MARINO'S FISH BAR in Gravesham

Brutal honest review. USED to be one of the best around but nowhere near as good as Lucky Jade , Chinese/ fish and chip shops never do well and this is one of them. Under cooked flimsy chips, I would complain about portion size but they are going in the bin. I have tried his shop at least twice a year since the owners took over years ago and always disappointed . Please concentrate on Chinese cooking and leave fish and chips to someone who will be bothered to cook it as it should, never had mushy scraps before untill today. Had a rude reply from the owner. I can cook fish and chips I worked at your shop when it was a good chip shop in the 90s .... to tell your customer to cook it themselves is great for business ! The point in paying for a takeaway is not having to cook it , you could at least make sure you cook the chips properly.. I will share your response to friends and family lol

Ok fish fish but not much taste. And of course, if you can't take criticism, go on the defensive and have a go at your customers! Intelligent move "Marinos management". If only your fish were as tasty as your comebacks 😆.

Just had food from here well can't really call it that chips were horrible tasted like fish wot if I was allergic sausage in batter really soft made us feel sick

Iv have used Mario’s fish bar many times for fish and chips tonight I decide to try the house chow mein also the honey roast pork, I also had a side dish of the satay chicken the peanut butter sauce was amazing it was cook to perfection the honey roast pork was delicious and and tender, I will definitely be having this again highly recommend, Mario’s for fish and chips and a must for a Chinese

Amazing food full of flavour. The shop is very clean the staff are great but the owners are amazing our family have been eating here for 25 years best in kent

Only keep chatting with familiar customers but ignore me who is the first time here. They said "Thank you, though" to me when I received the food... The following is a reply on 9th Sep, 2023 to host's answer on 7th Sep, 2023: In short, hope you can realize that building customer relationship starts from respect and politeness to ALL new customers.

Used this place for years wife gets fish and chips every Friday I order Chinese every so often they made a mess of my order when I called them they made out it was my fault. Won't be going there again and there's a fish and chip shop 200 yards down the road

Expensive curry sauce and chips!!!!!

Best Chinese chippy ever! Absolute regular now and would never buy elsewhere

Love this take away. Such a friendly welcome and all the food is freshly cooked. Such a wide range of food to choose from, from good old fish and chips to a fabulous selection of Chinese food. It is the best around. Thank you Harry and Denise you are the best!

Fish cooked on day previous ,not cooked fresh

The best sauces around never disappoints

Amazing fish and chips and Chinese. Clean, excellent food and staff are lovely. Always use here for our fish and chips

Have been using Marino’s for Years. Always top quality fish and Chips. Their Chinese food is also excellent. Never had any problems. The shop is immaculate and the staff are always happy and polite

A teslly lovtky piece of Cod and great Chips. Very friendly staff. 5*

The special curry is to die for I'm just going to order 1 now and if you like chow mein the special is great. If you haven't tried it you haven't had great Chinese yet

Lovely Chinese salt and pepper chips and ribs omg 5star and duck in black bean Peking spare ribs is out of this world 💣

People friendly and great food.

Been going here for years. Always delicious and ideal for us as I can't eat fish and hubby loves it so he has his fish and chips and I get a Chinese. Problem solved. Tonight was cod and chips for him and Singapore rice noodles and spring roll. Absolutely lovely. Thank you. Xx

I eat there a lot and have done for many years food is brill a one ,also lovely people to talk to

Lovely place for a takeaway at a good price very generous on the portions especially the Chinese

By far the best chippy in gravesend. Have been going there for over 20years and always been consistently good. The staff are always lovely, polite and efficient, even when there is a queue.

great chinese food or fish n chips, well priced and great service never been dissapointed

Visiting England and each time looking forward to pass by! Awesome Chinese dishes! My boyfriend knows this place from his childhood (25+ years!), the lady is always cheerful and nice, the food never lost its quality!

Use regularly, the fish is the best around and the chips are good! Also serving chinese food ( delicious)which is a great combination and great tasting. The staff have got to be the nicest and most friendly I’ve come across.... I highly recommend using Marino’s , top quality , good prices and excellent customer service 😊

Denise Harry and all the staff are lovely. Polite friendly service food always good

Best fish and chips in gravesend, moved away few years back but when I visit family here I always treat my mum to her favourite

If the women wasn't rude that worked here the place would be good, she brings the whole company down. Someone needs to put her in her place. The Chinese women this is aimed at. The rest of the women are polite never had a problem with them

Lovely food very clean good service

The battered sausage batter was not cooked properly, the batter on the cod was so greasy it wasnt crisp at all!

Good quality fish and chips. Only accepts cash no cards.

Top fish and chips also does Chinese

My husband is fussy and will only eat fish that has just been cooked. They offered to cook some fresh with a little wait . Very nice people and lovely food

Chips n battered sausages r always family favourite along with curry sauce. Love this fish bar

Always an excellent service. Good food good prices friendly family run business. I've been using this takeaway for years even though i have moved away from the local area i still come back as I've found nowhere to comare with their quality.

Always clean. Staff very friendly. Lovely chinese food and fish and chips are lovely too! I like that you can see them cooking. Not behind closed doors. Our local for chinese and fish and chips for over 10 years.

Always good and consistent. Very friendly.

Have come here 3 times in total so far - 2 lunchtimes and a friday evening and the food has been great each time. Fish batter is always crispy n chips are well yum. Will definitely be coming back! Service has been good too very friendly and polite.

Amazing salt and pepper prawns - and great chips!

Just wish it was open on Sundays

Very nice food also have a Chinese food section always fresh and very good service

Used to be good don't go in on a busy day

Very rude over the phone when I questioned a Chinese order no apology or asked to come back in to resolve the problem will not be using this again When I called in I had not finished order and you was trying to put phone down before I finished you kept saying you couldn't hear me, you repeated things over again to which I then got confused!! In past experiences with other takeaways they have been apologetic but it was the rudeness ana when I said ok I won't use you again your response was if you say so!! I have been using the fish bar for years and been a good customer so expected a little better that's all

Never again would I buy fish and chips from here fish wasant cooked properly batter was soggy when it should be crispy chips where all bits we had to throw it all away

The best fish and chip shop around

fresh and hot, does Chinese too
