Swallownest Fish Bar in Rotherham

Food cooked to perfection, arrived hot and tasty thank you keep up the good work

I was in this fish and chip shop yesterday and the choices of food are excellent...I had fish &Chips,peas ,curry sauce...And it was absolutely delicious 😋 the fish was large and plentiful cooked fresh ...if you have not been to this chip shop I suggest you do,highly recommend....

Food was absolutely amazing one of the best shops around, thank you guys see u soon 👌🏽

I ordered fish and chips x 3, sausage and scraps. Charged me for everything, got them home and all I’d got was fish and chips twice! It wasn’t even busy only me in there Won’t go there ever again and I’ve been going there years

Just ordered some donner meat from fish bar at Swallownest... It'd come & it's off it smells sour & tastes even worse... rang them for them to say throw it away & next time I order they'll take it off my bill not even offered me my money back. As you can imagine I don't want yo wat rest of the food from there. ( they didn't even deny when I asked if anyone else had complained)

Ordered for home delivery, very fast service, food lovely and hot, recommend, would definitely use again !

Orderd a cone of chips and gravy which was literally a blob ..£3.10 are you joking really plus couldn't put yr own salt vinegar on intact was none on them .. absolutely ripping people off

absolutely disgusting found multiple hairs in my food and when i tried to call up they never answered GRIM!

Good local chippy! Generous portions, good quality.

Excellent quality food really loved it

Nice place new owners have turned it around the fish was nice and crispy and the chips were nice and fresh keep it up

New management so give them a chance 15 minuits to order and be 15 minutes waiting time when served, I don't think so. Food was horrible not nice I won't recommend this to everyone

Use to go here all the time, not any more! Gave my 3 year old food poisoning never use again!!

The food was nice. However, I think you have to order most things as the selection was poor

Well portion size used to be good but since new management that has decreased drastically and everything has gone up by 2 pound although it is for less food

Under New Management and it shows. Been twice and excellent both times. Chips, Cod, service and hygeine all top notch 👍

Decided to try this out as been going to Oceans after old owners went downhill and this is more convenient. The Food was lovely, freshly cooked and felt like they valued your custom. Hope your new venture works out for you.

Was one of the best but changed hand food not a good and prices way too high lost my custom

New management so give them a chance , 20 minuits to order and be served, I don't think so, . Sending delivery orders out with people waiting in the shop ? Inefficient is the best I could say

I am trying to go to the restaurant but turns out it isnt opened while google states that it will open today. Quite annoying the opening times not matching and i have traveled for a long time to come here. Really disappointed.

The fish shop is under new management so we decided to have fish Friday and go to swallownest fish bar. On entering the lady was polite and asked what fish I required as its cooked to order I waited around 20mins for my 3 cod but I didn't mind that as I knew it would be fresh. The cod was well cooked very large and meaty and was delicious and so were the chips, the curry sauce was tasty too the cost of the cod was £6.80 per portion and large chips £2.95 the large chips was adequate for 3 of us. Would definitely use again and I hope they keep the same standards up and we wish them well.

New owners have turned the place around

It's a good place to go for fish and chips pies and loads more stuff grate little fish and chip shop

Shocked by the I don't care attitude of the gossiping staff, had to wait 25 minutes for my order, when I did receive it, chips were cold and hard, fish was dry and tasteless, sides are like water, handle's food with bare hands which I find disgusting, it's went right down hill in the past couple a month's, Will be taking my custom else where as I won't give these vile people my hard earned cash and I advise people to do the same!

Stay away.....Terrible food agree with previous comments.

Am not sure what has happened to this chip shop over the last few months, it's used to be really nice, the last 4 times we have been it has really gone down hill, the last 2 times the food was uneatable, the chips were hard like they had been warmed up over and over, the taste of the sausage was awful, not sure what it tasted of but it definitely was not any sausage I have ever had, it really is a shame as it used to be nice and ques out the door, now it's always empty, think the owner really wants to take note of all the latest reviews and put right what has gone wrong before it's to late.

We ordered chips, fishcake and curry amongst other things and nobody liked it. The chips were really dry and mostly like the ends of the potato rather the nice fluffy ones. The fishcake was caked in grease (no pun intended) and was like a browny yellow colour inside, not white like it should be. The curry sauce was nice but with nobody liking the other things we bought, we'll not be going back there again.

Must have been bad potatoes cos them chips were the worst that I have ever had from them.

Nice straight fish and chips, pleasant lady behind the bar :)

Absolutely awful chips were like rubber, ordered a large an must've got about25/30 chips really overpriced for the quality an quantity

19.05.23 not the first time we've had discusting food from here I mean I woudnt give this my dog !!

Been a few times usually nice , today was terrible , fishcakes hard , chips looked burnt like been warmed up over n over , curry was cold , be a while before we go bk . Shame because it's a nice chip shop , lovely staff

Very disappointed the taste of the chips as changed and I've be going there for years.

Fresh fish cooked to order. Good portions

Disgusting and disrespectful customer service from the man who works behind the counter on Thursdays - swearing at customers whilst children in the shop - I will never put foot in there again

Saw the cook verbally abuse a woman in the shop in front of the customers. Disgusting behaviour and a disgusting man - never eating there again.

Had to wait as they cook fresh but very nice and reasonable prices

I ordered 2 fish cakes and chips chips were soggy. The fishcakes were probably from the day before or lunchtime they were basically over cooked as they had been sat heating up for hours .I had to snap open with my hand as unable to cut with a knife .not a great deal inside no sign of any fish I will never go again to this chip shop not even worth a 1 star

Always waiting for fish to be cooked.

