Excellent. Food cooked fresh so really nice and hot right to the end of my meal. I had cod and chips. Son had saveloy and chips. No complaints. Chips were crispy and the batter on the cod was also crispy. Staff were lovely. Will make sure this will be the place to visit whenever in Hastings.

Every time we are in Hastings we always go to the old town fryer. The food is always hot and delicious. The service are friendly and always happy to help. It's a great atmosphere to bring kids too with the upstairs seating area having great views!

The menu is a delightful mix of classic and contemporary dishes, all made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The staff truly made the experience unforgettable. They were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering excellent recommendations. The service was prompt, and I felt like a valued guest throughout my meal.

Worst fish & chips in my life. No idea what the fish was & the oil tastes rancid. Fish inedible, chips the same due to the taste. Unsure what fish is being served up. £15 in the bin! A fish& chip shop has one job & they couldn’t even do that

I came for a daily visit to Hastings and I was looking for having fish and chips as usual since it's my priority every time I come to Hastings. And I finally found the best in town, which is Old Town Fryer fish&chip shop. Everything's cooked to order and so fresh. I highly recommend to visit Old Town Fryer if you ever come down to Hastings and fancy some fish&chips.

A day out with my 82 year old wheelchair bound mother , my sister & my niece & nephew . The staff were lovely & allowed my mum to order a childs meal as she has a small appetite . Every dish was perfectly cooked , the prices are very good and there is definately something for everyone on the menu . When we left the restaurant my sister had left her purse on the table ! The young man who had looked after us came running to find us & return my sister`s purse , best chip shop by a mile ... Thank you for a wonderful lunch !

we had 2x cod and chips with mushy peas £27.00 for a take away very expensive. chips good one fish was obviously not fresh more like frozen as it was cut with straight edges as you would buy at a supermarket. the other not sure it was cod not fluffy or light flesh was not good poor taste. peas were very bland. why cannot shops on the seaside sell decent fish caught that day?

Usually the best fish and chip shop in Hastings, with great quality food and very good portion sizes, but unfortunately the portion size of chips appeared to have shrunk considerably today and was not adequate for the price. Hopeful that this was just a one off 🤞

I have had the opportunity to try the famous fish and chips from this local restaurant, and I must say that the reputation they have is well deserved. The plate was huge and the fish was perfectly fried, with a crispy coating on the outside and tender meat on the inside. Additionally, the price was very reasonable considering the portion size, making it an attractive option for those looking for a filling meal without spending too much. However, I must mention that the customer service left a little to be desired. Despite asking for more lemon to accompany our fish, they only brought us a small additional wedge, which was not enough to satisfy our needs. In fact, they didn't even give us half of a whole lemon, which was a bit disappointing. Despite this inconvenience, we really enjoyed the food overall. The fish was delicious and the portion was generous, which somewhat made up for the lack of customer service. In short, if you are looking for a good fish and chips at a reasonable price, this place definitely delivers, just make sure you order enough lemon beforehand.

Excellent fish and chips and generous portions, at a good price. We had large rock and chips and large haddock and chips. Both very filling and nicely cooked fresh. Good crispy batter. Comparatively the mushy peas seem a little expensive. We had an early lunch when it was quiet. Unfortunately the very old awards on the wall may be a bit of a put off for some.

You are spoilt for choice for fish and chip restaurants in the Hastings Old Town. We went for this one because it had a decent sized inside space. We went for the Haddock and the Plaice, and they were both substantial and very good. And with good friendly service levels from the team working the restaurant section we had no complaints with this one.

Came back to England to visit my family with my American wife. I wanted her to try really good, quality fish and chips. I took us all out to eat and my sister chose here. Gotta say, it didn't disappoint at all. The fish was perfectly cooked and fresh. The sausage was of equal quality, and the saveloy was delicious too. The chips were, if I'm honest, the best part. They were most excellent and so tasty that the first couple I had didn't need salt or vinegar on them. I like salt and vinegar so I added some, and it managed to somehow improve them. The service was good as we had a large dine in order for 11 people and they got everything right and it was all nice and hot. Highly recommended by the locals as a good quality plaice (seewhatididthere?), and also highly recommended by me.

Was not impressed with the Cod sold to me - certainly did not taste or look like cod . Service was poor given a plastic fork to sit outside on their tables , 20 pounds spend plate was apparently an extra charge . Had a beer and a savaloy - fish was a letdown and overpriced I thought for the quality and experience. Chips were okay . Apparently fresh fish not available in the area - in which case I might suggest visiting a local pub

Top notch nosh on Father's Day, fish and chips, sausage and chips and saveloy with chips. Served on white fish shaped plates. The staff were really busy so serving up a sausage instead of the saveloy was forgivable and rectified quickly. The missing fish and chips took so long to get that most of us were almost finished our meals before it eventually arrived. It doesn't take almost twenty minutes to correct a major screw up usually, but as long as people know that some of the staff were young and could not read each others writing, and possibly only there for their wages and no interest in customer care then they can avoid busy days like we intend to do in future. 2 mistakes out of 6 meals would usually deserve the wrath of my poisonous pen, however, on previous less busy days when youngsters are not working this business has been great. So with this in mind and not wanting to crucify one of the good fish and chip shops I had to bear in mind that even I can get things wrong (honestly). As we left a larger family quickly took our table as all other tables were full. The food, both eat in and take away has been consistently good/great, so as a small party of six we would all be returning without hesitation.

Friendly staff and usually great chips. Have had to edit my review as over the past 3 or 4 visits the quality of the chips has dropped. Now seem thinly cut and over cooked. A shame really . Since my last report I'm afraid the last of portion of chips have dropped in quality, smaller and over or undercooked. This. Has happened since a new member of staff joined so won't use them again.

This is a nice old town pub with very pleasant staff and a good choice of beer etc. There is a good atmosphere here plus they have bands sometimes. The food was mediocre , and not much of it , I had meatballs in a spicy sauce that wasn’t spicy at all , this was served with bread and a small salad. For £18 it was disappointing in taste and size . I had treacle tart for pudding with ice cream and once again not that tasty and a very small amount of ice cream. The choice on the menu is also very small.
