The Chippy in Waveney

Absolutely disgusting the gravy came as water, no taste to it! The wrapper was melted into my cheese. Had to pick the wrapper from my cheese. Curry sauce was cold very disappointing

Best fish and chips I've had in a good while. Friendly service too!

Absolutely brilliant food everytime I come in. Best chip shop in town - by far!

Lovely fish and chips and great friendly service from the young man serving us. Came across this place by accident but would certainly return.

Very friendly staff and very very nice food xx

Arrived close to closing time. The food , traditional haddock and chips was amazing . Made to feel very welcome . The waitress was a perfect host and very professional . Thank you for not rushing me and the top class service

Reasonably priced, very tasty, and fish cooked to order. Portion sizes were quite good for the price, too. The curry sauce was to die for as well; honesty some of the best I've tasted in a long time. I did find the saveloy a little on the small side, but tasty nonetheless. Overall, I'll definitely be coming back. I can't believe this place has been on my doorstep for so long!

Food is fantastic and staff are very pleasant

Lovely fish and chip shop. Great food and warm friendly welcome. What was greatest however was the kind caring way the owner took the time to chat with elderly customers, asking after them and offering any help they needed. Clearly at the heart of the community and very inspiring.

Been coming to the chippy for a while now, they have always maintained high standards and the staff are always very welcoming, more then Happy to recommend

Lovely sausages. Lovely chips. Great service.

Seeing the various awards from TripAdvisor made us feel confident about having decent fish and chips,but it was downhill from then. There was no haddock left (this is lunch time) so we ordered cod and lemon sole both with small chips to take away. They were cooked fresh, but when we settled to eat them we were a bit shocked to find that only one was with chips. Our Second disappointment was the dripping fish in oil and the limp doggy chips. The only upside was that the fish itself was well cooked and of good flavour. Wouldn't reccomend, and will not return, there are better fish and chip shops in the East coast.

Very careful with gluten free. Fabulous haddock and chips. Thank you

This chip shop and restaurant never fails to produce really great food served with a smile!!!! Wish I lived near enough to eat my lunch every day there.

Excellent take away haddock and chips at a great price. Friendly service. Ate it looking out over the sea 🙂

Lovely place and great staff. My husband and I were served by a young man. He was very friendly and attentive. No issues with anything - absolutely fantastic. Didn't have to wait long to order and food arrived to our table hot. Food cooked to a high standard. Good value for money. Would 100% recommend this place

We visited The Chippy resturant on Saturday 14th September in the evening for a family meal. It was our first time visiting Lowestoft and this place was recommended to us by a young lad in the pier arcade. We got parked right outside and was greeted with a warm welcome. The young lad who served us was polite and friendly. The whole place is spotlessly clean and has plenty of ornaments / pictures on the wall to look at. Our order was taken quickly and food came out without much of a wait. It was DELICIOUS! The kids are not overly keen on chips, but seemed to had eaten all of them before their meat! Which is rare! They were so nice. We had a mixture of, battered sausage, chicken nuggets and a cheese burger. It was all so nice. The kids meal comes with ice cream, 2 scoops of choice and choice of sauce. Needless to say they enjoyed this. We will definitely be returning again. The whole bill, including the drinks came to under £10 a head! For a family of 4, 2 adults 2 kids this is a very affordable dinner. We live 2 hours away and we are already thinking about returning!

Good takeaway service. Only waited a few minutes. Nice and hot. Would recommend. Polite staff. Nice and clean space.

