Black and White Fish and Chips Takeaway in North Devon

Friday night takeaway fish and chips from the Black and White is obviously an institution in Combe Martin and we had to queue. But it was worth it: really excellent cod, scampi and chips. And very friendly service. £45.30 paid for a feast for five.

We always come here when we visit Combe Martin. Very friendly and attentive staff, excellent service, generous portions and the chips are amazing. We usually have to queue because they’re so popular and busy but they’re very quick and it’s always worth the wait!

Popped in after a trip to the beach. Fantastic food chips were perfect . Chip shop was very busy being a Saturday night but was served in good time and by friendly staff thankyou it was scrumptious!!

Was driving through Combe Martin and saw this fantastic looking chip shop open. Parked up and ordered myself cod and chips , it was delicious.Best I’ve had in a long time and very generous with their portions. I will be back with the family .

Recommended to come here by a local while we were here on holiday. Told to come early as there may be a queue. He was right got there at 5.30 and there was a queue. But worth the wait, This was the best Fish & Chips me and my husband have had for a long time. Portion size was great, chips were so tasty, the batter on the fish was crispy and well cooked. We are here for another week so will be heading here a few more times we think.

Beautiful fish & chips with excellent efficient service. Rang ahead to order for 10 people which was no problem. Good value for money and very large fish. Highly recommend.

Absolutely delicious fish and chips, fish was crispy and the chips were freshly fried, the place was busy but was fast and really friendly service, it’s near the beach so a bit of queue but you know it’s good if you’re having to queue, highly recommended for LGBTQ+ travellers

This was one of the best fish and chips we've ever had! Just up from the beach, so we ate them and sat in the sand. Would highly reccomend!

Fish and chips, WOW best I've had in a long time. Well worth a visit, super friendly and amazing food thanks for my dinner. Per

best fish and chips ever, the fish was white and translucant , the batter was nice and crispy and the chips excellent

Well worth the wait. Fish was fresh and excellently cooked. Staff very friendly. Will definitely be back.

Been visiting the area for years and after trying most of chip shops always go to Black & White the best we have found in the area. Usually have them day we arrive and again on the evening, day before leaving. Freshly cooked and friendly staff.

Took an order in at lunchtime yesterday for nine people for collection at 18:30. Ready for about 18:40, great because we were all starving. Got it back to accommodation to find we were missing two large cod, a small fish and a large sausage. Wouldn't have been so bad if the chips were delicious but they really weren't so some very disappointed family members. Wouldn't use again

Evening we arrived in Coombe Martin we walked past the B & W and there was a queue up the road,always a good sign👍. Decided that Fish and Chips on the sea wall after sunset would be a good idea, it sooo was! Staff are super friendly and the food was excellent! Batter is to die for, light crispy and not at all greasy, chips the same,and the fish was mega! Quality chippie a stones throw from the sea. Definitely recommend!

Good service got food fairly fast Reason for 3 not 5 is I do not like the food chips mid everything else on the menu is not that good. Pails In compassion to the top chippy up the road just

Fabulous fish and chips. There was a queue outside so there was a short wait to be served but it was worth the wait. All of the staff were so polite and friendly, probably the most positive experience I have ever had in a fish and chip shop. The food was absolutely delicious, lovely and light batter and the large cod my husband had was huge! The chips were lovely and crispy and not at all soggy. We took our meal to the beach a short walk away and enjoyed eating it in the early evening sun.

Great chippy. Best fish and chips we have EVER had and after they were handed across the counter we strolled down to the beach to devour them. A 10 minute queue but very good natured. Staff focussed and not rude in any way despite other...

I phoned through with our order and pop down and picked up delicious fish and chips about 10 minutes later, I would thoroughly recommend them. very tasty, large portion of chips and enjoyable meal

Went to this fish and chip shop after looking at reviews online - wish we'd never bothered. A group of about 6 people were waiting outside for their order, we went inside to order and were the only ones in the shop. I was stood...

We had a fantastic fish and chip takeaway meal from this shop. The queue, halfway down the street, should have been the giveaway! Staff were efficient and friendly and fish was cooked to order, so as fresh as it could be. We found each element...

They say fish and chips by the sea are the best, Black and White are one of those (not all of them are!), really tasty, a light crispy fish batter, delish chips and a friendly service. Keep it up!

At most chippies, you expect a good meal for what you pay. Sometimes its the chips that were better, other times the fish was best, we have all been to such places on holidays. What made our visit stand out is that we could not...

