Minnie Bertha's Fish & Chip shop in Rother

We have been to this chip shop twice. Chips taste great and friendly service and spotlessly clean

This used to be my favourite chippy now it has changed to new owners and is now one of the worst I've had, charged £10.90 for cod that is the smallest and thinnest I've ever seen and is all batter, also the batter and chips taste like old oil, I will never eat here again

Burger appeared to be deep fried, very dry so had to waste it. Chips are good though

Horrid, awful,never again. We only had two sausage and chips. The sausages were hard and cold, and the chips were the worst I have ever tasted. They oil must have been months old and the chips refried so many times. I went into complain discreetly so other customers did not hear, but it fell on deaf ears. 30 minutes later, my stomach was churning, and my husband was actually sick. In fairness, he went back in to them and was given a full refund. To be honest, I would have preferred not to have felt ill and they deserved the money.

Battered sausage was the only edible thing. Chips were awful, n the huss batter was so hard. Nearly everything went in the bin

Had cod and chips, fish was ok but the chips were a bit odd, a bit tough on the outside 🤷.

I should have asked for more vinegar and salt after the walk home.

Fish watery and no flavour. Chips dirty. Disappointing.

Never again! Lady was rude serving, after waiting half an hour for the food expecting it to be fresh the quarter pounder burger was hard and dry! Didn’t even get the drink that come with the children’s meal!

The Cod is not Cod . It was a bad meal today . Still charged the price for Cod. When they used a lot cheaper fish. Not happy 😒

Cod and chips freshly cooked so a little slow but well worth the wait, absolutely delicious. Only problem is there is no free parking here as it was at the sea front.

Absolutely superb thank you so very much indeed 🙏

Cod was chunky and tasty, batter was not nice and chips weren't very nice

Now much better since it has been taken over by new owners.

Had a fish, chips and mushy peas takeaway. The chips and peas were nice. The cod was enormous but flat. It tasted okay but the bottom of the batter was a bit soggy which spoiled it.

Fantastic service and excellent food. Thank you will definitely use again.

We ate here with another family at lunchtime during the holidays. Didnt have to wait long and all freshly cooked. We have come here for fish and chips for the last 3yrs; food was as tasty as ever. New owners were lovely and friendly. We all loved it and felt the standard was the same as its always been! We will be back very soon!

Visited with my daughter after having many great experiences in the past. Now seems to be under new management. Chips were still nice. Sausages used to be nice, now inedible. Cod roe tiny. Overpriced. Not good enough, sorry.

Stopped here for fish and chips at the seaside. No specials, infact no fish other than "Cod fish" or so I was told. My total meal came to £18.50 large chips, medium cod, saveloy, gherkin and curry sauce. Everything was ok, chips were decent, the Cod was nice although very small for nearly £9. I'd use them again if I were in the area, but I would ask to see the size of the fish before I ordered it.

A wait for 5 mins or so, but the fish was so fresh, so well cooked. Quite large portions too, we really enjoyed it.

Is this the most overpriced fish and chips in the country? Just under £30 for 2 small chips, nuggets, scampi and sauces. Madness. The scampi bites alone were over £10. Then the audacity to charge for a bag afterwards. Won’t ever be going here again.

Open on a Monday which is rare in Bexhill... Good fish and chips.

I used to avoid this chip shop but it has now changed hands so I have it a go. I've only had chips but they were lovely, looking forward to giving the fish a go when I'm flush enough 😀, would however like to know why I can get large fish and chips in Yorkshire for £10 but not down south

Had pie and chips, chips weren’t bad, but The pie wasn’t heated up at all, was just wrapped and sent out. Wouldn’t be so bad if it had just gone cold but clearly had not even been heated at all.

Fish was lovely but the sausage was under cooked and curry sauce was very watery as if watered down chips were ok very disappointed

Unfortunately we did not enjoy our food as the chips appeared to have been reheated. Everything else was ok and made to order. Staff friendly.

Absolutely vile chips , reheated god knows how many times , hard and stale and definitely old, nothing fresh, shame as previous owner did the best fish and chips I've ever had , definitely won't be going back

Great food and service from a top takeaway. This is how it should be done compared to the excuse for a restaurant mentioned in my other review.

delivery time crazy for actual.order, 2 chips, 1 sausage, veg roll and the worst curry sauce I have ever had, like water with a very sweet taste, inedible, food was hot though

Visited today at 20:45 to buy having checked closing time on website saying 21:30. Told very rudely that they were closing. A real don’t care attitude to customers. Never again. RIP off prices & portion sizes by all accounts looking at other reviews. I can remember when this was a friendly, sensibly priced, good quality establishment. Sadly no more under new management.

