Chesil Chippie in Weymouth and Portland

Batter on the fish was thick and soggy the cod it's self was dry chips not bad just looked on the small size in between a French fry and a chip

Absolutely delicious veggie options!! I will definitely be back next time I'm on Portland!! Samphire Tempura, YUM! Pea Bomb Fritter, YUM! Homemade Tartar sauce, YUM! Chips, YUM! Service was friendly and speedy.

Great cod and chips, reasonably priced.

Best fish and chip shop around the area the frier pineapple in batter is awesome

No stars if I could. Large cod, regular chips and curry sauce... curry sauce tasted like curry powder had been added to gravy granules. Chips and batter on cod was soggy and the cod and chips all tasted of stale cooking oil, it all tasted that bad that none of it was edible and was thrown away.. Without any doubt whatsoever, THE WORST FISH AND CHIP SHOP ON PORTLAND. Complete RIP off

Do you want excellent takeaway fish and chips? If so this is the place service good or order online. If there is a problem then it is finding somewhere to park, but it is worth it.

£6 for sausage and chips. Sausage nice but chip stone cold

We had high hopes given the reviews, but we were disappointed with the fish, which was greasy and had too much batter, and the chips and veggie calamari seemed to have been sitting for a bit.

Portions a bit too big served a little grumpy but incredible selection of vegan options. Tempura samphire was a little chewy but very much enjoyed my cod bites. But I would leave the selection of sauces and stick with Heinz. All in all very good.

Some of the best fish & chips we've had for quite a while. Beautiful batter on the cod and loads of very tasty chips. Each portion individually boxed with a wedge of lemon. Great online ordering from the website and ready on time, with a prompt email to confirm. Can't beat good fish & chips in a coastal location in a Friday night. Thanks!

Don't be put off by the look as you drive past. Frendly and efficient staff. clean and modern look inside. Had a good range of food, well cooked and nice portion sizes. Will definitely be returning.

Great vegan fish and chips. Had a great evening eating these on Chesil Beach whilst watching the sun go down.

Great find. Gluten free fish and chips. Very popular chippie with lots of vegan options also. Really tasty. Would recommend.

There were 13 of us, from fish lovers to vegans, and we were all satisfied and well fed. We really appreciated the adventurous menu as well as quick and efficient service. Only tiny quibble: tempura samphire was well worth trying but I'd prefer a small helping of samphire raw or lightly steamed. Too much of its flavour is lost in the frying.

Recently visited, delicious fish and chips along with homemade condiments and some cod bites on the side. Probably one of the best fish and chips had food was hot, tasty and quick service, and luckily not stolen by seagulls either.

Such a shame took my wife n daughter to portland for fish n chips on the beach for a birthday treat. Spent over £30 for 3 of us. Regular cod was not much bigger than a fishfinger,batter soft although had to wait for them. Paid for curry sauce and mushy peas but we're sadly lacking in bag when opened on beach. Poor effort. Will try somewhere else next time

I have had delicious food from here several times in the past. Sadly my most recent visit (and time before that) have both been disappointing. This visit, the chips were barely cooked with us finding several crunchy in the middle chips and all verrrryyy soft and almost wet. The mushy peas which I used to love, were very runny and didn’t taste anywhere near as good as they used to. The other components were all ok but nothing special. Not sure if I will visit again. It’s a shame as they have a great menu, but the basic items aren’t good enough sadly.

Extremely expensive. £4.70 for a large chips that is really a regular size and they were nothing more than average. Curry sauce watery and bland. Very disappointed. Would not go again. I feel I would save money by driving into Weymouth for much better quality.

I’m glad we found this place. Bright and clean, a warm welcome. The range of food in offer was excellent and there were things on there I’d never seen before like samphire, and banana leaf. We couldn’t resist the battered mince pie (vegan) the batter was light and crispy, not greasy at all. It was delicious! I had sausage and chips and the chips were wonderful. Sausages were also great. Highly recommended!

Offered a good variety of fish which was crisp and fresh, excellent chips and samphire, all cooked to order. Perfect.

I googled vegan chippie and it lead me here. I had banana blossom ‘fish’ chips and mushy peas it was really delicious, a great option for anyone who’s a veggie or vegan but craving fish n chips

Very good food, Delicious fish and chips. Tasty, good portions, crispy batter, a very satisfying meal

Sadly I am only writing a review to tell people that although they offer gluten free batter it is fried with a gluten-containing battered products. I read on Trip Adviser they have gf products so I called in because it was not clear online what was available. I was advised that yes, they offer gf batter but it is a shared fryer… sigh.

