Excellence service delicious food very kind and friendly stuf, specially Emre and his colleagues were amazing Thank you all guys...

We have been served by Emre and his colleagues, they were very good and made us feel very special We had cod, it was superb 👌 Thank you all guys... 🙏

Just simply the very best fish and chips I have had in very many years! If you and in Whitstable you must give Ossies a visit.

Great friendly service and delicious fish and chips with generous portions sizes!

Fantastic fish and chips! Great friendly service, fish cooked to order and great portions!

Just want to say a shout out. After eating lovely food, I absentmindedly dropped my purse and left. One of the staff members ran after me to get it back to me. All my money, credit cards and driving licence were in there. I AM SO GRATEFUL. THANK YOU. Judi

Bossman gave me and my missus free chips whilst we waited and gave me the loads of extra cod. Best fish and chips I’ve had in a while

Fish & Chips was delicious!!!😋 Staff extremely friendly!

We were visiting Whitstable for the weekend from the midlands - we were very pleasantly surprised to have amazing food and service. We ate in and had cod bites and bake and chips. The staff were super friendly and polite and we watched as they greeted people as they passed by , giving out good vibes ! The chips were the best we had in years - non greasy and the fish light batter and great tartare sauce. The apple juice was also a high grade product and you can really tell that they care about their product and customer ! Thank you !

Bland food And the kitchen was disgusting I don't recomend It. If you're a tourist there's better places with better food, don't waste your money there

Good quality food, friendly staff 👌🏻

Great service happy friendly staff

Not bad food, very cramped, and the washroom leaves a lot to be desired!

Perfect spot to pick up fish & chips to eat on the beach. Always friendly service.

Came across this place by accident. Will definitely return. Top class food and service

Fantastic food very very clean the only problem was no wheelchair access

Lovely fish and chip shop, great guys working in there, really friendly. Went in there after pub to get 2 x Sausage in batter and the guy gave chips with it and said the chips are on the house, what a lovely touch. Do recommend this shop and we will be returning. Saturday 7th September 2024.

Delicious fish and chips and super quick service! Huge portions! We’ve been a couple of times and then taken it to eat on the beach, lovely!!

Food was fine, but nine quid for this small piece of fish is a bit steep.

Cash Only (with no indication on directories e.g. Google), overpriced, no hello or smile upon arrival. Waste of time, walked a long way to check them out.

Wonderful place, great food, amazing people 🙂 Thanks!

I stayed in the line to order take away this weekend I guess I was the lucky one as it took me max 10 min to get my order. I got haddock and chips and it was very tasty.

Great chips and excellent location just two minutes from the beach and I have to say, really friendly staff. However, no good if you’re vegan and or gluten free. Would be great to see some gluten free buns to go with a veggie burger, or gluten free buttered mushrooms/onion rings etc.

They charge you extra for sauce. 60p for one tiny sachet of ketchup is a joke. How can you sell chips and then charge for the sauce !

Very good. People queue all the time. Always a good sign eh. Especially if they're locals. Fish fresh and cooked when ordered. Fair prices for a tourist area by the sea.

Lovely fish cake and chips the best I've had in a long time and my daughter said the savaloy was the best she had ever tried , it was nice and clean in the shop and the service was brilliant, I can see why they have a lot of custom as they was very friendly staff and very helpful.

Lovely fish and chips, can see why there is always a queue! Very efficient, hard working staff

Better in Whitstable than this rubbish! Bad curry, bisto gravy and awful chips!! Wouldn’t recommend and definitely wouldn’t use again!

Lovely food, staff are welcoming and friendly, quick service

Probably the best fish and chips I’ve ever had in this country honestly. Staff were so lovely and accommodating

Always a queue outside here and I'm always impressed with the food. Definitely recommend

We were a group of seven and staff could not have been more helpful, moving tables chairs and taking our orders promptly. The food was delicious and proportions amazing. I will definitely want to come again.

Down for a couple of days; decided we had to have f&c while at the seaside. What a FANTASTIC choice. 4 of us had various options but all were so lovely. Great variety to choose from, huge portions and very tasty. Some of the best f&c we’ve ever had!

Nice enough fish and chip shop. Good value for money, enormous portions- would recommend one supper between two unless you’re really really hungry! Not the best frying I’ve ever come across- the batter was ok but nothing to write home about. All a bit too oily.

I felt very pressured to leave the premises as the workers gave underlying tones of racism towards me and my family not impressed would never come back

Excellent.. better then harbour fish and chips by a mile.

Our favourite fish & chip shop, for takeaway & sit in, we can highly recommend 👌

Probably wouldn't have reviewed a takeaway meal normally, but both my wife and I said it was the best fish and chips we have had from a takeaway - not greasy or oily at all. We can definitely recommend Ossie's in Whitstable town centre and we hope to return again soon.

