Chips fried in vegetable oil (separately from anything else). One of the few places with vegan options (just a wrap & spring rolls, but still...).

Totally unimpressed with the food. We ordered 3 cod and chips to take home, but when we opened the boxes we actually had very thin tail ends of haddock or something else, It was certainly was not cod! The chips were small and bitty, not proper chip potatoes. The batter on the fish was pale, soggy and under cooked. Not a £10 plus fish and chips. However, the staff were present and friendly, otherwise it would have been just one star.

Don’t go here if disabled. Staff is awful we felt like we shouldn’t have been out. In the end we ended up leaving very upset. Thought we would give it a second chance to see if it had changed and nope. Still some members of staff that spoke and treated us like nobody. Management really needs to sort their staff out

We made our first visit on New Year’s Eve for our lunchtime treat of fish and chips with our Labrador. The whole staff made us welcome we where seated and our order was taken . Our meal was freshly cooked and even our dog was treated to a sausage free of charge . Would we pay another visit of course we will the next time we visit Skegness . Highly recommend to other dog owners

Just had a fish and chip lunch here. very tasty and 'pipping' hot.Staff were very friendly and helpful. The restaurant was spotlessly clean. The decor is very 'sea front' and reminded us of the old fashioned tea rooms of yesteryear. We'd certainly go there again.

First night in Skeg so came here for Fish and Chips [eat in]. i ordered haddock and chips, pretty sure what we got was cod and not haddock. [i know haddock and what i got was not haddock!!] I appreciate this place is a chip shop when all said and done but why do all kids meals have to be chips, there was not a NO CHIP alternative available [but that is standard across the UK for kids and we wonder why we have obese kids]. They claim to serve award winning fish and chips, not sure what the award was for. I live close to a real award winning fish and chip shop and this place does not even come close to being award winning. non-the less it was palatable but i do feel it was expensive. haddock and chips twice, chicken nuggets and chips for child, one coke, one lemonade and a kids drink. no change for £30 pretty expensive for bog standard grub paid less for better food in a decent pub

Only gave it 1 star because 0 wasn’t an option. Waited ages for the takeout. Ordered large cod and chips, portion size was very small, just as well as it didn’t taste great, fish batter was soggy. Asked for a batter sausage, received an unbattered one. Bread rolls and ketchup ordered didn’t get any of those either. The worst and probably the most expensive fish and chips I’ve ever had. I will be avoiding this place in the future.

Thought we’d start the day on our day trip to skeg with a decent breakfast,normal decent service and food,a bit expensive but worth it,not this time,50 min wait for our food,the lady serving us made us feel like we where putting her out and the bacon was just fat,all 4 meals where a let down,could of gone a few different places for half the price well let down,probably be the last time we visit the clock ☹️

My previous visit here was not at all that you would expect to get when you go for a meal and, with the benefit of past experiences, I should have known better than to try it onmce more. What a mistake. It was truly worse than awful. The so called food, was pre-pared and heated up in a microwave. How cay they expect to attract customers when this is the way they conduct business? When I complained about this to the staff, they were not at all interested and seemingly just brushed it off. Shameful!

Restaurant met mooi uitzicht op de klok die centraal op de rotonde staat. Prima biertje hier te krijgen en ook maar hier wat gegeten. Bestellen doe je aan de bar en je moet het daar ook zelf halen. Rib eye steak was redelijk, wel veel vet maar dat is normaal. Prima frietjes erbij en een kleine salade. Alles bij elkaar niet zoo bijzonder en ook niet echt goedkoop. Er zijn betere restaurants in Skegness maar voor een keer is het te doen.

Before a performance at the Embassy theatre, we stopped here with a friend for dinner, about 6pm. Menu has a good amount of choices, very reasonable prices. We all settled for £9.95 cod or place with chips, and choice of mushy peas, garden peas or beans. Also available was curry sauce or gravy. The price included a slice of bread and butter and tea or coffee. Large pot of tea = 2 cups of tea each. They were busy but our meals delivered in a short time. Great batter and fish, all excellent, staff helpful and friendly, the biggest wait was to pay for it at a booth. Would recommend.

Me and my wife ordered the fish platter - cod, fishcake, battered sausage with good helping of chips and a side. I enjoyed the lot and the place has had a make over and features little booths all themed like beach huts, staff are friendly and place is clean and has great views of the clock tower and you can sit and watch the world go by.

