Visited this restaurant twice during the week of Keswick Mountain Festival. It is a great place for wholesome no frills meals. The fish and chips, scampi and chips and lasagne are all super value for money. The staff are very friendly and booking a table is not always required. All in all a very good experience,

Great fish and chip place, we sat inside and had quick service with friendly staff. Pie and chips were delicious and were a large portion size for decent price. Plenty of curry sauce that tasted lovely and complimented the meal very well. Very pleased with our meal and will be coming back!

After seeing the queue at the "other" popular fish and chip shop in Keswick we decided to try the Kingfisher. We were not disappointed at all. We ate upstairs in the lovely restaurant. The service was friendly and efficient. We asked for a smaller portion of chips, but it was still plentiful and the fish was huge. The batter is one of the best we’ve ever had. Didn’t have room for desserts unfortunately but they looked delicious too.

Although this chip shop is a bit off the main street it's worth finding. The restaurant is up above the chip shop. Staff are very friendly and the food is amazing I had cornish pasty chips and mushy peas and my husband had turkey and ham pie with his chips he said he would have that again and asked staff who made the pie? home made by the chip shop owner.The food came out after ordering very quickly highly recommend.

We had our evening meal at the Kingfisher's restaurant on a Saturday and Sunday evening. The staff were friendly and the service excellent. The meals are prepared in the take away chip shop downstairs, but there is good choice with ample portions served hot and very reasonably priced. And you can book! A real gem when current Covid restrictions make accessing restaurants difficult at times especially for family groups.

I don't normally have fish and chips its one of them things that I really need to be in the mood for, but my partner and kids wanted to go so we did (twice). Oh my god, it was fantastic I had the cod and chips (in the restaurant) on both times we visited and it was amazing, expertly fried and just fantastic. The wife and kids had other things like the chicken burger, sausage, quiche scampi and no one complained about another. The daughter especially loved the banana milkshake.

This place does what it says on the tin. You get some good fish and chips, can’t ask for much more especially when the staff was so helpful (my husband couldn’t make up his mind so went with the staffs choice). I would say however that the curry source was the worst I’ve ever tasted, I’m not from around here, so maybe that’s just how they like it in Cumbria (watery) not sure. Either way it didn’t ruin the meal or experience.

I have been a regular customer of the Kingfisher for around 10 years now and my most recent was just a few days ago. I have to say that the pandemic and the unfortunate fire they suffered has not impacted on them in the least, the service remains exceptionally good and very friendly, plus the food is excellent and always served in decent portions - I really can't fault them.I was struck by just how good the Kingfisher is because I recently visited a similar establishment in Shap, they could learn a lot from the way The Kingfisher does business. The Kingfisher best chip shop in Cumbria, no question about it!

I ordered small chips, small sausage & gravy to takeaway. The food was really nice but I did think £2 for a small chips was a bit expensive. It was served in a box which was good. Unfortunately by the time i'd got it home the gravy had soaked through all the chips and stuck them all together so I ended up with just one block of chips that I struggled to separate. That being said, I said it was ok to just pour the gravy on, but I wouldn't have if I knew that was going to happen.

¡Dicen que son el mejor pescado y patatas fritas y tienen razón! Comí pescado, patatas fritas y guisantes y soy una buena chica robusta que ama su comida, pero ni siquiera yo pude terminar mi comida. Nos sentamos arriba en el restaurante donde estaba encantador y cálido (había estado lloviendo, así que esto fue un regalo de Dios) y las mesas estaban bien espaciadas en relación con las medidas de COVID. Las cosas de espera son insuperables. Todos fueron muy amables y serviciales e interactuaron bien con nosotros como familia con niños pequeños. Recomendaría comer aquí a cualquiera.

Ambos pedimos "bacalao grande y patatas fritas" (no había una opción "regular / pequeña") y la descripción fue bien aplicada. Fue un super trozo de bacalao y las patatas fritas estaban perfectamente cocinadas a nuestro gusto. Mi marido se las arregló para comerse todo, pero tuve que dejar algunas de las patatas fritas, los guisantes y la masa (aunque me comí todo el pescado). Muy abundante y delicioso. Reservamos nuestra mesa en el restaurante con una semana de anticipación, y en estos tiempos COVID, recomendaría a todos que hicieran lo mismo. El restaurante está arriba, mientras que en la planta baja hay comida para llevar. El restaurante tiene licencia para servir alcohol y tiene cervezas locales embotelladas, así como vino por copa. Definitivamente recomendaría The Kingfisher.

