Clem's - County Durham

The fish and chips are excellent value but the seating is very basic and quite uncomfortable. Staff are quite friendly.

On my usual Christmas visit to County Durham and I was NOT going to let the plague stop me having one of my favourite treats. Fish and chips at Clems! All set up for “social whatsitting” and the two staff on duty were brilliant. What difficult times for them all. But the cod was cooked to order and chips perfect. On a wet miserable day, the sun (yet again) rose temporarily into the sky. Thank you for being there and for creating “normal” for a short time. I’ll be back in the restaurant soon I hope.

Called today for two cod and chips. Found price to be really steep at £14 for two takeaway. Despite been freshly cooked to order they were only just warm when we got home after five minutes. Have only used this takeaway once before some years ago and will not be back at these prices. Much better fish and chip takeaways around.

Pleasant clean restaurant upstairs. Lovely staff and good service. Our haddock and chips were beautifully cooked and nicely presented. Nothing more to say......

Went in for fish and chips, I decided to have a Mince Pie as not stakes pies. Seating is fixed like Morrisons cafe was 20 years ago. My dads fish was ok, But chips undercooked. My Pie cam with gravy in a cup, Chips were soggy and not cooked long enough. We were given the bill before the food arrived and when we said we pay by contactless. We though this is no good. Told it was the owners decision. We thought incredible in 2019. I wished we walked out. Once food was served no one asked if it was ok. Next time it is Morrisons cafe. Very poor overall
