Marino's Fish Bar Beaver Road in Ashford

On the evening of 31 July I visited Marinos fish and chip shop and purchased a large Huss, large cod and a small portion of chips to take away.Having used Marinos many times before my wife and I were looking forward to our supper as the quality has always been excellent. We were sorely disappointed. Both portions of fish were extremely overcooked - the fish was hard and the batter brittle. The chips were even worse, they had obviously been cooked a long time previously and weren’t at all crisp as normal. A dreadful meal, nowhere near worth £22. We have always enjoyed Marinos food but in future we will try elsewhere.

Absolutely disgusting chips and under cooked sausages. Not even fit for a dog. Chips stank of fish. Horrible and where binned.

Nice Greek food to takeout .Always order in advance, and only a short wait when you arrive.Not as plentiful as it used to be but still not bad value.

Passed here many times before. Short on time with my daughter so decided to stop. Chicken burger was not a breast of chicken as he said it was. Portions were huge but chips were greasy as were the onion rings (reconstituted onion). Kids portion way too big. And my daughter (11) had to pick the greasy batter off to just eat the fish. She gave her food 4 out of 10. I was tending more towards 5 but was trying to be generous as the guy was nice and friendly. Overall very disappointing. Will never go back.

ordered standard Cod and Chips , the fish was OK but the chips were very poor , not worth the £11 for a take away .

Very disappointed! Only ordered standard fish & chips and one portion of scampi. Waited 42 minutes (other costumers were in and out and I was still waiting). My daughter was in the car and after half an hour she came in the shop to see what was going on. I am a very tolerant person so I waited and didn’t ask questions. I have been away and wanted to spend some quality time with my daughter so we decided to order some food and take it to the beach in Hythe to see the sunset. By the time we would arrive in Hythe, the food shops would be closed so we’ve got a special bag to keep the food warm till we get there and I just said to my daughter it would be worth the wait anyway… after all of that time we finally went to the beach and what a nasty surprise when I opened my box and the fish wasn’t fresh and the chips were all burnt and looking like leftovers that were just chucked in… well…only my daughter ate her scampi and afterwards we went to McDonald’s as it was already too late to find something else. I don’t know what happened and I really love Marino’s fish and chips, this was truly disappointing …The staff there could at least said something as I was seating down there and just watching costumers coming in and out. I would never have written a bad review if the food had been like I am used to. I don’t mind waiting if it’s worthy the wait. I was really disgusted when I looked at my food.I will still buying from them but not from this shop.Florbela Martinho

1 rated .the owners have given up the running of this once great chippie.prevous visits had a guy cooking a burning the cod roe ( it was black in part) .now we have 3 girls cooking / overcooking the fish the fish should be golden not dark brown with the fish crispy in side and dry ...chips were like warm slugs . Looking for elsewhere now had to many poor ones from here .I had spoke to a young girl ,may have been a member of the family a few months back who did sort it out before but she appears not to be there now.Was very good and I have written that but now this is a regular event . Time to move on .

Had a takeaway today and unfortunately it did not meet my expectations. Have had many takeaways from here but I really feel that standards have slipped somewhat. The chips did look nice but they were hard, don’t know why? Fish was small and a bit tasteless, and underneath the batter, not much of it. There weren’t many chips either but as I didn’t eat the ones I had this didn’t really matter on this occasion. Don’t know if I will risk it again.

100% recommend for everyone excellent Fresh & crispy fish + homemade tartare sauce recommend !!! Ben there many times and never let me down !!! Thank you 🌈🍀 Will definitely come back!!

