Esplanade Fish Bar in Sedgemoor

My dad wanted fish and chips I suggested coming here because normally it's great but on this occasion it was awful not cooked and not good on value. There large chips isn't value for money hardly any chips, the fish looked like it's got B12 deficiencyand the sausage wasn't cooked, sausage was so pink didn't look good at all, know body had eaten it, it was completely rubbish what a waste of £30.00 it was crap I won't be going there ever again you are going to lose customers if you carrying on serving under cooked food

£3.50 for a takeaway black coffee AND it was only half full - never again - disgrace!!! Wasn't even good coffee and much cheaper to go in a cafe !!!

As Northerners we are very particular about our fish and chips. They were lovely. Good quality potatoes and both fish and chips cooked just right. Fish was cooked well and all served piping hot. They were busy but didn’t wait long

Very well catered for gluten free options. Staff understanding and knowledgeable. Took less than 5mins to get our food. Cod was really good and chips were spot on.

Absolutely delicious, lovely and friendly staff, clean and well accommodated indoor and outdoor seating areas, deals for OAP’s (dad was well happy). The fish and chips was the best we’ve had in ages, overall great experience we would definitely recommend Esplanade Fish Bar! 😊

We had really nice fish and chips here. Very tasty and the staff were very accommodating as I am a Gluton free eater. The food is ordered then cooked freshly and the service is very prompt. The tables and service area were very clean. A very nice meal by the seaside.

Very very disappointing: staff friendly but food - we had chips, a fishburger and a burger - absolutely tasteless. One of the worst melas ever

Family of four had fish and chips which were ok, nothing to rave about. The amount left on plates said it all! Decided on an ice cream which they have a stand outside. Ordered two cones and two tubs, money was taken and waited our turn. Whilst waiting, a freezer came out of shop and put alongside the existing one. The girl asked what we wanted again then said she couldn’t serve us what we had chosen as freezer broke although the previous customers had been!?!! My husband asked for a refund as couldn’t have ice cream we wanted. What followed was disgusting behaviour by a young male member of staff. He said why was my husband being funny (he wasn’t, just asked for a refund) then threatened my husband with the owner saying ‘you don’t want to mess with him!!’ He then said don’t bother coming back - please don’t worry as for many years, we have eaten here and never had an issue, but will NEVER return. Appalling behaviour and reading the previous reviews , I feel he has been mentioned before! Other staff lovely.

We popped in early evening and thoroughly enjoyed our OAP Fish, Chips & Mushy Peas with a soft drink. Sat inside, (clean and tidy), to avoid swooping seagulls outside! Food cooked to order with an explanation that "it will be a few minutes", very friendly service and when it came, it was delicious. It's what we visit the seaside to enjoy, and we did.

Came in earlier with my partner and son. We came in when it was quiet and was informed that they were soon closing, so we ordered food to take away. The food was amazing, me and my son come here everytime we go to Burnham. They guy that served us was very friendly! Will deffo come again.

Went today with family first class service first class fish & chips it was a pleasure Clean tidy could not say more Thank you guys.

Staff very friendly and excellent food. We had Roe & chips and GF Cod & chips cooked to order. Would highly recommend for lunch.

Spotlessly clean,very friendly staff. Lovely fish and chips. Dog friendly. A good place to stop on the way to North Devon.

The best fish and chips in Burnham!! Very friendly staff and very clean. We had fishcakes & chips and the sausage & chips they were delicious. Would highly recommend for a tasty lunch.

Best fish shop in burnham on sea have been many times whilst on holiday. Very clean excellent food and very friendly staff.

Had a road trip to burnham and stopped off for lunch fish and chips were amazing and the staff were all very polite and friendly

Being a local I went to the Esplanade fish bar for a portion of chips for a quick lunch, Server was friendly and chatted while the chips were Frying. Large portion £3-75 passed the chips over to me, Got home and the portion (Large) was so small you could count the chips, 25 mostly small, Myself not having been there for a while was shocked and disappointed. SO IF YOU ARE HUNGRY AND 25 CHIPS (Mostly small) (LARGE PORTION) £3-75 is enough great But last time we as locals will buy from there.

