The Blue Fin in East Lindsey

Best place for a Donna kebab and chips £8.50 friendly atmosphere good recommend going to bluefin chippy service is good 5-star restaurant

Just been for mini fish, chips and mushy peas, absolutely gorgeous. Will be back again Saturday

Always good food and brill service

I've tried most of the fish n chip shops in skegness and at the moment this is the best keep it up

It's not my favourite by far. It was overpriced for me. Not good value 😕.

Great food , hot and fresh . Service with a smile 😃

Mini fish and chips and kids chips and fishcake £11.90 fish was almost all batter I only tried it because Neil on YouTube recommended won't be returning at them prices

Just called in and got a portion of chips, they were gorgeous, and we will be going back for definite.

£14-£15 for 2x large fish and 1x large chips! It's worth driving from nottingham just for the chippy! If you've got an EV of course 🤣🤝 Jokes aside not overly busy when I went. Served very quickly, was made fresh within 5 minutes, was perfect batter on the fish and the fish was full! Better quality than down nottingham for sure. Lovely family run business, came here after watching a youtube review otherwise, wouldn't of known really, we chose to come from the seafront back to the caravan (richmond site) and popped in on the way back. Brilliant.

First visit to the Blue Fin Fish Bar and certainly won’t be the last. Spotlessly clean and great friendly service. Went for the special of Fish and chips for £5.95, really good chips were great and the fish superb nice crispy batter and quality fish. This will be my regular whenever I’m in Skegness, highly recommended.

Staff in there are so rude if your food are as bad as your staff god help you rubbish customer service should be shut down!

Had battered sausage, chips, and curry sauce. Great friendly service but it’s cash only which always concerns me, and the food was bland.

Never tried the Blue Fin before and today after much debate me and the better half decided on here . I will say the place is spotless , very clean . I had the haddock and chips she had the cod and chips . They were about the same in size and price . Mine wasn't a bad bit of fish but it wasn't the best I've had in skeg on our travels , it looked big but didn't have much inside . The Mrs said her cod was ok but much of the same as mine, could of been better . All in all not bad and we gave it a 7 out of 10 .

Food and service both excellent, however, over £20 for two cod and chips is a bit steep.

Wonderful restaurant. So friendly and welcoming. Delicious food.

Burger and chips cost nearly £8 , just a handfull of chips and the burger was just ok , not very good value .

Just off the high street 'fantastic chip shop' beautiful food cooked fresh, good sized portions, sevice second to none, friendly, clean outside and in

Decent chippy, ordered cod and chips twice... batter nice and crispy, fish fresh and flaky, tasty chips although could've done with a few more, nice seating area outside and friendly service, will be back 👍

Hi just had fish chips and curry sauce the food was amazing and was freshly cooked.Got to be the best fish shop in skegness Please give it a try: you won't be disappointed trust me

We had a lovely service and most beautiful batter on the cod. A really nice place to dine.

Tried for the first time,2 x mini fish chips and peas,came out fresh and very tasty will be coming back,please keep up the quality. Many thanks.

Bloody disgusting Highway Robbery £2.90 for about 17 Chips

Didn't go there, have been before, will not be going again anymore

I had a burger which was swimming in grease so much so it soaked the bun under it and made it not nice to eat, my dad had "haddock" which it clearly wasn't....also very greasy and more batter than fish.....the chips had been fried in very old oil making them dark on the outside and semi raw in the middle.....£20 bill was way too much for the standard of food. And before we get a reply of "you didn't say something was wrong" I didn't want to eat anything else from there. So we just walked out £20 lighter having not eaten my burger or chips. WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND TO ANYONE!!!!!!!

They conned me. 0 stars if possible. I ordered some food to take out. They asked if I wanted salt or vinegar and I said no as I detest the taste of salt as well as it being bad for people, but there was still traces of salt in it. They insist on cash only - I wonder why ? I can only think of one reason - typical sea-side business, even though I am local. Most importantly, they have a notice saying they are obliged by law to charge 25p for a plastic bag, but THEY ARE LYING. The government says 10p. Also, they put it into a bag and when I said that I did not need a bag, the woman said " It's easier". After I had eaten, I added up the prices and realised that they hadn't given a bag because it was easier, they had charged for it even though I said that I did not want it. The bag was a small, really flimsy bag that is impossible to re-use and costs them literally a fraction of a penny to buy, so they have made an extra 24.9p on the sale. Imagine, over a season, how much extra money they are conning out of people. I will also contact Trading Standards because I never entered into a contract to purchase a plastic bag but was forced to buy one. They display no terms and conditions that state that buying a plastic bag is compulsory if one wants to purchase food.

