We have used this store since it opened and the fish has been excellent. Today, my cod was obviously not freshly cooked and had been re-heated. The price of fish has meant we, pensioners, have had cut back on this treat. It should be top quality.

fish n chips undercooked fish raw in places pale chips. £27.00 unsure if it was cod as requested. No que outside should have been the clue!

Ordered 3 lunchtime specials. Nothing was ready and waited for 10 minutes, to receive the worst fish and chips ever. Slow server who seemed inexperienced. Tiny size and poor quality of fish, with hardly any batter that was not proper batter, minimal coverage and soggy/underdone. Chips were already done, and cold ish inside and very odd in taste. Avoid at all costs. Not sure what has happened but this has gone downhill. Waste of money and worse still, left an awful taste in mouth, with most going in the bin!!!

Usually the food here is good but they are always on the slow side and you can usually see the front of house staff arguing with the staff cooking in the back. This is because the staff in the back tend to mishear what the front of house are telling them I spite of being told very clearly. So today I ordered food from the counter at 6pm and didn't receive it until 6.45pm. All the staff, front and back, seemed very muddled, looking through pieces of paper trying to figure out who had ordered what. The staff are always very polite to customers and the food is usually good with a few exeptions. I think I'll be giving them a miss for a while.

This used to be the best chip shop in MK - not sure what has gone wrong. A chip shop that can't cook chips? The chips looked, and tasted, rehated and stale, like cardboard. Give it a swerve unless Reg comes back.

Ordered fish and chips and pie and chips plus 2 x curry sauce. Was charged a astronomical £25.83 then after a 5 min wait told sorry no pie or curry sauce but he could swap for mushrooms or sausage. I definitely won’t be going back. The fish and chip shop on furzton is so much better and a fraction of the price.

The worst chips you could imagine Dried out burt to near black Who ever is running the so called fish and chip shop needs to have a look at themselves And perhaps rename it a more suited to the so called chips The nearest thing to them would be wood chips Allington all the worst chips I have had in years in fact in my life

This chip shop used to be superb,not any more. We visited before Christmas and the chips were cold,greasy and full of ends,the fish greasy and soggy. But I couldn't fault the customer service from the pleasant youngsters. Gave it another chance this week and after giving my order I waited for over half an hour whilst the girl did endless takeaway orders. Eventually I asked where my food was as many others had come and gone in the time. She had forgotten it but I got no apology and she said I would have to wait five minutes for fish.I said I was not waiting any longer and someone came from the back to tell her to give me two bigger fillets,if I had wanted larger ones I would have ordered them! She did the order then banged it on the counter without an apology,so rude,not something I have ever experienced here. The fish was hardly warm,very greasy and with very little fish in the middle of a lot of soggy batter. Again the chips were soggy with a lot of ends. We had ordered a chicken and this wasn't wrapped properly so it spilled juice and fat all over the fish and chips and soaked the paper bag.That is it,I'm never going back,not even to claim the free takeaway meal and chips I was due.

The family came round on Sunday and we chose to have fish and chips as it was my husband birthday one of his favourite meals is fish and chips.the fish was very nice but sadly the chips let it down.they were wrinkled and dry and could tell that they had been reheated.we hardly ate any,they were awful .the order was for cod and chips x3 one fish cake and chips and two time sausage and chips ,the bill was pretty high which you don’t mind if you enjoy the meal ,but sorry to say we were let down by left over chips that had been thrown back into the fryer to reheat. Not a happy customer.8/01/24.

This takeaway was terrible. The chips were reheated and cold. The saveloy was cold and the battered sausage was over cooked. It is a shame because before Reg passed away it was lovely and now they have run it in to the ground.

Such a shame to have seen this place come so downhill when it comes to customer service. The waiting time is silly , it almost seems as though the staff on hand were entirely pre occupied with delivery or pre orders to take the orders of the customers waiting inside. I wouldn't risk visiting physically here if you wanted food in a reasonable time.

