Athena's Fish & Chips in Rother

Really fresh tasty fish, cooked to order, always piping hot, always good sized portions and the staff are lovely too.

Best fish and chips by miles. The food is always cooked fresh and doesn't end up soggy once unwrapped like most do. There's a great selection to choose from and gluten free options on regular days. The owner and staff are so friendly and helpful. I don't eat out or get takeaways all that often as I'm often disappointed but this place never lets us down and is always such a treat ❤️

Brilliant fish and chips - ethically sourced. Collection or delivery only and ordering on internet only. Very helpful holy recommended.

We stayed near Athena and dropped by to pickup and order of cod, chips and sausage. The batter is fresh, crispy. The fish super fresh and great taste. The CHIPS so good! I wish Athena was open more than three nights a week though. I guess they can afford to run the business part-time, so keep doing what you do :-)

Best fish and chips ever we drive 15 miles to Come here best mushy peas I ever tasted All home made including the garlic mayo 👌

Decided to try 'athenas fish & chips..its a different ordering service to other places, could only do it on line, so had to down load the app to do this , bit of a rigmarole but got there in the end..was it worth it ? Well was really looking forward as the reviews are great! But was disappointed really, the cod itself was great but the batter , well there wasn't much of it ,it should have been encased in a lovely crispy batter that's what the pictures look like, & I expected but this was bit thin & limp, as for chips they were quite dry & got worse as they got colder.. homemade mushy peas, which are really expensive £1.65 a small portion were disappointing too! Such a shame!

We had a really lovely fish and chip super on the beach thanks to Athenas. They even provided coeliac friendly for my MIL. They did come with the proviso that the kitchen isn’t free of gluten but they went to all possible effort to make it for her and rang me to just confirm this. The grilled fish option was lovely and went perfect with my homemade salad to avoid fried food. Absolutely delicious and catered for us all perfectly - Coeliac, weight loss conscious, hungry dads and even the kids with their kids potions! We ordered in advance via the website which was easy to use. Minimum order of £10. We will be making this a regular thing on their gluten free day once a month! And we now have a favourite chippy in Bexhill!

Always make a point of visiting Athena’s every time we visit due to it being the BEST fish and chip shop in Bexhill. Really generous portions and amazing food. Staff really helpful and go above and beyond

We have recently moved from Hastings to Bexhill and were looking for a fish and chip shop that caters for Gluten Free customers! And we have found one! My dad ordered Gluten free fish and chips and thoroughly enjoyed it, the non gluten free food was also delicious and there was plenty to feed all 4 of us! The only downside is that Gluten free is only available on the last Thursday of the month, we will be ordering again, thank you!

We got here just in time to have cod and chips with sublime homemade tartare. Drove to the seafront and had a FEAST! Best fish and chips, probably of all time for me. Flawless flavor, no grease, crisp batter, ace chips. Do try it- you’ll be glad you did!

Lovely fish and chips from here. Only place I will order from now. Great value for money, good portion size and lovely smiling service when you go collect. Thank you

Had to order in advance and pay on line. collected at exact time it was ordered for and the fish was 100% but the chips were dried up and barely warm

We enjoyed another delicious takeaway last night from Athena's. I love that you can pre-order, no queuing or waiting around. The food is fresh and not ever at all soggy (like most / all other fish and chips once they're wrapped). Completely Covid safe for their staff and customers. Thanks again to Athena's for another delicious dinner

Used to love this chippy they have got the best fish & chips however sadly they used to have gluten free options which they no longer have (except on the 1st Tuesday of the month!), as I have coeliac disease I'm no longer able to eat here!

Had the haddock with chips, I've eaten at a fair few chippies around Bexhill but have to say this is the best so far, lovely batter and really fresh fish - highly recommended

Had the most delicious fish and chips from here this evening. I love the app and not having to queue or wait is brilliant. The food is so good. Can't recommend more highly.

I am very careful about where i eat due to coeliac disease and needing gluten free food, not all restaurants understand how important cross contamination is. So we went to check it out first before ordering online, i believe it was the owner that came out and he seemed to totally understand and allayed all my fears, chips always fried separately, grilled fish is fine, only sauce with gluten was the curry sauce. People dont always understand the fear for coeliacs to eat out and the worry as your eating but i could really enjoy my food for once and im so grateful. It was so tasty and i really enjoyed it and not ill effect, thank you!! :)

I ordered via the website for a collection, food was ready when I arrived. On arriving home my food was not only piping hot but the batter on the fish lovely and crispy. My husband and son thoroughly enjoyed their accompanying mushy peas, tartare sauce and garlic mayo (all homemade). We will definitely be ordering again. Thankyou

Here on holiday and saw the good reviews for this business.I walked past yesterday to check it out and was impressed by how spotless it was.Ordered on line, which was simple as the Website is excellent.We strolled along at 6.30 to be immediately warmly greeted and given our meal, beautifully packed to takeaway.Safe service 100% efficient Excellent website Absolutely delicious cod, chips, mushy peas and tartare sauce.Perfect portion and excellent value.Highly recommended.

