If you want the best fish and chips you've ever tasted go here!!!! After a trip to Winchester me and my family were feeling hungry and happened to stumble upon this place. We were greeted like we were old friends by the guy behind the counter he took our order he was very attentive to the order making sure we had specifically what we ordered (fussy kid) he said as its all fresh cooked there would be a short wait and he would bring it over.... a 10 mi use wait and we were given our meals and my gosh were they worth the wait. The fish was cooked to perfection batter crisp fish soft it was perfect absolutely perfect. My fussy child ate all his food and clear plates all around. I live in Southampton and I will be coming back to Winchester just for the food and the fantastic service

Visited due to another Fish & Chip shop being closed, and after reading reviews thought we would try. Absolutely delighted with our decision. Ordered Haddock and chips x 2 and mushy peas and 2 cups of tea. tea was perfect, fish and chips were cooked to perfection with no skin on fish, just how we like it, crispy batter, and the meal was piping hot, being freshly cooked to order. Would definitely recommend this cafe, service and food exceptional. will revisit on our next visit to Winchester prior to cruise.

The worst chips I have ever had in 44 years of life. Almost the entire portion was refried, burnt, and should have been binned not served to a paying customer. As if that the quality of the food wasn't bad enough, the quantity for the price of a large portion was disgraceful. How a fish and chip shop can get chips so horribly wrong is quite frankly unbelievable.

I came upon Catch while looking for something warm to eat while wandering around Winchester and had the medium cod and chips. I do have a healthy appetite and found this was plenty for me. The fish was lovely, very well cooked and the chips were good too.There was a bit of a wait but as the fish was being cooked to order this is a positive.

As long as these guys keep putting quality first, they will remain the best fish and chip shop around. Food is always fresh, hot and crispy - generous portions too.Really hoping they keep up the focus on quality!

I like to think that I’m a bit of an expert when it comes to fish and chips. I have sampled fish and chips all over the UK. This restaurant is hands down the best in terms of service, quality and value. They’re passionate about their fish and chips. The fish is always made to order with generous and really fresh portions and the most delicious batter. In fact, the couple next to us, drove for over 70 miles that evening just for the restaurant. This little place is a real hidden treasure in the centre of Winchester. You wn’t be disappointed.

This is the best place for fish and chips. Limited dining area as only a couple of tables but I always get takeaway and sit in the park to eat so this does not bother me. Fish is always fresh and nice crunchy chips. Batter on the fish is always perfect and not soggy like you get in most chippy's.Service is great and always quick..

Catch Fish and Chips in heart of Winchester served up excellent fish and chips. Definitely worth the wait of having everything cooked to order, fresh and piping hot, good portion sizes, the chips were chunky with a lovely crisp edge but even better the fish was delicious as the batter was thin and not killing the taste of the fish. Personally I hate it where other chippies coat the fish in ten tonne of batter or it’s been sitting in a heat plate and cooked to death. Friendly good service at the Catch also helps so will definitely be back at the Catch

I got talking with the new owners and I have to say, they "really care" about the quality that they are delivering. The oils are changed daily, often twice, which ensure crispy batter and beautifully white moist fish inside.

Al visitar Winchester, nos encontramos desesperados por tomar una taza de té. Vi la oferta de pescado y patatas fritas al mediodía con una taza de té, café o un refresco por 5. 55 y debidamente aparecimos y ordenamos. Encontramos el personal muy amable. Nos sentamos en una mesa afuera y nuestro pedido estaba con nosotros en 15 minutos. Hay sal y pimienta en los molinos y un buen vinagre de malta en cada mesa. El pescado era muy bueno, suculento y sabroso dentro de una pasta decente y las patatas fritas eran igualmente buenas. El té también fue bienvenido. En mi opinión, es muy buena relación calidad-precio: el pescado también era de buen tamaño. Recomendado.

Probably the best pickled egg I've tasted with the perfect balance of vinegar and soaking time providing a subtle tang to this underrated of foods. On inspection there was no dark edges to the yolk which indicates over pickling. Fish'n chips excellent too with golden chips with a perfect crunch not the sloppy pale mess you sometimes get where you can't differentiate the fish from the chips. These fishy artisans are serious about their work- and a huge gang of German tourists agreed by their empty plates and satisfied faces.

We visited here on a Sunday lunchtime looking for a quick snack. The small restaurant area was busy with all the tables taken, and there were also several customers waiting for their takeaway order. We joined the queue and our order was taken fairly quickly. However, we had a 20 minute wait after placing our order before receiving our chips. I got the impression that they were understaffed, or perhaps not able to cope with busy lunchtimes. The amount of customers however is a testament to the quality of the food. Despite our long wait the chips were delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed them. We didn't try anything else off the menu so cannot comment on the quality of any of their other products but we would return again (when we are not in a rush!).

