Harbourside Fish & Chips in Plymouth - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Ordered Scampi and Chips. Was a recommendation from a couple from the Fisherman’s Arms which by the way is the most beautiful pub selling the best Sunday Roasts.. Take away and sat outside on a Sunday. I always say you can smell the food then it’s going to be great. We’d driven 4 hours to get to Plymouth and the scampi was

We went to Harbourside during the week for lunch. The girls working (Ellie & Poppy) were great. Super attentative, good communication & very friendly. Food & service were very good. We will be back.

Worst fish and chips ever! Chips are not proper thick chip shop style. Fish was overcooked and dry. Batter was soggy and tasteless. No ketchup or other condiments for customers to use. No fresh lemon or tartare sauce. Service not great. No variety of fish, only cod! Southend on sea (Lena's) is where they should learn how proper fish and chips by sea is supposed to be. Never written a review before but had to after this experience, honestly better off just going to local wetherspoons and getting it half price and better!

Friendly professional staff, beat Cod & Chips I've had in ages. Very clean restaurant. Very generous servings. Can not recommend enough!

I really recommend the Haddock and Chips. We sat upstairs in the restaurant and were given a first class service by the wonderful Lilly and Maggie 😊 They were amazing, definitely both assets to the company and you girls are hard workers 💪🏻 My husband and I popped in here when on a tour around Plymouth and definitely made our day more pleasant. We will definitely be back!

We really spoiled our stomachs! Never again

Best fish and chips I've ever had.

Could not fault this chippy! Lilly our server was very friendly, the quality of the fish and chips was high and very tasty! Would definitely visit again when in Plymouth!

Will is such a good chef gave me the best chips I’ve ever had love them so much deffo will buy again and mille was so nice to talk to defo will come again

Looked good but absolutely tasteless.

Food was excellent. Service faultless. Clean tables. This was a very busy night for them as firework championship was on. Staff did a sterling job.

What a disappointment, we've visited this place several times before, and have always had a good meal. . So today we decided to pop in for an early lunch 12noon, wish we hadn't are meal was awful, chips looked and tasted as if they were cooked the day before. Will not be going back for an early lunch again....

The best fish and chips in Plymouth. Generous portions for the money and you don't have to wait long for the order to arrive. I use this fish and chip shop regularly when I can...superb

Great fish and chips, excellent service from Lilly. Lovely comfortable upstairs seating with a view, good value for money.

A wonderful little dining area upstairs to eat. Delicious food & wine, reasonably priced. We were served by Anuraag & Sophia, both hardworking, friendly, professional, giving the place a happy,relaxed vibe.

Delicious fish and chips, just slightly overpriced

Stopped at the Harbourside for some food whilst exploring the Barbican. Great quality and very reasonably priced. Served. By a polite and helpful young man who went the extra mile to ensure we enjoyed our food. 🙂🙂

The chips were amazing 😍 but the kids meals are rather small overall nearly perfect!!!

Delicious full size portion of fish and chips. Have been here a few times to eat. Sat upstairs in the restaurant. Great food and nice service.

Always good and everything gluten free

Spot on food and price, staff were absolutely flawless, very busy but very friendly and polite would definitely recommend if your in the area.

We popped in today whilst out on the Barbican enjoying some sunshine. Everything was fantastic, the food, the service, and also the food arrived very quickly, it was piping hot and tasted fantastic. We’ve been visiting the Harbourside for many years and I don’t think we can name a single time that we were disappointed with the food and service.

A real traditional fish and chip shop! The portions are really generous 🙌

Delightful chips, lovely shop, lovely people. What more do you want. If you are in Plymouth you should definitely stop by here.

Quite simply the best fish I've ever tasted. Cod and peas to take out,freshly cooked so a small wait. Absolutely delicious.

Great fish and chips in a great location. Good fish at the market price. Cooked to order. Eat outside or in the more expensive restaurant upstairs but best of all get a takeaway and eat at your favourite place on the Barbican

First time me and granddaughter been here. Good service food so tasty.

Had a large cod and chips and couldn’t finish it.. It was delicious

Lovely fresh fish and chips. Very friendly staff Highly recommended.

I didn't have an issue with the good, chips were great. But I have an issue with WASTE ,because at closing time they chuck away any cooked food that remains when we have homeless people on the streets! A Bad policy!! Give it Away!

Great range of gluten free options and snappy service

Quick service , freshly cooked. Fish delicious. Sauces come in recyclable pots instead of impossible to open sachets . Friendly staff. Seating outside , indoors upstairs and takeaway. Would recommend.

