Peter's Fish Factory in Thanet

Nice price nice portions quick service cooked fresh

Just called in today, it is our first trip to Ramsgate and we ordered cod and chips with peas. It was delicious and alot cheaper than the London prices. Everyone was friendly and we didn't feel rushed so we enjoyed our late lunch..Will definitely come back again..thanks..

Great food & service Always freshly cooked & tasty. Passers by asked if food any good & when they were served said "very pleased they stopped" Visiting Margate next week so will compare branches &

I was walking past this shop and saw the sign for a chip butty and was excited to revisit the taste of my youth. The chips were delicious, soft with some lovely crunchy bits 😋 however the bun not so much. The bun tasted like the lidl 6 for £1.50 type bun, it was floppy and within minutes it just fell apart. A bakery roll would have been much better with some really Anchor butter. Staff were lovely and friendly and the place was really nice and clean.

Nice chips and sausage, little expensive but then, we were at the seaside, £18 for small and large chips and 2 sausages and saveloy

Decent fish and chip shop in a convenient location near the seafront. We ordered takeaway, but there’s both indoor and a bit of outdoor seating available. It’s a popular spot, so be prepared for a queue. Prices are reasonable and portions are generous, with a good variety of fish on offer. The fish was nicely crispy but lacked seasoning – some flavour during cooking would have made a big difference. Chips were tasty, though. I asked for salt and vinegar but it wasn’t added, so had to sort it myself at the table. I also ordered mushy peas and it also needed some seasoning. The décor is interesting, with fish exhibits and informative boards. However, the seating inside is quite cramped and hygiene could be improved.

Very weird to have to review like this as we were down for a weeks stay and visited twice for take away first time on a busy Friday evening 2 x medium cod and chips delicious absolutely great taste and fish flaky and not greasy really good . Then thought were just have chips again as they were so nice so little later than last visit popped in about 6.30 and ordered battered sausage and chips and steak pie and chips !!! How disappointing pie was nice it’s a steak pie and sausage ok but chips were barely warm and re-heats with 40% hollow crisps not chips . Both visits we had to wait a few minutes but that’s fine . So guys visit only when queues are out the door and your’ll get fresh .

We stopped here for medium fish and chips today. It was excellent and great value for money, and the staff who had been there for 25 years each were fantastic. I would recommend this to anyone.

Nice traditional fish and chips, affordable prices especially for a Cod compared to some London prices where I'm from. Staff were friendly, and the interior decor is interesting with the swordfish and shark along with the variety of posters.

Wow, what lovey food. The fish was lovey. It was one of the best I've had in some time. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We eat in lovey space. Would come again. Thank you Keep up the good work

Disappointing. More batter than fish on the cod. Seemed like it had been refried. Grumpy/scary service.

Here for a few days and checked on TripAdvisor for a decent fish and chip shop... our first choice was closed on a Monday so our next option was here. Well the menu doesn't offer a vast choice but good enough ( l would have loved a pineapple fritter) l ordered large cod, large haddock and 1 large chips, the fish was well cooked and to order, lovely crisp batter and huge in size, which was good for the £9.20 each piece. However the chips were brown and not overly appetising covered in scabs from poor cleaning and a woolly texture to the point of although it was a large portion we ate 6 before throwing away. Not sure if they had been reheated but they let the side down. Staff very friendly and happy... not jobsworths or wishing they were elsewhere...... so they definitely need a pay rise, unfortunately they do need to learn how to cook a decent chip.

I'm a difficult man to please when it comes to reviews. But on this occasion I have to give five stars because I couldn't fault my visit. A cold February day on the coast and we had fish & chips and a mug of tea for lunch. Busy place but fast and polite service. Excellent quality fish & chips and good value for money. No frills certainly, but this is a chippy not a Michelin-starred restaurant. Many thanks.