We were really looking forward to finding a good fish and chips shop in Lowestoft snd walking around to find out one. When we excitingly found one it had a queue so we had high hopes of the place . The I assume the ‘owner’ overconfident middle aged man with slightly spikey hair was dismissive of customer , he looked a customer in the eye and she asked for her order then he dismissed her and said he was asking someone’s behind her who wasn’t even looking , then made her order. The customer that was dismissed took it well and remarked ‘favouritism’ is it . He laughed finding his rude behaviour funny( must be only to himself ) as no one else was laughing. We then waited for a young get boy( looks in his teens) to serve us. Asked about the vids bites he went to get them , the ‘owner’ said he will get them even though he was even though he was busy serving the above customer . I’ m he said they can wait , we were fine with that. We saw them they very small so decided on getting a whole fish . We then asked to confirm a couple of prices then decided on a large plaice and chips. it would take longer to order but we were willing to wait. The ‘owner’ went to the back saying regular plaice the younger guy went to the back to back to remind him it was large. he was dismissive of the young boy if he asked anything. When it was finally ready it was wrapped and presented to us as ready. I was surprised we were not asked if we wanted salt or vinegar or wanted it wrapped or open. I had to tell him to open it put salt and vinegar on it and lift the fish to put salt in the chips underneath and we wanted it open to have by the beach .They asked everyone else ?? This was disappoint but when we ate it the fish had a fishy smell we suspect it was not scaled or washed as fresh fish should not smell as we have obviously had this fish elsewhere and happy with the taste. The chips were tasty . Overall a disappointing experience due to the ‘owners’ attitude and the fish taste would not recommend the plaice

Great place to eat fish and chips!! Food very tasty! Staff very friendly and helpful whenever we are back in town we will come back!!

Staff were friendly and enjoying themselves, food was brilliant.

Love that they do gluten free batter. Lovely fish and chips freshly cooked

Had the Haddock & Chips with a curry sauce to eat in their seated area. Did some research before for what the locals say is the best fish and chips in Lowestoft and this was always mentioned. Chips were perfect but the batter on the fish was outstanding and the haddock itself was a huge fillet perfectly cooked fish. Lots of choice on the menu with special deals for when dining in including Lemon Sole. Staff were great too!

Us 2 essex ladies rolled in after the pub not drunk lol, on a relaxing day without the kids, we had a great laugh with the owner and his nefew who were working and everything we ordered was lovely! My plaice tasted of the sea and batter was amazing and my friends pancake roll and sausage was amazing too. Locals were all willing to laugh with us, and we felt very welcome. Great food, great staff! See I told u I'm the one that leaves reviews on here lol 😆 Was fab and will definitely return, ps pickled battered gherkins aren't for me I'm sad to say but battered crab sticks, we liked!! Lol thanks for the laugh and lovely food! And omg those chips were sooo good too.

Best chippy I've had in a long while, I would recommend this to everyone. Plus, the young man called logan, was very helpful when taking my order. The place was very clean as well and the service was quick and reliable.

Great to eat in or take away cannot fault the food or service.

The staff are friendly and welcoming. The food is cooked fresh to order. It has a nice little restaurant inside if you wanted to stay in instead of taking it away. They even do Gluten free food all day if you ask. Overall, happy with the experience 🙂

Thank you for solving my son's wish for a sausage roll - a sausage in a bread roll - with BBQ sauce. He is an adult with a learning disability and he was so pleased that the team made his bespoke order! The chips were absolutely delicious!

A great place for a fish and chip lunch. Very fresh fish, lovely crispy batter and a good selection of sides. Children's portions were a good size. Service was friendly and timely. Good toilets too.

Great service, friendly staff, delicious food. Best fish and chips in lowestoft

Everything you can ask for in service.

Very good hot food, excellent service.

Great fish and chips, or even a multitude of other items to have with some lovely chips. Recommend chip shop/ fish and chip restaurant, it is brilliant!!!!

Amazing food and great quality for money. Would highly recommend!

OUSTANDING. great little chippy /restaurant. We came in from out of the area. Net by a lovely young man who seated us and took our order. Everything was cooked fresh and. IN BEEF DRIPPING I had large cod chips peas a roll and pickled onions. My husband had large plaice chips and curry sauce and we both had a shandy soft drink. After Al little wait while they cooked the food we were presented with the most delicious fish and chips The quality of the fish was lovely and the temperature the food was cooked at gave us fluffy crisp chips and crispy batter which allowed the dish to steam beautifully inside it. At £39 fish and chips is no longer a cheap meal but I’ve paid more for less quality and definitely nothing like as good as the food was here. Well done guys. A lovely clean establishment food served on. Proper plates cooked and served by people who very clearly have high standards 10/10 👏👏👏👏👏

Lovely place,lovely food,lovely people :)

What A lovely little find of 1 street back from the promenade at Lowestoft, pet friendly which was a great start, bright, fresh clean seating area, very welcoming the lady behind the fryer, when seated a young man asked if we were ready order, which we were, fresh mugs of tea lovely, a choice of haddock or cod, food was freshly cooked, golden brown crispy batter, delicious, a defo return when were bk down from Yorkshire 5 star with out a bought, prices very sensible too

Always just lovely food and the staff are 👍

Lovely place to get some fish and chips, also gluten free options! 👌

Wonderful fish and chips, served by super friendly people. Absolutely deserves 5 stars! Not to be missed. Thank you so much!

