Lewy's Fish and Chips in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Disappointed as I've had a good meal from here when I called in a year ago when in the area. This time the small cod (and it was small) was dry and chewy and the chips, although plentiful and well cooked, were an odd bright yellow colour. Never seen chips that colour before. For the best part of £10 it was poor. I wouldn't bother again.

Best chips I've had in a long time! Went here because the first fish and chip shop I encountered had nowhere I could safely tie my dog. This one, I could at least order from the doorway (although a dog ring outside would be handy). Staff were really friendly. Prices reasonable and opening hours good. Not quite enough vinegar though 😉

Yep. Pretty darn good. Big portions and quality of fish was OK.

Best chips ive ever had anywhere in the UK!! Can not wait till we are back on holiday near by to come and have fish and chips again!

Arrived 20 mins before closing and asked the 2 seated workers if they were still open. They reluctantly said yes, no hello or greeting. Served without a smile as if they were being inconvenienced. Took our food, thanked them and left. No goodbye, nothing. Got the food home and half of it was burned and inedible. I would rather they had just apologised and said they had already turned the fryers off. Never getting out fish & chips there again.

Great fish chips and curry sauce at a reasonable price

Overcooked but the chips were nice.

Chips were ok. Fish was shocking & that's putting it mildly - for £7:45 the fish was tiny in size, wafer thin & overcooked. We won't be returning.

Brilliant food, best chippy around xx

When there is a queue outside, it's always a good sign! This was very tasty fish and chips, not too greasy and plenty for a good portion. The cod was tasty and fresh, chips were absolutely delicious and the scampi beautiful! Not bad at all for a takeaway. My only gripe is they turn down cash for payment. Whilst I was there, they turned down 3 customer orders as they wanted them to pay card instead of taking cash. Lucky for them, the customers obliged.

We are always pleased with our food from Leweys but would prefer.the chips to be cooked for longer. Thank you

Popped in as just wanted chips late afternoon. Yes the chips are pricey but to be fair nowhere is cheap now but wow…. The chips were delicious!!!! We sat in the car, hubby and I shared a portion and son and his gf shared a portion too, absolutely delish. Prob best chips we’ve had in a while.

Lovely fish and chips, nice light batter, good portion size. We ordered on the app and picked up 25mins later, no problems. Ate on the bench opposite- nice view!

Poor quality frozen fish and greese chips.

Lovely welcome…met with a smile! Great fish and chips. Stayed warm whilst we headed to the beach. I’d definitely go back again.

Excellent food and the team that serve are always friendly and professional. Would definitely recommend.

We had fish and chips from here while on holiday, it was the best fish and chips I have had from a takeaway for a long time, the food was cooked well and hot, I would definitely recommend a visit to anyone in the area,

Could not fault the place welcome with a smile 😊

Lovely fish and chips, cooked to order so a bit of a slow service.

I would say that the large cod was a bit on the small side for what they are charging at £6.95 The large chips portion is a very good portion for £4.00 The mushy peas were of a reasonable size for £2.00. The food was well cooked especially the chips. I would probably call again if I was in the area.

Great quality food, cooked to order. Friendly staff.

Fish was nicely cooked if very greasy. Burger and chips were inedible.

Online order, great. Ready to collect on time despite being extremely busy, great. Friendly staff, great. Chips cooked just right, fish very fresh and tasty. All in all really nice Saturday treat. Thank you .

The young blonde girl behind the counter is very polite and made sure I got what I asked for and also the younger male is very well spoken

Staff were lovely but completely out of their depth. Chips were undercooked and lacked flavour. Chunks were overcooked and fish was mushy.

brilliant service, staff was very helpful and wasn’t too long to wait. Food was delicious!

Large cod and the battered sausage absolutely phenomenal, great service and friendly staff, would highly recommend!!!

Loved the service and food. Would come again x

Really bad experience. Don't bother! Placed large order (£65) over the phone 19.05.2024 Sunday evening, we collected and went back to eat. As we plated up, realised we were missing the 3 large cod! The main part of the meal. When we rang to ask if it was there we were told we must have it and that the fryers are now turned off! After some debate they said they would cook the fish. We went back to collect and ask if they would do the lot again as by now it would be cold and they refused. We had packed and wrapped the chips and other bits back up but was still cold. Really bad service, bad attitude and blamed the customer....

