Minnie Bertha's Fish & Chip shop in Rother

Always used to get food here, however since it's changed ownership service is extremely poor, not good value and food dripping in oil, not a good experience

Used to be the best in bexhill Gone down hill now. Slow service and ridiculous prices. Food was flooded in grease. Made us feel ill afterwards. Won't be returning.

This was my first visit to this takeaway. Ordered 2 portions of medium cod each with small chips. I expected a wait as they cook to order. When several orders that were after me were ready, I questioned the long wait and they said they had ‘lost’ my order. When it eventually was cooked the chips were very good and crispy. The fish was rather small for a ‘medium’ portion costing £9.50. The batter was light and crispy. However, the oil was old and tainted the batter, so we couldn’t eat it. I would not go there again.

Why? Because if i had rwad the revews i would have spent less money and more importantly spent less time in the bathroom! Minnie Berthas was always the chippie to go to. Not any more! Over priced and very greasy batter chips. Please contact the previous owners for tips on how to fry the perfect fish and chips.

Never going here again, it’s gone downhill since previous owners. Fish was more batter than fish and very greasy. Chips were tasteless, curry sauce was like water and don’t get me started on the price! I understand things cost more these days and I’m happy to pay for good quality but this was not good quality. Such a shame

This was my first order for delivery from Minnie Berthas. Even though order was late, the fish was gorgeous and the chips were cooked to perfection. Fish and chips were piping hot. Will definitely order from them again.

Last time was really nice. Tonight absolutely horrible threw over half away very strong taste of stale cooking oil. Would definitely not go again !

I arrived at the shop and wanted my favourite - “Pea Thingy’s” but the fryer said he had none. I explained that I’d driven especially for them and he offered to make them fresh for me - top customer service in my view. They are delicious, the only thing that could make them any better is a little mint in the peas ❤️

Lovely food. Arrived warm. Would recommend

the cheese burger way over cooked and not able to eat , chips cold . we don't feel that was done intentionally but when your looking forward to some good food and you receive sub standard food . Paul

Visited near by Hastings and ended up here to get something to eat. Took 30 minutes to cook/prep our meals and the cod & chips did not taste of anything and felt sick afterwards.

Minnie Bertha’s has changed hands! However the quality of fish & chips is even better than before! The couple are making an enormous effort to deliver top quality takeaway fish & chips for their new owner! Polite, friendly and trying to do all to make a success of the new opening times!

Oder placed 6.30 delivered 7.55 hour and had wait truly to long terrible service food stone cold. Poor service chaps not good.

Sausages and saveloy were lovely. Chips were nice and crunchy. The meat in the burger was so overcooked it was hard and gritty, nearly cracked a filling on it. It's not the first time from here either. Just avoid the burger. Rest of the food is good.

Ordered cod and chips but the fish was incredibly oily. The chips weren’t great either - a little on the hard side. Regarding delivery, the delivery time kept changing (albeit not by much). When the driver arrived, he didn’t ring the bell and just let himself through the front door a second after knocking! Overall, we were disappointed.

10 family members ordered cod and chips from Mini Bertha’s today. We were a little bit nervous as we knew it had changed hands, but thought we would give it a try. We needn’t have worried, all the food and service was excellent. The fish was absolutely lovely and fresh and cooked to perfection. We all thoroughly enjoyed our food. We will definitely be back!

Fish and chips were very good. staff are very kindness and very helpful and polite Services I hope this is very good fish and chips and bexhill in sea beach area

Fish and chips were very good. staff are very kindness and very helpful and polite Services

our drinks were missing. delivery driver told me to.phone the shop but the number doesn't work.

Food is over priced. We ordered for delivery and in that order we paid for 3 drinks which weren't delivered. The delivery driver told me to phone the shop. I phoned the only number I could find for Mini Berthas and it was out of service.

Phone number not valid? Ideal for resolving issues with missing items from your order!

Well, clearly not as good as it used to be. I didnt think it would make much difference with new owners, after all its just fish and chips right? Wrong my belly is cast iron but the oil seems to be different or old. Second time I tried it and chips did the same thing last time. Was nice at the time. But something has changed...

Just eat delivered on time but driver I think not sure what code was so came back to door and asked for my mobile number as instead of saying code I said 8354 as that is what he asked for

food was horrid won't be using these again cod bites are all batter

The food never arrived! The tracked shown it’s been delivered. But it’s not.

Ordered through Just Eat, order was accepted but no update was given, delivery time came and went and still no update!

