Tony's Chippy in East Lindsey

Gone massively downhill. Haddock tasted and smelt rank and rotten, didn't look or taste like Haddock at all. The chips were Frozen chips , and very tasteless and pale looking. The portion sizes were very small and not worth its money one bit. The cups of tea were watery and out of a processed tea machine, and tasted nothing like a real proper tea pot with teabags. Massive decline in quality overall , won't be visiting again, plenty more higher quality fish and chip shops in skegness.

Excellent fish and chips, freshly cooked, not greasy and the fish was lightly battered. Excellent value for money and the staff were really friendly. I would definitely recommend visiting if you want delicious food.

On a recent holiday to Sutton on Sea, we decided to spend our last day in Skegness (big mistake as it's now an utter dump). However, we fancied some obligatory fish and chips before leaving. We chose Tony's as I used to visit here with Dad years ago. We ordered two fish, chips and peas but got haddock. I honestly think they believe people can't tell the difference! The seating area was disgusting - most of it was under some kind of roof/canopy, but there were hundreds of starlings all roosting up there and cr@pping all over the chairs, tables and floor. I felt sick. If it hadn't been for the fact that we'd already paid, and we're starving, we would have gone elsewhere. As it was, we had to sit hunched over our food and eat as fast as possible, to avoid getting sh1t on. The horrible little flying vermin were that brazen, they were landing on our table and almost taking our food out of the trays! The food itself was ok, but we are never going to Skeg, OR Tony's ever again.

Absolutely amazing experience. Customer service was above what was expected. Best mushy peas we have ever had. Scampi was cooked to perfection. Our 8year old now loves scampi. There was something for everyone. Overall very pleasant visit. Will recommend to anyone visiting Skegness.

There are so many fish and chips restaurants in Skegness so we chose this one based on reviews. The food was very good and reasonably priced we would return again

We had a cod and chips and a haddock, chips and gravy. Both pieces of fish were perfectly cooked, light crispy batter and good portion size. Chips very good. Price paid for the meals were very good value for the quality of food. Great service and place was clean and tidy.

Back to being one of the best, if not the best, in Skegness. Haddock cooked beautifully, proper chips (new potatoes not the easiest) and good mushy peas. Only one slight thing, as we had ours wrapped to take home, the peas weren't put in tubs but on the chips then wrapped.... would have preferred them potted up. Will be going back before the end of the season

Was in Skeg, visiting our son… and as usual,ended up at Tonys. We always use Tonys when in skeg for a number if reasons… good food, good prices… polite staff…. 2 points though…. Could use toilets…. And mushy peas cooked a little longer

The Food: Good quality fresh fish, but the chips were not as good as expected, undercooked but may have something to do with the lunchtime rush. The Price: Can’t argue with this, the price is good. The portions are good for any adult, we were able to make one portion split between two children under 6 (after all the arguments). The Service: This is where it really fell over for me. It felt rude and rushed for a start, but again it was the lunch time rush and young staff. The staff that served us didn’t acknowledge / ignored us ask for the (advertised as) free beans, peas, gravy or curry sauce to be put in a seperate pot as the kids don’t like it on top. When they made one, I asked again and they said they absolutely could not do that, but didn’t / couldn’t give an actual reason. They said if we wanted to do that it would cost us over £1 as a side, a side that is over wise advertised as free. A pot is probably £0.01 each to them but here we are. But, they were ok with throwing away and wasting a tray of bean soaked chips so we could have plain fish and chips. I asked again if the free side could be put in a container, which probably costs them nothing, and they refused. Bizarre and something which wouldn’t bat an eyelid at most places. Overall: It did the job but could be higher quality in terms of the chips. I genuinely don’t understand why sides that are advertised as free can’t be given separately without being charged over £1. Would have been a 7/10 because of the chips / portion size. Is a 5/10 because of the poor service. Parents with children be aware, as their staff aren’t trained to double check and often seem overwhelmed.

It was extremely hot and extremely busy, but the staff were still very friendly and very quick! And the food was piping hot and tasty as always

Right in the middle of the Skegness Strip, but was served in under 10 mins. Classic Cod & Chips but done right, and with excellent service with a smile. 10/10 would recommend.