We hadn't been here for some time. But we'd seen the name had changed to Husseys and the interior had changed so we thought we'd try it again. We sat in one of the beach hut themed booths what a novel idea. I wasn't too hungry so had a chip cob which filled me up and was very nice. My hubby had fish and chips which he soon demolished but did let me try some fish which was beautiful. The price was quite reasonable too. Will definitely come again.

Very young staff, podium for seating which resulted in young staff saying hiya and pointing where to sit. Had to ask twice for bread & butter butter was just short of frozen. Fish was excellent chips served cold! Peas served in a horrible polystyrene cup. Tea very hot and good taste. General decor appalling! So moving forward, young people can give excellent service at the podium the greeting needs to be good afternoon, table for two? This is an excellent booth I have available! Not difficult. Get rid of the polystyrene tubs! Just put peas on a plate we don't need more rubbish to recycle. Decor good grief, awful rip it out and start again, customers want bright and clean lines not horrible pretend beach huts!. Food! Excellent fish - work on this make great chips and peas to go with it! Price was reasonable, with great decor and service it wouldn't even come into the equation.

Came to Skegness seafront for the day and stumbled across the Clock restaurant. Should have taken how empty the place was as a warning. Grumpy old blonde lady seated us a took our order. She then returned to say there was no ploughmans as chef had no cheese. Came back with a plastic basket which held our cutlery, serviettes and paper bill. The cutlery was clearly not washed properly andcwe made the waitress aware, she then brought back clean cutlery. We then waited quite a while for an empty restaurant, at time of ordering only one other table there had customers. The food eventually arrived by a more friendlier server. First impression they were good portions of food however the chips were slightly covered in specks of black, like burnt flecks probably from the fryer. Lots of bad chips too, some with eyes done clearly bruised potatoes and done just inedible. We finished and then had to take the paper bill yo the original server at a weird little kiosk nextvyovtge entrance. All very strange. We certainly wouldnt recommend or revisit. Photo is my finished plate. I had eaten enough!

Went to the coast on a whim recently ( set off to go food shopping and Ended up in Skegness!!!!). When we arrived we were both very hungry as we had missed breakfast thinking we would eat at the supermarket. As we crossed the road there was the Clock Restaurant and l wish we had carried on walking. I had the fish and chip special and my husband the ham and eggs. I don't know what the fish and chips were fried in but it had a terrible taste. The best thing on the plate was the mushy peas.

Soggy batter on the cod, chips reheated from the day before, all covered in a black crumb out of the fryer obviously. Did pay the special price of £7.99 luckily as was pointed out by the waitress but the staff look unhappy in their job, and I was told they are told not to mention the specials if the customer doesn’t notice the difference in price. Other half had breakfast and wasn’t impressed much either. Only chose this place due to it looking good from outside but it was a let down.

Fish and chips... Let's face it two ingredients, so when one has been reheated from earlier, but still cold because you can't reheat to much or it will burn, then I think £7.95 takes the pee, and the staff were useless and before I go I don't like being told where I'm going to sit.

Breakfast was the order of the day and with 2 hungry children we called in here. The menu read Big Ben breakfast which sounds just right as the kids and wife went for the smaller options. I was horrified when the large breakfast was only the same size as kids and they were a very poor portion. My kids were hungry still hungry after leaving the shop. Cheap sausage and beans that were tasteless. This restaurant is about profit only serving cheap food and poor potion.

Called in yesterday as it looked like a clean place to eat and not like many of the greasy spoon type cafes offering breakfast. Noticed that a standard breakfast was £6.99 so thoughts were must be good at that price! How wrong was I!! Extremely cheap sausage to the point they had that much cereal in them they’d have given a bowl of cornflakes a run for their money, then to top it all deep fried in old oil....absolutely vile! Then the beans, cheaper than cheap quality to the point they were a cream colour as they’d been watered down that much there was no juice.

Every time we've visited previously it's always been great. However, this visit there was my family and a friend's family. We arrived and were seated promptly along with another group. Our orders were taken quickly and got our drinks. Then we were in there an hour before our food came. They weren't busy and the table who arrived and ordered at the same time had theirs and had left! I could have understood if they were busy but they weren't as we went in just after 6pm. A member of staff walked round and I actually saw the panic on her face that we were still seated without food. They came over once and said food was on its way this was after half an hour..Our kids were getting tired and hungry. I had to go and find a member of staff 15 minutes later to ask what was happening and they then brought our food out which they had also messed up. I had ordered the haddock and chips and mine looked like a child's portion. I left hungry. They said they took our drinks off but it was not reflected in the bill.as much as the fish was cooked lovely we will not be returning.