Food is really good cooked to order really enjoyed it was a little bit on the expensive side for a takeaway

Very nice cod & chips and peas Food came out on very hot plates Not many places do that A very clean restaurant Very nice staff

Easily the best chippie in Skegness! Fish was fresh and the batter crispy, just perfect. Chips where incredible. We will come here every time we visit!

What can I say? Clean, friendly and the food was outstanding! Three cheers to you all!👍

Omg finally found a fish n chip shop that knows how to make chips crispy n not soggy

Decent food, quite tasty! It’s quite pricy for the portions and a pain that it was cash only. But overall still a positive experience. About the same price as closer chippies.

Food and staff Very good.just spoilt by the ignorance of the person sitting in the entrance!

Fab Fish Chips n Mushy Peas. Fish was cooked to order then brought out as I sat outside complete with salt and viniger dispensers. Was expensive like everywhere of late although they had many offers advertised I was pushed for time so did not look at them and simply ordered my favorite. Highly recommend and will certainly revisit

Clean Lovely fish and chips, though slightly small for monetary value Unfortunately made to feel not valued as a customer on numerous occasions throughout dining in experience on this occasion which is such a shame Has great potential to be turned around

Best chippy weve been to for a long time. Really lovely food ,staff very friendly, will definitely be back. Very reasonably priced.

Fresh food great service lovely atmosphere

Our second visit. Once again I was allowed to park my scooter just inside the door. Restaurant absolutely spotless again. All of us ordered haddock and chips. My mum said she had never tasted haddock like it and my aunt said it was the best fish she had ever had. Brilliant service, food cooked fresh to order. Amazing place to eat. Best fish and chips in Skegness. We will be back

Very nice people running this place .I had chilli and chips yummy

Haddock and chips were recommended and was not disappointed! They were great thanks.

I can't thank ALL of the staff enough for the wonderful warm welcome myself and my family received on our first visit whilst on holiday and the food was absolutely beautiful, Freshly cooked, hot,and very tasty, the fish is outstanding! So immediately after out first meal we knew we would be back again, So we did! The very next day 😆 Our son chose the lamb shank and he had finished before anyone else and said its the nest he's ever had, our 8 year old said her dinner was even better than McDonald's!! So to all of the staff at The blue fin, THANK YOU ! Your all amazing at what you do, and we're still on holiday and we will be back again for the 4th time before Sunday when we go home,

Had the best fish and chips in a long time ,well worth a visit

If I have had better fish and chips I can't remember when or where. Absolutely spot on and cooked to perfection. Service was very good and the eating area spotless. I will have no qualms in recommending this place to anyone. Family or friends. I will definitely be using them again and 5 stars was no enough. Thank you Blue Fin for brightening my visit.

Proper chips! Properly cooked to perfection! I had scraps too delicious 😋

The blue fin was not our first choice but due to another nearby restaurant being full we came here and wow am I glad we did. Firstly I was allowed to bring my mobility scooter just inside the door so I wasn't anxious about it being outside, secondly the whole place was spotless. We chose a comfy seat and perused the menu and the specials. My partner chose king prawns, haddock. Chips and curry for me and my friend had cod and chips. Sadly jacket potatoes had sold out but new potatoes were available to my partner and he proclaimed these as delicious along with his prawns. My haddock was unbelievably soft and full of flavour and wow the chips were the best I've ever had and the curry went with them perfectly. My friend was in heaven with her cod and was still talking about it on the way home. From now on for fish and chips in Skegness this is the only place to be. Before I forget the staff were so lovely and welcoming and the food was cooked to order and so fresh and hot.

First visit here, & won't be our last ,piping hot cod & chips & peas ,sat inside as very hot weather. Lovely large flaky fish, very tasty , so glad I looked on TripAdvisor for a good one ,after eating at many of the others in town that are not so good. Friendly staff too, restaurant nice & clean, only downfall is the cash only ,luckily had cash on us that day . Definitely recommend, & we will return when visiting the area again. Thank you.

If you’re in Skegness this place is well worth a visit. The fish was beautiful and the chips were fresh. I’d happily go again.

Visited again, this time on a weekend in May. Food just as fresh and tasty as before. Lovely friendly lady working in there. Back to plates and cutlery in the restaurant which is nice. Still busy again but good came out promptly. I did notice they closed at 5pm today, so out of season the opening hours are reduced.

