Happy Dolphin in Croydon

excellent fish excellent chips l can't rave enough about how lovely and what good quality all the food has been.Keep it up.Many thanks

Chips were a bit overdone and batter was a bit soggy. But the fish was delicious

New to the area and searching for a go-to spot for fish and chips, I tried Happy Dolphin—and it didn’t disappoint. The portion size was generous, and everything arrived pipping hot and crispy. I’ll definitely be ordering from here again!

Beautiful cooked fish and chips to perfection thank you

New to the area and been looking for a new local for fish and chips. Happy Dolphin didn’t disappoint. Portion was decent and arrived pipping hot. Will definitely be ordering again.

the fish was not in 1 piece but in several pieces which looked as tho it was not fresh,hard batter didnt help and it made for an unpleasant meal

food amazing, delivery driver a c#@t

Very enjoyable meal..quality,presentation temperature,quantity..everything was perfect

Best chips from a chip shop that I’ve had

Really tasty fish and chips just too much for me and ordered medium! Hubby polished off a large though!

Quite honestly the best fish & chip shop in addiscombe. Superb .

lovely thanx,wish we could still get chicken breast. our favourite

the delivery was fine, but the food was very disappointing, very crispy hard chips the fish was nice

Nice and quick - but I'd rather it was a bit slower and they took the time to check they had packed everything! Leaving out the chips from a chip supper is ridiculous! An refund does little to address ruining our dinner!

My kids won’t go anywhere else for chips. Chips are always perfect and crispy, the curry sauce is very good, all the prices are reasonable, very important to me the owners are super helpful and friendly.

batter soggy on both cods,time btween order and delivery suggested neither chips and cod were fresh….disappointed

Great food, great staff and great prices!!!

best fish in croydon by far 10 out 10

magic fish and chips best in croydon

Excellent service. Best Fish & Chips ive had for a long time. Cooked well and tasted delicious. Would recommend Happy Dolphin

Best fish and chips in this area....never fails ...always good....happy

Decent food but lemon taste chips and coke wasnt cold

I HAVE USED THIS SHOP FOR ABOUT 50 YEARS THROUGH 2 OWNERS.IT EXCELLS ON ALL COUNTS AND IS BY FAR THE BEST OF THE 3 NEAR ME. THE NEGATIVE RESPONSE SEEMS SOME WHAT SPITEFUL?

the best fish and chips I've had for a long time

Best haddock and chips in Addiscombe

First time ordering from here and really wasn’t disappointed. Portions sizes are huge even when ordering medium chips. Battered sausage and saveloy were much bigger than other take aways. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you’re after great food.

A drink is missing from my order.

outstanding fresh chips tonight

Excellent 1st class service and food

The food, quality and quantity was 1st class

The quality of the food was excellent unfortunately I ordered a large portion of chips but received a medium portion however they were lovely

best fish & chips in the area 😋

I've been around for more than 50yrs and this was by far the best fish and chips, the chips were crispy on the outside and fluffy inside, the fish was cooked to perfection. I will be ordering again, many thanks for my dinner.

I had 2 pies and chips delivered from here. It was expensive and both pies were stone cold. The chips were plentiful but horrible. I grew up just around the corner from here and Sergio and his wife would be horrified at the poor quality the new owners are selling. I WILL NEVER be using this place again!

Can of coke with order would have been nice

Just good and reliable, and lovely service! I’m a vegetarian and I love the halloumi. Recommend!

Thanks for cold drink meal not to bad

Absolutely delicious and fresh cod and chips.

10 out 10 magic meal codbites and chips lovely best in the area

Good 👍 it was the best fish and chips 🍟

Excellent freshly cooked haddock with crispy batter. Extremely generous portion of chips. Lovely and hot on arrival. Cant fault, thankyou so much.

You sent steak pie instead of beef and onion but still loved the meal you are best in shirley and west wickham

I am new to the area and have been trying to find the best chippy for weeks and I just have. Amazing flavour and friendly staff, perfect.

