Great little gem thats family run. I have been a few times and the staff have always been super friendly. The chips are probably the best around, the fish always tastes super fresh and any other side I've had have always been spot on. Now my go-to chippy. 😊😊👌👌

Worst fish & chips I’ve had in a long time! Fish was so overcooked, batter was horrible & so were the chips. Nothing like the photo on their website really disappointed!

This is the best chippie around. Food is well cooked, staff are warm, friendly, helpful and inviting. Eat in option is available. Credit and debit cards accepted, including contactless payments. Great selection of food available. 10 out of 10!

Its great to have a takeaway that serves proper tasty chips that are hot and not greasy! There is a good range of fish, pies, sausages and burgers on offer. My only complaint is that my Mum won't let me eat here more often! I thought chips could be one of my five a day.

In42 years of living in this area we have never had such disgusting fish and chips.£15.40p for 2pieces of cod and 1 large chips. At gone 17.30 one would not expect to be served chips from lunch time,and the fish did not taste fresh and was paper thin.Having worked in a fish & chip shop some years ago I am supprised that this shop is still in business.By the time we got home(just off Decoy Drive)our meal was all but cold,and it was in a bag to keep it hot.

Placed a large order of battered sausages with chips and several cod and chips for scout camp. Booked it for delivery for 18:15 and the order not only turned up on time but with a huge smile. Each portion was individually wrapped, marked with what It was and most importantly tasted amazing after a 15 mile hike. Would highly recommend Polegate Fisheries and will definitely be using them again.

This plaice, sorry for the pun is CASH ONLY, so beware no cards of any sort are taken. Bit old fashioned these days. They cook gluten free food on Tuesday and Wednesdays, with everything cooked to order so there is a short wait. But portions are good and nicely cooked. Parking is not very easy.

Yes it's fish and chips!! but it is good fish and chips, even at peak times the chips are done in small to medium batches so that they are not " held " for too long , making them " soggy " The staff are friendly , and talk to the customers even at peak times keeping them informed of any waits and hold ups , that way you feel as if your " special " not just a body to be served. BTW there are other items on the menu apart from the staple fish and chips.

I have seen how friendly they are to us and the other customers, if you are new to the polegate fisheries you will become friends with them very easily. They are wonderful people and the cook incradiable food. They also do mushy peas, gravy, pickled eggs, pickled onions and gerkins and many more things. The food there is very well priced and great quality. I definitely recommend everyone should go there.

The batter is horrendous This shop is ideal if you’re just after a portion of chips and a curry sauce, no faults with that. But the Haddock I had and battered sausage was awful, it was like a flat chewy skin, not crispy and fluffy. Normally batter goes fluffy and crispy when it’s fried but this was like deep fried cycling shorts unfortunately. The fish was very dry too but sausage had good flavour. The size of portion for sausage and fish was reasonably good for the price but the batter made me leave most of it in the bin. I’d like to think this is just a bad day as the two blokes running it were nice, however I won’t be coming back.

I drove past one fish bar locally and it was empty this one had a queue of 6 waiting, and for good reason. I joined the queue and got cod and chips within 5 mins( four staff). They deserve credit because it was good quality fish and I had so many chips I couldn't eat them all.
