Just out shopping and decided to stop at Papa's for lunch, have been before, the fish and chips are the best in Folkestone, the service is always friendly and helpful and not overpriced. Will definitely go back when in town, very good fish and the chips are Not frozen.

Friendly welcome on arrival. Seat for one by the window. Menu with a nice selection of fish. Windows into the kitchen are a good sign. I ordered Haddock and chops with mushy peas; cooked to order. Lovely crispy batter and flaky fish. Devoured it all. Followed it up with Treacle sponge and custard. Very nice atmosphere with attentive waitresses.

Easily one of the best fish and chip restaurants in the whole of Kent. They do a selection of smaller meals for people with a little tum. One of my favourites is fish bites and chips! Always places to park nearby and they offer takeaway, dine-in and delivery.

I’m not being hyperbolic when I say the takeaway fish & chips that I ate in the car was quite possible the best I have had. Haddock cooked fresh in a light, crispy batter & excellent chips with mushy peas on the side.

We were staying for a few days in Folkestone, needed to find somewhere for an evening meal. Papa's fish & chips looked ideal from the outset. It looked clean and welcoming and is a restaurant, not just a takeaway. The staff were very helpful and welcoming. They accomodated our odd little requests such as wanted our tea AFTER we'd eaten. The ambiance in the restaurant area is like a nice pub. The main event, the food, is superb. Lovely cod and chips. The menu offers a lot of variety and some great value for money deals. I definitely recommend everything about it.

When in Folkestone we always head for Papas to eat in. I’ve eaten fish and chips in many places but these remain the best. Fish is tasty and well cooked and the batter light and crispy, chips are cooked and browned and not in the slightest bit greasy. The cafe is spotlessly clean and the staff are lovely. A real gem.

Very busy meaning the food is fresh and quick turnover . The fish and chips I had were lovely. The fish was straight from the frier to package. Reasonably priced. Extremely, pleasant mature lady serving who was welcoming, friendly and efficient . The very handsome , designer bearded chef also pleasant . If you're wanting fish and chips / chip shop food this a great place to go.

A good fish & chips with quite a choice of fish (cod, haddock, skate, salmon...), shrimp and squid. The fish is fresh, the fries are good and the portions are generous. We also enjoyed the coleslaw (to have a bit of vegetables ;)) and the pea puree. Smiling and very friendly service. A nice fish & chips with a good choice of different fishes. Friendly service.

Incredible! First of all, the people for very kind, gracious, and helpful. They answered all of our American questions. Papa’s has some of the best fish I’ve ever tasted. I usually dunk my fish in plenty of ketchup, but this was delicious eating it as is. The chips were decent, but the biggest delicious surprise was the banana fritter! WOW!! Get it with maple syrup and you can thank me later. We had two three fish specials, one fritter, and a bottle of Tango, and spent less than 13£.

2 of us had lunch here, quite busy for a Thursday, we had a choice of 2 tables. The food that was ordered was served quickly and politely, with a bit of a throw back to school dinners, as we both had spam Fritters and chips, tasted just how we remembered it. Definitely go back again just for that even though the menu was the usual fare for a fish restaurant.

Absolutely love this place. We had our works do there and the seafood platters are so well presented and the food is really fresh. Alison the owner and her lovely daughters need to pat themselves on the back. Nothing was too much trouble the train carriage you sit in is really different, warm and the decor is very tasteful. One of our party didn’t eat seafood so she had the steak, great value for money and cooked too perfection. Will definitely be back.
