Love coming here . Super friendly and great food

Great fish and chips, also love the Bacon and cheese burger with sauce and salad.. can’t fault anything, the staff are friendly too 😊 highly recommend

Food is great and it comes out really quick it’s a bit quite in here not much talking just very dull but it’s a great place to get a quick easy chippys defo recommend

Just visited here after finding it on Google with great reviews. It certainly didn’t disappoint, great food, service & highly recommended. Well worth a visit. Will definitely visit again when I am next working down here

The chip portions are very generous and the fish is always fresh and a lovely light batter. Definitely recommend the food and service. Friendly owners.

Fantastic fish and chips The family who run it are are Fantastic

Adjusted review due to response from owner I was only asked if I wanted sauce on the burger there was no mention of salad you didn’t ask (I am also not a mind reader). The chips may have come out the ground last week but they do require frying these were barely fried and greasy they weren’t cooked all basically. The owners repose and you can see from other responses they clearly think that they are right all the time and have excuses to try and blame the customer. The food was well below standard. Chips are supposed to be crispy on the outside these were soggy and not cooked. Maybe the owners should take more pride in their food actually cook it and less time trying to blame the customers in their review replies. In what I would expect from the supposedly best chippy around the food was far far from that. To the owner I hope that you continue to do well and that your attitude with customers doesn’t catch up with you as I’m sure the more of these you respond in that manner will put a lot of people off. Unfortunately when we got home we realised the quality wasn’t very good Chips were barely cooked very under cooked a very greasy Burger was pretty poor had no salad (wasn’t asked) but usually comes with some and not Savaloy was nice as usual Battered sausage was also nice We have been here numerous times but think this will be our last unfortunately

Best Fish and Chips around! Fast delivery and always HOT!

Well we thought we would have a change in Chip Shop. Sadly, even though the service was great, the atmosphere friendly we will go back to our usual shop. The food was cooked fresh but not to our usual liking, plenty of chips but not cooked enough and the price seemed too much for what we were having. I know prices have gone up etc. etc. but if you find a place you enjoy sometime better to stay with it. If you fancy a change or are passing certainly do not rule them out! It is all down to personal preference.

Probably one of the best cod and chips I've eaten. Will definitely be returning.

Freindy staff, very, very good qulity fish, well battered, lots of fish. This is the first time I've left a review on battered fish, its worth it.

Absolutely lovely the fish and chips were spot on, lovely fish with light crispy batter lovely flakey cod. This will be our go to chippy from now

Very large portion size and the workers were very friendly

Unfortunately, I cannot say this is "the best chippy in the area". Had the food delivered and whilst the service was very quick and arrived early, I cannot applaud the same gratitude to the food. The chips needed longer in the fryer, they were undercooked, and the Chease and Onion pasty (yes in the photo to the right that is apparently a pasty!) Was the worst I've ever had with hardly any filling inside, looked like it had been nuked in a microwave. With all the good reviews I am very disappointed, I will not be coming back! Many other better chippys - also the chip portion was too big for one, need a small portion!

Lovely fish and chips and the bonus of pensioners portions at lunchtime 😋

Really great fish and chips, huge portions and nice group of fellas that own and run the place.

Fast efficient delivery..food nice and hot..very tasty

Great service from this very friendly bunch of guys, nothing is ever too much trouble and the food is lovely, my kids love the chicken burgers! Cannot recommend this place enough!

Very welcoming staff Food is very moreish and cooked to order will definitely come again if working in the area again

Friendly very good price and good quality of food

Very clean, organised and modern establishment. Parking outside (if there are spaces). Truly excellent chips: chunky, big, full of flavour, with minimal annoying potato 'bits' in your serving (although some strange 'northern-esque' folk 😜 like these 'scraps'). The cod was firm/steak-like in consistency, white and delicious: good quality. The outer batter was fine; the right colour, crispy and not oily. The batter, on the inside, in a few spots, was not cooked enough - it needed slightly longer cooking to be crispier at the fish-batter interface. The food is delivered in cardboard boxes as a takeaway. The boxes are large, and are easy to eat from, and keep the food warm and un-crushed - very good. There are three tables in the shop, which you can eat at. One fish and chips was £11 something, if I recall. I couldn't see any vegan options (eg Pukka pie, or 'vegan' fish) on the very clear overhead menus.