Recently visited this local gem for their highly praised fish and chips, and it absolutely lived up to the hype! The moment I walked in, I was struck by the absence of the typical heavy oil scent that’s common in many fish and chip shops – a clear indication that they regularly change their oil, maintaining a high standard of freshness and quality. The fish itself was encased in a light and crispy batter that was simply perfect – crunchy on the outside yet not overpowering the delicate fish within. The taste of the fish was sublime, fresh and cooked to perfection, easily making it a standout. But let’s not forget the chips! They were a delightful balance of fluffy on the inside and wonderfully crispy on the outside. Each bite was a pleasing mix of textures and flavors, well-seasoned and incredibly satisfying. Overall, the taste was fantastic, with none of that residual oiliness you sometimes find elsewhere and the service was fantastic with a smile. This place really knows their craft and it shows in every aspect of their food. Easily some of the best fish and chips I’ve had – highly recommended

Disappointing, minimum payment of £10 by card. Twice I have gone at 8pm and they have told me they don’t have any chips and then when other people come in ordering large fish and chips they suddenly have enough chips. I can only assume they don’t like it if you only buy chips??? Fortunately addiscombe has other chips shops and Ozzies is much better and its minimum payment is £1 and they always seem to have chips, even after 8pm!

Fabulous as usual. Wouldn’t have fish and chips from anywhere else!!!

Fish was crispy outside and lovely! The delivery guy was pleasant unlike some people who doesn’t say a word.

Sorry but my fish was so over cooked

Splendid. Lovely grub. Brilliant friendly driver

ordered 2 cod and chips only the fish delivered call to ask for the chips the man just said no driver and left me on the phone serving customers

I have used this shop since god was a boy and owned by Andreous a span of about 40 years, Adreous was a hard act to follow but the new people have cracked it.

Extremely pale jumbo sausage, cold saveloy, everything tastes like burnt old oil. Spent about £30 on food that wouldn’t even reach McDonalds standards. Oh and missing drink & item!

Fresh, hot and great quality! Will definitely order again

Absolutely brilliant as always! Today I ordered fish and chips and it was tasty and crisp, not soggy like other places. Thank you for the amazing food, hospitality and service. I have tried almost everything on the menu over the years and have been a loyal customer ever since discovering you guys 3 years ago. Will recommend to everyone in a heartbeat 10/10

20 minutes waiting in store for a large chips. Not the first time this has happened. They prioritise large orders. Might be fair enough but they’ve lost my large orders in the future.

Delicious fish, big serving. Fantastic chips. Piping hot and not at all greasy. 10/10 would order from here again.

I am always greeted with a smile by the owners and employees and whenever I ask for extra sauce or napkins they are always friendly and deliver. The food is phenomenal. I’ve tried the cheeseburger, scampi, cod, haddock, plaice and rock and EVERY SINGLE TIME they deliver quality. The chips are outside this world and so are the halloumi and nuggets. Honestly read some of the reviews and don’t know why they’ve said some of the stuff they have - they are the cleanest, friendliest, loveliest at their job and you can tell they care about their customers and food quality. I will not go anywhere else in London!! Thank you for your phenomenal service Happy Dolphin! :)) I will be back soon!x

Been to the chip shop before, but this time the chips weren't the best. Not in a hurry to return.

Excellent service. Food arrived on time. I ordered medium cod and chips, couldn't eat it all as more than enough chips. It was still hot when delivered. I have ordered quite a few times from this shop and will continue to do so. Highly recommended. The best fish and chip shop around this area.

Food delivered promptly. Freshly cooked as you'd want it to be.

Excellent food arrived hot and on time. Definitely use them again

Jumbo sausages nor jumbo anymore. The fish haddock didn’t look like a large. On the plus side , chips were good though not the usual chunky.

This place has gone rapidly downhill since the new owners took over. Food quality is not the same ☹️

Well, that was simply the best! Better than all the rest!

Great food. When I ordered on Uber eats it gave a selection for sauces; I got a bottle of mayo £3.50 I didn’t get a bottle but 5 sachets! I called and complained; I don’t have fingers and couldn’t open it! I wasn’t impressed and the lady wasn’t bothered and said that’s why we gave you 5 as we sell them at £1. 👎🏽

Fish Very good as usual, but calamari was `bready` and tasteless. Will not have this again.