My wife and I often used to use Marino's when we lived in Stanhope, and it was always a bit dearer than other chip shops but we never minded, because it was great food and very generous portions. During the recent lockdown, we fancied fish and chips one evening, so I had a look at the new app Marino's have launched. I couldn't believe my eyes. I was horrified. Large chips are £4.80!! A jumbo sausage on it's own is £2.75!! A large cod is £8.40, but then you have to buy the chips separately at £3.00 for a standard portion, so it's really £11.40. Even a standard cod with chips is £10.25 so you're still looking at over £20.00 for two adults. Those were the first shocks. Now for some more. The home made tartare sauce is £1.55 per portion, (So that's another £3.10 just for a condiment which should be free) the bottled vinegar is £2.35, (just buy it in Tesco for 50 pence) and a 1.25L bottle of Coke is £3.60! Even a wedge of lemon for your cod is 20 pence. The restaurant also delivers alcohol - four 440ML cans of Foster's lager are £10.00! What an utter joke! To add insult to injury, there is a "service charge" of 50 pence added to the final bill, and to top it off, if you live beyond a certain radius you will then be charged £3.00 for delivery as well!!! I can't believe they charge these prices, nor can I believe people actually pay them. This such a shame, I always loved the food. I hadn't used Marino's for some time, but I definitely won't now.

We have regularly used Marino’s for fish and chips over the past 3 years and have always been very happy with both portion size and quality. Was intrigued to see the new Greek street food additions so ordered our usual fish and chips and tried the gyros. Small cod looked like a tail, chips were soggy and tasteless. Gyros were ok portion-wise but pretty tasteless. Not sure if they’ve changed hands recently or struggling with the volume of online orders, but not quality we're used to.

We use this place about 3 times a month. During the pandemic, their delivery service has been good, although up to an hour wait is common at busy times.We recently ordered on a Thursday rather than our normal Friday. (it was the 25th March).I ordered the Large Haddock, although they never have Small Haddock, so it should probably be called ... er... Haddock? Usually this is fine, nice batter and good and hot, not over-cooked. However on this particular Thursday last week, it had a tangy aftertaste. Not particularly pleasant and I did not eat all of my fish.The chips were fine, much better than the soggy flacid "fries" at big chain takeaway establishments.The massive disappointment and complete waste of money has been the "home made" coleslaw. We used to love this, and order it regularly. However, it is just a slurry now. Over-blitzed in a processor until there are no lumps left, WTAF? Disgusting is putting it mildly. It's not coleslaw and they should put this right ASAP.I feel like giving them one more chance but am on the cusp of not bothering again.Why do people change a good thing? The staff are lovely, whenever I have gone there to pick it up, and the delivery drivers I've had are fine. Also, it's worth trying the Greek stuff they offer on their website, as it makes a change. Variable quality, but we were knocked out by it one time, it was so good.The email acknowledements from ordering can be weirdly behaves, sometimes I get 3, then other times none, but, whatever.All in all, it has been great, but perhaps they are trying to cost cut too much?

Well, that's a story. Ordered, with 55 minutes expected delivery. 1 hour and 15 minutes called to ask where it was. 'We have no order for your address' well you have taking the money from my account (checking mu online bank statement). Oh, yeah you ordered through Foodhub. found it. I ordered through your own website! Anyway, 1 hour and 45 minutes later food arrives with delivery guy having trouble finding our house, never mind the fact he parked up 20 meters away from the front door and walked in an opposite direction! I can only say, never order through their web site. the are completely unorganised. Unhappy customer!

Was very disappointed with the fish and chips, not only did it take 1 and a half hours of ordering to come, I had to phone twice, the excuse was I had ordered from Kennington and not Beaver Road, which I had as last time we used Beaver Road, they delivered to the wrong address so had to wait another hour before they could deliver. The excuse was they couldn’t get drivers, if this is the case then they shouldn’t offer delivery. Very very disappointed I won’t be using them again that’s for sure.! I know we are in a pandemic but surely if you can’t deliver SAY

Only popped in to grab a portion of chips on my lunch and I can honestly say they were the worst chips I’ve had. They were soggy and tasteless, and they put far to much salt on them so my lips were stinging after a few chips.... threw them in the bin! And what’s worse is they wanted to charge an extra 10p to have the chips in a polystyrene box never again!

We ordered fish and chips for 4 adults by telephone and collected, all okay until we got home. The battered cod was soggy and had bones. The grilled cod was undercooked. And, the chips were more like mashed potato. The worst fish and chips we have ever had.

Smelt good,tasted bad. Overly expensive,fish was dry and tasteless,chips were mo better. Shame,shant bother again.

I just enjoyed the best Huss and chips I have ever eaten. Huss was succulent and pure white absolutely gorgeous. Chips were dry and crispy. Would definitely recommend. Bravo Marino’s!!

