Gordon's Fish & Chips

This well-regarded neighbourhood chippy sits in a quiet residential pocket of eastern Yeovil, serving freshly cooked fish and chips to a steady stream of loyal locals. It scores an impressive 4.5/5 from 237 reviews, with customers singling out the perfectly cooked Cod And Chips, the fragrant curry sauce and chips that many reckon are among the best in town. Everything is fried to order, so a short queue at busy times is not unusual — usually a fair sign the food is worth the wait.

Alongside the traditional fish-and-chip staples, the menu runs to freshly fried chicken, sausages and the usual chip-shop extras, all served with friendly, efficient counter service. Portions are generous and the cooking is unfussy and consistent, which is exactly what regulars want from a proper local takeaway. With its handy position away from the busier town-centre spots, it makes a reliable go-to option for families and workers across this side of Yeovil, and the steady flow of repeat custom speaks for itself.