A very welcoming place to stop off and eat when it was so cold outside.We had cod&chips for three of us and partner had a meat pie and chips. This was the best fish& chips I’ve eaten in a long time and exactly how it should be. It’s actually quite refreshing to have eaten well tasting good fish& chips. The Cod was succulent, and the batter was crisp and not greasy.The fish had no skin on it either. Chips were fab, just the right amount. Such a simple meal but many get it it wrong! All of us really enjoyed our food that we sat in to eat. Thank you we will definitely be back when we next come to Ramsgate from Essex

Stopped off here in Ramsgate for a bite to eat, undoubtedly the best fish and chips I’ve eaten for a long time.A welcoming place, very clean and friendly staff.Three of us had medium Cod&chips and my partner had a steak pie chips.We sat in to eat, food is served up in the boxes but with proper cutlery which is great. The fish was superb, pure white succulent cod cooked to perfection , no skin either so you know it’s been prepared properly, the batter was light, not greasy, honestly if I could I would of eaten again ! The chips yummy! The steak pie my partner said was bloody fab with plenty of meat in it, and he loves a pie! Well done to all the Staff here we loved it and will definitely come back again🌟⭐️🌟

Had 2 medium cod and chips, were absolutely beautiful, batter was dry, crispy and the fish was perfectly cooked as were the chips, you can sit in, outside or takeaway. Had a good choice of other items on the menu to choose from. We sat inside, the place is spotlessly clean as was the toilets. 10/10 will definitely return, highly recommend

Good food and friendly service.

Have been in twice in the last month and food is great but the lady always seems like she has the hump

Lovely sausage and chips with fast friendly service. A small seating area to sit outside and enjoy your meal in the sun.

Asked for extra vinegar on the chip butty and it made the bun all soggy, luckily I don't mind vinegar but it made me feel sick due to all of the vinegar. Couldn't taste anything else.

On a freezing cold foggy afternoon, this place delivered a sublime fish & chips, straight from the fryer, along with a stonking cup of tea.

There are no proper plates, no Sauce's on the table, the tables and chairs are cramped. Would I eat there again NO NOT EVER.

The worst fish and chips I've ever had. Neither me or my children could eat the fish goujions, they were almost completely batter with the thinnest slither of fish and they were so saturated in oil that they dripped. Unfortunately, we had already walked up the hill towards home and the children were tired so we couldn't go back to speak with them about it. The lady who served us was very pleasant though.

A lovely family run business with amazing food and really good prices. Can get busy in the summer but is definitely worth the wait. Me and my boys have been coming here for a few years now and the food has never disappointed. Would highly recommend

It's a chip shop lol, but decent enough, cooked fresh and great on a cold wet night lol, ideal location and polite engaging staff

Very, very tasty. Fish and chips were great. And there was also a Fried Mars bar. Delicious and great people there. Always my pleasure

Enjoyed the meal but didn't really like eating out of a box. Food was a tad greasy but batter was really nice. Decent cup of tea as well.

Nice fish n chips, battered sausage was lush! staff were friendly.

A great place to eat friendly with great food as well

The fish was really good and meaty with good tasting batter, the chips are some of the best I've tasted, service was quick and you can sit inside at no extra cost.

Fish and chips good. Great friendly service and lively atmosphere. Child freindly

Nice traditional fish and chips

Cod and chips ,absolutely delicious!

Lovely trip to the seafront with my kids, the chips were perfectly cooked and served promptly, thank you.

Totally disappointed in my order .. soggy batter on fish . And also battered sausage .. curry sauce was not nice ...

Food was lovely and cheap but the portions were a little small. Staff were lovely and food was served very quickly.

On a road trip down the Kent coast with a friend we dropped into peters for lunch. I’ve been before to both Ramsgate and Margate branches so I know it’s good. We had haddock, chips , peas. Really delicious! Haddock is always more expensive but the size of the fillets were huge. What made it better was the lovely staff. They’re so friendly and welcoming especially the lady that served us. I love that you can put on your own salt and vinegar as I like lots ! Peter’s is a legend in Thanet ! May it remain so !