Excellent service if excellent food. Worth noting that though the picture for cod shows chips with the fish, they have to be ordered separately. This is great for choice, but could lead to disappointment for people new to this restaurant.

This has got to be the worst fish and chips I have ever eaten and I have eaten some bad ones in my time but this used to be a family favourite but no more. You pay for thick soggy batter with a thin bit of fish. Over £50 for 4 meals and literally most of it went in the bin. Minnie Berthas has gone down the toilet and the palm oil they use tastes fowl. Gross dinner and biggest waste of money. For shame on you, for shame!

Good tasting chips and sausage!!

order was wrong i paid for a large cod and it game the same size as the medium cod and i had less nuggets than what i paid for

Popped down to Bexhill for a walk on the beach with the dog on Christmas eve and stopped for fish and chips. It was really good, chips were great and I though a decent price too. The lady serving was lovely even gave us a saveloy for the dog. Will definitely be going again when I'm next in Bexhill

Been going to Minnie Bertha's for at least 10 years for days out by the sea with cod and chips. I read that it had declined under the new owners but wanted to judge myself. It has definitely gone down in quality and size of both the large cod and chips. The fish used to fill the box and be 1cm think. Not half the size and thickness. Chips were OK but overdone. Unfortunately I will not be going back there are there are several other good chip shops a little way back from the seafront.

Took over an hour and the fish was inedible. Oil not drained off the fish. Literally swimming in a puddle of oil. Also forgot to include my curry sauce. Chips were nice but overall not worth £20 in my opinion.

Cod is terrible no flavour think it's frozen as thin as a piece of paper and cooked in very old oil that you can see all over the wrapper

Fish was over cooked, batter was brown rather than golden so fish was dry, and way too much grease, by the time I got home (2minutes) the boxes were soaked in oil. Chips over cooked too.

Previous owner was good , The current one is really rude , He don’t know how to deal with people , when I got delivery from uber eats the guy told it will take 5 to ten minutes, , after all it’s take 35 minutes, in between every 5 minutes, he was telling that , it’s getting ready , when it’s ready I try to make sure all the items was there he told everything was there , after I delivered , I got call from coustmer, and told that 2 packets of chips was missing,I sorry to him and try to call shop but it’s don’t works , later I gone shop and Inform the man ,he told will deal that with uber eats , told please make sure next time everything on the bag , he was very rude , he was blaming other staff done that , actually it was his mistake, highly attitude man don’t know how to deal with people . But the staff member told sorry , poor lady

The best fish IPs I’ve had in absolutely ages

Terrible service. Order never arrived despite saving it was delivered. Order placed at 6pm and still wasn’t delivered by 8pm. No telephone number to call either to quiery the order. AVOID.

Ordered via Just Eat for 6.40pm delivery. Still NOT here over an hour later.

We gave over an hour’s notice for this order, plenty of time to be prompt. However, OVER AN HOUR LATE! There is absolutely ZERO EXCUSE for this. The time just kept going up and up and up - even when the food was enroute the driver was apparently sitting in one spot for ages according to the map…. The time again went up and up and up!!! Safe to say, we won’t be wasting our money at this establishment again. Poor service especially as you CANNOT RING THEM!!!!!!

Nice piece of fish ,chips and battered sausage tasty ,good value for money will order again

Fish smelt odd and was not cooked through chips were fine

Hot and freshly cooked food, great value and super friendly staff. Nice and clean, 💯 recommended

Fantastic food so fresh, delivered promptly.

Excellent battered sausage and chips. Fantastic service. Highly recommended. Definitely saved in my favourite places to eat. PS .. The pickled eggs are amazing...

BEWARE .. This place only has good reviews and ratings from its previous owner…Haven’t visited since new management and will not return. So overpriced, Saveloy and sausage not cooked and stone cold. Poor service and despite ordering in advance waited around for the whole order to be cooked even though the app stated food was ready to collect..the women in the shop could not have cared less. Worst fish and chips in Bexhill please do not waste your money here. Will never return to what once was a really decent chippy.

The pie wasn't very warm and the pastry was doughy

Food was hot, nice and tasty, would have again

Pie wasn’t as cold and not as big as I would have hoped. Otherwise chips and chicken nuggets were good.

Food was hot and tasty. Felt it was a bit on the expensive side though.

After a seafront walk, it was just perfect. Big portion, reasonable price too.

Delivery driver was very helpful . Top bloke

Good food and very polite delivery driver

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

Food was cold due to delivery driver. No fault against company just the staff they use.

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 🤷.

Fish watery and no flavour. Chips dirty. Disappointing.

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

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 🙏

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

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

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