They were amazing we had homemade fishcakes,pea fritters and chips,staff were great we will be back

Given 1star as no option to leave a zero star review. Can’t actually comment on the food as we left without having anything due to the staff being rude and utterly unhelpful.

Very disappointing, the girl behind the counter absolutely lovely, hence the 4star. The Bearded male could do with some training on how to talk to other staff. And don't order a chicken burger...... the most pathetic "attempt" I have ever seen in my life... photo below

Had a takeaway this evening and the fish and batter was well over done underneath..had alot of hard ends of chips 🍟 also VERY greasy on bottom of the box, not the best 😑 for sure on this occasion I'm afraid 😑

Most delicious crispy batter. The fish wasnt the best though and it still had skin on it. Maybe next time i shall try the cod.

Ordered on the App.Good service,Good food.

Used to always use this chip shop, but this evening the batter was really greasy and tasted of oil. The batter was the same on the fish and the sausage, very thick batter and small fish.

Came here for the first time last week. Had the hake and chips. The fish was cooked nicely, but the batter was quite greasy. Chips were a standard affair, and nothing special. It was worth the price paid though, and wouldn't discount the place again for a chippy tea.

Great fish and chip shops brilliant that offer pollock.

The food is cooked well and very tasty. This is a take away only business but has a nice small waiting area.

The fish & chips was really good not greasy, the service was good polite

Cod & chips excellent, nice batter, good portions freshly cooked and pleasantly served in good boxes. We’ll go again! We aren’t frequent but we are reg’lar!

Really good, very fresh and tasty

Not great I'm afraid. Had some very under cooked chips, possibly even raw..

Great fresh fish and chips. Great portion and good selection and price.

Went to try this Chippy. Good sized Kids meals and the food was cooked while you waited. Kids enjoyed it.

Gritty chips - nice fish but chips were gritty like they had sand on them and this was not pleasant

It's my local, & the best fish & chips in the area.👍😉😋

Very disappointing experience. Ordered 2 Regular Chips, 1 Cod, 1 Sausage and 1 Curry Sauce. The ordering experience was poor. The person on the till was friendly but found it hard to hear over the kitchen noise and made an error with our order. (Sausage meant to be Jumbo Sausage) We waited 25-30 minutes for our food which, considering the shop wasn't busy, in my opinion is way too long. We had to wait outside in the meantime. Luckily it didn't start raining. We finally get our food, only to find 1 portion of chips had no salt or vinegar on (we asked for salt on one and salt and vinegar on the other), the sausage was missing completely as well. We had to return to the shop to get this rectified. The chips were poor, the fish was standard and the sausage was standard. While waiting, 3 different customers came back to the shop because of errors with their orders. As it seems to be a trend for this shop to miss items from orders and we did not receive what was expected, I do not recommend this chippy. Food Rating: 2 (Standard, loses a star for poor chips) Service Rating: 1 (Very poor, should be 0) Atmosphere: 1 (Had to wait outside, lucky to not get rained on)

Delicious fish and chips nothing more to say 😋

AVOID!! The smallest and thinnest cod I have ever seen, really disappointing!!! So small the girl behind the counter said she topped it up with fish bites (what you give kids) you would think being in St ives the fish would be of quality. We took a few bites and lobbed them in the bin and had soggy wet chip sandwich even the chips wasn't up to scratch! Don't waste your money I wish I demanded a refund!!

Disappointing service! Got charged for dips and peas but they never put them in our delivery bags!

You order - You wait a short while whilst your food is freshly cooked- You enjoy what’s not to like ! Great tasting fish and chips

Very tasty my Wife and I had Scampi, fish Goujons, small Cod, Chip & Peas 😋😋

If you're in Cornwall this chippie is well worth a visit cooked to perfection.

Fantastic fish and chips. The best in the area with great service. Highly recommended

Came down for a weekend, searched best chippy in town, found Lewys, service was good they were friendly however my vinegar and mushy peas were not included in the order, I went back for the vinegar but didn't realise no peas until back to the digs... food quality, very bland and very greasey. Unfortunately not enjoyed at all...

Good tasty typical fish and chips shop.

Lovely staff and great food definitely recommend it

Obłędne jedzenie 😊. Jadłem pierwszy raz i się zakochałem 😍 wyśmienita ryba z genialnymi frytkami 😊

Lovely chips, fish cakes and curry sauce. Reasonably priced and fast service.

Loved there fish and chips tasty and good size portions

Eye-watering menu prices (i aint kidding folks), small fish was more like a fish finger. Long wait with small queue. Average end product

Really good fish and chips. Had 2 small cod and a large chips. There were enough chips for 4 people.