The most melt-in-your-mouth fish and just THE tastiest, fluffiest chips. The staff are super friendly and the prices very reasonable. The childrens meal deals are especially great value.

Best chippy in all of Skegness. Daughter kaity says the cod was the best she’s ever had, even better than when we was on holiday in Cornwall last year at Rick Stiens. Staff super friendly. Can’t recommend this place enough. 10/10.

This place is ok, fish and chips are fish and chips at the end of the day however what put me off is the seating area is dirty and staff stand around just watching with there headphones in not really doing anything. Yes they wipe the table tops but the seats and floors are something else,

August Bank Holiday with the family you could never ever convince me to eat in any other fish & chip shop in Skegness, Tony's every time, all my gang agreed, I've brought them up right ✅️

Food spot on. Quick and friendly service, always go here whenever we're in Skeg and never disappoints

Best Chippy in Skegness. Always come here for our fish and chips when we come to Skegness and we have never been disappointed

Great fish and chip shop , every thing cooked as it should be. There are lots of these shops in Skegness, how ever we found third one to be good.

Vile food and staff. A ton of over done batter with a tiny bit of dry fish inside, we ate what we could and didn't say anything about the food all though we left most of it. What p**sed us off was a 'staff' member coming out multiple times and screaming f**k off at the birds as we were trying to eat. I was tempted to throw my disgusting food in his face so the birds could have a feast. I understand now why the place was empty

It's out go to chippy, always excellent food wether it's busy or not. Fish is cooked to perfection and you get a generous portion of chips.

Good honest friendly service, place was clean and tidy . Freshly fried fish , which is always a bonus . Day was complete after having coastal chippy

me and my partner went here this weekend, it looked okay so we thought we would try it. the chips were either really dry or completely soggy, my cod was fine but my partners had loads of gristle in! the place wasn’t clean at all, the tables had curry sauce on them and food from previous people, the shop wasn’t even busy at the time we went, there was probably another 3-4 people in there, also not very well run, there was about 8 workers and only 2 of them were actually doing there job the others are standing round. unfortunately we won’t be coming back here.

The first fish and chips shop I came across when I decided to eat. I had to wait a few minutes for the fish to be fried. The actual product was excellent. There was seating inside and outside. Later I discovered other places were slightly cheaper. But I had already eaten and maybe the others were inferior.

Obviously a trip to the seaside isn't complete without fish and chips. There are many to choose from in Skeg. We went to Tony's because they don't offer gimmicks just good honest fish and chips. We placed our order took our seats and waited a short while for the food to be cooked to order. Really nice fish with good batter. Proper chips none of the skinny french rubbish. Topped off a good day out, thank you

August Bank Holiday weekend, suggesting a visit any other fish & chip shop is Skeggy would be criminal, Tony's is without doubt the best.

On a scorching hot day the shop was extremely busy, but the staff were amazing with fast friendly efficiency Fish and chips were perfect Will use again and highly recommended

Dissapoonting, chips were pale amd soggy, fish was nice but there was not much of fish under thick coat of batter, charged me for mushy pras even though the price list said they were included, asked for cheese on top of my chips it was the cheapest cheddar type of cheese which didnt melt as the chips werent hot enoigh, would not buy there again

Had cod and chips with smallest piece of fish with more batter than fish sold as cod but strangest cod I have ever had chips a little over cooked but OK overall very small portion for price others in town better quality bigger portions

Visited yesterday expected better. Fish and chip was like batter and chips the batter was hard not crispy but hard. Chips and peas just out. Outcome -upset tummy won’t go back.

The only good thing was the Coca Cola was chilled. Chips were cold and the batter was rock hard. Wouldn’t use again

This chippy is right next door to Harry Ramsdens and there are so many fish and chip shops in Skegness, competition is high. We loved our fish and chips at Tony’s. We had the Haddock Special which was very good value for money as it...

Was recommended strongly and we would now recommend also. Fantastic cod and chips, tasty and fresh. The portion size just right, not too big. Only issue was the long wait time, with only one fryer.