Small portions what we thought on mini fish special for £5.95 twice but charged £16.30 the extra was just for sitting outside on there benches so charging £2.20 so for that reason wont be back as other in skegness dont charge did not even get chips brought out to us nice lady inside serving

Absolutely brilliant food, lovely couple who own and run it, nothing is too much trouble and as far as I'm concerned the best Fish & Chips in Skegness. Thanks guys x

Blue Fin Fish Bar was great, very clean and spacious, the chips were perfect and not swimming in fat, the fish and batter were really good too and a nice mug of hot tea went down well with it. The staff were very nice and friendly. I would recommend a visit.

Called today and wasn’t disappointed freshly cooked ….excellent fish & chips with great friendly service highly recommend.

Very disappointed with the opening times! This place was recommended to us when we moved to Skegness in May. Have tried numerous times but only once has it been open even though it's been shown as "open"! All attempts have been at tee time 5.00 - 6.00 pm. Real shame!

The last time I came here, I thought it was a pretty good chippy. The fish and chips were fresh and tasty.

Not impressed purchased a small tray of fish and chips. The fish had been a frozen deep fried fillet and the chips were hard. Threw most of it away it was so awful The cost of this meal with a can of tango came to £9.45. Would certainly not recommend.

Excellent fish and chips, staff very helpful.Will be back next visit.👍

Took our grandson for his lunch , service was fantastic & the fish & chips was amazing . Definitely coming back again . The best fish & chips we have had in skeg was

Nice wee chippy, delicious chips, seating inside & outside, staff are friendly, prices are decent, toilets inside, been here a few times

Food too expensive compared with alternatives in Skegness and didn’t expect it to be served in a polystyrene tray with a plastic fork.

Haddock, chips and mushy peas absolutely delicious. Lightest batter on fish and chips really crispy 🐟 👍

We visited here and decided to eat in. The service was good, the staff were very friendly. Was a little disappointed that the food in the cafe is still served in the takeaway trays rather than on a plate. The food was tasty, fresh and hot but portions a little small and not easy to eat in the small tray it was served in. They only offered plastic forks, no knives were available. The 20p a sachet of sauce also seemed a little steep!

We have been a few times to the Blue Fin over the years but that was the first time post pandemic. We were disappointed. The restaurant used to have proper crockery and cutlery and waitress service. Now it's order at the counter and although the food was brought to us,what a difference. Presented in polystyrene trays,plastic fork,no knives not even a serviette to wipe greasy hands. The tea was also in a polyfoam cup. The food is still good but the prices are not reflected in the change of service and was a little more than anticipated. Sorry but will be giving it a miss next time.

Has the best cod and chips I've had for a long time and a cracking cup of tea. Reasonably priced and lovely staff to boot! Thoroughly recommend!

Lovely fresh fish and chips! Not the cheapest but excellent quality and taste. Unfortunately the toilet was not the cleanest but as the restaurant was busy and there only is one it was understandable. The restaurant was lovely and clean

Went there for fish and chips this is really a takeout but has a facility to sit in. Food served in polystyrene trays.

The fish and chips were freshly cooked and nice, though I've never had such miserly portions very small fish & about 8 chips. In all for 2 portions with 2 teas (served in a small polystyrene cup ) for £23.50 !! Won't be returning !!

We were there for a day trip. There were so many fish and chips places to eat. It can be very confusing for visitors. At last we chose Blue Fin Fish Bar because of the advert by the road. It was reasonably priced. You need to ask for the promo price advertised Otherwise you get their normal price in shop. The portions were smaller but that suited us as are small eaters. It was a great idea to offer smaller portions for people like us.

Could have been the time of the day I went. They were closing up at 6.30pm but online it says they are open until 8pm. The portions are small. Chips and sausage were a kids portion with only 1 mini sausage. I thought it was expensive. 2 x fish and chips, chips and sausage, kid’s chips and chicken nuggets (you only get 3 most places sell 4) 3 cans of soda came to £33. All the food was nice, the staff was nice but there was not enough of it. You can sit in, sit outside or take out. They have toilets but we didn’t use them. They have parking outside.

Really a good place , clean , friendly 👌

The portion seen, with passport and credit card sized thing in the shot for scale, cost £7.95. Make your own decisions. (the food itself is very good, but the size is unforgiveable, I'd have felt it very expensive at £4) £7.95 though. Seven pounds and ninety five pence. £7.95. Can i sue for theft? 😂😂 Or mugging. Still, took my mind off other worries. Every cloud. £7.95 though....

So I got the cod and chips. They fry the food separately hence I went here. The Cod and chip was really nice. Seating inside and outside. Staff are accommodating too. There's parking right outside.

