Victoria Park Pie company, (Claaarksies). It seems that Penaluna 's is better at self publicity about being exceptional than actually delivering the exceptional! My visit to this establishment was informed by the food hygiene rating of 4/5 (Good).