We have visited Tony’s for years and recommended it to many others. We visited this week and was very disappointed, my husbands haddock was 70%batter and the fish was dry and hard- he returned it only to have it replaced by a similar piece ....

Have used this Chippy for 20 years plus whilst this review is based on my most recent visit in June 2022 I also had a poor experience in April too but was hoping that it was just a one off. Anyway so to June 2022...

Everything just seams to be below par. The wait for food. As they now run one frier. The staff always seams to loiter. And chat so try don't listen to what you order. The portion sizes have got smaller and the prices increased. I'm surprised...

We visited on a Saturday in the Easter Holidays. It was busy but room to sit outside with the dog. We ordered fish and chips, battered sausage and mushy peas and curry sauce. 4 cans of drink and lunch was sorted! We waited for the...

Fish and chips amazing, good staff and atmosphere, would recommend this for families or couples good value

Great chips at a great price, and really pleased I didn't go for a large portion. The lady that served us was really friendly and everything was clean and socially distanced. Would definitely visit here again when we are in the area.

August Bank Holiday weekend, people recommend other fish & chip shops to me to visit in Skegness, but I'm not having it, this is the only fish & chip shop I will eat in, end of & look forward to my visits 🤣

We’ve always come to Tony’s when going to visit skeggy and food was served fast. Always happy with the food and service.

This place is the best chippy I found in Skegness whilst on holiday by a country mile! Superb customer service, amazing food and good prices! Would 100% recommend when visiting Skegness, Kids meal is amazing value and the pies chips and peas were spot on!...

Been coming to Skegness for years and I always have something from Tony's. Good quality fish and chips at a decent price. Can never go wrong with the curry sauce too. Definitely hits the spot while on a walk around.

We always go to Tonys when in Skegness but i was very disappointed not only were work surfaces dirty but rubbish bins were overflowing and there were numerous cans stuck in dirty awning Not only this the fish was so greasy and chips soggy

Went to Skegness for a short break, visited here for some food when we arrived, had chips and gravy. The chips were tasty, the gravy was nice but was a bit lumpy. The staff were polite but the counter where they passed you your food...

Have visited this chippy over the years and the fish and chips have always been good quality and really tasty. The same can be said for our visit last week, but my husband got the smallest bit of fish we’ve ever had at any chippy....

We always go to Sony's fish bar in skeggy, we went in today and the fish n chips were horrible I asked for cod but it was not cod I took it back the staff said it it was cod I had to rip apart...

It was 'okay' chips were nice but portion of peas was small and the batter on the fish was also very thin. Staff were not super friendly and I didn't witness any staff wiping down tables after people had left..

birds landing every where when trying to eat your food which put me off after eating all over the tables.

On entering the door, you are faced with a slimy filthy bottle of hand sanitizer which was chained to the desk. I'd say it looks like it had more covid on it then you would remove. Being Bank holiday weekend you expected it busy. Staff...

Tony’s chippy, staff amazing fish and chips perfect, showed hospitality toward my disability will definitely return

Extremely disappointed with our fish & chips here. Always look forward to fish & chips at the seaside, we've been here before,but the fish can honestly say is one of the worst we've ever had. We have fish & chips most weeks, & have never...

Sat outside and enjoyed fish,chips and peas. Very good value and staff observing Covid rules although tables should be sprayed not just wiped! Would happily return

Good Skegness vibe. I found the fish a bit interesting but my friend was deeply satisfied. Slimey. The fish was battered with the skin on, is this normal? Batter was decadently crispy. Social distancing measures in place but confused. Seating area lovely if you like...

After hearing good things about Tony’s I decided to give it a try and I was truly amazed! First of all, I was pleased to see that the establishment had implied social distancing measures inside and outside of the shop making it much safer for...

Can't rate this place too highly. The food is just perfect , cooked to order so alaways fresh, lip smackingly good and finger licking good. If you want the best fish and chips, the most friendly of staff, give this place a visit. It is...

I am a difficult customer, vegetarian. Ordered chips with mushy peas and cheese on top. I wanted the cheese melted so it was put in a microwave to melt. There were no veggie alternatives in the pie selection, no onion rings but the mushy peas...

