Ampthill Fish Bar in Central Bedfordshire

Best fish and chips in Bedford by a mile. Only downside they don’t deliver themselves or through just etc. always look forward to treating myself to some cod and chips when I can do so and recommend it to anyone!

Lovely chaps, great chicken wraps

Very clean and very good food !

Great food with great service. The gentlemen are polite and food is always on point and time!

We've been in Ampthill for over 3 years now and we keep saying: Always great food and service. Keep it up guys 👍 Mike

Lovely staff who are so welcoming. Food always good. Never had an issue. Highly recommended.

Great guy's,great fish ' n' chips etc. love it

Poor food, undercooked chips and rude staff.

Lovely food great service. Very clean

Best kebab around will definitely come back proves how good it was with how busy it was.

Always a good eat. Best chips in Ampthill or Flitwick

Lamb shish wrap with garlic mayo and chilli sauce is the one! The chips are great too if you like the chip shop style with loads of vinegar. Staff are friendly and nice chaps.

The lamb omg so nice Had to write a new review the lamb and donner meat tonight was amazing so good.

These chaps have turned this establishment around for the better it's now a gold mine 👌 good luck to them 👍

It's a takeaway so 0 atmosphere but the food is always tasty 😋

Been using Ampthill fish bar for many years, not the cheapest but the food is good - you get a fairly good size portion and the food is always fresh - pub next door is great for popping in to whilst you wait for your good. Would recommend - better than other local kebab shops.

2.90 for a small portion of chips. On the phone while serving me. No sauces offered. You think this is Harpenden High Street or something? Na it's Ampthill high Street just out of Bedford. Stop ripping people of just because you can and go trade in Luton/Bedford, where you are probably from and sell at a more appropriate price. Just like the Kurdish barbers round here charging London prices. 1 piece chicken and chips should be £3, not a small portion of chips.

Excellent fish and chips big portions

So after a long recovery we stopped by last night for a chicken and doner kebab £9.90 Not to bad if the foods good The chicken was burnt and the dinner was still pink and frozen Salad all on the sides with a fly in the tomato bowl was enough to know i didnt want salad Ended up in the bin as inwas scared to eat it

Offers a wide range of delicious food

This guy who served us was so rude, I will not be going back ever. I'd rather drive to nearby Flitwick from now on. They deserve to go out of business with customer service that bad 👎

Been in multiple times never had an issue until today. Went in at 4:05 on a Sunday (4pm opening time) guy told us to wait another 15 minutes. No problem as we went into the pub next door for a drink in the sun. Probably got back in the fish shop around 4:35/40ish. 1st problem, customer service. The man behind the counter was rude, didn't even say hello or asked us what we wanted. Made us feel like we weren't welcome. After deciding what to order we ordered at the counter, he didn't confirm anything. I then chose to add a Turkish burger after a few seconds of deciding, again he was rude whilst taking my order. After this whilst waiting he randomly shouted "salt and vinegar" at us. We said yes (he didnt put any salt and vinegar on the chips). Was also extremely rude when asking if I wanted salad in my burger. THEN he asked If someone else wanted sauce in their vegetable kebab, they said "yes please" and again he made them feel stupid and said "what sauce, what sauce! We've got loads" in a very rude manner. Then we pay and leave the shop get home after walking home. Open the food, missing a curry sauce (that we were charged for) no salt and vinegar on the food. Poor salad amount on the halloumi we ordered. And a very poor amount of doner meat on my Turkish burger. Again the chilli sauce was forgotten on the veg kebab and I didn't get any ketchup in my burger which I asked for. Again I have never had this issue with the other people that work there, it is just this one gentleman. Very disappointed as the food is normally very delicious and I am a fan of this place. Has made me hesitant to order again.

Had a steak & kidney pie, tasted disgusting, definitely wasn't steak & kidney!!

Bought fish& chips from here chips were ok but fish was disgusting not cooked properly may be a visit from environmental health might be needed to visit

Very friendly staff. They do the best food in Ampthill. I have been using them for 6 years and not once a problem. keep it up lads.

The worst ever takeaway I have ever been. However they all very very racist. They disrespect me and my country. I do not recommend this takeaway however I think people should not let racism to grow in ampthill!

Large cod and chips could easily serve 2 people. Cod quality is top notch. No seating which isn't a problem. Staff were welcoming 👍 If I'm ever around the same location I will definitely visit again!!