Had a lovely takeaway from here. Not greasy or reheated as others can be. Sauces all homemade and what a difference that makes. Clean shop and nice polite staff. Would highly recommend. In fact we already have.

Regular for a takeaway on Sat night but have to say chips have gone downhill on last to trips more like oven chips in appearance and very dry. Will givethe kennington one a try as Beaver rd not great to behonest.

In Ashford Marino’s is arguably the best however the competition is not hard to beat, we are regular clients and re entry most of the time when we order Fish and Chips the chips are overcooked and all ends they look disgusting, the fish is overcooked, batter hard and dark and the fish inside has shrunken away from the batter. It is such a shame quality cannot be consistent. We always use Marino’s and have been reasonably happy, but recently produce and quality has gone downhill.Come on Marino’s up the game, I’d rather pay more and get great food every time.John

Had fish and chips early afternoon, great friendly service and the fish and chips where heavenly, best we have had in ages, this can so depend on who is the chief is and on Friday 17th Jan 2020 was superb.

We visited this Fish and Chip shop on the way back from Faversham and have to say this was the most expensive Chip shop ever. We sat in the restaurant and looked at the menu and was surprised that you had to pay for chips on top of your order! £5 for a pie and then £3 for chips on top of that! Also be aware that the food is also served with a side salad covered in oil! This was not an option and did not say on the menu! Never been to a chip shop before and had Pie, chips, gravy and a salad!! Bread and butter was a £1 and it actually was a tiny roll, £2:50 for a soft drink too. Back to the Fish Inn for us!

We have used marinos for take away and home delivery for two years, but only tonight decided to try the restaurant. Lovely cheerful staff greating us at the counter as usual, and we were seated and served by a very bubbly lady who took great pains to ensure my family had a great visit. The food was wonderful and portion sizes very generous! Cannot recommend this place enough!

The staff are extremely helpful and nothing is too much trouble. First impression was excellent, food is really good not greasy at all. I would definitely recommend this and I would come back. Price is what I would expect in a restaurant and for what we had. could not fault it at all.

Visited mid afternoon and was only one other customer, had to wait 5 minutes to be served, ordered 2 bags of chips, which could have easily been served to us then but instead we waited 10 minutes and everyone disappeared with no one watching the food. when we eventually received the food it was warm but very dry. the Customer service let it down

I have to say the service in the restaurant on beaver road was very good but the food is amazingly overpriced. I thought the price of the fish was the price of the meal. I've never been to a fish and chip restaurant and not had a meal deal. Be aware of this when you look at the menu.

Had take away cod and chips from here quite a few times Pleasant staff, spotless in all areas, and lovely grease free chips, Well done

Many times have used and nefer fails. Beautiful fish. Good range of items cooked while you wait a fairly long time but worth it

An hour late, dry fish and stone-cold chips. The girl on the phone’s explanation was “he left an hour ago with five orders”. In other words, “your order was cooked an hour and 20 minutes ago and is therefore an hour and 20 minutes past it’s best.” I would expect take-away to arrive within 30 minutes of being cooked. This guy didn’t even come to our house: I had to walk to another road to “find him”. Result: cold food, over an hour late. Fail, fail, fail

I have been using Marino's for fish and chips for years (10+). I called in this evening for some chips for 4 people and my son wanted some chicken nuggets. I called in at 9.20pm to be told that as they close at 9.30 they had stopped cooking and that I could only have one small portion of chips. I said that as the door was open they should still be taking orders, declined their offer of one portion of chips and vowed never to return.

We googled restaurants on the way back from Camber Sands to London and came across this place. The restaurant was clean and the staff very friendly.

We decided to visit Marino's as we liked it when we lived in Ashford, had some difficult choices as I wanted everything I couldn't get at home in Stirling, wife had cod, I had rock salmon, otherwise known as Huss these days, accompanied with chips, gherkin, battered mushroom's, everything was cooked too perfection, very clean restaurant, staff impeccable, when I return to Ashford for a visit, we'll be back.

