The smithy although looking a little worn on the inside is staffed by a friendly team who cook food to order making sure it comes out hot and fresh. So far this is the best chippy I've had in Barrow area. Lots of options on the menu for very reasonable prices.

Good old fashioned chippy. Plenty of options on the menu and friendly service. Chips were a bit dry/stale when I had them. Possibly due to quiet time of day that I visited. But otherwise good, curry helped mask that.

Delicious gluten free sausage and chips, the best I've had in a while, shame we live 65 miles away but surely will think of an excuse to visit again! Lovely service, friendly staff! Even gave water to our dog! Thank you :)
