Epton Ltd in East Lindsey

We were having a stroll around Skegness and my wife said she was rather peckish so, being by the seaside, fish and chips it was . The sea front were doing a lot of business but I went to the old part of town and we saw this old fish and chip shop saying they've been serving fish and chips since 1929 ,so I presume they had got the hang of it by now . Large fish and chips was £10 and so we shared a portion . What lovely serving it was as well . Fish was well cooked , the batter crispy, chips were lovely to and plenty of mushy peas . Top value for the money and a reminder of how lovely fish and chips can be . So stroll away from the tourist traps for 5 minutes and treat yourself

Went with the family and had great fish and chips ! Portions were very generous and great price . Will be definitely be back

We went to a nearby fish and chip establishment firstly and left after 45 mins wait for a meal we ordered but never arrived. We came across this lovely fish and chip establishment by accident. We were shown to our table and were immediately given a menu. We didnt want to order anything big as we were just a bit hungry. We decided on child fish chips and peas. My goodness the fish was in two halves, plenty for a small adult portion never mind a serving for a child. Plenty of proper chips and mushy peas. The fish was beautifully fried, not greasy and the chips were crispy and the peas were served in a separate pot. A lovely meal and would recommend Eptons. You had to go to the counter to order and pay but your meals were brought to you. Lovely staff and a great place to dine. Would recommend to future customers.

Excellent you won't be disappointed.

Best fish and chips I have ever had.

Rude staff had one woman come out shouting at me because my puppy was asleep on my knee. Food was disgusting can see now why the tables out side all had old full meals on them

Great fish and chips great service and very friendly and clean very nice pot of tea

I went here with 3 small grandsons yesterday. The staff were all smiling and very helpful. The girl that took my order was very patient while they were deciding what they wanted. Plus, I can honestly say, they were the best fish and chips I have EVER had. Thankyou so much.

Been going to Eptons for years.We wouldnt go anywhere else

Had lovely fish and chips sat outside on a table in the sun. Not the cheapest but certainly the best in my opinion for this long outstanding fish and chip shop/restaurant in Skegness.

Quite a wait but when it came it was beautiful really hot and fresh.

Beautiful fish and chips and very reasonably priced for the large portion including a side would highly recommend.

Baroness of many chins had a tasty meal here

Visited yesterday, chips were brown, the fish had the skin on and didn’t taste very nice. Bread and butter was the best thing. Shan’t be returning

Not been here before but will definitely be back 5*

Every time we come to Skegness we visit this chippy. Think this will be the last time. It’s really gone downhill. Fish was terrible.

I had fish and mushy peas the fish was all batter

Called in today as on a day trip,sat inside,we ordered the large fish,chips and peas,couldn't fault the meal the fish was huge and cooked to order,my only gripe was the tables outside had smokers on them and a large double glass door was open and the whole restaurant was full of there cigarette smoke.This is the only reason I give this a four and not five score.

A traditional fish and chip shop and restaurant located in the shopping area of Skegness. Food is ordered at the counter and then you take a seat in the restaurant or outside and on your receipt is your order number which is called out as the server brings your food. The portion size is good and the fish and chips were lovely, hot and fresh. I've dined in this restaurant many times over the years of visiting Skeg and have yet to be disappointed.

Really gone down hill. Used to be a great fish and chip shop. Noticed that they are now serving fish and chips in a box instead of a plate. Can't fault the gals that bring you your food and drinks. Friendly and hard working. We ordered 2 fish and chip meals and a pot of tea for 2. £29.50 !!! Really expensive. The fish was gros. Undercooked and mushy and the peas were lukewarm. The chips tasted like they had been cooked hours ago and recooked. Sadly we left nearly all our fish. Annoyed that we had wasted £29.90. One positive was the tea was nice. Basically its an indoor take away. Noticed that they had cramped in more tables and chairs as well.

Not the best. Wouldn't recommend.

