Central Fish Bar in Wakefield

Served by the lovely Natalie, battered my sausage to perfection; accompanied by fabulous chips topped with scraps. The fish is very fresh and tasty, all on all, well worth the visit to Ossett just to have fish and chips. I would give more stars if I could very much a satisfied customer 👍😊

Very nice fish and chips with a curry sauce top marks. It was that nice. I forgot to take a photograph. But here is the paper after.

I had a fish from here for the first time, freshly cooked but soggy fatty/oily batter. The fish on it’s own was nice but the fish fryer can’t cook if this is how they usually are, I couldn’t finish it, just not nice so won’t return.

One of the best Fish & Chip shops in the area this place. Just a shame it isn't open more often. Friday teatime would be great.

Great Fish and Chip shop! Great food and service! Would recommend 😁

First time here today great quality best fish butty in a while good fish excellent batter well cooked great service even through in a few chips for the weight watcher

Great chippy in the heart of Ossett. Always really good quality, and taste amazing. One of its charms is when eating in they get served in the paper straight onto the table, no plates required 😄

Over the years we have always had fish and chips here when visiting Ossett market and usually the queues are out of the door. We called today and the first thing we noticed was no queues, good thing we thought, wrong. The few locals who were eating inside had fishcakes, sausages or pies and we found out why when our fish were cooked, gone was the lovely white fish that we remembered to be replaced by a greyish offering that tasted as good as it looked, awful. Obviously haddock and cod have been replaced by a cheaper variety to keep prices down but we would rather pay a little more for something that we can eat and enjoy, needless to say we won't be going back.

Ordered a chip butty at lunch time, peak period and the chips were cold. Not warm, COLD. Waste of money. Didn't eve eat it as chips just felt greasy being cold.

Excellent value and very tasty food. Great customer service.

Chatty staff. Fish n Chips were the best I have tasted in a long time. Not greasy and portion size was good. Nice to have plenty of seating as it was raining outside. Good luck guys.

This is my 'go to' chippy in ossett. Friendly staff and great food and all for a reasonable price.What's not to like ?

Great fish shop good value for money very welcoming staff under new management

Tried it here for the first time at the weekend, can’t complain at all. Will definitely come back soon

Brilliant chippy with absolutely gorgeous fish and chips, lovely staff too.😋👍😊x

First time visiting here, and I understand, it's recently changed owner. I went in for a lightly battered fish butty, and it was fantastically fluffy on the inside, the counter assistant was very welcoming, and obviously knows the regular customers. I will visit again when in the area

Great little fish and chip shop food beautiful staff friendly x

Nice enough fish and chips, shame it's only open at lunch times.

Best fish and chips you will ever eat in Yorkshire and believe me I have eaten fish and chips all over Yorkshire so very well done to the owner (Steve)

In recent weeks I have visited three fish and chip shops in the area looks like I saved the best until the last the batter was light crispy and tasty no sign of sogginess here the haddock was fresh white meaty and tasty chips 🍟 nicely cooked no grease they do a small portion of fish and chips £3.10 to eat in or takeaway highly recommend thank you everyone

The fish and chips here are the best on the planet! I won't go anywhere else as I know there is nothing in the area to compete. The girls behind the counter are very friendly and chat away to you whilst you wait (if you have to) . If ever you are in Ossett I strongly recommend that you pay a visit!

Portions were tiny and the quality of food certainly didn't make up for it. OAP's filled up the tables inside and I suppose that's who the portions were aimed at. Not worth going to, AVOID

My favourite fish and chips by a yorkshire mile. Delicious melts in your mouth great value for money

Just had to review these again, what a great little chippy, the staff are superb, quick and polite with their service. They are what service should be, they take your order they take your money and like a great little tag team you get your food.Nice portion of chips, with a great cut to them always important not liking big long chips they fill your bag but there is never many of them. Peas were mushy for sure and the only down side I did not take the bigger pot.Overall a nice place even if you sit in (as I did) its a bit small but the food makes it worth it. Don't forget to ask for bits (scraps to most of you)

Went here on Friday and what a treat it was, great chips, lovely white fish covered with fabulous batter. Traditional fish and chips and at a price that's not outrageous.

I'm so happy to see fish and chips making its way to the top of the take-out list in England again, and this is one of the places that helped i'm sure. Fresh haddock, hand cut chips skillfully fried and served hot with choices of sauces. Lashes of salt and vinegar is my recommendation. Couple of chairs and tables to sit and enjoy your food, or sit outside on the bench and have them the good old British way. Very nice staff, we met the owner who has been cooking them for 30 years in the same traditional manner, so if your travels ever bring you to Ossett, please stop in and enjoy a taste of Great Britain, with bits on!

Change is better. since it reopened and changed hands last year. owner knows exactly how to do fish&chips to perfection. Fish is chunky, white & very tasty. Owner has spent money refurbishing the shop, it's modern and clean. I can highly recommend.

my first review was before they changed ownership recently. new occupants promptly increased prices and reduced portion size so cant really give it 5 stars anymore we head to Caseys down the road now

The recent change of ownership has been a good thing for this fish shop. The quality of the fish on offer has improved greatly. The fish here always used to be a bit sloppy and mushy. Now the fish on offer is much nicer, it's firm flakes of flesh are just right and taste much better. I personally think the previous owners served up cod rather than haddock which is far superior. The new owners have also decorated and cleaned up the place making me feel more comfortable with the hygiene levels now on offer. I for one will continue to use this fish shop regularly.

I think this business must of recently changed hands.. Because I visited recently and the food was appalling the woman who served me had fingernails that had seen better days!! The fish was greasy and I think the chips were from the day before. One woird dreadful.

Arguably the best fish and chips anywhere. Service with a smile too . Looking forward to my next tasting soon

Excellent fish and chips and also excellent curry sauce if you like it a little spicy. The home cooked peas, the secret batter recipe and the expertly filleted fish make for a really great meal as well as great service from the owners (Walter and Sam). Without doubt the finest Fish and chips in the town and well worth a visit or the extra walk to get into the pedestrian area. highly recommended! walk past the rest to get to this gem in the town centre. always busy even on non market days - there's a reason why!!