We have always used this place as the fish is so good.We have been ordering online and collecting our order, it's so simple to do and choose a time that is good for you.The food is always ready just as you arrive at the time stated and is absolutely delicious.Highly recommended.

So disappointed, a member of my family, visiting from London, who was unfamiliar with the current ordering procedure, was spoken to so rudely, and sworn at, by a member of your staff, this evening.

Just had 4 portions of cod and chips delivered from Athenas fish and chip shop. Arrived exactly on time. All the food was fresh and hot. The batter and chips were lovely and crispy. The fish beautifully white and flakey. Along with the home made Tatar sauce, it was an excellent meal. All the packaging was recyclable. Top marks for this takeaway.

The loveliest Gluten Free fish and chips I have every eaten. Wonderfully friendly and helpful staff. Massive portions. Fish was so moist and better was sooo crispy. Would highly recommend.

Spotlessly clean shop, friendly staff and quick service. Every order is cooked to order. As a vegetarian, I appreciate the battered halloumi burgers cooked to perfection.

I've never had a bad meal from here. The food is cooked fresh to order and is always delicious. The staff are really friendly and knowledgeable which is important as they offer gluten free options too. Thoroughly recommended (especially those jumbo king prawns!)

These people really do actually understand gluten intolerance! Unbelievably light and delicious batter. After 20 years without, I didn't think I'd be able to stomach a full-on fried dinner, but, oh my goodness this was delicious!!!!G-F = First Tuesday of the month...Athena's you're booked in in biro.Thank you!!!! xxxxxxPS - It's gluten-free night first Tuesday of the month but they've got a designated chip fryer every night - informed and accomodating, have grilled me a bit of fish to go with my chips on the non-GF nights. Very grateful.

I think this must be just about the best battered take away fish I've had, and I don't tend to fling around my praise! Served with great chips in paper take away containers (admirable) and very flavoursome mushy peas, I was most impressed. This is my second visit - I can't remember if I reviewed the first time, but this experience was even better. And what's even better, they now take cards! :-) Keep up the good work, for as you know, complacency (which is rife) will ruin your business! Highly recommended.

Very tasty food and not overly expensive at all. Staff were very friendly and obliging Well Recommended

Fantastic food and take away. Staff can’t do enough for you. We visit from Eastbourne just to have their halloumi and locally caught fresh fish.

Love their fish and chips, crispy batter and amazing chips. Love their homemade sauces especially the homemade mushy peas. Fair price for the quality food.

I usually use the fish and chip shop in Little Common but, it is being renovated at the moment so I went Athena's in Bexhill centre. Large haddock absolutely delicious, lovely fish crispy batter, good chips. Staff are nice and everything looks clean.Recommend it highly.

Whilst visiting family in the area we called in by chance after strolling by one evening. The premises are lovely and very clean and the appearance is what enticed us in. We had fish and chips but to be honest they weren't that great. Not sure if we had a bad batch of chips but they tasted like frozen chips and the fish was small for the price. Disappointing after seeing they have so many great reviews.

It seems inadequate calling this a fish and chip shop. They do so much more - and gluten free as well. They hhave slightly more limited opening hours compared to some but search them out and try them. The best around.

Lovely crisp and light batter on the fish, and nice chunky fish too. Chips are lovely, crispy in the outside and soft in the middle . Great service.

Fantastic fresh food cooked to absolute perfection. I have no problem in recommending this eatery to anyone at any time.

This plaice in my opinion is then fish & chip takeaway in Bexhill, chips are delicious and you find a better bit of batter anywhere.

We ate in. Very good value. Quality of fish & chips high. Fish excellent. Would definitely go back there to eat.

Rang ahead and they were very knowledgeable about gluten free. When I arrived I got a warm and pleasant welcome. I placed my order and asked about gluten free, the lovely bloke explained about what was gluten free and even coeliac disease. I had grilled fish and chips and it was lovely. The batter on the other cod looked delicious and very light. They do a gluten free batter on the first Tuesday of the month. Would definitely recommend and will be returning.

