Has changed hands several times in recent years. At one stage run by a London publican who knew nothing about fish and chips. This is predominately a take-away. Best in Burgess Hill or surrounding villages. Friendly efficient staff. Ignore historic reviews as now back in the hands of experts. New menu Jan 2023. Both cod and haddock nice and thick with crispy batter. Chips hand cut from fresh potatoes. All cooked to order. Busy Fri & Sat pm. Usual range of sundries. Spring rolls good size. Children's menu available. Now open Mondays. Delivery through Deliveroo. Now called Station Fish Bar. Situated on Keymer Parade. 2min walk uphill from Burgess Hill Station. Highly recommended.

The lady who runs here is so friendly and lovely. I had a sit down meal ASI did the previous visit and both times both my mum and I had a perfect meal. Mums fish had perfect batter and said the cod 'tasted of the sea and was fresh, gorgeous and white, and chunky!' the chips were lovely and crisp. My scampi must have been a whole packet worth and was yummy, the mushy peas were really generous and perfect and loved the garlic mushrooms. Can't fault the service as the lady who runs here is just so lovely. I really can't understand the negative reviews on here at all.

This establishment has a restaurant as well as the usual take out service. The portions are generous and the food is freshly cooked to order. I am unable to take batter and the restaurant coat my fish in rice flour which is tremendous giving a golden crisp outer to the fish. The standard is consistently good and we regularly use the establishment which is very friendly.

Like many others we have used Fishers for several years. Of recent times we had not been there-hot summer evenings and fish and chips donā€™t always go together. In my opinion it has gone down hill following the change of ownership. The fish was dry and over cooked. The chips were heavy and difficult to swallow and the pies were rubbery. Looks like we will have to find somewhere else for chish and fips:-(

Hadnā€™t visited this place for a very long time as the other end of town for us. What a complete waste of time, effort and good money. It ruined my Saturday night dinner without cooking and I feel very let down. The fish, despite being fresh, was bland, and the batter was flat, pale and soft; no crispy fluffy bits whatsoever. The chips were even worse and we couldnā€™t eat them; the whole lot went in the bin. They had clearly been refried (not in the new trendy, nice way) and were as dry as sticks. All in all Iā€™d rate them 3/10. We wonā€™t be returning again; what a shame!

I have used Fishers on several occasions for takeaways, the food is always tasty and well prepared, and the portion sizes are very good. The chips aren't greasy but are full of flavor and they are reasonably priced. There can be a bit of a wait with the takeaway service as they are quite popular, especially on Fridays!

I've read some of the recent reviews of Fishers, but as far as I'm concerned, having had one take away, and one sit down meal meal here, I can't fault it. I had a take away in December, and recently brought my wife and a friend here, quite late on a Saturday evening, when we were tired, and VERY hungry. The restaurant was dark, but the lights were switched back on for us, and we were made to feel extremely welcome.

Fishers was once the best chippy in Burgess Hill and we used them for many years. Now they are the worst. The 'large' cod is the smallest piece of fish I've ever seen in a chip shop in my life and the chips coat your mouth in grease like they're really old. We tried it twice just to be sure they didn't make a mistake the first time, but when we were served the same pitiful tasteless and undersized fish we will never go there again. Such a shame, that is our nearest shop, but fortunately there are excellent fish and chip shops in town so I'll travel further in future.

I have been here for take away fish and chips quite a few times since it changed hands and twice in the last week. I think the battered fish is great - less greasy than it was under the previous owners with lovely fish. Itā€™s nice to get home and not find half the batter stuck to the paper which always happened previously. I like the chips too. They hold their shape and are not too greasy.

We have just visited Fishers for a sit down birthday meal for 5...2 adults and 3 children and I'm glad we did!We ordered 2 X regular cod and chips, and 3 children's meals which consisted of sausage and chips, battered sausage and chips, and fish cake and chips.We also ordered side dishes of curry sauce, mushy peas and beans.The fish here is amazing! The batter is so light and the fish is melt in your mouth and came with a quarter of lemon and a generous helping of chips. The children's meals were generously sized with jumbo sausages which the children gave a thumbs up to. This is by far the best we have had in Burgess hill and surrounding areas and would highly recommend a visit to this family run restaurant / take away.Thank you Lucy and Costas! We will be back :)

I have visited Fishers many times since moving to the south side of Burgess Hill some 15 months ago. I always receive a warm welcome and consistently excellent fish and chips. The top quality fish is always cooked fresh to perfection in the lightest and flavoursome crispy batter, and the chips are similarly very good. Having sampled fish and chips from many parts of the country over the years, I can definitely recommend Fishers as amongst the best if not the best. Thank you folks.

