Big Fish in Hastings

My new favourite! And that's saying a lot in a town full of chips shops. Fresh fish and chips so tasty no salt and vinegar required. Fish not greasy, chips crunchy.

Really not good. The chips were soggy with grease and the batter was undercooked.

Friendly staff and usually great chips. Have had to edit my review as over the past 3 or 4 visits the quality of the chips has dropped. Now seem thinly cut and over cooked. A shame really . Since my last report I'm afraid the last of portion of chips have dropped in quality, smaller and over or undercooked. This. Has happened since a new member of staff joined so won't use them again.

This fish and chip shop is genuinely one of the best in the area, in my opinion. Definitely best chips properly made!

Just ordered via delivery service and was awful . Chips not cooked and wishy washy batter . Second time in 4 weeks it's been unsatisfactory and definitely their last chance . Have been using for 15 years and i can only think they must have changed hands . The large cod used be enormous and crispy and the chips well cooked . Proprietor- if your reading this you need to raise your game . I , for one , will move on ...

Food came within the time allotted. It was cooked right and tasted nice, I will be using this chippy again

The best fish & chips, beautifully cooked

cooked to perfection and thoroughly enjoyed it

Sadly the fish was extremely poor quality, very little cod inside the batter and even less plaice so I’m afraid it’s a no from us

I always order from here as its always nice, and the portion size was always good, this time the box was sooo much smaller and the fish was small, I was really surprised and its expensive for what you get now. Won't be ordering again even though its nice .

Not as nice as usual, fish was overcooked and quite dry, this is unusual for the big fish.

Stunning chips as always. Fresh and delicious

Tasty fish,lovely crispy batter and great chips.

Used big fish when our local chippy wasn't delivering, and will definitely use again. Generous portions, cooked well, beautiful Chucky chips! Strongly recommend!

Very disappointed, savaloy's not cooked , majority of the large and small chips ordered were not the best and the pies weren't particularly hot. I most DEFINITELY WILL NOT RECOMMEND Refund was requested.

Only place I've found where the fish is never overcooked and remains succulent with a nice light batter.The portion size is large as well.Been using this place for last 2 years with no complaints.

best around and ive tried most

Lovely cod and chips. I think they are the best in town

The best cod and chips we have had in a long time, Fresh, juicy and crispy. We will definatley be visiting again.

Food was ok . But looking around, not the most cleanest of a food out let . I won’t be returning..

Great food. Good portion size. Great service

The best fish and chips in St.Leonards and hastings. Very tasty . Highly recommended.

Fish appeared to have been reheated from earlier on in the day, very disappointed as normally nice from here

Delicious freshly made food, big portions, good service, affordable prices, nice chat. Recommended warmly.

Food was very nice but could have been a bit hotter but I do appreciate that we are about 15 mins from the shop

First time I have ordered but these were certainly the best fish and chips I have had for years. Not at all greasy and the fish batter so light. The chips were lovely and crisp. The regular portion size of chips are plenty for two. I will definitely be ordering again.

Very greasy cod and chips were not great this evening. Very disappointed

Best takeaway fish n chips in town.

Burger was big and tasty, Fish was fresh there was not too much batter just right, the chips was very freshly cooked, first time of using this Fish & chip shop, would recommend it. I will be using it again

Friendly and helpful service. Generous portions of tasty fish in a light, almost tempura batter. The chips are first class - crispy outside and fluffy in the middle. Reasonable prices too, our weekly fish and chips for three costs £2 less than at The Kingfisher or Deep Blue.

Excellent fish and chips. Not too greasy. Kust right. Yummy

Food was lovely and hot, definitely the best fish and chips we've had for a while

Great place! Family run. Big size portions and good quality. Definitely recommend.

Best fish in chips in Hastings by far . Good size of chips and very good fresh fish Very friendly and welcoming

Tbh this gotta be the best chippy in hastings

The Fish & Chips I have tried in Hastings. Great customer service. Thank you guys. More power

Had been told that they sold proper old school spam fritters, was not disappointed absolutely mega. Portions won't leave much room for pudding

Absolutely amazing fish and chips, beautiful batter cooked to perfection and really tasty hot chips. Children enjoyed their spam fritter and sausage aswell.

Excellent food and delivery one time

If it’s not broke don’t fix it

Fish and chips as tasty as always, however, fish was half the size it normally is and prices have gone up. Won’t bother ordering again…. Way to expensive to get half what I’ve had before for less. Disappointed!

Well cooked, delicious, hot and fresh every time

First time using this takeaway, was recommend and it was fantastic! Arrived early, super hot, very fresh and crispy, delightful! Will order again.. thank you

Very good happy with it thanks

Really impressed with the quality of the food will definitely be ordering again

Good size portions, lovely batter, zero complaints, will use again if we’re in the area!

driver was driving up and down the road despite having the full address

Delivered all the way to Bexhill and still piping hot and crispy - delicious and good portions

Fast Delivery! Very Nice! Perfect!

The staff were rude to my face and to top it off they missed a whole meal leaving one of us without a dinner. Will definitely not be going again.

Burger looked and tasted horrible Chips soggy Curry sauce cold

Completely wrong order delivered

Chips were the best I’ve had in ages!! Fish was delicious too. Will definitely be ordering again!