We were really looking forward to some great seaside fish and chips after a long day out at the beaches. Perhaps reviews set our expectations too high but the two cod, sausage and chips were all distinctly average and sadly flavourless. Looked like a good range of vegan choices, if that floats your boat. Still desperate, the following day we tried another chippy up the road, which really hit the spot.

From the queues outside, we'd expected this to be a great dinner. However, everything just tasted a bit bland. It was ok, the fish seemed fresh & the batter was crisp, but it was pretty flavourless. And the chips were small and kind of chewy. Service was lovely however. It just wasn't our favourite fish & chips.

My partner and I are in Dorset for our honeymoon at the moment and wanted to have some proper ‘fish and chips’ by the sea. We have been vegan for 6 years and have had only one other vegan fish and chips by the seaside, which was last year. After googling places, this shop came up and we were both pleasantly surprised at the amount of options available. I had the calamari and my partner had the banana blossom fish. We also had mushy peas and curry sauce. Portion sizes were more than enough and the food itself was really lovely. It definitely filled our craving for fish and chips. We ordered click and collect which was easy and the customer service was good - we were even recommended a spot to eat! We will be back. Thank you!

We wanted to watch the sunset while having some food. Decided that some fish and chips sat by the Olympic monument near the Heights Hotel on Portland Bill would be ideal. Had spotted the chippie a few days earlier with a long queue outside so...

We had to queue to order on our first night, which was totally worth it but noticed that you could click and collect, which we opted for, on our second visit. They do a small fish and chips, which was perfect for me. The batter...

The best fish, chips and mushy peas I’ve had (big statement coming from Blackpool!) and the crispy squid was an added delicious treat! Well worth a visit if you fancy fish and chips

Beautiful cod In Lovely light batter. Regular chips was good size although £3 for chips quite a lot. £6.70 for cod very good value. More importantly cooked to perfection. Will be back next time in Dorset.

We have been to Dorset many times over the years, but I found this chippie on happy cow and after a trip to Portland Bill it was the perfect time to try them out. I am vegan but my husband isn’t, it was great to...

We ordered via the click and collect option online 3 cod , chips and chips cheese and curry sauce When we opened the boxes the fish batter was soggy and wet , no crispy taste whatsoever , cold chips …. And the chips cheese and...

Incredible! What a vegan menu. Banana blossom fish, frickles, pea bombs, battered fresh pineapple, tempura battered samphire, vegan calamari, curry sauce…Feel like I’ve died and gone to heaven. And yes that was all for two people but we were so excited we ordered everything. Cross...

the most amazing vegan options! really tasty, good service, great choices and frickles! it's almost a good enough reason to drive 3 hours from our house just to eat here

I swore to the almighty that I would never eat fried cod again (being Portuguese cod is only meant to be fried when used for breakfast during wine collection season). This place changed my mind. Anything coming out from that boiling hot fryer full of greasy oil is a delight to the senses. Cod, haddock, samphire? And they also sell Cerne Abbas beer! Why is Portland so far from Cambridge?

Had dinner from here last night, I’m definitely trying the frickles next time. The lemon mayo is epic!! We had the vegan battered sausage and battered mushrooms and mushy peas. The ingredients are fabulous and all top quality, the minted peas are literally to die...

We decided to try Chesil chippie last Friday (15/4) as we were recommended by friends. We waited in the line for almost 45 minutes (bank holiday weekend so can be expected I guess). What was most disappointing is that after the long wait we were...

Posh chippie with fish packed in very fetching cardboard boxes. Seems very popular and it is clear to see why. The fish was great and the portions huge. Wasn't 100% convinced by the deep batter-fried samphire but it was an interesting experience and the fish,...

So many vegan options and the chips are my favourite 😋

Ordered 1 large cod, 1 regular cod and large chips. The regular cod was so small you could buy bigger portions from any frozen sections of any supermarket. Chips were undercooked and like warm at best. Highly disappointed. Wouldn't and couldn't advise anyone to go...

Wow! The vegan menu is incredible and the flavours exceeded our expectations - we tried a selection of vegan options including vegan fish, pea bomb, chips, vegan tartare, a pineapple fritter, and EVERYTHING was delicious. We also had the Dark Chocolate & Salted Caramel Cake which was something you would expect to eat in a fancy restaurant… SO GOOD! We wish it was located closer to our home… worth another trip to Dorset 😊

Vegan fish and chips (banana blossom) was absolutely terrible. Such a shame. Maybe they were having a bad day? Either way, it was not good. Had to chuck it.

Great chicken chunks, cod bites and chips on a Saturday evening at 7.30pm. Hardly any queue and welcomed by friendly staff.

Best Chippie on the island these days. Got them delivered tonight. Punctual, hot and delicious. Cod and chips with lovely batter and very fresh. Thank you.

