Best Fish and Chips around for miles

It's a takeaway chippy , and not bad at that !

Booked on line and collected without a problem. Fish and chips were perfectly cooked. Very nice 👌 highly recommend.

Best fish and chips in the area. The fish is always exceptional.

Absolute rubbish, over 30 minutes wait for a portion of chips which turned out to be under cooked and inedible, Don't Waste your money.

Very disappointed, was told over half an hour wait just for chips as they had a big order,, so obviously online orders are more important than actually making the effort of actually going in the shop, won't be making that mistake again.

Very good fish and chips...never done online order for fish and chips before from here as we're not local..but it was very easy and all on time .thankyou

Perfect cod and chips cooked to order.

Very impressed with the fish and chips. First time ordering since moving into the area. Heard good things about it. Not disappointed. Excellent fish. Batter so NOT greasy and heavy at all. Light and crispy. Chips excellent. Crispy and golden. Well done!!!

Unfortunate start as the collect service misfired. However despite the food being in the warmer for 10 mins the it was still hot when we got it home after another 5 mins.The fish was superbly cooked and very tasty, and my wife’s scampi was good too. The portions are still large and one portion of chips is enough for 2 and possibly 3.

A Suffolk hidden gem! Highly recommend. Our favourite fish & chips in the area. The fish is so fresh and delicious. Chips with their curry sauce is always a winner too.

Loved the online ordering. Very easy. Fish well cooked but small for so called large. Plenty of chips but a little cool. Wife had fish cakes that were great.

I am a chef of 27 years and I rate the chips as top tier, the battered sausage was epic flavour and texture. I will only eat from here now!!!

Easy to use pre-order service Fish was fresh. cooked in a golden batter. Chips were nice, too good portions

I would advise using ordering on the internet to avoid a possible queue. Quality far far better than that offered in nearby Aldeburgh. Last time I ordered there with some friends from America we had to leave virtually all the fish as it was full of bones. We were shown that the menu stated 'may be bones' but we've had less in kippers! Try both for yourself and speak as you find.

Where to start. Very small portion of cod, even though medium was ordered (x2). Batter was hard, hardly any fish, chips were hard. A waste of money

What a fantastic chip shop, staff great, very clean shop and food wow lovely bit of cod and chips not greasy at all went down a treat...would certainly recommend this chip shop for food any day... shame I don't live 100 miles east it would be my go to for fish and chips.

Once a good chippy but not anymore. Looks like it has not recovered from Covid. Disorganised and untrained staff. Lack of organisation in the queue.

Good fish and chips! Shame they got my pre order over the phone wrong but I guess we all make mistakes……..

This chip shop should win a global award. The chips are the best I have ever tried and the freshest line caught fish is second to none. The batter is so good I even eat the skin,and we don't normally do that do we. The best by a country mile, don't que in Aldeburgh for OK fish and chips go to seahawks. Best by far

Great fish and chips, freshly cooked to order. Highly recommended

Great place to get fish and chips to eat on the beach at Sizewell. Line caught cod, great chips. All cooked to order. Delicious

Visited twice in a few weeks just after 7 to be told they're either not taking anymore orders or they're out of chips?? I wouldn't mind, but they weren't polite about it and acted like I was the crazy one walking into a chippy on a Friday evening and expecting chips!! Won't bother again.

Great food at a brilliant price. Easy to order on click and collect, cod, chips, mushy peas, and curry sauce ordered for 5 people, and it was fantastic. Highly recommended.

Fancied trying there and was lovely, the staff were lovely and the food was piping hot. Would recommend

First visit to Seahawks. Really lovely fish & chips and kept hot even on the journey home. Friendly staff and reasonably priced.

I have now used Seahawk’s preorder service twice when catering for large family parties. The service has been excellent and the quality of the food top notch. Hot, fresh, delicious and on time. Thank you guys for stress free dining !

Great fish and chips as always definitely recommend just cannot fault them great price as well💯⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We preordered our fish and chips and they were ready on time for collection. The portions were a good size and everything was well cooked. The kids had chicken nuggets and the adults had fish which was excellent. All in all very good!