The best fish and chips for miles! They really know what they are doing and the staff are friendly and helpful which is rare! Worth every penny and always consistently good.

All in the title, just don’t go anywhere else in Bexhill for Fish and Chips. Nothing else comes close to matching them for quality, care and attention.

My daughter recommended Athenas and was so glad I gave it a try. Will not go anywhere else now. Fish and chips seem to be completely oil free, no greasy hands after eating on the beach . Amazing light batter. First class. Thankyou

Lovely plump fish, good chips, friendly and efficient service, nice big paper bags. Only downside is finding a blimmin parking space!

Never had a bad meal from here. The food is fresh, tasty and really reasonable and the staff are super friendly. Thoroughly recommended

We often head to Mc Donalds but always end up here.Not a long wait and food is just right . Fish is as freash as yoi would like it and chips are very tasty

This is an amazing place, great friendly service, fish is superb, halloumi burgers even better, burgers better than all burger bars in Hastings! Staff friendly and service great, boss is quality.

Athena's is a very modern takeaway, shows which vessels caught the fish. A large cod n chips is enough for two.Offers burgers, Does a light lunch. Also a gluten free day.

Really friendly staff food is amazing Live Bexhill If I’m going to have fish and chips this would be my first place to go lovely food

Popped into Athena’s when down in Bexhill-on-sea on a Saturday. Ordered Fish and chips and battered herby sausage and chips. Which we are on the seafront. Both of us agreed that this is probably the best fish and chip shop we’ve been to. Well worth the wait while the food is cooked to order.

Great freshly cooked fish and chips little bit of a wait but I suppose that’s ok as it’s cooked to order

Absolutely love this place when i go in to collect dont find the portions as good when ordered on line

Love the fish & chips here. Always fresh.

Cooked fresh and excellent quality. Will definitively return as they also have a loyalty card. It was recommended to me by a friend.

This is simply the best fish and chip shop in Bexhill. They only sell sustainable fish and takeaway packaging is biodegradable.

I use Athena's regularly and have never had a bad meal. The food is fresh, great quality and delicious. The staff are always friendly and knowledgeable; they offer gluten free once a month and all the staff know what is and isn't gluten free, sadly this can't be said for a lot of food places. Can't recommend enough

At last gluten free, fresh and not greasy totally amazing fish and chips. We have to drive past at least 3 fish n chips shops to get to Athenas and what a worthwhile trip it is. The food is fresh and absolutely delicious. How great are they to cook gluten free once a month Thank you for catering for the minority.

We've had food from Athena's many times and it's always amazing, today we had the new gyros (and lots of bits!) there are really tasty you can tell that Nick really cares about making top quality food.

Had fish and chips delivered to my house and it was amazing, it tasted so fresh and the batter was so light....it really felt like I had a super healthy meal.

I've eaten here several times and the food has been great everytime and the staff are very nice, welcoming and always smiling to their customers. Highly recommend.

Crispy chips that are soft in the middle and the most incredible silky soft mushy pea fritter in a crisp and light batter. Curry sauce reminded me of the one at McDonald’s, which is no bad thing. The first time o haven’t been disappointed with something from a fish and chip shop since I can remember. They usually smell and sound like a great idea but after three flaccid and greasy chips I realise I made a mistake. I wish I lived within a reasonable distance because there is nowhere like this in Birmingham or the surrounding area.

Sometimes I waffle in my reviews. No need here.

Fantastic meal deals and excellent value This is a Take Away so you don't sit inside and eat. Great value though

Incredibly good food. The shop is very nicely presented, as is the food. Very friendly staff and honestly the best fish and chips we’ve had for a very long time

Not quite your standard chippie--spotlessly clean, and fish clearly cooked to order, though maybe just a touch over-cooked, hence four rather than five stars. I haven't had many better recently and thoroughly recommend it.

Absolutely recommend this fish and chip shop. We ordered through a delivery website and for some reason it was cancelled. When we phoned the shop to ask what had gone wrong...we were told they would deliver our order free of charge because of the misunderstanding. When it arrived it was absolutely delicious. Have been going back ever since. Thoroughly recommend.

Had takeaway fish and chips last night for tea, huge portion sizes! Fantastic quality fish, can highly recommend, suspect we will be back again soon......

