Grimsby Fisheries in Leicester

Never disappoints. Lovely food, generous portions.

The standards have dropped here, get fewer chips and the price has increased. £12.20 for a large fish and chips, portion size for a large is equivalent to a small at another chippy. Used to be a regular here but now only go for convenience.

Top quality food and massive portions. BEST PLACE IN LEICESTER for fish and chips.

Always stop here for mini fish and chips before Leicester home game, never disappointed, lovely fish and the chips are great

I just love their fish and chips, and my husband the battered sausage. The best this is that they are just in my way home from work. I can’t fault them for anything, really.

Tomó a mi sobrina y a su socio portugués para que probara grandes pescados británicos con papas fritas. En la visita anterior con mi marido realmente disfrutó sentado en el restaurante que se sirve y comer de los platos de la cena. Encontré experiencia totalmente diferente qued para nuestra comida no es un problema, pero tenía que caminar fuera con contenedores para llevar en el restaurante. Promedio de comidas, pero las mesas sucias desbordadas no regresarían.

I do a round trip of 12 miles to come here. They are very good, good size portions, enough for 2, good price too, nearly £11 not bad for 2, only draw back is parking but then that's the problem with all the best one's with being busy.

Established reliable chippy, probably the best in leicester, halloumi was also surprisingly nice along with the usual fish and chips!

Long queues with no seats while waiting for your food.

What can one say about this local legend, THE only place for this type of food in Leicestershire.

Decent food, some of the best chips around, prices are a little high for some bits. Starting to look very dated and could do with a makeover.

I ate fish here for the first time, it was delicious and the employees were very friendly.

Gluten free on a Monday. Nice portions. Wonderful and highly recommended.

Best chippy in leicester. Love gluten free Monday night's. It's great to have fresh gf battered fish cooked to perfection.

Best fish and chips in Leicester in my humble opinion 🙂. Always freshly cooked food and friendly staff.

Good quality fish and chips, always very busy so expect to stand around for few minutes

The best fish and chips in Leicester! It's deffo not the cheapest and the chip portions could be bigger for the price, but the haddock is just how I like it!

Best fish and chips in Leicester!

Always love it. Portion size is really good. Taste 😋

Service is at the counter like a takeaway, but you can eat in at clean tables with metal knives and forks and toilet facilities provided.

Chips now very some portions and prices gone up

Still a fantastic chippy! I love their gluten free set up and the food is top notch.

Absolutely favourite fish and chip place. Fish cooked to perfection and chips nice and crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Divine

Easily best chippie across Leicester, hands down. Always have fish and chips with curry sauce. Portions are huge.

Best chippy there is.. don't need to add anymore than that

Massive portions, but the fish wasn't the best. Batter was rock hard. Its says restaurant but it's just a few tables, no plates!

Fish batter is like concrete and completely bland, no salt even. Atlantis fish bar on uppingham road is much better.

Tasteless fish garbage. Overrated only thing good is chips, and if they can’t get that right then they may as well not be in Business.

This really wasn't your best! Overcooked. Should not have been sold. If we are paying you requested price bring back the quality.

The best fish and chips in town

The headline says it all really. We really enjoyed it here, just a shame we were only visiting Leicester for the day . The small portion was ample for both of us, very tasty white fish and cooked to perfection.

Peppered gravy was great and boss man was a sound geezer

Fantastic food & staff. So cheap & thank you for my extra Mushroom, delicious !

The worst place i have ever been The food was not fresh at all and not tasty at all For one pice of chicken and two portions of fries and two drinks they charge us £16 I don't mind about the money but the food was not good at all and even you have to pay separately for the sauce I wouldn't go there again even if its free

3 April 7 pm: They must have picked up "'e's not from 'round 'ere" as the chips were stale and the fish overcooked and the batter very oily. £21.60 for 2 large cod with large chips. As I do live nearby, I will get a takeaway in Queens Road next time.

