Wings Fish Bar in Reading - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

UPDATE. Do not recommend fish. I’d stick to chips. Went back to try. Photo uploaded. Only got chips, which were top-notch. Efficient and friendly lady served me.

Battered sausage was tiny and full of hot oil which squirted everywhere, burnt myself when taking a bite. Saveloy was salty AF.

The glow up of this place is real, everything tasty and good quality

Delivery terrible didn’t know door and just left by the bin !!!!!

Best chicken and chips in Reading.

The food was nice! We also got two extra pieces of scampi which was great! The chips definitely are proper chip shop chips (although quite greasy) - also the battered sausage is smaller than in other chip shops, about 8/9cm long. Can’t complain for the price but just in case anyone is looking for reviews trying to work out if the battered sausage is meant to be that cheap! The batter is also more crunchy than flaky - I liked it but just thought that’d be helpful to know!

Very tasty, my son said it’s the best chips he’s had in a long time so will definitely be reordering

Great chips, excellent fish - Wings always delivers good food.

worst fish and chips I've had. chips and onion rings massively overdone and stale and greasy. only edible part was the pie

Beautiful piece of fish just feel apart. Portion size is huge. You definitely get your moneys worth plus more

Pie, chips and mushy peas from Wings, very tasty.

Very tasty cooked great the curry sauce is delicious

Excellent fish and chips. One of the best in Reading (and this town has some good competition). Freshly cooked to order and good value, fantastic customer service, highly recommended. Perfectly cooked chips (nice and crisp), well cooked fish with a nice crunchy batter. Cod, small chips and mushy peas cost £11.50 (cash only). I was told when my food was served that the fish was a bit small so they gave me an extra one free - can’t argue with that and they certainly want to keep their customers happy. I overheard them giving the previous customer an extra free battered sausage too.

Says delivered but I haven’t got my food

Got myself a 1/2 pounder. Worst one I ever had. Guess you have to stick to old fashion Fish and chips at a F&C shop.

I normally go to Wings for food, but it was raining today so ordered via Just Eat. Delivered on time, still piping hot, and still as tasty as normal. Great simple food.

After several visits under it's latest management this chippy has nosedived; the oiliest battered fish just soaks through the paper, the chips are brittle as if they have been reheated from yesterday. One of the worst chips shops around.

fast delivery, good food and always plenty of it.

Great cod and chips. Tasty. High quality cod with lovely batter. Chips piping hot and generous serving where single serving feeds two! Staff friendly and chef takes great care and pride in her cooking.

Paid 14.82 for a battered sausage with chips, plus another battered sausage and a curry sauce…received 2 battered sausages and a curry sauce…called wings and after answering me they just left the phone hanging for nearly 10 minutes….i hung up but now they won’t answer….nearly £15 for two sausages and a curry sauce???….not acceptable

Never bad food from wings…thanks

I was very disappointed, not awful but not great 😞 chips were deffo not chip shop chips asked for salt and vinegar none was put on. Battered sausage wasn't nice just really greasy. Huge portion sizes on the fish and chips for decent prize. Was very very greasy tho.

Excellent. Will always go to Wings, best fish n chip shop in the Caversham area.

Completely the wrong order- not impressed and it went in the bin

Food quality is great, however the attention to the details of the order are not so good. I asked for chicken, mushy peas and chips and got 2 battered sausages (which I dont buy for myself as I dont like batter) chips and a can of coke. Tried to ring them them and the line was busy constantly.

This was my favourite chippy for years. It's very disappointing now. Tasteless fish, unpleasant tasting chips. Service was okay, but there's zero atmosphere in there now. It's a shame to see Wings go down in quality like this, but there it is.

Proper fish and chips, food arrived hot and quickly, definitely will use again

Burger came lukewarm with no ketchup, just mayo and soggy lettuce. Chips were cold.

Superb food as per usual…many thanks

Best fish / pie and chips in the area chips were crispy and soft in the middle.. curry sauce was a little flavourless and lacking cheese on the chips but apart from that best that I have tried locally

Superb as usual, slight mix up on ordering…my fault though….definitely recommend wings to anyone

Wings Fish and chips Caversham is a classic dish with a satisfying combination of crispy batter-coated fish and golden fries. The key to a great experience lies in the freshness of the fish and the perfect crunch of the fries. A well-balanced seasoning, along with a side of tartar sauce, enhances the overall flavour. The success of this dish often depends on the quality of the ingredients and skilful preparation.The bad thing is that the shop does not accept card payments. Cash ony. I think when it's hard to keep hard cash shop need to change thier policy and must have card machine. Apart from that food items are very good. Thanks for the fresh hot 🔥 fish and chips 🍟

The food was OK (although chips not cheesy chips) but spending 20 minutes in the deliverers bag while they slowly delivered made it luke warm.

