Hands down THE BEST Chip Shop you'll find. The staff are always cheerful and chatty. The batter on the chicken strips and fish is absolutely outstanding. Everything is made/cooked freshly to order- but it is definitely worth the short wait as a result. We travel 45 minutes to shop in Newtown just so we can stop by here. You simply cannot beat it.

My husband and I made a last minute decision to go to the cinema and have fish and chips on the way. A quick google and we landed on The Silver Fish. When we arrived the queue was quite long (which I always think is a good sign!). It was cash only which we didnโt have but thereโs a NatWest and HSBC just a few strides away on the same side of the road. The slight delay to the cinema was well worth it. The chips were so fresh, fish lovely and crispy and for a bit of childhood nostalgia I had a fish cake. The staff were all exceptionally polite and very calm during a busy spell. To top it off it was wrapped in paper not put in a box. A real chippy experience!

Been using silver fish for over 15 yrs. 1st in Welshpool and since they opened in newtown. A fantastic family business that goes above and beyond. Always fresh.. if you want anything freshly cooked as you wait they will do so... I always prefer the friendliness here too. Thankyou... you always do a great job !

I nipped to this takeaway, having driven for 3hrs and checked into my accom before working a long shift the following day. The lovely person serving me was patient with my order, advised of the cost, and the portion size was excellent given the cost (ยฃ6.05!!! I felt like I'd ripped them off!). The food was lovely, didn't sit heavily and tasted excellent. If I ever visit Newtown again, I would not hesitate in ordering from here again.

Lovely chip shop lovely staff and today when we called the owner apologised for our wait ,but we weren't worried ,because fresh chips were cooking .I had jumbo sausage and chips the sausage was so tasty and not full of oil ,and the chips were very tasty too .My partner had mince beef and onion pie and chips ,Our meals were very well wrapped ,we had a few minutes walk back to our car and our meals were still piping hot and the chips don't end up sticking to the paper /The portions are a good size too . I normally have battered sausage and the batter is always nice and crispy . Great prices too .We travel to Newtown from Aberystwyth about once a month with our work and we always look forward to our meals from the Silver fish .

I have lived near Newtown for 20 years and remember this place first opening. It was dire; like so many chippies. I also wondered if the owners realised that the 'silverfish' is actually an unwelcome insect pest which likes to live around your skirting boards. However moving on the fish has improved - there are various grades available to chippies and they ratcheted up the quality - although they do cook in oil rather than the tastier beef dripping. Nonetheless food is cooked fresh and they do appear to be conscientious about filtering and replacing their oil unlike many other places. The portions are generous and the prices very competitive. The staff are very hard-working and deserve to do well. The other chippies in the area are frankly best avoided.

Not a lover of fish and chips as a rule . But if you are these are stunning . Capt Ahab look no further . .wouldn't like a fish the size you get in Silver fish on hook tasty pleasant staff . Centre of town . All in all superb..can only assume negative comments from local rival? . Eco warriors moaning about businesses trying to keep costs at minimum ASK for food in paper . And individuals with plum in mouth worried about mask wearing considering from different country , as England , was she aware that throughout flu virus? Wales and England differed almost continually on what rules were . And I do not think that posters are going to be up and down as had weekly changes. And the other complaint I noticed was silver fish land lord and landlady ehhh THAT says pub to me and everybody else with a higher than single digit IQ..I find it disturbing that people set out to complain if poor say so yes but , have been there dozen times and have been 100% happy each time far nicer than Genie..joke never ate there ๐

We pop in here every now and then to indulge in the guilty pleasure of a large tray of chips with curry sauce and two forks, to eat by the river! Hands up, I am not generally a fan of chip shop chips, too many memories of chips rendered soggy by being wrapped in newspaper!, but the chips here are well cooked, just a little crispy on the outside and piping hot and soft and creamy on the inside. There is an easy to understand 'one way' system for ordering to maintain social distancing; the staff are friendly and efficient and it works well. Definitely a cut above.

We ordered fish/sausage & chips from Silver Fish for our wedding evening party. They were absolutely fantastic! They arrived well wrapped and were piping hot! All our guests loved them and we have had loads of comments about how nice they were - just what everyone fancied after a few drinks. Maria has been a pleasure to work with from when I booked- she is responsive, friendly and keen to help. She even sorted out gluten free and vegetarian options. I cannot recommend highly enough. Brilliant!

Since the closure of Genie's Fish & Chip shop (undoubtedly the best the town ever had), we've used Silver Fish a few times but aren't overly impressed. While portion sizes and prices are good, we find the batter too thick and greasy, and the inside stodgy on each occasion. A lighter, thinner batter (more like a tepura), as Genie's was, would be a definite improvement, as would slightly longer cooking of the chips. I hope this review will be looked on as constructive criticism as it is not, in any way, meant to be destructive!

Small, family run fish & chip shop. Always looks spotlessly clean, prices are very reasonable and the portions substantial. The owner and his daughters are always very welcoming, polite and cheeful. Since covid-19, the shop has offered a pre-order and collect service and has implemented a good social distancing policy for their customers to follow. Service is fast, the food is consistently good and parking is rarely a problem in the evenings.

We come from the Midlands and were on our way back home when we stopped to get some fish and chips from here.... They were absolutely gorgeous and the fish was quite large, much larger than at chippys near us, the chips were lovely and chunky... My lad has autism and he is extremely picky with his food, he had the southern fried chicken with chips, he loved them.... He much preferred the ones he had here than the ones we have local to us.. can highly recommend.

My partner and i were in Newtown yesterday feb 28th and we called into the silver fish ,i ordered battered beef burger and small chips and my partner ordered minced beef and onion pie and small chips ,we didn't have to wait long for our food which we took back to our car the young lady behind the counter put our food in polystyrene cartons and wrapped them in paper ,we had a 3 minute walk back to our car and the food was still piping hot and the portions were ample . When we have been to other chip shops we have been given our food in cartons and no paper around them so we were very impressed with the silver fish service the paper around the cartons was well wrapped too like a neat parcel so it held the cartons nicely shut ..My burger was really tasty it was quite large and i could taste onion in it so i was so happy and the batter was crispy too and not too thick .As we left the Silver fish all the staff said thank you too and when we were waiting for our food one of the young ladies was singing so must have been happy . we will definitely go to the silver fish again the next time we are in Newtown it is a lovely clean place and there is a small area to eat sit in or out and their prices are good with great customer service and a nice friendly atmosphere ,