Mini Berthas has been one of favourite places for fish and chips and not just for its location across from the beach. So when we had friends visiting from America, it was the obvious choice We had heard it was in new ownership and reviews have been mixed but our experience was excellent. We were surprised at on a sunny lunchtime, there was no queue but this worked in our favour as we had a big order for 14 people of fish and chips and burgers (both veggie and meaty). They were not phased by this and took the order efficiently and we were able to check this as they have a customer facing screen. The order was out within a very reasonable wait and they double checked we had drinks etc. Also they offered a choice of sauces and asked whether salt and vinegar should be put on all meals as some were for children. The food was all declared delicious and even suited our picky Americans!

Good food as aways Food sizes seams to of gone down quite a lot but it is the summer time

Best fish chips, have to que in summer but worth it. Just the right sized portions. Asked staff to dispose of box for me but the tall young girl just pointed to the bin at the rear of shop instead of helping so needs some customer service. It was clear I was struggling as I have a disability and tbf it’s just #rude

Had to wait 40 minutes despite having a text message to say it was ready for collection.

Under new management and food isn't as good.... previous owners seemed to think they had a God given right to the business they got....better fish and chip shops in Bexhill.

Good place near the beach to have fish and chips.

In stead of fish and chips I only got for nearly £16 just the cod. no calls or anything to let me know. on the photo is shown fish and chips but for £16 you let the customer know it's only cod and nothing else. not even a lemon was included. this is miss selling in my eyes.

Had small cod and chips . Cod tasted like was past it's best(rank,) chips were ok. Small portion was miniscule .Used this fish and chip shop for years really gone down hill since new owners have taken over ,won't be going there again.

Not the fault of the driver. Just poor performance from the retailer.

Bought medium chips last week for £4.50 .plenty of them but inedible. Although there was a wait the chips seemed as if they’d been hanging around. Hard, tasteless and strange taste. Threw them away, waste of money!

Lovely fish and chip shop, good food and very friendly staff.

Food was bad under cooked chips cold and cod didn’t even arrive

Excellent cod and chips, lovely crispy batter on skinless cod, best chips I’ve had in a long time! Second time I’ve tried it in a week, Will be back for more

Used to be fabulous,had some last Friday and really bad gone downhill now under new management not as good at all will be giving it a miss in future

Food was oily, chips were stale , not the normal wuality of minnie berthas

Highly recommended. Fabulous fish and chips, hot, crispy batter on the fish. Nicely presented in a box. We ate in nearby Kerrys cafe which is a permitted joint venture, so we were able to have a cup of tea with the meal and a place to sit. Order at Minnie's then collect and ask staff at Kerrys if its OK. I don't think you have to order anything at Kerrys but we are polite and wanted drinks anyway. Minnie Berthas is a tiny shop, and is not actually easy to see which way to queue, wheelchairs might struggle. Parking nearby free after 6pm, pay if earlier. Minnies and Kerrys are Right opposite the seafront so a lovely post dinner walk is just the ticket.

The nicest fish and chips u will get in sussex 🤪nice crispy batter on fish 👌had a fish cake too 🤪🤪🤪🤪so glad it’s on my radar ,defo going back amazing 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

It's a Fish & Chip shop, can't really rate it for atmosphere.

Seemed like that had very old oil everything tasted off. Very greasy - cod was barely detectable in the thick batter and very chewy, we thew it away - inedible and so expensive

Very good. New ownership, no complaints.

We waited 27 minutes for Cod, Chips and a sausage. Had to ask at the counter after 25 minutes for our food and only then did they box up our order. Pretty terrible service considering it wasn’t busy. Seemed to be focusing on Uber eats orders and they had 6 people behind the counter. Definitely would not recommend, absolutely ridiculous amount of time to wait. The chips were good but the batter was soggy and they put salt and vinegar on the chips without asking…

Don't bother coming to order here. Staff can't understand English. Overcharge you then forget your order. Totally terrible place. Avoid at all costs

lovely crispy batter on the fish.Went down very well.👍👍👍.