Cod, chips & peas was £10.40 - is that expensive? I don't think there were any facilities to eat in, but then with the overwhelming smell of 'old fat', you wouldn't want to. HOWEVER ...the product is above excellent! Say whatever you like about Lewy's, their fish & chips tastes bl***y good! And - it never repeated on me so despite the grease, I enjoyed my choices more than I anticipated..especially the fish. Forget the other establishments - try out this little known gem.

Best fish and chips in hayle, always a queue which is a good sign, friendly staff, good service, perfect food.

Best fish and chips I've ever tasted.

Food was great, but found the staff a bit miserable and not keen to help, they also charged us for extra food we didn't actually order however we ate that anyway as it was so tasty and wasn't going to drive back to complain.

Nice... definitely worth a visit

Fantastic fish and chips will come again.

Worst fish ever was so thin and thrown together don’t know if it’s because a lot of tourists down but very poor

Fantastic food, my whole family really enjoyed it.

Used while away on holiday. Food was cooked fresh while I waited, quick service. Still hot when I got back to the caravan. Good portion sizes very tasty. Friendly polite staff. Will use again and definitely recommend

Lovely piece of cod, chips were really good, nice friendly staff would defo use again

Highly recommended, excellent service and pefectly cooked fish and chips with a delicous curry sauce.

Great portion size, fresh and delicious. It's a little tradition I have to get a mushy pea fritter when going to the coast and they didn't disappoint. Hands down was the best one I've ever had

Amazing fish and chips! It was really crispy and well done

Jalapeño poppers and the fish was pretty good! Some of the better fast food stuff we had around. :-)

Amazing finsh chips amazing people

Really nice food. Had the battered jumbo sausage, standard cod and a large portion of chips (which was more than adequate for the two of us).

Perfect lovely freshly cooked fish and chips.... I make it now my first port of call after arriving back from the Scillonian. Forget Penzance for fish and chips...head straight for Hayle and Lewys fish and chips.

One of the best fish and chips I've ever had. The batter was so light and tasty, the fish perfectly cooked it was flaking easily and still had moisture to it. The chips were fantastically soft on the inside and crispy on the outside too with a very generous serving of salt and vinegar (just how I like it). I had a small fish and chips and it was just right as we'd just had one of the muffin donuts from over the road (which you also must try). Recommend thoroughly, best fish and chips in Hayle.

My family and I are staying here on holiday. We were looking for a tasty dinner that even my son who has lots of allergies could enjoy. The staff were knowledgeable about what allergens are in the batter, which made our meal choice was made easy. The food itself was delicious, and we would definitely go back!

Stumbled across this little chip shop this evening and I can’t believe we haven’t been here before! Top quality customer service from the lovely 3 ladies tonight, fantastic menu on offer and delicious food! By far THE best curry sauce around! This will be a regular for us for sure!

Amazing fish & chips. Great staff

The fish batter is the lightest I have tasted for a long long time and the fish could not be any any fresher. Delicious!

Food really nice, friendly staff, great prices

Nice cod and generous with chips. Peas are not mushy. Good service.

Usually ok but this time Lots of oil in the box all ran out of the closed went all over us as in the car went on an expensive handbag 😱

Some of the best fish and chips i have ever had in Cornwall. The hake and chips were delicious, freshly made and probably freshly catch by the taste of the fish. Perfect! Lovely, friendly, happy staff too.

Beautiful fish and chips highly recommend

Great fish and chips, nicely Covid safe, and effective ordering/collection system going on. Gets busy though, especially if Sanders is closed, so be warned.

Always amazing. We have to visit twice a week when on holiday, its our ritual.

Brilliant service food great a+

Super fresh fish. Even with a reduced menu still had happy and full kids

Small portions. Not worth the ques.

The worst fish and chips I have ever had, I read the reviews and waited an hour for the fish and chips, they were swimming with oil, the smallest peice of cod I had was also oily. I still feel sick thinking about them, I can’t believe there are so many five star reviews, just awful. Also extremely slow service! As I said I queued for an hour for this 🙁.

Stay clear of this place, full of bad attitude, no gratitude for your custom, just horrible service and horrific cooking !!!!

Beautiful fresh cod and chips. Covid safety measures in place.

Really nice fish and chips, friendly helpful staff. Great.

Very nice food, polite and quick service
