Fishers of Hunstanton in King's Lynn and West Norfolk

It’s subjective, but after trying a few fish and chip restaurants in the area, for me, this is the best fish and chip restaurant in Hunstanton. Our most recent visit at the Easter Bank Holiday was great. 7 of us ate in the restaurant, it was packed but service was slick and friendly and the food was as good as ever. I think it was £16 for fish and chips and £2.50 for a pot of tea. You can probably find cheaper but in my opinion, you won’t find nicer in Hunstanton. Thanks!

We hadn't booked,so left home early on a Saturday evening. We were shown to a table very soon after arrival. I had a regular cod with mushy peas. Hubby had rock and chips. GREAT SERVICE GREAT VALUE 👍

Fantastic fish and chip restaurant! Great menu, with daily specials available and a good selection for kids. Visited as a table of 8 for lunch and the food and service was excellent. Both the adult and kids fish options were perfectly done. Will definitely be returning whenever we are in Hunstanton. Highly recommended.

Lovely fresh fish, great chips, friendly staff who were coping with a very busy Saturday evening!

We came here for the first time today and I must say we will definitely be returning. The food is top notch! We had the large cod and chips with gravy, normal cod, chips and peas, chicken strips and chips with curry sauce then a kids chicken nuggets and chips all of which was absolutely lovely! On top of this, the service was brilliant. Every member of staff that spoke to us was really helpful and friendly, All of you are a credit to the business. If I could give this restaurant a higher rating i certainly would. See you all again the next time we’re in Hunstanton.

We loved eating here so much whilst on holiday in hunstanton, that we came twice in four nights! Benny is a fabulous character and a genuine diamond, who made our kids feel special, and who called their grandad 'babe, sweetheart and darling' for the first time in his 80 years ! The food is about as good as it gets, and being chippie connoseurs from the grim north, we were expecting great, but were served top drawer traditional fish and chips to a standard which is very seldom found these days. The staff are clearly hand picked for being natural and professional, and everything from arrival to departure was 'next level' . People whinging on about price need to go to the seafront for the crud at the street stalls. It's 2025 and you pay for what you get. Kids, parents and grandad loved every mouthful , not to mention the experience, and it worth every penny. I can't recommend it highly enough - we went to the #1 chippie in whitby but fishers was superior. Love from the scouse mancunians 😁

Had a very nice chippy tea here before seeing a gig at the Princess Theatre. The staff were attentive and friendly, the food delicious and reasonably priced. I would recommend, and look forward to visiting again.

Lovely fish and chips at a good price, great service

Such a pity that such good quality food is so expensive compared with other places we have visited - check the website. The counter service is also quite chaotic at busy times. How about a little more politeness and a few smiles?

Had a lovely lunch there when we arrived. Really tasty and went down well with a cuppa.

always had amazing fish and chips here but not this time - undercooked and soggy batter & very thin haddock - would recommend just for chips they were good but at £35 for 2 for a takeaway not at all good value

OAP Special £11.95 Cod, Chips and Peas, Tea or Coffee, Bread and Butter, best around.

It was a sunny Sunday and Mothers Day and was worth the wait to sit in and enjoy the fish and chips. Staff were lovely and soooo busy. Will definitely be back and book!

Best fish and chips in the area and my husband loves the curry sauce. Staff are so friendly, music is great, perfect place to go. Janet and Mark

We have used this shop for 20 years now , but have decided to stop. When we started, the food was amazing (and to be fair, the fish is still very good) . This is maily down to the quality of the chips, which haven't been great for the last few times. As we come up regularly from Wisbech, we have said that there are several closer shops that serve better and cheaper.

Tiny sausage! I got sausage in batter chips and curry sauce it tasted delicious but the size of the sausage was tiny just trying to make you pay £5 for a normal sized sausage in batter which is ridiculous!!

Never ask a question in this establishment, 4, 80 year old ladies needed seating, so after noticing lot's of empty tables and many people waiting, I enquired as to why, in case they were booked and my elderly party would be left standing .I was then met with a torrent of vileness from a person who is employed to help and care for customers ,please please heed my warning ⚠️ this is toxic behaviour as the next piece of abuse from this employee his sneering refusal to serve the 4 disabled 80 year ladies x TOTALLY UNKIND TOTALLY UNPROFESSIONAL TOTALLY DISGUSTING THE BEHAVIOUR AND PERSON.

