Seafare in Epsom and Ewell

All the food arrived cold So disappointed!!!!!!☹️ Review says 100 characters! Fish cold, chips cold, mushy peas cold, cod roe, cold, chips cold! Sort it out not acceptable I should have a refund, ordered a pizza instead and threw your food away!!

Hands down the Best fish and chip shop around!! Amazing food and lovely staff, they never fail to serve the best food! Fish is always tasty and fresh!

Rude female who called herself the “manager” who answered the phone yelled abuse at my mother after asking where our missing items were. This is the 3rd time items have been missing from our collect orders. Definatly not ordering again from these rude wnkers.

Fantastic take away. The fish was tasty and the batter not too greasy, which is what puts me off other chip shops. Very pleasant staff and reasonabley priced. Will definetly be returning.

Fish was tasteless! Butter was overcooked but fish inside was only boiled. Very bad, £30 for 2 fish. No free mayonnaise you have to pay extra. Overpriced and zero taste. I left more than half of my portion as it was so u pleasant to eat.

We have been getting our fish and chips from here for a while now and it's consistently very good. Great portion sizes and friendly team. Thanks!

Have been there twice now, the first time wasn't that good but we gave the place a second chance!! Average chips, scampi was not that great and sausages in batter were very ordinary, yet the staff wear " best around" lol To top it up, its not even value for money!!!!

Great fish and chips, impressive portions, fresh, hot, polite and swift service (just over 10 minutes wait)

Kingfish is a great fish and chip shop it is quick to arrive. It is also good because they do it fresh.

So good. Lovely people who work there, always smiling. Food is great, best fish and chip shop chips I’ve had. ……………………..

Have been here many times over last couple of years and it has remained consistently good, with large portions of fish and chips (even when ordering a small it is still a good size portion). During pandemic many other shops disappointed, especially Superf*sh in Ashtead and other local competitors whose quality decreased noticeably. I now drive over to this restaurant even though it's 20 minutes away as it is the best by far.

OK, so you have to wait a while, but that because the fish is all cooked to order so you know it's going to be fresh. And the chips are lovely and crispy too.

Stopped off to get meals for my family to take away, got home and a pie was missing, tried to call but after 6 attempts no one answering the phone so someone had to go without. Not impressed and they owe me money.

I ordered 2 x fish bites and chips and 1x cod and chips which is my usual order. Last Friday it was delivered and instead of fish bites it was a piece of cod chopped up in the box! It’s looked gross! Cod is also cheaper than fish bites! Extremely disappointed.

Unfortunately I found myself having to walk out after having to tell staff they should be wearing face masks when preparing and serving food. In my opinion tge owners are not taking the pandemic seriously enough and arguing with customers doesn't help. If you claim your exempt from wearing a face mask then something is medically wrong with you and you are at a higher risk if you contract Covid. Stay home don't serve food and potentially put your life at risk and that of others. Nobody wants to see someone breathing directly over their food whilst the shop is filling up with customers and no action is taken to restrict numbers. No ventilation and no restrictions makes you wonder just how clean this place is

I ordered a large meal for our family with large cods, sausages. saveloys,chips etc. It was the best fish and chips I've had for a few years. The whole family commented on how great it was.

Honestly one of the best fish & chips we’ve had, the cod was so fresh & crispy and so were the chips! Waiting times were decent id suggest to pre order to avoid wait. Overall amazing service would definitely recommend! :)

This simple fish and chip restaurant is first class. All fish is cooked to order. We have eaten the haddock several times and it is always fresh and moist. The batter is crisp and light. Chips can be excellent, although occasionally not quite cooked through. Mushy peas are good. Portions are large. They now accept card payment. Takeaway only at present. Recommended.

We bought three boxes of large chips today (phoned through to order). They were superb, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, spot on tasty! We will definitely be back for more.

Couldn’t fault the fish and chips at Kingfish. Crispy batter and not greasy. Still very hot when we got home. Can definitely recommend.

We often use this take away as they are busy and cook the fish fresh but tonight both portions of Cod were dry and the batter very thick, will give a swerve for a while.

Great local fish n chip takeaway and few tables. Cash only but ATM is outside the neighbouring Tesco express. Surprisingly offer gluten-free battered fish each and every days. Only found out recently. GF batter is crispy, nicely seasoned and chips ae good. Portions are big. Thoroughly recommended for normal and gluten-free fish n chip fans

My wife has a serious gluten intolerance, so finding a chip shop that can do a gluten free option all the time (not just when they change the oil) has enabled us to have fish and chips regularly again. Taking off a star because they only take cash - a weird situation in 2019

This person>>>> ( Scipio4fricanus ) <<<<is lying we was there on that time the voucher he got was on March they give him for 4 weeks and he came end of October he was so rude to workers this shop is best in town and they so nice to costumer don’t listen to this person>>> ( Scipio4fricanus ) <<<< you can ask shop owner what happened on that time

I cannot comment on the food but we won a vouchers for a single meal at King Fish in a local raffle. When my son tried to redeem the voucher he was told it had expired. However, the voucher had no expiry date on it. I will obviously never visit King Fish again. Their effort to support the local community have been wasted. If the voucher expires put that on the voucher!