It's now my favourite Fish and Chips in town. Very kind staff, you can eat in if you like, and the meal can include the warm drink to which they kindly also add a biscuit. That I find a 'sweet' thought. Food is served on proper plates with real cutlery. The place is spotless and the atmosphere is nice and familiar. If you're eating in they come and check if all is fine. I just can but suggest this place if you fancy good fish and chips. Personally I love it and friends I took here liked it, too. They also have a loyalty card. And they are very kind also with children. Love it.

I spent £25 last night on family fish and chips. Paid, sorted. But had forgotten something. Tried to pay for it again on my card and was refused as they had a £5 card limit. I totally understand this BUT I had just spent £25 so surely they could waive this rule just for me to spend a bit more ? No. Staff were adamant. Whole thing lacked discretion, it was silly. Won't be going back in case my memory fails me again on something under a fiver. Nice fish and chips though, to be fair.

3/12/2016 I ordered Fish n Chip and did say the price 7.99 pounds.I realised that I supposed to have mashy pea in this set.I guessed I talked with the owner and he blamed me that I ordered the set of 6.65 pounds.He spoke loundly that I did order the wrong one and he said ok I gave you mashy pea for free (what???). I explanined that I gave him 12 pounds and he gave me 0.50 pounds so the total is 11.50pounds(my son food is 3.50 pounds so say 7.99+3.50=11.49pounds and charged me 11.50pounds).He said it was 6.65+3.50=10.15pound (are you sure??). For a while he gave me the bill later and I saw the time printed was wrong. It sounded like he just had printed. He said it was the time changed. My husband checked his visa reciept and it was the right time though.He didnt listen to me at all. So my husband thought we should leave. He shouted to us that ok ok I was wrong you are right. (Was this the way you confessed??)We wont go there anymore for sure.. The food is nice but you need to make sure about the communication.

My large family of relatives visited Winchesters in June. On a rainy day, first 4 of us, then another 4 descended on this small place, and another person ordered 4 orders of fish & chips to go. Although the fish took some time to be fried, when they came out, they were crunchy on the outside, dense and hot on the inside. They stayed hot for a long time too. I could see behind the counter that the temperature of each fish was checked after frying. The fries were also delicious. Many of my family ordered the Special with small size fish, tea/coffee/soda, and fries for £5.50. I had a medium fish with no fries for about the same price. All were delicious. Compared to the 2 other fish and chips meals I had subsequently in London, this was by far the best and most memorable.

We could not fault this place in any way for the price being paid, really excellent value for money and tasty wholesome classic fish and chips.

The "Caught" owners have sold this shop and it's been renamed "Catch". Although the new owner is very amiable and (appears) willing to please, I think his staff need to go on a fish cooking course. Our food tonight was not up to Caught standards, the small cod was very small, the battered sausages way way too large. I don't want this venture to fail, but they need to up their game at Catch to stay in Winchester.

We took the order back to the shop and were given new meals ( and a single can of coke for our troubles?) they were tiny portions of re fried chips and very poor cod.Not the regular staff on duty but no excuse. Never again-a real shame.

Caught appears to be the last Chippy in Winchester as the Blue Dophin disappeared and the one in Stockbridge and in Jewry St shut their doors. I found "Caught " a little bit pricey for my liking although they do deals for OAPs(not old enough yet ) . I agree with the reviewer who said that the service was slow. On the plus side the chips were freshly cooked , good clean fresh oil and cooked to perfection. Generally it is great to see a Chippy in such a stuck up place like Winchester though could do with the prices being a bit lower.

Service is always friendly and they recognize you too, nice touch.

A previous chippy on the same premises is much missed, as the owner and staff were top quality. The same good food remains, though as everything is cooked fresh and the sole staff member (on a Saturday early evening) made each order in turn it meant a staggering 20 minute wait for a large portion of chips. Not that large, to be honest, but tasty. Not a place to visit on a whim, but phone ahead and go collect. You won't be disappointed like I sadly was. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt though as surely has potential, just needs fine tuning.

Stopped here to get a quick meal before I crashed in my hotel. Superb chips, fritters and service. Will be going here the next time I'm in Winchester.

When it comes to Fish and Chips at "CAUGHT" in Winchester UK, it is the Best Ever. None can compare to the preparation and the fine taste of their Fish and Chips. Added to the fine taste, one gets another perk which is the friendly atmosphere of the people. The way the F&C is served adds to the experience. The people have a special good attitude and sincerity which creates a true comfort level. We went to Winchester with another American couple since there was a ship's cruise tour to Winchester Cathedral. It was easy to walk to from the Cathedral and opens at 12 noon. I recommend this wonderful treat to anyone who wants to enjoy a delightful lunch of Fish and Chips. Please note that they have a daily Senior Citizen special as On a scale of 10 (being the best), CAUGHT qualifies for an "11" !They are located at 66 St Georges Street.

We visited Winchester on a cruise tour, and my wife and i and our friends wanted fish and chips.We saw the review here, and made a bee line for Caught. We were not disappointed.The fish and chips were wonderful, and the staff was most delightful. Two thumbs up from the four Floridians. This place was fantastic!!