My ex used to live in Ashford and when we split up I was more upset that I couldn't get fish & chips from Marino's anymore (as I live in London) - I sometimes work that way and when I do a trip to Marino's is always done before I go home ;)

We came here for an early teatime eat-in meal.

The chips were completely inedible as was the fish cake I ordered. Oil was either dirty or they were old chips recooked... We just couldn't explain it. The fish cake wasn't like any other fish cake I've had before either, it was dry & incredibly thin and the batter was like that of a battered sausage. Having spent over £26 to get delivery I'm unimpressed some of the food wasn't edible. The only good thing about the order was the lamb burger, that was lovely and the double decker deluxe burger. Just a shame about the rest.

Such nice food, wonderful staff and lovely atmosphere. Will definitely come back. Share platter for 2 could have fed a small family..

This is our favourite place for a fish and chips. The fish is good and tasty. Chips are not oily and well cooked even if i personally prefer when they are fried twice :) Well done!

They have changed how their app works, they have removed the option to have a plain burger and add what extras you would like, i didn't notice this and my burger arrived with all the bits i don't like in it, and to top it all off the onion rings were cold and burn't, won't be ordering from them again.

I organised an event and needed some catering provided at the last minute. Contacted Orthy at Marinos and he delivered 100 portions of sausage and chips bang on time ensuring my event ran smoothly and with 100 very happy guests. Thanks Orthy for sorting that, you are a top man

Abdolutely brilliant. I been going here since 2005 and now they have restaurant too. Boss is so pleasent and it’s a family business.

Best fish in Ashford great staff friendly and polite. The fish was cooked perfectly not greasy and the large cod is actually large

I visited the Kennington branch today to order a takeaway for the family. When I got home I realised there was an item missing, my southern fried chicken. When I rang up they disputed my order, saying there was no chicken written down. I got back in the car on a cold and wet night to drive back and question how much I'd been charged, and lo and behold they had charged me for the chicken.

Have used this fish and chip shop on many occasions. Always had good and timely service with great tasting food

Without doubt Marinos is the best fish and chip take away in Ashford. Excellent quality of fish in a beautiful batter.

Went there early afternoon and had the usual cod & chips. Really good fresh quality and service. Delish!!

We visited today as a large group and everyone enjoyed their meals.

Lovely birthday meal for my dad tonight , they are regulars but I have never eaten in the restaurant before . What a lovely family run restaurant so welcoming and friendly, great food and great service !

On dog sitting duties over the bank holiday weekend in Ashford, I was a bit worried were I would get our usual Friday night fish and chips fix but came across Marino’s (Beaver Road) website and found that they delivered. Unfortunately I do not have a ‘smart device’ so I could not load the app but telephoned at lunch time and was talked through the ordering process by a very patient lady. Online order of 2 x cod and chips and a saveloy for delivery at 7.30pm and once again after a couple of telephone conversations I was reassured that my order would be delivered at 7.30 that night. At 7.20 with my sister and I sitting in the garden enjoying a well deserved glass of fizz there was a knock at the door and our fish and chips arrived – lovely fresh fish, loads of chips and one of the best saveloys that I have tasted for ages, all piping hot and the dog enjoyed her little taster. We would certainly use Marino’s the next time we’re in Ashford and have recommended it to the others who are on the dog sitting rota, hopefully next time I won’t be so ‘appless’.

I had grilled halibut and chips and it was superb. One of the best pieces of fish I have had in a fish and chip restaurant.

I have often stopped off here for fish and chips and it has always been wonderful. In fact this is quite possibly the very best British chippie in the Ashford area ( haven't tried them all, but Marinos surely has to be exceptional ) with large portions of properly cooked food, without the usual three day old fat taste and smell of other local places. Try them, I think you will enjoy the experience of friendly staff, great food and a clean and tidy place. Easy parking too so, Five star!

I come here twice a week to get plaice skate cod huss excellent food staff so pleasant people moan about waiting the wait is well worth it .its the best plaice I have ever got fish and chips from well recomended

Thought I would let you all know .I still use this restaurant and it still hits the high marks .I have read that people find / see food cooked in the cabinet and people waiting .I think the answer to this is if you request it and it not an order ( as they always cook fresh ,yes and you wait !) you can get it.I was there last week Man walked in ordered all the bits from the cabinet and left ......