Can only give one star for being closed on a Monday lunchtime not good enough

Not our first visit and will not be our last. Good food at good prices. PROPER CHIPS not fries. The scampi was very nice, very filling... loads of food. Everything was piping hot and fresh. Can not fault this place..... we will be back

Chips & fishcakes covered in thick yellow grease, left awful aftertaste. Batter too thick & hard on fishcake with very little fish or potato inside. Used to be a nice chip shop, not anymore, won't be re-visting. Not surprised there was no one in.

Only second time visiting the fish shop as I have to travel to get here. It was quiet and after talking to the owner he said January is always a quiet time. They cook fish to order at these quiet times which is understandable but at least you know it's cooked fresh. Very tasty fish and chips will call again.

Been today ,Food was not good,Won't be going again.

No longer Rotherham's best fish & chips shop since the Fryer left.

Lovely fish special at lunch time

Food hot, which is a novelty nkw days, great staff.

Don't bother. Cod was all batter and the bit of fish that was there was awful. Used to be a good chippy, will never go back. Worst fish and chips we have had for a while.

Good fresh haddock. Chunky chips. Friendly staff

Tried instead of my closest chippy and don't regret it, fresh, tasty chips and the batter on the fish wasn't overbearing like my usual chippy, was crispy and just right

Fish and chips was nice,but they only accept cash payments,that was disappointing no card payment facilities

First time been there, happy staff and great fish and chips, good service ..

Superb fish and chips newly moved to the area tried twice now. Definitely my new favourite chippy

Fish chips Mucky Peas Battered Sausage and Curry sauce - Excellent

Fantastic helpful staff and the large Haddock was out of this world. Thank you

Best fish n chips as always, friendly staff, would recommend 👌

Friendly service and nice fish and chips

Super tasty fish and chips, served with a smile

Great friendly service, top quality fish

Amazing food, always so tasty and fresh and also so clean and hygienic. I must say (Vicky and Dawn) must be two of the of loveliest ladies I have ever met in my life and we’re so happy to help. They were so chatty and honestly made my evening. I turned up 5 minutes before closing time and this wasn’t even considered a problem to them, even had some fresh chips put in for me, how good is that?!:) I can’t praise them enough for the experience I have had this evening and if you ever get a chance to go to swallownest fish bar you most definitely won’t be disappointed. Thankyou once again to Vicky and Dawn you are both an asset to the company.

Very clean shop and extremely friendly staff. All the food is very tasty and the fish is cooked to order and very large. I always phone up and put my order in before arriving. Used this chip shop for years! Excellent service!

I arrived after a local meeting at a quiet time they were very happy to prepare exactly what I wanted. Tasted as good as at the seaside

Fish & chips are good, shop nice & clean. The batter is a bit thick for my taste, I like it thin & crisp

Really nice chippy & friendly staff

This was actually quite good. Just a local village chippy, but not overly greasy and it was friendly.

Called today for portioofchips to take home. This was. At 3 o,clock when we got home ,they had been cooked. That long they were mostly.all dried. Up. Bits , bined them

Fishcakes to die for and fish as big as your forearm!!

Gorgeous chip butty! Following social-distancing too.

Friendly staff and food is great.

My take out of choice when i'm left to fend for self.

The best chips we've had in a long time and reasonable prices. Haddock was really big and kids loved the battered sausage!

Love there fish n chips best in Sheffield very clean place gd food

QUALITY FOOD GREAT PRICE POLITE STAFF WOULD DEFFO RECOMMEND *****

Great stuff great prices everyone friendly

Good portions of top quality fish and chips served in a friendly atmosphere.

Unltimetly don't go there unless they now you or you have to wait till they serve the people they now shocking place I don't recamend at all

Staff are always very friendly, prices are good and the food is excellent (and I say that as someone who was born and bred in Grimsby!). We eat here at least once a fortnight and it's a lovely treat. Thank you!

Absolutely Smashing Cod/Chips & pea's

Tasty food, polite and down to earth staff, offers for the tighter budget.

Lovely fish and chips best scraps ever😍😍

A good local chippy. They have a good menu selection to chose from. The food was delicious and at a reasonable price.

Very friendly staff, good tasty food and reasonably priced

Great fish and chips and fish cakes, yummy, nothing like the chippies in Sheffield area they are the best ever!

I'm not from around here, so maybe I have a different view from the locals. We arrived just before closing and we were greeted with a look of "oh great, a customer". Not even a smile. We were told they were closing, and all they had was chips, well duh, it's a chip shop, what do you think we want? A camel? Customer service probably counts for more than the actual product in this day and age. I don't remember what the chips were like, the only thing I'll remember is the service. Grim. Oh and the very negative signs on the wall behind the counter, written on orange card, I don't remember what they said but it wasn't friendly.

Not Great. Haddock was dry and over cooked and crumbly. Chips very greasy. Very long wait for the food and this was topped off my very unfriendly staff. Not worth the money and definitely not worth going back to. The meal ended up in the bin.

Found a big in the bottom of my tray.

Disgusting, fish was hard and over cooked. Staff not so friendly.

Best chippie for miles around. Rick Stein couldn't cook fish any better

Very nice food and nice Staff and Reasonably priced

Best fish and chips we've had for a while.

Traditional fish & chips with a seaside taste 😋😋

Friendly staff and excellent quality every time

Really fresh very large portions excellent value for money

Great food with friendly staff. Nothing too much trouble

Friendly staff, great food & great portion sizes. Fish and chips are amazing.

The batter here is perfect for me, light and crispy. Recently gone through some changes, can't use cards and am always suspicious when a chippy runs out of chips?

Always the first choice in the village. Food always well cooked and friendly staff.

Only had chips but they were great!!

Friendly service and great fish and chips.

Excellent chippy. Good customer service and quality fish and chips ☺