Really good fish and chips. The staff are always friendly and helpful

Been coming here off and on since 1982, it’s just the best.

Spotlessly clean throughout, staff were very friendly, opened eating area especially for us as we had travelled to the area, cooked gluten free meal especially. All food was freshly cooked, excellent quality, piping hot, excellent value would definitely recommend many thanks for welcoming us thank you

nice place fish is good pretty quick service will go again..

Recently visited Leicester again after having lived there many many years ago. This was always my go to place for fish and chips and glad to say it hasn’t depreciated over the years at all! Still amazing portions! Amazingly clean eating area. Can’t recommend enough :)

Still good, but not as good as it was pre-Covid. Sadly, it appears that dining in with real cutlery and crockery is now a thing of the past.

The fish was fried great the chips where nice and crispy but not to hard and the pineapple fritters were nice and juicy

The fish fillets are huge!! The menu is good offering plenty of options. Service is great - efficient with smiles. Regulation fish and chips will satisfy the biggest of appetites. A good fish and chip shop.

The best fish and chip shop in the land! Couldn’t ask for a better place to eat, their signature fish and chips are the best I’ve tasted. Great family run business and the queues speak for themselves. Top place

Classic Grimsby been going since i was a child... still lovesssss up to name. Prob the best chippy in Leicester dedicatedly one of the most popular

Greats chips and made just right. Fish made fresh and crispy batter. Staff are fast, friendly and efficient. Keep up the great work, service and quality!

Love this place. Been going here for since I was 10. Chips and awesome and the fish are huge compared to other places.

Very good Fish & chip , I was a guest in their town from up north , and I am a bit of a foody , googled them and went there , ordered Cod with chips and Mushy peas ×3 , and fish was lovely , portion was decent size and price was very reasonable . What else could you wish for ?

Quite a nice place , fairly cheap and cheerful

Still baffles me why the best fish and chips are found furthest from the sea!

Good quality and decent portions. Self service in restaurant only when we visited.

Huge fish with chips, always fresh and tasty. Add mushy peas or curry sauce to top it off! Excellent value for money!

Fish is fab never a bad meal from hear takes cash or card it hot a restaurant if you want to give mum a night off you won't be disappointed parking not the best side street are good

Always good. Always quick and efficient. Most reliable chippy around here. Good delivery too.

The food is fantastic and the portion size feeds 2 people. This is great value for money.

Not tried Grimsby's for some time but the fish is still up there amongst the best and tastiest in South Leicestershire. Top Marks!

Just been totally ripped off by this place. It's the absolute last time I go there. £4.40 for a large bag of chips and got barely what looks like a regular size... If that. The woman serving just gave me the dregs of what was left rather than waiting for more chips to be cooked. Such a shame because the chips are really nice. But come on give out proper portions for the price you are charging!!

Restaurant changed format. You no longer sit and be served those wonderful fish & chips on a proper plate ! You queue at the counter then sit eating out the wrapper. I guess this is to cut costs but certainly a down grade in my view, a real shame as this is no longer the experience it was .

Food excellent, dining room a bit spartan, staff excellent.

Super fast service crazy portion size. Great fish and chips

Really good cod and chips. The lady asked me if I wanted to wait for a fresh piece of cod to be cooked. I, of course, prefer to wait and get it fresh from the fryer. Really nice service and food.

Best fish and chips in Leicester

It's good, but not sure it lives up to all of the hype. I'd say Gypsy Lane Chippery and Bucks definitely trumps Grimsby Fisheries but it's a very tight race. If this is your closest chippy, you can't go wrong. We're spoiled for great choice in all parts of the city, enjoy!

I took an Austrian work colleague here to the restaurant last night, fish and chips, bread and butter, mushy peas, curry sauce, and a cup of tea. Dinner of champions! It was all very nice.