I am gluten free and can not even have a tiny bit I ordered 1 gluten free cod and chips and one normal fish and chips when I arrived home they were not labelled which was was gluten free so I phoned them for them to dissribe over the phone which one was gluten free so to be safe I couldn't eat it and it's so expensive would definitely not be having anything from there again

The lad behind the fryers cooked me a whale of a fish. To perfection may i add. The service is impeccable only thing to make my experience better would be a red carpet 👌

Very polite courteous service. The fish n chip were stunning. Not greasy, fish had thin batter and was lovely. Highly recommended

Amazing, freshly cooked Fish and Chips. Fish was lovely and white, batter Crispy. Chips were really chunky, no little bits. Mushy peas were good. Sat outside, super member of staff brought our plated meals out too us...not a Seagull in sight!

came here 3 years ago when in Burnham and decided was so good last time that we would go again and so happy we did. It is a chip shop with take away or dine in. prices are good and we had the pensioners special which was also good. we dined in you order and they bring the food to your table.Great friendly staff and good food

Lovely seafront fish and chip shop with indoor and outdoor seating. It was so good we are here twice in five days. The staff were very friendly. The ice cream from the attached ice cream bar were lovely too!!

Best fish and chips I've had in years. Very enjoyable .Sat indoors. Nice and clean inside.served on proper plates!

At the tender age of 52, I've had my fair share of fish and chips. Kind of always enjoy it. At home, sat on a harbour wall or in a gastropub. I can tell you with hand on heart, my cod and chips I had yesterday were the best ever. Perfection. Portion size, hot, crispy batter, large flakes of succulent fish. Great chips. Brilliant.

Positives - The fish and chips tasted absolutely amazing, good quality fish, lovely light batter and portion was huge. Negatives- look at the prices properly before you order, we were asked inside, outside or take away. We said outside as there were lots of empty pub bench tables outside the chippy not realising that was still classed as eating inside. The bill for 4 fish and chips, small pot of gravy and peas plus 4 bottles of water was £68! They add a charge on each item for eating inside so prob paid something like an extra £15 for the privilege. We would have got take away and sat on a bench if we had realised what was being charged. There prerogative to do this and our fault for not reading the prices properly. We decided to come inside when we realised and food came on plates which you would expect for that price, but tbh we didn’t really want ( I like eating chippy outside!) and it was as I mentioned delicious but just a very basic chippy cafe for £70 is a lot. I think it was just annoying as we got confused about the outside seating, they need to make it clear you can’t eat your takeaway on the benches outside as you get charged, and maybe make the outside area a lot nicer. Overall - would go again but get a take away and eat on the sea front ! 3 stars as even though chips were good, the experience was not.

Friendly staff and served pretty quickly. Food was decent, slightly on the pricier side though, dinner for 7 of us sitting inside with drinks was more than the wetherspoons 3 doors down we'd been to the night before. Appreciate the chain vs the independent but full menu version fast takeaway.

Stopped off on our bikes to get a couple of portions of fish and chips after a long bike ride. They charge extra to sit inside or on the tables outside but I guess that's fair enough as I think they have to charge VAT if you eat in - it's the same in Pret so blame the government, not them. It's literally a ten second walk to eat them on a bench the seafront, which is what we did. The staff were really friendly and the fish and chips were delicious - thanks guys!

Cod and chips- ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Actually the best fish I’ve ever tasted x fluffy, cooked to perfection and tasted beautiful…compliments to the chef

Return visit and still very good. very polite and attentive staff very good food all cooked to order and clean throughout including toilets. OAP specials and gluten free options available.

Visited this place on 20th August, it was pouring with rain but as there was big umbrellas outside near the pavement we decided to sit outside because it was warm. Had to pay for a cheap plastic bag to take it away outside the cafe,...

