Ravensmere Fish And Chip Shop in Waveney

As a local I don’t use the cod house but happened to be close so tried it but it was very disappointing The fish was dripping in oil and the batter was soggy. The battered sausages looked like they’d been cooked about 4 hours earlier and only half covered in soggy batter There are much better chip shops in the town so avoid this one !

The Cod House was recommended to me as the best place in Beccles for a takeaway so I ordered cod & chips this evening with mouth-watering anticipation. So very disappointing - the batter on the cod was soggy and the chips looked (and tasted) like they either hadn't been cooked in very hot fat or were warmed up from the previous night, which I'm sure they really weren't. Sorry but I will not be returning.

Pretty average fish and chips. All the chip shops in the area seem to fry in beef dripping, so if you’re a southerner like me, you’re not used to . We had a cod and a plaice, ok, but nothing special .

Unfortunately we did not enjoy our fish and chips. The batter was tough , the chips were left overs from lunch time. Certainly, we will never shop there again

I have been coming to the Cod House regularly and have always considered it a cut above the rest in the area. I have invariably had great fish and chips here. However, this Saturday the haddock and chips even exceeded their already high standard. Very fresh fish cooked to perfection. The chips, mushy peas were also great. The service was, as usua, friendly and efficient. Well done and thank you.

the staff are very efficient and the food is always amazing, will always return. there fish tastes fresh and chips are always amazing.

Wow!!!! We have just eaten the best fish pieces and new potato chips ever!!!😋😋 we bought from our usual chippy in Lowestoft, which I travel for because they are so good but these beat them and just down the road.

I don’t write bad reviews, however, this warranted a bad review. Ordered a large cod which was soggy and dripping with oil, to the point the oil was running onto everything else. Chips weren’t all that great and the sausages my daughter had ended up going in the bin because they were burnt. We had also ordered 2 curry sauces which we never received. Me and my young daughter had went to this chip shop once before and she had experienced the young girls serving us actually being rather rude to another customer. It was at this point we knew we wasn’t going to come back. Tonight, I thought I’d give them the benefit of the doubt, but never again. Such a waste of £30 including £3 for curry sauce which we never had. The only reason this review is getting one star, is because I have to in order to write the review. I would recommend going to the Beccles Fish and Chip Bar on Smallgate. Unless it’s Sunday, then just get a superfry and save your fish and chip cravings for when a decent fish and chip shop is open.

Had fish and chips here today friday 6 th august. I had large cod, it was a decent size, batter was very crispy, too hard really and the fish was completely dried up inside ,the batter ,and was chewy it looked lovely but in fact was inedible. Itwas skinless which doesn't help if i had known i would not have ordered it. Such a shame, i couldnt take it back because we had driven away from area. The service was very good and efficient it was well wrapped and the chips were good.but a waste of money because we couldn't eat the fish, such a shame

A popular place it seems, as we had to wait a while as there were lots of telephone orders. Would use this again.

Fantastic fish and chips! Battered sausages from the local butcher also delicious! The chips are cooked in the traditional way with loads of flavour. The option to add crispy scraps to the fish and chips also a really nice touch. Ordered via the website which was quick and easy! And great covid management in place with markers where to stand outside and buzzers to tell you your foods ready. Friendly service too!

Nice fish and chips if you like it cooked in Duck fat and Beef dripping, like all the Chip shops in Beccles.

Thought we would have a change to Sunday tea not had Fish and Chips from Cod House this Lockdown wish we hadnt bothered one of the first in the queue 4.35pm ordered 2 Large cod 5 sausages and 3x large Chips the Cod was over cooked over battered and very dry most went in the bin we have been using Cod House for many years never ever had a piece of fish like it always praised it and recommended it to family and friends i may have to rethink wether to use this place again was so looking forward to it

My husband and I visited your fish and chip shop on Saturday 27th and must say we were really disappointed as we had a measley piece of fish covered in lots of batter and chips were rather dry.

Had fish chips Sat must be the best in Norfolk no skin no bones chips delicious not cheap but a must

Every thing is cooked to order staff always polite and very efficient. Owner is very grumpy always a sullen face. I said in joke to serving girl “ I’m sure I just saw him smile “ no she replied I think it’s wind 😂

Really simple and smooth ordering and a discount for opening an account. Then, some tasty cod and a generous portion of chips ready on time for collection and piping hot. Showing take away retail how it should be done. Thanks!

Pre order due to lockdown, clearly following safe guidelines, fish and chips are excellent. Would highly recommend.

Very well cooked food, pleasent staff, fast prepared! Only downside is the miserable owner/chef. You'd think he would be happy about the busy stream of customers, but he never smiles and gets grumpy when people order large amounts 😁

The fish is always lovely and fresh and NOT overbattered (like the shop in town) and the chips are good. The staff are efficient and friendly.

haven't visited here for a.number of years as used to be terrible but now always seems busy i see why now really great fish and chips all cooked fresh you won't be disappointed

Excellent takeaway food for 6 people - mixture of haddock, cod, plaice and chicken goujons - all fresh and delicious. Lovely chips. Decent portion sizes. Good value. Would certainly go again.

Visited this fish and chip shop on Wednesday. We had cod and chips and it was lovely. Huge portion and very tasty. Friendly staff and very busy. Will be back

Good overall Fish & Chip shop. Food tastes very nice and not to much fat on the chips. Would recommend.

All fish is coolked to order. Really fresh. Great chips. Good portions. Friendly staff. This is the best chip shop in beccles.