Used Athena's for takeaways at one time. Highly organised and efficient, the traceability of the food is nice to see and certainly of a good quality. However, there is rather an insidious feel of niche style vs substance that much more down to earth fish and chip outlets refreshingly somehow make you feel more at home at the same time as also maintaining good quality, cleanliness and friendly service

Whilst out in Bexhill we stopped for a traditional fish and chips, and was blown away by the fantastic quality of food. Every little detail was perfectly executed. This is a well thought out fish bar, I really liked all the information you can read about the fish and sources. Will visit again... has beaten Eastbourne fish and chips hands down!

have used Athena’s many times and have always had fantastic Fish & Chips, however we ordered via the telephone and had the worst Fish & Chips ever. In fact the delivery person told us that in future you will have to order via Just Eat, which made us wonder wether Athena’s actually cooked them. The Fish batter was really dark brown and the fish totally over cooked, it was like rubber, the chips were very poor and not the usual quality. All in all a very disappointing meal and will definitely not be ordering over the phone again.

Ordered takeaway to try the quality. Chose the offer with free side dishes of Mushy peas..clean and pleasant service, however was disappointed on the Mushy peas..very salty! The fish was a small portion and not fluffy batter...too much chips!

Visting family in Bexhill, I've heard plenty of positive things about Athena and I'm pleased to say they're all true! Delivery was within half an hour and the food was just perfect, not too greasy and every bit was eaten! All packaging is recyclable which made us pleased. Will definitely order again from here.

Agree with previous comments about the quality. We opted for the £4.50 meal deal of small cod and chips and even then there were too many chips for my better half. Great value.

Best takeaway fish n chips we can recall. Haddock cooked whilst we waited served with parsley and a lemon wedge. Light crispy batter. Generous chips.

Our granddaughter has to follow a strict gluten free diet and,although

If you choose to order a large piece of cod prepare yourself for a lot of lovely fish. It's tasty and perfectly made.

This fish & chip shop was recommended to us by a friend. My girlfiend likes her F&C; but stuggles to find anywhere to meet her exacting standards. Both the serice and food were great. Well done.

Wow the services is excellent and the food is wonderful and I will only go back to Athena`s NOW !!!!!!!

The batter is crispy and light and not greasy. The fish is cooked to order as well. Chips are also crispy and not greasy. Try the homemade tartar sauce. They display where the fish and potatoes have been sourced from. Try you won’t be disappointed. I believe they also deliver now.

Fabulous fish ..., light batter and a loin, delicious. Served with a slice of lemon and parsley. Chips freshly cooked, crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. Lovely service from the nice smiley girl on the counter. Best fish and chips in bexhill

What a brilliant fish and chip shop. Shows where everything is sourced and all fresh. The staff in the Athena are all quite young but don't let that put you off. The staff are exceptionally polite and helpful and we didn't have to wait too long for the order. Would use all the time now we have moved here.

We live locally in Bexhill and have started using this Fish & Chip shop for our Friday evening meal.You are served by a team of young, friendly & efficient staff.

Had this place recommended to me; not a great fan of fish & chips but had to try it. Haddock was tasty although sauces were not put in our bag. Nice fish n chips shop

We were on holiday in Bexhill from Holland, on our arrival it was raining, turned out to be a lovely week but that evening it was pouring down! We walked into town and fancied fish and chips. There were no tables in the restaurant but the friendly people let us sit and eat our fish and chips, they were delicious! We went back a second time whilst we were there, very good.

Good service, really really clean, and by and large really good food (although fish and chips should only be a treat, eh?). Good to see that they try to have a trail of where the fish has been caught. Recently, the flavour in the chips has dipped a little from the usual high standards, so not sure if there's been a change in type of potato used over the last year or so? Still amongst the best chippies in the area though.

I tried here as it had been recommended and also due to its constant good reviews; so it had a lot to live up to when I visited

We Had as a family the new gourmet chicken Butter milk burgers, they are THE BEST CHICKEN BURGERS we have EVER tasted!!! They were succulent, tasty, filling, well presented with lots of additional filling/sauce options, excellent value for money as they come with chips as a meal. We cannot recommend these beautiful burgers enough. Thank you nick for making us very happy customers!!!!

Phoned last night to place a collection order, was told you don’t do collection orders due to lack of parking which is fair enough but if I came in and ordered I’d be served quickly.

Walked in and there was a queue as to be expected on a Friday night. Asked for a meat pie and chips. The assistant was very rude and said "this is a fish and chip shop mate, we don't do pies"

My wife and I moved to Bexhill recently and have heard and read good things about Athena's, so today we gave it a try.

Now our new favourite fish and chip place in Bexhill. Excellent quality haddock, good size, great chips, good value

Had the most wonderful of takeaways from here this evening I felt compelled to write a review immediately!