Ordered a bag of chips and waited for 20 minutes while they served all the seated customers. Ridiculous will never return.

Haddock had a lovely, light, crispy batter; chips were perfect; curry sauce was a good consistency. Staff were accommodating and food was priced fairly.

Ordered and paid 2 small ones, received only one. Didn’t see it until we were on the beach already. Packaging not in a cardboard box so was a bit tricky to eat as well.

Very busy but the server was quick and polite. The food was good I would definitely come back

The best fish & chips I've had in many years. Fresh and thin crispy batter covering chunky skinless fish with real potato chips. Friendly staff giving excellent service.

We ordered cos and chips. Chips were good but fish was dry and batter wasn't flaky.

Ossies is hands down the best fish and chips shop in Whitstable and a firm family favourite over the last decade. The staff are always lovely and recognise regular visitors - everyone works hard but always makes you feel well served even when it is super busy. To eat in is a very classic fish and chips shop experience - Formica and chunky crockery - a great vintage experience and very welcome on a cold/wet day. They continue to impress trip advisor reviewers and proudly display their 'best' chippy reviews. I have to say there is nothing like grabbing a bag of chips, heading down to the sea and enjoying a little sunset food - magic.

Absolutely lovely fresh tasty fish - light and fluffy melts in your mouth - delicious 😋 Great service by quick professional polite helpful staff. Can’t wait to go back . Recommend this place highly. Ossies is the best!

Had the most amazing fish and chips and the staff are absolutely brilliantly friendly, I'd recommend this place to everyone 👏

Fish good but chips average and the curry sauce the consistency of Evian.

Visited twice during our week long stay in Whitstable. First time we got the wrong order, the fish we did get was overcooked and very thin, badly in need of seasoning. Went in tonight to get a small fish for my granddaughter (£6.50), it was dry, overcooked, and lacked any flavour at all, the chips not much better, the dog had it.

Two of us had cod and chips and ate in. Fish was beautifully cooked, not oily at all, which is quite often a complaint at my local chippy. Service was friendly and quick. Only slight let down was the toilet facilities- but minor. Will definitely use again. Well done Ossies

Nicest staff and nicest chips. Thank you 😊

Excellent fish n chips. Fresh and hot

Went with my family of 5 was asked to come back even though there was a table for 6 available. Made to feel very uncomfortable standing in the door way with all the other customers looking at us. Really horrible and unfriendly atmosphere.

We had the most amazing Haddock and chips here today. The staff helped my wife and me who is disabled thank so much.

Great customer service. We came at the end of the night so we bought items there were left in the cabinet. The man serving us was very helpful and gave us a smaller scoop of chips to eat while we waited. Very happy with the service and quality of food.

Absolutely loved it here. Old school chip shop vibe. The scampi is delicious! Sat in and the table service was brilliant. Our waiter was really smiley and polite. Big potions and a proper chippy.

All fur coat and no knickers ( plenty batter with little fish content ). Seated clients get served first even if you were in the queue before they were. Cash only sign also dubious in my opinion.

Food very good Unsure about a tub of uncooked chip on the outside of the counter for the customers to cough and sneeze over , with the gents used tissue being added to it as he thought it was a bin.

Nice fish and chips. Well cooked and friendly staff, can get very busy!

Lovley fish&chips... Best in Whitstable..only downside is there's always a qué but I guess that's a good thing shows it's popular 😁

The food was delicious an Ahmed was very funny and good person. I liked to do the fish and chips. The place was confortable and clean. I wolud repeat It🗿🤫🧏

It was very good but a bit smelly

It was a very clean and confortable place. The food's taste was delicious and savory. The staff was kind and friendly

Ossie's fish bar is a place clean but a little bit small, with good food but greasy, and a friendly and polite staff.

Delicious! Love going to Ossie’s in Whitstable.

Really good local fish and chip shop. The staff are really friendly and the food always tastes fresh - really good chips - hot and crispy outside, and fluffy inside. The batter on the fish isn't too greasy, crisp and fresh tasting. Also quite generous portions too. We go here quite a lot as the food is so good. Quite often if you have to wait for something to be cooked they'll give you some free chips whilst you wait. Definitely recommend!

Can't beat their chips, best I've had in Kent! We always have to stop by when we are in Whitstable. Dining in can be a little cramped if you pop in during the holidays, but you are always met with friendly, helpful staff.

Great customer service and the food was absolutely delicious

Great place to stop off for a bite to eat. Food was fresh and well cooked (we both ordered cod and chips). The staff were very friendly and helpful. Well worth a visit if you're in Whitsatble. Recommended!

