Ocean Basket Bromley in Bromley

The food and service were very good. I went with my parents and I had fried calamari with chips. They had a tray with calamari, chips, fish and prawns and they also liked it.

I was expecting a standard fish and chip restaurant but was pleasantly surprised to see an extensive menu to suit every taste. There was the usual battered fish and chips but also platters where you could choose how every item was cooked, not just deep fried. Prawns were great and hake well cooked. The service was friendly and efficient given such a large party and varying ages and tastes. I was impressed and will return .

Gorgeous prawns and fish great special offers - service was average tho Dee -didnt get salad had to chase for bill and dessert menu

The service was friendly, the atmosphere was pleasant and welcoming, and the food was good quality and cooked well. We shared a seafood platter and some soft shell crabs, and ate everything - we’ll be back next time we’re in the area.

Amazing and friendly staff, beautiful decor and spectacular food all at reasonable prices. Will be back here again to sample other dishes. Book a table in advance as the restaurant is unsurprisingly a popular choice for all.

Dee was an amazing server. Seriously not a single complaint. Food was prompt and hot and the entirety of the staff was so welcoming, warm and polite. Will definitely be returning when I can.

Food was great however a little over priced. Ordered a platter for 2 and this cost over £50. The calamari is great and recommended for anyone to eat!

A cafe ambiance & service at restaurant prices. If you like cafe style fried seafood and want to pay a high price. Then maybe you'll enjoy it. Oyster prices more expensive than London and some opened poorly breaking the oyster, shouldn't have been served like that. They specialise in fried or grilled seafood, but my grilled haddock was overcooked. Served with fries and no good options for vegetables. If you like spinach, great, but that's it. Although the service staff were very pleasant, they were a little unprofessional. Will never return.

Went oven basket for 1st time our west anniversary and myself and wife loved it great service and food be back as no problem

We love this place. Today we came to celebrate a birthday and everything was great including Laura that was amazing and looked after us and brought a cake to celebrate the special moment. Thanks.. 😊 I definitely recommend ocean basket

This is the worst fish and chips we have EVER tasted. Frozen thin fillets of cod obviously frozen already coated with ready made batter and thrown into a frier with old bitter oil! To charge £19 per portion for this is obscene. The carafe of wine was as small as a small wine glass, the rosé was cheap and the cost was £9 . This was our first and definitely our last visit. I don’t understand the positive comments, other than a thirst for mediocrity seems to be vogue throughout the Country at this time.

We came here for an early dinner on a Friday. Very laid back relaxed atmosphere. The staff were very friendly. We were served by Dee, who really looked after us. The food was great and the service was lovely. It became busy very quickly and I'm not surprised why! Would recommend people to try this place.

Music was a bit loud for older ears but the food was very nice and the staff were really delightful. Will be back really soon.

Food is tasty, portions are big, stuff is friendly and helpful, environment is amazing. It's a great place for small or big groups

We often go to this restaurant, staff food and service is normally very good. On our last meeting the service was terrible. We clear our table of our plates, go to the counter to order coffee, we tried to get there attention to pay the bill. Their was three members of staff one was the manager all standing in a group talking. When the bill come the fact service charge is above 12 % we complained of the service received and was told in a sarcastic tone you don't have to pay it. No way to encourage people back.

Birthday Treat for my Foodie Son, who absolutely loved it….food cooked to perfection with wine to match, perfectly presented, great atmosphere, great service, staff etc

Loved our trip here for a Friday date night, the platter was incredible, great variety of fish and the garlic dip was insane...the partner loved her salmon too. Brilliant service throughout, the bill was really reasonable too, would recommend

We visited Ocean Basket for Mother's day. The restaurant is set over two levels, our table was situated on the 2nd floor. We ordered the platter for two which was superb. All the fish and seafood was cooked to perfection and it was super fresh. The waitress was simply charming who had a smile on her face throughout the service. We loved this place and will be defiantly be back.

Amazing food, great service. Drive an hour to visit for the second time in Mothers Day and certainly worth the journey. Would highly recommend.

Poorly run and average at best. Unfortunately the Ocean Basket is not what it was when it opened. We've been waiting for 45 mins for our food, been offered drinks once and told that they have run out of rice. It's a far cry from the restaurants in SA and more like a normal fish and chippy but overpriced. This is the 3rd time it's been like this so we won't be coming back.

Food was inedible. King prawns overcooked and rubbery, mussels also overcooked, dry and hard and served up in cold frying pans. Cod fillet small for the £12.50 cost. A dollop of soggy veg served as a side dish for £3.50 was criminal. Service was clumsy and disorganised. Overpriced for poor quality and poorly cooked food.

We had never heard of ocean basket before, but the menu looked interesting, so we popped in for dinner. We were so well looked after, the food was excellent, so fresh tasting, and tender. We had the sharing platter with a side of spinach. There are so many different things to try. We look forward to visiting again.

Ordered the platter. Lots of food which is very tasty. Nice experience. It does get very busy so need to book. Nice atmosphere.

Been here a few times and always good food and great service but I notice this time that bread rolls that are served when you are sifted are small (fair enough as times are hard) but dips anymore (what a pity). Had the patter for one and I see that now is there in sauce served it it(again what a pity as I am sure this can’t cost you much to do). Would go back but not as often as I did.