The best fish n chips takeaway I've eaten. Marino's was recommended to me whilst we were staying on a local camping site and the cod was the best we've eaten in a long time. It was that good that we had it on both Friday and Sunday evening.

I have stopped buying chips here because of the wait. They never seem to have any chips ready, even with lots of customers waiting. I have regularly waited for 20 minutes or more from ordering food that is always in the hot cabinet. It’s a long wait for ‘fast food’. It’s always the chips aren’t ready, and when I get them home they are soggy, not cooked enough and not even slightly crispy.

This is our regular fish & chip shop. It is consistently good. We always have regular cod, regular skate & regular chips. The portions are very generous & the food is always cooked to perfection.

Firstly what wonderful staff so so friendly But on a level par is the food!! Wow such good value Cooked fresh, beautiful tasty food Lovely new restaurant to the side Thank you all

Great Fish and Chip shop selling all your traditional fish and chips excellent portions never had a problem.

I took my wife to the fish and chip shop so we can avoid the football as it was our wedding anniversary and I was trying to be romantic the staff were very welcoming and very friendly.

Members of the Hamstreet 50/50 coffee club visited this place for lunch and we all enjoyed a delicious meal. The service was good and would recommend for a visit.

Outstanding quality fish and chips, without doubt the best I have ever had in the whole of the country.

I was at a house party for the royal wedding and the hosts ordered a large order from Marino’s for us all . ( about 60 quests)

Lovely fish and chips. Great choice and great service ! Menu has a great choice. Also do takeaway. Plenty of parking.you can order takeaway online or phone ahead.

We have had fish ,Burgers, chips ,savs ,gherkins ,Roe,Etc and We very much like it .

Just set up the caravan at nearby site and we’re starving. Quick service, fresh food, large portions. Good parking .

Consistently the best chips in Ashford. They have recently extended the building so you can no sit in the restaurant area to eat or using the an app you can no also get them delivered.

I heard on the radio last week that not only does this chippy have an app, they also deliver!! I must admit I hadnt had chips from Marinos since 2010 when they were abit soggy & not very pleasant but last night watching the rugby I remembered they delivered so thought id give them a go! Making an order was quick on their super easy app. It was completed at 17.15pm, I chose delivery asap but it suggested could be upto an hour, not a problem...to my utter astonishment, the doorbell rang 9 minutes later!! The food was packaged well, all hot and above all not a soggy chip in sight! They got the order exactly right! Then there is the quality of the food, I have to say this was by far the best fish & chips ive had in a long time! The prices too are insanely cheap!! Will most definitely be ordering from them again, have already recommended you to my family who regularly come down from London for dinner! Cannot recommend this place enough!

Nice new parking entrance shame about the actual parking are. The portions are very generous, however the pies we had were not so nice, hard crust in places and different temperatures throughout the pie.

Whenever we want fish & chips we always go here, the choice, qualiuty and value is excellent. Sometimes there is quite a queue as it is so popular but in fairness the staff are well orgainsied and get you done fairly quickly. A lot of the time they are also cooking to order. They also now have an eat in facility.

Worst chips I have ever had, lumps of potato peel, eyes, mashed up and bright yellow. Tasted as bad as they looked. Will not go again

We visited yesterday and ate in the new restaurant. It was lovely to have freshly cooked fish. To top it...

At last the restaurant is open. The take away is always been great but eating it at the table meant...

Always cooked fresh, a long wait at busy times but well worth it, a very comprehensive menu. Recommended

Marinos has gone downhill. Poor service, poor quality food, and everyone who ate the fish contracted diarrhoea (not the best...

Nice standard fish and chips, with large portions at reasonable prices. Very quick service, plenty of choice.

Slow service and long waiting time but worth it :) Definatelly would recomend the food just chose quite time ;)

I've used this chip shop many times, that was why we traveled across town. We were very disappointed, £2 for a small bag of chips. I really should of taken the over cooked, reheated greasy small bag of chips back. Absolutely awful, will not use again. Shame as the used to good, I'm sure it is new owners.

