The Great British Fish and Chip Shop in Torbay - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

First time visit and not the last, only takeaway of battered sausage and normal sausage, with chips but it was lovely and fresh, piping hot, very reasonably priced sat on the wall overlooking the marina, watch out for seagulls!

Excellent. Value for money. Excellent fish and chips and staff friendly and polite. Best fish and chips we had while on holiday. Beating brixham by a narrow margin. Could not fault this one. Well done all there. Quality from entering to eating. All our party including grandchildren loved this place and the beautiful location. This is a must if in Torquay harbour. Trust me

Great quality and affordable prices, a great option compared to other fish and chip restaurants in the area that charge almost double!

On holiday in Torquay 14/8/24 at around 12.30 pm We sat at the harbour & fancied sharing a bag of chips, so we walked across the road & just decided to sit in & have one haddock 🐟 < fish supper & a can of diet coke to share & i thought 🤔 that we in Scotland done the best 🐟 suppers, but sadly that doesn't seem to be the case. I could hardly believe how smooth & crispy the batter was on the fish & the chips weren't soggy or greasy & of course neither was the haddock. We could have had cod, but we Scots like our haddock. SO now you all know where to go for a reasonably priced fish supper 👍 😁 We didn't want to eat too much as we would be going back to our hotel for our dinner.

Delicious fish and chips with a great cuppa in a window table. Delightful staff and great value- especially the pensioner special. Highly recommended.

Excellent fish and chips but no easy access to toilet if you have a disability

£5.50 for mini cod and chips, won't get better price anywhere else! Feeds you up nicely for lunch and very good quality, we visited twice during our stay in Torquay!

Felt traditional which was lovely while down at the coast. Food was tasty and staff where nice even though they were busy rush off their feet. If there is a queue, stay, it's worth the wait

Cod and Chips £9.50, worth it. Cooked to order, fresh and hot. Curry sauce excellent also. Staff friendly and helpful. Very reasonable prices and great location.

Food quality is not the best - chips were really nice and well cooked but the fish batter is pretty bad quality and quite greasy. Curry sauce was also oddly sweet.

The chips were horrible!! Like they haven’t changed their oil for months, ours went straight in the bin! And the curry sauce, not sure what it’s meant to be but wasn’t curry sauce! We went quite late and the lady just shouts at everyone to not sit down! I wouldn’t go there again on a hurry!!

Delicious. Highly recommend getting food from here if visiting Torquay.

What an amazing fish and chips shop. Beautiful fish great curry sauce. Went there twice whilst visiting Torquay. Service helpful friendly and prompt. Would highly recommend great value for money.

Subject: Disappointing Visit Today I visited your establishment today at around 2 o'clock, as my family and I have done for the last 9 or possibly 10 years. Unfortunately, I must express my disappointment with the quality of the food we received. The fish was very greasy, with a thick batter that was raw inside. The chips were not enjoyable, and the curry sauce was unpleasant. It was evident that nothing was cooked to order as it had been in the past. It is a shame to see a decline in the standard of your food, as you were once considered one of the best in Torquay.

Great fish and chips, good value for money.

Food was OK, albeit the hair I found, and fish was soggy and chips were below average quality. Cleanliness was lacking both inside and out. The tables were dirty the condiments and the caddy they were in was filthy. The outside was not very clean either. Service was lacklustre, by people who looked miserable and could not be bothered. Leaving the atmosphere dull and dreary.

The prices are good, portion size is generous, staff are pleasant, range is good, location harbor side is traditional but unfortunately the food was quite disappointing----Cod was saturated with fat I mean dripping off as you tried to eat, the chips were soggy not crispy, the actual flavor was enjoyable so I would suggest just not cooked long enough, maybe. The mushy peas I'm sure were just from a can but as we all know when the food you purchased is below expectation it all starts to get negatively critiqued. I must say it was very busy even on Monday lunch time so maybe I was just the unfortunate customer.

Staff superb , brilliant atmosphere and very reasonable prices .

Beautiful fish and chips, had a small wait but well worth it, on holiday here staying at Beverly park Paignton and doing the usual holiday stuff and stopped for a lovely traditional meal.