Wings was the go-to chippy in Cav for 30 years, but the new owners have totally bollixed it: tasteless fish, hard sheets of batter, lifeless chips. Won't be going again

Got fish and chips at 9pm Friday night on my way home on my bike fish lots of batter little fish chips all cold left overs £9.98 got home put them in the bin called the business they said come back up I said no I won't come to your takeaway ever again I would say if you want to bin a tener it's the place to go

Cod was really good but chips were awful, so crunchy just crisps really, not a proper chip shop chip unfortunately

2 Battered Sausage I ordered was not included when I called the restaurant they laughed and said maybe the driver ate it, and told me to contact Just Eat and hung up on me.

Previous review from 3 years ago when run by Mr Wing: Always consistently good. The Wings are very friendly. Fish normally cooked fresh. No dropped from 5 to 1 start. Awful god avoid!

Went in at 17.30 on a Friday night. Got fish and chips. I’ve never posted a bad review before but this was so bad I want to save people from wasting their money here. Fish was in batter with an uncooked slimy raw layer around the fish. Repulsive. Really guys if you can’t even fry fish properly just stop.

As mentioned in another review, not as good as it was under previous ownership. Food not as good and the service is appalling.

No longer as good as it was under former ownership. Chips OK but fish poor - little choice and minimal meat, and batter over cooked. Now offering burgers etc shows they are spreading their “wings” but doesn’t add value. More is less.

First time of trying and was really impressed. The food was delicious. Will definitely be ordering again.

Best chips in reading. Not soggy no blunt taste

Missing cheesy chips not happy won't be ordering again

Good fish and chips, forgot the drink unfortunately

Absolutely disgusting curry sauce was lumpy and thick chips were over cooked and wag to much batter on fish definitely do not recommend this fish nd chips

Absolutely wrank. Went in for some lunch. Ordered chips and battered sausage. Chips were 100% the leftovers from previous evening and had been re cooked and tasted burnt. The battered sausage was extremely burnt and over cooked. Couldn't even eat it. The lady behind counter hardly speaks english. The only thing this place has going for it was that the curry sauce was nice... will never be returning

Food was lovely, tried a spam fritter and it didn’t disappoint, did order two but only received one but to be fair one was big enough

Fresh, hot, tasty. If I had to be critical I would say there was too much batter, but I'm probably odd as someone that prefers the fish to the batter. All in all, excellent

Battered sausage was awful, looked like a cremated chicken ball from a Chinese. Asked for salad in my burger and looks like the leaving from a rabbit hutch. Not happy

Just what I needed on a Friday evening

Wings fish bar because their food is heaven

Too many chips the batter on the fish was over cooked

We regularly go here for fish and chips. Can always rely on tasty food and excellent service!

Quite good but the fish batter is too dark and not light and bubbly and tasty like other chip shops

Traditional fish and chips we enjoyed them very much , definitely worth trying

chips lovely but fish overcooked

Fantastic food, light and airy batter on the tasty cod, Chios are the best had and I’ve been to Witby! Great service and lovely owners.

Ordered a chicken burger for £3.5 and it was only a bun and crumbed chicken breast. No lettus,no sauce. There was no option on deliveroo to add salad to burger. Curry sauce was spicy. Chips were like they had been reheated and dry. Jumbo sausage was not the size of a jumbo sausage was the size of a small chipolata.

Used to be the best. Now the worst based on meal we just had. recooked cod and minced beef pie and wouldn't be surprised if chips were a day old either. Never again

I ordered 3 burgers for my family, all with lettuce in them. And to my surprise when I opened them all when I got back to my car, none of them had lettuce in them and the burgers were disgusting. The meat was dull and poor quality. Don’t think I will ever return.

Chips were ok but burger wasn't very nice to be honest, cheap prices which is a plus

When doing ordered food didn’t have to wait long more than happy with the service more than happy with the price food was lovely my partner had chips and sausage saveloy and chips really enjoyed it

Best fish and chips option in the Reading area. Staff were friendly and polite. The venue is small and so it's takeaway only. Portion sizes are massive, you will probably be full on just half.