Chips could have been hotter fish was lovely

I usually buy fish and chips from Mcdermotts up at Selsdon, but they were closed so I ordered cod and chips from happy Dolphin. Absolutely amazing best cod and chips I’ve ever tasted and it’s nice to see it was delivered in cardboard box rather than polystyrene

Good portion. Lovely Cod and chips.

I love them so much. The best fish and chips in the area.

Absolutely stone cold disgusting

Food good as usual. Delivery time acceptable.

Very nice chip shop,food always nice the few times we have been

Fabulous food.piping hot and delivered quickly. Definitely will be using again. Recommended.

Worst chips we have ever had from the shops today

This fish and chip shop is the best it arrives hot the fish is soooo soft and crispy the chips are to die for and the curry sauce wow I would buy 2

Awful! Fish was so dry, hardly any fish either. Skin wasn’t crispy. Tasted frozen! Chips where freezing. Wont order from here again.

Hands down the best fish and chip shop chips I have ever eaten! Food arrived hot and was all delicious. Highly recommend and would definitely order again.

Great fish and lots of chips...very hot and pleasant delivery person

Rock was overdone, didn’t feel fresh as batter was heavy and dry. Quarter pounder came with no onion or sauce as ordered so was sadly presented with just the burger in a bap. Wouldn’t recommend for the price. Partner called but no interest was taken. My son though enjoyed the chicken fillet burger but not the sausages. Hate it when good money is spent only to be disappointed. You learn by your mistakes so won’t use again.

Tried Rock (large) not what I remembered.

Chips were not as nice as last time. Skin was left on and they were not as crisp. Batter on sausage was far too thick and greasy

Glad to say food and delivery back to it`s previous excellence.

Lovely food. Good portion size. Did not have the bottle of drink we ordered so sent us 4 cans instead, which we actually preferred. Would 100% order again.

I`ve had better from this restaurant on every previous order. On this occasion the size of the fish, for `large`, was not as big as usual and it would seem it had been overcooked, the batter being dark and very crisp. Although disappointed, I will, no doubt, give them a try sometime in the future, to see if this was just a `one off`.

Just perfect. Best fish and chips.

Read the reviews and find them positive so let me have go I said and not disappointed! Delicious, perfectly cooked! Yummy!

Extra pieces of chicken added as they were short on the last order. Thanks. The food has returned to being the best , especially the chips.

Lovely Fish And Chips Would Recommended Good Prices

Used to be good,gone right down hill,and your not allowed to use the salt n vinegar, very strange note: I almost believed your reasoning, then realised ,you still accept cash,wich will be far more contaminated, why not spend 5 pound on 2 more shakers

Saveloys were grey inside, my daughter got food poisoning from the chicken burger. Really fallen away in quality since change from Andreous. Also don't ask to use the salt or vinegar, the guy becomes all powerful..."I do the salt and vinegar!" Happy to handle your cash though! Thanks for the feedback, however...saveloys are NOT grey unless theyve left in the water for an excessive amount of time...there's a reason you havent sold any chicken burgers recently and to use "cross contamination" to prevent people from putting their condiments on is ridiculous. Good luck but we will not be returning.

There were 2 pieces of chicken only and about 8-10 wings. There were no chips in the chicken box. Later I found a note attached that there were no more pieces of chicken promising to add more next time. The large chips felt more like a medium size.

Really friendly customer service, food portions are incredible & that’s not even mentioning how tasty the cod is!! Hands down, easily the best fish & chips I’ve ever had.

Chips were good but the chicken leg was burnt to a cinder

Chips were very dry as if they had been cooked hours ago

First class food delivered to time, as usual.What more is there to say?

Really good customer service. Generous portions, definitely one of the best fish and chip shops in london and cleanliness is a priority... 5 stars is an understatement I drive 3 plus miles to be fully satisfied everytime.

First part of order was fine, they forgot the chips had to wait further fifteen minutes by then the other food was luke warm!!

The fish was quite oily and the salad that used to come with the cod bites was missing entirely. I had added a note to the restaurant about that but they didn't bother to send any nor tell the delivery driver why no salad.

Expensive chips but worth the price! Savoloy could have been a bit better though