You might reasonably expect to be able to walk into a chip shop and buy some chips. Not here though. You will see the customers all standing around as nothing is served straight away, even a bag of chips.The staff are also standing there, waiting , waiting, for the fryers to cook the food.Walk in and order a bag of chips, get given a number and you are at the back of the queue even though they have chips sitting there and are waiting, waiting for fish and other exotic menu items to cook (why would they be ready?) before your turn in the queue.If you want a quick meal, cook it yourself.

Tried this place for the first time on Friday. A reasonable wait for the fish to be cooked then a short 150 metre walk home. Whilst unwrapping the fish and chips I felt something drizzling on my foot? Pure grease running out of the wrapping which was very off putting. My partners fish was ok but mine was still cold on the inside which made it un-edible! So we shared just one portion of fish and chips between us but left most of it. 0 out of 10 for £14

This was just around the corner from were we where staying.Popped in, ordered then waited for the fish to be cooked fresh, some customers went away & came back to collect, also orders were taken over the phone while I waited for mine.We enjoyed our food from here & next time were in Beccles would happily return for another supper of fish & chips.

Having tried other fish and chip outlets in the area I can honestly say that this is far and away the best that can be had. Generous portion and beautifully cooked. From the miment you enter you are met with a smile and very friendly and efficient staff on the till. The batter is old fashioned light and crisp and the chips are cooked well. Ond school mushy peas adds the finishing touches. Don't think of going anywhere else in Beccles.

We had fish and chips from here, taken back to the Yacht Station. Great value, fab food and close enough to the marina to get them back hot! Recommended!

So few fish and chip shops these days turn out top notch fish and chips. So we were very impressed when our medium cod and medium haddock and chips were so fabulous. The cod was very nicely cooked and the chips were freshly cooked and golden. The haddock was cooked to perfection, no really, just cooked like in a proper restaurant!!! Fabulous job. Well done!

Very surprised to unwrap my fish and chips when I got home to find that the portions are now much smaller. Fish was good, but I do like value for money.

Having walked 45 minutes to this fish and chip shop I was highly disappointed to be told they were not going to cook anymore chips even though they were open for another 45 minutes!! Will not be wasting my time again!!

We pop in once every few weeks - best fish and chips in beccles. Lovely staff, piping hot food and just the best.

Traditional fish & chips. Service excellent as they give you a numbered receipt for your order. You know where you stand in the queue!! friendly staff, very clean public area.

We collected 2 take out fish and chip meals. They were freshly cooked and survived the journey back to our cottage. The meals were still hot when we sat down to eat, although the chip portions were large, we should have ordered the small portions.

We always use the cod house, never been let down. Good price too. We like the cod bites and so does our son! Yum yum yum!

The cod is beautiful and not thick in batter and tastes very fresh - the staff are wonderful and efficient.

Ordered large haddock and small cod, only to get home to find two lots of chips and no haddock. Young staff too busy sorting out their night out, no wonder my order was messed up.

We are lucky enough to have this within 3 mins walk from our house. Staff are lovely, portions are huge...food tastes great! You are pushing it at a medium sized portion and I would challenge anyone to finish a large portion. Clean and friendly.

Este fish and chips estaba cerca de la casa nos habíamos alojado en y nos dijeron que era muy bueno, así que decidí probar una noche y realmente fue excelente, el pescado cocinado a la perfección uno de los mejores pescados que he tenido.

Realmente disfrutamos de nuestra comida. El precio era muy razonable y un sabor delicioso. Se lo recomendaría a cualquiera.

La comida fabulosa y servicio de uno de los mejores pescados y patatas fritas! Muy sabroso! . . . El personal era servicial y encantador, especialmente Lauren! Recomendaría

El mejor fish n chips alrededor. . Desde Great Yarmouth al Aldeburgh, hemos vivido aquí durante 13 años, así que he probado la mayoría.

In April I wrote that you'll want to come back. It goes too far to say that we travel all the way from France to get fish and chips here but it's definitely one of the first meals we have when we get to Beccles. Everything is still delicious. Very, very fresh and generous portions. Definitely one of the best fish and chips outlets we know.

Staff very friendly and helpful. Food cooked to order and of excellent quality.Well wrapped for the walk back to the key.

Lovely food well cooked was busy whn we arrived but they tried to be as quick as possible.Nice and clean and friendly staff.Just what the doctor ordered after travelling on the broads for a few days! Nothing fishy about these!

The chips here were some of the best I have had - Ever ! I had Chicken and mushroom pie and mushy peas too. Loads of chips so we only had one between us. Mushy peas not as good but still okay. Staff were excellent too, Worth walking to (not much parking round there)

excellent fish and chips fried to perfection and lively girls more than make up for serious boss. This is the best fish and chips in the area, by a country mile

Always good food and friendly staff. Recently catered for 60 for a party in the nearby public hall and fish and chips arrived tasty and hot.

I visit Beccles Cod House in Ravensmere with my mum every Friday. When we've shopped she treats me to fish and chips. . . the tastiest I have eaten anywhere, also the shop is so clean, the staff very helpful, prices clearly displayed and very reasonable and portions very generous! it's the highlight of our day :-) yum yum!

Good portions, fish was lovely, fresh perfect batter, chips with new potatoes were lovely. Battered sausage good quality and tasty. Quick friendly service.

Away from the hustle and bustle of town we often drove past this chippie - but got to say it sells yummy chips ! And my hubby loved the fish ! I always go for a battered sausage and there cooked perfectly and don't fast like cheap sausages either ! This is now our regular chippy ! X

Lovely fish. Very fresh, light batter, well cooked. Old fashioned chips. The large cod is very large indeed. Enormous portion of chips. Friendly service. Very clean.

A great fish and chip shop. Seems to be open most of the time. Portion sizes are good and everything always has that fresh cooked taste. As close to seaside chips as you can get in land! Will take advanced orders and is very reasonable on large group orders.
