The best restaurants serving Seafood food in Southend-on-Sea East of England

Always go here every week for wonderufl fresh seafood and also wonderful hot extras such as prawn curry and other specials which sell out quickly. Never had a bad batch from here.

We came to buy shellfish today. I have always really loved shellfish. Bought winkles and shrimps, would have loved to buy much more, but be back another day as all looked to appetizing. Staff friendly and helpful. Highly recommend. I plan to return within the week.

Just grabbed 2 cod and chips from Henry Higgins and as usual absolutely banging!! Huge portion, cooked amazingly, not greasy at all. Succulent cod in a super crispy batter and the best chips in southend. Amazing value compared to the other chip shops around. If you really appreciate decent fish and chips don't bother going anywhere else use these guys, you will not be disappointed.

I'd ordered Fish & Chips with a salad. I ate I think 2 mouthfuls and noticed in tge middle of tge fish what looked like uncooked batter, yellowish in colour. It completely put me of off the meal. I took the plate to the counter and asked "what is that, is it uncooked batter". "No I was told, it's Tumeric, we put Tumeric on our fish. "Tumeric, I repeated on fish & chips", that's completely put me off I said". At this point I was told "Well everybody else likes it", "Not in the slightest, I said", and then she went on to say, "we've always put Turmeric on our fish & chips". I wasn't offered an alternative or a fresh meal, equally Tumeric was not listed as an ingredient and I confess I wasn't looking for it in fish & chips. Also, despite handing back a virtually untouched meal, the women was actually offensive when she was overly polite and said, thank you, have a lovely evening and goodbye! It absolutely came across as being really sarcastic. I walked away feeling like I was just a pain to them, the service was awful, dreadful customer service I actually left hungry and paid £19 for the experience!

Delicious food, nice music 👍🏼👍🏼

Cash only. Good way to lose what could be a reoccurring customer as this is our local. I’ll always pay cash when I have it but on the occasion I don’t, you should take card.

fish was cold and one piece was full of bones,the chips were awful as if they were yesterdays won't be ordering from here again

It's like everything else there are good days and bad days. Compare to similiar food places it's reasonable

Best fish and chips in Southend! Large portions and tasty chips! Not the greasy soaked fish & chips you sometimes come across on the seafront!

We booked No1 for a private function, the size of the space was perfect and the food was excellent! The staff are so friendly it felt like they were apart of the celebration and chris the manager was so understanding of our arrangements and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you No1

Totally discussed with this place.. thought was coming to nice cafe to have lunch with my family.. we been waiting almost 25 minutes for our food. I asked several times why our food was taking so long????? The manager creepy kept looking behind freezer but didn't want to respond. Instead sends his girl staff to apologise for delay in food. But perfectly serving customers outside efficiently????

Great fish and chips. Please be aware that during the winter, the owner does not allow any heating in the shop other than that afforded by the fryers. If collecting your order keep your coat on ! My heart goes out to the staff who have to spend 12 hours a day in here.

Nice little meal. I was working down the road and didn't want anything too heavy so opted for the Cod Special. It was very tasty and just the right portion for me!

Visited yesterday with my husband and sat outside in the sun. We ordered padron peppers, crab orzo and truffle and Parmesan fries with a beer and a rock shandy. The food and drinks were lovely, the crab orzo was amazing and I will definitely be back to have the main size portion of this. The prices do seem slightly too high for the fries and the padron peppers considering how much you get, however we had a lovely time, enjoyed all of it and will be back. It would be good if other customers sitting outside paid attention to the no smoking sign however as it’s a small space and unpleasant.
