Another first class takeaway from the team at Nindy’s. It was a big order for a family party, but it was to the usual high standard, and prepared very efficiently. The cod is always of an excellent quality. Thankyou!

There is a review on here that says the staff are miserable, I totally disagree.. They always seem upbeat & happy. I'm personally always met with a hello & a smile & on occasion a chat if there aren't to busy, I generally order half a baguette with cheese & either tomato or tuna mayo & a salad box for when I get home.. OMG there food is Awesome & such good value, tbh all other sandwiches pale into insignificance.. Very friendly professional & happy staff, the best sandwiches & salad boxes for miles if not in Essex.. Very Highly Recommended.. I go there everyday 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

I rarely eat fish abundant chips but, decided to treat myself: a great treat it was too. The haddock was fresh and sweet. The batter, light, golden and crispy. The chips could have been a bit crispier but they were, like the fish, delicious. I asked for a small portion but there was still enough for 2. I’ll be going back soon.

this was the secound time in colchester in as many mouths my advice is dont waste time trawling around colchester town in search of an elussive fish and chip shop because there are none just type in nindys into waze and it will take you there in about 10 mins with clear roads i want to keep this simple this is real fish and chips the cod is wonderful the chips are perfect thank you nindys for all the love you put into traditional fish and chips .

We have just enjoyed two lovely portions of takeaway haddock and chips. Light crispy batter over fresh well cooked fish with nice fluffy chips and no scrappy bits. That's why this is such a great British favourite. Well done Nindy's!

Nindys is by far the best chippy in Colchester. Service is second to none and great people too! Can’t recommend highly enough.

Recently tried as individual and then last night had a business event with 26 portions of fish n chips and 13 sausage n chips. They could not have been better, everything organised superbly, food hot and service superb. Everyone commented on how good food was. Thanks absolutely brilliant and will use again

I have been using this chip shop since it opened many years ago. Never had a bad portion of fish and chips. Also have a very good sandwich bar where they prepare lovely fresh sanwiches of your choice in front of you. Proof of their popularity is that they are always busy, especially Friday nights. Great portion sizes and good value for money..

Overpriced fish & chips. Used to be good, but the quality has declined noticeably in recent years. The poor fish does not justify the high price. Not visiting again!

This is my second review of this fish and chip shop. I still cannot fault the service and the quality of the food. I have tried all different things from the fish to a burger and, every time, it is always cooked to perfection.All staff are well trained and very polite.Look forward to the next visit.Please go, you will not be disappointed.

Just had a meal from here and I must say that it was awful. The chips tasted of burnt oil. The battered burger wasn't battered by the time it reached my plate, all the batter had fell off inside the paper wrapping.

Visit here often as I work fairly close, so do a chip-run for colleagues! The food is always really nice. Fresh, hot chips and fish, and often have a filled roll, which again is freshly made whilst you wait... very good. My only niggle is the staff are always so miserable - I don't think I have ever seen one of them smile - you are never greeted with a hello, and rarely get a goodbye... its a real shame as manners cost nothing..

I am very impressed with this Fish and Chip take away. If you have a special diet as they will go out of their way to help you. Very friendly and helpful staff. I do find that they run out of certain items too quickly but I presume it is because of their excellent quality food.

Nindy's offers a fantastic choice of sandwiches, baguettes and subs. Also boxed salads, jacket potatoes and other delights. All of the fillings are freshly prepared by the super team. The Fish & Chip side to the business is personally the best I've had outside of Aldeburgh!!!' Outstandingly crisp batter combined with the freshest of fish.

I have been a regular customer at Nindys ever since it opened and before that at the fathers fish and chip restaurant in Braintree,which was even better. Nindys is still the best fish and ship shop in Colchester (even beats Henleys in Wivenhoe) - but the quality of the chips is on the slide. Not being peeled properly. Fish excellent as always. Good service. Parking can be a problem. Nindys is not a restaurant.

When finding a good fish and chippy for your family, you go through a couple around the local area, but Nindy's is the best. Even though it's a 3 mile drive, it really is good. You won't ever be disappointed, call and order before you collect it.

Hadn't used this chip shop before as I live the other side of town but as I was in the vicinity decided to give it a try.Had to wait a short while because they were frying the fish to order (much better than being given a piece of dried up cod that had been 'resting' for an hour!), received an unnecessary apology for the wait, and took home my order.I'd ordered standard cod and chips thrice and it cost just £16.35 the lot. On turning onto plate I was amazed at the huge portion sizes - my 13 year-old, famed for his hollow legs, had to leave some and I struggled somewhat.If I had a complaint it was that the portions are too large! Some complaint, eh!

Managed to snag an outside table with a view of the castle. The chai latte had real depth of flavour and the cappuccino was good. My felafel salad was very good and the felafel were moist instead of dry like in most places. My partners chicken and bacon sandwich was generously filled and all at a very reasonable price. We’d deff go back here when next in Colchester.

Popped in after a visit to the dentists, hoping to grab some breakfast, but I was too late as it was 12pm. However, the lovely staff member did me a strong black coffee (very tasty, strong without being too bitter), offered me some toast and tried to cater to my gluten free diet, and later on returned with a packet of GF crisps as they had finished breakfast time. Very thoughtful service, and the sofas at the front of the shop are extremely comfortable, I did not want to leave.
