Wessex Road Fish Bar in South Somerset

Gone back downhill since being taken back on. Used to be awful, new owners really turned it around and the place was amazing. New owners have taken it back on and it's gone back the greasy mess it was prior. Won't be back. Post response: We've been in twice since it was taken over. 1st time we noticed a significant drop in food quality. Soggy, oily and greasy chips and oily batter. Whoever took over from the original owner really turned the place around, now it's back to how it used to be. 2nd time my partner went in and gave it the benefit of the doubt but couldn't even finish the meal as was so soggy and oily.

Friendly staff and great chips. What more can you want.

I admit that I'm very very fussy about any takeaway I use 1st time at the Wessex Road Fish Bar tonight and I was not disappointed. Great service. Great prices. I had a large Cod and struggled to finish it. Although on the opposite side of town to me, this is now my 'go to' Fish Bar If you're in any doubt...take the risk... you won't regret it

Had a brilliant meal this evening, food was incredible and served really quickly. Great prices and great service. Would highly recommend going here, you won’t be disappointed!

Waited nearly 30 minutes for a very average takeaway won’t be going again I do not recommend

Best chippy in Yeovil for me. Cod was really good, chips not so good little bit soft but still ok, reasonable prices £9.20 for regular cod & chips these days is very reasonable + they take card payments as well which not many chippys round here do. Shame it’s only open 2 days a week at weekends, hope they consider opening on more days of the week as I’m sure they’d be busy.

Fantastic food and friendly staff

Still the best fish and chips in town. Highly recommended.

A proper family run business, food cooked to order always fresh and hot . SCRUMMY

THE BEST FISH AND CHIP SHOP AROUND ! service 5 * Food 5 * Hot food cooked to order. Reasonable pricing. The wait time is low, even when busy ( and its busy most nights !) Very tasty I will always go here.

Having moved to the North west of Yeovil from the South east, we haven’t had takeaway chippie for ages. We’ve just had our first takeaway from Wessex Road. It will not be our last. I’d go so far as to say it’s the best chip shop chips I have ever eaten (And I’ve eaten a lot of chips shop chips in my time). Not overly greasy, nice and crispy, the batter on the sausages was light and crispy and the curry sauce almost decadent in its thick consistency. Absolutely elite!

Excellent quality and good value for money!

Freshly cooked food, very tasty and well worth waiting for.

Fantastic light crispy batter, spotlessly clean & very friendly staff. First visit but definitely not our last.

Well worth a visit .. Good size portions ,fish was first class .lovely and hot to would highly recommend.

All the fish is cooked fresh - well worth the slight wait. Staff are friendly, helpful and nothing seems too much trouble. Mushy peas are not to my taste, but other than that highly recommended!

£4.10 for a large chips, that came in a single, tiny bag. Brand new Mercs parked out back and kids doing all the work..... Says everything about em. Stick to Polats. Far better, reasonably priced portions.

£4.10 for a "large" chips that'd feed one person, three kids working the front, ten minute wait even though empty.... Dont let anyone tell you chip shop owners are having a hard time when they have brand new Mercs parked out the back. Absolute clowns.

Lovely good, good prices and friendly staff!

Best fish and chips bar none, nice crispy batter on the fish, plenty of chips (even on small portion), and the best burgers I've had. Keep up the good work and hope you can carry on in these hard times, well done! Charlie

Shop was clean and staff were friendly however the portion size for the price was poor, chips were also very dry.

The best fish and chips in yeovil

Used to be the best chippy. Now it’s rarely open and pricing itself out of the market. A real shame

Love the staff and I love the food always happy to see the regular customers always ask how your doing ect

Excellent fish and chips,excellent service,would recommend.

Well run with efficient staff. Place looked clean and modern however I didn’t like the chips and neither did my wife. I also didn’t like my steak and kidney pie, just the flavour was not to my taste but that’s probably just me because I normally have just steak pies. Wife’s Cod was better she said it was a 7/10 with crispy batter lacking flavour and Cod flesh was ok not mushy.

Well organized. Fish cooked to order. Good quality fish. Served hot.

