Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is our regular takeaway xhop which we haven't been to for a while. We ordered a couple of burgers plus chips by phone and picked them up 10 minutes later. They were absolutely the best burgers and chips I can recall having here or anywhere else. Top food and service. Highly recommended.

We are regulars at Shaynes because of their good takeaways. We ordered by phone and found their hamburgers, big, and yummy, had improved a lot since our last purchase and their chips good as ever. It was a quiet Sunday evening so the service was quick. Keep it up guys.

Whenever possible if I'm in Taupo, I look for an opportunity to grab some Fish and Chips from Shaynes, its been a few years since I've had the opportunity to enjoy the pleasure but we were staying nearby recently so .................... Yep, they are still as good as I remembered from the past. We had crumbed and battered gurnard and a spring roll and chips. Cooked to perfection, crispy and no greasy. Best F & C's! Highly recommend. (I did think the Crumbed looked better than my Battered).

We ordered 4 snapper 6 scallops and chips The scallops were burnt and inedible and we threw them in the rubbish because we couldn’t be bothered with the staff who either are not able to speak English or pretend they don’t speak English I suspect it is the second as they understand English when taking the money Snapper was not fresh and soggy Chip portion was very small for the price We used to be regular customers here but will never return again

We ordered fish for adults and they were the size of kids fish! Smaller than a teaspoon. When we called we were told they were weighed 100gm... we weighed and it was no where near 100gm each. So sick and tired of ordered always being wrong and now we are being ripped off! No more! In the end we couldn’t be bothered taking it back. We’ll go back to Catch22 on Spa Rd. By far a better fish and chip shop!

When I dropped by tonight, the wait time was 45 minutes. Fair enough, you're busy. If I was able to order online earlier in the day, or you had been answering your phone, it wouldn't be a problem. But neither of these are the case. 1* only because I didn't get to eat. Decent food otherwise.

Terrible service on the phone. The lady was rude and even made comments like “oh gosh” when trying to place my order. Food is normally great but very off put by this staff member.

Quality fresh fish, nice crispy batter, golden chips with good flavour, I’m not sure what oil they use, but the chips are top notch and cooked to perfection 👍🏻

Takeaway burger and chips. Wish I had taken a pic. Best burger ever. Hawaiian. Super fresh lettuce. They keep on improving. Husband had an Egg burger. They were perfect.

The best fish and chips we’ve had since the 1990s. What a delicious dinner! There were a lot of people getting food here, it must be the go to spot for Taupō fish and chips.

Excellent fish and chips and fish cake. Fresh fish at fair prices. The fish was fresh, and the chips were not greassy. 18 meals were cooked in 30 minutes.

A disappointing meal last night. The two pieces of snapper were so tiny, literally only half a piece each! The chips were okay. Previously have been so happy.

Not sure what has happened here - this used to be a great fish and chip shop, getting worse each time now. Today greasy, not fresh fish - last time fish pieces were very small, thin and dry.
