Nick's Plaice in Northampton

Just stumbled on this fish and chips shop and what a find!! I have to say I have lived in Northampton for 7 years now and this fish and chips was by a country mile the best I have ever tasted. I would even go as far to say it’s on a par with Harry Ramadens Bournemouth!! If you get chance pop in to Nick’s Plaice and try it for yourself you won’t be disappointed!!! It’s not 5* it’s 6*

The fish was oily and I felt unwell after eating. I asked for the fries to be double fried, there was no intention to be done as per my request. The fish was small and the crust was far bigger to look like a large portion. Next day, red patches appeared on my body, probably my body reaction after eating this oily fish. I will never go back there. Not recommended Ah, and the lady cooking, was also taking the money and scratching her ear in front of me. I regret I didn’t walk out on that moment

Best fish and chips and lovely staff.

Lovely fish, chips and curry sauce

Westonia Court enjoyed an evening with 40+ residents. Food was beautifully presented and delivered on time.

Popped into Nick's Plaice for a fish and chip meal deal this afternoon. It was delicious - the fish was freshly cooked and you can choose small or large we also had tartare sauce and mushy peas. Will visit again when I'm in the area.

Welcoming friendly staff. Great portions and NHS DISCOUNT!!

Absolutely beautiful food well recommended. Staff was so friendly and chatty with customers

Nicest fish and chips in Northampton! Great, friendly staff and most food cooked to order.

Best fish & chips, lovely very hot food, the fish was fresh and flaky and the chips were the best. Will definitely be getting our fish and chips here In future.

Best Fish and Chips in Northampton

Fish and chips are excellent great quality

Excellent value with a friendly team who prepare the best Fish and Chips in Northampton! I always use Nicks when I want fish and chips!

Great service,lovely fish,cooked to order.By far best fish and chips in Northampton.

Fantastic chips, friendly service, freshly cooked food.

I’ve been to Nicks Plaice twice now. I wasn’t just lucky the first time. It was 10/10 both times. Best chips I’ve tasted in years. And the best chip shop curry sauce I’ve ever tasted . I went at lunchtime on both occasions and bought a child’s sausage, chips & curry sauce meal. First visit I had beans which were fresh and & cooked nicely.It comes with a cold mini fruit shoot& lolly in a McDonalds style box. Sausage was larger & tastier than your average chippy all this for £3.80. With free ketchup. I felt guilty paying that for it I enjoyed it so much. Will be back to get more for the family as well as my top notch bargain lunch deals.

Delicious, excellent service to enjoy real quality fish and chips, accompanied by smiles and politeness. An address to highly recommend.

Called in tonight close to closing time but nothing was too much trouble. My order was freshly cooked and beautifully presented with tartare and a slice of lemon. The food quality is outstanding and delicious too. Would highly recommend.

First time of visiting this chippy today. Best fish and chips I've tasted in Northampton. Delicious food, very friendly staff. Thank you.

I've been coming here for about 2 years now, the chips and all the sauces are great! I really recommend the sausages. The staff are very friendly and the whole place has a nice retro look to it. Definitely one of my favourites

Just had the worst fish and chips ever.was told Ian was cooking,so chanced it.batter was soggy,chips was soggy,roe was chewy.most of it went in the bin.standards have dropped!

Wow .. service with a smile and fantastic food too. Superb curry sauce fresh tartae sauce and prices are spot on.... Awesome

Absolutely fabulous chippy, great food, great service

Staff in here are always friendly, and the food is great. The chips are cooked to perfection. Only thing i would change is to have batter on the sausages just l little bit crispier! The chicken kebab is tasty, and the Fish is always bang on.

The chips were fine , but the fish was very poor, you could have slid it under the door. The mushy peas had a bit of a twang to them.

Went today to get some dinner for my children, the owner Nick was serving and also preparing food. Numerous times whilst I was waiting for my order I witnessed Nick, sticking the end of his thumb into his teeth, then carried on touching food. I called him out on this and told him to wash his hands, he's reason was 'he had a bad tooth' sorry but you are working in a food establishment, preparing fresh food and spreading bacteria from your tooth on every utensil, surface and food product you are touching. 🤮🤢 As the owner his food hygiene and basic hygiene such as washing hands should always be top priority, will not ever be stepping foot in their again after today. The lady working didn't seem surprised either when I informed her, which shows how poor their standards are, even with newspaper articles plastered on the wall stating they are award winning, I would not recommend eating here at all.