We always have fish and chips on Thursday Nights when we are away and having been all over the country it is hard to judge each area as they all have their pro's and Con's Congratulations Black and White bot the Fish and the Chips...

Like many others have said the food is worth the queue! Beautiful chips and fish, the sausages and chicken nuggets are also delicious!

The fish was very good but the chips were basically inedible. They were dry, with sharp edges that hurt the palate and overall lacked the vibrancy of freshly cooked quality chips. I pointed out to the staff that the chips were inedible and substandard and...

Enjoyable fish and chips. Staff not particularly friendly and welcoming. Would return as food was good and fresh.

30 minute wait to find only 2 people taking orders very slowly and just chatting amongst themselves. The fish was fresh and tasted good but the chips were just awful we threw most away. The curry sauce was also warmed up in a microwave!

As you will read with most reviews, the queue is quite often very long and very slow. Despite this, and despite on our visit waiting 40 minutes outside, it's difficult to justify anything less than 5/5. ** To avoid the queue you can call ahead,...

Well worth the queue, fish, chips, mushy peas, battered sausage, all excellent. Ate here twice whilst staying in Combe Martin

Long queue to order, but we’ll worth the wait for excellent fish, chips and sauce. Highly recommended for a well priced meal

We ate here on the first night of our holiday and we were delighted to find that the fish and chips were as good as we remembered from our last holiday. There was a queue to get in but it was worth the wait.

Fabulous Fish and Chips. Fish was cooked perfectly in a delicious batter. Curry sauce was perfect and the chips were very tasty. Lovely happy staff. 🙂

Have just enjoyed fish and chips on the beach from Black and White ... delicious, Lovely crisp batter and huge portion of Chips, would definitely recommend!

Perfect lunch sitting on the beach wall! Freshly cooked and friendly service! Well worth it and a visit

Read the good reviews on here before my holiday in Combe Martin last week, so thought I would give this a try. Chips from holiday places are usually very good, but these were very poor. The texture of the chips were nothing like quality chips....

Stood outside in the pouring rain for 20 minutes to order fish and chips and wasn't disappointed by what I got, lovely fresh food and once I put my order in it was served up really quickly.

Went there yesterday grabbed pie and chips and wife had haddock and chips we then sat on the beach till sun went down , well worth a visit and reasonably priced aswell

Excellent fish and chips, great service and friendly people, this was reinforced by the huge queue outside waiting to be served.

Decided to try after all great reviews onTA. Really long wait - over 40 minutes and there were only 6 people ahead of me in queue. Can only assume they were dealing with phone orders first. Finally got order and raced back to eat ,...

We recommend all our guests to try fish and chips from Black&White as we know they won't be disappointed! Delicious everytime!!! Highly recommend!

Staying at sandaways holiday park, arriving Monday 7th meant I didn't want to cook. Found this place, oh my gosh so glad we did. Real chips (fresh potatoes), batter on the sausages and fish was so light. Literally bumped into a member of staff on...

Shocking customer service. Very Rude. Food ok. Ilfracombe had wonderful seafood and brilliant customer service. We went there after that.

We had 3 Haddock & Chips & 1 Cod & Chips. Really good, lovely light crispy batter & Fab chips . We would definitely go there again

We have been back here twice & the fish & chips are amazing!! Portions are big, batter light & crisp & perfect chips! Highly recommend - we ate ours whilst watching the sun go down on the beach - perfect.

Not bad at all. Good potatoes and fresh fish, well cooked. Three of us ate and three were pleased enough. An accommodating, efficient service, would definitely go again when in the area.

Be prepared to wait on Saturday evening but it is definitely worth it. All our food was prepared fresh, haddock was delicious, my wife and mother-in-law had burgers which were also lovely. The chips were also fresh and delicious.

Visited for a takeaway while staying nearby on holiday. As for the food, it was average, but what stood out more was an overheard conversation between a worker and a local customer. The conversation was in relation to the start of half term and how...

This place was recommended to me by the staff of Surfside Kayak hire (situated next to the café/restaurant)...and I'm so glad I tried it. Delicious fish & chips, friendly, courteous service, good portion size, and good value for money. I would highly recommend and will...

Very friendly staff even though very busy. Highly recommend the fish and chips and large portions. Was always busy when we went by and parking bit difficult so would pay you to go with someone else, couldn't park nearby had to go to the car...