One of the best chippies I’ve ever been to! The portion sizes are generous, every thing is freshly cooked to order and it is excellent value for money. Would definitely recommend!

we live locally and to put this review in context we normally and rightfully say Hanburys fish and chips are brilliant, and they are, but ...... we were reminded on a visit this week to eat fish and chips out of the box sitting on the side of the harbour that in fact this place makes the absolute best fish and chips, they apparently use a different oil for frying, but whatever it is it is great, also the batter on the fish was super fine and tasty, can't comment on the eating in experience as we've never done it but the take away is seriously the best.

The prices are budget-friendly, but the quality reflects it. Disappointingly, they use frozen chips, which lacks the freshness and flavor you'd hope for in a great British chippy. It's alright if you're on a tight budget and craving some comfort food, but don't expect anything exceptional.

Delicious fish and chips in a beautiful location. The mini fish and chips was decently sized and very good value for money. The server even labelled the side of the box with vinegar on 💕

This is such a lovely chippy. Food is fabulous, portions great and amazing value for money. Always very clean and staff are friendly.

Excellent. Tasty, big and great prices. Great service too. Compared to the other places around the harbour, this one is the best. Also £££ cheaper.

Seems like thay only open for tourists what about your regulars throughout the year guess there’s not enough of us you’re loss

Flawless ! A nice cod and chips ! Would definitely recommend :)

Lovely food. staff friendly. Clean.

Big queue outside, but staff really fast and well organised, so goes very quickly. You pay and get a number and get called when Yr number is ready. Staff all really friendly and welcoming. Best chips I have ever had, proper chips. Veggie burger tasty, would be good to have some veggie fish and veggie battered sausage on the menu. Recommend this place 💯.

Fish was ok, batter not good at all. Chips were decent 👍 it’s an ok fish and chips shop definitely had better. The staff were friendly and it obviously has a decent name as it filled up while we were there for lunch.

Really lovely fish and chips cooked just right. Reasonable price for area. Good menu seating inside. Would recommend it to anyone. Staff friendly and helpful

No sauces, don’t tell you then have minimum spend, long wait and bad chips

As locals we popped in here on 2 occasions. Both times we were met with a sulky face and rude and abrupt staff. We won’t be returning. Best walk down the road a little bit to Saltwater or Rockfish which is a much better experience !!

The best fish and chips I've ever tasted, will definitely come again whenever I'm in Torquay. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Also best value for money.

Good fish & chips at reasonable prices. Added bonus is there are a few tables & chairs so you can eat in.

Very abrupt, unhelpful server, couldn’t get out of the place quick enough, found somewhere quite close that actually made you feel like a guest not a nuisance

Delicious!! Chips were perfect, fish was fresh, batter thin and crispy, cooked to perfection. All fish cooked fresh to order.

Been coming here since it opened. Not been for a few years so tried it yesterday. Very good fish and chips, staff were friendly and polite. Much better value than rockfish.

Myself and my partner visited 19/7/23 and both had fish chips mushy peas and a cup of tea. Can I say it was amazing and great value for money. The staff were friendly and it was very clean. I would highly recommend this establishment to all who enjoy a good meal at great prices.

Amazing Fish and Chips freshest fish I’ve tasted in Torquay.. Were on a lunch break from another business on Victoria parade and will be back 🙏

Happened alone this place yesterday had the mini fish and chips which was fantastic any great value definitely recommended to any one and ever one just try it you won’t by disappointed trust me much bigger than the name suggests mini fish and chips chips was a great portion on this occasion so much so I’m looking forward to having it again today

Staff was uninviting at first. Tables were dirty and the floor was sticky. However the food came quite fast which is a plus. It was incredibly oily and my kids felt really unwell after we ate there.

Cod and chips at a great price of £9.50 to eat in. I had a curry sauce with mine which was lovely. When I first saw the chips I thought not sure about these but they were the best I have had for many years. Fantastic meal and will definitely eat there again when we are down that way.

Every thing is cooked fresh, great food a great prices.

