Papas in North Somerset

O.m.g. (food incredible and portion sizes very good)

Always go to Papas every year when we come to the Beach race , lovely place , lots of nostalgia on walls, worth booking your table though as it does get packed. Highly recommended

Was excited to try this place due to reviews, but the food wasn't great. Haddock was tasteless and certainly not fresh, slightly undercooked. Batter wasn't crispy and tasted of nothing. Chips okay, but dry & underwhelming, also small portions. It wasn't even busy in there but seemed to take ages for customers food to come out, other places which cook to order certainly don't take this long. Lastly I thought this branch was linked to the Papas Brand you get up North so that confused me. Overall I wasn't impressed, spending £35 on a meal of dry chips, tasteless not fresh haddock really annoyed me.

Absolutely delicious chippy. I used to come here when I was younger and remembered it was where all the popular people would go. So I had to go back whilst I was working over there. As I said, food was amazing but the price stung a bit and wouldn’t say it’s cheap as your traditional chippy but I believe their fish is freshly sourced.

Best fish and chips around. Very busy most evenings for take aways.

Ordered a large pitta kebab. It's was not as large as expected but tasted really good. The salad was not in the pitta but on the side with a large green chill. Salad was fresh. No chips at the price is a tad disappointing. Quality of the food was very good, not greasy or bad after taste Recommended.

Had a OAP special meal it was delicious. Fast service.Marked down on atmosphere as it was very quiet on day we visited. The staff were friendly.

I’d read reviews of Papas and was expecting a great experience. We usually favour Winston’s on the Seafront but the last visit left us looking for another option. We ordered fish and chips twice and two battered sausages. The quantity and quality of chips was great and the piece of fish was of a good size. Unfortunately the batter wasn’t crispy. It was soft and tasted similar to pancake. The fish was quite thin too. The battered sausages were outstanding!

undercooked scampi not worth the price or the wait

As always Papas is the tops friendy staff great food

Delicious fish and chips. Seniors lunch excellent value

Very busy but the gentleman serving had a welcoming smile for every customer and a warm welcome

Delightful takeaway. Most definitely lives up to its reputation. Will return again for classic fish and chips

Great fish, great chips, great fish and chips. Slightly long when seemingly not very busy.

Excellent service, excellent food.

Excellent quality best fish and chips in Weston

Always pop in when in Weston-super-Mare. Part of the holiday

A fantastic restaurant to enjoy a relaxing lunch or dinner.

Prompt and delicious, the best in town

Fantastic service and the food is Brilliant

Order said delivered when it hadn’t . Papas doesn’t take responsibility after it leaves the restaurant. It’s down to just eat and it takes ages to deal with. Not always with a positive response.

The best fish and chips in Weston!

Disappointingly a very small portion of fish, a lot of chips. Cod roe was fine. The fish was overpriced for it's size!

Wether we order something for lunch or evening dinner, after trying different places, we've come to the conclusion that PAPA'S is the best. You can't knock them.

My friend and I had lunch there while on a coach trip. Absolutely excellent food, service and a very friendly atmosphere, highly recommended.

The fish and chips are excellent and so is their curry sauce 😋

Lovely fish and chips and always friendly

Food hot and delivery driver very friendly and cheerful

Fish peas and curry sauce were fine but the chips were old dried up and uneatable and for £4.90 a disgrace.

Very good fish and chips (and deserts) but definitely overpriced.

order never arrived, said it had been delivered but has not been delivered to us. how can it be delivered elsewhere when a code is supposed to be given to the driver. nearly a 30 pound order missing, not happy.

I’ll start by saying the food was half decent the fish was nice and fresh but the chips was mediocre at best, definitely not worth the price. The service was okay in terms of time but the waitress was extremely rude and very judgemental. Very unwilling to help with queries and not great when asking about allergies. Wouldn’t come back again

Best chips I have had for a while. fish was thin , peas were cuod as was curry sauce.

A lovely meal from the very best fish and chip shop in Weston. Delivery right on time. Thank you.

Fish and chips by the sea. Exactly as it should be, perfect👌

Fish was undercooked,mushy peas & curry sauce was lovely as usual

It's not cheap but quality but is top rate fish and chips. There is a deal for pensioners too

Good service for OAPs, this time we had a choice of cod or haddock. Price includes tea, coffee or juice and a fresh bread roll.

Been living in Oz for about 8 years now - returned to my home town of Weston to sort out a bit of business. One of the few things I miss about England is proper Cod. Now, the best fish and chips were always from a shop in the nearby village of Worle - but they've now closed down and it's become a Chinese or something. I googled best fish and chips in Weston and Papas kept showing up. I went and had a sit-in meal with them today. The chips were nice proper thick cut and were cooked to perfection. The issue I had was with the Cod. I reckon if you stripped the very bland batter away, the fish wouldn't have been much bigger than a packet of cigarettes. It wasn't tasty either - the very nice (home made?) tartare sauce completely overpowered any taste the fish might have had. I was looking forward to a big, meaty piece of fish with firm flakes and a nice flavour, but was sadly disappointed. What made it worse was that as I'd been walking to Papas along the seafront, I'd seen people eating lovely pieces of Cod from the various cafes and vendors which looked much better than what i'd been served. I had a plate of Cod and chips, plus a glass of wine and it cost me £24.35 - I left feeling totally ripped off.