Excellent seniors meal, great portion, lovely friendly staff.

Great fish and chips. Super servicee from the brilliant Benny.

Been here many times before and has always been good.. not this time. Staff Ignorant with no manners. Chips very poor and fish ok. We will not be going again... will try Henry's

Had fish and chips on Monday chips were not ederbell

I’m proud to be a supplier for this business but even prouder to be a customer! Besides the food being consistently top notch, the staff really make the experience so enjoyable. Benny is the best front of house I have ever met 🤩 don’t ever lose him!

For what we paid I expected better , think the fish had been kept warm all day , dried up and the chips were no better - won’t be going back ! Awful !

Very friendly staff, good food.

Always eat here on our day trips to Hunstanton they never let us down..

I can't comment on the food or atmosphere from this visit. The greeting was so poor that we walked out and went elsewhere. Have eaten here in the past and been satisfied and was looking forward to returning but.....there you go!

The best fish and chips x beautifully clean restaurant x service impeccable x and the lovely Benny makes every visit a joy xx

I've given Fishers all the stars because you can't really fault the food .But I do think the desserts are quite expensive and I always have a latte and what you get is a small one for the price .

Amazing, in the top 10 fish and chip shops in UK. Lovely size, amazing taste

Exceptional place. From the moment we walked in the service from a lady called Sally made you feel so welcome, she was warm, engaging & set the tone for a fantastic meal. Fish & chips were delicious, curry sauce was the best I’ve ever had. But truly exceptional service! Thank you!

Didnt even get further than the till as the staff were so unwelcoming and rude. Went to Henry's instead and they had friendly and amazing staff.

Don't believe the web site opening times. We were eating in the restaurant and the fish and chips were lovely and crisp but the waitress seemed to be running on a short fuse. She questioned if I had ordered correctly when I asked the mushy peas to be changed for garden peas, a small issue but I know what I ordered and don't want to be questioned when served the wrong food. There was a minor kerfuffle when the waitress started telling arriving customers they were closing at 18:45 and a disagreement then resulted with the customer being asked to leave (from what i heard the customer didn't do much wrong) which soured the atmosphere. The misunderstanding arose from the website stating closing time was 19:00, they closed at 18:45 (close sign went up at 18:30).

We visited here on a visit to Hunstanton. They have a couple of signs saying they are in the top 10 of Fish shops in the country. Well they were obviously having a bad day. 2 small sausage in batter and chips twice, £17 bargain, takeaway ! The sausages were ok, but the chips were inedible, cold & felt like they'd been cooked yesterday & left. My husband went back into the chip shop to ask how can they charge what they do but the chips feel like they were cooked the day before. The man in there who you would think was the manager as he stepped forward to start speaking very loudly at my husband, who didnt lose his temper once, even though this person was trying to get a reaction. My husband is quite a big built man, and this person made quite a few derogatory comments about my husbands stature and his food choices, which had nothing to do with our cold chips. He then asked my husband what he did for a living ! My husband walked away as this person was shouting if you come back im calling the police and closing the door on him, pushing him out of the shop. As you can imagine, we wont be back.

Fishers was closed on boxing day, said on the website open. Great fish and chips, very good ordered system

Got shown to a table nice and quick, then nothing, didn’t get offered a menu… after 10 minutes we left. Understand it was busy… but there were a lot of staff walking around

Used to be better. I don’t know if under new management. The music was too loud and inappropriate. The food was no where near as tasty as it used to be. We used to come here quite a bit. So was saddened that it seems to have taken a turn for the worse. Hope they find their way back to being the best fish and chip shop in Hunstanton.

This restaurant is currently rated No4 in the UK, the other 3 must be out of this world because Fishers in my opinion is the best I've ever tasted in my nearly 60 years. Along with the fabulous Benny at front of house and his amazing staff 10 out of 10 isn't high enough.

Lovely place, benny was very friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend, the place is very cleans and tidy. 5 star all round.

We fancied a trip to the seaside and having never been to Hunstanton, we got on the A47 at Leicester and headed east. After a bracing walk along the promenade and town, what better way than to have local fish and chips. Found this restaurant on TripAdvisor and certainly not disappointed. The staff were all really friendly and the cod and chips were simply amazing. I particularly liked the curry sauce. I can see why they were so busy on a bracing January Would definitely recommend

Super friendly staff and possibly the best fish and chips in the uk! It’s a good sign when you’re full but don’t want the meal to end! Oh, and the curry sauce is amazing! You must come here!