I went here for some fish and chips at dinner time. There was a 10 minute wait but they take your order, let you pay and call you when it’s done. We had haddock, chips and peas for £5.95 each. They were beautiful, really fresh fish and lovely chips. Not greasy with lovely thin batter. It was a popular place but worth a treat with indoor and out door seating. There are the usual chicken or sausage meals and kids options also

Popped in early March when not many people out and about in Skegness. We have been going to Tony’s for years and I can assure you all nothing has changed. They have a lot more competition now but the service was still excellent, great value...

Expected the best fish and chips in Skegness, as it had been for the last 10+ years. We were so disappointed, batter not cooked properly, chips very pale, small portion sizes for the price. Staff were miserable, tables and floor weren't very clean. Will not go back again, it's gone down hill rapidly since change of ownership/management.

Fish undercooked and not properly coated in batter. Chips were quite pale. They were busy and I suspect it was a case of trying to get people served quickly which I understand but I’m sure most would rather wait a minute or two extra for better food. Has it as takeaway so had left by the time I realised. I’d probably try somewhere else next time. Staff seemed friendly.

Things have changed here. Came her a couple of years back and it was pretty good. Went today and asked for Cod with the skin taken off and got flat refused. Told some rubbish excuse about the fish falls apart and doesn't taste right if you take the skin off. Utter rubbish. Ramsbottoms next door manage it, and with a smile too. Change your attitude people, or like me, trade will walk out and go elsewhere. Terrible customer service, do yourself a favour and go to Ramsbottoms next door.

Just reviewed a restaurant in Ware Uk. The fish we had was very poor.It Got me thinking about Tony’sWe are 5 ladies . 1 has a caravan in Skegness.We always visit for lunch on one of our visiting days.The fish is always so lovely and fresh .Chips as they should be with colour great taste and just the right consistency .Peas and curry both good.The prices are amazing . Poor fish and chios in the south 12.95Great fish and chips here with peas 5.50.Go compare !The only small downside for me is the pack of starlings if you have to sit outside.We have a dog so did have to.They are very annoying dirty and noisey.Maybe you could fill the sides in so the birds have knowhere to sit.Saying that in Bridlington the seagulls swoop down and steal chips.Keep up the good work Tony.

My favourite chippy to visit when in Skegness, it never changes, best fish and chips in the town. Highly recommend.

We travelled from Barnsley to Skegness, we were not disappointed. We had fish (haddock) lightly battered absolutely delicious, chips big chunky and red hot, mushy peas just finished it off. The nice touch was the newspaper sheet which was like a place mat. Took me back to when fish and chips were always wrapped in newspaper. Thank you to John and family well worth going to if and when you to Skeggy

Have visited here for the past 25+ years.

When I went to Tony's for fish and chips I was amazed at how small the portions were tiny fish handfull of chips the fish was one side and the chips the other peas on top little pollastiren dish tasted lovely but for the price the smallest in skegness I think

Had two specials off the board today and it was delicious very hot fresh fish light crispy batter chips and thick tasty curry. Will be back

The fish and chips are gorgeous. not greasy. food hot. Fish is lovely. SUCH A HUGE PORTION wow. Is that really one portion per person we got? really? Golly Gosh. And it is a fair price for a huge portion. well dome to the staff again for showing our group that we are all equal when trying to see the menu and trying to sit and relax. than you to every one . We will return that is for sure next year..

Delicious, Best fish and chips ive tasted since a I was a child.

I have been using this chip shop for 20 odd years and to day was the worst the fish was dry and the batter I could have hammered a nail in a wall with the staff did not smile just looks like that have eaten a old lemon except for a gray haired lady that as been there for years and she all ways has a smile on her face . A smile gos a long way in my book it's a shame that the old owners are not running it as things was a lot better

Best chippy in skeg the fishcake & chips was very nice & one of the staff carried my food to a table would deffo recommend this chippy

Visited here while my son was visiting with us fur a few days

Great chippy served by a friendly team. Perfect for a trad fish and chop supper. Good luck enjoyed the banter with your friendly team.