Ordered 3 dinners to only receive one of the 3 portions of chips which were cold. Expect better service and staff that can count and forfill a order correctly

The smallest fish and chips I have ever had. Extremely thin with loads of batter. Still hungry so went back to tell them. No response. Not cheap. Don't go.

used to love it here but i visited recently and the quality of service and food has really gone downhill. such a disappointment

Both mine and my daughter chips had multi hairs in them. Really disgusting

Waited 40 mins for large chips to be told I had to pay £4.50 for what was clearly small chips. Then the 15 year old behind the counter told me that's the price for that size chips?? Then they where undercooked when eaten. Avoid avoid avoid. Rip off prices for poor quality food.

Nice food, but a bit overpriced.

Love the fish and chips here and the fact you can eat your tea in Kerrys and have a drink.

Lovely fish and chips, all cooked to order.

Two times in a row that they have cancelled our order for deliver on Uber Eats for the same delivery time. If they don’t want to deliver as far away as I live then maybe they need to change with Uber the distance that they are willing to deliver

Highly recommend. Generous portion of chips. Fish cooked to perfection, as I like saying it tastes fishy. Mushy peas were good too.

the young lady that served us was fantastic. she was very polite and attentive, even when my kids were being impatient. compliments to the young lady with long blonde hair. what a fantastic service she gave

Really good fish and chip shop, never disappointed. Always busy for good reason.

Just opposite Bexhill Marina, this takeaway-designed fish and chips shop is a must to try. The store is small but is clean. Food choices are good and the food we ate are delicious. The food portion are just right, we ordered cod and chips and onion rings. You can pay by cash or debit card. Three table option outside but you can enjoy your meal standing with condiments at hand inside too. The staff are accommodating and friendly. There is a box place you can leave feedback too. Best of all, its MSC certified. There are pay carparks nearby. No toilets though.

Very friendly staff, food was cooked fresh for our large order but was still very fast and perfectly done. Any food division was checked to make sure the food could go together (no pork in the same box as fish). Chips were perfect. Will be back.

I went on Thursday for the first time and it was lovely. It was my wife's 50th the next day and when I asked her what she wanted she said fish and chips from the same restaurant. It was even better the second time. My wife is the fussiest customer you will have and she now loves the place. Ignore the reviewers who rave about the place and then only give it 4 stars. They're idiots.

First time I’ve been here and was welcomed by very friendly staff and the fish and chips were cooked to perfection lovely fresh fish and chips .

Fish was so undercooked I might as well have bought a fish tank and let it start swimming.

Brilliant, freshly cooked and reasonably priced fish and chips. All served up, with a smile, by the excellent staff. A sunny day, so sat and ate outside this great seafront shop.

When work brings me towards Hastings I have been known to get fish and chips on the seafront at various places, though I do object to their tax-dodging cash-only scam. However, on this occasion I had to do a work visit to Bexhill and found myself at lunchtime on the seafront, and having not been here for fish and chips, thought I'd give it a go. I just randomly picked Minnie Bertha's as I was right there. I have no knowledge of Bexhill, so nothing to compare to, and no prior knowledge of where to go. Firstly, they offer a cod alternative which happened to be pollock. I do like pollock, so gave it a go, and at £6.40 with chips was a nice surprise, and, I paid by card. Awesome. I took my package to a bench on the seafront. The chips were magnificent. I have often had chip-shop chips that are dark, flabby and sour tasting, but not these, which were bright and fresh, crunchy outside and fluffy inside, more like a restaurant or pub chip than a chip shop. I might even say these were the best chip shop chips I can remember ever having. And then there was the pollock. This was amazing. The freshest and crispiest batter, no soggy areas, and the pollock was so fresh and light, and with a nice surprise of a wedge of fresh lemon. The real test with me comes an hour after I've eaten, which is when I often regret having fish and chips and end up feeling uncomfortable. Not today. Not even close. Minnie Bertha's beats any fish and chips I've had in Hastings, and may even beat Lyme Regis too. Taking into account that this was half the price of cod and chips in Brighton, and better, I have to conclude that this place is outstanding. Very friendly and happy staff too. Now I will have to try and get more work in Bexhill, because I want to do this again. I can't recommend Minnie Bertha's highly enough. I'm sitting here at quarter past midnight on a Tuesday night and still thinking about it, it was that good.

