Ashbourne Fishbar & Restaurant in Derbyshire Dales

Decent fish and chips. Popped in last night on my way past and had mini fish and chips £7.50. Nice and hot and quick service too.

We arrived at our holiday accommodation late on the Monday and this place seemed to be only place open - I’d phoned the order through however when we got there place seemed a bit manic even though not many people in there - we presumed are food was going to be awful we were so wrong. The chicken kebab was amazing - chips were lovely and my son loved his burger. Very reasonable priced only regret I never ordered large chicken meat only to bring back home.

Thought we’d grab some fish and chips After a day at Alton towers. We waited best part of 25 mins. Both portions of fish we had smelt and tasted rancid - like ammonia. Chips were also hard still. Needles to say we didn’t eat it.

Quick service but as you’d expect when there was only us in the shop. Chips lovely, Fish poor, batter virtually tasteless & plain, very disappointing. Price reasonable & in line with other chip shops in the Peak District. I’d use again but would certainly stay away from the fish.

Visited after opening post Covid. There seemed to be virtually no adjustments or guidance for customers to keep them safe. Plenty of car parking on the street outside and also 2 nearby car parks. Food choice is pretty average, as is quality and portion size. On the day I visited I didn't find the staff very friendly. Prices are average.

I ordered Chicken Kebab and the kids had fish and chips and pie and chips, all the food was very nice and the seating was comfortable and we really had lovely food. Thank you

Standard of fish, chips and peas ,service and friendly welcome were excellent as always. We visit regularly and praise the consistency of this traditional establishment, we loved the service and the food, thank you very much.

Dropped in for takeaway fish and chips and were delighted with the quality, Hot and freshly cooked, these chips were some of the best we have had in some time.Good service and value too.

Went here today, we had large cod and peas very good, we ate inside. Nice friendly staff and the cod was cooked fresh.

Situated on Compton Street nice cafe werving fresh fish and chips with good service and good food try the Ashbourne special for value

Stopped here to pick up fish and chips to take home. There is however indoor seating available too. Food was great, good sized portions, service was fast and professional.

When you are in Ashbourne you must visit the market place fish and chip shop. Everything is cooked to perfection.

Visited Ashbourne a couple of week ago passing through! Lunch time & it was pouring down with rain. We parked the car & went in the fish bar to order. Not knowing there was a restaurant the lady asked if we would like to sit down & eat. The tables looked all nice & clean so we sat down. I had hot fish, chips & mushy peas with a cup of lovely hot tea. My husband had kebab meat with chips & tea. He said his was all nice & hot too. All very enjoyable then back for a walk-in the rain!

I visited along with two friends and our children. It was the fireworks night in Ashbourne so very busy. Although a queue we were served quickly and in a friendly manner. We ate in the restaurant and it didn’t take long for the food to arrive. We all had different dishes and all enjoyed what we had, even the kiddies. Perfect way to start the bonfire weekend!

Working in beautiful Ashbourne today! Popped here for Mini Fish & Chips takeaway at £3.70, choice of Gravy, Curry, Peas or Beans too, was quite a large portion for a Mini Meal! Very Nice!

Great fish bar again! Second time we have visited the fish bar and again failed to disappoint. Fantastic value fish and chips. 4 "Ashbourne specials" 4 very happy customers ☺

Las patatas fritas son muy bonitas y el tamaño normal es una buena parte. Sólo he tenido patatas fritas y salchicha maltratadas allí, y han quedado impresionados con el gusto, el tamaño de la porción, y precio.

Fish and Chips, highly recommended, friendly staff, fast efficient service. Good quality ingredients, lovely haddock.

Couldn't be bothered to cook so fancied a takeaway and the Ashbourne Fish Bar was our choice,

Lugar fantástico para comer, la comida era fresco, personal amable que eran tan educados, sin duda lo recomiendo a todo el mundo visitas aquí, hacía mucho tiempo que no he sido llamado señor, pero realmente hizo mi día. Gracias por el placer de tratarme con respeto cuando en húmedo el viernes por la tarde las cosas fueron de mal en brillante que pensaba que habría

Convenientemente situado para aparcar el coche en la calle, también en la calle King Edward (100 metros), o el aparcamiento principal shaw croft (150 metros), en el lado sur del centro de la ciudad.