We now use this chippy for our delivery orders for fish and chips, ordering direct from their own website. Service is fast, food is hot, tasty and well packaged.

Always a welcome smile excellent food and service food is amazing.

Guys are always friendly and food is amazing.

Fantastic fish and chips, always consistent, would not think of going elsewhere. Thoroughly recommend this place.

Easily the best chippy in the area. I know family that travel here to get their chippy past other local ones. Always happy and friendly with delicious food. Never have that horrible greasy taste either, very clean. Wouldn't recommend any others.

Good service nice tidy place a variety of food for a fish and chip shop I recommend it.

Really friendly kind staff and food is amazing

great place, good food, friendly staff.

Best fish and chips we have ever had. Also enjoy the scampi and roast chicken. Mum loves the OAP fish and chips. All very happy with the food and friendly service.

The best chip shop in the area by far. Service here is great the guys and their dad always welcome every customer by their first names. The food is great and prices are reasonable but the portions are big.

Clean , tasty , professional. Always had a service with smile and place is spotless

The Cod and chips were very good, not greasy, just cooked right, the only downside was the cost being expensive for two Cod and chips £25

A great local fish and chip shop, lucky to have it on our doorstep. The guys who run it are always cheerful and offer great service. Cash only, no card payments.

Not only is the food a high quality standard that matches the value, The guys that work there make you feel very welcome from the point you walk in to the point you leave. Satisfying customers is their number one aim and they fulfil this everyday of the week. Highly recommend!

Spotlessly clean, fast and efficient service, friendly staff who remember you. Best bit of all, food is by far the best fish and chips in the area.

Excellent fish and chips and friendly staff

Extremely rude customer service

Great place to get chips, but as with most chip shops the chips are so much better when it’s busy, if it’s quite you get slightly cold chips Extra edit, just been charged £5 for one portion of chips 🤬 and this would only feed two people!

Local fish and chips served quickly despite being cooked to order

Quick service, and if you go even semi regularly the nice guy serving will remember your order - a bit embarrassing, but great customer service!

Very disappointed in the delivery i had. Horrible portion sizes and far too overpriced

Decent place to get fish and chips.

Delicious food huge portion of chips. Highly recommend.

How someone can charge £4 for a regular chips and £50 for 4 fish and chips and 4 pots of curry extortionate prices £30 max back up north in hometown of Grimsby 🐟 and premium fish to not cod. Batter was undercooked chips where soggy.

Lovely fellas doing a great job

Lovely large piece of fish even for a medium fish and chips. Delivered quickly.

Best fish & chips we’ve had for a long time, 1st time we’ve ever bought from this shop and won’t be the last, delivery on time and all a good price. Well done 👏

Very good food and always do friendly

Excellent fish and chip shop and friendly staff.

Good prices for excellent fish and chips with a delivery service, always get plenty. I have moved further away from the chip shop but luckily enough they still deliver to my new address. Won't go anywhere else.

Lovely food! Chips weren't greasy, and plenty of them! Battered sausage done really nicely too. And all freshly cooked.

Great service and very good food

Excellent service, very friendly and engaging. Fish and chips are tasty. Fish is very tender.

Top chippy, top guys who own/work there. Good food at good prices. Quick and easy online ordering. Won't go anywhere else.

Always Friendly , Polite & HaPpY .. Food Hot , Fresh & Tasty .. Best Fish n Chips by a mile in whole area .. Happy to travel from Clanfield to collect.

Ordered from here and got they didn't get my order right, when I rang up, they couldn't get me off the phone quick enough, won't be going bk

Friendly staff. Quick service and tasty fresh food.