Regularly have Chicken kebab and would highly recommend. Fantastic

Food is good here. It's my go to for fish and chips any evening. They take card, there is normally space to park just opposite and fair prices.

Being new to the area I first tried this fish bar a month ago not a good experience I'm afraid the first time the fish n chips were cold by the time I got home 2/3mins and the second time yesterday thought I would give it another chance so had a 1 large cod 1 regular chips and 1 med doner according to the menu should have cost 6.50, 2.50 and 6.50 total 15.50 I was charged 17.10 No info that the prices had changed so not sure why I paid an extra 1.60 Many guys behind the counter all speaking in Turkish so couldn't say if they just thought it was worth trying it on as never seen me before. Fish hot this time but soggy I will not be going there again

Lovely chicken keba and Donner Fish chips were beautiful definitely go again

I bought fish and chips here at about 6:30 on a Saturday. The food was fresh and tasty and good value. I'd come here again. Would have been five stars except the service was a bit slow and I had to remind them about the mushy peas they'd forgotten about.

The Halloumi and Vegetable Combination Kebab is really tasty and their chips are reliably good too.

Staff warm welcoming, aint had a fish and chips like this before. Amazing

Great little fish and chip shop kebabs are ace and the staff are friendly they somehow remember everyone's name

Went in after long day of work, busy no issue with that but the fact while I sat there waiting 3 people walked in ordered the same thing then just stood at the front and all got their exact same order 20 minutes before me. Wouldn't go again

Told us to leave because We wanted to pay by card and not cash even tried pushing my friend out of the shop for being too loud. A complete joke and the food isn’t even that good and ridiculously overpriced

This was the worst fish and chips I've ever had the batter was like rubber and there was only a thin amount of cod i only ate a small amount of it As it was that bad brought a sausage as well looked inside didn't look right binned it made me ill for a day to top it off im never going back

The food is really nice and good quality and the staff are friendly. Been going here over a year for fish and chips when I fancied it and never had a bad experience.

Used this takeaway the other night. We had a mixture of kebabs with chips. The staff were friendly, the service was great, and the food was very tasty. They have a good selection at reasonable prices. I was very happy. I would highly recommend this business!!

I have to clarify that the food is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. The staff are incredible like always! The chip shop is brilliant. The manager always notifies us if there is a problem. For me ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ordered 3 kebabs got home 2 out of the 3 were wrong took them back.Said I had orderd a Donna kebab when I ordered a chicken and Donna but charged me the price for a mixed.Was so rude about it needs to go on a customer service course.Cannot fault the food at all but shall not be returning.

Never had a bad meal from Ampthill Fish Bar. Great fish, tasty fresh kebabs. Even when mad busy, always produce the goods

Really good fish a chips, pie and sausages. Thumbs up. Looking forward to another visit soon.

Great choice for a healthy and in a good price takeaway. As full time working people, they saved our lives. The staff is always helpful and hardworking. Aidan and Elina!

Love the food. I couldnt find parking.

I’ve waited ten years TEN YEARS okay ? To try a real English fish&chips. Ended in Ampthill pretty much by luck and drive past the place. First I did not understand as it’s called Anpthill Fish Bar but they advertised kebab and burgers. Still went to the net saw some awful and gorgeous reviews. Well I just got one of the best new of my life. Am no expert in fish&chips just heard how it was supposed to taste from an old Kitchen’s nightmare show. Well it tasted how he described it and how I’ve always wished it tasted. Marvelous. Would recommend 100% (Careful if not from England you might find it odd that they ask if you want “only salt” on your fries because they mean salt and vinegar otherwise ^^

Very nice, clean and staff polite.

Had a steak & kidney pie, tasted disgusting, definitely wasn't steak & kidney!!!!

For what I ordered; larger doner, salat in pitta and a portion of chips, I couldn't fault it. Doner was soft, chips fluffy and just a tasty joint. 💯🔥

Lovely chicken kebabs, the donner I’m not keen on at all and tastes a bit like cardboard, staff are nice enough, but prices are a bit too steep.

Great service, good value and lovely food!

Lovely kebabs, fresh and tasty just how it should be.

Best kebabs around. Always so friendly and boss man remembers you so well he makes you feel like family 💕

Decent, fresh kebabs, friendly and quick service.

