Crispin's Fish Bar in Swale

Popped in as passing pleasantly surprised very good breakfast Only negative was just 1 hash brown surly a portion is 2 ?

Best chips around cod is great too

First time been in there for many years, still very good

Refused access to the car park for several bikers who had stopped off after a funeral escort. Very rude staff and management. Not inclusive at all and very quick to judge others. Avoid going here like its riddled with the plague.

I ordered cod with chips take a way The fish was very nice and taste but chips terrible. 50% landed in food waste bin. Wasting money. I will order only fish next time

Nice rish n chips. Nice people well done

its a bit hit and miss really.depends who is serving and cooking.i would never give it top marks but sometimes you get a fairly decent service and portion and other times ive waited ages for just some chips.sometimes ive been given a really tiny piece of cod,like a childs portion and other times a reasonable size.taste is very average,had better.

Staff are friendly and nice, most things are cooked fresh while you wait, they also offer homemade deserts. I would recommend a visit.

Good breakfast very friendly staff

Lovely food, happy smiley polite staff.

We arrived for lunchtime the restaurant is clean tidy and plenty of tables and chairs, The service was really good, The staff very friendly. We got a table and the staff came over straight away asking if we wanted drinks before looking at the menu the young girl who waited on us was so lovely and made us laugh 😃 she was really friendly asset to the restaurant, When the food arrived it was very hot and amazing great fish and chips lovely flakes of cod which is the best way to have cod great batter lovely chips 🍟 😋 😀 I would defo recommend to all great service great staff great food 👍 😀 thank you all for a lovely meal 5star all the way keep up the good work.

We have been customers on and off for over 40 years but recently try at least once a week. Can honestly say that we have never been disappointed with the food or the hospitality. The staff are always pleasant and helpful particularly now as I recently had a stroke. The food is always tasty and plentiful particularly the breakfasts. Good value.

First time visit today. Only had a medium chips. Chips were nice and fresh. I'm my opinion portion size was a bit small for the £4.10 that I paid. Would probably visit again.

One of the good chips shop in town.

Great little find, a nice well cooked meal. With friendly staff..

Hi I’m go to fish and chips the chips was not cook enough bit bit soggy need be cook bit more It nom good c chips but not time the breakfast is good the chips was cook better

This little cafe has great food and great service always friendly and happy.can get busy in mornings but worth the short wait The breakfasts are simply amazing especially when vicky is cooking she does a amazing breakfast im often tempted to order more well worth a visit

We got fish and chips from here cod was over cook cracking was hard to eat the chips were not nice either dry and hard was talking so one outside said was giving them there last chance 1 won't use for a while as I think mite be local but not quite up to scratch

Hi I’m Michael I go to fish and chips it was nice there was nice lady see I’m ok good service and nice food Nice pace to go to it was so nice go in there make me feel welcome

Brilliant food and my server was brilliant

We were part of a coach party of 52. The service couldn't have been quicker. Very enjoyable.

Children's portions excellent. Cod bites cooked freshly.

Went there as part of a coach party after day trip to London. We couldn’t have been made more welcome. The service was excellent and the generous portions of fish and chips were deliciously tasty and good value for money. Very highly recommended. Will definitely go there again.

Great tasting chips, best in years.

lovely to find a traditional English chippy... chips and curry sauce absolutely amazing.. wow 👌

Well recommend! The breakfasts they do are very tasty as well 👍

Very loud very busy with noisy "locals" that obviously knew each other shouting across the room to each other

Great food! Very tasty! 100% recommend and would gladly visit again!

Lovely food and friendly staff.

Service was very good. Happy chatty lady. Food was lovely and fresh. Nice portion size And didn't have to wait long. Decided to have a pudding (even though we had no room) but the food coma was worth it. Highly recommend salted caramel cheesecake!

Came to visit family and stumbled upon this gem of a restaurant. Good food with generous portion sizes. Nice decor inside with friendly staff. Would recommend.

Took my kids there. Was really nice and fair price.

Consistently one of the best Fish n Chips you can have !!

We’ve been here a few times recently. The staff have always been so helpful and welcoming. We’ve had the most superb fish and chips. Smaller portions available but I take my left overs home for later! Vegan daughter thrilled to have a quorn sausage in batter, mushrooms and chips. At my last visit a choice of instant or ground coffee. Instant for me every time, made my day!