The cleanest, the tastiest and the best friendlies staff in the Fish 🐟 and chips shop ever I've been. Definitely recommend for all the chips, Fish or both Lovers. Thanks guys I will be back very soon. 🐟 🥔 👌😋🤗🥰

Have only ordered a couple of times but both times food has been amazing

Placed an order at 16.50pm with another fish shop via just eat . Waited 1.5 hours only to be told they had cancelled my order for no reason. Called complain fish bar and I had my order in 30 mins and the food was excellent

Quality food, good service and very quick to get the food ready … would recommend

Best chippy best customer service best value best of the best

The best local fish and chips! The fish is always perfect and the owners are the sweetest family! My parents always insist on fish and chips from here when visiting!

I had Rock Salmon and chips. It was absolutely delicious. The staff are very friendly and courteous.

We ordered from here last week. Nothing strenuous, just a burger, some chips, a sausage and a Cod. Very basic things for a chippy should've been no problem. Arrived relatively on time but they forgot the fish....in a fish and chips order. This was a treat from myself to my parents as due to cost of living we don't get takeaways much anymore. I called up the restaurant assuming they'd be apologetic and arrange for one to be sent. However I was just immediately told I'd get a refund on JustEat. I didn't want a refund, I wanted the fish I paid for. Was told unless I pay a delivery fee they're not coming out for 1 fish, to which I said I'm not paying a fee as it's not my fault they messed up the order. The dude on the phone then gave me this absolute gem of a repsonse; 'I didn't mess up your order, I just forgot your fish'....now to me that sounds like messing up the order but I don't live in the same world the dude on the phone does apparently. After this I was basically told either take the refund or leave them alone. He was not willing to move on this. I might be overreacting but we've ordered from them loads of times, never had an issue until now, but from the only time I've ever had to call them I got the impression they're the kind of people that would spit at you through the phone if they could. Won't be ordering from here again, the food and service isnt good enough to warrant being spoken to like they did to me.

Best dish and chips around, great size portions always lovely delivery drivers, highly recommend

Awful food Burger came wet and soggy Chips were cold

Best fish chip place round here dont go enywere but there

Lovely clean place delicious food never had a bad meal of this place

First class service, quality and prices. Delighted to find the best fish and chips in town and I would highly recommend. No other Fish & Chip shop touches this establishment!

Our first time having a delivery from Cowplain Fish Bar, won’t be our last.…delicious!

Spot on. Easy parking, reasonably priced, spotlessly clean. I was served by an Asian fella with a huge smile Great chips too Highly recommended.

Awesome service, awesome food. Thanks guys 😁

Lovely chips, or at least just how I like them, freshly cooked fish so everything usually nice and hot for when you eat it, nice friendly staff and nice and local with long opening hours, ideal. Sit in option available, always nice and clean, nice place.

The food was very nice but we ordered 2 cod and chips (OAP Special meal) which is £6 each so £12 in total and that charged us £20 and after confronting the cashier about it he acted like he couldn’t understand me when he can speak very good English. I know its a corner shop and this type of thing is normal is most of these places but others beware if you do not want to overpay and get ripped off.

Absolutely great food thank you first time I've used this take away even though I'm local will definitely recommend and use again 👍 👌 😀

Absolutely love the chicken burgers from here! Amazing staff

Excellent customer service! Great quality food! Good prices! 10/10 brilliant local fish and chip shop!