Love it here! Go to place for Chip & Fish!

We love this chippy and always get fabulous food. Really reasonably priced too

Very nice food very clean and fresh best chippy in lowestoft

Amazing local fish and chips shop, great portions and super tasty. Staff is very friendly

Absolutely friendly guys. Think the restaurant bit was shut but they allowed us to sit and eat our chips.

Great chicken and chips. Staff very pleasant and the whole place was lovely and clean. We’ll done all.

Good food, good service, will come again.

Absolutely fantastic fish n chips. Fish was superb.

Came in a couple days ago with my friends for some quick dinner. Was very disappointed that a tall, brunette man was very rude and very minimal help to us. Felt very unwelcome in the chippy and will definately not be returning anytime soon, atleast not until they get rid of this man. Utterly disappointed. Chips were also very mouldy and green. Not good for the price. Also not a very hygienic place overall.

Great food, great service (we ate in). Batter was lovely and crispy 😋

The place is nicely decorated and clean. The toilets are very clean and have matching accessories the only downside was no baby changing area. The young man who served us was very helpful and polite also attentive, overall a good place to eat.

It’s exactly what you want from a fish and chip shop.

Lovely chips, and the fish cooked well. Big portions. We ate inside and the restaurant was tastefully decorated. Gluten free available. Recommended.

One of the best fish and chips I've had. The battery was wonderfully crispy, and light. I've had soggy and greasy fish and chips in the past, not this one. The batter also tasted lovely. The haddock was fresh and juicy inside. Wonderful mushy peas too. Our children left clean plates. Loved the decor with a shabby chic style, and the service was top-notch. I would definitely recommend. I wish I lived closer, this would be my go to!

Great staff, so friendly and switched on. Neat and tidy. Reasonable prices. Good variety. Close to the beach. Fresh chips. Unusually nice crockery for a fast food restaurant. Nicely done.

Popped in for a lunchtime snack on the go. I have rarely seen a restaurant as clean as this one. The toilets would grace a 5 star hotel. For a little old chippy in the high street, this plaice (sic) is wonderful. And good food and friendly service to boot.

Amazing Fish and Chips, Tommy and all other staff were polite and accommodating. Overall, great experience.

We were looking for somewhere to eat in lowestoft and we found "the chippy" excellent service, plentiful and very tasty food. Recommend and Will definitely visit again.

workers were SO kind!! food was made so fast

Had a lovely chippy wrap yesterday omg was to die for

Always use The Chippy, friendly staff always made to feel welcome. Food A1! Highly recommended!

The food was fantastic could not fault it, everything was cooked fresh. My only complaint was a brat running round the back room and into the cooking area screaming as loud as he could and staff did nothing to control him, this set my PTSD and Anxiety to high which put a downer on my visit

Great place for lovely fish and chips. Good quality ingredients and friendly staff. Very clean also.

Brilliant Fish and Chips. I ate in and had the Lemon Sole n chips. Place is clean and tidy. Staff where friendly Alicia and Tommy. Will definitely be coming back and highly recommend. Halloween 🎃 decorations are a nice touch.

Everything about this place is amazing! Service, hygiene, taste… would definitely come back if visiting again!

Great hallowe’en display and great food

Nice food good people helpful and fast😁

Amazing Food and Amazingly Friendly Service!!!

Die besten Fish&Chips seit sehr lamger Zeit. Es lohnt sich, dafür extra hier hin zu fahren. Die Mitarbeiter sind überaus freundlich. Es war toll hier. Und die Portion war echt riesig.