I regularly come to eat at Fishers as it is favourite fish & chips shop around. I have tried food from other fish and chip shops in burgess hill and about, but none of them are anything special, but Fishers is very warm and friendly. It is family run and they perform kind service to all of their customers. The place is very clean and by the looks of it they have won a few awards for cleanliness and customer ratings. I always recommend Fishers to anyone who would like Good Food, and Great Confident Service. Looking forward to my next visit!

Bad bits first - Five of us visited arriving at 6PM having booked a table for 6PM, we ordered within five minutes of arrival but waited 45 minutes for the food to arrive. During this time the beer order got confused to a cider order due to a difficult person amongst us, not entirely their fault. A slight whiff of damp in the restaurant, and a bit chilly.Good bits - Clean dining area. Very nice staff, brother and sister make the place work and even though we had to wait an unreasonable time for food to arrive, we were told that there was a big take away order going on at the exact time we arrived.Food - very good - portions are reasonable value, well cooked and very well presented. Take away side of the business very busy, I think they prioritise that side over dining in. I would like and expect to see them do well because they are trying hard and are keen to do well, very likeable people. Good luck to them as they strive to improve.

This isn't a drop in and go place, where the food may have been sitting for hours. Every meal is prepared to order. You can ring first to save time, but to watch as the fish is carefully selected, filleted, then dipped in lovely batter, before it is carefully placed in the fryer. Really makes your mouth water. You stand and watch, tick follows rock, thins' just any old chip shop. THIS IS A FISHERS chip shop. Still enough old adverts my dinner is ready. Keep it up Costas and co.

My partner and I stumbled across this place whilst driving back down to Brighton, never knew it existed but will be going back again for sure.I opted for cod & chips and my partner who is vegetarian went for spring roll & chips. Trying not to exaggerate but I can honestly say that the battered fish is the best that I've ever tasted, the batter was light and crisp, and also wasn't too thick for my liking. I commented that I wouldn't have minded a few more chips and I was then presented with an additional side plate of chips. My partner commented that her food was also very nice too and said that her spring roll was hot and crispy. Service was very welcoming and Lucy (I think that was her name & hopefully got it correct!) was very polite and willing to have a conversation, not just about fish & chips. This place seems to have quite a few regulars, which assured us that the food must be good quality before we even tasted our first mouthful of food. I'm glad to see returning custom to any business. I think that the decor is a bit dated and could potentially do with an update. However, please don't be put off by it because the quality of the food will soon occupy your thoughts.This place is a take away 'chippy' with an added bonus of also being a restaurant for those of you that wish to sit down and eat in. Great family run business with excellent food quality and service too.

I can't speak for the restaurant, which a lot of people appear to speak highly of, but in trying Fishers instead of my normal F&C shop, I was left disappointed with my take-away F&C meal: the chips were pale and a bit underdone but OK, and the fish was a bit on the thin side for a 'large' and the batter was dripping oil, which I think was the most unappetising aspect of the meal. Essentially I think that as the food was being cooked to order it just didn't get the chance to stand and 'mature', which I think would have improved both food items.

We only moved to Burgess Hill in Dec 2013 and hadnt tried any fish and chip shops in the area before. We saw Fishers in passing and thought we would give them a try. We hadnt had fish and chips for ages and was really looking forward to them........what a massive disappointment. The chips were limp and soggy but the biggest let down was the fish, the batter was soggy (no crispiness at all), I scrapped it off and left it in a pile on my plate. We wont be returning and a waste of Ā£12.50. Below average food, was surprised as it was very busy and thats normally a good sign?

The only chippy you need to know about in the town. Good portions, freshly cooked cod and chips always tasty, and cannot fault food or service. Has always been my favourite and now the latest owners have improved everything. Everyone in there is happy and friendly and serve you with a smile. This was proved when they went on holiday and I went to another fish and chip shop. It did not come near to the quality or service so don't bother going any where else in the area. Plus you can ring and order to be picked up 10-15 mins later. I only get take aways but know others who have used sit down part of restaurant and have also said its just as good.