Great fish and chips. Ordered in advance. Great service

Not only the nicest mixed kebab around but the best guys too. Can’t speak highly enough of them all

Freshly cooked food served with a smile

Fantastic fish and kababs really good

The mixed kebabs with pitta and salad are excellent. Great food every time and great portions. Excellent value.

Have been going to this place for years and it's just perfect, kebabs are delicious, burgers and everything else! Staff are very, very friendly and they're always busy which is a good sign. Good on them for surviving through the last year too! If you want a classic kebab, these are the boys to go see!

Terrible service, called up they said it would be ready in half HR had me waiting there for another half HR, all while people who ordered after were getting there food first, to top it all off they got the order wrong too, rather take my money to best kabab much better service and quality of food

Friendly, fast and the kids love it for a treat.

Great kebab shop, possibly too good as service can be slow when they are busy, sign of how good they are!

New Years eve 2020, 4 portions of fish & chips - absolutely excellent!!!

The fish & chips was very tasty & hot. There's plenty to choose from the menu. Staff our very friendly.

The pieces of fish were large and the only gripe I have is the batter wasn't very crispy, but otherwise was very lovely.

Great chips and or fish. Sell kebabs too

This is the worst haddock and chips i have ever had. These guys have absolutely no idea how to batter and fry a fish or a potato as a matter of fact, terrible will not return. ALSO VERY OVER PRICED!! £9.50 FOR AWFUL FISH AND CHIPS.

Love these guys, they work so hard and the food is always spot on!

Appauling Got home we took one bite and our chicken kebabs went in the bin , swimming in some kind of oil and not cooked in the middle

Lovely food 10 out of 10 Ampthill Fish Bar

Great food, called earlier for collection, food ready upon arrival. Only 2 customers allowed in shop at any one time for distancing requirements but space available outside to wait if necessary. Thanks guys for your service.

Really enjoyed the food here, excellent veggie options (the halloumi kebab was very tasty) plenty of options for fillings and the guys running the place are really friendly.

Best chicken wrap I’ve had, highly recommend

Amazing food. Best kabab I have ever had

Just moved into the area and found this to be my local chippy. The guy taking the order was very polite. We got got chatting and told him I was new to the area. He gave baklava as a welcome to the village. Now thats customer service to a new level. The food was lovely and looking forward to ordering more from their menu. Thanks guys. teşekkür ederim

Always polite and excellent food.

Really good food, served quickly and with pleasure. Really enjoyed the experience

Excellent food. Falafel wraps are amazing. Perfect place for Friday night dinner

Excellent kebabs. Would give 5 stars but like everything in Ampthill you pay more for the privilege.

Came in just for fish and chips and they do great kids meals! No parking which is a shame but would go back for the food.

Excellent service, made our large order up on time and everyone was very happy with the quantity & quality. Our family break got off to a brilliant start. Thoroughly recommended, Cheers Guys. Paul

Can't believe they charged me £250 for a kebab, left me with a right nasty stomach for a few days!!

Always been happy with the food I've ordered. But always forget its cash only... Only bad point

If you want to spend £7 on cold grey doner meat and cold chips, you've found the right place.

Really tasty burger. Very efficient and friendly staff.

Clean, good food with a wide range of options. They have something for the whole family 👍

Excellent food served by happy attentive staff,just what Ampthill needed a good multi food establishment.Awsum Kebabs with help choosing what you want.😊

Gone down in my estimation, Kebabs are small, chips aren't the best.

The best chicken kebab I've had in years

Fantastic food - would reccomend!

Love the grilled kebabs, great service they always let me have extra jalapeños!

Good chips, portion size all over the place though, sausage supper having twice the chip portion you the chips and cheese

Good quality food reasonably priced for what you get. Would recommend.

Brilliant kebabs and always friendly staff.

Not a patch on the fish and chips on Windmill Rd Flitwick

Ordered some dinner for my daughter, which took them 20 minutes to cook and just as we were leaving they experienced an issue with their card machine. As I didn't have any cash on me, they decided to take the food back. Ridiculous service. Do yourself a favour and go to the chip shop in Flitwick!

not v good service, pink chicken!

First time visit to this place, hard to find a chippy open on a bank holiday Monday - quality of the Fish was amazing & the chips were top-notch. This will now be our go-to chippy.