Without a doubt the best fish and chips in Bexhill and St Leonard’s but no longer open in the evenings which means I can’t get them anymore

The best and most atmospheric chip shop in Bexhill. However there is usually long waiting times (sometimes up to 40 mins) and their opening times are always changing (they aren't open on a Wednesday for some reason) but worth it for the food as I have never had better.

Great chips highly recommend this place 👌

Absolutely amazing nothing more I can say

Had seriously delicious takeaway haddock and chips from here. The fish was such good quality I thought. Friendly and efficient service. My daughter couldn’t eat all hers, and when my husband ate the leftovers a few hours later reheated he still thought they up there with the best he had ever had!

Our family & extended family eat Berthas nearly every single Friday. Love the fish! And it is locally caught too.

Lovely food and friendly polite staff

Don't know what happened to this lovely fish and chips shop, food is great, but have they now become a part time chippie. They used to be open 7 days a week, I believe you should have break but it looks like they're only open 3 days a week WHAT HAPPENED? And only open certain times where they were open all say. Really sad!

Very fast service, good portions and great food. I got the white bait, the calamari and some chips and it came to just over £14. There was more than enough food for me and my friend. It was delicious and there was plenty of variety on the menu.

Ordered via eat app Delivery . Best fish & chips I’ve eaten in a long time . I ordered a large cod & small chips . White succulent fish , crispy golden thin batter & nicely cooked chips . Well packaged &hot on arrival . I highly recommend Minnie Bertha’s …. quality food cooked fresh & to perfection.

What £8.60 for med cod £2.90 for chips total £11.50 chips very cold cod tasteless and very dry stay away definitely don’t recommend

Friendly service, but our haddock had bones in it. Large chips were on the small side but quite tasty.

Lovely piece of cod, batter was perfect, no claggy layer of wet flour you get at some places, light and crispy as it should be. Wasn't dripping with oil either. Chips were good chip shop chips, too . Our go-to eaterie whenever we visit Can't recommend highly enough.

Very much enjoyed the fish and chips!

Very terrible service and bad behaving staff

Was recommended 'Minnie Bertha's By my mum as we have just recently moved to bexhill ... Ordered cod & chips & plaice & chips to eat on the seafront, plaice was nice, but no way was it cod that we were served, the texture was totally wrong, such a shame, but chips were good, will get fish checked to make sure .

Was down Bexhill visiting for a few days and decided to try here for dinner one night. Absolutely terrible! Prices are way too high, the wait for our food was far too long and the food was bland. Not to mention the rudeness from the manager and poor service. Never again!

Good chippie, reasonable prices, clean premises and friendly staff. Just what you want from a local chip shop. (For reference I had the Scampi with chips and mushy peas)

Exceptional fish & chips and great value. I had one of the tastiest haddock & chips I’ve ever eaten and it was less than £10. Right on the seafront so I ate it on the beach. Cooked to order and very friendly service, I couldn’t have asked for more.

Been here many times.this visit both our fish was very thin.and for nearly £23 wasn't good value.will try again some time.but have goon elsewhere recently better value

Sadly, not as good since the business changed hands. I no longer go there.

Took my order and paid then had to wait 25 minutes outside in the cold. Still waiting I was directed to Kerry's café where I was told I could eat my food. A further 20 minutes passed and my order arrived and was totally wrong. Wrong fish and no chips. Went back to the shop and demanded a refund. Told they would correct it but a further 45 minute wait was not acceptable. I then went to McDonalds. Served ate left in 20 minutes.

Best chips I've had in years! I rarely leave reviews but wanted to let you and others know how much they were enjoyed. Highly recommended

Very disappointed as we checked the time for opening hours on the website says open till 9.30 .on arriving at this chip shop notice even said 9.30 open till .But when we got there at 8.15 staff was cleaning up got told we are closing now in a very rude manner def needs needs working on there customer service skills .Also Do think there going to advertise opening times on website and in the chip shop window stating these times and closing earlier maybe need to think about changing there advert.

A fish and chips to take away or eat at the bar next door (they bring it to the bar). Spectacular, fresh hake, very well battered and cooked. The potatoes are also very good, they do not neglect any of the product. They have a children's menu and make other dishes (burgers, sausages, etc.) for those who don't fancy the classic fish and chips. It is very well priced. In conclusion, a highly recommended fish and chips. I would dare to say that it is one of the best in the area.

Great tasting food friendly staff small hadack and chips £6 absolute bargain best chips in Bexhill

A lovely friendly chippy with really nice fish and chips.
