Starfish Bar in Southampton

This time I had Large Donor kebab and Chips. The Donor kebab most have been the lowest grade of kebab meat takeaways can get. It was very fatty, tasteless and cut long stop using the Electric carving knife it just comes out pathetic. The kebab was Rubbish the only thing saving it was the Salad and that was ok. But please try and stop using a electric slicing machine try and cut it manually. The Chilli sauce was just pathetic. Why don't takeaways do there own. Is it the cost for a good. This Chilli sauce was just mass produced no flavor and no soul. The only good thing from my order apart from the Salad. The chips are the two stars. They are very good,the place must have changed there oil brand or something. Overall please put some more effort and money into your kebabs. It will be worth it

Their fish and chips are absolutely a1. The most reasonably priced fish and chips I've had in decades. Recommend. Their pea fritter is legendary. Delicious and generous.

First time here and it didn't disappoint. Pea fritter, battered sausage, gravy and chips....all very good. Also tried a sneaky battered Snickers...which was interesting. I'll be back soon to try the battered Mars Bar...and some fish!

We are in the office next door and one of us probably eats here every week. Great chips, good prices and always so friendly. We saw a Tiktok trend and asked them to make it for us. They said it was no trouble. Highly recommend

This is the best chippy in Southampton. They are so friendly and its always so clean in there. We are right next door and as soon as we smell it we cant resist it and the whole team ends up having chips for lunch!

Best chippy In Southampton hands down

Great food, best portions I have found around this area for price, food is perfect every time, highly recommend. The only downside is the cash payments only but a shop is right next door with a cash machine. Can feed a family of 4 for less then £20

Friendly service, not often busy.

I tried the chicken strips and chips from here. The chips were fairly typical quality for a takeout: decent but not fantastic. The chicken strips were quite bland and no better than a frozen product; they weren't particularly bad, per se, but still underwhelming. Pricing was reasonable, costing me about £6 for one person, although only cash payments were being accepted at the time of my visit (August 2024).

Best fish and chips in Southampton, good sized portions, very friendly staff and looks super clean at all times Definitely coming back

Have just had a lunch time special. As on other occasions,cooked to perfection. The best fish and chips in Southampton.

Amazing place and food is really good. So clean and friendly.

It's been disappointing recently. Chips are always cold even after going in after they have just opened. The fish is usually pretty good but the chips are what really let's it down unfortunately. You can't have a fish and chip shop with cold chippies! It's a real shame as the service is good and the lady who works there is really nice!

Having been using for years, nice family run it qnd the food is of a very good standard

Best chip shop around . Staff polite and friendly .always very clean . Won't go anywhere else

Kebab meat was cold & greasey , pitta bread also cold. I was sick for 36 hours after eating here

Banging little chip shop really good fried fish and great size chips … curry sauce is great and pea fritter is lush

Probably the best chip shop ever!! Have now visited three times over three years & the quality of the chips, sausage & large fish cake has been excellent each visit. A family owned traditional chip shop - they love what they do & they are very good at it too! They are proud to serve the local community with top quality freshly cooked food! The best value for money (out of 5 similar premises locally). For the chips, quality potatoes freshly cut, quality clean oil used to fry, couldn't ask for better! The jumbo sausage delicious (battered & non-battered). Simply amazing value meal, well under £10 for two adults...wow! Staff service friendly & always smiling :) Requested open wrapped, we thoroughly enjoyed eating straight away! Only one slight drawback is that it is a 'cash only' premise (we ran to the next door convenience shop & fortunately got cashback with a purchase). Next time we'll arrive better prepared! 👍☺️

Never had a problem previously. But I bought fish cake, Mushy peas and chips here on Saturday, the fish cake was obviously old and stale, it was so dry, I only ate half of it. That night I was violently ill with food poisoning. This is all I had eaten that day that would be the cause. Its put me off completely, won't be going back.

I had a perfectly cooked sausage and chips and a pickled egg. The service was very friendly, the price was good, however this is 2023 cash only is so last millennium.

Best local chippy. Fantastic prices, great customer service and superb hygiene. Amazing - always our go to.

Absolutely amazing!!!!! Everything tastes really great. Staff are so friendly,, best fish and chips in millbrook and Shirley, definitely recommend

Never dissapointed with the food and staff very friendly , always spotlessly clean 🙂🙂

The best fish and chips I've ever had in my life, the service very good, without a doubt the best fish and chips in Southampton

Best chippy in Southampton, great chips.

I grabbed a kebab and chips on my way home from work I was pleasantly surprised how good the food was I’ll definitely be using again and the service was friendly

10/10 food here is always on point and service with a smile. always fab!!

Great Food, Great Portions, Great People, the only reason they don’t get 5 stars is because of the Cash Only policy.

Collected a phone in order. It was very fresh and hot just as wanted. Very friendly staff too

Very quick service and the food is very good

Fish is beautiful but I personally don't like their chips,

Great chippy friendly staff and good sized portions ..order always spot on

Fantastic food, brilliant staff and fantastic service

I live in London and I have been to a fair bit amount of fish and ship shops to eat and I can honestly say this one is by far the best. The meat, the fish and the chips are amazing. Waiting time is almost none. Every time I come down to Southampton I eat here. Defenitly recomend. Staff are also awesome👍

Very good service and excellent food

It's amazing, amazing place, amazing food, amazing people, great toilets hahah

Great food generous portions and friendly staff

As usual excellent service and great food.

Starfish Bar is the best fish & chips shop here in Southampton. We order in advance and collect for over 30 ladies at Thorners. The staff are so friendly and polite. Everything is wrapped up in s polystyrene container then wrapped in paper. We get back with our order and our ladies have a hot meal everyone happy. You are competitively priced and would never go anywhere else. Thanks so much you are simply the best. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Best place for fish and chips around

Amazing fish and kebab. Lovely staff and very clean chippy

Don't get me wrong, the chips are great, quite a large portion for a small. However, I don't agree with the false advertising menu & opening and closing timetable. Multiple times I've walked to this place, after witnessing online that they are open, only to find that they are closed. Also, there are some lovely things on their online menu, but as soon as you go there to order something from their online menu, it would appear that they don't sell what is mentioned online. Sort it out! Thanks! >:(

Fresh food, friendly staff recommend to everyone

Nice food and staff opens til 9.30 in the evening

Great place staff freindly chips are great proper chip shop chips not from frozen bags kebads are great never over cooked or undercooled

Free parking right outside makes access convenient. Ordering chips, mushy peas and jumbo sausage in batter was quick and easy. The chips were great, the sausage was tasty and well seasoned while the mushy peas we perfect for dipping the chips in. Good value for money, will use again.

Excellent local chippy, lucky to have it on our door step. Fish is always perfect and quality cod. Love this place and it's great for when we have guests.
