Tend to think we have a monopoly on the best chippies up north, but this one is really, really good! Good sized portions and excellent quality cod. A bit pricey, but well worth it for the quality of fare provided.

Usually reliable for fish and chips, unfortunately our takeaway on Friday was below usual standards with both of our cods soggy leading to all bottom of batter sticking to the paper. Not what you expect when paying £32 for two fish and chips!! Seems very expensive

I went there to buy one sort of fish and came out with several. All was delicious. Will definitely go back. Highly recommend.

Some of the best fish and chips I’ve eaten. Ever! I can count on one hand the number of really first class fish and chips I’ve eaten in my life. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve eaten loads of mediocre, lifeless, lustre lacking impersonations of fish and chips. Vintage Fish on Leopoldo Road really is in a class of it’s own. Large hand cut crisp chips hit the spot perfectly! The haddock was filleted, battered and cooked to the point of perfection. Salt, vinegar, tartare sauce and a wedge of Lemon provided an impeccable meal. Vintage Fish serves ‘world class cuisine’, and at £13, there’s nothing not to love about this place.

l absolutely love the fish and homemade mushy peas. l previously had a cod and haddock , now l have tried cod bites (see attached pictures).Loving it. They cook as you wait (it’s a take away place not restaurant )or you can have it delivered (check Deliveroo). Staff there is very friendly ,professional and they add extra homemade garlic mayo which l also love . This is the best fish and chips (sweet potato my favourite) in Wimbledon and Haydons Rd. Bus 156 or 493 stops just round the corner. Lots of other yummy things to try , l often get a sausage for my friends dog (plain ,no coating), he loves it too. You won’t be disappointed .

I pre-booked a collection for 7.30-8:00 this evening. The order was accepted. The rider was there to collect but the order was not ready. I couldn’t get through to the restaurant and when the order finally arrived 1hr 40 mins late, it was the wrong thing and really didn’t smell good. Shocking service all round. First time I’ve ordered from this restaurant, and never again!

Do not order a delivery. They took three hours and still the food didn’t arrive. Refused to cancel and refund my order even after calling many times and pleading with them. We couldn’t just make our own food because they wouldn’t cancel our order. So we had to keep waiting one, two and then three hours. Many phone calls later - still no food. This is a hateful way to treat your customers. If you can’t provide the food in a reasonable time you should just apologise and cancel the order, not force your customers to pay anyway while they are still waiting three hours after ordering. They are greedy and accept orders they cannot hope to fulfil. They must hate their customers. I would never use this restaurant again. The worst approach to customer service I’ve ever experienced.

First time here and definitely not the last. The most upmarket and high quality fish and chips ever. Had the Cod and it was amazingly fresh, perfectly cooked, and a very generous portion. There is also a fresh fish market. The staff are so friendly, efficient, polite and helpful. Each portion is placed in stable and lined cardboard box, and before the box is closed we were asked whether we would like herbs, salt, and vinegar, which were all added to our liking. Tartar sauce was amazing. The only disappointment was seeing all the pennies in the tips jar - how mean is that considering how hard the staff toil in the heat? Takeaways require the same level of care and time as full service, so get real and be respectful of this very fine staff. Suggest tips are automatically added as in other takeaways and restaurants.

Waited over 30mins for a takeaway to get home to 3 cod and chip that was smothered in grease soft soggy batter on cod all chips soft and sloppy chips. Gherkins missing, mushy peas was not even hot. And considering I spent over £50 i was so disappointed. Will never go bk or recommend it even to someone with no teeth and taste buds. 9 years ago I came here and it was the best around.

What a mistake it was coming here, come in ordered a saveloy and chips for £7 and some change it was the worst saveloy I have ever had in my life was so soggy you could almost push a finger through it without any real pressure, the taste was revolting l immediately spat it out. the chips were ok but could tell they were cooked in old oil as lots of black specs were on them. So as a whole payed £7 something for chips and a Dr Pepper what a disgrace charging premium prices for the cheapest food is just a poor thing to do will never be coming back. Also if you like loads of vinegar on your chips don’t come here as you will not be getting that lol…

Freshly cooked fish and chips nothing frozen. Best for miles. Still the best. I go every Friday, it's still the best for miles around. Yep, been again, spot on. Being on first name terms with the proprietor, I'm sure helps. Still the best for miles.