This place was wonderful I'm from the USA was in Ramsgate for the day. I stopped in with a friend. We were greeted by a nice man who helped us with our order of Cod and Chips. A very nice woman brought the food to our table. It was soooooo good. I would definitely come back here again. The locals must love it too because they were streaming in constantly and everyone was treated kindly. We were sad when the meal was done. They don't make food like this in America. We'll, it's the perfect excuse to come back to Ramsgate. Thank you Peters Fish Factory for an unforgettable lunch!!!! Carmen

The food was ok. The large cod wasn't good value. Not the greatest piece of fish but slightly better than average. Eat in and the food served in takeaway boxes. I know fish and chips are now becoming a luxury, price wise. But this was on the higher end and not great value. The sauces were poor particularly the curry. A cafe environment charging restaurant prices. It's better than average quality wise but not up to the prices charged.

Excellent plaice and chips served by a lovely lady. Presented in a box which was easy to negotiate-no washing of dishes which must help the staff!

Still amazing after all these years. We were a party of 11 and made to feel very welcome. Food hot and tasty.

Good portions, really tasty. Fresh food.

Incredible chips that were a great portion size! Great locations, and fast service. Nothing else to say. Big thumbs up.

Undoubtedly a very busy place at the weekends. The fish was, as expected, quite good—crispy and flavourful. However, the chips left much to be desired. They were too sticky for my liking, which took away from the overall meal. One thing that really surprised me was the pricing. While I understand that good fish comes at a cost, I didn’t appreciate paying extra for condiments. Seriously, £1 for ketchup/ mayonnaise? That felt a bit excessive. The service was excellent. The staff was friendly and attentive. They really know how to keep customers happy, and I appreciated that. Overall, while the fish is definitely worth a try, I hope they'll reconsider their chip preparation and condiment pricing. It’s a decent spot, but I think I’ll be looking for other options next time I'm in Ramsgate. Cheers.

Typical fish and chips. No issues with it, food was tasty. But having to pay 50p for a sachets of sauces was a bit off for me as we were eating inside

Best fish and chips we've experienced. Not greasy or slimy, nice crisp batter. Good presentation. Served promptly and good size portions. Prices on parr with other Kent/Sussex seaside locations visited. No extra charge for sausage to be battered.

Went here for some fish and chips after the beach. Cod was great although chips were a little soft for my liking. It was busy but it was being run by a very efficient woman who was very helpful and accommodating even while multi tasking.

Service was nice, but chips were soggy and fish was ok.

Decent chips, if not a little expensive considering it’s Ramsgate. They don’t have vinegar and salt by the counter so you need to go back and get some from the tables if you want to make your own flavour. Staff are fairly decent and there is quite a bit of a wait even when it doesn’t seem busy.

This used to be a lovely chippy . We loved to sit inside and treat ourselves to a nice meal of fish and chips and a tea. For whatever reason, they've done away with proper plates and cutlery and serve the meal in a cardboard box - I could live with that, but the fish was chewy and not pleasant to eat. The chips were passable but didn't seem freshly cooked (even though they may have been). We won't be returning. There are plenty of other chippy in the world

Very good fish and chips. Mushy peas also good. Can sit in. Open later on Fridays and Saturdays than most other chippies which is handy.

Best fish and chips in Thanet. But service could of been better. I was standing and waiting for ages without being acknowledged. 🤷‍♀️

Chips were a little disappointing, not how I remember in previous years.