My wife and I fancied cod and chips for lunch so we travelled over Too Teynham crispins fish bar, we ordered cod and chips too take away and Eat in our car, I can honestly say it was superb, we will definitely be going back Very soon, thank you it was cooked to perfection,

Great selection and cooked brilliantly. Staff are what make it. Friendly and excellent at their jobs.

Been visiting for 28yrs. on a regular basis. Food has always been excellent staff are very friendly and the place is very clean. I would recommend Crispin Takeaway and restaurant.

Staff are fantastic, and the food was excellent 👌 and the lady who served us actually new some of my relatives. (Basset) .. thank you .

Friendly service. Freshly cooked and delicious fish and chips at a reasonable price.

Great fish and chip place.excellent food ,friendly staff overall great experience

I have never eaten inside the restaurant so I am unable to comment on that. However, one of the best fish and chip shops around

Had to have takeaway restaurant not open had to wait for food to be cooked large portions of chips no large sausages so had to have small and sit in a cold car eating the food

Had take away plus coffee excellent food and drink great work Crispin fish bar

All 6 of us had smashing food which was served with a smile. The service was excellent and the whole evening meal was excellent value for money

Food is great but is ruined but the rudeness of staff and the dirty looks they give when a autistic child is being himself, it isnt once ive noticed the rudeness and seems to be coming from the lady incharge.

I'm go to the restaurant it cooks below there then in the main one

Nice pace to go to in restaurant is better fish and chips but the chip need be cook more so they are bit more Crispy a bit soft, but is doing a bit more my opinion

A welcoming and friendly restaurant. Our meals were faultless and very tasty. We shall be returning.

A monthly visit with my lady friends

Best take out fish and chips in the area hands down. Very Friendly staff too. Sensible prices.

Lovely place. Great food, great service. Nice and clean. Can get a little busy and difficult to get parking at the lunch rush if dining in but well worth it.

Couldn't fault the hospitality and service. Five stars not enough.

I ordered medium cod and chips the Cod was greasy, over cooked and burnt the chips under cooked. I will not be coming here again

Fish and chips were nice enough, but the service was in slow motion,it looked like it's popular with seniors they were the main customers.

Best chicken and chips with slaw ever

Food is always good, and the service is excellent.

Stopped off for a quick bite - great service - very nice Haddock & Cod / Chips

Fish n Chips, served hot and fresh but likely better to get take out.

The owner gave me a cherry pie newly launched by her grandmother it was delicious

Been there today at lunchtime, very nice young lady at the counter, we had 2 large cod,s and chips with condiments, 2 cans of drink and a gypsy tart and don't forget the large plain sosage while we were waiting, all for £30 .excellent quality. Thank you

1st time I came here the chips where amazing the size was well worth the large status and the staff (a gentleman with glasses and women)where extremely friendly and welcoming. This time round I’m afraid to say was a little disappointing. Went for a small as the large was too much for me last time and got given something that wouldn’t of even filled up my 6 year old and they weren’t that great either I’m afraid to say. The services was poor with the lady not acting like she wanted to be there.

Go here once a month from Sittingbourne,, very light and crispy batter

Beautiful food! Always freshly cooked. Never a long wait for service & food to be on the table. We have a family rule of if we drive pass we have to stop for fish & chips

Chips wasn't very nice they was hot but under cooked

Been many times but this time a disappointment, waitress lovely but service extremely slow . There was only another two tables in , so no excuse , food lacked potion size , quality , my chicken breast burger had been dropped in the fryer and placed into a dry partly toasted bread bun . And my friends sausages were deep fried . Overly priced ....

Best breakfast in the area by far very clean

Staff are all friendly, this place very clean.

Had a lovely meal, we all enjoyed what we ordered & staff were friendly

Had breakfast here that day and its lovely, good quality bacon good sausages, overall fantastic, staff are welcoming and friendly, the takeaway part is the fish and chip shop that is also fantastic, lovely cod they do and value for money, will return but will have to flip a coin for the breakfast or me cod n chips, well done crispins

Tried there yesterday for the first time. When I got home they’d left out items from my order. Phoned them up to let them know and they explained that they were sorry and replaced my whole order on return. Thank you Emily. Btw lovely fish and chips😋

Great little restaurant serving good honest food. Will definitely return at some point.