Thought I would try here again after a few times of disappointment and I don’t know why I bothered Well I usually buy my chips from The Village Plaice on whaddon way. STILL CANT FIND BETTER THAN HERE Was in Shenley church end so I thought petrolatum a bit low so I will just grab food from Fishnchicken!!! What a mistake!! Over £9 on a portion not big enough to feed my husband alone. Normally a large cod and chips in bletchley does the 2 of us but from this chip shop £9 later I ended up eating from the cupboard as it didn’t even fill my husband. Chips were dry as old boots and tasted rank Portion was absolutely diabolical The cod could swim in the oil it was in and was half the size I get from The Village Plaice Bring back Reg at least his smile always cheered you up this lot are also a bunch of miserable guys. Very saddened to give them £10 of my early money. Shall NOT let myself be fooled again by this chip shop 😡😡

OMG, this place used to be really ok but what on earth has happened??? If you are a chippy and you can't cook chips, you may aswell pack it in!! The bag of chips were just a massive ball of grease saturated potato. The paper they were wrapped in was absolutely soaked in oil. Probably the worst chips I have had in many a year and definitely wont be going back. Server may have been friendly but I wasn't there to make friends!!

We ordered some fish and chips for dinner but were greatly disappointed. The chips were hard and tasted as though they had been made earlier in the day but were just reheated.

This started off as a decent fish and chip shop although not as good as the previous one. Over the years it has gone steadily downhill and my recent visit resulted in poor quality chips and soggy battered cod. Prices are also high.There are better fish and chip shops in the city so give this one a miss.

The quality of the fish and chips is great, the batter is light and large chips means large and the fish is also a great portion. It is though to expensive it should not be £1.80 for a curry sauce for example. Go here for the quality but you will be able to get cheaper portions in other take away places or better still go across the road and by from Sainsbury’s and cook your own.

Fish n chickn do gluten free fish and chips on Sundays (in a separate fryer so no cross contamination) and we regularly pop in and get it as a Sunday treat (my husband gets the normal fish and chips). Really nice fish and chips both gf and non gf, always plenty of fish in the batter and never too fishy- great portion sizes too!

Trying to find a good Fish and Chip shop, that your happy with can be very frustrating that 'fits your taste buds' as there are so many to choose from.How many times have you ordered fish and chips, only in some cases to find chips are soggy and the batter sticks to the wrapping and has a 'flat taste'?It can take time to find one you really like and trust – I have one I would recommend in Milton Keynes, in Shenley to be precise – near Sainsburys.Yes, you may be several miles from Shenley, but it is worth your time driving to get to it to know you will really “Enjoy” your Fish and Chips wherever you eat it!FishnChicken, take bulk orders for meetings/team building seminars and the like and for the family or to eat from the wrapping as I do in car or at home. It is still hot and fresh after a 20 minute drive from this place to my home.I get my fish and chips at least twice a week from here as I work close by.Several types of fish can be ordered and other feasts are cooked fresh while you wait.Fishnchicken, does not have tables, it is purely 'take away' – being on street level, ideal for wheel chairs.The staff are always pleasant, they open at 11-30am, until late, Saturdays and Sundays not sure of times – no doubt will be on their website.They are quite a big and respected chain, so they have a very high level of cleanness and continuity in their products.Note to reader, I have found that if you do not put fish and chips in a bag that is supplied, just the wrapping as given, fish etc retains its consistency far better, in my experience – try it.Dr Edward Diget30th January 2019.

If you want anything non standard, e.g. burgers, chicken nuggets, pineapple fritters, then yell out your order as you enter and they will add it to the list so you don't have to wait when you get to the till to pay for your order. On Sundays they also provide gluten free fish and chips made to order. Although this is not our nearest chippy, it's our favourite. Always good food.