This was our go to chip shop, but there are far better in the town now. The haddock (Minnow) and chips, consisted of a lot of under cooked batter and tough chewy fish (over cooked) how you can undercook batter & over cook fish this must take great skill or reheated fish, very salty Mushy peas( small pot of), chips where okay & the tea was hot & fresh. unfortunately we have to go back as we meet with friends every year, but i will not be giving them a lot of my hard earnt cash, chips only for me. I gave two stars as the chips are ok & the tea was hot & tasty

Terrible and not friendly service.

Exactly on the 7th of January 2025, at approximately 6-7 pm me and my wife decided to grab a bite after a long day's work. The service that we got at the take-out was only obnoxious. The brunette lady at the counter seemed to have a problem with accepting Eastern European and American accents so if you're not within the deemed acceptable clientele - stay away. Even more so - there was a difference between serving us as opposed to the other customers, perhaps also attributed to the melanin I have? Either way if youre a Yank or European or any other nationality for that matter - I'd not recommend the very unfriendliness we experienced. The fish itself was not too bad, but we've had better ones - the atmosphere encountered spoiled the taste.

Took our autistic son for a meal there, staff were amazing especially one young man who made my sons day was happy and energetic very polite and fun amazing place well worth a visit excellent food and food value

I can't recommend this place enough. The best curry sauce I've ever had in my entire life. The staff are so friendly and amazing. It really is the best chip shop!

Went to Fishers today- ordered a large cod chips, peas and curry sauce. Which my husband and I shared. The lady that served me had said it would be large - what we had was enormous and the b st fish and chips we have had for years. Definitely would recommend this shop and see why it has been given top ten in the country by the times.

Wow, what a wonderful place. The food was freshly made, excellent quality, quantity and very well priced. Personal thanks to Benny for being so helpful and friendly. You truly are a beautiful person, we loved your little jokes and humour. You really cheered us up after a long cold walk along the coast. X

Large fresh Cod and tasty chips. Best in Hunstanton.

Had cod and chips for our lunch today, as usual the fish was lovely but the chips were inedible, some were black and they all seemed like they had been refried.

Another fantastic meal at Fishers Hunstanton. Service was brilliant with friendly happy staff. The food portions were much better in my opinion ( not as much on your plate) A fab experience as always Many thanks

Fantastic fish and chips , very friendly and helpful staff would highly recommend

Benny and the team made special allowances for our large party on the Monday before Christmas and the food and service was excellent. Felt very relaxed and had a great time! Will definitely visit again,

Very nice food, served quickly. Portions a little small otherwise would have been 5 star

Online Ordered 21/12/24 ( 2 separate orders, same time for collection 2 hours later) 4 cod & chips, 1 plaice and chips, 1 child's meal. Arrived to collect, had to wait as 1 order wasn't ready. Got home and was really disappointed. Fish dry and hard, very overcooked. Chips very hard and bitty. 30% edible. Could not actually work out which was the plaice as fish was all indistinguishable. Live locally and have previously preferred to get fish and chips from Fishers due to the quality and freshness. Always been highly satisfied. On this occasion it was not good and most of the fish and chips were binned. Sorry for the negative review but on this occasion the food was not your usual standard

Myself and friend visited fishers for the first time today .we found the premise very clean and a pleasure to walk into , we were greeted straight away by a polite and very friendly sociable man who promptly seated us , within three minutes our order was taken . We both had the cod and chips and was pleasantly surprised as to how well this meal was cooked , the chips were done well with a slight crispness to them , in our opinion perfectly cooked , the cod was delicious with the batter was of a consistency of light and crispy ,not overly cooked , i personally asked to see the chef and thanked him for providing such a very well cooked meal. The waitress was a very delightful young lady and very efficient and pleasant with us . Impressed!we both certainly are and shall travel to Hunstanton again to this restaurant without a doubt .thank you 🙏🕊️

Brilliant fish and chips, excellent cuppa and great service. Not busy as a winter early evening and Benny who served us was great. Will definitely be back.