We had been travelling back from abroad all day and arrived in Ashford at 7pm on Friday night 29th September. We decided to stop at our usual venue to get fish and chips as a quick solution for something to eat at the end of our day. I wished we had not bothered. I ordered our usual large cod and large chips just after 7pm and was served at 7.30pm after asking how much longer did I have to wait. I had left my wife sitting in the car outside. The place was busy there were 4 serving behind the counter and another one filling phone and app orders. When I was finally served the I noted the fish had been in the warmer shelf since I had been there so why it took so long to fulfil my simple order I do not know. I did express my concerns before leaving. When we got home and unwrapped the fish it was dry and clearly overcooked. It also tasted salty for some reason. the chips were also dry.If it had not been so late and at the end of our long travelling day I would have taken it back. We left the batter and ate the best of the cod and some of the chips more through being hungry than enjoyment. We have always had good fish and chips from here but since the expansion of the premises and introduction of the app quality and service has declined. Failure through their own success. We shall not be returning as there are 4 other fish and chip shops in the same driving distance.

I have been using Marino's in Beaver Lane for over 10 years now and they have always been very good. As it was my Anniversary and we had all had a drink i decided to try their online delivery service, this was fairly easy to use. We ordered a Plaice and chips, 2 x Cod and chips, Scampi and chips and 2 jumbo sausages with chips and curry sauce this cost me £34.65 and was delivered quickly. The chips were dry and hard to eat( they seemed like leftovers from lunchtime. My plaice was yellow and like boot leather to chew and the batter was to dry to eat and i had to leave most of it which is unusual for me as i don't like wasting food. The cod was the same as well. The only things that were edible was the scampi, the sausages and the curry sauce. Out of 5 plates of food i would say 2.5 plates of it was thrown out as it was so bad. Both my Son and i felt sick after eating this meal too. This was the worst Fish and Chips i have ever had from any Chip shop and even though i have had many years of good food from this shop i won't be using them again a total waste of my money.

Just a simple portion of chips were ordered. Sprinkled with salt, and splash of vinegar is all that was needed to turn these golden fingers into the most delicious chips.

my order/ 2 medium cod at £5 each plus a medium chips at £3.30. two bits of fish no bigger than a large battered sausage.when I question it I was told that the server didn't make up the prices!! .what the small cod looks like I carnt imaging ,a cat would feel like it was on a diet . if this is the normal at this chip shop then I highly recommend that you avoid the place .there are plenty of other far more generous establishments with far nicer staff come to that. I only went in cause its sunday and all else round here is closed. ended up with kentucy {£2.69 more and I got 10 chicken/4 chips/coleslaw/beans/large pepsi/wipes,salt,pepper,and serviettes} chip shop 0 kfc 1

Great welcome.Ridiculously long wait to be given food as we could see it fresh cooked and waiting in the cabinet half an hour before we were given it while she served a lady who came I to the shop several minutes after us and filled telephone orders and app orders when the people came to collect them. My special treat of a large huss was old, dry and chewy. Not the light, tasty fish it should be. The chips were just about OK - they used to be superb.All in all a big disappointment.Rebuild Singleton Fish Bar SOON!

We've used this place a couple of times, extremely busy and popular. The first time we went and collected our food but the second time we had it delivered which was so much easier. Lovely food, very tasty. Can recommend the cod, we had large cod which was far too much, a small piece would have been enough. The curry sauce is amazing. Definitely be going back.

Perhaps I'm doing this place an injustice... the fish n chips is OK but it takes an age for them to come up with the goods, and sixteen quid for two portions and a can of pop?Is that he going rate? Used to be *much* cheaper back in the day. As a child I could easily afford it out of my pocket money.

Mariners is our favourite fish and chips shop in Ashford. Great chip, great fish with lovely crunchy batter, very friendly and professional service. Also they now have a smart phone app for pre orders.

Everyone has the fish and chip shop of choice and Marino's is bar far the best choice in Ashford. What they lack in speedy service they make up in great taste, fair prices and good portion sizes (you better be hungry).