It's a Saturday evening after 8pm and my friend and I are hungry. The order of the night, fish and chips.We initially went to the golden fry in Newport but that was closed. We were going to go to the fish and chip shop in bradwell common, but fancied a change. There used to be a good one in shenley I think it's gone now, but that was ok. We decided to go to the new one FishnChickn.We got there about 9pm, the place shuts at 10pm we asked for 3 large Cods and small chips, we got told they had no large Cod.We then asked for 3 medium Cods and small chips, we got told there was no medium Cods. My friend then asked for some chickens and he was told that they had no chicken. (Unreal right)It was pointed out, for shop that calls itself Fish N Chick N they weren't doing very well. No sooner had this remark been said in jest, we were barked at by the bull neck employee at the back, hiding behind the fryers. " we can't just cook it all for you" trying to push blame on to a customer as to why they had no food out rather than the sad truth of profit margins and wastage to please the boss over customer satisfaction and retention. A simple, were out of stock would have sufficed.We asked for 3 small fish and chips with a curry sauce, it came to £20.50 Now I have tried to keep an open mind on the rating and taste of the food.My request for extra salt and vinegar on the chips went down like a lead ballon also I must add. The chips looked really good coming out of the fryer, but sadly that's as good as they got. Browning was nice, no crunch to them, soggy and hard chips. 2 out of 5. Curry sauce: standard microwave job 2 out of 5.The fish, again it looked good, and I have to admit the batter was ok, they assured me it was home made batter. The fish, not to my liking, nothing wrong with it, cooked well, but it just lacked the finish. A bit too chewy. Overall 3 out of 5 I can safely say it's one chain I won't be visiting again in MK, however I keep an open mind. Overall value, visit and taste: 2 out of 5 avoid or go elsewhere, my advice, try a family run place, they look after the customer rather than the overheads. Something's can't be bought

I have coeliac disease which means that I can not eat anything that contains wheat, barley, rye or oats; or anything that has come into contact with these contaminants (including frying in the same oil as these ingredients). When I got back late on a Sunday from a long drive and just didn't feel like cooking I had a browse online to see if there were any gluten free takeouts available nearby. I saw that Fish'n'Chick'n advertise that they can cater for gluten free on a Sunday all day so I was excited to go and check it out. We arrived quite late (just before closing) but they were so friendly and even though they had shut the gluten free fryer off, to cool down before close, they were happy to switch it back on even though I said I would understand if they couldn't.They were amazing. The service was fantastic. I very rarely meet such knowledgeable people about this condition and they blew me away with everything that they were aware of. They made me feel safe to eat there and like it was no bother at all to prepare a gluten free meal in a place preparing food that you think is closed off for good after diagnosis. I didn't have to say anything at all, they knew that being a coeliac means no gluten above 20 parts per million and prepared everything ensuring to the tiniest detail that my food couldn't come into contact with gluten. They even knew that barley malt vinegar is not suitable and offered me gluten free vinegar stating that it is also available for purchase. All my food was labelled gluten free and kept completely separate from my partner's gluten containing food. I didn't have to worry about anything at all. To top it off they have a great range of food available gluten free including gluten free battered sausage! I haven't been able to have that since I was diagnosed at 18! I saw that they also offer gluten free children's meals which is a rare find.The food was really tasty, just the right amount of batter, and for a very reasonable price. I enjoyed every last bite with no worries and no adverse reactions afterwards. My partner also said that his chicken nuggets and saveloy were great too. He said the nuggets were proper chicken rather than reconstituted and were very tasty. I have now found a fish and chip shop where I can enjoy battered sausage, chips and mushy peas again!!I heartily recommend this chippie and will certainly be a regular there now. Thank you Fish'N'Chick'n for going the extra mile!

The prices in this chips shop are easily 20% higher than what is found elsewhere, unless you go on a lunchtime where the £4.50 fish and chips is actually good value.Where this place earns its 2 stars is how consistently awful the chips are. The fish is okay but not once have I enjoyed the cardboard chips here.

Never disappoints. Been going here before when it was Regs, standard remained the same after it was taken over. Love the reward system too!!

Back again for the lunchtime special - cod and chips for £4.50.Piping hot and freshly cooked. It would be hard to fault this take-away.

This is the busiest fish and chip shop in milton keynes by far,i have never had bad food from here unlike other chippys ,its been popular since it was called reg's fish bar and has got busier.Tasty food ,slightly higher priced than some others but i think you get what you pay for.i personally recommend the half cooked chicken and chips deal.

fresh, delicious, nicely cooked fish size of Mobey Dick! batter crispy and not greasy; fish moist, nice and white and a it should be. Chips good.Thought we'd never be able to eat massive portions (we ordered large size fish) .... but we did - and enjoyed every mouthful!

