Caspian Sea Fish Bar in Havering

We used to order from Caspians regularly but tonight’s now going to be the last time. It’s slowly gone down hill, I don’t know if it’s because we have it delivered by justeat they think it’s ok to send inedible food or if it’s what everyone’s served. You aren’t guaranteed to have all items you have ordered delivered to start with, tonight the mince beef and onion pie was missing, you call them and it’s the “they aren’t our drivers there’s nothing we can do” well correct me if I’m wrong but the drivers don’t pack the food do they?! So it’s not down to the drivers that items are missing in this case. My partner asked them why have the standard of the chips gone down? The response from the shop was “Get your chips elsewhere” - say no more Caspians, that’s exactly what we will do going forward and of course we will inform everyone that maybe they should try that too if they want something edible. The sausage in batters were dripping in grease. The mince beef and onion pie - which I was taking a chance on tonight because before it tasted like it was made in 1845 and left sat there didn’t even turn up - probably a blessing in disguise to be honest with the state of the chips. The chips medium portions are the same as the small portions that I ordered no size difference. Majority had to be binned because they were either green, black inside, had growths on them, were rock hard and in general just not edible. I do not recommend Caspians anymore, dirty stale chips (I’ve attached a photo and that’s not even showing the full extent) that are either inedible or taste like mud, so much grease on the cod bites, sausage in batters (pink inside) and fish cakes that it was nausea inducing for the kids - who usually eat anything, missing items from order and rude staff, all in all expensive rubbish! No thank you to wasting anymore money. So yes we will take the shops fantastic customer service advice that they gave my partner and get our fish and chips from elsewhere! I can if anyone else is interested recommend Chippers fish bar if that helps others at all.

Picked up a couple of regular lamb donors, best donor I have had for years, service was quick and polite even though they were busy, salad was lovely and fresh but best of all the lamb was not too greasy which meant the pitta bread stayed dry. Thank you 👍

I’ve eaten from this place before and for the first time last Saturday 3/5/25 I ordered something I’ve never ordered from there before but ate from other fish and chip shops and that was chicken shish wrap first bite it was very rubbery I decided to stop and cut the wrap open to my shock chicken was raw inside I’ve since been prescribed antibiotics by my doctor for food poisoning and still have symptoms of this 6 days later Avoid at all cost I’ll be taking this store to trading standards so nobody else gets as ill as I’ve been from eating food from here never again will I order or recommend this place to anyone again

This lamb doner kebab really hit the spot. The meat was tender and full of flavor, with a nice mix of creamy garlic and spicy chili sauces on top. The bread was soft and held everything together well. The side salad added a fresh crunch, and the pickled pepper gave it a nice little kick. It’s a solid portion too—definitely enough to fill you up. Nothing fancy, just a proper, tasty kebab that does exactly what you want it to. Definitely would recommend

Ordered 1 portion of chips, mix kebab and halloumi wrap. Total £25.10 The meat was dry and burnt, salad well past its best, chips were a bag of oily scraps and the halloumi was deep Fried so don’t understand why they have a grill. Really disappointed in the food as had some hope after reading the reviews

Great takeaway and service every time

Lovely good tasting food even on a busy good friday

chips missing from meal and burger came a burnt mess in box

Food arrived on time. Was hot and tasty

Excellent Fish and chips as usual. Highly recommended!!

Best fish and chips in the area.

The ‘10-25 minutes’ delivery estimate was way off, and then when the food did turn up it was lukewarm at best. Chips were mushy, cod roe greasy. Not good

Disappointing. Partly my fault l ordered wrong item. However l didn’t taste any vinegar and hardly any salt. Taste and appearance of meat not to my liking and garlic sauce too, l didn't like.

I have ordered from here a number of times and it's usually the best however sadly tonight the food wasn't great. the food was stale and the cod roe was squshed and soggy in a bag and the curry sauce was watery. its a shame as iv wasted £18. and was really looking forward to it. maybe next time will be better.

Was hot and lovely highly recommend

The food was great and the customer service of the store was 10/10. The driver messed up my order first time round but Caspian went out of their way to make sure my second order reached me and also gave extra bits. Thank you caspian!

Food is always FRESH!! That’s the best thing! Love it!

Cod and chips were absolutely delicious

Guess they were busy because delivery time kept increasing but received within 30mins of placing order. All good.