Called in here on recommendation from trip advisor.. by 1230 the restaurant was full …that speaks volumes. You order at the counter and they are the brought to your table Ours arrived within 10 mins , piping hot and very generous portion The two person team worked extremely hard and could perhaps do with extra help to take the pressure off

Absolutely beautiful fish and chips. The best chippy in Skegness. Large portion sizes. Spotlessly clean and friendly staff

Nicely cooked food, friendly service.

The best fish and chips ever. Made our valentines day even more special with such a lovely meal and friendly staff

Not just a excellent fish and chip shop restaurant but a consistent one! As locals we wouldn't go anywhere else. Staff excellent and food excellent!

Nice fish and chips, everything perfectly cooked and not oily at all highly recommended

The best fish in chips I’ve had in a long time 10/10

Excellent quality deal and greatly appreciated on our day out. Eptons never fails to disappoint. 😎💙🇬🇧🌞😻👍

Best fish chips in Skegness!! Good staff and quick service we have been coming to Eptons for the past 3 years

Fabulous chipshop, Food cooked to order, so waited a bit of time, but worth the wait, Fish was perfect, Chips were amazing, Kids meal deal was amazing value for money. Can't fault it.

Best chips I have had in Skegness. Great customer service. Great food. When I had ordered was told about a deal available too. Will be my go to place got food when visiting Skegness

Best value and quality chippy in skegness. Good sized portions of good food. Come back all the time.

Lovely fish and chips, very well cooked, not too greasy. Good size proportion for your money. Worth treating yourself! Fish and chips always taste better at the seaside

The best fish and chips in Skegness 💯

Good food plenty of it clean with friendly staff

As good as they get in Skegness

Fish and chips are really tasty and good proportion. Very filling. Prices are good for the provided food. Would recommend this place

VERY VERY VERY GOOD FOOD AND SERVICE

A lovely clean tidy chip shop/restaurant with good value meals ..interesting history of the chip shop on the walls with nice seaside pics on the walls..this is whete we'll be having our fish and chips in the future!!!

Fast service clean place nice staff good value for money

Outstanding fish and chips,staff really friendly.

Excellent fish and chips, excellent staff,been coming here for years.The fish and chips are cooked in beef dripping which is the traditional way to cook them.

Always go there when in Skegness enjoy it every time

Always a good place for fish & Chips in Skeg

Great food as Always , but meal deal has gone , prices are up but now I'm eating with wooden cutlery from a box , now the teas not in a pot ieither it's in a takeaway cup , slightly disappointed

Delicious as always, fish is lovely and large and the batter beautiful, mushy peas are very tasty, and chips gorgeous.

Spotlessly clean, friendly family run fish and chips shop. Traditional fish and chips. Huge portion sizes, fish as well as chips. Good cup of tea provided. Since covid served on paper plates or boxes, but presentation has remained really important. Staff friendly and obliging should you have a query or request. Definitely would recommend family and friends to eat there. Excellent fish and chips.

Lovely dog friendly cafe, delicious fish and chips served with a side order, bread and butter and a drink all for £9.75 per person. Freshly fried and delivered to our table, would highly recommend.

Great service and chips and chips excellent. Additional seating outside.

Excellent fish ,chips and peas,good service,friendly staff

Best cod I've had in a long time. Good service. Slightly on the pricey side.... but the coffee is good and also quite cheap 👍

found eptons down chip pan ally, we were told by a lady while in skegness.we both had fish and chips,very nice. we will go again when in skegness, which says it all.

Whilst visiting Skegness on route to another fish & chip restaurant we walked passed Eptons and liked what we saw. At £9-75 for a large haddock, super chips cooked in dripping and peas with bread & butter and a pot of tea. All the food was freshly cooked and high quality. The only criticism was margarine on the bread instead of butter. If in Skegness again would definitely make a return visit.

£9.75 buys a supper for one. Fish n chips, a side, bread & butter & a drink. Was the best fish n chips ive had recently. been years since i've been here but its so far one of the nicest in the area.