After living in St. Leonards for 3 years last night we found the best fish and chips, having tried quite a few, none of the others compete. The fish was beautifully cooked in wonderful light batter and still very hot when it arrived. The chips were also excellent and just enough for the 2 of us. Only comment is why can't we order directly. Will continue to use Big fish from now on. We had huss (rock salmon).

Great Fish and Chips - The cod was delicious; flaky, not too oily and batter was crisp. The portion was very generous also. The chips were also very nice again well cooked, not overly greasy and came in abundance! Overall, a great Friday night fish supper!

Always used a different f&c shop previously but it was closed so ordered from here. So glad we did, this will be our new favourite. Food was so tasty. Portions were generous.

Anytime I come from London I go straight to Big Fish. Just simply love it.

Lovely fresh and tender fish, amazing taste, amazing price!!! Fast and kind stuff. Chips are delicious. NO rear bearnt fat. Just luvely🫶

Food great again, didn't like the fact delivery driver dumped my food on the door step and went off. But food no issues 👍

Fantastic all round. Hot, well cooked. Generous portioning. Best ever curry sauce!

Just the best fish and chips in Hastings food was hot delicious and on time

Best fish and chips in the town great service plenty of it and arrived within 30 mins of ordering excellent service 👍👍

Used to be our fav place - foods nice but price gone up and portions LOADS smaller than it used to be we got a large chips which was the same size as our kids meal portion …. It was Tiny - really disappointed + delivery took a long time

Probably a good idea to at least give a slice of lemon and some tartare sauce. Maybe even some vinegar for the chips😉

Great delivery & decent portion of crispy cod & chips, spot on cheers

Our favourite F&C place in town. Fish cooked especially for you, rarely overcooked. Chips excellent. Staff great too.

Th sausage didn't even taste like sausage it was mushy and the chips were disgusting. Will never order from here again

Website says open till 10pm on a Thursday, but shop was already closed by 9pm. No service provided during advertised opening hours hence 1 star given. I could understand if we still had covid restrictions but they ended 6 months ago. If you are going to run a business than at least attempt to provide a service during stated opening hours.

Beautiful xx hot and delicious

Great fish and chips, great service

Wanted large cod a d chips,and that is what I got,good job!

Chips were lovely and even the batter was perfectly cooked and crispy...but unfortunately on this occasion the cod itself seemed thin, mushy and tasteless! Wasn't flakey and tasty.....may have been the fish on the day so I will order from Big Fish again!

Absolutely perfect. Will definately order again

We have always been more than pleased with the food from this fish and chip shop, it’s been fresh and crispy when received. But tonight it was awful. The food tasted as though it had been sitting around and reheated. We were so disappointed. Sorry big fish !

Love this place. Best fish in town!!

all good as usual but 2 x pickled eggs missing

Bloody awful, but the seagulls liked it. The sausages were cheap and nasty, the fish was tasteless. £25 later and up set stomachs !!!

Great tasting food, delivery on time, polite driver, a seamless order with no problems. Would recommend.

Chips werent the best lukewarm. Sausages were cold last couple of orders have not been great

Hot,tasty and well cooked would recommend them,unlike 1066 fish who tried to blame just eat for their over cooked meal. GO BIG GO BIG FISH 🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟

Usually my food from Big Fish is hot when it gets to me but tonight it was luke warm and wet with condensation. The piece of fish I had wasn’t the usual standard I receive. Disappointing.

Great quality food and very filling.

Chips were lovely and hot Sausages were too fast delivery excellent

Drinks was out of date by a year and one was a diet coke which could have been super lethal and could kill someone due to the artificial sweeteners being out of date and can cause serious harm to someone. THEY NEED TO GET SHUT DOWN IF THIS CONTINUES

Well cooked as always. Bought a regular portion which was more than generous. The only slight negative is that the food wasn’t very hot on delivery. But it’s easy enough to chuck it in the microwave.

Good quality food that arrived hot delivered with a smile and friendly chat. One star on restaurant service because food was delivered so we didn’t use restaurant and this form wouldn’t complete without it. Would certainly use again.

Well that was fabulous fish and chips amazing portions......thank you

The food was hot tasted gorgeous especially the chips. Delivery driver was good as well

Since the last time I was there this place has improved dramatically. Very nice chips this time round. Spam fritters are highly recommend

we placed an order for a large haddock fish. We got 2 small fish instead of 1 large one, 1 fresh and the other dry, old and not to eat. I'm not happy, the food was terrible and we didn't eat. Best regards Aneta and Steve

Friendly staff, fish and chips okay, needs a clean, the light house in ore is much better

Fantastic fish, good size portions hot and bang on time

Delivery driver was rude and blamed me for her not being able to find my address and she had her children in the car

Excellent fish and chips and jumbo sausage yummy

Great food, generous portions, lovely service and fast delivery. Incredibly polite young delivery lad made my night.

The best Fish and Chip shop in St Leonards by a long way. The portions are Big they dont cheat on the chips or the fish. And reasonable prices. You won't go hungry in fact you will struggle to eat it all if you order large fish and chips. And they taste delicious 😋 Its not called the "BIG FISH" for nothing.

Had rock & chips from here cannot complain it was lovely, they took my order by phone & I picked it up at the time they gave me with no waiting & it was all fresh,Lovely 👍

Excellent fish & chips and good price. I thoroughly recommend them.

It's good, it's quick and they have pies for sale and we love pie.. lol