Think twice before you eat here. We went for their special offer for pensioners. Says £8.50 on the board however, beware £10.40 eating in. The size of my husband’s fish was very small and as l don’t eat batter there wasn’t much fish left. They...

We decided to vist this establishment after we had been setting up for comic con in Weston-super-Mare and in the past it's always been a nice place to eat we walked in and the place was empty which we thought was good but it should...

They do not take cash Very expensive chip shop with rubbish portions for the price. Gray like water !! Clearly just a seasonal chip shop hammering the food at high prices Never again

Really good customer service and food. Was able to eat in and there were several high chairs available for my friend’s son to sit in. Quick preparation of food and it was nice and hot. Thank you very much to the friendly staff

Card Only ! Quand on est touriste étranger (ue) et qu’à chaque fois qu’on paie par carte on nous facture...

Still charging to sit in. Need to look after customers as it’s they who made this a great fish and chip shop. The fish gives the ultimate sacrifice. Don’t blow it

The best fish and chips I've had in years and the customer service was brilliant. We sat inside and listened to the guy serving. Probably the best customer service I've ever come across. I thought that the prices were correct for the quality of the...

Very expensive prices so expected far better than average food. £29 for cod& chips and chicken and chips, couldn't afford to buy drinks with our lunch at those prices! Also sauces served in single use sachets even when eating in, huge waste of packaging. Would...

The prices of the meals are pretty expensive compared to the sizes. The large chips wasn’t even the size we would get as a small back home. However. The food was delicious and the best fish and chips I had all week ( I ate...

A pure example sadly of greed here, £13.75 for two sausages and two small chips to takeaway, yes I know we didn’t have to pay that but the children were hungry and we like to support local business where we can, I wouldn’t have minded...

We both had the OAP special of cod, chips,beans and a drink for £10.20 each. Very good value for money. More than enough chips for us and a reasonable sized piece of fish. Excellent customer service. Very friendly staff.

Always called here for fish chips and curry sauce on our way to our camp site BUT this year we’re GOBSMACKED . Ridiculous prices £10.80 for a piece of fish ! So over £60 for 4 x fish and chips To top it all a...

food very expensive and poor 10 pounds for some chicken nuggets and chips and a gravy without a drink and extremity small portions for what i was buying.

Service with a smile but the fish and chips are also lovely. The chip shop is placed right beside the beach so you can also enjoy your takeaway on the beach. Super service 😀

Day out with my wife and we stopping here for lunch. Staff were very friendly and efficient. Cod was excellent, thin crispy batter and beautifully cooked with large white flakes and a good size. Chips were crispy outside and fluffy inside and not at all...

One cod and chips, one haddock and chips, one can of Coke, one cup of tea, £32. Very poor quality fish would not recommend

AVOID,AVOID,AVOID NO CASH ALLOWED, is it not legal tender or did they take £10k of tax payers money (government) -although apparently it's from Mastercard - to go CARD ONLY. And on top of that prices all gone up and they now charge to eat in....

Also: das typische Fish & Chips war ok. ABER: es gab auch „Burger“: ein trockenes Brötchen mit einem Stück trockenem...

The best fish and chips EVER, we have visited many times and the food is always first class. Can't wait to come back.

WELLS Holiday (10-05-23) What an I say ordered 3 meals and served by a nice helpful guy, sat out front with my wife, dad & dog Simba, bought tea & coffee to table, food soon followed and oh my god it was fantastic!!!! Cooked to...

Rude Slow and prices gone through the roof , Used to be a great Fish and Chip shop no more Rude staff , slow Service , and now prices are sky high , Appreciate things have gone up , but now so much can eat...

We decided to eat in and have fish and chips whilst in the area. You can eat in or takeaway if you wanted to eat on the sea front. Restaurant was beautifully clean, toilets were spotless. Fish and chips were out of this world, I...

we have been going to this shop for years yesterday we drove from Herefordshire for lunch To our surprise and shock we were told to sit in there is a cost of £1.50 each which we had to pay.......interestingly three adults and six children came...