Fantastic fish and chips smells of the sea fantastic

Cooked fresh while you wait. Probably if not the best fish and chips I've had

Really nice sausage n chips,portion size a little small for me,no choice of large just one size,and only cook when you order which means waiting...which I won't do again I will go elsewhere,u can preorder online tho which I highly recommend as 20 mins feels like forever

Such a shame . This used to be the best fish and chips for miles around but things changed very rapidly and the last time we got them they ended up in the bin . Chips had been re heated and the fish was tough and chewy . Also a long lasting claggy film left in our mouths .

Tasty flaky cod, lovely crispy chips accompanied with mushy peas. Can order online or in person and did ours online and they were bang on time. Staff friendly. Always happy to return.

Don't normally eat all my chips but they were nice. Slightly crispy just the way I like them. Portion just right for one and the boxes quality environmentally friendly and not flimsy. Will add something with my chips next time and review again. Not perfect but not far off, but who is and what is when is see some of these comments. Nice chips

Ordered a take away after being recommended to do so by a local person. Everything was ok but not as good as we were told. The fish was a bit on the small side. Would I go again yes.

Great fish. Told us how long it would when we ordered and they were spot on!

The best blooming fish n chips EVER .all my family come snd must have from here when they visit ,so scrummy

Top notch fish and chips . Much better than our two locals in Aldeburgh . We use Seahawks on a regular basis . Never been disappointed. Excellent.

Prompt click n collect. Good fish chips. Green packaging.

The online ordering site is an excellent way to beat waiting. The quality is always excellent and good size portions.

Good selection of fish and different burgers, also mini meals for kids

I was in Leiston and thought I'd get a quick lunch as I was travelling and saw the chip shop was open. I knew I should have turned away when i was met a curt unfriendly service from ordering, waiting 30 mins and receiving my food through the hatch of a window in a bolshy couldn't care attitude. I didn't think a chippy could mess up a simple order of sausage and chips but how wrong was I......!

Restricted menu and if you don't like your food battered you will need to look elsewhere.

Lovely fish and chips for lunch with Mum

I really enjoyed the food. It was very nice I'll always go there whenever I'm around

Always nice fish and chips from here.

Cooked to order and always delicious.Much better than the overrated fish & chip shops in Aldeburgh

Not allowed inside which is not good if raining. Took 40 mins after order placed. Card payment or exact cash only. No vegetarian choice and cannot see it mentioned on website ( it really should)

Delicious as always and pre ordering continues to work well even now they are having walk ins. Tasted even better eaten by the sea at Sizewell with the sun shining!

Ordered via the website using click n collect on Saturday evening. What a brilliant service, choose a time to collect, order what you'd like to eat adding special instructions if required, pay by card. Turned up at alloted time and collected our order. Absolutely gorgeous food hot and fresh Will be using this service again

Couldn't agree more with Tim Chambers about the service at this place. It is a huge shame because, as everyone states, although not cheap the fish and chips from this establishment are superb. I would not however call here again especially if it was cold and wet. In late May 2022 there remains what can only be described as a phobic attitude towards COVID at Seahawks. As a result both doors are barricaded and customers are forced to stand on the pavement whilst their order is being prepared. As everything is cooked to order this can result in a typical wait time of 20 minutes. Not for me in the pouring rain. If a customer requests an "eat now" (open & unwrapped) order no access is provided to salt and vinegar. On a very personal note my own special application of salt & vinegar to my fish & chips hugely enhances the enjoyment. Having it added for me by a shop assistant is never the same. Lastly I was told that I could not pay by cash. Luckily I had my debit card with me, which is not always the case. Alienating the customer is not good business practise.

Given we are surrounded by fish and have some of the finest potato growing conditions in the world, its amazing how many fish and chip shops disappoint, especially for the prices charged. The days of this being a cheap meal are long gone but this place is no more expensive than some of the less worthy . But what a difference, superb fish with a light batter and great chips. Only a visitor to the town but certainly a major positive factor if considering moving there.

