Honestly, I'm sorry, but the fish and chips were terrible. The fish was dry like sawdust and appeared to have been in the serving tray for a long time. The chips were fresh and good. The curry was so cold that the woman in the queue next to me sent it back and dipped her finger in it to illustrate! We like DFDS, but the food at 7.00 p.m. was definitely end-of-the day food.

We had a great journey and staff were very friendly. The lateness of the departure was due to the weather so no one's fault.