Easily some of the best fish and chips I’ve had. The chips are super crunchy. Portion sizes are great and generous. Food was delivered early and still piping hot fresh. Yum!

Just had food delivered via Uber Eats. Haddock was overcooked and very greasy, chicken nuggets undercooked with soggy coating and chips were undercooked and pale. We’ve ordered from Papas for years, but the last few orders have been very disappointing.

It was simply outstanding. The fish was perfectly cooked – crispy on the outside, tender and flaky on the inside. The chips were golden and chunky, just as they should be. But the true star of the meal was the curry sauce. I've had my fair share of curry sauces over the years, but Papas' is by far the best I've ever tasted. It was rich, flavorful, and the perfect complement to the fish and chips.

Ordered fish and chips at six thirty for seven o’clock didn’t arrive until eight ten. By the condition of the meal it has been kept warm not cooked to order as they had trouble finding a driver. Chips almost cold and soggy and batter greasy and soggy. Expensive and disappointing.

Was in a wet and miserable Weston Supermare but the craving for fish and chips never ceases. This place was rated 4.6 stars and having read some reviews (and easy parking outside) thought would give it a shot. £16.95 for cod and chips, not cheap but the quality of food was exquisite. Potatoes were fluffy inside and the right amount of golden and the cod was perfectly light and crisp with large flakes of pearly white flakes of cod. The curry sauce was not a standard jobby, had the nice surprise of currants inside which had a fruity sweetness which blended well with the tart Tartare sauce and always on the plate Heinz Ketchup. Highly recommended chip shop. One of the best I have had by the sea!

Went in tonight 13/08/24 just for a jumbo battered sausage and portion of chips. Got it home 5 minutes drive sausage had obviously been sat there for some time and the chips where well below par. Very disappointed.

Very good, tasty food freshly cooked. Quite expensive, but then again, everything is now. Have dropped offering a free bread roll with your food, which was a little disappointing when the meal was so expensive. Also, drink prices were extortionate. It would be OK if you were given a decent size glass, but they're like tiny squash glasses you got at school years ago. 2 mouthfuls of cranberry juice that came out of a 50p large carton you could by in asda should not be £2.50.

Very good food, lovely fresh fish cooked to order and the chips were delicious. Good value to

Small portion for £20 chips were hard and colds and looked as though they been sitting for a long time. Fish wasn’t fresh was cold and wasn’t cooked through. Very disappointing.

Miserable experience. Food mediocre and dramatically overpriced for what it was - certainly not "the best in town". White, flaccid chips, dry tasteless fish and mushy peas at £3.10! Seriously?! Staff were bored looking and didn't enhance an otherwise disappointing experience. Left feeling underwhelmed and I won't be going back!

Always have a great meal and the staff are excellent

You must visit, best fish and chips ever

Very disappointed, although quality was good , quantity was very bad I payed for a large chips and what I got wasn’t even a small size chips (did take pics but can’t upload). I have had from here many times so I know this wasn’t the normal ‘large’ chips. So now only 1 person could have some as wasn’t enough for everyone and had to get them something else. Order also missing Diet Coke

The fish was very good and the whole meal was super

Such a shame, the chips were soggy portions of fish reduced. Poor quality full stop. It’s such a shame as Papas has been great over the years, but obvioulsy quality and custom doesn’t matter anymore. Very expensive for what was sent.

Made an order and found out price is only for the fish... extremely expensive...never again

Think you know the best chippy? Think again Papas has it all sewn up. Best chippy I've ever visited .... by a country mile ... or should that be in a league of its own. Dine in for the greatest experience.

Really good meal, curry sauce is very good & the fish crispy & flakey cod. Would definitely recommend

Excellent food, special mention to the crispy batter and the curry sauce.

Papas is one of the best chip shops in Somerset & makes a trip to Weston Super Mare complete. The chips are crisp & the batter used is tasty. The staff are friendly & welcoming. Inside seating is available, but space feels tight for wheelchair use.

Best chippy in town. Only slight downside is you have to wait a bit as they are so busy and cooked fresh

Very disappointed with the food, fish was over cooked and chips weren't too clever either. It's been a while since I have been to Papas and have always loved the quality and cooking of the food......disappointed!!!