Best Fish and chips in town without a doubt. I. Would use them more often if parking was easier. Expensive but worth it. Lunch time specials available at good prices.

Best Chip Shop in Northampton. My go to place.

Nick kindly provided us with Fish and Chips for our Christmas party. Gave us a good deal on the price. The portion sizes left some of us defeated.

Spot on place to grab Sausage and Chips when busy.

Lovely food, at very decent prices. This is a reasonably priced with reasonable quality fish. Nick's Plaice is of a high standard all around. Keir berry clean and tidy and had been kept running by the lively members of staff....

Really love the vibe and atmosphere of this chip shop, definitely try the steak and kidney pie. All the food we ordered was great.

My favourite chippy in Northampton. Love going there, especially on Fridays, for my Chippy Tea.

Best fish and chips together with warm friendly service 👏👏👏👏

Nicks plaice is honestly the best fish and chips in northampton!!! Not only is the food amazing -Crispy thin batter and crispy yet fluffy chips - but service was brilliant Nick is so so lovely and while we waited showed us how delicious chips and lemon are together and pineapple fritters dipped in sugar. Will 100% be the chippy I recommend and will continue to go to :)

By far the best in Northampton’the curry sauce is the best

Still the best chip shop around by far.

Cod and chips, mushy peas with home-made Tartar sauce. Best I've had in years. Super friendly staff. Will be back.

Nice to have a proper chip shop. No kebabs, just pies, sausages, fish, chips, mushy peas and a really nice chip shop curry sauce.

If you local and plan to go seaside for fish and chips - don't bother. Save yourself travel cost and overpriced fish and visit Nick's Plaice instead. You get the top notch food and friendly service. If it is lunch time and you get special it will be also lighter on your pocket.

Why when you trust these people do they take the p….s and make idiots out of their faithful customers. If I ask for large fish why sneak in a small one. I’ll stick to Birchfield chippy. From now on. That’s what you call large.!!!!!!! Not plugging just comparing.

Best fish and chips in Northampton. Light crispy batter, lovely fresh fish. Won’t go anywhere else. Just wish they didn’t put each piece of fish in a separate box, not very environmental.

Best in town for fish and chips! Definitely will be buying again!

Food is lovely, staff are welcoming and friendly

Best chippy in Northamptonshire

The worst, soggiest batter very pale as though only just cooked, no real crisp to the batter! The chips are not proper fish and chip shop chips!!! Not fresh they taste rewarmed! The staff were not very friendly but they was smiley etc if you was male.

Went in tonight for chippy tea ordered large fish and chips mushy peas the chips were ok peas very good but fish utter disappointment hardly any fish seemed too be more batter than fish expect decent fish when you’re paying over 6pounds

Had a delicious Chips and Steak and Kidney Pie - Chips where cooked just right and the Pie was toasty hot. Highly recommended.

Chips and Steak and Kidney Pie just a like a momma used to make.

I had the most incredible spam fritter I have ever eaten. Highly recommend this plaice.

20 lunch specials, all served with a smile & delicious 😋 thanks very much from team GE

Opening times 16:30 it’s 16:30 NOT 16:50

I am regular customer popping in there every couple weeks. for a fish and chips for my whole family. Nick"s Place definitely the best place for fish and chips in the town

Best chips in Northampton! Just got Good Friday dinner! Omg absolutely AMAZING! Clean plates all round! Now I live nearer I'm always in here! Chips are the best!

I've just finished eatin now... that was the best Fish and Chips in Northampton.

First time here to get a takeaway lunch. As always, great fish and chips but the price probably makes them the cheapest for lunch as well as the best quality, and the friendly, helpful, professional staff add to the whole experience. Cheaper than KFC or McDonald's and no hidden weird stuff. Highly recommended and no, sadly, I wasn't paid to write this.

Best fish and chips in Northampton

All round best chippy in Northampton! Amazing food, friendly staff and brilliant curry sauce 😋

Best chippy in Northampton. Great food, great service. Highly recommend the curry sauce!

Queued up today and saw that the vinegar on the counter was in an ex spray bottle hand sanitiser complete with label. Yuck. Avoid.

Banging food and excellent customer services.

Jodie is the best worker there very kind and patient!