Fish and chips no es una cocina compleja; o eso habrías pensado. Pero muchas tiendas de pescado y patatas fritas sirven comida que, en el mejor de los casos, es mediocre.Kingfisher no es uno de ellos.Comimos en el restaurante de arriba y todos pedimos el bacalao grande con patatas fritas, guisantes blandos y una porción de aros de cebolla entre nosotros.Lo primero que nos llamó la atención fue el tamaño de la ración. El bacalao era, de hecho, muy grande y carnoso y había suficientes papas fritas (adecuadas, gruesas) para hundir un acorazado. La masa del pescado era ligera y crujiente. De hecho, todo salió bien.¡Visite aquí con confianza y disfrute!

En el pasado, cené en el restaurante Kingfisher muchas veces y siempre encontré la comida y el servicio excelentes.Durante la semana pasada, no deseando cenar en un restaurante durante la pandemia actual, tuve varias comidas para llevar de la tienda de pescado y patatas fritas Kingfisher y el servicio y la comida fueron igualmente buenos. El pescado estaba recién cocinado a pedido, a diferencia de otras tiendas donde se ha cocinado antes y se ha mantenido caliente, por lo que definitivamente vale la pena esperar unos minutos.

Fui a cenar para llevar después de pasar el día escalando Skiddaw. Estábamos muy hambrientos y muy cansados, así que esperábamos una buena comida y un servicio rápido. No nos decepcionó. Este es un típico chippy local en el centro de Keswick. Estaba limpio, ordenado y tenía buenas precauciones de Covid (pantallas, etc.). El personal era amable y eficiente y conseguimos nuestra cena para 4 en unos 5 minutos. El tamaño de las porciones era bueno y el precio era muy razonable. Cuando llegamos a casa, quedamos muy satisfechos con la calidad. Las patatas fritas y la masa estaban crujientes, el pescado estaba muy bien cocinado y los guisantes blandos eran agradables y espesos.En general, fue una muy buena experiencia y recomendamos encarecidamente este lugar.

Las críticas recientes califican este restaurante altamente, así que quizás llegamos en un mal momento. Era un lugar elegante y limpio, mesas bien espaciadas, el personal con viseras pero decepcionado por la comida. Mi esposa tenía pasteles de pescado pero apenas podía abrir la carcasa y cuando lo hizo dijo que no valía la pena el esfuerzo, que el contenido no tenía sabor. Yo tenía pescado y patatas fritas, el pescado y los guisantes estaban bien, pero las patatas fritas que ambos teníamos eran duras. Su color se veía bien, así que imagino que eran viejos y habían estado tirados en la sartén demasiado tiempo esperando ser vendidos. Le dijimos al personal cómo nos sentíamos, se veían un poco incómodos, no creo que se lo informaron a nadie y nos dieron una factura por el monto total.

Fui con mi esposo porque habíamos comido allí anteriormente. Tengo enfermedad celíaca, por lo que necesito alimentos sin gluten. Me dijeron que lo único que no contenía gluten era el curry vegano, aunque había muchos platos que podrían haberse hecho sin gluten simplemente quitando la salsa. Fue bastante decepcionante en ese sentido. La comida estaba bien, no está mal, pero no muy sabrosa. El personal fue agradable.

El pescado y las patatas fritas eran realmente encantadores y el distanciamiento social y el uso de máscaras se adhirieron muy bien con entrada y salida independientes.Sin embargo, estaba un poco molesto cuando me preguntaron si quería sal y vinagre en todos ellos, a lo que dije que sí. Salí y mi pequeño me recordó que odia el vinagre. Volví a entrar y esperé para pedirle que no se lo pusiera. Nadie me atendió. Me dieron mi pedido y les pregunté si era posible cambiar uno ya que había hecho cola para preguntar y no me atendieron y él no quería comérselos.Se encogió de hombros y dijo "bueno, los hemos empacado ahora, así que no puedo hacer nada". Estos lugares olvidan el buen servicio y la importancia de repetir la costumbre y la recomendación.Aunque la comida estaba caliente, fresca y bien cocinada.

We have short breaks in Keswick 3 or 4 times a year, and eat out in a variety of places in the town. However during this stay, with the Covid restrictions, finding somewhere to eat that was not booked up or had huge queues waiting for a table was problematic. We noticed the entrance to the Kingfisher restaurant adjacent to their takeaway and as their was no queue we took a chance and fortunately got a table. The restaurant was clean, comfortable and the staff friendly and efficient. The menu was as expected chip shop based. Our order was served in a short time and the food was well cooked, hot and tasty and reasonably priced. We were pleased enough to return later that week.