Nice fish and chips and good sized portions

The curry sauce portion is so small I ordered 2. Both combined sauces don't even make a quarter of a pint. Ridiculous price at £6.40! The chips are lovely however almost half the bag is the little off cuts which when cooked have no potato left in them. As for the fish, again lovely, however a regular cod and extra large portion is only around 30 grams. I know Papa's have a good reputation, however I only order when it has 40% off on Just eat as paying the regular price of £2.70 short of £40.00 (for fish and chips!) is a rip off.

Fairly expensive in comparison with other chippies in Weston. One in Worle is better and cheaper. Suppose it’s the location that creates the price

What a lovely place is Weston supermare. These was the best fish n chips we had since we visited Whitby. 😋 you gotta try them ..

Foods decent, the restaurant is pretty cool with loads of old chippy memorabilia and feels like your in a proper old school family run business. The service is diabolical - I've never felt more unwelcome. The geeza on the front counter had a face on like a slapped back side and was super blunt in conversation, and the woman running the restaurant side was mega rude and made me and my parter feel so uncomfortable we decided to take away our food instead of eating in. My missus said 'I really hope the food is good because the service is terrible' - did the food outweigh the service? Probably not. But it was a decent enough chip. Won't be spending my hard earned cash here again unfortunately.

Amazing food, best chippy I have ever tasted

Lovely as always really enjoyed my fish and chips 5⭐️

Food was OK, over priced but fair enough with the location. However, the waitress serving us was blunt, rude and to be honest I couldn’t wait to eat and go. Felt very uncomfortable and with her attitude she should be working in the kitchen out the way

Went here 28th June on recommendation fish was bland no flavour when made a comment the server said ate it I personally wouldn't go back

From the moment we walked in the staff were so rude and made us feel so uncomfortable. (Especially older lady with long hair) Definitely don’t recommend. Food was average but absolutely terrible customer service.

1st time as someone recommended unfortunately was not impressed fish had no flavour when made comment was told well you eat it might try different time

Best fish and chips in a long time. Has a sit in restaurant in addition to takeout and delivery. My wife enjoyed the charcoal grilled fresh sea bass and I had the battered plaice. Batter was crispy, not oily and fish was moist and flaky. The plaice fillet was quite thick unlike the usual thin fillets. Wall shows an interesting collection of celebrity guests. Well worth a visit. And for you cat owners, check out their “moggy bag”.

Fish was average! Curry sauce was very watery ! And the chips were disgusting , they was rock hard ! An all round bad meal .

Always the best way to get the quintessential British traditional fish and chips ... you pay for what you get, vice versa too.

Chips were awful , hard and inedible

We jad haddock & chips here and tjey were the best I've ever had. Will visit again soon.

Very expensive for what you get much better value on the sea front

Fish was beautifully cooked. Chicken was very dry, as if it had been left under heat for too long. Chips were also excellent. Delivery was bang on.

food turned up cold very disappointed

All staff friendly. They made a point of greeting us and thanking us as we left. Great with 3 year old in our party.

Lovely really enjoyed my fish and chips 👍😀

Lovely fish and chips really enjoyed them best ever highly recommended ❤️😀👍

Excellent meal. Very quick service 👍

Lovely fish and chips highly recommended ❤️😀

Quick delivery good quality and good portion size

We rarely have bad service here, though the wait times can be long. We often order on Uber or Just Eat and the food is usually pretty quick. It's got a little bit of something for everyone.

Tremendous traditional fish and chip shop. Excellent food, great service and photos and mementos of all the stars who have visited and enjoyed this quality chippy.

Better than usual. I made a friend in Mobydick.

Very very good quality chippy, Bit of a treat these days but worth the premium. Can get busy but worth the wait. Eat in for the best taste experience. Recommended

Scrumdiddlyumptious!! Thoroughly enjoyed my lunch here at Papa's. We chose the haddock and chips. Coffee tasted great and was served hot, always a win for me. Delicious food, friendly staff, pleasant atmosphere, and clean environment. An easy five stars from me. I am looking forward to visiting again soon.

Lovely plaice and chips cooked fresh good service.

It was terrible fish was bigger then my bellend

I ordered 3 separate meals plus a portion of chips and yet the chips where added in with the fish instead of as a separate portion - disappointed!

Went for a takeaway on an early saturday eve so there was about 10mins to wait for food, but totally worth it. Very fairly priced for the quality, and fish was wonderfully cooked. Definitely recommend! Large chips is absolutely plenty for two hungry adults and a toddler!

pretty average, the fish was very thin and over priced for what we received

I consistently come back here out of all the joints you could go to for fish n chips, this is the only one! It’s lush food, and usually a quick service. If not it’s only because they’re busy as they’re so good!

Food was very hot and tasted amazing!

Best place for fish and chips. Consistency in service and quality of food with a few very welcome updates to their menu for variety.

Visited today and very disappointed. Chips were burnt and bits. Looked like oven chips . Not their usual standard. So sad
