Tatnam Fish & Chips in Poole

Can’t recommend this place enough, the staff and customer service is brilliant, always leave with a smile on my face. But most importantly the food is top tier, don’t understand all these bad reviews about the food, best chippy around. 10/10

This plaice(😁) is brilliant. Great menu which changes fairly regularly. Currently trialling chicken wings, unbattered but crispy and delicious. Some unusual sauces too. Staff continually sharing ideas. Pizzas, vegan selection, lunch specials, even spam fritters! Yum! Will return soon. Thoroughly recommend!

had chips and sausages after a trip to hospital at 9.30pm the chips were to terrible and un-eatable. seems like they were the left the fryer all night. staff were very friendly

Amazing service and extremely friendly staff! Food is served quickly but everything tastes beautifully fresh! Would 100% recommend!

Second time I used tatnam, and I must say the food is lovely I had a chicken burger kids had sausages, all very fresh, chips were lovely good portion size too

Highly recommend this fish and chips. Great food quality and great service never fail to put a smile on your face.

The best Fish and Chips around, not just yummy but the service is fast and excellent. Amazing selection. Home deliver also super fast and reliable. Owner and staff is super friendly and helpful.

Had a lovely meal here at Tatnum! Will definitely be returning in the future. Best fish and chippy! They have Lovely staff working which makes you feel very welcome! Would definitely recommend the cod and chips with curry sauce.

Visited after a long day and can say it was more than welcoming and top service. Everyone was very friendly! Onto the food it was incredible, fish was so perfectly cooked with a crispy outer and a soft fish inside. Would most definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for the top fish and chips!

As a mobile Security Officer and needing a meal to see me through the night I can't recommend Tatnum Fish and Chips enough, food is always hot, fresh and tasty, served by extremely friendly happy staff. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

As a mobile Security Officer I need a meal to get me through the night, I can't recommend Tatnum Fish and Chips enough. Always hot, fresh and tasty, clean and friendly happy staff. I wouldn't go anywhere else, the best in the area.

Fish was overcooked and dry....frankly inedible and gross. For something that costs over £8 it's disappointing and unacceptable. Chips were OK - not too greasy. People were nice as well.

Big portions of great food, quite reasonable will visit again! 😀

Ordered fish chips and mushy peas from tatnam fish and chips for a quick meal. Order delivered by uber. Only received fish and mushy peas. Rung tatnam fish and chips basically told not their problem sort with uber. Rubbish customer service. I will definitely never use this company again.

Arrived into Poole at 10pm from France. Was delighted to find this chippy open and even more delighted with the excellent fish and chips and super service. The tartre sauce was beautiful 😋

Pizza from this place is different level. Not much better around, give it a whirl

I had the artisan pizza and it was amazing. Uniquely different than most other pizza out there. Very diverse menu, and what I saw looked great. Extremely friendly proprietor and staff. Give them a try. I an sure you will become a regular. Dan Osmon Oregon, US

Disgusting I ordered 2 kids cod meals and it was all smashed and soggy in the bag! Just because it's for children doesn't mean shouldn't have care taken in preparing and delivering! Then I pay extra for large curry sauce for it to be tiny and to top it off everything cold!

Love the food, chips and curry sauce was bang on as always. Very friendly owners and staff 👍

I hate writing negative reviews, but I feel it's right to share this one. This was a Tatnam 'large' haddock. I'm not sure I took the best photo to illustrate the scale but it's not even a big box! Sadly it was also quite dry. For the price I feel a bit hard done by, which is a shame as the delivery staff and manager I spoke to on the phone were lovely. Maybe I just got unlucky, but I'll probably go back to my regular chippy after this. On the plus side, chip portion was generous and pea fritter pleasant, so didn't go hungry!

Our local chippy for the last 15 months. We use it regularly and never had reason to fault the quality of whatever we purchase. The owners are passionate about the produce they sell which now includes a range of high quality sourdough pizzas which we have yet to try.

I am sorry to report that these are probably the worst fish and chips that I have had the misfortune to eat for a extremely long time. A previous review described exactly how we felt. These chips were rock hard on both ends, the batter on the fish was dry and brittle and the so called curry sauce was watery like running water, again sorry to give a review like that but who ever is running this establishment needs to here this.