I Enjoyed the meal I was hungry spotted a table at the back of the restaurant a two seater so ordered at the till wanted haddock they had sold out only cod had it with chips and mushy peas not a bad meal with a cold can of coke the bill came to £12.20 not bad value considering the location on the harbour cracking views I was happy 😀

Very rude inexperienced staff who cannot handle a busy chip shop. Fish nothing special, chips alright. Rudely told to wait outside once taken your money and wait to be called. People are on holiday and should be treated friendlier.

By far the best cod we have had in a long time. Freshly dropped into the fryer when ordered, it was white, meaty and super tasty in crisp batter. Lovely.

We went to this place because No. 7 was closed. It's rated 4.6 overall, but in my opinion, the quality was not there. Mind you, I have a high standard when it comes to fish and chips. I tried to order some calamari rings and cod bites, but the very inexperienced cashier said it wasn't possible. Another member of staff overheard and suggested the fisherman's basket that includes these... I agreed. We also ordered a chip butty, and cod and chips. Overall, the food quality was average. I don't know why but a lot of English chippies do not make good chips. They don't have the crisp crunch attainable by some potato preparation methods. The cod was fresh and cooked perfectly, calamari was also good. Unfortunately, presentation was lackluster, no sauces offered and no fresh lemon. The squid was also old and had that bitter aftertaste. Price-tag was cheap by modern standards just under £20 all up.

I have been a Few Times because they do The Best Fresh Haddock and Chips in Torquay. I would Definitely recommend this Little Shop 😎👌

The most amazing fish and chips EVER!!!!!!! So good in fact I visited multiple times during our stay in Torquay. £4.80 for the Freshest Fish and juicy chips. ABSOLUTE BARGAIN. IF I'm ever in TORQUAY again I will 1 billion percent visit again.

Would definitely recommend this chippy. Just like someone els who has commented I had paying for over priced fish and Chips. This place is very reasonable fish is cooked fresh when ordered and is so tasty lovely fresh chips no grease. would definately go there again lovey location too.

Excellent fish and chips ,and cup of te a.

Lovely food with a beautiful view. Cooked to order though which means it takes a while! Floor and tables were dirty when we went.

Decided to try out the Fish and Chips while visiting the area. Unfortunately Haddock wasn't available so Cod was the delicacy.... food cooked to order, chips were okay but the batter for the fish and pea fritter were a bit meh and too greasy... staff were friendly and polite tho!

Fantastic fish and chips with mushy peas. Delicious. Good value for money.

If your like me and are fed up of being ripped off when buying the great British treat of fish and chips when your at the seaside, then worry no more , the next time your in torquay only one place to go for fish and chips, THE GREAT BRITISH FISH AND CHIPS SHOP, Great price Quality fish and chips, sit inside or take out , I'm hooked

Fish was amazing not to much batter and crispy chips were nice and fresh and chunky all in all definitely will come back and would recommend price's were good and portions big thank you for filling my belly

Very reasonably priced, mini cod & chips was £4.80. Good selection of fish too. I opted for the large cod & chips, while my wife had the mini. My wife loved the thinly battered cod, whereas I wasn't such a fan. The fish was nice and fluffy, though and the chips were good too. Well worth a visit, especially for the price!

Top class fish & chips. Excellent!!

That is my favorite fish and chips shop in Torquay!

Fantastic chippy. Won't eat anywhere whilst in the harbour area. 🙂

Nice fresh fish chips & mushy peas

Fleshly made fish and chips our dog was allowed in while we had our lunch,staff very friendly ,and very clean thanks to a well run chippy 🙂

First time visit. Was not disappointed. Very fair prices and good quality produce. A nice and clean area to sit indoors with views of the harbour. I had cod and chips. The cod was so fresh and tasty. I don't normally eat the batter of fish but this was lovely. Wasn't greasy at all. It complimented the fish. Very nice chips too with pot of fresh curry sauce. Definitely worth coming here 👍🏼👍🏼😊

Best fish chips in Torquay by far

Best fish and chips I,v had in a long time

Good value for money. I had the small fish and chips and it was ample for me

All I can say is the name says it all. Had a great meal while on holiday. A must visit if you are in Torquay harbour

good quality filet fish burger Good price

Had a very nice Cod and Chips. Decent price and didn't have to wait too long

Went for a fish and chip Dinner worth a visit

Fallon and the team were very helpful with providing me and 44 Guides and leaders with a great lunch. Food was great and service was brilliant. Would highly recommend.