Had the fish, chips and peas here this week, last time I visited was 3 years ago. Nothing significant has changed. Friendly enough staff and the food all looked freshly cookedv and was a decent size portion although if I had to pick fault the fish was still a little mushy. As other posters have commented, the only option here is "fish and chips" with no mention of the fish type but I was told by the lady who took the order that it's all haddock. A previous poster mentioned it's now paper plates and plastic cutlery. On my visit on August 2022 it paper plates (fairly substantial) but was metal cutlery.

We always used this fish and chips restaurant unfortunately on this occasion the standard had dropped and the prices increased. When you used to go in it was waitress service but now you have to go to the counter to order. Unfortunately the worst thing now is the food is now served on plastic plates and very cheap cutlery and not metal. I would hate to think how much waste plastic this shop is now using. For this reason we will not be returning again

Very good fish and chips,good service

We always eat at Eptons when we are in Skegness. Came on the Jubilee bank holiday and it was very busy, but still the same great service and food. The Classic Meal Deal for £11 is unbeatable value. Superb fish and chips, a side, bread and butter and a drink are all included. We'll be back!

Lovely meal fish is to die for good size portions lovely staff

A great family run Fish and Chip shop and restaurant. Friendly staff. Everywhere very clean. Lovely fish and chips, huge portions Nice cup of tea. Just let themselves down as the peas were not very hot and they forgot the bread and butter, which was included in the meal, but I was so overwhelmed by the size of the meal I didn't realise until afterwards, couldn't have managed to eat it anyway. We have always chosen to eat here when visiting Skegness and will continue to do so.

Over in Skegness this afternoon. from Waddington. Went to our favourite fish and chip restaurant., Eptons. Disaster! They no longer have waitress service. You order what you want at the take away fish and chip counter,then find a table. Your order is brought to you but on a paper plate. Looked as if you had to use the awful little wooden knives and forks. Place looked scruffy.. We didn't bother. to go in. For over 50 years they have always had proper plates and cutlery + a waitress to take your order and bring it to the table. Now it is like MacDonalds, Not what we want and I daresay many other people too. Far too many people eating takeaways out of the packaging at home and now restaurants are doing virtually the same thing, NOT acceptable! . We found a very clean restaurant with proper waitress service, plates and cutlery down the Seaview end of Skegness whose fish and chips were outstandingly good and that will be our restaurant of choice in the future.

It is a shame that after all these years of eating at Epton fish and chips It has decided to change its service Fish and chips come in a take away box no table service and you have to order at the counter. Haddock and chips, with mushy peas and a cupper for two for £21.70 I said to the lady last year you could get a set meal with bread and butter for £20 On a plate I will try the other ones in the town.

Very nice food and very friendly staff it's a must visit fish and chip shop

Came across this place while strolling round Skegness what a find a rather delightful young lady put the closed sign up as we were parusing the menu the young lady in question actually sorted out our choices and kept the place open while we ate our food which was in our opinion outstanding so to sum up Great staff, great food for a great price nice clean place to dine cannot fault at all cannot recommend this place enough thanks for looking after us

On a Short Break with Friend. Best Chips I have Eaten. For Some Time. Wait for them. Well Worth wait . Large Shipping Order. Before us ! Very Popular Eatery. Can Understand Why. Following Day. On opening. Sat inside. Had enormous Fish ! Very Tasty. Friend had Chips. Both had Teas. Cold Morning. Took Takeaway to My Friends Mother. Resident of Skegnes. She is Very Lucky. Would Love a Quality Chip Shop. In My Home City. Fried Excellence Indeed!

Food was delicious. Nice and clean. Nice people

Always used Eaton’s which is great,however,I have noticed the fish is getting smaller and smaller(all skin and batter),please get back to giving value for money as you do charge quite a bit for your food.

Best fish and chips we have had in years

Came friday had the fish special Was very greasy and tinned mushy peas didnt enjoy at all

Amazing fish and chips well recommended

Best fish and chips I've had in ages

Always visit Eptons when in Skegness. Really disappointed as food served in a box with wooden knives and fork. The food was good but come on get back to plates etc

Still serving food in cardboard boxes, not very organised with social distancing and disinfecting of tables afterwards was none existent....I witnessed a quick swipe over with a grubby looking cloth!! Not good, I wouldn't go back.