It was a long time since I last visited Crispin's and was feeling like something on way home from work.i had med cod and chips, unfortunately the fish was very dry almost chewey and the chips were disappointing,quite bland and not really what I expected from somewhere like this at the price.

Service needs to be faster. It wasn't a busy time as well

Lovely fish and chips as usual . Friendly staff, shop nice and clean. Such a good idea using boxes for takeaway food , keeps the food hot until you get home, wonderful 👍

Great place for an English Breakfast

We have now used Crispin's seated area twice now, the food was cooked to perfection and very efficient and friendly staff.

A brilliant place to visit it was busy but the staff were very friendly and helpful. Food was good and I would recommend a visit. Thanks to you all.

Super place. Clean, bright excellent service & fish ‘ chips to die for !!! The very best fish & chips for miles around … thank you, you lovely people .

We just called in for a takeaway coffee. Ordered 2 mocha but sadly they were really awful, the worst ever and definitely overpriced at £3.80 each. Way more pricey than Costa or Starbucks. Such a shame as it is a convenient location to grab a coffee

Generous portions and excellent service.

Tasty fresh and hot ...not used very much but enjoy it when I do eat here

Supurb fish and chips, thin crispy batter, cooked to order with excellent chippie chips.

Only had chips to takeaway .absolutely gorgeous

Yummy fish and chip shop, recommend xx

Haven't been for a few years but quality of food has improved 100% since last visit and staff very friendly so won't leave it as long for next visit. Fish quality 👌

Lovely fish and chips. Get a good size meal there too. Try it, you will like it.

Seemed a nice restaurant, only stopped for a drink. Good parking and staff I interacted with were polite and friendly.

Best fish and chips for miles around. Excellent service adequate parking comfortable seating in restaurant. Take sways good to.

Nice selection and nicely cooked but consistently slow even when ordering something that is ready made...

Always great when we eat here. We travel quite a distance for Crispins which speaks volumes.

We've used the take away regularly over the years but never thought of dining in - until now. The restaurant is clean, simply furnished with plenty of room. We were given a warm welcome by the waitress who was friendly and efficient. Being a Friday we all opted for fish suppers. The food was hot, simply presented, well-cooked and tasty (the fish being flaky with just the right amount of crispy batter) - with portion sizes just about right. We followed up with desserts, of which there was plenty of choice. They even accommodated my request for Gypsy Tart with hot custard - I'm not weird, honest! Two courses with a drink worked out at about £20 per person. An added bonus is that you can park right outside. We'll certainly be going back. Recommended.

Great staff , great service, delicious fish and chips my favourite chippy

Such a great meal,lovely large cod for him with the works and for me a home made steak and kidney pie which is probably the best home made I have ever had . Staff were brilliant and so helpful couldn't do enough to help.it a pity we don't live in the area as we would be regulars.

We previously had visited Cripins restaurant at least once a month and loved the place but illness caused a 6month break. Today we returned and unfortunately I believe it has changed hands and we were so disappointed in our meals. The chips were hard and dry, the fish was wet which resulted in the bottom batter being soggy and the plate becoming wet.Also in the past we enjoyed the local made apple/pear juice on offer but today's choice was tins of tasteless French fruit juice or a milkshake. I'm afraid we won't be returning unlike my fish which as just gone down the toilet pan

We opted for a take-away instead of eating in the restaurant and found the service was quick and efficient and the food was tasty. I was very surprised to see some negative reviews of this place as we didn't have any problems at all.

This place has gone downhill! Chips are not cooked properly, and serve up c4ap fish when you take away. Batter is wooley and fish tastes like it was frozen for months. Used to be much better years ago. There are much better options in Sittingbourne. Avoid!

To be honest I thought the fish was expensive and it looked and tasted as if the fish had been re cooked,like double cooked chips. Batter was very hard and darker than I would expect.

Had fish and chips in the restaurant, Very nice, Friendly staff

The best chips and really nice clean shop, excellent parking

Staff very friendly, food cooked to perfection
