Forest Fish Bar in Wiltshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Delicious takeaway fish, chips, and mushy peas. Very friendly young ladies on the till. CASH ONLY

This chip shop is miles ahead of any of the others locally. I live in Trowbridge and purposefully drive over there to buy my fish & chips. I so wish they were based in Trowbridge. Melksham you are so lucky and yes I am jealous.

Amazing fish and chips. Good value

Decent chippy. Good food and reasonable price. £20 for two cod, chips and mushy peas.

I have been using this chippy since moving to Melksham in 2006. Always had good food and yes you may have to wait at busy times but in my opinion this shows that the food is fresh and that the place is well patronised. Just had two fish, large chips, battered Jumbo sausage and standard battered sausage £13:30. A good price compared to some others. Now it's September 2023 and this is still, in my opinion the best chippy in Melksham

Great little chippy, foods always good and staff are amazing

Proper chippy how it should be,good price good portions

Lovely staff, excellent food ... always get my elderly parents cod & chips on a Friday.. easily the best in town

Big portions and tasty food! Fast and polite staff too! Couldn't recommend more! Update Oct 23 - still one of the best places to get fish and chips.

Foods bang on. No time to wait, perfect. I come here often and it's always been good to us, never a let down 👍

Great fish and chips from a friendly team. We enjoyed the meal

Half decent food (its fried) what else?Friendly service, always on time, not a thing wrong We come here often on weekends etc

lovely food piping hot staff were efficient and pleasant would definitely recommend going there

It's what you would expect a fish and chip shop to be.

First time I've had chips from here and what can I say they was the best chips I've ever had in melksham will definitely be back for more

Excellent traditional English food. I use this place on a weekly basis. Highly recommended.

Great food, we use it most weeks

Great food, great price. Very welcoming by the owners. Called 10 mins before they closed and they allowed our order. We will be back. Thank you

Overpriced, cold, rude, moody and just awful. I Will never go again

Great food and excellent service. Ordered a kids meal and got adult portion. Great value for money. Staff were super friendly and took excellent care in preparing my food. Lucy was amazing as usual, and the owner was very kind and polite as always.

I've been coming here for my fish & chips since I was a child ! I'm 61 and still enjoying it, lovely friendly staff.

Best fish and chips in Melksham as far as i am concerned Ihave been using them for as long as i can remember after living near them for a while. Keep it up

Best chippy in town. Friendly staff, excellent food

Fish a little oily but not excessive as it would have upset my stomach. £7.20 average price. Establishment was clean and tidy so I'd recommend 👌

Excellent service and food as always.

Run by an oriental couple who couldn't a fish if it slapped them in the face. Dry over cooked fish simply disgusting. Horrific batter.. pure grease. STAY AWAY

Wow, fish and chips, I didn't think I would say that was nice but today I had cod and chips from FFB and they were excellent. Many thanks to the fryer, he/she certainly hit my tastebuds. Definitely best chippy in Melksham.

Good Fish and Chip Shop friendly staff

I would personally say that forest fish bar is the only one I will use. I find there portions are very big thay all I can manage to eat is one of there kids meals. Plus there is a good atmosphere and friendliness. I will recommend its worth a try.

Such good value and consistently good fish. Highly recommend 👌

Fantastic fish and chips, friendly and welcoming staff

Went to head towards a chippy we know is nice but there was atleast 15 people if not more queuing up. Headed off into melksham and remembered this little place I have seen and never went in. Well to be honest, it was the best portion of chips I've ever had, tge curry sauce was amazing and the mushy peas aswell. Also had a fish cake on the order with a jumbo battered sausage and 3 pickled onions. All for under a tenner. I'm heading straight towards this chippy from now on. Give it a go.

My mate Toby used to live near he lol

Great service, great food, simple.

Best chippy in melksham chicken and chips lovely

Always fresh. Cooked while you wait

Fantastic chippy would recommend superb food and friendly staff

You cannot fault the quality of the food in this place. They cook it fresh in front of you and I think it's the most economical fish and chip shop in Melksham. Definitely come back here

My local chippy, Good fish and chips. You can ring ahead to place your order, if you want to. Also so burgers, chicken nuggets etc. Cash only. Support you local chip shop if you can!