We sat in to eat due to heavy rain, small portions (not particularly well cooked) only to be charged an extra £3.00 for the privilege of sitting inside to eat our food. This surcharge was added to an already overpriced undersized meal. Money seems more...

We called in today, Easter Sunday, as we'd made a last minute decision to go to Burnham and didn't take any lunch with us. We've visited this place before COVID and there was no change at all. The food was absolutely amazing crispy, fluffy chips....

Having visited this restaurant before for lovely gush and chips we were so looking forward to going again. Omg the difference in the service was diabolical, and how they can now charge £1.50 per person (even kids) to sit on a bench outside is disgusting...!!!...

Visited today as have done many times before when in the area and have always received good service and food.Today was our last visit due to the fact you now get charged £1.50 a head (even children) to sit down and eat inside or outside...

Extortionate prices for awful food and awful portions. For the price you pay and the amount you get you’d think you’re eating in a Michelin star restaurant.

went there last monday 27/03/23 lovely food great service, ate outside on their benches went today sunday 02/03/23 8 adults 4 children signs put up now saying £1.50 each person eating in or outside on their benches things got a bit irate after the owner...

I was so surprised and delighted to get amazingly good gluten free fish and chips. The fish was especially good with a super crispy batter. Highly recommend.

Great fish and chips. The batter was crispy, chips gorgeous and mushy peas were great highly recommend a visit they had an oitside seating area for dogs as well

The first thing that was clear, the shop is very clean. The staff are very friendly I was travelling along the coastline when we found Esplanade Fish Bar. We had our meal inside. When the food arrived it was hot as it was cooked fresh...

Omg! Simply the BEST fish n chips. The curry sauce is to die for. Tasty, non greasy, adequate portion. I highly recommend this place.

Best fish and chips I've had in a while . Not cheap but large portion..they don't do mini fish and chips...crispy batter hot white fish

Did not take long to order, bought quickly to my table, fish was cooked good, staff were polite and friendly, very clean and tidy

This cafe is hands down the best along the sea front. We have ventured to others but they are not a patch on this cafe. AVOID BAY VIEW at all cost-rude staff and over priced!! Willing to pay the extra for lovely staff, lovely service...

Was staying in Burnham but the hotel restaurant was closed, our friends volunteered to bring us fish & chips from the esplanade fish bar, lovely food served by Joe with the ginger beard who was really nice to our friend.

Good service, fast food, good quality. Great value for money as the kids meal was a substantial quantity plus an ice cream. Food was good quality and very tasty.

Came in on a busy weekend and the food was excellent along with great customer service from the friendly staff, I will definitely be coming back 👍

We visited on one of the hottest days of the year and they were really busy, however the efficiency of their serving staff meant we didn’t wait longer for our order to be taken. It’s the same price regardless of eating in or take away,...

Check with your local chippies who offer better quality at cheaper prices. Portions were disappointing and extremely small. As a first time user who lives in Burnham you won’t see me a 2nd time.

Absolutely disgusting experience and ruined what should have been a lovely family day out. Our group of 15 made 3 separate orders, all seem fine initially. Our order came out and compared to my sister we had half the amount of food (same order). I...

We visited here on a busy Saturday afternoon and the service was excellent. There was no space for us to sit. So a member of staff kindly opened the back of the restaurant for us..The food was lovely and the batter was light and crispy..It...

I'm normally a frequent user of another fish and chip shop in Burnham but standards there have fallen in my opinion so have started looking for an alternative locally. The Esplanade will not be the one. After trying several lately this is the worst standard...

Worst experience I have ever had, found fish to be thin and over cooked, chewy and not very nice, when I tried to return for a replacement, I was told I had eaten most of it , when I explained I had not that's all...