During a trip to Keswick we decided to get some fish and chips and eat them outside. We did have to wait about ten minutes for our order but we were advised this would be the case. My husband got fish and chips with curry sauce whilst I just got a small sausage and shared his chips, I also tried a small piece of his fish and the sauce. The food was all beautifully cooked and there was plenty of it. Even though we shared the chips we couldn’t eat all of them and ended up putting some in the bin. Next time we visit Keswick we would like to try the restaurant upstairs.

One of our come to places when we arrive in Keswick, dined here twice in a week. Contrary to what a couple of people have posted, the waitresses are lovely, very polite and give you time to decide what you want to eat instead of rushing you. We have always found the fish and chips to be beautiful, the fish batter definitely not greasy, and neither are the chips. What I don't understand is how someone can post greasy fish and dry chips!!! The majority of reviewers are happy with the food that speaks for itself..

I was so looking forward to having fish and chips in Keswick. The reviews put this place at the top and the board outside said they were the best fish and chips in Cumbria. I'm sorry to say they didn't meet the expectations that others have bragged about. The fish batter was greasy and had a funny snatch to it. The chips were rather dry. I was gutted as I was looking forward to them so much.

Popped into the restaurant part of the chippy on my way to the YHA. I ordered homemade steak and kidney pie, chips, mushy peas, gravy and an ale. It cost £11/$15 . It was worth it: chips were firm, the pie was tasty with perfectly cooked meat, the peas were mushy (as they should be ), and the ale was lovely. The only thing that was a letdown was the gravy: not particularly tasty, but ok.

This is a fish and chips shop with a restaurant upstairs. We ate in the restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious. Some of the nicest fish and chips I've ever had. The service was polite and friendly, the place is clean and good looking. Bearing in mind it is a fish & chip restaurant it is wonderful. It is not Michelin star, but if they gave them to chippys for taste, it would get one. The menu is limited and cooked to order. You cannot ask for more. Thanks to the staff.

¡Kingfisher Chip Shop & Restaurant es una pequeña joya escondida! El servicio es excelente, el pescado y las patatas fritas son mejores que los mejores. . ¡y recomendamos la salsa de curry! El té para dos fue perfecto. . ¡no puedes venir a Keswick sin venir al Kingfisher! ¡Impresionante experiencia! ! !

Hago trabajos estacionales en Keswick y he probado todos los chips de la ciudad. También tengo visitas familiares regulares que les gusta probar los chippies locales cuando visitan. Se supone que este y el Keswickian son los mejores, pero todo lo que puedo decir es que son muy normales. . En la última visita, mi esposa y mi nuera tenían pescado y papas fritas, pescado y papas fritas sin sabor. Ambos dejaron la mayor parte de la comida. Tuve papas fritas, salchichas y salsa de Cumberland. Chips secos, salchichas bien, solo una pequeña pistola de salsa que estaba bien. El hijo tenía papas fritas, tarta de salchicha gigante y salsa, una vez más quedaba la mayor parte. Aunque el servicio es bueno y el personal es amable, y hacen lo mejor que pueden teniendo en cuenta la cantidad de clientes que tienen, no volveremos a utilizar ninguno de los chips en Keswick. , preferimos esperar hasta una de nuestras visitas a casa

Spent a long weekend in the Lake District and had my heart set on some fish & chips. Very happy that I chose to visit The Kingfisher. Nothing fancy about the restaurant, food or service... just very solid all round. Opted for the large portion cod & chips and it was absolutely massive and very tasty. All washed down with a quiet lager. Enjoyed it..!!

de regreso, siempre regresa aquí porque el pescado y las patatas fritas son encantadores. Estábamos en un viaje en autobús, así que pedimos té, contentos de haberlo hecho, porque como siempre todo estaba bien y recién cocinado, ambos teníamos pescado y papas fritas, y eran divinos. volveremos.

Abajo, en Keswick, para pasar unas vacaciones, tuvimos una comida para llevar de esta astilladora, una que hemos estado varias veces antes en descansos anteriores.

Three visits in our recent 2 week holiday, fish, chips, peas, steak pie, curry and gravy sauce all exceptional as usual with no grease at all on our plates. Really good value for money with lovely waiting staff, see you in January when we're back.

Fantastic fish and chips and I find best in the town. They offer a wider range of fish selection compared to others. The portions are about right for the cost. Excellent place to eat thanks

This restaurant never fails to deliver with both the service and the food. We have been coming here for years and if anything it just keeps getting better. The staff are very friendly and obliging. The haddock and the cod are both excellent as are their mushy peas. If you have room try their sticky toffee pudding which is just to die for and one of the best I have had. You will definitely not be disappointed.

Just what was needed after a 100km ride. This place served one of the best fish, chips, peas and curry sauce we had tasted in a long time. The chippy has a link to the bar next door so we had a Dizz