Regularly go here for takeaways. Always good quality and value for money. Good variety of menu items. Try their thick shakes - large variety and very tasty. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Visited late Saturday night after long motorcycle trip. Service was great and food excellent. Fish and chips delicious. Curry sauce perfect. Very friendly owner. Wish it was my local chippy.

Godd staff, good food. What more could you want

Overpriced. Pea fritter cold in the middle. Chips were all hard ends. Curry sauce was watery. Used to be a lovely chippy has gone downhill it's a wonder it's still open.

Lovely staff and lovely chips! Been visiting for the last few years and I've never had a bad experience. Also, it's great for us as the chips are cooked in seperate oil to the meat products which is a must for me! Thanks guys 😊

Superb service and the large haddock in breadcrumbs was superb

I must say every time I go here the staff are incredible happy people friendly the food is so good the burgers my favorite cheesy chips which I picked up today and the chicken burger and two drinks thank you to the wonderful staff I

Visiting Dorset for the first time from London. Lovely fish and chips, good portion sizes. My boys especially loved the fish! Great service from the owner John, who went above and beyond for my little ones ketchup request! Very friendly guy who even gave us tips on nearby places to visit :)

Well presented chippie with outstanding varied menu. Excellent service, deliciously fried, reasonably priced so will be certainly be stopping by here next time I’m over in Poole. You can’t get the same quality anywhere in Bournemouth! Believe me, I live in Westbourne and grew up enjoying the expert stuff Mr Longs original teams used to deliver in Oakdale and Broadstone. 👌🏼

Dont even know where to begin. Disappointed is an understatement. First time trying here, and will definitely be the last. Chips undercooked, soggy, mush, but somehow had a rubbery consistency. Inedible, went in bin. Sausage had no flavour and barely any batter. Onions rings and chicken bites were the only things worth eating. Waited a good 20mins for food, yet there were no other customers. Staff were friendly and polite though, so that's something. 5 stars for customer service.

Lovely chips and a good choice of slushies. Service was excellent as well. Will definitely be back.

Really clean lovely selection of deals and prices really nice. for a regular chips and a battered jumbo sausage cost only around the 4 pound mark which is great they have a lovely selection of drinks aswell from slushes for a nice warm day and lots of cans can’t wait to come back next time and try some more stuff

I ordered of Just Eat, never again appalling service. So I decided to go to the shop myself to mention that an item was forgotten in my delivery. The really genuine lovely owner, apologised and gave me a massive yummy fishy delight. Apologies, I’m unable to take down my review from Just Eat. I was “hangry” I’m getting nowhere. My lesson has been learned. I will never order off Just Eat again. I think your chip shop is amazing.

Lovely food and great portion size

A brilliant find in Poole. Had a lovely portion of fish and chips, freshly prepared. The owner was a great guy who went out of his way for our little one as well.

Excellent chippy which has great variety on the menu. Some of the menu items you wouldn’t expect and are great. The piri chips were actual chilled potatoes. Great portion sizing too. The guys working in the shop were great to speak to whilst waiting. Thanks again.

Friendly staff. Very good food. Thank you very much!

Excellent fish n chips and great service too! Was staying in air BB close by and discovered this little gem.

Fish was tasteless chip was dry not worth the money!never again waste money

What can I say the best fish and chips I have had for a long time. We had the cod freshly cooked why you wait. Batter on the fish was light which was perfect. Fish was lovely and white. Chips great. And to top it off the homemade tartar sauce was outstanding. Would definitely be back. When visiting Poole. Great service.

Amazing place! Staff were so welcoming and lovely, I bought one of their new red boost slush puppies and was very impressed. Tasted just like redbull and very good price too! Would definitely recommend this place

Staff are so friendly, portion sizes are brilliant and the food is great.

Lovely fish and chip shop, massive portion size!! Milkshakes are great too!!

Outstanding hospitality, worth a drive too . Will be back. Not many get a review like this

Had a large cod small chips, have to say the cod was beautiful the meat was all nice and white in the middle and the batter was nice and crispy not soggy and full of fat like some places. The chips must of been cut xtra large if I park round here again I will definitely be coming back

Best menu around including fish, chips and burgers. Owner is amazing and although not our nearest fish and chips, is by far our favourite. Amazing food which is great quality and thoughtfully sourced, fabulous friendly service and well priced.