Best fish & chips I've had for ages. Not at all greasy, a light and crispy batter and the haddock could not have been fresher. Very tasty.

My fiancé has been bringing me to this chip shop for the last 3 years. He has been visiting here since being a child on his family holidays. The food here never disappoints me. Good sized portions. I always leave happy.

The place is clean and modern in which you can eat inside or out.

Still as good as they have always been. Staff, really friendly and approachable and some of them have returned for yet another year

Really disappointed with the food here chips were undercooked and hard, fish was decent, peas dumped all over the top of it

My son & myself eat here every visit & never disappointed. It was closed last time so we went next door, never again, they were awful. Tony's haddock is so fresh it falls apart. Only complaint they charge for plastic cutlery, should be included in the price.

Beautifully bubbly, crispy batter; white, flakey fish and fluffy chips are what you'll find at Tony's! The family and I have been here a number of times, and each time we have never been disappointed. The staff are always very friendly, and there's always something delicious to choose from. Don't fancy fish and chips? Then there's always the trust Pukka pie, battered sausages and even turkey dinosaurs for the little ones too! So if you're feeling that hunger strike, or you're just in the mood for a good chippy, then take a walk to Tony's and try it for yourself.

Been to this fish and chip shop with family for many many years. Always a must visit whenever we are in Skegness.

Pie & chips for less than a fiver, they were steaming hot, tasted delicious, it was a generous portion & well worth the visit.

Once a year we have a trip to this chip shop, been doing it for over ten years.

Been going to Tony’s chip shop for years but this weekend we was more than disappointed!

Still the best fish and chips in Skegness. Haddock beautifully cooked with yummy batter. Just wish you were open all year!!

Having spent many childhood holidays visiting Skegness,and subsequently Tony's I have always had fond memories.

A large and tasty portion of fish and chips at a very reasonable price. Outdoor seating area was very useful as we had our pet dog with us. Staff very friendly and not long to wait to get food.

Always used to go to Tony’s chippy whilst on holiday when I was younger. Visited Skegness for the first time in a long time and had to call at Tony’s. The chips were as good as I remember and a generous portion of fish to go with them. It was probably the cleanest chip shop I’ve been to as well!

Staff were fantastic, fresh cooked chips, not to crispy not to mushy either, just perfect. Prices in keeping with others nearby.

I have been going to Tony's chippy since 1987. I have moved quite away from Skegness but recently went back and still as good. Fresh cooked and love a cup of tea with my dinner and that is always good as well.

Great service! No waiting. Didn’t have what we wanted so ungraded our food order for no extra cost. Clean and quick and kind service. Beautiful fresh fish! Would defo go again!

Absolutely amazing quality! Lovely cooked to perfection fish and the best quality chips. Very clean and a lovely atmosphere. Nice to see very lovely and welcoming staff! Been going to Skegness for years and this is the best fishshop going! Would highly recommend to anyone! Don’t waste your money anywhere else!

Another fab chippy dinner from Toni’s...the fish was perfect and fluffy and the chips were yummy we always have the best every time we visit and always have for as long as I can remember....been going for years and always will. Even the dog says woof to his sausage can’t leave him out. A fantastic family run business with excellent food and service- thank you

Always call at Tony’s chippy,good chippy. We called in this time,found it had changed

Best Fish & Chips in the area by far. Must try when in Skegness. Me, my wife, my sons and their respective partners love this place as well. Can't be beaten!

Fish and chips were the best we’ve had, still the best chippy in Skegness. Premises were clean and staff friendly and helpful

Really enjoyed cooked to order and it was worth the wait. Staff was freindly and polite was recommended by a street seller.

My food was nice but the staff were rude and disrespectful and they wouldn’t be nice and we waited ages and people huts walked in and ordered while we were in a queue and the staff didn’t stop them .

We had cod chips and gravy the cod was freshly cooked for us we waited 8 minutes and it was worth the wait.

The fish and chips we had was ok a bit greasy and very expensive. The greeting I got from the staff was friendly and polite.And we had to clear our own table and it was not very busy . Don’t think we would return plenty of other choices around