Fuimos un viernes por la noche para una para llevar y estaba muy concurrido, así que tuvimos que esperar un rato. El servicio era amable y detallista. Las porciones eran grandes, y sabroso, aunque mi cod era un poco sosa, pero era muy barato, un buen 7 libras menos que la última similar que tuvimos. chippy Su zumo era razonable. Lo único que podrían mejorar es no tenían salsa "fish and chips", pero a lo mejor es regional. Sin duda volver

called here on off chance passing through what a lovely place clean friendly staff chips was just cooked right food was lovely A star

The Fish and Chips as well as the Kebabs in the Take Away are just great from this clean friendly establishment which has recently be refurbished throughout.

2.50 for a large chips, not bad. Chips a bit over done for my liking, but ok. Friendly fast service, portions ok, but been to others where this large would be another's medium.

Went with my son and three young granddaughters. Eat in at a large table in a clean room. Decor is a bit scruffy but, as said before this is a chip shop. The girl serving could not have been better. Some people learn customer service and some have it from the beginning, she was the latter. She made suggestions about quantities that got us just the right portions to leave everyone feeling stuffed but with empty plates.Food was very hot and very fresh. Good quality fish and potatoes and the oil was without any stale smell. In short excellent fish and chips. This is not a posh shop but it is a proper establishment that does what it says above the door.

I always go here when I'm in Ashbourne, which is probably 6-10 times a year. Staff are friendly and the food has always been first class and judging by the number of people who are always sat in or out, it's as popular as ever

Went to this Chip Shop last night, hardly had anything we truely wanted. Yes, it may just a Fish and Chip shop but I expect to eat what I purchase. Chips were cold, so was the Steak Pudding and Cod Roe. absolutely disgusting attitude when you complain, nothing is their fault. Will never go again - my advice - if you want your food hot and edible, try a true restaurant instead.

super fish ,light batter which is not heavy like other fish shops,big pieces,mountain of chips,great valve for money, all cooked fresh, very tasty and filling, friendly staff,now open on a Sunday. what more can you say... recommended

If you want to moan about decor/staff/quality of service, get a grip. It's a chip shop. Fast food / convenience food... The ashbourne special is well worth a punt. Never had an issue with staff. Very friendly and decent value for money.

The food was ok and the staff were polite but the surroundings in the sit down restaurant were shabby to say the least.

The staff were really cheerful and friendly - the food was great too! They had a great variety to choose from. Great value for money too!

Always stop here on the way to Dovedale. We always have the Ashbourne Special (chips, mini fish, battered sausage and curry sauce), take it along to the car park at Dovedale, eat it in the car at the car park and then walk it all off. Never had a bad meal and always plenty for 2 people. Unfortunately they are not open on Sunday's (wish they were).

fgood was brill staff work very hard also never been poorley ere always go and always will, the queeues r slightly big sum times but u kno the food is good

Great food that is the definition of a proper English chippy, great service that is the definition of efficiency and excellence and a great atmosphere when eating in. So good I'm going again in twenty minutes for my lunch break. £1 for a bit of cheese on some chips is pretty scandalous though!

The staff went out of their to make us feel welcome and accommodated our party of 6 in the restaurant despite it being closed. The food was hot and tasty and very filling!

Just to correct a previous review, this is not the chippie on the market square, it is on the main thoroughfare near to Waitrose and the police station on Compton street.Back on topic though we've had 2 meals from this place and can wholeheartedly recommend it. The food is cooked to order and the fish is of the highest quality (particularly the cod) with nice light batter and not too greasy. The chips are some of the best we have ever tasted from a chippie and the biggest plus is that the quality appears to be consistent each visit, something which can't be said for a lot of chippies in Derbyshire. Prices are also very reasonable. Go there,I'm confident you won't be disappointed.

We were looking for a quick bite to eat after having walked through dovedale - we found the fish and chip restaurant in the market square kind of tucked away, however it didn't disappoint!very clean and welcoming, the food was delicious - my daughter had the fish which I finished as she ordered a small one, but it was huge! very good value for money and would recommend this little gem to anyone!

The batter on the fish was possibly best ever tasted. Good chips and curry sauce too.Polite and quick service - traditional bread and butter too

Me and my friends eat from here atleast once a month and everytime it is lovely. The ashbourne special is mini fish, chips, sausage or battered sausage and a choice of mushy peas, gravy or curry sauce for £3.70 all cooked to order.

The fish is fresh, batter superb and the chips are from real potatoes, not pre-prepared. In addition a good range of "other" food.
