Most Disliked
While most experiences are positive, some patrons have mentioned the occasional wait during peak hours, particularly during lunch. Although the staff does their best to manage orders efficiently, busy times can lead to longer waiting periods. A few customers have expressed desires for more variety in the sides offered alongside their meals, citing a wish for options beyond the traditional accompaniments. Additionally, while the casual atmosphere is appreciated, a small number of visitors have suggested that improvements to the dining space could enhance comfort during sit-down meals, particularly on busier days.

I have now lived in Scunthorpe since 2003, To date Sam's is the best chippy I have found locally. Nice friendly staff, for once at last I have found people who know how to correctly prepare fish. Everything is freshly prepared in front of you to a very good standard.