Northampton born and bred! Live coming home so I can eat the most amazing roe! Mum loves their fish too!! All round awesome chippy!❤

Best chips I’ve ever eaten!!!! Such friendly customer service!!! Amazing value! Most PHENOMENAL curry sauce I’ve had, homemade too!!

The best fish and chips in town , and the place looks clean , i would recommend it 😇

Great food and super friendly staff 😀

Undeterred by a couple of recent bad reviews, I visited this place last week at around 5.30pm, as I was staying locally with a friend. Ordered a small cod and small chips and have to say that it was the most fresh and best tasting piece of fish I'd had in 5 years. It was cooked to order and the chips were more than acceptable. Despite the "small" portions, they were still of such a size that my friend happily consumed a third of it.

These really are the best fish and chips in Northampton! Friendly staff as well. The portions are large, I couldn't finish the chips. Just found my go to plaice for fish & chips 😜

The chips were absolutely amazing. Definitely would recommend and lovely service.

The is the best fish and chips shop out there. The service is always great and the staff are friendly.

I can't give a review of the food because it was closed. Sunday is shown as open until 21.00. It was closed at 19.00. Very bad they can't keep their opening hours correct so their food might be as poor.

Best Fish & Chips in town staff are great too .

Excellent cod and chips with homemade tartare sauce

Absolutely cracking fish and chip’s.Cannot fault it.Highly recommend

Chips cooked in with fish and meat so contaminated with animal fat. No vegan options as listed either. Shame as Northampton needs somewhere like veggie corner in Coventry or Milton chippy in Stoke , both have amazing vegan options and vegan food cooked in separate fryers.

Was near by so thought we would try here, amazing fish and chips! The curry sauce was one of the best I’ve ever tried! The fish was very fresh and crispy. Fresh Lemon and tartar sauce available too. One of the best chip shop meals I’ve ever had thank you ☺️

i Always get a friendly & professional experience when i visit Nick's Plaice, the staff have more than idea of what Customer Service entails.

Lovely fish and chips family always look to fish chip Friday treat

The chips don't taste nice at all, good thing about the fish,its been cooked while we waited, only time it tastes really good is when Nicks dad has done the frying....can taste the difference,really nice. Nice staff

I recently had the pleasure of trying the fish and chips from Nick’s Place in Northampton, and I have to say that it was one of the best I have ever had. The crispy batter was perfectly cooked, and the fish inside was moist and flavorful. The chips were also exceptional, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, just the way they should be. If you're ever in Northampton and craving some delicious fish and chips, I highly recommend Nick's Place. You won't be disappointed!

What an amazing PLAICE it was 😂 lovely welcoming tasty food, could smell the freshness of food as well as the hygiene in both the cooking and seating area. Very welcoming staff, warm and very friendly An utter asset to the business I say, good staff bring in more business always. Keep up the good work everyone and Nick our applauses go to the headman for great leadership. Cleanest take away restaurant we have seen in this area that we’ve just moved to, therefore our fish and chips nights are all sorted👏👏

Missed some of the order, I wished I read the reviews before trying, staff were lovely such a shame that the food didn't match expectations

The best fresh fish and chips in Northampton. The only place I come to and leave satisfied. Friendly staff, clean environment and tasty food equals fabulous.

I have been searching for a long time and at last I’ve found the perfect fish and chip shop. The staff were friendly and the prices were very reasonable. I would recommend them to everyone.

Amazing food, excellent service from Hollie and Nick will be returning every day! Fish is amazing, homemade tartar sauce top tier

Nick’s food was just fantastic. He was very polite when I came into the shop, and Hollie catered to us with a smile. Fantastic people, fantastic food, couldn’t recommend them more!

Best chips in the world always very quick service. Lunchtime special still a bargain at £4.75 🐰

Been here a few times now. Overly Greasy in my opinion. Gravy is cheap granules with no taste and like wallpaper paste. Sorry guys but feel you can improve as there is better places to eat.

Great fish & chips! Great staff! A great place! Really enjoyed the food, everything was fresh, cooked well and very tasty. Fish & chips done properly and we’re looking forward to our next visit. Thanks to the team at Nick’s Plaice. Would recommend

Always make a visit to this local fish 🐟 and chip 🍟 shop. Food is always 👌 spot on 😋. Highly recommend this place 👌.