The food was absolutely delicious. Very good service. Friendly staff. 100% recommend it

I honestly cannot see how anyone could give anything less than 5 stars for this place, truthfully as this HAS to be the best quality and best value Fish & Chips by far in the South-East for sure. None of this old oil, thick stodgy batter or soggy chips that turn to mush like you seem to be getting at most fish & chip places. The offers they have on such as £5.55 for Haddock & Chips, Hoki & Chips etc. are medium sized portions but the fish is AMAZING. You can tell the attention to detail and quality is their priority as there are massive flakes in the fish, chips are cooked perfectly so that they're not either soft or mushy as they keep their consistency. Curry sauce is modified in their own way, which makes it different to your usual chip shop curry sauce like you'd get from a Chinese takeaway. I'd rather drive down and get this than put up with the below par quality you get in London and South-East, as some do start off well then when they get a high enough customer count then the foot comes off the gas and quality starts to decline which isn't good. With this place, consistently perfect and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Worst fish I have ever had ; dry, overcooked , and had clearly been there for ages . Inedible. Wish I’d taken notice of other reviews and walked back into town . Don’ t recommend at all.

the service was fairly fast. the large cod was OK. bit too much batter for my liking but my wife lived it.

Best fish I’ve ever had. Friendly and good price. Nice swordfish on the ceiling

Been coming to this place for a number of years. Turned up at 21,30 last night looking for some fish and chips or just chips as it shuts at 22.00 , only to be told by some very Rude staff that we are now closed , i suggest you advertise you do not shut at 22.00 but when it suits, I will now be taking my hard earned elsewhere .

Really tasty haddock and great price too.

Amazing food, amazing portion sizes, kind staff and nice place

I use to visit here often after a day at the beach growing up and was always amazing. However went there a few months back and was awful food & service. Today we brought a large chips to share and was presented with a tiny box with a handful of chips that would have been enough for my 3 year old son to eat alone. We questioned the size to be told it was right , just under £5 for a kids portion!! Not to mention they tasted awful, too soggy and oily definitely wasn’t cooked properly. We’ve brought a small portion from a different shop before and was 3x bigger than these! Staff aren’t as nice as they use to be. Won’t be returning!

Good crispy batter and tasty fish!! We’d walked from Margate so I was ready for this!

Used this place for years religiously as it is the best but I won't be returning anymore spent 25 quid on food for me and my children sat outside and got absolutely ransacked by seagulls about 10 of them flew onto the table and started demolishing all the food which then had to be chucked away and Petes fish factory didn't even offer a free portion of chips to my kids considering its 4 pound a portion absolutely shocking customer service

We’ve been here a few times and had no issues but lately we’ve noticed that the fish and chips are too greasy. It’s a shame because the staff and venue itself are great, but if they could cutdown on the grease it’ll be 5 stars.

Well that was a delicious portion of chips enjoyed in Ramsgate harbour.

One of the crispiest COD I’ve ever tasted. Highly recommended.

A great fish and chip shop in Ramsgate and clearly very popular (expect a wait on tourist days and weekends). Only criticism would be that the chips could be less soggy.

Nice fish & chips. Decent portions, lovely staff. Great atmosphere & design

Fish was great but quite a few flies buzzing about

Fish was good no table service some flies present

Chips were soggy. Paid 3.15 for a small portion and wasn’t impressed. They’re also charging 50p for a tiny sachet of sauce. This place used to be great but it’s gone downhill and is overpriced for the quality

What a disappointment ... We ate in and got our fish & chips in a cardboard box and wooden cutlery. The batter was soggy and stuck to the paper. The fries were limp and we had to pay 50 pence for a small sachet of sauce. What next, charge for vinegar and salt?

It's was awful and put me of a tradition dinner for life I will never go back to Peters

Myself and two friends have visited here a couple of times now. Both times food really tasty 😋 2nd time not a mountain of chips which was perfect. 1st time way to many chips 🍟

Ordered 4 fish and chips. paid extra for ketchup and mayonnaise, overall fish was fine but chips were not good at all. Would come back.

Vile! My wife bought 2 sausages in batter and a portion of chips for us to eat while sitting ar the marina. The sausage batter was more like congeled slime, when scraped off the sausage was white due to the high(80%) bread count. Chips were all clumped together and covered with grease. Worst food I have had for a long time, only wish I could give it no stars.