Been going here once a week for last few months. Consistently great cod and chips. Best around for miles. Good hygiene score. Friendly staff bring it out to your car if you wait outside in car park. Very happy customer.

The chips have gone down hill along wiv the quality of the fish, the cod used to be immense at this place now it looks a sorry bit of fish, ok place but it used to be the place to go. And always made a effort to go there even low it’s not my local, but will be giving it a miss now

I have not been into the shop for a while and entering noticed a few improvements. Decent seats and a few tables if you wish to eat there, a clear menu and price board and 2 smiling people waiting to take my order.I order haddock and chips and was amazed at the size of the portion when I opened the box at home. The haddock was perfectly cooked, fresh and the batter crispy.Excellent and I will be back soon

All bad reviews since the new owner took over. No surprises there. Horrible food with hairs. Was a fave... Neverrrrr again

What has happened to this restaurant? Since changing from Seafare to Kingfish it’s gone down hill massively. Rude staff and manager. Horrible greasy food small portions and bad service. Do not visit

From the first time we used the original establishment (Seafare) we were hooked &amp; would drive there, rather than use our original place around the corner from home. We weren't at Seafare every week but we did go a lot &amp; the food was ALWAYS excellent. I noticed new uniforms &amp; different staff tonight but put this down to shifts at a busy takeaway, but when I got the food home, I wasn't too happy about the look of the chips, some of which were shrivelled &amp; damp feeling - almost as if they'd been heated in a microwave. These were overcooked while others looked slightly undercooked, as if they were from two different batches, despite the place being really busy at 19:30 on a Friday night so I would have expected everything to be fresh out of the fryer. None were even slightly crispy &amp; the shrivelled ones didn't have a good flavour. The fish looked huge but the back end turned out to be just batter over fish skin. The fish was overcooked &amp; rather dry. I left my chips, my partner left the fish. What a shame as it was also a lot more expensive than we'd expected! At Seafare it was £6.20 a portion. Kingfish charges £8.20 for something not nearly as tasty or well cooked. We won't be returning.

Good was average service was all over the place! No one knew what they were doing!!! Such a shame as I used to love seafare!

Had cod and chips, when I order chips I expect chips and not loads of scraps. Fish was OK but batter was not crispy and did not "snap" when cut, it was rather soggy. Burger was hard, dry and resembled a frisbee, it was that hard. A waste of money and did not live up to the reputation. There is another fish and chip shop which also begins with a "S" which is far better and worth the extra journey. We won't be using Seafare in Hortoni Epsom again.

One of the worst portions of fish and chips. Fish was extremely chewy. Chips greasy and taste of oil. Savaloy was disgusting. Even worse after a long wait to get them.

This place sells great fish and chips. Shame they don't pre cook anything ever. Would have thought this is safe at dinner time. Pity they don't take cards. think you will need to step up with a PDQ soon chaps. That said, we put up with it and drive past several alternatives for the best product.

Popped in for some chips yesterday as in the area and was much tastier than my local chippys. Took a little while but definitely cooked fresh and that’s what counts. Huge portions too lol Friendly staff.

Lovely fish and chips, always very fresh, lovely and very hot. What more can anyone want. Would recommend.,

As per the title - the food is nice enough though a little on the pricey side, but it’s the service that’s just simply too slow. I have at times waited 15 minutes for a bag of chips due to their fairly unique queuing system. If someone comes in for a battered sausage and chips which is already cooked (seen in the cabinet), why make them wait for everyone else to have their fish cooked to order before serving up someone who just wants something quick and that’s already cooked. Seems strange to me (and others). They are very swift to take cash only (hello tax man...) and appear extremely busy (and sweaty) behind the counter but rarely does paid for food appear and certainly not anywhere nearly as quickly as your hard earned is ripped from your grip as soon as you step foot in the door. Hello, on a Friday and Saturday evening - it’s fairly safe to assume that you will sell fish and chips... and quickly. So why not cook a little ahead of time in peak times... look at this chap (pic), he was 29 years old when he walked in and he’s still waited his Cod & Chips.

I normally treat my partner and myself to fish and chips from the Seafare after our Tuesday visit to David Lloyds Gym. Just called in and as always the guys are polite and very friendly. We have just had the best Haddock and chips that we have ever had. The fish could not have been any fresher. The chips were excellent, crispy and dry not swimming in oil. I can not recommend the Seafare high enough. Also the price is very good. Looking forward to next Tuesday

Just got fish and chips for my Mum . Child’s portion as she is a small eater. Very nice fish and chips will definitely re visit again. Staff very helpful 😊

Best fish and chips in Epsom. Always busy and in an ideal location for all the houses around Horton.