Cod and chips were well cooked. Only Complaint was the batter was too thick and greasy. I was hungry and ultimately was good food.

Cod & chips is so good, it induced labour for my wife, and for a friend!

Avoid if you can. Chap never got off his mobile once while he was preparing and wrapping my order. Luckily I don't live too far away because when I got home the pie was uncooked (totally). I nearly threw up after I ate some. I quickly spat it back out and took it back to them. I couldn't believe it when I told the guy and he just smirked and asked if I wanted another. He really didn't care. Another customer was waiting for his order and I think he was having second thoughts. I got my money back and left. Went home and threw the now cold chips into the bin. I was looking forward to a nice pie and chips. Wings used to be run by lovely respectable people who cared about their customers and the food was lovely but never again for me.

This is our go-to fish and chip shop, and we feel lucky because the food is delicious, particularly the chips which are out of this world. Always friendly and fast service.

Absolutely vile meal. Chicken burger wasn’t cooked Chicken wings were reheated / overcooked I think these are new owners and quite frankly the whole meal was sub standard.

New owners with a hard act to follow but they’ve cracked it. Really crispy chips, husband loves the batter. Nearly always a queue, good value. Recommend

Best fish and chips in caversham. Very friendly and great service. Food is cooked fresh!

Best chips in Caversham, really friendly staff and everything freshly cooked.

My favourite chippy. Always fresh, hot and good prices

To be honest I'm not a great fan or fish and chips but on a rare occasion do have some chips I find a chip to a very fresh and well cooked beautiful the staff are very friendly

Brilliant service, amazing food always so friendly and nice family business. The chicken nuggets are fabulous and the chips are the best in the area

Best fish and chips in Reading. Lovely people who run the place. Nice and clean.

Great fish and chips, cooked fresh.

Always very good service and good food

I've searched far and wide across the land for a good honest chippy and can honestly say look no further than Wings Fish Bar. They do fish and chips and they do a smashing job at that. 11/10

Beautiful fish and chips extremely well organized with covid in mind excellent.

Hands down the best fish and chip shop in Caversham. The haddock was well salted and battered, the chips chunky and huge portioned. Polite couple running a clean shop, love visiting!

Delicious freshly cooked food. I have never seen such a clean fish n chip shop! Nice couple running it too 😁

Friendly, excellent fish and chips.

One of the best fish and chip shops I've ever been to. Fish always cooked fresh and thier chips are great, good value too!

Had two portions of cod and chips. Cod was good quality. Batter was thin and crispy not stodgy. Chips were plentiful and chunky. Price was £5.50 per cod portion. Chips are £2. Fair price. Premises are spotlessly clean.

Didn't eat anything as unfortunately it's cash only, no cards. I'm sure the food is fine though.

Lovely people,and always freshly cooked😋

Absolutely lovely, friendly people. Tasty fish and chips and the veggie fritters are soooo good!

Best chip shop in Reading. Lovely warm and friendly people. I've been going there for years. 100% better than the other chip shops in Caversham

Very modest looking chippy, but did a fine fish and chips. No complaints, happy to support local! Cook their fish fresh, so if there’s a queue you might have to wait a little-but that’s a good thing

As an American expat, Wings was the first chip shop I was introduced to years ago, and I still continue to visit regularly as I haven't found another that does it better.

Always fresh and crispy fish as well as some of the best chips you'll find. Nice friendly management. Cash only.

We go here every Friday and we love it!

Love wings. Best chip shop ever and lovely couple that own it.

Best fish and chips in Reading...in my opinion.

Best fish and chips I have ever had all fresh cooked to order in front of you amazing curry sause And to save a extra trip to a cash point it's a cash only shop

Good friendly fish and chip shop bin going there 4 about 15 years

Greasy horrid chips nice curry sauce

Great fish and chips and great service

I really can't see what the raving was about for this place. If people believe this to be 5 stars then they need to get out a bit and try some decent fish and chips. I'm from Hampshire and I tried this place because it had decent reviews and I needed something quick to pick up and eat. The couple who run it are lovely but I'm not going to rate them, I'm rating the food. The chips were bland and just tasted so cardboard like and the fish turned into a soggy mess once it got a slight splash of vinegar. The fish and batter was bland and all in all I thought this was one of the worst fish and chips I've ever had. People get yourselves down to Cornwall and try some proper fish and chips because this doesn't come close to what they offer in taste!