In fairness may have been user eats fault .but fish was cold and stale and chips stone cold only thing hot was peas

Just had fish and chips from here and the fish just melted in our mouths! Absolutely delicious , crispy and fresh. Just a shame about the miserable girl serving the chips, otherwise fantastic

Popped in late one evening after a long time. Service was quick and friendly just like my previous visit and the food was very fresh as expected.

Always has been and always will be the best chippy in Leicester 😍

Very rude owner, staff dont wash their hands, cross contamination of fish , meat, on top of that they rude

Had the worst chips from a chip shop in years ,they obviously pre cook them when city are at home and keep them warm

Really poor service, ordered a chicken burger had to wait half an hour, in a heatwave...

Some of the best chips in Leicester

The best fish and chips I've had in Leicester and the curry sauce is amazing The staff were friendly and I definitely would go there again

Love the gluten free option on a Monday, definitely recommend to anyone looking for a good chip shop

Best fish and chips in Leicester!

I heard so many good things about this place but sadly was dissapointed the cod batter was so thick, over cooked not fluffy at all extremely greasy. My partner came years ago so maybe the owners changed. But in my opinion I won't be going back.

How can u call it a restaurant? U have to queue up and order with those ordering food to take out. No different menu anymore. Such a shame u’ve let urselves down. Fish and chips are excellent but this is just a room to sit in and eat yr meal out of polystyrene boxes. U even have to pay for sauces!!! What a disappointment 🙁

Very good definitly recommend 👌

We called to order and collect it at lunch time and they had everything ready for us when we got there. The staff was lovely, the food tasted great, the portion was huge even though we just got a mini fish and chips meal. Now it's my favorite! The old man behind counter was so nice to me too, he made my day <3

Always delicious fish and chips! Been coming here for years even though it’s 30 mins away from me.

Top marks loving the gluten free option on a Monday night

Best fish n chips I've had, you have to try it to believe it

Outstanding service, tasty fish and chips, the best I have ever had. Lovely fish and the oil used is good quality too. You don't get that extra heavy oiliness feel. Loved it !!

The fish and the chips were soggy. There was too much batter on the fish. Overall the food was dumped in oil and really hope they improve their standards to their initial standards.

"line busy" trying to ring a place this big in 2023... Ridiculous. Either way, been here before, couldn't really find anything to be bothered about but at the time they did forget my drink as part of my meal deal. Easily done and relatively insignificant compared to the rest of the food. Their food is great when it's fresh, but customer service seemed to lack a little, and that's only intensified by their lack of a call queue. Seemed relatively lackluster inside, but could have changed by now, not that I'll find out because first impressions matter, and they've left two relatively disappointing ones now so I'll not be revisiting. I don't think that matters to them though, they don't even need to try to get customers. Everyone knows how undeniably good their food can be, and it's still worth a visit if you've not been.

Been coming here since childhood, this time wasn't too impressed, Potato's were different, portions were less and quite greasy. Felt sorry the girl who had to take the chips our the fryer into the serving pit looked really heavy and she is quite petite.

One of the best chip shops in Leicester shown by the length of queue that can be piling out the door at time, but I do recommend getting your chips open as when wrapped they seem to go all soggy and stick together open they stay lovely crispy as you would expect a good chip shop chips to be prices are a little steep though and the meal deals don't make sense works out cheaper to buy everything separate

Gluten free fish and chips on Mondays!

Good food, reasonable price and friendly staff.

Worst fish and chips ever. Never again to this restaurant.

Ordered large chips got tiny portion

Absolutely shocking experience this evening. Entered the shop that had NO customers, stood there for 5mins whilst girls chatting. Eventually got served an extremely SMALL portion of chips when I’d ordered a LARGE!!! She threw my change at me and carried on chatting!!! Never ever going here again! Chips were burnt and soggy!!!Worst chip shop in Leicester..AVIOD AVOID AVOID!!!!!!! Horrible service and burnt chips!!!!!!

Best chippy in leicester easily.
