Cod Father on The Move?

[Zapper]

Someone told me that the Cod Father is to move.
He said that the lease runs out at the end of the season, and the Cod Father is to move to the premises currently occupied by the Ivy Garden!

Anybody know anything?:

Cheers!

yes grapevine has it that the lease was being increased so necessitated a move to more suitable premises, dont know how it will affect trade though

I think have noticed The Ivy Garden up for sale on some property pages, in fact there are quite a few of them up for sale, well the lease anyway, sign of the times I'm afraid

Breakfast

Glad to hear the Codfather may be moving.Having sampled the 4.99 euros breakfast last week 1 deep fried plumb tomato 2 deep fried sausages,2 very salty rashers,1 egg,1 slice of toast,a glass of orange juice that could not be drunk as it tasted like fairy liquid.

My wife ordered a bacon bap consisting of one dry bap cut in half with two rashers droped in the middle@3.50.and a cup of coffee that was undrinkable.

They may have problems with the lease,but there is a few more things need tending.

That has got to be the worst chippy on earth! I had fish and chips,wife had cornish pasty and chips the kids had burgers and chips,extremely expensive,extremely greasey,and not very good customer service!The pasty had about 4 pieces of mince in it and I think the wife spat 2 of them out cos it was gristle!
Really poor quality there.in my opinion of course!

Agree with the above - it's a truly shocking place. Shame it's only moving a few streets. A relocation to Magaluf would have been greeted with loud applause from me, my family and everyone I know who has been unfortunate enough to eat there.

Bit of an eyesore

We've never eaten in the Codfather but its a bit of an eyesore! We normally eat at Manduca's next door and have to look onto greasy chips and tins of coke. Sound a bit snobish I know but......! Let's hope they don't replace it with a Tex Mex. What about taking over the lease and calling it The Tapas Bar?

 

[sws97sdg]

Sounds a good idea to me, I'll be chef

 

[ryansclan]

New restaurant venure in PP

What's your speciality of the house going to be then?

 

[JH02JLH]

I have a feeling it will be vegetarian!

If The Codfather is moving to the Ivy Garden, where is the Ivy Garden moving to?

 

[sws97sdg]

Spanish Vegetarian food

Very clever JH02Jlh, no its not were the Ivy is now I don't think

Yes the Codfather is to move.
The owner of the current Local/premises isn´t renewing the lease and we are moving to number 14 Calle de Levante, which is the Old Ivy Garden restaurant, in front of the Schleker Supermarket.
The Ivy Garden continues in its current location on the Formentor Road.
For those of you who know the old ¨Ivy¨, we will then have the inside seating area and the outside garden terrace.
We will be opening, builders permiting, on Friday the 16th of January and every Friday Saturday and Sunday during low season, of course seven days a week in high season.
Current plans include only opening in the late afternoons and evening (hours T.B.C.), all day Traditional Sunday Lunches and an extended fish menu, to include poached and grilled fish.
Full traditional take away menu, with telephone orders, to continue as is.
We will be releasing bullitins through puertopollensa.com.
Thankyou
Hope to see you there

Ah, but not everyone is on holiday. That is why there are restaurants and cafes to cater for all tastes. People of all nationalities live and work here all year and they like to eat out occasionally too.

Indeed. Fortunately my children are now getting beyond that stage. But I well remember that there was nothing like a good chippy for such moments. Unfortunately The Codfather is nothing like a good chippy.

The Codfather

I am sorry some of you have been disappointed with your meals at the Codfather. I have worked there for over five years and it is so difficult to please all of people all of the time, you can serve identical meals to two tables, one table will sing the praises and say it is the best Fish & Chips they have ever had the other will turn there noses up.

The Codfather has been a huge success for over 11 years and so many of the customers come back year after year and we have many who travel up especially from the south of the Island.

No restaurant can please all of the people all of the time, but I just wanted to put the balance right because I know many, many people do enjoy the traditionally cooked fish & chips at the Codfather.

Cod Father on The Move

I have to say that I have never had a bad meal at the Codfather and we have eaten in and also had takeaways and the food has always been really good.

I know it is not to everyone's taste, but I do feel like I have to come to its defence!!

I love to try all the local food, but do like the odd fish and chip lunch