On payment, when asked if everything was okay, I said not really and explained that my toddlers meal hadn't arrived so we'd eaten most of ours. She apologised but didn't offer a refund. Wouldn't return there.

We come here every time we visit Skegness as we know we are guaranteed brilliant food. There was six of us and something for everyone. The food is amazing the portions are huge, the prices are very reasonable and the staff are lovely. What else is there to say

Resturaunt priced burgers that I wouldn’t even feed to my dog. You can honestly get a better meal from McDonald’s. Menu says fresh chicken burger it came out it was a frozen processed mcchicken sandwich. Beef burgers were full of fat. Only thing that was enjoyable was the chips and the coleslaw. Even the salad was brown. Never again!! £40+ wasted it got left on the plate. Go elsewhere unless you just fancy a plate of chips!

Quite expensive for what you get. Nearly £10 for a standard prawn salad, nothing special. Wouldn’t asked for something else instead of sausage and chips however didn’t want to cause a fuss. Wouldn’t go again

Went there for late lunch. Ordered two haddock, chips and mushy peas £9.05 each and two knickerbocker glory for dessert. The meals arrived and they brought the dessert at the same time!!! Our fish was passable but the chips were scrappy and so hard they were inedible. We are the fish and left the chips. When the waitress came to clear away I mentioned the chips and she said she would let “them” know whoever “them” were. The no offer of a refund of any sort. I probably should have insisted on a refund but didn’t. We won’t be going back there. Looking at other reviews it seems others have had similar experiences. If you want fish and chips in Skegness I would suggest you look elsewhere!!!

Visited for breakfast. Lovely clean tables, great, smiley service. Toilets lovely and clean. Ordered a breakfast and poached egg on toast with a pot of tea. Breakfast served was lovely. Couldn't fault it at all. Lovely big windows and watch the world go by. Recommended!

Visited here with my husband. I ordered regular haddock and chips £7.95 and my husband ordered the all day breakfast £5.99 which included a pot of tea. The tea tasted absolutely disgusting. I don't know where they get their tea bags from but it must be the cheapest they could find and there was tea leaves floating in the pot too!! The all day breakfast was swimming in so much grease that it ruined the dish as all you could taste was the grease. The bacon was far too fatty and looked like it was literally just dipped in a frying pan of mucky fat. My fish was not too bad but again it was way to greasy and the chips were so hard, and scrappy that they were inedible. Definitely not worth the money and safe to say we won't be visiting again. You can get better chips from the chippy next door at a fraction of the price. So disappointed with this place.

Called in on the spur of the moment. I had the cod and chips with mushy peas, well cooked large piece of fish and plenty of chips my wife has a prawn sandwich, stated that she did not want the salad to save on waste. Meal arrived with salad but no Rosemarie sauce. Waitress soon corrected the mistake and gave extra sauce. All in all a really nice place to eat, clean and tidy throughout.

Myself, my partner and 5 year old daughter visited this restaurant as a last meal out for our weekend away to Skegness. We were welcomed at the 'take a seat' sign by a friendly face and polite lady who showed us where to be seated. We ordered food and drinks and though their menu advertises they are not a fast food restaurant ( with a brilliant little quote on the menu I must add) - it was actually served pretty quick and we were not left waiting long at all! I had ordered mushy peas on the side of my fish and chips and I was impressed and amazed that my peas came separately to the plate, giving the customer the option of eating alone or adding to the plate. (Myself being a fussy eater, it definitely is the little things that can make a customer smile!) I can not complain at the service my family have received this evening, the fish was absolutely beautiful - the best I have had in Skegness, real chip shop style chips. My partner had a six ounce new Yorker burger and again could not find a fault. Great food, great staff and a lovely welcoming environment. 5 star service all around and we certainly know where we will be coming next time for our fish and chips by the seaside!

I was hungry yesterday after driving from Nottinham to spend the day in Skegness. Reliving my chidhood memories. The Clock Restaurant is a very prominant establishment right accross from the famous clock tower, hence its name.

We had breakfast here today. The waiter was very friendly and welcoming. There were a couple of minor issues, wrong drinks and missing sausages off one breakfast but the waiter was apologetic and fixed it quickly :) The breakfast was delicious and the restaurant was spotlessly clean. We would definitely visit again.