Service was great, food was tasty. Went as a group of 35 and every order was bang-on and bang-ing! We mainly ordered cod and chips, with various peas, mushy peas or beans. The manager brought out complimentary gravy, curry sauce and generous plates of bread and butter. We couldn’t fault this place - thank you.

Had a really lovely meal here this evening with a large group of us. We were incredibly well looked after by Benji and the team. The food was incredible and great value for money. Thank you so much!

Lovely food but expensive, as is everything these days. Thank you!

Thank you Benny and Sally, nothing too much trouble. Delicious food and a lovely cuppa. See you next time. The ticket man lol.

Good old Fish and chips,went in for a meal very pleased with the service a very pleasant lady was controlling the shop made us feel very at home. So sorry for her recent incident she had to deal with. My advise keep doing as you are all is good.

Been here a few time and it’s always been Fab food and lovely staff, Benny and Sally were so friendly and kind! Would definitely recommend it here ☺️

We were getting married in Hunstanton on September 14th this year, and as quite a few guests were arriving the day before, we thought it would be great to meet up for fish and chips in the evening. I phoned just about every F&C restaurant in the town to try to book in 16 guests, but all refused to take bookings for that number. Then I finally tried Fishers, who had no hesitation taking the booking with just a £20 securing deposit that came off the final bill. When we arrived on the evening of the 13th, we were welcomed by the enthusiastic manager who had reserved an area for ourselves and our guests. Not only that, but they had decorated our area and tables with wedding day banners and balloons, had wedding music playing, and for myself and my wife to be, had placed a small bottle of prosecco and a champagne flute for each of us. Several of us were past retirement age and were offered the reduced price meals and there was no problem with children's meals for the 3 small children we had with us. The fish and chips were absolutely delicious as were the amazing sweets. Finally, the manager and his staff were wonderful, serving us accompanied with smiles and humour. Everybody agreed it was a wonderful evening and a great prelude to our wedding day. We will be back!!!

Food was tasty Crispy batter on the fish, didn't have haddock tho! Chips were cooked Big portions Quite expensive

Absolutely grotty chips and fish wasn't much better.

Lovely fish and chips, but it wants to be for costing near on £30 for 2 cod and chips to take away.

Benny and team were fantastic. Super welcoming, couldn’t do enough for us and just a real friendly bunch and the food is out of this world. Wouldn’t go anywhere else now.

We went and purchased some fish and chips after a 3 hr drive. Asked to use the loo in the adjoining restaurant and was told no! Hence the mark down for service

Two of us ordered the battered sausage meal and one the vegetable lasagne meal. My wife (Lasagne meal) asked if she could swap her side of peas for coleslaw. The sausage meal comes with chips and a choice of minted mushy peas, peas, beans, curry or gravy. I asked for minted peas, the daughter chose curry sauce. If you look at my image of the menu, you will see the sausage is stated as 1ft long, if you look at my image of the meal, you will see it’s a standard sausage. My wife’s meal arrived and we reminded the waitress it should have coleslaw. Then the two sausage meals arrived. I queried the size with the waitress who said you need to state “Jumbo” this is a lie as nowhere does it state that on the menu meal. I reminded her of the missing coleslaw and we were told there is none left before walking off. Nobody told us this at the start, my wife would have had peas if they did. When the bill arrived, there was an extra side charge of coleslaw. I challenged the price and they removed the coleslaw. I’ve no idea if they try pulling this trick on everyone, I am sending my images and experience to trading standards, it’s a shame as the food they did serve tasted fine

MARVELLOUS MACEY ..!! Just wanted to share my love and appreciation for Marvellous MACEY. I visited the restaurant this week and I was greeted with such love and kindness from MACEY. I am a super fussy eater and MACEY was very patient and kind to me. Nothing was to much trouble and she really went out of her way to make me feel comfortable. I really appreciate the exquisite customer service I received from MACEY. The other staff Chloe and Sally were also lovely and very family orintated. The food was good fresh and hot. They even provided colouring for the children. The location is great and thr decor was traditional. All in all a SUPERB experience..!! Thank you ever you so much Marvellous MACEY, Chloe and Sally for making my visit so memorable..!! Lots of Love & Unicorn Sparkles Baker-Girl 🦄✨💖🌈x x x x

My first time eating fish and chips in England. And it was an absolute blast. I highly recommend this restaurant. The waiters are absolute lovely and my whole family loved it. Greetings from the german family to Benny and the Rest of the service staff. Keep up the good work.