Having just returned from a holiday flight, my wife and I were looking for a quick and easy but tasty meal. Fishers gave us all this and more - the fish and chips were probably the best we have tasted anywhere, and the service was excellent. If you like fish and chips, you'll love Fishers!

Really good haddock, chips and mushy peas. Service from staff in the restaurant is also very attentive and friendly. My new local favourite place for quality fish and chips.

I don't very often have fish and chips as I am always left feeling disappointed with the quality of the fish. However, my family had been out for the day and we didn't have time and couldn't be bothered to make a meal so we stopped off at Fishers on our way home for a take-a-way.The menu was varied as you would expect and although we didn't order it, I noticed that Skate was available - not something many chippies offer ! Other delights included battered burgers and saveloys, and even good old spam fritters. The young man who served us was really pleasant and helpful, even though we changed our minds on the order twice AND asked for everything to be wrapped separately - nothing was too much trouble. Everything (including the chips) was freshly cooked to order which meant waiting about ten minutes but I never mind waiting a little if the end result is worth the wait. The prices were let's say in the upper region for fish and chips but again, I'd always rather pay a bit extra for a really good meal, and fish and chips are already excellent value compared to other take-a-ways anyway.And a really good meal is exactly what we got. The fish was amazingly fresh, I'd be hard pressed to believe that it hadn't been swimming in the sea that very morning ! The batter was just right too, not greasy but light and crispy, just how we like it. I can honestly say without hesitation that it was amongst the best fish I've ever eaten anywhere. The chips were still nice, but a little bit powdery however allowances must be made for the time of year and the quality of available potatoes. I'd like to say that afterwards there were empty plates all round but due to the vast portions we simply could not eat it all - if we had known we might have been tempted to share portions (but I doubt it lol). Everyone agreed that the quality was first rate and it was a hugely enjoyable meal. Can't recommend highly enough, well done Fishers 10/10.

Having used FIshers for the past 20 years or so, I have always enjoyed the wonderful aroma of good fish and chips and the experience of genuine fish and chips fried in a traditional way. Before today I would have always recommended it to anyone and rated it as 5* - However, having been away from the UK for more than a year and once again anticipating some of the finest Fish and Chips around, when I retuned earlier this week I and my whole family (5 of us) were all totally dismayed to find the chips were thick and dry and appeared to have been part processed or perhaps even frozen?. They were simply not the high quality traditional chips we have loved so much and had for many many years. I know the ownership of the shop has changed but had hoped the quality would have been maintained - alas it has not - what we were served with was no better than what you might expect to get in a cheap pub - tasteless, odorless, soft and dry. Come on FIshers - you are supposed to be a traditional Fish and Chip shop - at least live up to that! After all these years I won't be returning - and luckily our town has other very good Fish and Chip shops which will now be gaining my custom

We visit Fishers regularly, sometimes to eat in but mostly to take away and the quality is excellent. We always order large cod and always get a beautiful fillet fried to perfection. The staff are friendly and helpful.

I travel a lot with work so eat out a fair amount! I never find anywhere as good as my local chippy, so when I went to FIshers I was expecting the same fish with soggy batter and the usual old dried out chips. So it was a great surprise to find this is not the case. Everything was cooked in front of me and it was perfect, especially the fish and the portions were pretty big. There were a lot of people coming in so its probably quite a popular local place to eat. Basically the best fish I've had so I will definitely go there again if I am working in the area again.

So what.... It's only a fish and chip shop! Think again. My wife and I had heard some very good and interesting comments about Fishers in Burgess Hill. This is not our nearest town,but as we like fish and chips, and were not impressed with our local, decided to travel the 5/6 miles each way to give it a try.The first thing that we noted was the 5 star award proudly displayed on the door. It was obviously clear on entering that this was no ordinary fast food outlet. Greeting us were two very smartly presented chaps in their pristine whites, displaying wide smiles. The cooking and serving area was well lit and sparkling clean. Prices were clearly displayed with plenty of comfortable seating for customers to relax as they waited for the freshly cooked orders.We were escorted by a very pleasant and chatty waitress named Angela into the licensed restaurant. This is a very well presented area, seating up to about twenty five dinners. The owner himself offered to assist and explain the extensive menu. To our surprise the fish was offered grilled as well as fried. And that's not all, we could even have it skinned. Drinks arrived quickly, mine a large diet coke, and my wife chose free tap water. Both drinks were served from a tray with the water in a small but amble jug including ice.The plaice, said to be medium was large, and my haddock grilled to perfection even included a knob of butter. Chips were very good and the portions large.All staff were kept busy both in the restaurant and take away; this was surprising for an early Wednesday evening.Highly recommended at any time you are in the area.