Our portion of cheesy chips was embedded with mold

Outstanding food and service. I love the new breakfast idea and what makes it even better is the quality of ingredients which shows in the end result great selection of food and very tasty. I can personally recommend the toasted BLT and egg Benedict Yummmmm

10/10 everytime. Amazing breakfast & such good food! Order at least twice a month, and they get it right every time!

1st time using this chippy. Fab that they deliver. Took a bit longer than expected BUT I live far out and the driver was so lovely. Food was delicious, big portions. John the owner was brilliant and really helpful with a small issue. Thank you guys, will be back. 👏👍

Food was nearly stone cold, found a hair in the fish batter that certainly did not match mine, had to microwave my meal and made the chips even soggier

Cleanest' Spacious and freshest chippy i ever been in the service is friendly and professional and the food tastes great just had some of there chips on Tiger bread with a nice cup of tea. Lovely!

Amazing value for money. Food was really good and are very affordable especially compared to other local chippies.

Food prices have gone up and I feel like portion sizes have gone down a bit but still probably the best chips in the area.

Great burgers and lovely chips with friendly staff, def a place to go

Maybe was just lack of lucky but never again

Had cod and chips, the fish was mostly crispy batter hardly and fish in it, very disappointed in it , large cod as well, won't be buying fish again, chips and the rest we ordered was ok, chips portion very large, just a shame about the cod really

I’ve been going in for over a year now, everytime the food is delicious and the owner takes care of us. Portion sizes are great and good value for money. Even tried the frickles upon his recommendation, not too bad 😋 Highly recommend!

Easily one of the best Fish and Chips shops I've been too. Extremely generous portion sizes and value for money. It was great to taste a proper British chippy again. The staff even including a delivey driver whilst I was waiting were very friendly and food served both promptly and deliciously. Highly recommend this place because if you want a great feed, value for money and a friendly customer experience this is certainly your spot 😋👌👍

First time here, but definitely won’t be the last, I only had chips but they were the absolute best, looking forward to getting a meal next time

Need a lesson in respect, and not the “best” like they brag so much.

Owners lie on the reviews, gave me quite a laugh, worst fish n chips I’ve ever seen and poor business decisions especially how they talk to others.

Bad business, you can tell there is an act put on for customers as all the staff look miserable and are quite rude to each-other as well by the looks of it, edit: noticed the owner makes up a story about them in his replies to the reviewers to make them look bad despite them having no proof who they are whatsoever, these owners are not good people, anyone smart will see that.

Amazing restaurant with great food! Absolutely love this place! Best fish and chips we’ve ever had! Owner and staff are all so polite and lovely. Portion sizes are great! Everything tasted amazing! Can’t fault a single thing. It really was delicious and we will definitely come back! Thank you so much for everything!

We ordered from here for dinner on 08/08 and was literally the worst fish n chips I've ever had...no exaggeration! Everything just tastes reheated and the battered sausages barely had any batter on at all...like they were cooked off....then through in the fryer with batter on. We won't be ordering again

Loved our fish and chips tonight! Service was fantastic even though it was busy. Very welcoming staff, will definitely be returning soon. Thank you !

Most fish and chips shops are much the same but Tatnam's is better in every way, including quality, speed and value. Best I've ever been to in 73 years of extensive UK travel.

We've enjoyed Tatnam for a while now as a family of four - the little pups menu is perfect, our girls are always welcomed and a bag of chips never goes a miss for the adults. Today our daughter asked for fish chips with all of the extended family! Well a huge order later and the food was great, delivery on time and memories made!! Thanks as always - number 34 👍

Haven't been here in a while, however today went for their lunchtime deals. What can I say they've upped their game and everything was on point. Would definitely travel further than my local for this.

Fabulous fish and chips every Wednesday on way to speedway. And sometimes a cheeky spam fritter!

Friday is fish night and fish cakes didnt disappoint. A meal and a half literally fish was an awesome size and so fresh. See you again soon. Forgot to mention how friendly the owners and staff are. Always use Tatnam fish shop when family come down. They have a loyalty card which I have used. Its my number 1 chippy. You won't be disappointed.

Wow wow wow. Great fish & chips for the Mrs and double Smashing cheeseburger & chips. Great food and worth every penny.

Wow I know prices have gone up in all chip shops, but this one is well worth the price the portion sizes are great. By far best value for money I've found so far for chip shops I've been to lately. So filling and satisfying.