Flaky cod, crispy batter and great chips. Ordering online and pick up is easy. This is our go to 'fish and chips' place and as such will definitely be back!

Lovely food. Brilliant online ordering system!

We bought fish and chips to eat on the beach at Sizewell. Lovely meal. The chips were especially nice. Would definitely make a return visit.

The best battered sausage and chips we have ever tasted! Freshly cooked and great value. Thank you for making our day :-)

Terrible service order online and wait another 20 minutes after collection time only to be told you need to say you've arrived for them to cook your food, surely they cook it for the time you ordered it for ?? When I got it home the order was missing 2 items !! What we got tasted ok !!

Been going here for years and the food is top notch, more than reasonable staff and fantastic service and staff. As my dietary requirements have changed over the years my only suggestion would be to have some (or even one) vege options for mains. However that’s not put me off yet, would just be more convenient!

I called last Saturday evening, no answer. I then drove to the restaurant. I was made to feel like someone with a virus. They have a door for your order where someone takes your order. You then wait for 15 minutes in the cold. He...

Never been passed my fish and chips via a broom on a table before! Felt there must be another reason than normal Covid precautions Not very friendly Chips tasted as I felt oil needed changing but it was near the end of the evening Will...

This has become our 'go to' when in the area. Online ordering/payment generally works well and never have to wait long for food. Friendly and amenable service. Fish is flaky with crispy batter and yummy chips...plenty of crispy ones and good mushy peas. Its nice...

Good ol fish and chips. Need collection service needs work

Visited yesterday, no communication about length of time for waiting 30 minutes, or that pre-orders were dealt with first 4 people to the same order! This was meant as treat to someone as a key worker. Staff not wearing appropriate PPE and when trying to speak to someone was partially ignored.

Tried to ring through an order but nobody answered the phone so took pot luck and just turned up to be ignored for several minutes. Then to be told I would have to wait 35 minutes! 6 teenagers running the shop not very efficiently. So...

As good as Aldeburgh (if not better) without the queues :) Especially a fan of the battered butchers sausages.

Went there about a week ago as was passing, waited for ages for someone to come and take my order, they saw me waiting to busy chatting amongst themselves. Finally someone came and asked for my order and was told could not do anything for...

Really poor food and awful customer service. Definitely worth the drive and long queues at Aldeburgh instead.

Order and pay online collect at nominated time.

A very reliable level of service and always good food. I especially enjoy that you can order through their website

Nice good fish and chips Good polite survive.

Excellent online order service, easy collection and of course absolutely beautiful fish and chips.....

Order and collection safe, efficient and pleasant..used online ordering. Had medium cod and chips each and very generous but not overwhelming portions. Yummy mushy peas and very good selection of soft drinks. Fish was beautifully flaky and batter crisp and chips tasty and many were...

Online only or phone before 2pm so you need to plan ahead for this takeaway. After unexpectedly working overtime and hence doing a 12 hour shift on a hot day and finding the other fish and chip shop had a huge queue my partner went to this one on his way home as he was hungry. Staff member came to the door and said sorry we are fully booked with online orders. Sign of the times that a hard working hungry man can't go to a chip shop and buy a portion of chips without a smartphone.

How do you actually order from these people ? You call up no one answers the phone ….. you look online and it says open ! If for some reason you have to order online why do they not simply answer the phone and say “ we only take online bookings “. Or maybe a answerphone service ! Been trying for 45 mins enough is enough …..

Went to the fish shop for "large cod and chips twice" on a Thursday lunchtime. Card payment only (Covid-19 rules). Ordered at one door, picked up the food at the other. It took me 10 minutes from ordering to walking away with my freshly-cooked F&C,...

You have to order online, then you have to wait 45 minutes to only be able to order plaice...... If I'm going to have to wait 45 minutes for a bit of fish, at least give me some sort of choice?!