We regularly visit Fishers when we fancy fish and chips. The owners are very friendly and welcoming and the service always good. We find it so much better to eat in their restaurant where the fish is freshly cooked especially for us rather than take it away and it is a good excuse to have a glass of wine as well!

Fish and chips is not normally something that one can really get excited about. Of course, they can be good or bad with a couple of varying degrees between, but that's pretty much it.Our recent evening trip on 15th March has changed all that. Our friendly waitress Lucy took our order. Our drinks arrived swiftly and it wasn't long before myself, my husband and my mum were tucking in to our Cod and chips and Haddock and chips. The fish (both cod and haddock) had a beautiful texture, it was creamy, white and beautifully cooked. The batter was evenly cooked, crispy, golden and delicious. The chips were lovely too, they were good quality and evenly golden. I also opted for mushy peas which came separately in their own little china bowl as a very generous tasty portion. Our sauces came decanted into their own little pots which was a pleasant surprise, (no grubby ketchup bottles here !!) The portions were generous too, The restaurant itself is very comfortable and everything was so clean.Lucy and Costas have turned eating Fish and Chips into a very pleasant gourmet experience and Burgess Hill is the richer for it. Be it take-away or eat in Fishers will always be our first choice. A big thank you goes to all, keep up the good work, you have a wonderful establishment.Efxaristo !!

We have lived in Burgess Hill for 30 years and we always use Fishers for our Fish and Chips. Excellent food every time. It is also located very close to the railway station. They have an attached restaurant with can also be useful on occasions as well.

It was a cold dark evening, I had to get some food inside me and did not have that much time. I was in the middle of Burgess Hill with a selection of restaurants of varying standards. Where to go? I headed passed the station to see what looked good there, got to the chippy and thought why not. I've not had fish and chips for a long time as it's not my thing really.With no one in the restaurant next to the counter service takeaway I thought they may not be open, but I was shown into the room by the young man on the counter, it was cold in there but he switched on the main heating and also an electric heater next to where he sat me, a couple of minutes later I was warm.They took my order and in a few minutes my meal Cod, chips and cup of tea arrived. Tea in a pot was hot and drinkable, large piece of fish and enough chips both very hot and very tasty. Looking at what was happening in the takeaway area they cooked all food to order so no soggy chips or warm food from here.Really enjoyed this meal and the friendly staff were a bonus all for Ā£10.Oh and if you see the wife remember if you saw someone looking like me in Fishers, it was not me.

Always used to be the best in town... sadly now they are owned and run by some very rude staff and their health and safety standards have also dropped significantly - I witnessed an older man picking up a chip from the floor and put in back in the pot!Avoid this place at all costs! There are many other good places in Burgess Hill

Family run business with very friendly staff. I've used them several times in the last year. My fish was cooked to order and was really tasty and the chips were good too. This is my chippy of choice but the fact that it is so close to the station is an added bonus because you can pop in on your way home from an evening out!Highly recommended.

WOW! Great sized portions, very good quality and not expensive. I'll never use anywhere else from now on. I can only assume the couple of negative comments on here related to the previous owners because so far my experience of this place has been faultless.

I was recommended "Fishers" by a good friend who knows how much I enjoy well cooked fish and chips. I was extremely pleased with the friendly welcome I received on entering the clean, well lit shop and restaurant. The staff were polite and attentive throughout my visit ensuring that I had drinks when I required them. I was served a very generous plateful of fantastic haddock cooked to perfection with light, crunchy batter and chips that were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I was also thrilled with the way my toddler was made to feel welcome by the family-friendly owners. They even gave him a special bowl of ice-cream at the end of our meal which was a really unexpected and kind gesture. We shall defintely be returning for a weekly treat. I cannot recommend this family run business highly enough. I would disregard the old reviews completely and try their freshly cooked food for yourselves.....you will be pleased that you did!