Our favourite fish and chip shop ever

Best chippie in Melksham, always yummy and lovely staff

Best fish bar in the area by far.

Nice polite staff, nice food and not two far away

Best fish & chips I've had in ages

Nice food and didnt have to wait to long x

Service is so slow! Waited 20 mins for just a portion of chips as they did not have the common sense to know that this order could be processed in 30 seconds rather than waiting to cook all the food for previous orders. Allowed others to push in front of my son when he tried to order and then the food is below par compared to Oceans and The Fisheries (Oceans is the best food having tried them all, but the service in the Fisheries is the best). 1 minute in the Fisheries for better chips than waiting 20 minutes in the Forest - I won't be going back.

My favourite in Melksham. Friendly owners.

Seriously great fish and chips. Whenever we are down visiting family we always have to visit Forest Fish Bar.

Foods not very good and very greasy.

We put an order in over the telephone for 15 fish and chips to be collected at 12.30 pm but they didn't start cooking then untill we arrived and it took 1\2 hour for order to be cooked. So we were not impressed at service

We've tried every fish & chip shop in Melksham and this is by far the best. Always freshly cooked, chips are great, not too greasy, fish is lovely and the batter thin and crispy. I can't comment on sausages/ fish cakes/ pies etc as I've never tried them. Consistently good quality, friendly owners, we never go anywhere else now.

Excellent food, good portions reasonable prices, parking outside.

Best fish and chips in Melksham

Very impressive! Great location, great architecture. The food was good and the service was very efficient. Really liked it!

Fish and chips, with limited on road parking.

Lovely fish and chips but other half said his chicken was dried and chewy.

Great company, great chips , lovely curry sauce. Mmm

Seriously fantastic Chippy and when they say large its large, large fish and chips would easily feed 2 people. I love the fact that everything is cooked fresh and when they have sold out the shutter comes down that's the way to combine life with work....so don't be late.

Nice to have a chippy within walking distance and I love the chips 🍟

Very friendly and great food. Best chippy in melksham 😃

Cooking oil smelt off...evening food was disgusting like food recooked from lunchtime.

Great fish and chips, friendly staff.

Fish n chips what's not to like

Always friendly and really good food.

The owners are very friendly, and work hard. Although when busy you may have a short wait is is always worth waiting for such consistent quality. I have called at the shop quite late in the evening when they are about to close, and the owner have for example cooked fish for me. I've tried most of the other shops in the Melksham area and this is by far the best.

A fairly decent chippy. The best I've had in melksham atleast.

Always get my fish and chips from here. They never disappoint. Fish always fresh and covered in lovely crispy batter with no grease residue. Chips always cooked well and tasty with huge portions. . Staff always pleasant. .

Haddock, chips and curry sauce, ummmmmm.

Always very good. Tasty food and good service.

fast,friendly,always great food and great value

We came here for fish and chips after reading the reviews on here. We turned up on a Friday tea time so the shop was busy but we managed to park sensibly in an adjacent side street. Once inside the shop the orders were being taken quickly and the food was cooked freshly which didn't take too long. The portion sizes were good and 3 meals was plenty for 4 of us.

Lovely food and great service, definitely one of the best in melksham!

I spend most of the year in Greece, but whenever we return to Melksham to visit my parents, we always have at least one takeaway from here. The fish is huge, and the portions of chips are sufficient for us to share 2 between 3 adults, and still have to leave some! Nice staff, and quick service, even though they are constantly busy. My favourite chippy by miles!

Fantastic service, such a lovely little community chippy! And the chips are great!

Good value, good portion sizes. Nice take away

This is not a bad little fish and chip shop with friendly staff and a good choice of fish alternatives. Food is prepared fast and they will accommodate individual wishes. Every village needs a good chip shop and this is melksham

I have been many times and the food is excellent one must try it. the service is very good and food is cooked to order.

Best fish and chips for miles around, good value for money

Myself and two friends treat ourself once every couple of months. We love that you can choose from two sizes of fish and the same with chips. The large chips is ample for two people. The large fish is always cooked really well and the batter is lovely. Although I often times try to not eat the batter, for health reasons but always fail miserably.
