Had the cheese and onion fry it well that's what it said on the menu but it was tasteless supposed to be mushy peas more like slushy peas and the chips weren't up to much, second time I've been in Steve's diner and the last.

A beautiful infusion of flavour with a light spongy cream topping and chocolate mousse style filling cheesecake. Honeycomb ice cream scoop topped off and enhanced the luxury flavour. Definitely worth a try. It's called a hot chocolate cheesecake.

Amazing food as always! Can’t get a better fish and chips anywhere! Great service from Sarah. She’s always great especially with the kids when they come!

Top sit down fish shop! We all had the lunch time meal deal £10.50. Either fish or pie, with peas, bread and butter with tea. Superb quality and really great service. Parking round the back, very clean.

Burnt fishcake and an idiot woman who thinks me asking for a small chips, fishcake and a small pot of curry sauce equals a curry mix..... If I wanted my chips soaking in curry I would of asked for that to begin with but she then copmes abck wioth the excuse that it's cheaper..... I didn't know Steves gave out finnacial advice and i certainly don't care about a 50p difference.

The portion size was huge, both had a kebab tray, delivered hot, perfect Uber Eats delivery, only disappointment was chips were not cooked and underdone, if we had fish and chips with those chips, would have been terrible

Too long to wait in so called resteruant. Ordered fish chips and peas plus some home made gravy. When it finally arrived NO GRAVY . How do you get such a small order wrong? Staff to busy yapping about private lives not paying attention to the order No social distancing observed tables to close. Very uncomfortable experience. Well food !! The only good was the fish crispy batter nice fish just over cooked a little slightly dry but good. The rest well just average. Order a take away.

I don't know if most of you remember back in the 70s and 80s where you would go to the chip shop as a child and get the scratching from the chip shop and pay nothing for them well this is how it was today it brought back memories but this time having to pay for them greasy fat chips

Not only is it a takeaway, its a cafe! Fish and chips are always perfect and the sides are fresh and hot. Since most people probably go on about the hot food and main courses, the café's range of deserts is worth a mention. Lots of choices, available in vegan and Slimming World friendly options made by the staff and members of the community. Never once been disappointed with our visits.

What a discovery! We'll be back for sure. The place was fresh and clean, even the toilets were modern and sparkling. Although Steve told us that he had recently pared a few things off the menu, it had many items listed that made me want to make a return visit, especially the Greek dishes. Steve was very welcoming, and our fish dishes (sea bass and tuna) were delicious. Highly recommended. We will definitely be using his loyalty card.

Visited here on and off for the last thirty years. The food is great but the staff have always left a bad taste in the mouth. They’ve always been consistently miserable and rude. Even in front of the boss. I don’t understand it, surely greeting customers with a friendly smile and pleasant demeanour are paramount when working with the public?

I visited Steve’s Fish Bar on 19th March at 18:40. I come here often for chips but tonight made me question returning. The way I was spoken to by the staff member taking orders was disgusting. She was wearing glasses and looked aged 60s. Everyone remembers their experience when visiting places and sure as hell influences their decision to go there again. I think they need to teach their staff some customer service skills.

Fish n chips to die for. The Greeks have a way of cooking fish and chips to perfection. Lovely taste, colour, only spoilt by not being in newspaper lol. A must treat. Batter on the fish and sausages is crispy tasty and compliments the fish and sausages. Chips are perfectly cut, tasteful and just a drop of vinegar and salt. Love this place.

This is a top tier chip shop. The quality of the food is great and the chips in particular are the best. They also have a small cafe attached which serves all their chip shop choices and more; the coffee is good and the cake comes with ice cream.

I felt that the second I walked in the place, did not have a good vibe. Instantly they started staring at me and making me feel unconfutable. After reading reviews 5 of us thought we were in for a fish and chip delight. We were wrong 3 chips and curry sauce 1 haddock and chips 1 pie and chips 3 drinks and 3 mayonnaise plus 3 extra curry sauce £20 )is in Gloucester 39 pounds in beer and half the size terribly disappointing end to great day in beer .We will not be eating there again

Hands up, I have to admit this is our regular chip shop and we generally visit once a week. As a family, we love that the chips are fresh, the fish is tasty and the kebabs are big enough for two. The staff are local and friendly, there is an option to take away or eat in their restaurant which is also very friendly and good for groups of all sizes (a local beaver group had a party there).

Derby is 100 miles from the see but the fish was so fresh could of been at the seaside. Well done to Steve and his staff for a great place to eat.

My partner is from Derby and he always says this is the place to go for fish and chips! I have to say very impressed with the fish and chips from here! We live near the sea, not far from Cornwall and these were almost as good as we get at home! Also had my first taste of a potato fritter as never seen or heard of one before and got to say it was all very yummy! Bravo!