I had gluten free haddock and chips. Excellent, very friendly service. Highly recommend

Premium prices for the restaurant but premium quality. Generous portions, especially for the kids and very very tasty.

Took a while to get served - didn’t seem to notice us. Then had to wait nearly 30 minutes. Staff chatting amongst themselves and then seemed to realise they didn’t have any chips in, making the wait even longer. Food fine when we finally got it, but won’t be going back.

Great customer service, great food and lovely workers! 10/10

Terrible! I had to wait 30 minutes for a cod and chips. Then the cod was over cooked, batter was nearly burnt and the fish was tough and chewy. The chips were cold. And it's more expensive than other local fish and chip shops that are far better quality. Not going there again!

I regularly come to Lowestoft to visit my cousin. Discovered The Chippy on my last visit and it was gorgeous. This visit was determined to try out the restaurant side of things. It was brilliant. Excellent food, lovely atmosphere and great service. The staff are wonderful. We where served by a young man who was polite, served us with a smile and knew his trade well. We will certainly be back again.

Awesome fresh fish and chips.. amazing service to go with the food! Friendly and polite.. definitely will go again.

Faultless experience , what a pleasure

Great food, very friendly and good price

Amazing and quick service by incredibly nice staff. Always tends to us with no complaints. Food is very tasy every time without fail with a wide range of options of what to eat Very nice and friendly atmosphere. I would absolutely recommend this place for this who fancy a quick fish and chips down near the beach

Lovely chips, and fantastic service. I thought I'd try this place having heard it is the best chippy nearby and am glad I did

Lovely Gluten free fish and chips

Lovely gluten free battered cod and chips. Made to order so really fresh. Batter was crispy. Decent sized portion too.

A fantastic chippy. We ate in and the service was quick and very friendly. The chairs have cushions which made all the difference for a comfortable meal. Food quality was excellent, we will definitely use them again the next time we visit the area. 100% recommended 👌

Excellent all round , service and food second to none . Can not recommend highly enough . Restaurant was spotless .

Super lekkere fish&chips…. Nette en schone zaak

Visited for the first time last night, decided to eat in. The restaurant is lovley and clean,spacious and lovley decor. We both ordered the cod and chips, with a side order. Arrived and looked nice and fresh, the cod was very tasty, the chips nice and golden. Both accompanied by mushy peas. Really nice , well portioned meal. Unfortunately meal let down by the waitress, who shoved a tray on the table, to remove my partners empty plate, I was still eating my meal. I felt rushed into eating the remainder of my meal, in fact I didn't finish it. Would have been nice if she had waited until we had both finished our meal.

Got to be the worst chips I have had Over cooked and greasy

First time visit, ordered fish n chips which were cooked to order. Friendly staff. Sat on the seafront, and they were delicious. Would recommend 👌

Lovely gluten free fish and chips

The chips and sausages are well-cooked and very tasty. The staff are very friendly and chatty. The building is kept very clean and tidy too. I would recommend this chip shop lots.

Really lovely staff, so polite and welcoming. Would 100% return. Food was absolutely amazing.

Thank you for some of the nicest fish and chips we have ever had. Thanks you

i walked in to the shop and was greeted by a very kind man who served us straight away with some scrumy chipys I rate this one of the best shops ever

Great fish & chips, amazing hygiene standards and great chat with owner

Visited this place for the first time earlier this afternoon, was not disappointed! Very friendly service, food freshly cooked & tasty. Looks really clean & nicely decorated inside too! & they didn't mind my dad & I using the toilet whilst waiting for the breakdown people to come fix our car! I would definitely recommend & visit again. Many thanks!

Always great food here. Nice and fresh and good quality ingredients. Would have been nice if the server/cook had just said, "be with you in a minute" or something to that effect as he went off to put a fish in for the previous customer. I felt a little ignored but I'm sure it was just an oversight as he was friendly when he did serve me

Passing through,read the reviews,had gluten free cod and chips It was excellent,friendly service mon 27th feb 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Had the Tuesday special of fish and chips. They were truly superb. The best chips I’ve tasted in a long time. Will definitely be returning and sharing this tasty find!

Friendly staff, delicious food, and a good location.

Great fish and Chips cooked to order quickly and friendly service