Great food, large quantity & fast delivery

Excellent quality Fish & Chips

I recently visited this fish and chip takeaway, and it was absolutely worth the trip from Stratford! From the moment I walked in, I could tell this place takes pride in serving top-quality food. The fish was golden, crispy, and cooked to perfection, while the chips were fresh, hot, and had just the right amount of crunch. Nothing was soggy or overcooked—everything was made fresh to order, which really sets this place apart. What made me choose this takeaway were the glowing reviews, and I can confidently say they lived up to the hype. My kids loved every bite, and it’s rare to find a spot where everyone in the family is satisfied. The portion sizes were generous, and you could tell the ingredients were fresh. It’s not just about the food—the service was friendly, and they really seem to care about their customers. I hope they keep up this level of quality because places like this deserve all the success. If you’re looking for proper fish and chips done right, this is the place to go. I’ll definitely be coming back, and I recommend it to anyone who appreciates good, fresh, and perfectly cooked fish and chips!

The cod was nice and crispy but the chips were terrible, mostly small scraps and not good!!

Lovely burgers with a choice of toppings

a bit surprised that the burger didn't come with salad or other filling. if I was supposed to choose filling, I must have missed it. also the chips were cold. fish very nice and a good size.

Nice food - delivered at the time specified after 5 minutes was added during the prep.

Mushy peas needed to be more mushed but otherwise great.

Comida recién cocinada, el pescado es excepcional. El personal es educado, amable y un grupo encantador. ¡No iría a ninguna otra parte!

Apart from the food was delicious it was hot when arrived best food delivery I've had

Ordered through uber eats, sadly my burger was missing (likely uber eats fault). I called the shop and explained the situation. They kindly agreed to prepare another burger for me. When I arrived at the shop to collect, they even offered me some chips on the house for my troubles. Good food, good people. Important to support small local businesses like this

Apart from the missing curry sauce on my order the food was really good

Cold fish not like usual unfortunately

The best fish n chips around. Thank you

Our go to chippy , lovely food !

The food was ok but very greasy

The kebab and chips are always really nice.

Very tasty and good value for money.

the portions are for kids for the price I paid it wasn't filling at all I've paid l3ss in alot of places and had more food

Donner wrap was barley warm but everything else was good

Forgot to order a gerkin with my order, called up to ask them if we could pay for it cash and they just added lne for free, thank you

Food arrived quickly. BONUS. Unfortunately the chips were just warm and the saveloy was not only cold (as I bit into it) it was full of water and lacking flavor. As it was my first order with them, thought I'd pop it into the air fryer....nope. absolutely disgusting (I know they are full of rubbish anyway but this was gross). Thought I'd feed back to them. The staff just listened and said absolutely nothing. No customer service at all, not even a sorry. I didn't even want anything back, just an acknowledgement of their poor quality. Nothing. Could not have been more dissatisfied.

Yum first time I’ve tried here and safe to say I’m impressed. Best fish and chips in Romford hands down

Delivery good but item missing from order.

chips luke warm and pie was frozen

The cod was lovely, but the chips could of been beta, seemed as they had been sitting around in the box for a while.

The food was dripping with oil. When i opened it the oil dripped on my clothes. Normally the food is good here. But this time the quality was bad. Swmming in oil.

Had large cod which must of been on a diet before it was caught hardly no fish at all

Food was delicious, but more importantly the server in the shop was so lovely. There was an elderly lady in there who seemed to be quite vulnerable. He sat and chatted with her for at least 20 mins when I was in there. Gave her food/drinks, helped her open her ice lolly. Was so refreshing to see a young man being so kind to the elderly, I’m unsure of his name but he had a lot of tattoos and a bun!! If you see this your kindness doesn’t go unnoticed!! :)

One of the two medium cod ordered was replaced by two small cod, which seem to have been left in the warm store too long as they both had hard batter and the fish inside both of them was dry and tasteless so most of it ended up in the bin

Excellent service. Food exceptional. Thank you

The quality has gone down. The portions have shrunk and are not consistent each time. I’ve just gone on to order again for easiness and now the sausage and batter meal has gone up again to £7 it doesnt warrant that cost at all u barely get any chips

Fish was awful it was dry and smelt but not of fish under the batter the fish was brown and dry only fit for the bin so disapointed would not order from them again

Amazing food delivered bang on time - couldn't be happier!

delivery was quick and food was hot, kebab meat was nice (lamb doner and lamb shish) and portion sizes were ok. unfortunately a portion of chips was missed which I had to go and pick up as they didn't have a driver to send it out. some of the chips were undercooked, cucumber in the salad was slimy and yellow. bit expensive compared to our usual place but we tried it out because there was a discount offered.

