Excellent fish and chips in a perfect location. We visited on a glorious day, which helped, but the fish was beautifully moist and the chips crispy. Plus, great service on a busy day. A super treat!

We were cold and wet and in a hurry for satisfying comfort food. Our food was cooked to order. As we waited, a woman came up from the beach and thanked all the staff for the fish and chips her family had just enjoyed. Our order was well worth waiting for. We will certainly come back for more.

Chips are poorly made and are served in very little portions without lids to the box and lots of paper is wasted wrapping it like an Egyptian mummy. The dishonest employees scammed me by charging me a different price than was advertised on the wall. One of the people who was taking my order saw a ten pound note in my hand and the price was increased and I lost over a pound which I was expecting to live off for the next week (okay maybe a bit exagerrated). My order took way longer than it should have. I'm surprised at this shocking service and I'm sure a tortise could have died of old age in the time it took for my order to get delivered. The menu on the wall (you know, the one that lies to you) is very misleading and isn't very clear on what you're ordering. I recommend avoiding this place because it is the worst fish and chip shop I've been to.

Beautiful cod and chips, staff friendly and helpful! Went twice during our 1 week holiday. Excellent worth waiting a year for. Highly recommended!

Sometimes this place is good, other times it's pretty poor. We live locally and come often, but last nights experience was well below par, so disappointing, especially as it's not a cheap option these days. The cod was cooked to order, batter cooked through but, and I don't know how this can happen, just tasteless. The chips were so overcooked we left well over half - it was just loads of the little bits that had been flash fried again. I would have taken it back but we'd gone to a bar that allows you to bring food and I really couldn't be bothered with the walk back. The lesson here is to look at what other people have and see if the chips for instance are any good.

Had takeaway fish and chips here. They were OK but not as crispy as I'd like and had no flavour despite having salt and vinegar. Is the vinegar watered down as none of us could smell or taste anything on them. Also was told no when asked for a plastic cup to drink from as my daughter doesn't like drinking from cans. They had them, just for the draught beer only. Sad service really.

Cycled from the Isle of Wight to Swanage for Fish and Chips. Looked at reviews for chip shops beforehand and chose Wright on the beach due to excellent reviews and location. The food is cooked to order and when it arrived it was hot and an excellent portion and was one of the best Fish and Chips I've ever tasted!!! So if you find yourself in Swanage looking for Fish and Chips look no further

What a fabulous Fish and Chip shop this is! The cod and chips were probably the best we have ever tasted. The friendly service was first class and the location overlooking Swanage Bay was perfect! We were on holiday and took our friends who live in Wareham out for a meal there. They also loved it! And if the locals love it , it's got to be good!

Travelled from Beer for a date day out and was going to eat at another chippy - however due to a power cut they were not open! Bought some bits in a local shop and they recommended here! Boy are we glad they did. The food was cooked to order - both of us ordered large cod with just one portion of chips - good job they didn’t have large and we went for the regular - the lovely gentleman behind the counter asked if we’d like him to split the chips between the two which we did. The portion was BIG! The fish was fresh, tasty and perfectly cooked with not too much batter and the hand cut chips were crunchy and fluffy - perfect! The sun shone and we sat at the tables outside and thoroughly enjoyed it. We will be back again!!

Found this chip shop online before going to Swanage and was really impressed. Food is cooked to order, hot, fresh and tasty. Chips are crunchy and fish was huge, even though only a regular cod. The chef asked if we wanted our large chips separated into 2 portions, which was ideal. He pointed out places to sit, as although there were tables outside, it was rather windy and cold. Our first fish and chips this year and these will be hard to live up to.

What a gem of a place. Happy friendly staff, who couldn't do more for us. We booked a table of 7 but had an extra person turn up and it was no problem. 3 vegans and a dairy/nut allergy sufferer, but so much choice, and help from the staff to find the right food. The portion sizes were insane and the cakes were out of this world! Cannot rate highly enough, we really enjoyed it all. Can't wait to come back (if you'll have us, sorry for the chaos)!

The was an afternoon tea birthday celebration but the standard of the food was disappointing. There were only two types of finger sandwiches. The scones had clearly been reheated and were still steaming hot 20 minutes after being served and therefore the clotted cream melted into butter and were very chewy. The staff did offer more scones. The macaroons were of a poor quality - soft and not crispy on the outside. The venue is lovely and the staff polite and helpful but overall the quality of the food for the price was disappointing.
