St Michaels Fish and Chips in Ashford

Bad experience this evening. Had food from here a week ago and it was amazing so decided to have again but everything was undercooked this time round. Perhaps because it was a busy Friday night service vs the mid week. Batter was soggy and most of the chips not soft in the middle. Unfortunately you don’t know till you bring it home so can’t sort in the shop. Real shame as you could hear the staff trying to get it out as quick as poss but if they’d just waited a couple more mins it would have been the usual high standard :( feels like money wasted

Always had good service and quality.

Ordered another takeaway to be delivered from here absolutely brilliant my wife had a regular cod was massive batter was Crispy I had cod goujons and cod roe was brilliant and kids had savolys and battered sausage again batter nice and crispy, and chips by far the best chips I have had for a long time. This is by far the best chip shop in tenterden and st micheals and surrounding area, also delivery was quick thanks guys 👍👍

Always ready to oblige very friendly

Lovely chips, burger very good all cooked fresh

After a recommendation from a family member, we decided to have a delivery. Very disappointed. Sausages were fine, shame about the chips. All four portions they sent were definitely refried. Very hard and unpleasant. Threw away more then we ate.

best fish n chips in this area. Large portions, great fries. Also extra wishes are no problem. Always great💪🏻

Great family take away with lovely quality food. They even deliver for free to the pub opposite in the light that the pub currently doesn't offer food. Great friendly quick service to.

Really let down....made an error while at work yesterday (in ashford) and ordered my children (11 and 14years) a fish and chip lunch as a treat while I was working in ashford that they would walk round the corner and collect. Unfortunately as new to area i ordered from the wrong restaurant and upon arriving to collect their food my children were told there was no order made. While at work when they contacted me I realised my error paid the correct restaurant so my kids could take their lunch home and right away (within 35min of order) contacted St Micheals and apologise for error and ask for a refund considering the circumstances. Not only are they refusing to refund they have been disgusting rude and made me feel awful All I wanted to do was treat my kids while I was working and it's become and unessicary total nightmare. Really really disappointed 😞

Very large portion, food was great.

I was really impressed with this place today. First of all, I really liked the app and found it really easy to work out prices and place an order for collection. I turned up at the beginning of the time-frame for collection and the order was freshly cooked and waiting. The quality and quantity was excellent. The fish was perfect and the chips were light and dry, not greasy. A nice touch was the piece of lemon and tub of tartare sauce in each box. Will be ordering again.

Chips are scrappy, fish was OK but batter was stodgy

We had read a few reviews on here of this fish and chip shop, so decided to detour over to it after a day out. And this is no exaggeration but in my opinion their fish and chips are probably the best I have ever had. We had to wait a little bit, but so worth it, the cod was freshly cooked, the batter was so light and crispy, the fish tasted so fresh and was perfectly cooked, and the chips were really well cooked too. The portions were very generous, with a pot of tartar sauce and a slice of lemon included. And I thought the price was more than fair considering the quality of the fish and chips. Good parking right outside off the busy road, and the option to eat in if you wanted to. So if you enjoy really good quality fish and chips cooked properly, and have a good appetite then I would highly recommend St Michael's Fish & Chips. We went in on a Monday, about 6pm and didnt have to wait very long at all to be served. Great job guys, and I wish you every success, you certainly deserve it.

Stopped off her whilst travelling through the area. Really nice fish 'n chips. Great prices, fresh fish and lovely, plentiful chips. Pleasant, friendly staff and it's definitely worth checking out.

Brilliant place to get Fish and Chips. Friendly staff and clean facilities. Would definitely recommend to friends!

Excellent burger and chips. Sat in on an evening. Very nice and comfortable.

Chicken was a bit overdone to my liking but otherwise great 👍

Properly good chips. Nice staff too :)

Genuinely the best chip shop food we've had in a long time! Between us we had chicken, sausage, cod and obviously chips. Everything was fresh and the Chips and batter were crispy. I know it's changed hands recently and there were some not so great reviews at first. Maybe it was teething problems? Delivery service also very good.

Very good. Haven't used this fish and chip shop for a long time. New owners. Food very tasty with generous portion sizes. Excellent service too.

Burgers were so tasty, service was friendly highly recommended

Great fish and chips perfectly cooked. Staff are very friendly but professional and extremely efficient, excellent portions and a very comprehensive menu for both adults and kids. Highly recommended as this is the absolute best chippy in the area.

Well I've known this shop for over 25 years and always loved the food. It's changed hands and tonight definitely slipped in quality and standard. Chips where chewy, curry sauce was so thick need a scraper to spread it. Vegie burger was burnt on one side. Pineapple fritters hardly covered in batter either didn't rice cone them first or the batter is way too thin. Poor very poor!

Chips not particularly crispy and vinegar was put on when not asked. However the staff were friendly and the Scampi was delicious. Service was reasonably quick and reasonably priced for the area, overall, I'm impressed with the service delivered.