We go here every visit to Burnham-on-Sea now, a couple of times infact...not had anything bad to say as yet. Fish cake is decent, kids love the battered sausage, I've tried it and would happily order that also. Recommended.

Excellent quality cod and chips. Batter was crispy and freshly cooked, good size piece of cod with plentiful chips

We ordered our meal - 1 portion of cod with a small chips, and 3 drinks. They could have literally served us immediately, it would have taken all of 1 minute, if that. We took our ticket and after 15 minutes waiting outside, hearing the...

Came inside this establishment today for food, ordered fishcake, chips x2, 1/2lb cheeseburger +curry sauce ,water and can of pepsi. Cost of 17.40 not at all bad, good quality- and clean. Tables crammed very very close together, couldnt sit on one table without almost sitting...

Chip shop with seating indoor and picnic benches outside.not the cheapest but the food was good.plenty of seating inside.outside has views over seafront. The staff were friendly and polite but. Could do with a bit more attention to detail.for example had to ask three times...

I asked and was told this place was gluten free but when I asked if chips were cooked seperate I was told everything was cooked together, We took a group of brownies which of one is gluten free, very disappointed as this place advertises this...

Dry clean, efficient looking fish and chip shop on the sea front. Fish was fresh,y cooked and looked good. Batter was nice and golden. Reasonable potion of chips. The haddock was incredibly dry. Not at all moist. Tomato ketchup, 50p per sachet!!! Toilets were very...

Five stars for this super little fish and chip place. The staff were extremely polite and helpful and the food was delicious and super fresh. We would highly recommend this one to anyone visiting Burnham.

A lovely cafe type restaurant located on The Esplanade, near The Pier. Staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant including the toilet was clean and easily accessible. The seating area inside where we were sitting was quiet but there were lots of takeaway customers during...

These chips were hot-enough but lacked any crispness. They had likely been stored for far too long - although they were busy when we visited. Portion size was generous

The best gluten free fish and chips we've had in years. Just make sure you don't eat anything else in the day the portion sizes are huge.

Not as good as Superchips in the High Street. Miserable manager should get a refund back from charm school

What could be better than eating fish and chips in the spring sunshine this lunchtime by the sea side! Freshly cooked to order, proper fish and chips. Only fish and chip shop that I have been to that served breaded plaice which was lovely with...

Good fish and chips, and excellent curry sauce. Only thing letting it down was the horrid plastic trays that it’s served in and the fact that it was a bit greasy. Friendly helpful staff, clean loo

Fancied scampy and chips to take away for a long journey ahead and Esplanade came up as Google Map's second choice from my family's location. Got 3 portions and I don't regret it. It was amazing and hit the spot, making for a pleasant journey....

Popped in on way through as looked busy. Wow, Best fish and chips I've ever had. Great service, all staff really friendly. Never had batter like it, soo tasty. We all thoroughly enjoyed it and will defiantly come back next time we come to visit...

Good food, bargain prices, friendly staff and clean facilities. Proper fish and chips! No rubbish green spuds, tasteless fish or watered-down vinegar here.

Gorgeous fish, fab chips and the best curry sauce I’ve tasted in many a year. We chose Esplanade from the TA recommendations and it didn’t disappoint - so much so we came here twice during our holiday. Great service, lovely food - great choice for...

Rude owner I ordered fish and chips for my wife and me And chicken burgers and chips for my 2 daughters Ours came out cold as if they jumped out the sea when served to our table outside When I went in the girl behind...

Visited this chippy yesterday 4RT after a very long journey. The lady before us have missing items. So I checked the first box which was fine thinking the second box would be ok. But curry sauce was missing which was a bit annoying as it...

Thought I’d would be nice to pick up some fish & chips two people in front had to wait 35 mins for order just two cod & chips take out , thought they were out catching the fish on a boat !

Excellent I can't say more.....Wonderful perfect cod lovely chips my partner and I loved it I would recommend to everyone in Burnham and beyond we always came before the pandemic........