Bought haddock and chips. Haddock was fresh and delicious. Chips were home made and nice although portion was miniscule. Staff polite. Would I visit again....not before I gave another chippy a tryout first

Was working in Torquay for 2 months recently..been to this fish &chip shop 2 -3 times a week over the course of my stay thete.I would highly recommend this place to Anyone.Fantastic staff.especially the young lady who originally came from the Wirral.sorry never got her name..All lovely staff..Quality fresh produce..I always sat at Table 6..thanks

Fantastic chip shop and reasonable prices 👍

2nd visit and to confirm the fish & chips from this plaice (see what I did there) are utterly delightful! Beautifully cooked.

We had the pensioners fish and chips. Delicious and good price

Lovely place for a meal, affordable too! I had the mini fish and chips for only £4.80 chips were great, fish was lovely and crumbly! Staff very friendly and welcoming. Will definitely visit again.

Очень вкусно, но не очень уютно и не очень чисто внутри

Nice food.also do mini portions at reasonable prices

Visited now a couple of times and it's usually just at the right time of not being too busy. This time we visited jubilee wk end just after the red arrows had performed outside for the air show, we manages to get a table. Only has a small seating area, so more a take out place but perfectly adequate. We always opt for the small portion of fish and chips with a cup of tea and it's just perfect. Fish is perfectly cooked and tasty, chips are lovely and the mushy peas add the extra bit of wow. Also to note and applaud, is that the staff all look very young yet always do great welcoming speedy professional service. They had a rush of people and a queue, but service didn't falter. Keep it up team.

amazing staff! incredible staff! can’t express it enough! always smiley and great ;p yummy food. great taste. #soworthit

Very good quality battered sausage and chips, a little heavy on the salt, but all was fresh, good quality and friendly staff. Meal mentioned cost £4.70 at time of purchase, a price I'd be exceptionally happy to pay again.

Fantastic fish and chip restaurant. Lovely staff, good prices. Highly recommended.

I can honestly say fantastic fish and chips, best I've tasted in Torquay. The coffee was lovely as well

Always brilliant, we have used them for years.

Twice we have been and we can not fault the service and quality of the food.

Been here several times, just such good fish and chips, light crisp batter and a good portion of chunky chips.

Proper Job, best fish and chips I've had for a long time, great taste and excellent service with a smile ☺

Crispy chips but fluffy inside and thin crunchy batter on the fish. Cannot fault it.

Had fish and chips there yesterday and was one of the best fish I had ever eaten! The batter was done to perfection and the cod was extremely white. Sometimes fish can be bland but this had so much flavour I had a mini cod and chips for such a reasonable price and great portion! Highly recommended to all my friends and family who visit Torquay!

The best Fish and Chip shop in Torbay. We can only speak from personal experience but every time it's been perfect unlike most of the others. As good as Hanburys and half the price.

Great fish and chips 😄 best in the town and best I HV ever tasted!! great prices and great staff. Eat in or take away, if the weather is good ideal to sit on the harbour and eat.

Nice place nice food well worth a visit

Once again a wonderful experience. Great customer service, polite staff, well cooked and presented food and a pleasant view over the harbour. What more could one ask for? I have become a regular customer, usually on Fridays and will continue to be so, hopefully for a long time to come.

The Fish and Chips were excellent quality. Fresh substantial plaice cooked in a crispy layer of thin flavoursome batter. The chip quality was outstanding, light fluffy yet not dry. The potatoes are locally sourced as I asked and in my serving there were no bad ones. Really great food all over with helpful and friendly staff - thank you

Good food, good portion size. Great prices. Very friendly young staff.

Nice clean place to eat and very reasonably priced, food cooked freshly and we didn't have to wait long for it, staff very friendly, nicely positioned over looking the harbour, highly recommend a visit

Can honestly say, these are the best fish and chips I have ever eaten. All clean and tidy, staff excellent in custon.

Very clean, excellent quality, excellent service, excellent price. Just couldn't believe how young All the staff were, they all had people skills manners and were so friendly. Well done All of you 👌😊.