Been to every other in ashford but our favourite has recently shut so thought we'd give it a go. How wrong was our decision. There was only one other customer in store so didn't think we'd wait too long and was never told a waiting time for our order. We was aware that later evening orders would be longer anyway and as others have previously stated that food is freshly cooked here, so was prepared and willing to wait for a tastier meal. Waited around 15 minutes approx. About an hour before closing time. Price came to around the same amount we usually spend, in the region of £20, so assumed a similar service to all other shops we've visited. Thoroughly disappointed and will definitely rather miss out on fish and chips than eat here again. Portions of chips were fairly adequate but less than some other local Chippys. Burgers were tasteless, coming from a chef, and were very average. Cod is charged at £3.30 (mini), £4.70 (standard) and 5.50ish (large). Was completely horrified to find a standard cod that was literally the size of ONE young's or bird's eye battered fish fillets . Went back in to complain to be told that's the size of standard, you should have seen mini!Probably the same amount of fish inside about 3/4 fish fingers. No offer of a solution or even an apology as we were clearly not happy. Customer service was extremely appalling and staff were rude, as most of the responses to feedback on TripAdvisor suggests. They really do not like to be criticised and are extremely rude and unapologetic. Would steer everyone away from here, there are much better fish and chip shops offering a lot more than here in the local area, both food and service wise. Yes the food was not completely disgusting and was edible but portion sizes are ridiculous for the same amount of money, in places actually more and frankly, I don't think this nor their delightful service outweighed its ONLY positive of cooking to order. Would honestly not even give it the one star.

First time at the shop and definitely won't be the last. served very quickly by two very polite smiley girls, didn't wait long for them to be ready, and we enjoyed our fish and chips immensely..... what more can you ask.

Brilliant place to get Fish and Chips, we have been coming here for years and have no bad words to say about it. Great service and great food!

I've got to say that the grilled haddock from Marinos is first class but the chips are at best average, I always ask to not have the small bits of chips but every time it seems like I get extra so I end up throwing them away.

Good food, freshly prepared, friendly and polite service. Fish bites good value for money and pee fritters worth a try

Discovered this place last year and now a regular pre Eurotunnel stop off point. It's a little way off the M20 but is really worth it if you have time. Plenty of parking and the service is quick.The quality of the fish is good and the chips are probably the best I have ever had. It's a shame it is more than 200 miles from home

All staple fish and chip shop fare available, cooked to order, order on entry. Very popular. Plenty of parking. Reasonable prices and good portions.

Always think the food is great in here. Have been coming here for years.Do lovely burgers and fresh rolls

Had a fish and chips for lunch, they do very nice tartare sauce, fish cooked to order so fresh and crispy, definitely will be back!!

Beautiful piece of cod lightly battered and cooked to perfection- admittedly it was quiet so I was really well looked after - the staff were lovely - the tartare sauce (homemade) was absolutely delicious ! Chips - yes, v good too !! Thank you :)

Karios is always very accommodating when we order our delivery's for staff when we have parents evening.Food is always hot and cooked beautifully and arrives on time. email responses are always quick too. Thank you for making it easy for me to order

Been coming here for a good 2 years now but it's started to go downhill. Came in Monday of this week. Never have food ready. It's a fish and chip shop so why not have the fish and chips ready? And the prices...VERY expensive for a little fish and chip shop. Portion sizes are much smaller than a few years back. Not sure if the owner is trying to make money but clearly losing out as losing custom like this!! Also, when it's busy- not a chance of getting your food right, or any apology if goes wrong. The quality of food is hit and miss lately. Often worse than good. The service is also hit and miss. I've had the occasional polite young lady serve me, however most times served by rather rude young girl - complaining about hours on multiple occasions !!! and even whispering- not good with lots of people waiting. Felt very ignorant. Will try the new chippy down the road from now on .

Mr Karios and his boy cook quality food. They have been doing this for years and the quality has never been anything but brilliant.Burger, fish, chips, sausage, black pudding, curry sauce. All cooked fresh and good value for menu. Friendly staff and always polite.You only realise how good they are when you have F&C from somewhere else. Long may it continue.

The best fish and chips what ever had. The double decker is amazing and the small chips is large! There's everything from fish and chips to battered black puding. (Mushy pea fitter, battered halloumi cheese, potato fitters, battered calamari, tartare sauce)
