Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 35 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Consumers frequently complained about poor product quality, describing the fish as grey, mushy, or resembling unappealing filler material rather than a proper fillet. People consistently noted that the serving portions felt excessively small and were heavily padded with thick batter instead of actual seafood. Reviewers additionally highlighted that the prepared meals tasted very unpleasant, with multiple individuals mentioning strange musty odors or unusual chemical flavors during cooking. Furthermore, buyers felt that the marketing photographs displayed on packaging were quite misleading and that their direct customer complaints received zero response from the business.

I used to think that Young's were reasonable quality especially the Chip Shop Fish but recently the fish have gone considerably smaller, for the same price of course. Young's must think its customers... See more

Tonight i bought a "Gastro"…

Tonight i bought a "Gastro" Cod,Spinach,Cheese & Potato Gratin From asda, im a big burly 51 year old with a big appetite but as it was late in the evening i bought my first ever ready meal, I now feel like i have been robbed by Youngs, The meal for one (meal thats a joke) had ZERO Cod or any other type of fish, not even a flake!! I dug around delibrately looking for the fish but sadly the only fish included in this meal was in the picture on the front of the box, maybe someone forgot to add it or there was no fish delivery that day? there was definatly no fish inside the box.
So if you are ever tempted to buy YOUNGS GASTRO COD, SPINACH & POTATO GRATIN don't bother because the fish has swam on past!!
I WOULD BE VERY INTERESTED TO HEAR FROM YOUNGS with an explanation! I DIDN'T MISS IT....IT WASN'T THERE!!!!
OH! THE 1 STAR IS FOR THE POTATO THAT WAS IN ABUNDANCE AND WAS ALSO COOKED!