Me and my partner went to Ocean Basket in Bromley last night and I would definitely say it is one of our favourite restaurants now. The staff are so welcoming and friendly with a smile on their faces, the service they provide is amazing to all customers. We ordered the seafood platter for 2 and the amount of food we got was so good and was cooked perfectly! Would highly recommend going there.

Had a great meal, food was good tasty, lots of flavour, good wine, friendly staff. We were spoilt and well looked after. Had a great chat with Jan and the very tall guy (sorry can't recall your name ) awesome evening left satisfied and a...

This place is perfect if you are looking to have a nice meal in a friendly atmosphere and a nice catch up with someone. The service was impecable and the good tasted so fresh. I have tried Ocean Basket in other countries and i must...

Not proper Chip shop chips. Fish not cooked fresh. And cost a ransom!! Don’t be filled by the look of the restaurant

We absolutely love our local Ocean Basket. We visit frequently because we are always very well looked after. The food is always delicious and the staff always go the extra mile to make us feel welcome.

I just wanted to say I was so impressed, the staff were so friendly, and the manager Jan really knew how to run a restaurant and really made us felt welcome. The food was out of this world and we most definitely will be going...

I visit this restaurant when I am in the area as it is always very pleasant with great food that has flavour. The staff are so kind and give excellent attentive service, making it an enjoyable experience.

Delicious seafood and a lovely restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff with quality service every time.

What a fabulous experience, just like the one we loved in Cape Town! We went to the Bromley restaurant last Sunday with our family. We were earlier than our booked time but were warmly welcomed in. We were served by Joshua & he did a...

Jon the waiter was amazing very friendly and ensure I was taken care of as I dined by myself. Was a hot day and he gave me a glass of water as I arrived , kept saying if I was ok , as I was...

Had dreadful food, we did not eat after and you know when your gut is saying this is not great, Sea Bream was like jelly so watery it was not a fresh ! over priced and we paid for it Terrible !

A warm welcome from the Bromley team, thank you. Joshua was our waiter and was bubbly, warm and friendly. We enjoyed the delicious seafood 🦞 which has been excellent each time we have visited. Very accommodating and friendly completely would highly recommend.

Since the restaurant opened, we have visited at least 5 times, and every time we visit we order the seafood platter for 2. My wife and son love this place as much as I do. Every time we have been, the seafood has been fantastic....

We love coming here … the food is simple and delicious every time. Aidan the manager is delightful and charming … a real asset to this lovely place. Couldn’t recommend it more

Delicious food and really good service. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Made my dad’s 70th birthday very special. It’s our favourite family restaurant and worth travelling 50 mins for!

We have been twice - once upstairs and once down (incidentally, I'm very sceptical about the seemingly orchestrated reviews saying upstairs is for black customers, but that's none of my business) I think the website slightly overstates the quality of the food, as I've had...

Seafood like you’ve never had before. Unbelievable taste and incredible service. Very attentive staff and a great atmosphere. If you’re in the area then give this a go as you will not regret it. They even serve food in pans!!

Very disappointed with this place. I had been to ocean basket in south african countless times but not once did I get such bad service. What really stood out for me was the segregation of people sitting upstairs and downstairs. It was so clear this...

Only reason I went there was cause it’s a South African brand but I forgot about the racism that comes with SA especially in this day and age. Black people were made to sit upstairs and whites were made to sit downstairs. They’re bringing apartheid...

I booked a table and when we walked in there were a number of free tables on the main floor however, we were greeted by a gentleman Aden (Caucasian) who proceeded to ask a black waiter to see if there were free tables upstairs despite...

#amazingfood #FIRSTCRUSH AmaIng atmosphere. Feels like I'm back home in Cape Town with friends. Home away from Home.

Second visit. Really disappointing. Food was not hot enough and spent quite a lot and not value for money at all. Prawns were dry and the whitebait wasn't nice either. Staff pleasant enough let down by the standard and quality this time

A very enjoyable dining experience at this seafood-based restaurant, located in Bromley’s Market Square. Pleasantly surprised at the reasonable prices for the menu options & good-sized/large portions too – especially the fish & chips option that I had for my main meal, following a starter...

Went there with a friend for lunch on bank holiday Monday and was lovely. Food was really yummy, staff were friendly and service was good also reasonably priced. Had a bit of a greek look to it. Would definitely go back.

Checked out new restaurant where Cafe Rouge used to be (now gone bust). A varied seafood menu for a change! They give free bread basket upon arrival. Plenty of staff/waiters. Good service and don't even charge for the service on the bill. Can't wait to...

After reading some of the not too complimentary reviews here, I was somewhat reluctant to go to Ocean Basket, but as it was for my mother's birthday celebration and she really wanted to go as she had gone to several Ocean Basket branches in Cyprus,...

Having visited the Cyprus branch I was sceptical about visiting Bromley as I have read some of the reviews. We had the sharing platter which was cooked perfectly. The complimentary bread and condiments was a nice touch. The staff were friendly, attentive and accommodating, will...

We were so excited that Ocean Basket had arrived in the UK and in our local town, so we booked for Sunday Lunch. The shared seafood platter was fabulous. But our starters took ages, the hot food arrived 15 minutes before the Tzatziki which we...