Really good fish & chips, not greasy.

Best fish and chips around,just a shame they don't deliver

They used to supply fresh cut potatoes fried in the fryer.On this visit we had either frozen or ready done chips from their supplier.I can appreciate if they can’t get fresh potatoes at least tell us

Best fish and chips in the area. Quick service and friendly staff. Highly recommend

We get our fish and chips from here regularly, the service is great and the staff are always friendly, reasonably priced at the moment they have slushies which are welcome in the heat!

Really good food and friendly staff

Real cod not pangga shh it's a secret

They are okay, just they close early

You get good fish and chips from here

Big portion but the fish was over cooked and the chips were soggy also far too much salt on them.

Had some friend around , decided on fish and chip, 10 lots and it was very tastey, and even the chips sorted very quickly by the staff. Thankyou.

Chips lovely fish the worst I've ever had bought 6 pieces of fish last nite all in bin would never go there again who ever says it's good fish well you can't have any taste buds

Gone from a good fish and chip shop in Tenterden to almost the worst, just got cod and chips, fish covered in grease and chips cold, the governer wasn't there that might make a difference but it all went in the bin, very disappointing especially when you ask for non greasy food

They do great fish and chips. Lot's of choices. Pies, sausages, cheese and onion or pineapple fritters, burgers and much more. Lovely friendly family run business. Highly recommended

Good food freshly cooked. A massive downside is the very limited parking.

Really great fish and chips, handy for parking and very polite staff. Always use them and would recommend.

Good service and very nice food. I very much appreciate that the chips are never undercooked.

Really good fish and chips and friendly service I would highly recommend them

Good old fish and chips and plenty more choice

Clean and delicious fish and chip treat.

The chips were over cooked the fish tasted really watery. My family said the same. I wont be going back for more.

Amazing I've traveled all over the uk. Down to Cornwall and Devon, and around the south each costal line, and eaten in a Many different fish restaurants to get freshly caught fish and what you hope will be a nice dinner. yet this fish and chip shop is by far the best for a fish meal. The portion is amazing for the money. The fish is bright white and thick chunks. The batter is to die for. And the chips are fluffy yet nice and crispy on the outside. We live in ashford, and don't mind the 25 minute drive to come Get from Here. We use to enjoy the chefs fish dinners many years ago when he was in other fish bar down the road. And so glad hes back doing what clearly he's good at.

Best fish and chips in Tenterden

We visit regularly. Attentive staff. Excellent food quality. Family feel. Good value for money. All round, highly recommended.

All cooked fresh to order, excellent value for money, recommended.

Excellent fish and chips, go try urself

went to this fish and chip shop last year . very rude staff . i thought i would give them a second chance .nothink changed still rude staff . what a shame because the food is really good very large portions it’s a Shame the manners and Customer service are not as good as the food

Our local chippie. Everything cooked to order. Friendly family run business. Never had a bad service or food. Tip..if you don't eat lots of chips, ask for a half portion, always plenty.

Freshly cooked to order, vast menu to cater for all my families wants, good value for money and we will be back next weekend

The best fish and chips in kent!

Had a fish and chips take away lunch with friends. The fish and chips were delicious. The portion sizes were very generous (I'm glad we only had medium sized, goodness knows how big large would have been). My wife is gluten free but she was able to have gluten free batter which was very good.

Our daughter lives in St Michael’s and we often have a treat with St Michael’s fish and Chips when we are there. Last week we drove from our home in Headcorn to pick up F/C as it is far superior to anything we have locally. The Huss was pure white and sweet and the plaice the same. There was no greasy residue in the paper the fish was wrapped in. The chips were fresh, golden and non greasy. Excellent

After being in lockdown so long I was so looking forward to some fish & chips but what a disappointment . The batter was so thick and hard that when I tried to cut the end it shot off my plate. , it looked as if the oil needed changing and the chips looked as if they had been cooked twice.

Always great food. Tip: always ask for a half portion of chips unless you want a ton of potatoes as their portions are very generous. At least me and the missus think so, one half portion does us both.

Very nice. Fish is massive. The gluten free batter is spot on. Very friendly business the shop next door is fantastic too.

Everyone there is welcoming! One of the best chippies I've seen in a very long time... The food is excellent!

Spoilt ourselves this evening with freshly cooked haddock and chips. The fish was succulent and very fresh and the small portion of chips, just the right quantity for us, were cooked very well. Admittedly, sometimes better than others, but we've never had a bad experience, always a treat.

Freshly cook food and a good quantity as well as quality one of the best around

We always go here when we want fish and chips. The food is always nice. Recently we went to the chip shop in Tenterden rather than here, and it was such a disappointment. Will stick to St Michaels chip shop in the future!