Excellent stop off after a long dog walk, really good quality food, quick and happy service, very busy which is always a good sign

It's still alright, but quality definitely fell off past pandemic

Another great visit and first time this year (Feb24), while visiting for a walk around Ramsgate. Tasty and hot fish and chips and polite and friendly staff, with the fish and chips being made to order and they remain a nice and ample portion size and good value for money.

Large Cod and Chips so fresh and really enjoyed it a real delight 😊 highly recommend and will definitely visit again soon 😀

Best chips I've had in a long time. Shame it's over an hour from home

Really good service and good staff

Clean. Staff friendly. Allowed us to eat our food inside even though we only had chips

Very tasty cod and chips. Eaten inside on an unusually wet day in Ramsgate

Honestly so disappointed. Ordered large cod @ £9.50 Ordered mushy peas not mushy fish!!! Def frozen, fish was tasteless and water logged. Chips were ok. Spoke with waitress and asked if the fish was frozen and she said yes it get frozen at sea 🤦🏻 Don’t bother honestly

Cod not cooked thoroughly,batter sticky uncooked and soggy.Chips oily ,vinegar seemed watery and served in a card box to eat at the table.The wall clock ran backwards anti clockwise.Wish we had eaten at Weatherspoons over the road to spend our lunch money of £23 for two.

Best place for fish and chips in Ramsgate. Ive been going everyday whilst staying here. Cod is amazing, and I had a fish called Hoki? Never heard of it but it was amazing and perfectly cooked. Very well priced . Highly recommend a visit whilst in Ramsgate.

The worst chip shop in Ramsgate. Ordered pie and chips that cost £7.60. Asked how long the chips had been there and the staff member said 5minutes! Worst chips I’ve ever tasted. Took them back and offered a new portion, they also ended up in the bin. How hard is it to serve good fish and chips by the seaside. Change the oil and have some pride in your produce.

Fast service and generous portions of chips to eat in, even though we asked for small. Good value. Tables were spotless, staff friendly and efficient. Proper chips, not those spindly crispy things. Would definitely go back.

We have been coming here on and off for about 10 years and used to be served sitting inside the place at a table with fish and chips on a plate. Today......Oi - fish is ready come and get it. In a box - just under £30 and when I asked for ketchup - it's a pound mate . Guess what? Your loss, I shan't be returning, AND it wouldn't have been quite do bad if the tables were clean and the food was better.

Visited this place back in September. Excellent quality cod & chips, freshly fried. The dining area is nice.

One of the fish and chips shops near the beach has a good seating area, and the food portion is generous. However, the prices are a bit high. Also, any sauces need to be bought here. There's a slightly burnt oil smell in the chips, indicating a need for an oil change. the fish tasted good.

I went here mid week for a take-away. They have seating inside and out too. Friendly staff, but the chips and fish were incredibly greasy. Hoki and chips £5.95, Medium cod £6.80 and chips £3. £1 extra for a small sauce sachet. A bit much considering an entire jar of tartare is half that price at a supermarket! I won't be rushing back.

I am absolutely appalled i have just bought some chips and have found a bug amongst them

Grease, windy weather and tasty fish. A perfect seaside experience

Lovely chips and cheerful staff!

It’s a cute little chippy by the sea but they are pretty expensive for the portion sizes. They’ve gone the route of buying the boxes and then filling it up to give the illusion you’re getting a lot but it’s maybe a third of what you’d get if they wrapped it in paper and they’re charging way more than other places I’ve been. It’s really good fish and chips though (infinitely better than the place across the traffic lights) so it’s worth it for the odd treat but the prices put us off making it more regular.

This is the best fish and chips by far in Kent.Always cooked fresh.Staff are friendly and the place always looks clean.What more could you want?

Brilliant fish and chips, fresh, hot and delicious!