I only holiday here but I have never had anything but fantastic food. And the staff are always so friendly. Thoroughly recommended.

Have used the Chesil Chippie twice now whilst a visitor to Portland. The fish and chips on both occasions have been really good, however this establishment lets itself down with a genuine lack of spark behind the counter. The staff ‘do the job’ but a...

Great fresh fish, friendly staff, lots of unusual extras, fried samphire was lovely

Truly a terrible experience. I ordered fish and chips and was served a piece of fish from a supermarket pack of frozen battered fish and then dropped in the fryer. So thin and dry it could have been sliced up with a razorblade. Also, it...

Amazing fish and chips ,the batter is gorgous plenty of flavour best iv had

We pre-ordered for collection last night, from the minute we arrived the customer service is poor. No communication as you walk through the door even when it was empty. The haloumi was tougher than leather and one piece was inedible, the same for the pineapple...

EXCELLENT vegan options, very good value.

Click and collect order was ready on time. Staff were helpful and courteous. Excellent vegan options, especially for the price.

Our second visit this week, and a very happy discovery! I’m a coeliac, and the gluten-free options are welcome and superb. Dreamy super-crispy batter on the fish. Lovely gluten-free tartare sauce in a little tub. The online booking system is easy and it works. So...

We have just been and bought our dinner from here this evening(which we have had a few times,being locals on the island) I can honestly say this was one of the worse. We had 2 battered quorn sausages with chips and a curry sauce between us. The sausages must have been cooked hours ago as they were like chewing on a piece of leather and not to mention the cold chips. All for £11!!!We won't be back. won't

Was not expecting, was not even dreaming, of finding a full vegan chippie in the UK. What a remarkable thing to stumble across one in Portland! The vegan fish is the highlight of the menu, made (90% sure) from deep fried banana blossom, its the real deal and tastes great. The chips are solid, as is the crispy "squid". I'd suggest that the vegan battered sausage maybe still needs a bit of perfecting but that's a very minor complaint from a man who at one point thought he'd given up the taste of battered anything! If this is available on a Dorset peninsula, then we are truly entering the golden age of vegan eating.

These were the best fish and chips we've had in a long time , lovely mushy peas with mint , very friendly service and well organised.

Best fish and chips we've ever had , and very friendly service , lovely mushy peas . Very impressed.

Amazing fresh fish and lovely service too! This place was the only place we could find that does not cross contaminate the sausages and chips or fish due to the oil. So great for veggies and halal food! So many options for vegans too (we didn't try this)

Ordered online and had big hopes for this place as all reviews looked great and the menu was good but when we picked it up on time infact we had to wait a moment for the fish to cook we drove half a mile down the road and parked up to eat and everything was cold, the chips was stone cold and soggy the curry sauce was like they haven’t turned the heater on the batterd squid was again cold and the batter was raw in places the pea bombs wasn’t even cooked properly the fish had a slight ammonia sense about it(old) not sure if they was rushing or had new staff who didn’t know what they was doing but it was one of the worst if not the worst chippy I’ve ever had. I will not be returning and certainly won’t recommend this place to anyone!

Great to find a place that does vegetarian 'fish' and chips, and also gluten free food. Well done for catering for different food requirements.

Nice and clean and friendly service. Chips were great and the sausages were huge!

Always a favourite when I’m passing!

Good chippy. It's best to order online and collect as the queue can get long. They cater for vegetarian and vegans and as such have a limited fish menu

We had fish and chips, the fish was very poor, the batter was rubbery and not at all crispy. The chips were bland and tasteless. Real shame as we were looking forward to it. Certainly not worth over £15 🙈

not even a little happy - arrogant attitude from staff - girl who served us clearly hasn't heard "no" often enough - food was crap: all batter, no fish & the chips were chips of chips - Portland has been great, this chip shop let...

Had fantastic fish and chips from here on a Friday evening while holidaying near Weymouth. Great menu, the best gluten free battered fish I’ve had anywhere. Wide range of vegan options too. Ordered ahead using the website and our food was hot and fresh at...

Delicious non-greasy fish n chips. Friendly service and very efficient online ordering system. Highly recommended!

Lovely chippy but if taking away ask for forks we forgot xx

1st time we've been here. Our expectations were set relatively high due to this being an award winning chippie!! The fish portion in a regular fish and chips were very small and the chips were not good. More dissapointing still was the sultry demure and 'you are lucky to be getting served by us' attitude of the girls serving. We will not be back.

Really great food, the pescatarians and the vegans were all very happy. Excellent covid measures, definitely best to order online.