Called into Derby to collect my car and as it was late on we decided to get some fish and chips and was told about steves by someone I work with. I had fish chips and peas, my partner had mini fish chips and peas and our daughter had home made fish cake and chips . All I can say is best I have ever had. All cooked to perfection no complaints from any of us, so with all my reviews give it a go and try from yourself you won't be disappointed

Visited this place on the way back from giving Derby County a beating in the EFL Cup, got a fishcake which was really nice and the staff there especially Archie were great. If you've heard otherwise it's probably off some weird fella who hangs around and doesn't even buy anything and gives bad reviews.

Steve's fish bar in my opinion is the number one in Derby. The fish is always large and cooked freshly and also the chips are a good size and plenty of them. You can also sit inside the fish bar and order just like the sea side cafe's. Well worth a visit. The staff are also very helpful and friendly. We wouldn't go anywhere else.

I have been here for my chips a few times and I am just about getting annoyed. I am paying £2 for a regular bag of chips - which you would expect to go round 3 people. I have just bought a regular bag and opened them at home and I cannot believe what I am seeing. There is only enough chips to fill a "cone of chips". It is getting beyond a joke. I have noticed that some staff give the reasonable amount for the price - but other staff are really starting to pi** me off.

I love this chippy, food is always hot and staff are always friendly, my only little problem is that I can wait up to 15 minutes somedays to get my food due to the massive line in takeaway, it must mean that this place is obviously the place to go for good chips! But it is a little slow sometimes

This is the only Fish & Chip shop I will go to in Derby. By far the best in Derbyshire. This is eating at it's best. The fish is always white inside and the batter is always crunchy. Chips are to die for. Great for a one time visit or a regular Friday night.

We have used Steve's takeaway for many years and have always found that a high standard has always been maintained. I tried the restaurant which has recently opened adjacent to the takeaway, and found a refreshing pleasant atmosphere where I enjoyed a lunchtime value meal of mini fish (not that mini?), chips, choice of peas/beans/sauce with bread & butter and tea/coffee for £5.99. Excellent value. So six of us went and they also really enjoyed it, one having a pie instead of fish. Good value for money from friendly and competent staff. We will definitely visit again.

Needed to grab a quick bite to eat whilst out and about. Steves Fish Bar has always been a good choice for take away Fish and chips but recently have purchased the property next door and turned it into a sit down eatery. So not wanting to eat my dinner in the car I opted to try the new eating area. Its a really nice modern feel and definitely not a greasy spoon environment. I had the value fish and chips meal for £5.99 which included - mini Fish, Chips, Mushy peas, Bread and Butter, and a pot of Tea for one. My son had Chicken Burger, Chips and Salad and a Sprite, think his was £5.50. Food was freshly cooked as it was very hot, it was all very good quality. Service was prompt with drinks coming straight away and food within 5 mins. A nice touch for a tight git like me is that they bring you sauces of your choice for no extra charge. It does gripe me when they normally charge 20p for a dollop of sauce. There is a customer toilet which was clean and there is also ample free parking at the back.

Telephone customer service needs improving. Note for management: Praise Jake, and please have a 1 to 1 with Nisha/Neesha. I have shipped here quite a few times and enjoyed my experience in store, with most staff generally being enthusiastic. However, yesterday, my partner and I had a tire puncture and called up to check when the tyre bay would be open til and if we could have it replaced on that day. I had tried calling the tyre bay but had no luck with an answer so I chose to call the main store. Nisha/ Neesha picked up the phone to me, I advised of the situation and what we wanted and she replied with a blunt "wait a second" and put me on hold for 4 mins, then the call cut out. I called again and explained I had called already and recieved the same "hold on" reply and stayed on hold for 4/6 mins before the call dropped. When I called the third time I advised her that she wasn't telling me what she is doing and I don't want to be put on hold again if possible. She then proceeded to ask me a question in the rudest and dismissive tone. It was at this point that I stated I work in customer service and that her tone was not suitable nor appreciated, all I did was call up to get some answers, I didn't pressure her or speak rudely so I don't feel her response was warranted. After sometime she seemed to calm down but clung to the same blunt replies. Attitude like this will drive away sales, and if it wasn't for Jake, we definitely would have gone elsewhere. Please check in with her, support and train her properly. As I do not know of it was busy I store I don't know whether she was under a lot of pressure but it seems she needs help managing this. Eventually, she informed me that I would receive a call back. Jake from tyres was helpful and polite and answered my questions clearly. It took about 5/10 mins for call back which was good. Just a note that: your staff should be polite to all customers and have an understanfing they they don't know the needs of the individual they are speaking with so clear communication is key ( as an autistic individual it would be appreciated to have more staff who behave like Jake) .

Visited on Wednesday lunchtime (10th Oct) only to find it was closed, despite the opening hours on the door stating it should be open! This place used to be a great fish & chip shop, and we have been regular customers for the past 40 years! Sadly, this was the final straw. Together with reduced opening times, and the food quality which has dropped markedly over the last year or so, my wife and I have taken the decision to find an alternative source for our lunchtime fish and chips. We won't be using Sitwell Fish Bar any longer ... very disappointed. Date of visit: September 2024

Whenever I go here and get my food the staff are always friendly, portions are large, so much that we get regular chips but can't eat them all