Heard good things about this place and by the people waiting outside it looked popular..however the food was cold when I drove home not even 5 minutes away. I was disappointed was hoping for good things I'm not put off as such I would like to try it again and hope it was just a one off.

The food, delicious delicious, DELICIOUS, cod bites were fresh with lovely batter - SCRUMPTIOUS! We decided to try the gourmet burgers, BEST burgers we have had in a long time ! - just mouth wateringly delicious, Chips were perfectly fried and side dishes were all very tasty! Just wish we lived closer as we live quite far away from this amazing Fish Bar, but looking forward to the next time we are in the area as we will certainly stop over for some more delicious food, the owners have also redone the store and it looks very clean and smart, the food is value for money and the owners are incredibly nice people as well as their staff - highly recommend this take away!!

The chips are brilliant the people are really nice

Fantastic fish and chips best in town

Ist time. Nicely cooked fish and chips. Fish not overcooked and batter crispy and thin.Regular fish 3 options availabke was large. Will visit again.

First visit and the fish was absolutely delicious. Served very quickly. Good value for money. I enjoyed the chips but hubby said not quite "chip shop chips" for him. Will certainly revisit.

Thought i would try this place one more time after a few dreadful experiences in the past and i have got to say what a total difference, bought cod and chips which,to fair was a bit of a wait,but the wait was well worth it,the fish was fresh and flaky,full of flavour and plentiful ,chips were also first class,what a difference, hope its the same on my next visit. Bravo

Amazing food for takeaway at a good price very friendly staff

Did not get the curry sauce i ordered, should of realised to check before leaving when another customer came back for a missing cod. Chips were hard and dry. Will not be returning.

Really nice and freshly cooked

Very nice meal and great service.

Small portions of chips that some how they make really dry.

Absolutely top quality fish and chips. Love the new chicken poppers!

Love the way its cooked to order.

Great chips, good amount. Kids meal also went down well.

This is very very nice fish and chips but it is a busy place but saying that I did drive past Plamers fish and chips to get there

Very nice haddock and chips. Fresh fish and nicely cooked.

Best fish and chips in yeovil. Highly recommended

Absolutely fantastic fish 🐟 and chips 🍟last night. Very friendly and always fresh and tasty 😋.

The best fish and chips in yeovil. Great staff and food, I wouldn't go anywhere else 👍 keep it up guys *Update from a year ago* We've moved house, however now drive back to your place (passing other closer chip shops) as we think is worth the extra jouney. Keep it up 👍 100% 5 STARS

Lovely fish and chips but if local it it is better to ring ahead and order as everything is cooked to order and this will avoid a wait

Best fish n chips in Yeovil, everything is cooked to order so always very fresh and hot. I would highly recommend a visit. Don't just take my word for it, try it yourself. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Fresh fresh fresh. Great food excellent customer service friendly and accommodating

After a 1 hour wait . The fish was all batter and the chips had no taste . Bought some for another family and they said the same . Very disappointed!

Nice yummy fish and chips very cheap 😋 like them very much 😉

We have been using this chip shop for a couple of years now with no complaints and lovely food. But on the last 3 visits our average waiting time for a large portion of chips has been over 30 minutes. You could literally save yourself the trip cut wash dry and cook your own spuds at home with faster results. With 7 staff working how on earth does it take so long to produce a bag of chips on a Saturday evening at peak time???? Very disappointing

Such lovely fish and chips and scampi and buggers it's the best for miles around out does Palmer's anyday .the owners are so lovely and always has time to chat and always smiking. Food is cooked fresh to order and is such amazing quality thank you Wessex road chippie for always delivering pure excellence Julie Harris

Best chip shop in yeovil by far

Nice fish and chips but a spotty lad behind the counter was a quite rude and moody

Excellent service and brilliant food and portion size, highly recommend, best if you want haddock to ring through your order

With out a doubt the best Fish & Chip shop in the south! Friendly, clean and reasonable prices. Do not eat anywhere else unless you want to be dissatisfied and disappointed. Well done guys!