Incredibly disappointing pre-ordered meal on 29/07/21. The batter on the fish was disgusting - soggy and inedible. It's a shame as the actual haddock inside was superb - fresh and full of flavour. And sadly the chips tasted of the cardboard box. We also tried the pea fritter (dismal batter) and tempura samphire (too salty even for my salt-obsessed friend). I've eaten loads of fish and chips over the last year from various places and this was one of the worst experiences. Hopefully a one-off given all the positive reviews. I like the idea of the place (with its vegan options etc) very much!

Amazing food every time, I recommend Chesil to everyone who comes to the island. Can't beat their yummy fish & chips while watching the sunset!

I can understand why this chippie wins awards. The chips were excellent. They have a whole vegan menu which we sampled a lot from and was very impressed. The pea bomb fritters are an absolute must!

Fantastic quality, friendly service, busy but not too long a wait. Walked in, but if you order and pay online before there is an express collection in place. Food was awesome!

Ended up disappointed, the online booking was easily used and the food ready on time, staff friendly and polite, fish etc lovely BUT the chips are under cooked and therefore ruined the meal, which as it wasn't the cheapest was a real shame.

A must for any Vegans in the area extremely impressed with the Verity and quality. Wood recommended order on line and pick up. Standard for us nowadays . Highly recommended.

You must go here when in Portland or Weymouth, or even 100 miles away. Such lovely food - best chips ever, and vegans have so many excellent choices. The vegan calamari is out of this world - please try it immediately.

The fish and chips are wonderful. My partner who is vegan was over the moon about the vegan fish and vegan calamari, very impressive. Thank you for all the lovely food.

Nice fish and chips, curry sauce was really salty and the staff seemed miserable and borderline rude

Lovely meal as usual from Spencer and the lovely ladies at Chesil chip shop. Would definitely recommend.

Very yummy food, had pre ordered and paid well in advance as we knew we wanted to go here so there was a very short wait for the food despite the constant line out of the shop. I had the vegan fish and ship and battered sausage and my partner had meat/fish version. Also had curry and tartar sauce! All was very good for both of us. 100% worth the money (also had pineapple fritter).

I live locally and have myself worked in a 'chippie' so I know how hard it is to satisfy orders swiftly when faced with unending queues of people. However I was really disappointed by my last (and it will be my last) visit here. There...

Despite queuing for 30 or so mins. Food was perfect. Wonderful cod 👌

Cod and cod bites are really tasty. Bit more expensive than other chippies but worth it. Unusual menu too.

The best fish and chips we've had! Gorgeous batter not too thick.

Pre-order service a really good idea as can get busy but lovely food and great vegan options

Really nice chips, best I've tasted in years. Kids loved them too

Best vegan fish and chips in Dorset. Absolutely fabulous 💚🌱

We ordered online. It arrived on time, friendly and efficient service. Food was hot, served with a wedge of lemon and sachets of salt and vinegar. Crispy batter, tasty cod, perfect chip shop chips. No plastic. Perfect!

Best fish and chips I've ever had. Great vegan options too.

Great chippy. Went there twice while on holiday in the area. Wasn’t disappointed at all!

chesil chippie make the best fish and chips! Not just on Portland but anywhere imo! They also offer samphire, mushy peas and more. Ordering on the app is easy and they are friendly and helpful.

Travelled a good distance to support a fish & chip shop that does vegan food and I so wanted this to be amazing but sadly it was very very average. The banana blossom fish was good, very good but very small portion and banana blossom...

Lovely staff and excellent pea fritters (why are pea fritters so hard to come by these days?!). Stopped at the last min so hadn't pre-ordered. Shout out to the kind lady who served me and SUPER salted-and-vinegared my chips on request :) they were fab!

After a day at work , pick up your fish and chips and go and watch the sun go down on Chesil. Food is great and batter is always spot on ...

Best fish and chips I've ever had....would recommend wholeheartedly!

Fantastic vegan options! The banana blossom and the tempura samphire were particularly tasty and went down a treat after a rainy walk round Portland.

A wonderful chip shop, just finished eating from here and it was so yummy!

I cannot rave enough about Chesil Chippie, since becoming vegan, I was hunting for a good vegan fish and chip alternative and WOW I was shocked the first time I tried the vegan food from here and every time I have it it never fails to disappoint! The vegan fish and chips is just incredible, I have an intolerance to gluten too and they have the option of a gluten free batter which is so tasty. The vegan calamari is sooooo good too! Nothing I would change about the food, the options are amazing and what makes it even better is that all the staff are so friendly and welcoming. One final thing to mention is the vegan tartare sauce and vegan curry sauce - ABSOLUTELY DEVINE!!!!!! I even recommended this to some of my family who aren't vegan and they were so impressed! Thank you Chesil Chippie for being so amazing and providing such a diverse menu :)

The food is good and staff friendly but you may have to queue . Click and collect is available but you have to be early