Best haddock & chips I’ve eaten in a very, very long time Special included drink, side, bread & butter Awesome ⚠️ large portions 😮👍

Used to be the best in Skegness. Called yesterday though and sadly it’s lost it’s tradition and quality. Eating in is served in a take away box not a plate and hardly welcoming counter staff. It’s a real pity as in the past 40 years I’ve visited this chip shop it was always excellent.

The best chippy in skeggy. The fish is budiful, the best I've had for ages.

Have to say that the young man at the till was polite. I asked for a bag of chips for the homeless man on High Street; £2.50 Sorry I thought that was very expensive; Fish and Chips £8.00 even more expensive; the fish fryer was surley but a member of the Family. I was given a small tray of chips; 50p would have been plenty. However the homeless man was very grateful and although I thought they were reheated from the previous night he said they were good. Sorry but this is a long standing business in Skegness and I certainly won't go again

Stayed 1 week in skegness this was my favorite chippy, lovely fresh chips tasty curry sauce and mushy peas. Lovely staff too, all-round great experience

Really nice chips quick service far better than most fish and chips shop in Skegness

The best fish&chips in town the quality and value is outstanding! Wish they delivered

Wonderful sausage chips and curry sauce only £3.50

Just had the best Fish and Chips I can remember, if you are looking for lovely, well cooked proper Fish and Chips, look no further.

Standards have plummeted since last visit. Been coming here for years. Will try Flippers a few doors down in 2021.

Superb Fish and Chips! Good value and the staff was very friendly and at was well organised during the Covid rules......5 Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We haven’t ate at Eptons for a while due to it being expensive to eat in and not many tables to eat takeaway outside, things have changed. Due to COVID there are plenty more tables outside and if you pay to eat in the restaurant...

Wow just wow. I'm not a chippy person but on a week trip to Skegness I thought I would try this chippy as not only it was eat in to save on tax I was hungry and boy did this place not disappoint. The chips were cooked to perfection and peas and sausage were also excellent. You can see from the food they serve they want a good customer base and I give them 1000% will definitely be using them again. And no this review is not based on the 50% tax reduction.

Excellent fish n chips absolutely massive and very enjoyable, thank you for using the new situation of food for half price what should have cost 7.50 for fish chips was only 3.75 because it was monday ,it Carries for another 2days, give it a whirl...

Lovely fish and chips, dropped a star since my vegetarian wife couldn't eat here as the chips are not vegetarian 🙄

Lovely food .and staff are very friendly

Excellent meal, extremely friendly service, very good value for money. A must for anyone visiting skegness

Really great quality but closed far too often.

Been coming to Skegvegas on a regular basis for over 20 years, and always come to visit this great little Chippy, if you are in skeggy, this is the place to eat, best fish and chips in Lincolnshire.

Went to Skegness for the day the today & this place was recommended to us by a friend who lives locally. OMG is all I can say - the food was amazing and such great value, it was delicious, plentiful and piping hot. There was...

Enjoyed haddock, chips and peas with friends on New Year’s Day. The haddock was the best I have tasted in a very long time and my wife whose appetite is not great managed to eat all of her fish. Batter perfect, fish juicy, mushy peas...

Cant fault the food staff and restaurant I always eat here with my family when we are over in skegness

Very cold November day with the family. We fancied chips and peas in a tray to warm us up. Cooked lovely as usual.

Enjoyed excellent scampi and chips. Left my coat there and they returned it by post with out hesitation. Thank you.

What a low down common looking place the people who work here are nasty rough lot tatty clothes look like builders do not open on time I was ready and waiting went after eleven thirty a very forcefull looking man was Inside i shuddered to...

This place is nasty and disparaging and very forcefull went today after eleven thirty and it was still shut with riff raff worker inside staring out the window instead of getting on with his Job his looked very rought messy and very scruffy is he even English not a place I'd reccomend go to skegness aquarium instead just very top notch