Placed an order via the app. I got a phone call from the owner asking if i had placed a order . I told him yes and he then said because i had left a negative review a year ago after they delivered the wrong item i am banned. I find it very pity and pathetic that a restaurant can not take valid criticism. If the wrong item that was sent a year previously they had fixed the issue in a polite way i would not have left a negative review but to correct that issue i had to wait four hours and only got it sorted because i called three times. Having no drink with the meal and waiting four hours and being fogged off everytime i called was bad customer service. I had ordered a milk shake previously and when i called to tell them it was off i was told it was not their problem as it was within date so can Not be off. So i contacted the maker of the milkshake and sent it to them and a few months later they informed me the bottle had a manufacturer defect hance my milkshake was off and they refunded me. I left no negative review for the restaurant at the time even though yazoo proved it was off, but i left no negative review as i thought it was a one off. But after the wrong item was sent and they acted like they never cared and showed me they do not care about customer service when things go wrong i left a negative review. They try to fog you off or blame you. If you leave a fair negative review instead of learning from it to improve and to be thankful for the feedback they instead ban you. I find it very pity and pathetic. Now their food is on the whole very good. The chips can be a little dry sometimes they are better then elsewhere. The other foods they sell, burgers ect are all very good quality so my issue with them is not the quality of their food. My issue is their customer service is the worse. They blame the customer for any mistake even when it is their fault and if you dare to leave a negative review your banned. I only just these months later read the owners reply which sadly is yet Another lie. The owner said Please go away i told you 9 months ago when you left that review saying that was the last order you had from here so why you still trying after all that time ? You leaving 1 star review means nothing to me as i would not give you even 0 I had two bad experience First i bought a milk shake that had gone off, when i called the owner told me it was not his problem so i had to contact the maker of the milkshake who informed me after sending them the bottle that the bottle had a defect that allowed air in leading to the milkshake going off. I should not have had to go to the maker as if a shop sells you a sour milkshake its upto them to sort the issue and not say its not their problem. The 2nd issue was they delivered the wrong item and kept trying to fog me off and took many hours to correct their mistake. After the milkshake issue i had not left bad feedback but after this second issue i left a review that was balanced but highlightedmy issue. About a year later i thought i would give them another chanceand placed my order and got a phone call from the owner telling me my order is canceled because i am banned becausei left a bad review. Most business when they mess up are thankful for honest reviews. Not this guy. If he messes up your order and you dare to leave a review he will ban you. He has very thin skin and the fact he claims i never placed a order is just typical. In my review i left informationof my first two experiences because without contextmy review would not be as clear. I suggestthe business make their customeras good as their food. Banning someone because they.leave a bad review because they had a bad experiences is just stupid. As for go away, again typical of this thin skinned owner Kinda like when i told him the milkshake he had sold me was sour and he told me "its bot my problrm"

I places my order and instead of a diet coke I was delivered a coke which I can not drink for medical reasons, I was told they would redelicer the correct drink but after a 90 mins nothing arrived so I called and the guy just sorry sorry we forgot then something unaudioable and now nearly an hour later and still no drink. How long should I stay thirsty til I get my drink. Should I just forget it and get another drink and pour the coke you delivered down the toilet. I have been a loyal customer since this business opened but never will I order again as clearly when things go wrong they clearly seems not to give a toss. Only just noticed reply from the shop I had left many postive reviews when i ordered in the past and i even called in the past to thank them. Of course with such a bad experience i would leave a bad review or do you only want postive reviews. Funny thing after leaving the above honest review i was banned. Read my above review and ask did it warrant being banned. Lucky for me their has been a few more chip shops open since this and i order from them.

Go here most Fridays. They are busy but the wait wasn't long and the food was still excellent.

This is the best fish and chip shop in the area. The staff are lovely and the portions are generous. Delicious food!

It's the only fish and chip shop that does gluten free every day

One of the best fish and chip shops I've ordered from. Batter is always lovely and crispy and not full of oil like a lot of other chippys. I've ordered here 3 times over the last 3 months, every time the food arrives hot, at a reasonable time and driver always polite. I especially like the pea fritter.

Beautiful fish and chips. Staff very friendly

Best ever service and good food

It's not just a about the food... Friendly staff providing a fine service to the local community, especially during the unfortunate Covid-19 situation.

Always enjoy the delicious food from here, no complaints at all. Staff are so lovely
