Most Disliked
Some reviews make mention of occasional inconsistencies in quality control. Though most have positive experiences, a few off days hint at potential areas for improvement. A couple of patrons noted that the chips sometimes arrived with a touch of sogginess, which could be a downside for those who enjoy their fries crispy. While the prices are reasonable, a few diners express that they would appreciate even more variety in the set meals. A minor limitation exists with limited indoor seating, which might not cater to larger groups effectively. Despite these concerns, The Galley maintains a loyal following thanks to its delicious offerings and commitment to value.

Had a medium Cod, Plaice, Large chips and Curry sauce and overall it was great value and did not disappoint. Fish was large and good quality and the chips survived journey home without succumbing to unreasonable levels of soggyness. Looking at the reviews here it seems like they may have had some issues in recent past with consistency of quality control, and while I've only been here once, I'd honestly give them the benefit of the doubt because the food I received was perfectly good. Would recommend, will go again.
