Castle Fish Bar in Dover

The staff particully michelle is always so polite and very helpful

Always good quality fish and chips. Great spam fritters too. Generous portions, top quality and reasonable for these days prices!

Always excellent, freshly cooked and served up by friendly people. Wonderful for local community who take it home or can enjoy it in the nearby Freed Man micropub.

Good quality, fair price, freshly cooked.

Very nice cosy chip shop. My fish was made fresh for my order which is a very good sign. My only advise them to change the chips or cook it a bit longer. Their curry sauce is phenomenal. Fish was piping hot as well as chips. Batter was well balanced and light but tasty enough.

5th time of coming here. Food is really good. It would be great if the servers could actually stop their own conversation for a moment and listen to the customers. Had to stand outside and wait as the customer area is ridiculous. I know many chip shops have a corridor waiting area but with one door in front of the counter there is little room to move or get by and no understanding of the queing system. Between the busy road noise and the noise generated by the shop you can’t hear them call you. Was offered salt & vinegar and the fish gets smothered and the chips get nothing, dare not interrupt the never ending staff conversation. This has been the same on 5 occasions, if it’s busy just avoid as it’s a stressful place

Very very Nice place and the workers are the Best!!! So humble I’ll undoubtedly repeat it when I’m back from Spain! Best Fish & Chips place in all deal 💪

Fantastic fish and chips. I always go to this place, and I live 20 minutes away.

Lots of chatting between the 4 staff members, but chaotic service. 1 couple had phoned in their order, when they arrived the staff didn’t have the order, I ordered a sausage and chips, shouldn’t be a problem right, but after sitting there waiting for 20 minutes I thought I’d better ask, only to be told your order didn’t print out…..I said forget it and keep the money, hopefully it’ll be used to train the staff….or just go down to a proper chip shop and watch how to do it.

Very friendly and good service, o and lovely food! Still exceptional.

Really delicious fish and chips and very friendly service. Could have done with some more generous salt and vinegar but otherwise fantastic

Very busy. The burger and cod were both great. The chips however were unrecognisable. More like mushy chips. Both days in a row. That was not acceptable.

Atrocious food too wet and soggy to actually eat (Even when my sister didn't have any "Toppings"(Tomato sauce Mayo Etc)) .Never go there especially if you live nearby. It is horrible.

This is the best fish and chip shops in Area you just can't beat the fresh ness of food , service is great . Won't go anywhere else when in down in area

Excellent fish and chips would recommend.

Lovely fish and chips reasonable priced

Very friendly and professional person stuff. Fish and chips are delicious. I won’t go for pickled egg again “not my taste” In the meantime before your order is ready you can walk down the street to the local shop for some extra stuff “if you camping 🏕️ for example” we had a jar of pickles 🥒 and tartar” as we was five of us it comes out more cheaper than buying from the fish and chips shop. Overall happy with the experience! Overall good stuff good food and ok prices.

After a long day walking from Deal to Walmer going to each castle, me and my partner needed some food. Looked on Google maps for fish and chips and found this place close to the train station. The staff were amazing. Food was cooking whilst we chatted to the staff about how our day was. They said we could eat our chips next door but we were just cream crackered and just headed for the train station to much some chips and saveloy. We are planning a trip back to Walmer next month, so these chips are a must have after another long day.

A* for this place. Never had a bad service or food. Always generously portioned. Fish is to die for, always crispy and not greasy! Best one in Deal

Cannot recommend this place enough. We use Castle Fish Bar about once a month. It isn’t hit and miss, every single time it’s been fantastic. When recently there was a minor mixup issue, the customer service was 2nd to none and very appreciated. At no point have we ever had an issue with the food produced here. Highly recommend.

The castle fish bar serves the best fish and chips in Kent. I have yet to find a better fish takeaway, it is always great and cooked just right.

By far the best burger I’ve ever had, traditional chips cooked to perfection and the cod was delicious, the batter was perfect, golden and you can tell the oil was fresh, service was with a smile, polite and friendly and welcoming to a new local resident, this is our new go-to takeaway, thankyou :)

Absolute Legends! Popped there early on in the week to try it out. Was greeted by D, very pleasant customer greeting. I felt a very warm welcome. Its such a nice atmosphere. I Got large fish and chips and a battered sausage with two cans of coke for £15. (For me and the wifey) Try that in London you will be lucky to get a large chips and two cans of coke for £15 lol When I say OMG I mean OH MY Giddy Giddy Gosh!!! 😍 the chips are fat n sexy fish and chip shop chips. Old school style, the fish was fresh, I can say the oil it was cooked in was fresh too, the battered sausage was scrumptious. It was on my mind every day since. i had to go back today lol 😆 I got the same thing again and mmmmmmmmmmmm nom nom noms. It hit the spot. Its an absolute bargain for the price. The next time I go I will be reviewing it on tiktok! Please don't EVER change. Keep up the great work and thank you for your service. You are without a doubt my favourite

Come every Friday for our fish and chips Always phone order though at lunch time and they are ready for collection at the time we ask for taste great

We have become regulars. Nice food, friendly service.

