The best restaurants serving Seafood food in East of England

place has gone down hill. made an order at 20:10 to be collected at 20:40. arrived on time and didn’t receive my order until 20:55. why am i waiting 15 minutes for 3 items and some sauce to be put in a bag?? especially after having 30 minutes warning of my order. after i asked how long it’d be, the woman finally put my order together. pathetic portion of chips. i even had to ask if it was a large, at which she responded yes and it was done based on box size. box size is pretty irrelevant if you’re only filling it half way!!! absolute rip off, £5.30 for a tiny portion of chips. not happy at all.

chips are lovely, but you better hope you don’t get served after someone waiting for fish because they go in order, so I wanted one bag of chips and had to wait for the fish to cook and the order to be done for the person in front of me…doesn’t make sense when they could just do my chips and not how any other chip shop do it very frustrating also cash only is annoying!

Please don't go there. And please call me a doctor been sick for 3 days Shut this place please

Absolutely unreal service so kind and welcoming felt like I belonged there more than my own home!!! And the food oh my days the food was incredible like nothing before and the atmosphere was so lovely I would recommend 1000%

Really like getting food from the river lane fish bar, always friendly staff, the food is always very tasty 😋 I would recommend to anyone who likes fish and chips.

The fish was chunky and delicious!

Was prompt delivery and really nice but the banana fritters would of been nicer with syrup on them

Amazingly good food and large portions Fantastic value for money Staff couldn't have been better or quicker Will definitely be visiting again

Been going to the Clifton for over ten years, not staying but dining, drinks etc, spent an absolute fortune, always been friendly and great place, since it’s been took over what a change, we were here last year, only managed to get in once, place was dead, but staff say they only serving residents, now we we spend a few hingmdred pound a time and the place is dead, what’s going on, staff rude , I hope the new owners see this review as we normally here in cromer 6 weeks or more a year, used to eat every day in here but never again will I return, been turned away, rudely too many times, good luck but I bet this place has lost a fortune, keep clear of the place head into cromer, much friendlier now

Tried the Roast Beef Dinner, it was absolutely Delicious and plentiful, Beef melted in your mouth Roast Spuds, Cauli,Brocily,Peas,Carrots and Yorky pud all done to perfection and really value for money, Thanked the staff for their service and politeness and complemented the Chef, we will certainly be going back in her at least a couple more times during our holiday,

The Good - the fish and chips were lovely, when you eventually get them (see The Bad). The Bad - their food is made on order, so not like a conventional fish and chip shop where the food is pretty much already made and the service is fast. I was in the queue for probably 3 quarters of an hour (no exaggeration). As soon as you’re inside the shop, you’re asked what you want, which gives you a false sense of optimism. It just means your food is made on order though. Meanwhile, all the customers in front of you, once they start being served at the till, take about 10 minutes each. There is only one person serving and two people cooking. I understand why they’re doing this - it’s to increase their margin and avoid wastage. But all that comes at a cost to the customer who suffers awful service. Maybe think about having two people on service and see your reviews regularly scoring 5.

The restaurant was cold and uninviting. The fish disappointing (quality of fish not as good as expected) and small portions of chips. For what we had I consider it overpriced and wouldn't go again

The best fish and chips I have tasted in a long time. Friendly staff will definitely visit again. I will recommend to friends and family.

We visited this shop twice during our holiday in the area and we loved the food! There was a queue out the door both times because it’s obviously such a popular place but well worth the wait and good prices 😊

We live on the coast in Suffolk but contemplating driving 2 hours back here for our next fish and chip tea, the fish was just perfect, crispy, light and delicious. The chips were amazing too. Enjoy!