Always lovely fish and chips definitely recommend used to go to Aldeburgh not anymore always Seahawks

I had a cod and chips takeaway on Saturday and I have to say they were the best I have had, not only in Leiston but also the surrounding area. Service was brilliant, bang on time, nicely presented and good value. Very well done.

There are award winning chippy’s, and then there’s Seahawks! The very best fish and chips on the east coast (or even maybe slightly further afield). We happened by Seahawks some time ago and before COVID loved to sit at the counter and eat, but lately...

By far, the best fish and chip shop in the area. The food is exceptional every time.

We were blown away by Seahawks fish and chips...fish flaky and chips soooo crispy. Mushy peas were good. We sat eating them looking over the sea at Sizewell. They have an easy online ordering and payment system which generally works well (although on our previous...

Amazing food and service. So much better than Aldeburgh

Superb fish and chips. Very generous portions.Far superior than Aldeburgh. In my opinion.

Poor food and not great sizes for prices. Very expensive for what u get

Excellent and easy online ordering system, their website is clear and straightforward. Prompt service with my order being ready at the time it was booked for. Best fish and chips in the area. Thanks Seahawks.

Maybe the best fish and chips ever! Seahawks has an easy online ordering system with scheduled pick-up times - all works very smoothly. The prices are very fair and the fish and chips simply couldn't be better...

Popped in to there and found a clean place to get food. The fish and chips cooked while I waited. The fish was very tasty and the chips nice and fluffy inside. I would definitely get food from there again.

Excellent fish and chips. Really, im hyper critical of this our national dish. This was top draw. Some of the best in the country. High accolade. Thanks.

They offer an online ordering and scheduled pick up of their menu. We ordered scampi and chips, cod and chips and battered sausage. Excellent food but we were disappointed twice in not receiving a complete order. Recommend that everyone check the order before you leave...

4 of us enjoyed the best fish and chips - we all agreed! Eaten on Sizewell beach at the end of a hot day with a can of shandy - perfect! Great ordering service with a timed slot for collection, thank you

These fish and chips are 100% better than Aldeburgh although I would not recommend the sausage I would highly recommend the fish and the staff are very friendly I bought my fish and chips to the beach and do a very very good service in the pandemic situation and is easy to phone up and order

Thanks guys, the perfect way to collect. Lovely crisp batter and quality white fish with perfect chips. Great end to a week in Aldborough. Fully recommend as per most of your reviews. I live in Christchurch bay New Forest. You match our best local fish chippies but the bonus is your great price point. Bosh! Sorted! Get-in!.

would just like to thank seahawks for my order, the chips, burger, sausage and curry sauce absolutely delicious . big thumbs up to the boys ...

Very Covid-secure. Friendly, obviously popular fish bar. Plaice and chips delicious and reasonably priced. Would recommend. They also appear to have an efficient online ordering service, which allows you to jump the queue outside.

Superbly efficient service. Online ordering was very simple and food was ready at the time we asked for and safely handed over. Well thought through interpretation of the Covid guidelines. The food itself was fabulous. Moist fish in great tasting batter and proper chip shop chips!

Visiting Aldeburgh for the day but swayed by other reviews to come here. User friendly online ordering. Helpful staff. Lovely fish and chips ( my partner had haddock and I had scampi ) and the ratio of fish to chips just right - some establishments dish out far too many chips, making the proportions all wrong

The food is always great from Seahawk’s and lockdown has not Made any difference. The new online service and social distancing arrangements work really well and I felt very safe. If I could give 10 stars I would. Keep up the good work!

We love coming to Seahawks the fish and chips never fail to always be delicious. I'd always recommend these over Aldeburgh they are the best around! Also, the way they have changed their procedures to cope with lockdown is great. Safest place we have felt to go anywhere to grab a takeaway. Thank you!

In our experience this is the best fish and chip shop in Suffolk. Better than those in Aldeburgh. Quality and service is second to none and it is good to see information regarding where the fish was caught and sustainability status. The restaurant is also very good (or it was before Covid closed it!)