I travel from Dover best fish shop in kent so far.

Best freshly cooked large haddock and chips in the area!

Decided to have fish & chips for the last night of our holiday. The Castle Fish Bar came highly rated and it didn't disappoint. I think these may have been the best fish & chips I've ever had. Not being a big fish lover I still plumped for the fish - excellent choice. The cod was fresh and tasty and the batter, as well as, the chips were free of grease and were delightful. Service was also very friendly. So if you're in this part of Kent make a heading for the Castle Fish Bar and reel in some wonderful nosh!

Good quality fish and chips. Generous portions. Friendly staff.

This is by far one of our favourite fish and chip shops such happy man served me the fish and chips dine perfect such great prices too if your ever in the area go here so worth it you can pre oreder aswell

We were disappointed with our fish and chips. Service was quick and staff friendly, but that didn't make up for the disappointing food.

So pleased to finally pop in and grab fish and chips to takeaway this evening - it was worth it. The meal was spot-on and the service friendly and good.

Average price. Big menu. Chips, curry sauce, and peas were spot on. The fish was a bit dry but hopefully it was an off day as it was very busy so it must generally be good.

Chips good. Cod awful. The chips I can't complain about. They were fresh and hot. They were perfectly cooked and took a while for them to start to cool down. But the cod was awful. It was the most chewiest fish ever. It was cold and a little bit over cooked. The batter was a bit soggy. If you are going to go there avoid the cod.

Love the food from here. I herebalot of people say that it's expensive from here but in my experience you pay for what you get and the food and portions sizes are spot on. Will be returning many times in the future no doubt about that.

phone order a d quick to pick up always fresh food

Without a doubt one of the best.

Super lovely staff and great food

My go-to Deal chip shop, love this place

Staff helpful and friendly food always been freshly cooked very responsible prices

Food is cooked very well, smiley happy conversational staff, very welcoming.

I got cod and chips today, but the cod was dry because it had obviously been left to long in the overhead compartment and half the chips were made up of dried dried up bits left at the bottom of the batch. So I was very disappointed because if you pay you expect to be able to eat the food..I had the same experience from there before, and I thought I'd give it another go, but I won't go again I'm afraid.

Always visit more than once when we stay in Walmer,lovely food served by pleasant staff,fish bites meal is really good value,enough for two people really

I have never had a bad experience from this fish and chip shop. I live in the far end of deal so have quite a few chip shop’s that I pass to get here but would still rather make the effort for this one. The staff are really nice and friendly. Chips are awesome 😎.

Excellent fish and chips with super quick service! Pleased we chose this place for dinner.

Used for a massive order for a wedding, and they were absolutely perfect! Delivered hot and fresh and exactly as described, couldn't have been better. Thank you!

Best fish and chips in Deal area always fresh always tasty and good value. Friendly staff always welcome you can't praise them enough.

Great food clean plates all round.

Jumped on the wrong bus back to Dover and ended up in Walmer (never been before) My daughter and I popped into here and had the most delicious chips. The lady serving also gave my daughter a lollipop. Great service and great food.

Chicken burger just a bit of chicken a dollop of mayo not a bit of salad! Fish n chips fish looked shrunk in the batter and grey in colour! Chips texture was like they had been sitting there for a few hours then reheated when needed! Worst fish n chips ever bought!

Absolutely loved grabbing our dinner from Castle Fish Bar. They had a wonderful menu with plenty of options for the entire family. We couldn’t decide and ended up ordering a sampling of different fish, hamburgers, chips and they staff was kind enough to give my kids some treats. Super friendly staff. No seats available so we took the food down to the beach and had our dinner there. This is a great spot.

Great fish and chips, highly rated by friends and family. Lovely people too.

Well really was not worth buying burger was awful chips and sausage and cod row all ruff ruff like it's been there for day and flavours bad.

Very sorry I posted review regarding a different fish chip shop, but I can comment on this establishment. We had a take away from here, fish was excellent, very large, chips were OK a little dry but that is down to the potatoes, staff very nice and pleasant, on the way out a gent apologised for the wait, I was surprised as are wait time was very short compared to other places. I wasn't very keen on the steak pie a little dry but being from up north I am used to our Hollands pies. Food was average and service was good, we will be calling in again when next down there.

Simply cannot fault anything , Best Fish ( Cod) and chips I’ve had for a very long time , cooked perfectly , just how it should be , super quick service , by pleasant polite happy staff . The best I’ve had in Deal / Walmer so far . Reasonable prices too .

Really disappointed. We hardly ever eat fish and chips so it is a real treat when we do. The chips were dry and under cooked - some raw in the middle. Fish was very dry.

Food and portion size fine, regular client there

Our go-to place for Fish and Chips!! Love Castle Fish Bar. Great food, great service and reasonably priced too! What's not to love.

Probably the worst piece of cod I have had the misfortune to pay for, even my dog refused to eat it! It was thin and very cold in comparison to the chips which arrived home piping hot. I would assume it was left overs from the lunch time service. The picture I have uploaded is a mid section piece just to give some idea. Wont be going back. Even if you do see the fish before you buy it it might just be all batter like mine!