We’re visiting on holiday to Devon and fancied some nice fresh fish and chips. Love the exterior of the shop and the shop itself was spotless. Staff were wearing masks which put us at ease. The chips were nice and chunky and cooked perfectly. The...

On a busy Monday evening this place served us 7 portions of haddock and chips in double quick time. The fish was very tasty and not at all dry, batter was crisp with no soggy bits. Chips were plentiful without wasting or wanting any, the...

Great fish and chips very accommodating despite it being late when arriving as they were just about to close! Which was a god send since we’d just arrived in the village after travelling 200 miles!! Great food all with super service with a friendly attitude,...

Really fab chips tasted fantastic best chips I have ever eaten polite staff Covid safe in the middle of the town would highly recommend

Amazing - everything is fabulous. Perfect chips. Crispy on the outside fluffy in the middle. Fish was also good, batter is spot on. I love fish and chips and I love the Black and White. Big queue but they also work like billi-yo in there...

My fav fish and chip shop. Look forward to visiting every year while on holiday. Never disappointed. Lovely fresh and crispy chippies and lovely crunchy and flaky cod. Huge portions as always and a very fair price. Never had a portion that was over greasy...

When in Rome etc, so when at the seaside, it's gotta be fish & chips followed by ice cream, (Devon Cream) and the Black and White is just about as good as it gets. A whopping piece of Haddock and enough chips for two. Sat...

Visited whilst staying in Combe Martin. Very nice food, chap serving was very polite and shop perfectly situated. Fish was fresh & cooked to order - though was visiting in early October (Outside peak). Definitely recommend. Note. Full covid procedure in place.

Excellent fish and chips, friendly service, had twice whilst on weeks holiday in combe Martin , had to queue to order, but worth the wait!

Got here just before closing. The fish was amazing, the chips were delicious. We asked for some scraps which he happily threw in, which were amazingly delicious. The fish was cooked perfectly, very soft, flaky and fresh. The batter was perfect. Good value for money...

I really enjoyed my fish and chips! I chose to the have the Haddock and chips, a few days prior I had a margarita pizza was was amazing to! Even had tomato stuffed crust

Popped in here for some fish and chips. Although due to covid restrictions and people queuing the wait was worth it. Took our haddock and chips and sat on the beach (thankfully had stopped drizzling). Really tasty and fresh fish and proper chippy chips. Batter...

Last minute just before they shut but still sorted us out with some brilliant food. The food tasted fresh and was fantastic. It was only after having this that you realise that other fish and chip shops aren’t as good as you thought.

We used this chippy as it was fairly close to our accomodation and didn't mind the que; as it was peak time. However, they leave the skin on the fish; which some people may like, but not for us I'm afraid. The chips were also rather greasy and unappetizing. There is another chippy in Combe Martin(see our review)which we found to be immeasurably better.

Absolutely delicious fish and chips! We visited twice on our holiday in Combe Martin, on the first night (Saturday) we qued for around 45 minutes for the fish and chips. We visited again on a Thursday and was straight in and out. We tried cod & haddock both of which was very nice!

After a couple of hours on the beach we decided to pop up the road to have fish and chips for lunch. The service was friendly and Covid safe. We waited for a few minutes outside for our order to be ready and after reading previous reviews couldn't wait to tuck in. Unfortunately we were disappointed to find the meal was tasteless and the batter was greasy on the top and soggy and mushy underneath. If we visit the area again we will try somewhere else.

Came here during family summer holiday. Very well organised with regards to COVID guidelines. All food is cooked fresh and portion sizes are very generous. Little on the expensive side but you expect that from a chip shop on the coast and don't mind paying it for quality food. Will return when next in the area.

Expensive but well worth it. Large portions. Very busy but well organised and more so with VOVID restrictions.

We picked up fish, scampi and chips from here and it was really nice. Unfortunately they don't do a pea fritter so had mushy peas instead.

Great fish and chips friendly staff and quick service had to wait due to Covid but everything was piping hot

Ordered a variety of meals with chips including fish, pie and sausage. All were excellent but the chips were the highlight. Really well done in an oil that gives them a bit of crispness. Would not hesitate to visit again.

Always good here, cant believe the pathetic people that write a bad review to a local business during difficult times, cannot heat up baby food for a reason, there are 3 good chippys in north devon, this, the pelican and the one one by the old Tescos in town.

