NEW COD ON THE BLOCK in Southend-on-Sea

Best fish and chip shop in the world

very nice staff and lovely food

Beautiful burger and chips , good portions , nice quality food , top service . Will definitely come again

Nice and fresh. Very helpful, sociable young lady

John's telepathy can be entertaining: like some of the far bigger fast food networks the products are consistently satisfying - that's enough to make me a regular. Also, New Cod is often faster than the fast food giants and always delicious. It's value for money and well worth a try. If your lucky, you can catch the customer parking space right outside the shop. New Cod's already an old favourite and glad to see it reopen recently - a FIVE! :)) Also, lately, the complimentary free crisps thrown in with meal orders at the counter are a real treat (naughty but nice). 2024 update: AJ is the perfect new host & Charlotte is, similarly, a cashier who goes the extra mile with her unfailingly amusing customer banter. I'll still be a regular - even when the prices increase in the near future: New Cod quality is priceless.

Casual and good prices with very good portions and friendly staff

Lovely food always best chip shop in this area. Fish excellent! 100 recommended

Been here 3-4 times this year and never been more satisfied, freshly cooked fish and chips every time. One of the best I’ve tasted in a long time around Leigh on sea. Thanks for keeping your shop so clean and very cost effective. Even open 7 days a week. If you’ve never tried this Plaice (🤗) you won’t be disappointed. Thanks Graham

huge portions, beautiful food. so happy as love the name of this place

Really good fish and chip shop with an excellent menu. I would always recommend the scampi!

the service was amazing and the food was lovely

Lovely place, food is delicious! The batter is light and crispy, would highly recommend. Atmosphere was delightful ☺️

Food is ok. Whenever we go in there nothing is ever ready end up waiting for ages for either the sausages to be cold or chips average.

Don’t usually like fish and chips but the cod here was delicious!! Im definitely hooked, the batter was perfect and the portion sizes we good value for money. Would definitely recommend!

Ordered a cod special and the fish was succulent and delicious. Good portion of chips too. Friendly staff.

Just picked up some fish and chips . It was absolutely delicious. Perfectly cooked . Was my first time here and i would definitely come back

10/10 Cod and Chips, best one in the area, such friendly staff, would definitely come again, perfect crisp on the cod and amazing balance between crispy and fluffy on the chips, amazing! 🍟🐠

Great food excellent delivery! Thank you.

Not sure how late it was as delivery time altered but it’s Saturday night so it can be busy. The food was piping hot and was lovely

This is definitely one of the best fish and chips I have ever had. The batter was so thin and crispy and cooked to perfection. The service was really great. Though I went on the weekend and the shop was really busy, the service was quick. They double checked the orders and packed along with the condiments. Overall great experience. Will definitely visit again.

Excellent fish and chips- can't be beaten locally

All great especially love the chips here

the cod was really nice but chips tasted old and re heated so threw them in the bin

Overcooked fish...could onlybeat half of my rock,very disappointing

This looks like a standard Fish and Chippy on a suburban road, however it exceeds appearances. Service was great with accurate advice on the portion size and customer requirements. I went for the Small Cod and chips which was great value,taste, quality fish and a full portion. The batter was crispy,oil was fresh,dry and light . The staff were young but very knowledgeable and cooked the takeaway perfectly. You won't be disappointed here.

This amazing fish and chip shop on Eastwood road is the best!! The crispy batter on the fish is always perfect, and the chips are so tasty and fluffy. Plus, the portions are generous, and the staff is super friendly. It's definitely a 5-star spot for a classic fish and chips experience!

the best fish and chips shop i ever been to, miles better than seaside. great service and the staff are amazing and friendly. chips are great and the fish was fresh!

Chicken wings are top level Crispy chips A nice piece of haddock with tartare sauce Good parking space Friendly staffs

Very friendly atmosphere and staff, with freshly-made delicious food that are great portion-sizes. It’s easy to get to and parking just outside the shop, plus ordering online from Uber Eats or Just Eat is easy. Their open on a Sunday, which is convenient because not a lot of shops are!

Wonderful food good service reasonable price

food missing and didn't even call to arrange an alternative

Chicken nuggets was lovely, great service

I’m my order was a kids meal, no capri sun, and literally only about 10 chips .

Gone down hill drastically. The fish was chewy, chips were dry and hard. Curry sauce seemed like a packet mix. Won’t be returning again

Great fresh fish with crispy fries. There is a lovely always smiling service. Food is always on time.

Scampi was hot and well cooked but chips were just warm and not very good. Also surprised at the extra cost from last time.

Great customer service and delicious food.

Food very good , prices fantastic, service and staff always happy and helpful, best fish and chip shop around alway use myself and order on app food always ready thankyou

very chatty,lovely place and people

Lovely food and friendly staff..will come again

The staff were very kind and they were speaking to us while we waited for the food. (Which I found very nice of them). I totally recommend it.👌👌

Chicken was overcooked, ended up throwing it away.

