Great fish and chips excellent service by Emma and other staff members. Group of 53 served fantastic. Tea/coffee, fish, chips with sides, bread and butter with ice cream puddings. Nothing too much! Catered for a big group with excellent timing for all! Thank you once again!

Mermaid Fish Bar serves some of the best fish and chips in Leeds! The fish is always fresh, perfectly crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside. The chips are golden and have just the right amount of crunch. The portion sizes are generous, and the prices are reasonable for the quality you get. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that the service can be a bit slow during peak times, but it’s definitely worth the wait. Highly recommended for a tasty, traditional fish and chips experience!

The fish was nice and a decent size. Let down by the chips which were brown, soggy and looked like they'd been sat there for a while and cooked in oil that was long overdue a change. Ordering is a bit of an ordeal too, instead of just asking your order they are keen to know if you want fish the second you walk through the door but seem to want to guess the rest of your order. Not cheap either and cash only.

My husband and I thought we would visit the mermaids fish restaurant in Morley . When we arrived the restaurant was empty, the staff were pleasant, showed us to our table and offered a menu. My husband chose the regular fish& chips ,I had the large fish and mushy peas when it came my husbands was a good portion ,but my fish was over cooked dry and not what I expected as a large fish , it was not much bigger than the regular fish. We complained and was told it was the correct size for a large fish and the excess of batter was normal. It was replaced and a slightly larger fish and light batter. Very disappointed and very over priced for what was served, not at all like the pictures on the advert. We have gone to the mermaid since it opened as the fastnet and never had to send our meal back and expected to pay for it. Won’t be going again.

Went here yesterday lunchtime with a friend, and from the start, we were greeted and entertained by Sol who was very helpful. Service was second to none, and he was able to reaccommodate our original seating due to the sun being in our eyes - after a bit of tongue in cheek, mildly sarcastic humour, which I fully appreciated! The fish and chips were delivered quickly and were just as you'd expect - delicious! All staff were friendly and helpful. I'll certainly be going to the Mermaid again! Thank you!

We have recently moved away from Grimsby where the fish and chips were extraordinary. We recently visitted my son in Leeds and fancied some fish and chips. After looking at the reviews we went to the Mermaid. Ordered 5 fish, 2 large chips, sausage in batter, curry sauce and scraps, the bill came to £33 very reasonable. The batter was crispy, fish was soft and the chips were hot and fresh. We were very happy with the meal and will definitely be visitting again.

The food is worth 5 stars but taking cash only when to feed a family of 4 is about £30 I find off putting as during the pandemic we are advised not to use cash if possible plus I don't carry that amount in cash with me I prefer to use card, much more hygienic than watching someone take your money pass you change then wrap your food up. Not hygienic at all. Shame because the fish is great

Top quality Fish and Chips cooked in Dripping, truly wonderful! This is a gem of a traditional English fish and chip shop established over 60 years with a busy takeaway and quite a small restaurant with basic seating. Car parking is limited to an area out front but the rapid turnover of the takeaway usually avoids waiting. Some attempt has been made to improve disabled access via a small ramp but a little patience is required to negotiate into the eating area. The Skyliner has had a reputation for good quality, well cooked food since its inception. Unlike many businesses which have deteriorated with time it has made an effort to keep its standards high and is just like as people would have experienced in the 1940s & 50s. To modern tastes occasionally the service might seem slow with up to a 20 minute wait in the restaurant but that will be because (depending on what you order) your food will be cooked specifically for you from the ingredients. Service was very good with helpful and pleasant waitresses in attendance. I try to go every time I am in Leeds which sadly isn't very often nowadays.

Very expensive for fish and chips, £10. Quite a small portion. Fish made to order and it was nice and crispy. Chips not so great, all different colours from probably frying at different times. Will not visit again.