Massive portions, food tasted alright, note cash only

Cod was dry - clearly left out for a while and the portions were rather small

Not good thick batter no finesse, kebab shop fish & chips

Ok now I have had some good Fish n Chips in my time, but this place has to be the best. We were recommended by Harriet from the Spacemask company and she was spot on. We sat in, and I believe it's the only way to eat at this location. The fish was fresh and beautifully cooked. Chips, crisp on the outside and fluffy in the middle. Absolutely brilliant and 100% recommend.

A sign in the shop says it was voted Kent's best fish and chip shop... I can see why. Delicious!

High quality fish and chips. Can get busy.

Excellent fish and chips, friendly and quick service. Prices were reasonable and portion sizes good.

Delicious fish, chips, and chicken, super friendly and helpful staff, great vibe!

Lovely kind staff! Good food. Very impressed

Fish and chips don’t get any better than this. Lovely staff. Highly recommended.

Ordered burgers and chips - quick service - would recommend v nice, chips are delicious would 100% go back!

Tasty fish and chips.Dined in which was ok

Had cod and chips. Fish fairly dry, batter crispy maybe even a little hard. Chips decent if you like that chip shop style. Overall not bad but nothing to write home about. Had the the food not come out of a warmer probably would have been much better.

Amazing quality fish and chips!!

Visited today for lunch with friends from my bowls club. We had a plaice & chips, cod & chips & a qtr pound cheese burger & chips and imho everything was cooked very very well. My friends really liked their fish & I thought the burger was great. The chips with the meals were cooked to perfection and the best I’ve had in a long time. Be hungry when you visit Ossies as you get a great size meal for your money.

I was super hungry and I found this place and order two chicken and mushroom pies!! Fast service and taste super good !!

Was going to chips round to Dock but decided to look around 1st and found this place and I'm so glad I did must be the best chips I have ever had and they don't skimp on the size of portions you get had batterd sausage and chips and a spam fritter the size of the fritter was large had to bring it on a separate plate and the batterd sausage was on top of the chips. I can highly recommend this place for price and quantity.

It's fish and chips, they are expensive, think they just put the prices up as it's Whitstable

Good food, good prices, fantastic service. Toilet clean. Overall very good and would return

A SCAM! We ordered two LARGE fish and they gave us two medium fish and when we pointed it out, they reluctantly gave us a half of a small fish each to make up for it. However, my friend ordered the same thing and got an ACTUAL large sized fish. Absolutely disappointing and what a total scam!!

Delicious and fresh fish and chips. They have a dine in area although the menu would be slightly different.

A total scam!! We ordered 2 large fish and was given 2 small fish instead; when we pointed it out, they gave us a “generous” 1/2 of small fish to make up for it. In addition, the fish was small and soggy, absolutely disappointing However, my friend ordered the same thing as us and got a normal large sized fish. How absolutely unprofessional. Please check carefully before visiting this shop.

Shocked when we ordered fish and chips with no chips. Fish was good

The best fish and chip place I've had the pleasure of eating. Massive portions for good prices. Great owner and staff too! Also, I haven't been able to find saveloy in Canada so it was a rare treat for me.

Funny to see the shock reaction when we order fish only, no chips. He came back just to check we had all our marbles. The cod was great, cooked perfectly, and if we'd had chips our guts would have been over filled.

Food good, service good, lovely cup of tea all at reasonable prices

Went to Ossie’s based on reviews, also the fact that I phoned a few fish and chip shops and they were the only ones who used fresh fish - and with a fresh fish market just down the road you’d have thought the majority would have.. In my opinion the reality didn’t live up to the reviews. I’d asked for loads of salt and vinegar, (could barely taste any), the batter was quite thick with crunchy lumps, chips average . My husband waited and collected it, drove back to the beach, only to find they hadn’t put the drinks we’d purchased in the bag . Wouldn’t rush back

This shop is one of the best I ever been to in UK. The staff are so lovely, smiling and helpful and they offered us free chips because we had to wait a bit. The food is very delicious and authentic. If you every in Whitstable you should never miss it. Tried the fish and chips and scampi 🍤 and it was perfect 😍 The prices are very reasonable less than 10£ for the meal

Great food and even better staff.

We bought takeaway cod and chips and a huge portion of chips on Weds pm. We ate on the seafront and couldn’t have been happier with our food. The chips were well cooked and tasty. The cod was fresh, white and completely delicious. This is the best Fish and Chip shop in Whitstable.

Super slow service especially since there wasn’t a rush. Paid £4.20 for a cheesy chips and got less chips than the £2.50 cone of chips. The tray of chips wasn’t even full. Terrible value for money, and chips not all that great. Would NOT recommend.