....... and that is what Caught is. Fresh fish in a crisp and golden batter, twice fried fluffy centred chips done to perfection. I have fish and chips, mainly in sometimes expensive restaurants about once a month. Never have I had them anywhere near the perfection of Caught's. All topped with excellent and cheerful service. 11 out of 10

Went on reccomendation of a friend and although the food was lovely the server was rude and dismissive. Won't be going back after being ignored and rudely spoken to.

Having read the reviews we thought, great, let's try. Unfortunately it didn't work out so good. We visited last night (Fri 2/5) at 6:30pm. Firstly we picked a bad time to arrive as the shop was very busy and had a 25 minutes wait.But worse than that all 3 of us (me, my wife and my daughter) have gone down ill after eating the fish and chips. I have had a dodgy tummy since late yesterday evening, my wife has had a high temperature and my daughter has been suffering from both. The only common thing we did/ate yesterday was the fish and chips.So no recommendation from us!

Good fish and chips,beautifully cooked not at all greasy. Service was a little slow but this was understandable as they were training a member of staff. They were exceptionally friendly so excellent customer service overall and I have to say they look very smart in their uniforms which was refreshing to see in a chippy, and it all looked very clean and very well looked after. It wasn't very expensive either, we had fish and chips, and sausage and chips for less than a tenner. I'll be going back again for more!

Best fish and chips in Winchester by a mile. Freshly cooked to order on each visit. We go there once or twice a month and it has always been consistently great.

I go here for lunch at work occasionally, and the fish and chips are the best I have ever had. Not only that, but for the quality, it is reasonably priced, and the service is attentive and friendly.

Ordered fish, scampi & chips. Service was pretty good but food was average - nothing to write home about. Just a standard chippy

Very friendly people run this shop. Genuinely have the time of day for you always. No stale fish here, every bit cooked fresh. Superb curry sauce and mushy peas give caught the edge on everything else around. A truly famous fish n chip shop.

Took the family here for lunch based on other reviews and have to agree that this is a really good fish and chip outlet. If you are used to the more normal quality typified by the likes of Seafarers thus is a real eye opener. The haddock was nice and meaty and very tasty and a good size. The chips were plentiful and also of high quality (real potato as my son commented). Homemade sauce tatare available. The only slightly downside was the batter was very tasty and crisp but a little greasy. Maybe even better if cooked in beef dripping. Note that this is a a take away with a few seats rather than a restaurant.

If you're looking for top quality Fish n Chips this is the place to go. I have lunch there once a week. Their fish is fresh and the batter they use on their fish is really light and tasty. To cap it all, the staff are very friendly.

New ownership and now EXCELLENT. Parking is a challenge, but my partner double parked while I nipped in. We had called ahead as all the stuff we wanted would need cooking fresh. We had plaice, calamari and scampi, with a pea fritter and 3 portions of chips. HUGE bit of place, and very nice calamari. Scampi looked more "industrial" as in bought in frozen, but the batter on the other items was crispy and light. The chips were fresh and crispy, and better than Seafare on Worthy Lane (theirs are soggy)Of particular note was the items were packed in flat solid cardboard boxes which protected them well from being squashed. Price for the whole lot was £16.50, so very reasonable for three people.Service was friendly and very happy to take a phone order - since parking is a hassle this means a lot. Because I always have plaice, it needs cooking fresh, and at Seafare that means queuing up, placing the order then having to wait, and they are very reluctant to take phone orders. They also seem to run out of chicken pies every time I go.So Caught is the new venue for me, although my new year plan to shift weight might mean that it is a while before I go back!

Stumbled on caught after recently picking up another takeaway very close. The last time I had fish and chips this good it was in Padstow at rickie steins. Just excellent, proper mushy peas and a great curry sauce instead of the usual bland stuffPerfect chips and great cod. We loved it and most importantly so did the kids. Awesome

...at low price. The cod and the chips was also decent, tasty, well salted and crispy. The guys are pleasant, chatting.Give it a try. Even if you have bad experience with f&c. This is different.

A beautiful location, a splendid restaurant, friendly and attentive staff but sadly the food was somewhat disappointing. The vegetables were extremely limp (over cooked in fact). The homemade pie wasn’t up to par, the filling and gravy were both tasty and enjoyable, but the pie had spent too long under the pass. It was extremely hard and the pastry on the side and base of the pie impossible to cut with a knife….a disappointment.

Most delicious chips, fish cake and mushy peas I’ve had for some time. Piping hot, crispy, freshly cooked. Simple, basic premises but friendly service and most importantly top class chips and food.

This used to be a very rare and therefore special place. A tea/coffee shop with the coffee made in a separate kitchen. There was also an ice cream machine in the attached anteroom. This meant that unlike every other coffee shop whether a chain or an independent it had a unique USP, somewhere to have a quiet drink, breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea where you could have a chat with a friend or family. Unfortunately that has changed. It now has an incredibly loud buzzing from the ice cream freezer and the noise of the coffees being made right in the main area. The food is still lovely, the staff are friendly and helpful but it is now a noisy place just like all the rest. What a real shame.
