Pleasant staff serving standard chippy fair, decent portions, my only criticism would be that my cod was a bit on the thin side...medium cod, chips and mushy peas £12.50

Just ordered a takeaway for three from John's and we're really impressed. From ordering online to delivery was less than twenty minutes. We had medium cod and regular chips, also spring rolls with halloumi bites chips with curry sauce, they were all delicious and piping hot with generous servings. The batter on the fish was lovely and crunchy, the best I've had in a long while. Will definitely be using John's Fish and chips again. 🐠🍟🙂

We have been buying from John's for at least 8 years, but its not quite as good as it once was. Two specials ordered for take away - Fish was very dry with more batter than fish and the chips were just lots of small bits and pieces. Its now very expensive, £18.60 for two specials and a jumbo savaloy. Going to try somewhere else next time.

It's a takeaway fish and chip shop. Does the job! It can be a bit of a wait (10 mins) when it's busy. They do gluten free fish and chips as well as halloumi bites. It's always been great, in my opinion. I think it's well priced as well, particular for gluten free food. I very rarely get to eat food like this, so it's great that it's available.

Whenever I’m in Hailsham, I always get Haddock and Chips for myself and my wife and we are never disappointed. The chips are crispy on the outside and fluffy potato inside. The Haddock is always cooked perfectly and the batter is delicious. I have no hesitation in recommending Johns fish and chips to everybody - they are how a true fish & chip takeaway should be.

They deserve six *!! The fish and chips here are the stuff of dreams. Batter that is so crisp it shatters in your mouth, fish that is delicious and chips that are a meal in themselves. Friendly staff and a good price. It doesn't get better than this. ;) Since writing my review I've become gluten intolerant. Not a problem for these guys. Separately fried fish and chips in gluten free batter means I still get to enjoy a favourite 👍

Brilliant. Considering the Brits are known for their fish and chips, a lot of places don't get it right but John's certainly do! Beautifully cooked chips and a deliciously crispy, flavoursome batter. The cod special is just the right size and a steal at £4.75. It's great I don't have to travel outside of my town to find a decent fish bar 👌

I don't know what has happened to this place, it used to do amazing fish and chips and other food. After having chicken and chips from there yesterday evening I have been up half the night being very very sick. The same thing happened to my husband a few months ago after eating a battered sausage from there. We gave it another go but after yesterday's experience we will not be back I'm afraid. They must have some serious hygiene standards issues which I'm inclined to report. The food was also very greasy and tasteless. You may do well to avoid.

This place used to be one of the best places in the area for fish and chips and other food, but sadly it seems to have massively deteriorated. Apart from the extremely slow delivery times, last night I had chicken and chips from here and woke up in the early hours feeling very ill and ended up being very sick throughout the night. A few months back the same thing happened to my husband after eating a battered sausage from there. We gave it another chance thinking we may just have been very unlucky, but clearly not! They obviously have very poor food hygeine standards. Oddly I looked through the official published list of food hygeine ratings and they weren't even on there. I am now going to contact Wealden Food Safety Team to see if they can investigate.

Recommended by family member who has been many times before. We took a ride out from Dartford to Eastbourne and stopped off here to see for ourselves what the fish was like. We knew it was cash only so not a problem. We arrived when it opened at midday and placed our order and it was cooked to order and brought to our table. The entire meal served on a warm plate and food nice and hot too and served directly from the fryer. We had the cod which was cooked to perfection, with light crispy batter and flakes of white fish (no grey in sight like some other fish we have had elsewhere). Chips so nice, proper chip shop chips and all washed down with a nice cup of strong tea. If you’re in the area or out for a drive as we were, then definitely pay this place a visit. Nice warm and friendly welcome is waiting for you and some smashing fish and chips.