Disappointing. Had chips from both restaurants, was excited for my gluten free ones. Sadly they lacked in any flavour. They messed up the orders for salt and vinegar on my family's chips, which made them taste even more bland. Such a shame as we hardly ever eat out and this was a treat.

Very disappointed with my delivery order, have had fish from here a year ago and it was good. But been delivered undercooked soggy battered fish??? Why? I wouldn't mind if they had taken some extra time to cook it properly no need for speedy delivery for raw batter!

Beautiful fish and chips, cooked freshly and very hot. There are some tables inside and outside for use.

Without a doubt the best fish and chips in the southwest. Very consistent also

We had been looking forward to eating here again after the last holiday we had. Henry is an asset to the company. Service is first class as is the food. Can't wait for our next visit.

The food is good in the fact it was gluten free however portions were small, my sons order was forgotten but that was ammended for free. No sauces on the table as ate inside .

Very nice food, and highly attentive and pleasent staff

Good food excellent value,friendly service.

The worst fish and chips I have ever had! Fish was extremely chewy and tasted old, wasn’t fresh and fall apart like you would expect, chips were undercooked and massively lacked in flavour! £23 for two small cod and chips Is ridiculous considering the quality, I would be more than happy to pay that if the food was good. Will not return! Such a shame that’s it’s the only fish and chips you can get on the Barbican, if it was elsewhere I think it would close

Food was lovely but expensive , girl behind the counter was rude when I was asking for a napkin and fork and told me It was in the box walked 10 mins back to my car and there was no napkin or fork.

£7 for an underwhelming, small for the price burger. Without any sides or even a drink. Price could be excused if it came with chips and a drink.

Expensive but tasty and good quality 🤷🏻big portions

had cod and chips with curry sauce, chips were lovely, sadly the god was very greasy snd had to be removed from the batter

Great fish and chips, all gluten free, hot and delicious.

Best fish and chips we've had in a long time. Portions are good so if you go large you had better be hungry!

Very nice here, staff are courteous and polite, and fish and chips, first class m

OK. Expected better for the price

I popped in here with a mate because we were looking for somewhere that was gluten free and this place had a gluten free sign on the window. When I asked what was gluten free, they said everything. I had a battered sausage and chips, which was lovely. The staff were friendly and welcoming, so we will return.

Oh WOW, what amazing meals we had. Fish and chips were just beautiful white flaky meat, and chips were just perfect. Battered saysage and chips were awesome. The service was great. Friendly team with smiles on their face. Will be back on our next visit to Plymouth. Best fish and chips yet.

We went to the gluten free side, amazing batter - best fish and chips we've had in ages

Really nice place to get fish and chips, slightly over priced but I guess that is due to location, other than that the food was really good

Bought food today at 11:20 open perfect think the chip's were from yesterday in the bucket dark in whiteness very poor taste when you know they were old chips.

Best Fish & Chips in Plymouth ! Batter is crispy, fish is fresh, chips aren't greasy, a tasty treat😋

Lovely fish and chips. The service was excellent. Staff were friendly and helpful. Very cleaning tidy place eatery.

Keep getting take away will have to eat in one day great staff

Most nasties chips ever very oily

Absolutely brilliant. The lady serving us could not of done any more very welcoming. COD & chips lovely not greasy. Curry sauce amazing. Will be coming back again. Thank you

Love, love, love their fish and chips, and scraps...

Great fish and chips. Beautiful location.

Absolutely outstanding fish and chips! We had the regular cod, chips and mushy peas meal deal with additional teas, eating in. Both agree it was the best fish and chips we have ever had!

Beat fiah and chips I've had in a long time, the seafood plater is amazing!

Brilliant chippy, great service and reasonably priced.

Edited review: went back recently and the quality was a lot better. Excellent service too!

Eat in at restaurant upstairs. Fantastic service. Food nice.

I been going here all my life and when I sat in they put food on a plate but today it was like they ran out off plate’s can’t be ask to do the dishes as we all got cardboard box and your menu on the website is different to the menu in and staff on there phone

Best Fish and Chips in Plymouth and you can get a bevy or two also and sit upstairs

The food was nice, lovely and hot... Good portion size, a wee bit pricey but like anywhere on the barbican you pay a small premium for the location. Thank you to the staff who were all working really hard 🙏

Fast service, lovely meal & in clean surroundings.....

Well absolutely fantastic last time soooo disappointing what a difference amazing can’t say anything else

Not the cheapest, but reasonable prices considering how expensive The Barbican is in general. And the food is excellent, really good quality fish and chips. Highly recommended if you’re in the area.