Fish was lovely and best chips I’ve tasted for a long time so much so we went there twice and would certainly go again when we return

Great fish and chips, served virtually straight away. Chips particularly good. We visited Devon and Combe Martin on the 13th July soon after some of the lock down restrictions were lifted. Because there were so few people it felt like May rather than July

Took my cash for fish and chips then refused to warm up baby food saying they had to touch it. Another local shop did it without question. Not good fish / chips either and expensive avoid.

Best fish and chips I’ve had in years. The whole family loved everything we ordered. And very welcoming too.

Expect a wait in busy times but well worth the wait as food is lovely and tastes devine. It's a good place to eat for all your takeaway needs.

Worst chippy in Devon Rude staff cannot count that’s why maybe they have aspired to work in a chippy. Warning watch the social distancing they cannot count how many customers are in the shop mind you not surprised they cannot count. Food was greasy and all left over batter left me with a bad stomach shop around. Returning customers get priority over new customers be prepared for a long wait if you decide to buy from here

Title says it all. Has become a ritual whenever we arrive annually to Combe Martin to get our first nights grub from here. absolutely Banging!

Lovely fresh fish and chips with curry sauces, tasty and plentiful! Queuing outside always a good sign!

Just went to order dinner was left standing for 10 minutes for the man to then let someone else into the shop to take their order. Was ignored the whole time. Only was it when the young boy pulled him to one side to say I was first and been waiting 10 minutes for my order to be taken did he then reluctantly come over and say what do you want rudely. Maybe because I'm not a local he thinks its acceptable. Rude and nasty definitely wont be going in there again.

Cannot go wrong with the Black & White Chippy in Combe Martin. Very good size portions for exceptionally reasonable prices. The qualtiy of the Fish & Chips is the best in North Devon, but unlike many others they do not crow about it. Definately worh a visit.

Popped in here recently and as fish and chips go you can't go wrong. Friendly staff, big portions and a lush Cornish pastie. Definitely recommend if you fancy chips in the area.

Great fish and chips with fantastic friendly service. Will be back! Can’t recommend the place enough

Called in while on holiday in Combe Martin with family. Lovely staff excellent customer service. Haddock and Cod tasted as it should-with nice crispy batter .Large fish £5.50 packaged well. Will be back next time we are here.

The food was fantastic and plentiful and cooked to order. We cannot complain about anything at all! Fish and chips with a sea view!

Whilst on holiday we decided to have fish and chips one night. We ordered a large cod and small place with large chips that we shared. The food was cooked to perfection and very tasty, which was good valve for money. I would recommend this fish and chip shop.

We stopped off here last week for fish and chips, we both had haddock and chips. The fish was the best we have had in a chip shop. Very crispy batter and a huge portion, so well cooked. Very friendly staff, so glad we called in

Good fresh fish and chip shop .friendly Staff .the locals praise them for quality and value.try the rock salmon.

This is a fantastic little chip shop. Everything fresh and piping hot and the price was great. All added up correct and very friendly device. Even aloud me to leave the wife as a deposit while I wentvand got cash out when the card machine was down. So good we went twice.

there was a long queue when we arrive but the service was fast & the staff pleasant Fish was Bigger than average & the Chip portions were ample & both very tasty

Great fish and chips,great value and good service ,next to no waiting.Cooked fresh to order.Friendly atmosphere

Lovley little chippy we visited on hoilday. Would recommend !! We visited twise on our trip. Please never change. Like stepping back in time.

I called in at the Black and White, early evening, for my takeaway dinner. Just a modest fish cake and chips. I have not tasted such lovely, hot chips in a long time! The fish cake also was delicious, and such a warm welcome from staff

Very good food and good service always a shot wait in the high season. We have never been disappointed.

We stopped off here on our way home. I was the best fish and chips I have ever eaten. The fish was fresh and the batter light and crisp. I only usually eat the crispy ends but ate the lot. Well done

This was our second visit to the black and white chippy

We come here every year on our annual holiday, and have not once been disappointed. Last nights food was delightful. Lovely crispy fish and chips, large portions, and not a bad price at all. There was a large queue out the door, even at 5:30pm. Would highly recommend. Already looking forward to next year.

Popped here on our first day and wasnt disappointed, the cod and chips were delicious. Friendly staff, clean inside and really good value for money! We sat and ate our food on the beach watching the raft race which was good fun.

We enjoyed a really good take away from this fish and chip shop whilst on holiday. The menu was really good and there was just the right amount of variety. Fast service and reasonably priced. Would highly recommend.

Again we had the urge to experience a great style of English eating. Great service and value. And easy to find and park the car closely.
