Great fish and chips at great prices! Always go here for their cod bites and amazing portion size, we get 1 portion to share between 2 and still struggle to finish them.

I’ve been using this shop for 30+ yrs & delivery since covid ! Tonight I had a bad experience with the rude delivery driver (was already late) & not giving me my food until I gave him my phone no ! Last 3 digits ! I said my no & he was adamant I gave him the last 3 digits only! I had a crying toddler & barking dog & he could see I was struggling! Eventually when he gave me my food, I asked him for his name, & he point blankly refused! His a male version of a Karen & I will be speaking to the owner

Ordered food which kept being pushed back on timescale. Waited over an hour with a pointless phone number they never answer. Rings and goes to BT answer phone. Absolutely useless as we enjoyed using this Fish & Chips. Never again Cannot comment on atmosphere. Waste of time.

Once the old boy retired at the hilsea fish bar , I have moved to excel as I didn’t rate the new Turkish owned one . The fish and chips here are much better , good portion sizes and cooked to perfection. These are my new go too . Can’t wait to go again !

The scampi and cod were both extremely overcooked and the chips came with so much oil. I will however order from here one more time to see if it’s better next time as I always like to give 2 chances.

I popped in to get a single bit of fish purely to make a toast to my mum. Everywhere my mum went she had fish and chips, anyway I can honestly say this is the worst bit of fish I've ever had in my life. It was disgusting, skin still on it and not fried to make it crisp. Absolutely will never ever set foot in this place again, it was shocking.