Spotlessly clean. I didn't get the name of the young man who waited on us, (the receipt says Henry?) but he was charming and efficient, and ever so polite, we loved him!! A real credit to the establishment!! Food was exceptional, absolutely delicious!! My son was visiting home for Christmas after spending a few years traveling abroad and had come from Canada, and had missed fish and chips so much!! The server could not have been more welcoming, which is just what you need after a few years away. If I could give more than five stars, I would

Staff didn't really acknowledge us just took our order seemed more busy in laughing and chatting with each other than paying attention to customers. Items were missing or wrong all in all not a great visit food was warm and nothing to right home about. Shame as normally a really good place to go.

Trust me, just go. You won't be disappointed.

Fantastic service and fish and chips were lovely, well worth a visit if you are ever in the barbican

Brilliant service from lily in the table service upstairs, and fish and chips plus the mushy peas were very tasty, one thing we would say is the paper the fish is on could be more absorbing than the waxed paper that you use now?

Very average which was disappointing compared with previous visits. Batter was soggy and they forgot to give me the curry sauce that I paid for.

Take out again tonight and never disappointed. The fish, Haddock, was cooked to perfection. Excellent as always.

Very nice fish and chips. Camp waiter was very friendly

Very disappointing. Fish was watery and batter was rock hard, chips tastless. Staff were friendly but never asked if everything was OK. Later found out the battery was gluten free but not by choice. We came because we saw the glowing reviews. Maybe just a bad day. Pity.

Went on here on the 27/10/23 in the evening . Very clean and tidy ,staff were polite and helpful, the food was 10/10 . Thank you to all at Harbourside

Lovely fish and chips although I would have expected fresh fish not frozen fish given the location. Peas were very dry, more a case of 1 slice or 2 instead of spoonfuls! Waitress pleasant and attentive

Recommended on Google. So gave it a try. Dine in as the weather was not so good. More a cafe then restaurant, but nice enough. Service was quick. Cooked fresh as I would of expected. Had large fish and chips with mushy peas. Peas were solid, more like one slice or two. So not very good. The fish and chips were nice enough, but this is the coast so would of expected fresh fish, it wasn't. Its also too expensive for what we received. Nice enough but not good enough for the price.

Always buy fish chips and curry sauce here. But today my husband got me some. The Chips were ok but the fish was like eating rubber. Curry sauce very runny as well. Disappointed as I’ve always enjoyed the meal.

Very delicious, friendly staff! 🙂👍

Been here few times, they've changed the batter recipe in the last few months and it coats the fish rock hard instead of crispy, the fish was watery and made the bottom of the bater soggy by the end. The chips were really good. Sadly not as good as it used to be.

The best fish and chips in Plymouth

Fabulous chippy on Plymouth's historic Barbican. Closes at 22:30, so often a life saver!

Very poor customer service I Been there today with my family I asked them I’m dine in but they made it is takeaway and theses is order number 151 I will never go back

For a late Sunday evening the service and quality of food was impressive. A very enjoyable fish and chips supper.

Food was excellent quality and excellent portions. Service was shocking, teenagers constantly fiddling with their hair then handling our order. No clear person looking to take orders. Girl finally taking my order couldn't understand the word medium relates to regular in sizes and couldn't hear me over her pal shouting next to her. Ordered 2 meals but got 4 packages with all items separately packed!? No salt&vinegar despite asking. Very disappointed but food was excellent after reconstruction of meals and disposal of extra packing etc. I hope the bad service was only a one off.

Tasty Fish & Chips. Friendly Staff.

Megan is fantastic and professional. She served us late on the evening. Great food. The fish is excellent.

My wife and I 'ate here today. The meals were excellent, the batter was really crispy, and the chips cooked to perfection. Thank you. Update - visited again on 12/09/2023 had regular cod and chips. The cod portion size was so small and the chips overcooked. Disappointing.

Best Fish & Chips I've had so far, and the portions are enormous.

£39 via Deliveroo for large cod and medium chips x 2 and one curry sauce. Fish okay, but probably the smallest portions of chips I’ve ever received. With a large proportion of the chips being crispy scrapings from the bottom of the fryer. Really disappointing and won’t be rushing back!

Gluten free fish and chips. Thankyou for making me feel like a normal person. Your gf only takeaway/restaurant is a breath of fresh air, no chance of cross contamination as it all gluten free. Freshly cooked to order to . 😁😁

It was tastyyyyyy, chips were perfectly cookeddd, however asked for lots of salt and vinegar, yet got a smidge of salt and no vinegar 🥲

£24.70 what is going haven’t been for a while some of the worst fish and chips I’ve had large cod sooooo overcooked and greasy you used to be brilliant so disappointing