I have to say the previous owners made it more entertaining "Mind yer fingers, chips are hot" people who have been previous to new owners will remember Reg.Overall a pleasant and clean chip shop serving a good selection and normally not greasy and because it is quite busy everything is normally fresh and crispy, I will drive past 3 chip shops to go here instead.

The worst chips I have ever had in my 49 years of life. They are like biting into cardboard...vile. Avoid like the plague.

Cod and chips for five one evening just before Christmas. The fish was hot, moist and freshly cooked. Unfortunately it was let down a little by soggy chips.

Used to come here all the time when it was Reg and Jill's. When it changed hands it was also good but just went tonight (17 December 15), waited for 20 minutes, then took the wrapped package home for dinner. Chips were swimming in grease and fish cake was tasteless, never again! My wife threw her's straight in the bin. What a disappointment.

Very good fish'n'chips , prices are ok. The fish is very tasty and the portions are enormous.I think one of the best fish'n'chips you can have, even much better than the one in Tobey Carvery for example.Highly recommended on takeaway

I cant speak for what goes on before 9pm because of the shifts I work,but if you turn up at fish and chicken after 9pm, forget it, the place is being wiped down and there is usually very little left for sale, the chips would appear to be fried well before this time and kept warm, for me this isn't a one off its happened a few times, but this was the last time, I appreciate that they do not want to have wasted food but if your shop shuts at 10pm, would you really have very little for customers to buy and be cleaning all of the hot press down by 9.10pm!

Went in to get my misses some fish and chips and decided to get myself some while there. Their TVs with photos of the food is saliva inducing. I queued for 10 minutes despite there only being 2 people in front and finally got to order. I asked for two medium cods and some extras. The young man (who was actually quite polite) told me that they didn't have any: only small or large. So I ordered two small. The man at the back then shouted 'got none'. The man at the till looked as confused as I and I said 'you have nothing' and he replied with 'it's 10'. Now I understand this man may finish at 10, but don't waste my time and only give me a grunt of an explanation. In those 10 minutes I could have gone to either subway or sainsburys which was a mere 30 seconds away. Bottom line was we just needed food. Just come back from holiday and the fridge had nothing in. Mans got to eat! If the chef had informed his college he was not willing to cook anything else he could then have told us to stop us waiting. So standing in a room with 3 other groups, despite walking in at the same time, we were the only group that left without food.Chef was rude and clearly in charge over the man at the till. Again the man at the till was fine and clearly, regrettably taking orders. The thing that annoyed me the most about the whole this was that I have eaten there before and not been overly impressed but I let the misses decide on a place to eat and it was near my mums house bla bla bla. So queuing for food I didn't like only to be told 'got none' by a man who articulated himself like he would struggle to spell his own name angered me immensely. Sort it out. The two stars are for the poor man on the till and the fact that I saw you do 7 tempura prawns for £1.99 and to be fair. That's an ace deal. Shame I didn't get to smash them in my face.

This used to be 'Reg and Jill's' and many people including me were worried when this new company took it over. However, the quality is just as good. Even though there is almost always a queue, it moves fairly quickly and the staff are friendly and welcoming.

We had been told that the Emporium had a new chef, and we were keen to stop off and try the lunch menu. We were served by a very polite young lady called Zoe, who explained the menu. I opted for the cheeseburger, which can be very hit or miss depending on the quality of the meat. My wife ordered a tuna toastie. After a relatively short wait, the food arrived, and again a polite young lad called Jake asked if we needed any sauces or condiments. I must say, both people who served us were energetic, polite, and attentive. The food was excellent, and the meat in the cheeseburger was of great quality and very tasty, as was the tuna toastie. All in all, it was a great experience—very well priced, with excellent service. We will certainly be back again."

Typical pub which has only modernised a little so still has the true pub atmosphere. Gone is the smoky environment and considerably brighter than the old days but still recognisable as a pub with staff of the ‘old school’. Good range of food though and on this visit we had the most delicious Lasagne which was served with an excellent Garlic bread and nice salad. Add a bottle of wine, couple of deserts and the bill of £56 was not bad at all.