Nice food and huge portions. However, it could be nicer if the chips were cooked for a bit longer and there weren't so many small potato ends

Delivery time kept increasing by 5mins for 30mins. Arrived securely packed and delivered (heat) hot. Food although good not up to usual excellent standard.

first time certainly won't be the last. fish was lovely, batter thin and crispy. excellent, well done 👍

I like that they do a small portion of cod & chips for £6 all day every day

My large Cod was piping hot, batter was light and crispy and the inside was fresh and delicious. Medium chips portion was a decent size but the overall quality of the chips were very average.

that was the best fish and chips I have had ever...in this area...highly recommend..

Gorgeous hot food and no grease!

Been a few times,hoped the chips would have some potato as got more crispy bits than chip not great portion either. Pies nice though.

Very fresh cod and delivered piping hot. Excellent quality and would thoroughly recommend. Thanks!!

As is usual, appropriately packed, received everything l ordered, properly cooked and hot.

Good quality and good value and good delivery 5*

Best fish bar around, batter on the fish is lovely and thin and not greasy, delivered piping hot

Such a shame I don’t like leaving bad reviews as food here is nice but my order was ruined tonight I ordered a mixed shish with garlic sauce and it had chilli sauce all over it I couldn’t eat the kebab I was able to eat the chips

Lovely fish and chips probably the best I’ve tried in Romford got it delivered off Uber eats and food come hot fish was still crispy and there curry sauce was good definitely will return

Tasty cod 'n' chips arrived hot and on time.👍

Wrong sauce in donor roll, hot chilli instead of garlic mayo, unfortunately made it inedible, also missing pot of burger sauce

Fantastic food - unbeatable value!

Normally really good but the sausage this time was almost like rubber in the middle, off putting

Food was absolutely lovely as always! Had small cod and chips was perfect.

Ordered a mini cod and chips for £8.00. Was cold and horrible . Gave me around 13 chips and the cod with batter was shaped in a circle with minimal fish . Waste of money and very disappointed. How can I get a refund ?

Good well cooked tasty and flavourful food

Possibly the worst fish and chips I’ve tasted

The food was delicious as usual the batter really crisp just a little on the cold side as a delayed delivery but looking at the map I wonder if the delivery driver did another drop off before us but still edible

always great food from caspian sea

Very good service very polite food hot

I have been coming to caspian since i moved to Romford, amazing staff always on point with food, its nice to have a conversation while i wait for food. When i see they are busy and i placed my order i have no issue waiting as it allows them to have ease when preparing, nothing wrong with having patience. I do recommend this place as you won't be disappointed with service, food and general atmosphere. Kind regards, Nadim

Fish was hot & crispy. Very good order.

Food is great. Poor customer service from the 2 women (one older and one younger) who work there. You get attitude from them just for asking questions. For this reason I would never go back there.

This is my favourite fish & chip shop in the area! Amazing food, especially the chips.

The food arrived hot and fresh. All of it was delicious. The cod was extremely tasty and the children loved the cod bites.

This is by far one of the best fish and chip shops around here! Although we found the lamb doner wrap extremely greasy this time! It’s usually absolutely amazing!

Food was cold, chicken wings were dry and keebab was overpriced for what it was

I placed an order online and forgot to order the curry sauce.I phoned Caspian to see if I could get this added to the order and pay in cash .I was told this could not be done.When the order arrived there was a pot of curry sauce with a smiley face.What a lovely gesture, my new favourite chippy in Romford.Will definitely be order again.The fish and chips and chicken was amazing. Thank you !

I order doner kebeb without onion but receiver with planty of onion, big minus for salad , and kebab arrived cold only two star I give....

If we had received the cod might have been 5 stars! Its just annoying when one person doesnt get their food and you cant re-order the missing item without paying delivery again.

ordered with chilli sauce and extra chilli sauce, even states this on receipt. delivered smothered in some sort of mayonnaise. only fit for the bin, total waste of money.

Chips clearly the last ones and the fish was more batter than anything. Rubbish

Fish was dried out and chips were obviously the end of the pile - hard crispy with minimal potato - very poor show today

Nice thin batter, piping hot, delivered on time

Food is amazing burgers perfect chips hot and fresh

2 medium cod arrived red hot freshly cooked beautiful food, would not order from anywhere else chips are very good also

10/10 food was piping hot and fresh.

I have lived in Romford all my life and have never found a good fish & chip shop. I ordered from Caspians first time today, regret not doing it earlier!!! Best fish & chips in Romford! Food was fresh and amazingly tasty. My new fav fish & chip shop which il be ordering from going forward!

Portion small chips hard and cold onion rings over cooked cold I live round corner next time I’ll go to the shop

Due to time taken to deliver food was tepid, chios had become soggy, fish appeared to be overcooked and was dry and hard around the edges

Really excellent fish and chips! Highly recommended.
