The owner is such a gentleman in this place. Other staff very pleasant too. Food is very nice hence why it's my favorite place in the town for a takeaway. They deserve good business as they are good people.

We were staying in the area and had heard such marvellous things about it, so rushed back from an event in Brighton on Sunday evening to catch it before it closed at the advertised time of 9pm. We were pleased to get there just before 8.40pm, only to find all the lights out, the door locked and the staff getting ready to leave. If you're going to close at 8.30pm, don't advertise that you are open until 9pm.

Just had our first taste from this fish n chip shop. Delicious! We had pie and fish and steaming hot chips and got given a taster of their southern fried chicken which was also very tasty, beats KFC any day. Great value as well and the service from all the team was excellent. We will be back again, thanks 😀

We love the food at Riverside, and everyone is really friendly. My wife is a Coeliac and needs to eat gluten free, so it’s heaven for us. We often have haddock and chips, the batter is really light and crispy, I would urge anyone to try it, you may find you prefer it. The gluten free menu is not limited to fish, the scampi is wonderful, absolutely lovely. So gluten free, or not, we highly recommend The Riverside Fish Bar.

Not sure what has happened to this place, but last night was appalling. Two large cod and chips and a curry sauce should not be that difficult, but it was. The curry sauce was cold; not just warm, but stone cold as in it had not been near any heat at all. But that was nothing. The fish were in separate boxes. Fortunately they were also in a bag and then in another bag I brought with me to keep them warm. When I got home, the two boxes were absolutely wet with oil. The carrier bag they were put in at the shop was wet through with oil and even the thermal bag I had brought with me was drenched with oil and had to be thrown away. How can they manage to not heat the curry sauce and leave so much oil/fat on the fish when wrap it? This was probably the worst experience I've had from this place and I won't be going back any time soon.

Popped in on a Friday lunchtime. Very impressed with the welcome. Ordered Large Cod and chips whilst my friend had Jumbo sausage X2 and large chips. The food was freshly cooked and terrific value. Large portions, crispy batter and fresh fish. The Chips are chunky and filling. My friend said the Sausage was good quality. First visit but will return. Highly recommended.

In short we live 10 miles away but would always use this chip shop if we were nearer. Highly recommended for food and service. Parking is free for two hours in the carpark on the other side of the road. We arrived around 13:00 on a Tuesday and had a short wait. All good apart from chips appears to be cooked to order. We had regular cod and chip x 2 plus two children's meals a sauge and chips and a chicken bites and chips, the kids meals included drinks. Total cost under 23 pounds! Considering we paid 25 pounds for two large cod and chips in Haywards Heath recently this 23 quid bill for 4 was a bargain! Chips were good, seemed cut larger which was nice and plenty of them for a regular portion. Cod was skin on, I actually like this as personally I find it adds to the flavour. Batter was good, crisp and not too thick. The fish batter was a little greasy but I believe this was caused by serving to us immediately so as to prevent waiting time rather then allowing to drain off for longer so no point in criticism there. Fish was lovely, flaky and tasty. The man serving was friendly and extremely helpful and concerned that the children got what they wanted. Forget Maccy D and KFC, shop local. A 5 star chippy. Well done we will be back!

Popped in today to get fish and chips for my mum in hospital in Uckfield who hasn’t been eating. I asked for a fish and chips but could I get a super small one but happy to pay full price. Rather than take my money for an adult fish and chips they offered me a child’s one for £5. Plenty of fish on it and more than enough chips. She absolutely loved it and went back for seconds. It looked delicious and chips tasted great (had to have a couple) Thank you

I have been getting fish and chips for me and my family here regularly for the last 6 months. Anyone who is coeliac will understand my joy at finding a reliable, good quality Gluten Free chippy and this is certainly one of them. The staff couldn't be more friendly and are happy to take my phone order and have it ready 20 mins later, freshly cooked and delicious. The batter is so good, my other, non GF family members have it too.

The Riverside has always had great food but it has improved even more as it now offers delicious GLUTEN FREE fish & chips. This is cooked to order & will take at least 20 minutes as it's in a separate fryer only used for gluten free food. You can phone an order in & come & collect it or place an order & wait inside (they have a couple of seats) or just do some window shopping in the high street & then collect it. We've always found the staff to be very friendly & helpful too. They checked the gluten free batter mix for us to confirm no gluten or any other thing that triggers our allergies. There are so few places in Uckfield that will offer gluten free & this is a real gem! The normal fish, scampi & sausages are tasty too & all of it is at a good price. Open Monday- Saturday, closed Sunday. Were closed due to Covid 19 but have reopened.

After a previous experience a year ago I thought lets give them a second chance as usual chippy was closed in high st. Dry , Luke warm , stringy chicken which was hard to eat. Once again took it back eventually got my money back after a lot of chit chat with a lady who said that's just the way we cook chicken. It honestly looked and tasted as if it had been warmed up from a previous days Cook. Won't be going back anytime soon .

Worst ever. Been going for a few weeks now. Ordered 2 cod which turned out to already be cooked or should I say re heated and chips which were the dregs and cold. We were both unwell later in the evening and nxt day. I thank goodness the fish was so awful we only ate a small amount other wise I’m sure we would have been really ill. The fish had the worst taste ever, would never recommend or go again.

A well known place not just for fish and chips, but for chicken and pies etc. There is some seating, but guess most is takeaways. Prices can be a tad high, but the daily specials are good value especially pensioners deals.

Bought fish and chips x 2 to take away last night which had previously been cooked and in the heating compartment. Got home and served them up but they were inedible. The fish had dried up completely whilst the batter was not cooked properly. The chips, although home cooked had also dried up. Not satisfactory to serve up food like this. We won't be returning.

Cod 'n'. No es fácil de conseguir pero lo manejaron el lunes por la noche. Siempre me preocupe cuando mi chips vienen en una bandeja de poliestireno y este no fue la excepción. Las patatas fritas eran secos y duros. El bateador en el cod sabía un poco sin cocer y había un sabor de fondo de aceite viejo. Personal amable y se sirve en una bolsa de papel para detener el sudor.

Had a lunchtime special here of cod and chips and personally had some doubts about the genome of the fish though obviously I couldn't prove it? Either it wasn't cod or it had been poorly frozen because it was both mushy and tasteless. I've eaten here before so I know they can dIf your going to do a meal deal then at least let people know they're not buying the normal fair because it reflects badly on you when those same people want to buy from you at other times.

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.

Recommended by family member who has been many times before. We took a ride out from Dartford to Eastbourne and stopped off here to see for ourselves what the fish was like. We knew it was cash only so not a problem. We arrived when it opened at midday and placed our order and it was cooked to order and brought to our table. The entire meal served on a warm plate and food nice and hot too and served directly from the fryer. We had the cod which was cooked to perfection, with light crispy batter and flakes of white fish (no grey in sight like some other fish we have had elsewhere). Chips so nice, proper chip shop chips and all washed down with a nice cup of strong tea. If you’re in the area or out for a drive as we were, then definitely pay this place a visit. Nice warm and friendly welcome is waiting for you and some smashing fish and chips.
