Delicious fish and chips in such a brilliant beach front location, it only lost a star because of the wait time, makes sense though, it was a bank holiday Monday

Certainly! Here's a glowing Google recommendation you can use: --- If you find yourself in Whitstable, the. Ossies Best Fish and Chips is an absolute must-visit! The authenticity of the experience is matched only by the deliciousness of the food. The fish was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, just the way it should be. The chips were golden, fluffy, and paired beautifully with the fish. This isn't just any fish and chips – it's a taste of tradition, served with a smile in a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The freshness of the seafood was evident in every bite, making it clear why this spot is so beloved by locals and visitors alike. Beware there are queues out the door on a Friday! Do yourself a favor and make sure to stop by for an unforgettable meal. You won't be disappointed!

Disappointed with the food and service. Food barely warm the cod was greasy and all grey and dry it was awful. The fat they are frying in tastes old. It has been repeating on me most of the evening. I will not go there again. Unfortunately the place has gone down hill. Aprons better hygiene friendly service and hot nice food is missing.

Life is expensive but we felt we had good value for money. We will certainly return and highly recommend. Everything clearly freshly cooked to order. Be prepared to queue for the take away

Unfortunately, my experience didn’t compare to the good reviews. Visited and queued for over 25 minutes outside and only then saw the notice inside saying it was cash only. Maybe an idea to post this on the window. Not a problem as had some cash but don’t usually as everywhere takes card. That aside, ordered 2 lots of cod and chips - the chips had no flavour and the cod just tasted of fat and batter (no cod taste at all). Bitterly disappointed. My 15 year old said the same thing so wasn’t just my thoughts!

Discovered Ossies Best Fish and Chips in Whitstable through Google Maps, and the reviews didn’t disappoint. The cod and chips we ordered were absolutely delicious—fresh fish and generous portions. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We opted to sit outside to enjoy our meal. There’s a separate area for dining in, but the prices are a bit higher. Nevertheless, highly recommend! We noticed lots of locals popping in for takeaway, which is always a good sign.

Haven't sat in the restaurant side for a long time, completely changed menu, the food looked well presented with good options,. I thought it would just fish and chips, but there were good alternatives to deep-fried fish. I had basic cod and chips, which was served to perfection, cooked just right, the fish was moist, not dry, the chips were golden but not dripping in oil or fat.

Unfortunately they work on a by order basis, so even though we ordered only 2 small chips, we had to wait 25 minutes to get our food whilst they cooked all the bigger orders ahead of us. Such an inefficient way to run it and completely different to the other fish and chip shops in Whitstable.

Always been a favourite of ours. Great fish and chips and not far from the sea front too. Deducted a star because on my last visit I was kind of forced to pay cash. I didn’t have a bank card on my just Apple Pay and was made to pay via a bank transfer. So beware if you don’t have a card to cash.

This lovely business survived the pandemic and has thrived since, with reinvestment in the customer facing premises, and the eat-in area is now very comfortable, with a clean, cosy feeling. The staff are relaxed and friendly, the food menu is consistently good. We had the green fish curry and battered plaice today, were impressed by the portion size of the chips, and the coffee was great. We'll continue to go out of our way to come to Ossies because it's worth it. We no longer need cash, which is a real relief.

Previously had top notch, crispy delicious fish & chips from Ozzys . Tonight it was not busy, in fact we were the only ones in the place at 5.45 pm. It was stale and tasteless. The fish/batter was mushy, the chips were soggy and leathery. This was definitely food cooked at lunch time, being served at dinner time. Really not fair. Is it worth loosing a regular customer over £10? We wont be returning sadly.

So if you want to eat really good fish and chips, this is the place for you. The quality of the food is very good. The young woman who served us was also very friendly and accommodating. The prices for the food are acceptable, but for drinks they are slightly excessive in my opinion. But the whole thing makes a neat and clean impression. In high season. I would imagine this fish and chip restaurant is certainly packed.

Funny how they rate themselves THE BEST, debatable Food was okay, the medium portion of chips, unbelievable small Are potatoes that expensive, you have to skimp so much, I have never had a portion of chips so small, we counted less than 30 chips on a plate, In our regular Broomfield fish bar, much better quality, and quantity, Won’t be using Ossies Best Fish And Chips Again, Funny how our regular Broomfield fish bar is still part of Ossies, Just much better service, quality and quantity, Tankerton shop, should be ashamed of yourselves, Potato saving skimpers

Wow, wow, wow!! We came to visit family whilst they are on their holiday and we booked in for a roast dinner! What a great choice!! Four of us had the beef, and one had the chicken. I had the beef and it was delicious! A great selection of vegetables, skin-on potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and the tastiest red wine gravy I’ve ever had. The beef was so tender and melt in your mouth. Followed by a wonderful portion of homemade tiramisu. If you do want to try Ossie’s, you have to pre-order the type of meat you would like in advance. Highly recommended and we will be coming down again for another visit and another roast dinner. We live two hours away and it is absolutely worth the drive down here to have another one of these roast dinners, and try out some of the other meals available on the menu. We are already discussing and planning our next visit!!

Lord knows how they have such a long queue. Fish and chips was very poor. Fish was over cooked and bland. Chips were drastically undercooked. Mushy peas decent (hard to mess that one up) Ketchup was fake. Tartare was ok. Vinegar wasn’t even close to vinegar, was heavily watered down. Toilets filthy. £38 too pricey for what is was.

Really disappointed with our fish and chips. The food was really bland and not very tasty at all. The chips tasted undercooked for my liking and the fish although massive just didn’t taste that good. I’ve had far better fish and chips elsewhere. Also horrible cheap ketchup! For an eat in place I also felt that the toilets were really unpleasant. They had to be accessed down a narrow side alley which would not be suitable for pushchairs or wheelchair users. I wouldn’t recommend going. For £38 (we ate in) it was also a bit pricey.