Just been in as I won the competition on Fb and was also my first time here the Owner & staff were all very friendly and cheerful, such lovely people, Great portion sizes and quality of food, battered cod was really nice! My son loved the cod. The chocolate brownies taste amazing😀Will definitely be returning was all delicious Thank you very much we all enjoyed our food x

Great food with very friendly service from John. And a bonus of 20 % off for blue light card holders. Will definitely be a regular.

The food was a real mix, we had fish and chips, peas, curry sauce and jumbo sausages. Unfortunately, the sausages were really bad and the kids didn't enjoy them at all. The mushy peas were very dry which for mushy peas is an achievment. The curry sauce was not to our taste, was watery but I guess this can be personal preference. However, that being said.. the fish was cooked fresh and this was genuinely great. No complaints at all. The chips were good too, great portion size in the large. Overall price was expensive, but this I don't mind if quality is good. On this occasion it didn't feel value for money across the selection, but the fish and chips were good. Friendly server and no complaints about the service.

Good service, food, and prices usually order for lunch every now and then. Never had any issues. 😎

Fantastic food and amazing value for money! By far the best chippy we've found locally, we'll definitely be back. We ordered on a Friday evening and the delivery was surprisingly fast and super fresh, too.

Excellent quality, good prices and the best tartar sauce ever.

10/10 service, great food… best fish and chop shop ever. If you’re thinking of coming here, get in the car and get driving, you won’t regret it x

We stopped at Tatnam fish and chips after long journey with two starving toddlers. Not only food was delicious and very affordable but staff was extremely helpful and kind. Very highly recommend this place, lovely food, great prices and fantastic customer service.

10/10..alround:) Greeted with no que , A lovey smiley man served me. Minium wait time. For 2xcod chips ..1with mushy peas. Other with curry sauce. Lovely lemons to squeeze on fish! We paid £6 each. =£12! Good price. Impresses..would deffo’ go for the lunch time menu again:) yum:) My friend said the same:) Cheers :) Lucy & Ryan:)

Wonderful lunchtime special. The owner couldn’t be more accommodating in assisting my wheelchaired brother to have a relaxing lunch. Keep up the great work.

Without doubt the best fish and chip shop I've ever been to. Freshly made, delicious food and service top notch!!!!

Fantastic food Great service Generous portions value for money

Great fish and chips!! Great people too

Used to love this place once it was under new management, now I get charged £30 for 2 nasty sweaty burgers an 2 large chips an curry sauce, they forget the curry sauce an on my next visit a while later they not even open when they say are. Closing 15 mins early. Back to lakeside... bit posher but worth it. R.I.P RODEO BURGER

The worst fish and chips I've ever had, the oil was definitely old and made the meal taste horrible, battered sausage was disgusting

Ordered at very busy time ,staff were calm and controlled. Good value for money and food was very good

Just been in for the first time with my husband and son. Owner was very friendly. Great portion sizes and quality of food, battered cod was really nice! Will be returning. Prices slightly high but then all fish and chip shops have increased prices so it’s in line with others and a better quality than others in the area we have tried

Best chippy about wanted to try something new and got suggested the double bacon cheese burger if you fancy a treat get it!!!

Changed review due to new management, Jon and his team are excellent and friendly, consistently high standards and quality has been raised, must try the burgers.....

Good food, fast service, only ordered fish and chips but all was good, would use this place again, staff was polite and friendly

Wow. Wow. And again, wow. Just had the belly smasher burger and it was absolutely delicious! I originally ordered a portion of chips as well but was advised to share a large portion with my wife's fish and chips instead. So glad I did or I would have wasted a load of chips! It was juicy, tasty, and massive. And what they don't tell you is they use a pretzel type bun as well that adds even more flavour to it. Top marks from me! Oh and the wife said that the fish was lovely as well👍

Ordered fish and chips. Good quick service, with a light batter on the fish. Delicious. Definitely order again

Used to have to drive down to Lakeside at Asda to get good quality fish and chips though I live near to Tatnam. Now under new management the Tatnam Fish and Chips is amazing. Really fairly priced and high quality fish and chips. Thank you.

Lovely fish and chips and savaloy best we had friendly staff to from Freddie 😁

Cracking haddock and good chips all served with a smile. Also some interesting specials on the menu which I'm looking forward to trying next time.