I am a regular visitor, the fish and chips are cooked to order and are normally very good, except tonight! What happened?The fish was dry, very little fish which was stuck to the batter. The batter was over cooked. Very dry.Very disappointing. Feel let down as the quality is normally very good. Now reluctant to revisit. Don

This is one of those great English chippies but you immediately notice that it is spit-spot clean, and the meals are quickly parcelled up with flourish. My impression was a proud dad and a family run business following a standard.

Best fish and chips in a LONG time!! friendly staff and fish is very fresh. Chips cooked to perfection.

Great fish and chips good price and freshly cooked

What is usually the best fish and chips around here. Wasn't tonight. Fish dry and chewy.

Great fish and double-dipped chips. Generous portions and other options like sausage rolls, available. Fast service.

Lovely staff and looks super clean. Fish was very disappointing though, over cooked and dry wth a batter that was very dry and cruncy, definately over cooked. Such a shame aas I had reviewed the comments and thought this was the best choice. Maybe it was a bad night, most of my dinner went in the bin. The chips were great though. Such a shame as was really looking forard to the meal living up to the reviews.

Don't have it very often, but it's really delicious and tasty when I do

Always good fish and chips here. The pies are good too

Chips ok but really need to get some fresh oil.

Great food, great staff - if you want a great fish and chip shop in the Tenterden area then look no further. Well worth a visit

I have learned through experience that this is the best chippy in the area. Always fresh cooked, always flavoursome.

We had fish and chips from this shop this week while staying nearby on holiday. It was the best fish shop fish and chips I have ever had. Tasty fish and delicious crispy chips. Not a soggy chip in sight.

A large number of young girls, directed by the owner, bakes and packes and sells. I guess this is what a real British fish-and-chipe-shop looks like. Friendly.

Good golden chips as they should be, good choice of fish, pies and other savouries.

The best fish an chips for miles an cooked to perfection by the family run shop Vince ashdord

A colleague very kindly bought me fish & chips in Canterbury and it reminded me that if you want decent fish & chips you have to go to St Michael’s!

Excellent fish and chips to take away, the service is pleasant and fast: about 15 minutes time to order and cook the fish. The 'standard' is already very generous, whether for the fish or the portion of fries. Better to reserve the 'large' for those who are really hungry. I highly recommend, because it's really very good. Be careful though, there is no table for eating on site, it's takeaway.

Always excellent food and friendly service

When asked to cater for a lunchtime December meeting of the High Halden Young at Heart Club, St. Michael's Fish and Chip Shop came up trumps! The order for 69 diners was delivered to us during one of their busiest times of the day. Some three miles distance from the shop, the food was delivered to us so that it could be transferred to the waiting plates of our Members. Not only was it at just the right temperature, beautifully cooked and the portions satisfied the largest of appetites.Thank you to Jamie and his team for helping to make this a perfect special meal for us all.We could certainly recommend this service to other local clubs and societies - most accommodating.

Only popped in for a bag of chips. Not rude to me personally but the young lad whom I think is the son is a moody little so and so. Small businesses need repeat custom to thrive in a small town with other similar food outlets. Could take or leave here to be honest.

After a long night of travel from the States, and touring all day on arrival, we were ready for dinner. Did not realize this was take-away only, but ordered anyway and made use of dining room at B&B.; Excellent fish & chips -- best of our trip. Reasonable price, good portions. Still crisp on arrival at table. Maybe we hit a really good night, but it was outstanding!

The fish was fresh and delicious, done in a wonderful and crisp batter. Best fish and chips in the area.

This place tried to charge my husband £71.50 for one meal of 12 piece scampi and small chips .They must think its the ritz for them prices. Argued it and they stuck to there guns so ended up having cod instead. Dissapointing as i used to like this place.

Take it or leave it attitude from the staff, my strong advice would be to leave it! Greasy, soggy and just horrid.

Excellent fish and chips well worth a visit

We thought it would be nice to have a fish supper as a treat, we have take outs there before and they have been pretty good.

Always lovely food. Friendly service.

Nice size fish portions, chip portions a little on the meagre side n prices a little expensive.

Quality fresh cooked fish and chips. Parking in front. Always good, Friendly and helpful staff. Very clean and inviting

Stopped here on the way home and fancied fish and chips. Cooked to perfection and staff were constantly busy serving.

Sausages over cooked / rock hard both ends and crispy over done chips. Its the last time we uss the place, it was the same the last time we had a family dinner from here. Very disappointed

Great cod and chips, good portion size and not too greasy. Gets busy friday nights, but still efficient service

Our regular fish and chip shop , very staff good quality fish and chips( our favourite option) have to say we have been enjoying the extra crispy batter and chips more recently. Highly recommend.

Always the best. Love the special burger!

Good selection of food, which we prefer to the two other chip shops.

Best chips anywhere by far. Parking outside. Nice people.