Been to this place twice before on visits to Skegness and on both previous visits it was a very good cafe this time I am afraid it was not so good with the food being served on polystyrene containers and using plastic forks instead of plates 🍽 and proper utensils, the standard of the food was pretty decent but my partner ordered scampi which saddens me to say they where a bit skimpy on scampi with just six pieces being given out, they have let there standard slip in a big way, and of course the food was overpriced, wont be back to this place again there are better places than this in Skegness

Didnt eat! just stopped by asked if the child could use there toilet they refused on the basis nothing was purchased so as they had that clientell atitude needless to say i didnt purchase anything just found the little one food and a toilet elsewhere.

So we used to visit the Blue Fin restaurant pre covid and it was very good. We last visited in April 2022 and was surprised and disappointed that the restaurant meal was not served on plates with proper cutlery or glasses for drinks. Let it...

Best chips ever had my partner had two portion ,always go there when in Skegness

The place was empty when we turned up, we ordered and when served a meal was wrong, so instead of correcting a £1 issue, over a £52 bill, a scene was caused, we were told we couldn't have a 1/4 with kebab meat, why? Because they don't do it, then when leaving I got a cone of chips with gravy and cheese and cost £5.20, the food was lovely but the customer service sucked

Came here today based on the reviews and was absolutely thrilled with our choice. You can sit inside or out or take away, all for the same price. To reflect this we sat in and food came in a tray and paper with plastic cutlery...

This is without doubt the very best Fish & Chips in the area. Great value for money too. Very clean with fast and friendly service. A MUST for all Fish & Chip lovers!

Delicious food and lovely staff😊.

Food cooked to order. The downstairs seating is now an area to eat your takeaway food. Been before in 2019 and we sat downstairs with table service, inside seating is a great welcome if you can't offer this. It was clean and tidy, and we...

Lovely quality chips and a good price compared to the chippies on the sea front there is seating inside and out if you want

The food is fresh but very over priced! Stood around for a while before being served. You have to pay for tomatoe ketchup on top of the extortionate price of fish and chips! Wouldn't go again!

All chips and fish cooked in vegetarian oil. Best fish and chips in Skeggy.

Absolutely delicious.we had cod chips mushy peas..we would definitely go back again..

Nice enough food but extortionate prices, small fish (feels like a fish bite and the off cuts from a full fish!), chips and curry sauce and a can for 3 £18! Wish I'd walked down chip alley and saved myself some money, would have been cheaper to get 2 pub meals for less than that....

went in for fish& chips the fish was full of batter chips and mushy peas were stuck together could not eat the food waste or £ 20 would not recommend put them in the bin will not be back

Fantastic food and lovely staff, best chips I have had from a chip shop! Very impressed and I will definitely be back!!

Absolutely brilliant fish & chips

A bit more than published on the the street but was very tasty, thanks

Nice people, absolutely awful battered sausage. Maybe I'm spoilt, but I haven't had as bad a sausage as that in forever.

Late lunchtime Maunday Thursday, the fish was delicious, the chips just right. Always cooked fresh, to order it may take a few more minutes to get your meal but, let's face it, it's well worth the wait This is probably the best 'Chippy' in Skeggy...

Delicious cod and chips. Tea made to specification by lovely staff. Enjoyed very much and will return

Always fresh cooked really nice food and clean ..staff always friendly toilets available we go there when ever in town 4 fish chips

Sat in for our fish and chips we were given plastic knife and forks which we had to pay extra for and eat out of plastic tray.

Not been a good experience had to pay for plastic knife and fork ans food served up in polystyrene tray.

Excellent seafood menu including sushi. Salmon was great with 2 vegetable sides. H had the seafood pasta dish which had scallops , mussels, shrimp, and blue fish in a garlic red sauce. Warm bread and a shareable caprese salad started our meal. Delicious key lime...

Love this chippy. In town, always enjoy the food and the staff are lovely. Would help if they accepted card payments though.

Friendly staff fish freshly cooked, cod,very nice fish and chips. Will go again.

Called in on Friday 10th and had a fish and chips,I’ve got to say the batter melted in the mouth has got to be one of the best fish and chips I’ve had,will definitely go back there next time I’m in skeggy

Got caught the first time by the special fish and chips on the board outside 2 mini fish and chips £11.90 very small portions so went a week later ordered 2 regular fish and a large portion of chips separately £12.50 , 60p more twice...

Great fish and chips! The fish was freshly cooked and delicious. The portion size was just right, so nothing went to waste. Definitely one of the best in town. The food was served on a tray with a wooden fork, like many fast food restaurants, so this wasn't an issue for me. I was very impressed with the food and service. I had haddock and chips, it was £8.05, so maybe not the cheapest in Skegness, but worth the money. Note, the times on Google are not correct for the winter as they close early. It is also cash only.
