Kings Fish Shop in Middlesbrough

I went in on my dinner break from work and got a kids special to find a hair in my food selling aldi fruit drinking as fruit shoots will not be going back

Ah, where do I begin with the towering culinary catastrophe that is *King’s Fish & Chips*? A name so deceptive, it feels like an insult to the very notion of royalty. If this establishment were to truly represent kingship, the British monarchy would need to issue an official statement of apology to the nation and possibly abdicate out of sheer embarrassment. Let us begin with the timeliness, or should I say, lack thereof. After waiting what felt like the gestation period of a blue whale, my order finally arrived. And by "arrived," I mean it limped to my door in a state of such profound disarray that it could only be described as a cry for help wrapped in soggy paper. Not slightly damp mind you—no, this paper was so drenched that it had practically fused with the food. It looked as though the entire meal had taken a dip in the Tees before being delivered. You could wring out the packaging and probably fill a teapot with the greasy runoff. The "large" cod... Ha! A cod? No, no, dear reader, what I received was a goldfish with dreams of grandeur. I’m convinced the kitchen mistook a minnow for a cod and proceeded to batter it in an act of defiance. If this was "large," then the fish must have been reared in a pet store tank under the supervision of an indifferent shopkeeper. The fish was so small, I was half tempted to throw it back into the sea in the hopes it might grow into something worth eating one day. Ah, but the pièce de résistance was undoubtedly the children’s meal—an abomination of a battered sausage drowned in what can only be described as cement-mix mushy peas. The peas, dear God, the peas! Thick, congealed, and on the verge of hardening into some sort of grotesque green sculpture, they covered the battered sausage like an invasive species overtaking a habitat. One could hardly tell where the batter ended and the peas began; it was as if the meal had been prepared by someone with a profound grudge against childhood joy. In conclusion, if you seek disappointment served with a side of soggy shame, look no further than *King's*. If you, however, wish to preserve your dignity and gastrointestinal health, might I suggest eating literally anywhere else?

Best food I had in Middlesbrough chips were perfect

I had visited yesterday here for ordering fish and chips. The portion of the chips are large and fish was in decent size and the cost of the fish and chips are cheaper than other shops. And I brought chip butty and some burgers. must visit this place again.

I went here on Thursday for food, I got kabab and chips. The kabab meat was over cooked and tasted like it was left over from the day before and the chips were the same, absolutely rank, I felt ill and so did my partner. Bad stomach for two days. I will never go there ever again bloody disgusting should be reported. This place use to be good, different owner now 🤢🤮🤢🤮

Not to long wait for fish to fry.

Very good staff and good quality foood

I visit Kings Fisheries every Tuesday when visiting the market and my Fish and chips are cooked fresh every and I always get a friendly service

Amazing service and lovely people!

In N/Ormsby it's not the only Fish bar in the area but in my estimation it's the best.

Nice staff, clean but the portions are small. This is a large chips apparently. Disappointed...

Excellent and good quality tasty food. Great value

Always happy and polite. Follow current restrictions and care for customers

Fish is cooked fresh to order, very generous portions, really enjoyed it

Please check change from this place I had poo go balk three times because of the wrong change and one of the times she just took 5 20ps and gave me a one pound coin in replacement like she can't comprehend that she gave me the wrong amount of money

Friendly staff great good at good prices

Asked for extra large cod and got Moby Dick. And Half a stone of chips. Fish was cooked to order so really fresh and very hot. Overall outstanding

Pretty bad really had fish n chips chips cold fish cold and batter so sloppy and oily had to just eat the fish itself onlything good was curry and a can of coke won't be using again ever

A pretty good place to go; I'd best describe this place as a traditional chip shop; service has always been polite and fast; food has always been well cooked with decent sized portions

wow fish and chips always fresh and tasty give you very large amounts

Only a takeaway..on main highstreet and only a small shop.no buggy's or wheelchair access.

This was a dining experience of rare quality. The fish was so fresh as to almost still be alive. I would travel just to eat here. Well done to all at Kings!

Want to make sure your chips are cooked befor you serve them. I didnt get them cheap so i dont expect half of what i ask for. Theres little wonder fish shops dont do so good anymore with the rubbish you are all selling.
