Frome Takeaways

90 Forest Road , Frome, Somerset, BA11 2TU

Codswallop is a long-standing fish and chip shop on the eastern side of Frome, a familiar stop for residents looking for a traditional fried supper close to home. Alongside the usual cod, haddock and plaice, the counter offers a wider spread than many chippies, taking in burgers, southern-fried chicken and homemade pies, plus a few lighter choices for those after something other than the deep-fryer. Recent visitors note the shop has been refreshed under new management, with cheerful service and freshly cooked food.

Reviews are honestly mixed, as they often are for a busy neighbourhood takeaway, but supporters point to well-cooked fish in a crisp, non-greasy batter and plentiful, fluffy chips. A classic Cod and Chips remains the order most regulars reach for, and the portions are reliably hearty. It currently holds a 3.4/5 rating on Tripadvisor across a spread of reviews. Worth knowing before you set off: it has been known to take cash only, so it pays to come prepared.

Coop Kitchen brings a hit of proper street-food flavour to Frome, working out of The Ship in the town centre and turning out the kind of indulgent comfort food made for sharing. The line-up leans into dirty burgers, buttermilk fried chicken, loaded wings and cheese-smothered poutine, with bold sauces and big, messy flavours the order of the day. It has built a name locally for its succulent Penleigh beef patties and its crisp, tender chicken, drawing in a steady crowd after something a cut above the usual fast-food fix.

Reviewers reserve particular praise for the wings, often called some of the best around, while the Korean Chicken Burger and the Pulled Pork Poutine have become firm signatures. Feedback is a little mixed on portions and value, as is common for a kitchen this ambitious, but the flavours rarely disappoint. Whether you grab it to take away or settle in nearby, it is a welcome change of pace from the standard Frome takeaway menu and a treat worth seeking out.