Wonderful fish and chips will definitely come again 100 recommended

Love the food here. I drive out of my way just to get it. Chips are especially nice, portions are very generous and the people who work there are very nice and friendly

Very good enjoyed the chips the fish tasted nice and fresh 10/10

Some of the best cod i ever had 10 out of 10

Ask for a spring roll and got a box full of mini ones. Lovely chips but pie was overcooked and inedible x

Best chip shop in around . Lovely chef he knows what he is doing..100 recommended Skate fish and rock top level.. will be visiting again and again.. alsmost tried every week never disappointed.. lovely staffs

Requested delivery time, which was confirmed by restaurant only for them to add up to 30mins.. Actually arrived 20mins later than I requested. Pleasant delivery driver, food good nice and hot.

Special menu cod and chips 6 pounds top food

Best fish and chips in Rayleigh Fish and chips were lovely Scampi was top notch Roasted chicken cooked perfectly

Very disappointing meal, the chicken and mushroom pie needed a hammer and chisel to open and looked like it was cooked a week ago. Very reluctant to return again.

Wonderful fish and chips Delicious Big portions Excellent customer service 10 out of 10

This is the best fish & chips ever. The fish was unbelievable, it was massive & was delicious in taste. The chips taste so good. Excellent food, portion size & service.

A little cold on delivery,quality good

New Cod on the Block is amazing. Such great portions, in fact the fish was brilliant, thick, fresh, hot and tasty. Loads of chips and not even a large portion ! Will recommend to many people. Thank you New Cod on the Block.

Beautiful fish and chips, hot, tasty and a large portion. Will order from New Cod on the Block again.

Will certainly order again. Food good and hot, delivery exactly as advised and request for tartare sauce added with no extra charge.

The food was top notch,first time from you,happily surprised with everything,thanks

Poor quality fish, looks refried, happy to share picture

Fish was dry overcooked and cold and the chips were chewy when it arrived with us. Shame as we normally enjoy the food from here.

chips were dried out , order took 2.5 hours to arrive scampi was not hot. Cod batter was not good. Very disappointed .

Amazing little place. Compact, but overflowing with goodness. The cod and chips were out of this world! Crispy batter and cooked to perfection - Flakey and light inside. SOOOOO GOOD! Service was so quick, even though the fish was cooked on-the-spot while we waited. The chips were HUGE - steak fry size - crisp on the outside, fluffy and yummy inside. Charlotte was sweet and very personable. Served us with a huge smile. We couldn't have been more impressed and pleased. We'd just bought a new car. We were 90 minutes from home, and hungry, so we decided to "christen" it with our first meal eaten, sat in the new car. We stayed on the premises and ate our meal in the car park. There is seating for while you wait for your order, but no tables or places to eat inside the restaurant. We HIGHLY recommend New Cod on the Block, Leigh on Sea! 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐s!!

The fish had yellow in it and was very greasy

So disappointed especially after reading good review. Chips tasted and looked really old, not fresh at all and most of the portion had bad ones. Looked like old potatoes were used.

Not over-enamoured. I have shown that the delivery was on time but it was well beyond the original time quoted. Not sure that I will use this company again

As per usual there are not enough Just Eat Drivers. Food was luke warm and overcooked by the time it finally arrived so couldn’t eat much of it. Very disappointing food and delivery, a waste of money tonight.

Delicious bit of rock and some chips - lovely

Over two hours late very greasy would never order from again would not recommend

First time ordering but was disappointed. I ordered about 11.30 ish and thought we would get freshly cooked. Generous portion of chips but they werent very nice or fresh. Only the fattest chips were edible the rest were hard. Chicken was dry and overdone but the skin was very crispy and nice but the chicken dry, the chicken leg was very over cooked.

Good portions nice tasting food

Ordered large chips , 10 nuggets,chicken burger,2 Savoloy s and chicken nuggets kids meal and instead of the kids meal they put 5 extra nuggets a in , no kids chips or drink .

Order on a Tuesday night, waited over and hour and 15mins and they then gave me someone else's order, absolutely useless, will never use again

Food was nice enough but came an hour late.

Would not order from here again changed delivery time 3 times when I finally got my order chips missing not really a meal sausage in batter and chicken and mushroom pie without the chips

Placed my order at 5pm and by 6pm my order still wasn’t here so I phoned the restaurant for an update. They told me a driver would be there at 6.10 and then onto us. I waited till 6.30pm and tried to ring the restaurant to have an update and couldn’t get through I placed 35 calls to the restaurant and non of them managed to get through so I went down to the restaurant. I explained that I had been waiting nearly 2 hours for our food and had no update from them or just eat to where our food was. W

Big portions, lovely food and friendly staff. Will definitely be going back

Never received an order but paid not happy xx

Quality of fish is always good. Stored in cardboard boxes so means fish and chips are not soggy.