We used to buy from here frequently. 45 min drive for a walk and treat ourselves to food . Sadly we won't bother again . The chips were burnt scraps , veggie burger was grim ( the bun a weird texture and yellow in colour ) not to mention horrible taste . The mushy peas were a revelation..... They were brown . I mean really brown 😕 . I have never seen brown peas before. When we tried to change them we found out they were all the same . It seems they warm them up and put them in individual portions and then incinerate them under the heat lamps until they are a tasty visual treat .... BROWN peas ... Never had that before and never again cos we won't be back not even if I was starving.

For fish & chips in Hunstanton this is the place.

Atmosphere, so positive, staff amazing. Best fish and chips for a long time. We're going to visit again!

Nice clean place staff were all friendly and food was lovely massive burgers and massive fish great place to take the family

Stopped for some fish and chips. Chose the pensioners meal deal but the best part was the nice fresh chips, the rest was quite drab.

Great food Had pensioners special which was good value for money .The brother and sister cannot fault them . Customer service is like second nature to them . Wonderful will be back next time on holiday

Wow So pleased we popped in .Great food .Had the pensioners special Value for money and right amount . .Wheelchair friendly ..Staff are excellent they know what customer service means .The brother and sister could teach customer service for a living .A few of other places to eat in Hunstanton should take note .

Popped in on our way back to apartment which is nearby. Waitress suggested Pensioners deal £10.50. portions for two good size and excellent value. Waitress was very pleasant.

Enjoyed a very tasty Senior Citizen’s fish & chip dinner at a fantastic price of £10.95. Very kind & obliging staff so couldn’t have been better. Always happy to return!

Good food! Looks expensive but you get so much food for what you pay for! We couldn’t finish it!

The haddock was lovely with crispy batter. Chips were also very good.

Beautiful Fish & Chips, staff friendly, all freshly prepared in the restaurant, mushy peas and curry sauce all lovely at the seaside.

Called in on the off chance great greeting sat in the window table a nice view of the sea Benny served use with one of the best fish and chips we have ever eating ,Benny great guy made use so welcome a laugh a minute

Exactly how a fish and chip shop should be. 👍 Although it was very busy, the service was very prompt and my order was ready in a few minutes and tasted delicious. 😋 IMO, far superior to Eric's at Thornham and better value!! 💷

Lovely fish and chips, friendly stahh and good value Pensioners Special Always come here when on holiday in Hunstanton.

Lovely welcoming staff, great fish and chips and reasonable prices. Perfect

Nice fish & chips with good service.

Best place for fish and chips in town

We visited Hunstanton and had the great pleasure of eating in at Fishers today. We both had the Cod and Chips with minted mushy peas. The size and quality of Cod with it light crispy batter was perfectly cooked delicious. The chips were freshly cooked and gorgeous. The service by Benny and the team was fast and efficient and we were made to feel special just as the meal was. We can both highly recommend the eating experience and the lovely team were very helpful, polite and made our visit a real treat. Thank you. Dave and Kim Chelmsford

Fish and chips were the best we have ever had. Peas had a bit of mint in them which was very nice. Large cod was a very large cod. We had not seen a piece this big before.

One of the best places for fish and chips

We had a great experience from the moment we walked into fishers. The staff were so welcoming and polite and obviously happy in their job. Special shout out to Barry who was a joy so friendly and chatty. The food was amazing the curry sauce was best we had tasted for years. Even the playlist was happy music. We will definitely be back next year when we holiday here again.

As good as it gets. Top service, generous high quality portions so no wonder they are in the top 10 in the country.

We visited Fishers as part of a day trip to Hunstanton. The service was excellent, from our server Benny, who was amazing and wonderful to talk to. The food was the best fish and chips we’ve ever had, 10/10 will return.

Bloomin gorgeous!! Piping hot and freshly cooked....a lovely flat white too! Will definitely visit again x

Fish was great but the chips were extremely disappointing. Just a few scrappings. Will try one of the other shops on our next visit.

Fantastic food served by a friendly and engaged team. Everything a seaside chippie should be!

Really lovely restaurant. Staff were all very friendly and attentive, and the food was excellent. Would certainly go back here when I'm next in Sunny Hunny 🌞