I have purchased cod and chips before but the ones I had tonight where awful - the cod was very thin, cold and hard so I would imagine it was unsold from lunch time. A real shame and a total waste of money and the drive. The pic shows how thin it was and it wasnt a tail end....even my dog refused it!

I love the Rock (Rig) from Castle Fish Bar. Served by friendly, efficient staff and tasting fantastic. Great value, great choice and an even greater taste.

Est fish and chips in the area by far. And quantity, exceptional. Superb....again. Thanks guys and girls.

Went here because our usual chippy was closed. We had large cod, cod roe, chips and curry sauce. Everything was cooked really well and our plates were empty at the end. Friendly service and clean and tidy shop. Cannot recommend it enough - we’ll be back.

Friendly, efficient and excellent fish and chips.

Great fish & chips, warmed us up a treat after being out in the cold.

Great chips, lovely haddock Go here for best takeaway..

Really delicious freshly cooked to order fish and excellent chippy chips. Wish they delivered!!

Have been using the Castle Fish Bar since it was opened 8 yeRs ago. Still the same brilliant service and great food.

Great food friendly staff good service

Not a great fish n chip meal.ordered rock for hubby,and not sure what we got,but it sure wasn't rock.

Fish great, crisp, golden, right amount of batter and done to perfection. Chips slightly under cooked and powdery. Portion sizes OK, food piping hot but not a huge amount of wrapping to keep it warm. Female cook with long hair wore neither hair net or face mask. Male assistant taking payment also no mask and no hand cleansing between transactions. Service friendly. Atmosphere OK but wonder how trading standards awarded a 5 / 5 grade for hygiene. Covid precautions poor.

This is my mother-in-law's favourite Fish and Chip shop, and whenever we come down to visit her, we always get treated to fish and chips. This was our first trip back to Castle Fish Bar since Lockdown and it was as good as ever. The fish is always so fresh and the batter light, and the chips are to die for! We always get a friendly welcome and it always looks spotless. We love the flower baskets outside too. Looking forward to our next trip to Deal, when no doubt we will be enjoying some more fish and chips!

Great Fish and chips and excellent service 👍

I visited this traditional fish and chip shop, rather than my normal haunt as it was on my way home and I was pressed for time. I will certainly visit again as it was spotlessly clean, friendly staff and most importantly the scampi and chips was excellent.

Always helpful and good quality fish and chips, great place

Ordered haddock and chips both very greasy batter soft and soggy on fish. Went to shop as it had good ratings hope it was a one off bad experience but would not use shop again

Lovely food and generous portions. Always stop in at Castle Fish Bar when I'm in and around Dover.

Best fish and chips in Deal area what more can I say but see for yourself.

Really clean and tidy place. Loved the generous and delicious food. Good value and friendly staff too.

Perfect fish and chips, well worth it.

Lovely fresh cooked food 😋friendly staff 😀

Great Fish and chips, caught fresh locally. Top place.

Really efficient service, friendly staff and a great selection on the menu. The chips were fab and the fish had lovely crispy batter that was fresh and tasty. Best fish and chips I've had in a long time.

Very nice fish and chips 🍟and also serve spam fritters! Yum 😋yum 😋

My wife has the chicken burger and chips and i had battered sausage and chips. We went just as they opened at 12. The food was lovely and hot, chips were crisp but not frazzled. My wife said it's the best chickenburger she's had. The battered sausage was tasty. The staff here are friendly and they take card payments. 10/10 from us. We always get a good meal here.

Really enjoyed our fish and chips saveloy and battered sausage

Really good Fish and Chips. In my opinion the best in Deal

Not impressed need to change there oil had burnt taste to fish chips

Best fish and chips in Walmer and Deal.

I have just had the local rig(Huss/ rock salmon whatever you like to call it) from the Castle Fish Bar it was absolutely delicious - the best I have ever had! Portion sizes are very generous and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend. So lucky to have this as our local fish bar.

Great fish and chips all cooked to order and taste good

Good food portions. Service was pleasant

Great food , great service , friendly and clean .

This is a fantastic chippy. I've used it on numerous occasions when I'm in the area and the food has always been excellent as has the service.

Superb fish and chips. 5 star. Great staff. Sorry I was early. Best by far.

Excellent fish and chips very good portion s. Very friendly staff

We don’t get fish and chips very often, I have to have chicken as not many places do gluten-free, and always dubious as I am a coeliac, but my half a chicken was fantastic, not dry at all and my chips yummy, my husband enjoyed his cod! Not to much batter, very friendly great service, after a disappointing trip to Folkestone for a COVID jab that never happened, queue far to long, couldn’t stand that long, but lovely food for the end of a disappointed evening, will definitely use again.

Very clean shop and very friendly guys served us all an amazing cod and chips ! The best we had for a while ! And they also made chips more crispier as we asked and also recommended us a nice location on the beach to eat it all! Guys thank you!

Good taste, good portions, good service.

Excellent food, friendly service, safe environment during these awful times.