Lovely fish and chips at a reasonable price . Standard has improved over past couple of years. Where we used to avoid this takeaway - now if nearby we make a B - line for it

Plenty to choose from, as long as you get there early if visiting in the evening. Can be a bit pricey if you have a big family to feed. Fish & chips used to be an economical meal but not so much any more. Food stays hot and wrapped well, portions a reasonable size but needs to be for the price.

First of all the food hygiene sticker on the front door is out of date they have had an inspection since this certificate and only received 3 star rating the one of the door says 4 stars very misleading to all customers we use this chip

Was passing by and thought would try the fish and chips for tea the best I've tasted for many years freshly cooked reasononably priced friendly service will go again Fish very tasty chips cooked to perfection Well done guys

Es un lugar conveniente para recoger comida para llevar, ya que no hay aparcamiento, así como el pequeño, etc. comprar en tescos mientras espera su comida casera recién hecho para ti. No estoy seguro de cuánto más caro sus precios, pero la porción de eglefino y patatas fritas que había sido recientemente fue muy generoso y el sabor era genial. El personal es educado y lleno pero lo suficientemente amable. Excelente en todos los aspectos.

Usually I get the very nice eat-in F&C; served in a takeaway box (always with a slice of lemon and tartar sauce), today my food was plated and with a salad too - very impressed! Well worth a visit ☺

Have used this chippy since it opened Wont be going again The portions of fish were unbelievable More like fish fingers Greedy!!!

Excelente bacalao y patatas fritas, fresco a la orden. Absolutamente DELICIOSA! El personal siempre es cortés y amable. Tienen unas pocas mesas y sillas para comer, si lo desea. Tesco Express es una práctica a unos pocos pasos de distancia.

Really nice freshly cooked fish and chips - if that's what you're after, this is the place.Take away only unfortunately

When I moved to this area and saw the length of the queue, I knew it must be an excellent fish &amp; chip shop. Everything is cooked fresh, good range on offer, grandkids ask if they can come over if we are going for takeaway from there.

It's gone downhill since new management. Crap service, rubbish chips and they try and fob you of with the smallest piece of fish and have the cheek to call it a 'large'!Was a regular but never going back.. sorry.

Really good and great price, so easy for a nice, cheap meal! Battered sausage and chips especially tasty.

I felt sorry for the staff member who apologised profusely for running out of chips after a surge in customers on a normally quiet Monday. He looked shattered and said they were short staffed and surprised by the demand. I appreciated his honesty...stuff happens.... He cooked us our fish to order, as usual, and it was delicious. I was surprised to see the poor reviews from the last few reviewers and I hadn't been aware of a change of ownership recently. Perhaps we've been lucky, I've always found the chips just as I like them, slightly soggy, and the fish beautifully cooked. Pity about the chips tonight though, on the other hand, better for my waistline without.

The Worst Fish'n Chips We've Ever Had!Just had a second successive terrible meal from Seafare. COD rock hard, fish inside dry and shrunken. Chips Burnt OIL needs a change.. but then it takes a lot to cock chips up, doesn't it? It also took an unbelievable 35 minutes to complete the order and they weren't even busy. Only eight other customers! We have used Seafare for over three years and have previously been very satisfied and recommended them. However with this second poor experience, we shall not be returning or recommending them

If you like fish that isn't swimming with oil in soggy batter and chips that aren't all floppy and drenched in oil then this is the fish and chips for you! Crispy chips with a fluffy inside and a lovely crisp batter with soft flaky fish. In my opinion it's the prefect fish and chips! Usually don't like fish and chips because of the oil content always leads to a stomach ache but not with these fish and chips. Really good to have found a great local place! Always seems busy too which says it all

This place has the crispiest chips with a lovely fluffy inside. The king bites are brilliant value for money and really tasty. Avoid burgers and chicken but everything else is a million times better than your average chippie hence why you will have to wait.

What a disappointment! This place used to be really good, but now:-Long wait times-Overcooked chips-Scampi that came with all the 'crispy bits' from the bottom of the fryerHopefully they'll bring back the good standards that we had before.

Used to be great but has deteriorated with the new owners. Smaller portions, long wait, more expensive and not the best fish and chips. Have changed loyalty to Plaice to Eat which is superb.

We have used Seafare a number of times and is often very busy on a Friday night but again tonight the Cod is a small portion and the chips are over cooked. Avoid until it improves as even with our smaller portions Cod and chips there was a fair amount left which is unusual and all 4 of us were disappointed!

This fish and chips is a bit out if town but it does not really matter if you would like to enjoy really fresh fish and AMAZING chips for an affordable price.So popular in the area that you may have to queue for 15mn but again it is really worth the wait.

Fresh cooked and great value fish and chips served just the way they should be, we have used Seafare on many occasions and have yet to have even a question to quality or value for money. Well worth keeping an eye in the local papers for offers and vouchers

I love to come to this place because the food, my favourite is the cod, is so fresh and tasty. I do recommend coming to this place .

Reasonably priced good standard of fish and chips, etc with friendly service and they open on Sundays!
