The best restaurants serving Seafood food in South East

Ordered 1 large cod to be delivered to Walnut tree , paid £16.04 order arrived 1 small cod luke warm , contacted the manager who was rude and defended the order ! Disgusting service and daylight robbery !! Avoid at all cost !!!

Ordered online via Just Eat for delivery on Christmas Eve for myself, husband and two children (aged 8 and 11). Ordered for delivery at 18:35hrs, food didn’t arrive until 19:25hrs. Called Worthing Fisheries to chase the order at 19:00hrs and was told it was collected at 18:30hrs and once it was with the Just Eat delivery driver it wasn’t their problem. VERY rude and unhelpful on the phone, two very hungry children, food arrived at 19:25hrs and was stone cold. Fish cake was rock hard, chips congealed togethered and battered sausage luke warm (unsafe to eat.) Just Eat have refused to give a refund, Worthing Fisheries very rude and not interested. Christmas Eve ruined, two very sad and hungry children, I am appalled and £30 stolen from my account for inedible food (I had to cook food out of my own fridge to ensure the children could eat). AVOID at all costs!

I know it is popular, but I can’t see the appeal. It is old fashioned in decor, menu choices and crockery and is very much a school canteen experience. The hot chocolate is watery. Queues were long. Tables are not cleaned, as you’re required to clean your own table and those that don’t are left there dirty. Above all, prices are expensive - £5 for hot drinks, £5 for cakes, £10 for a jacket potato and £16 for a meal.

It was closed and shop emptied of everything The shop was deserted and everything cleared out. It looked as though it wasn't: trading any more

It’s a genuine pleasure to write this review! From the moment we arrived and we were warmly welcomed by Ozy (who even remembered us from our last visit over a year ago), we were made to feel very special even before choosing a table for us to eat! It was my wife Joanne’s birthday and we also took her sister Linda with us to celebrate her recent birthday - from our previous visits to The Royal Fish Bar we knew we wouldn’t be disappointed. The fish was cooked to order and perfection – very large Cod cooked in a very light batter with a large portion of chips for Joanne, Linda and myself – what’s not to like! But the icing on the cake is Ozy himself who truly goes above and beyond to make your visit a special occasion – and one that we will be repeating later this year when we take our caravan to nearby Sandwich. A sincere thanks to Ozy and his lovely wife Meriem for making our visit so special – looking forward to visiting again later this year! Chris, Joanne and Linda

Kingfish is the best fish and chip shop for miles. Consistently high standards in both quality and service with a smile. They work so hard and cook everything to order, so nothing is preprepared. Why is it that they have queues outside the doors? I’ve been a loyal customer for over 7 years and will continue to be so. Thank you guys for your never ending professionalism and care.

I came here Friday and was 3rd in line the other 2 people was regulars I ordered large cod and chips one of the people in front of me ordered 2 cod and chips within 5 mins mine was ready before everyone else I know now why Chips lovely and hot and nice The cod was the worse I've ever had batter oily and crispy must have been sitting there and just put it in fat to warm up it was disgusting should have gone to my local one next door to co op in whitstable I'll know next time

Always loved going here but today the curry sauce was lumpy not the normal yummy one and my fish batter tasted like sea food so disappointed won’t go back again

A typical fish and chips shop where prices are around average for this type of establishment, which is no longer cheap anywhere. However we thought everything was very greasy and unhealthy. Probably our first and last time we come here. One plus the staff were welcoming

Great local chippy. Extensive menu, reliable quality and always generous portions. Nice crispy batter. Love the curry sauce!

Fish barely warm Veggie food stone cold (having been cooked to order!) Chips nothing to write home about but not inedible Overpriced, cash only, there is an ATM close by but no facility for Apple Pay. Don’t waste your money.

We had fantastic fish for our dinner tonight from the Wick Fryer, thanks so much. Succulent and freshly cooked. The best fish and chips.

Given the benefit of the doubt since change of owner as formerly excellent. Fish always appearing light so weighed last nights 10-14oz cod & weighed in at 9 1/4 oz. Totally unacceptable! Prepping 4-6, 8-12 & 10-14oz portions should aim for centre point weight NOT MINIMUM! Wet fish cooked to order & batter wet & uncooked on inner side & whole thing dripping in grease. Given then 3-4 chances over past few months but won’t be returning now. Great shame as used to be best in this end of town. Sadly now best avoided, but then they are all same these days it seems. £9 for an undersized cod, then add portion of chips - compare that to a £12 Carvery at the local Toby with an overflowing plate & a full & happy belly - no contest!

was going to buy some whelks but disappointingly it never opened. why have opening times if you don't open at all ?? so disappointed and annoyed.

23 of us booked to have our Xmas meal here on a Friday evening. We all pre-ordered our menu choices and a deposit of £250 was paid. The drinks seemed reasonably priced for Brighton which was a bonus. We were due to eat at 7.30 pm and moved to the restaurant. Our various starters arrived at 8.15 pm and were at best luke warm. These were consumed and we waited for our main courses, we waited and waited. Several more trips to the bar and eventually after lots of chasing the mains started appearing at approximately 9.30 pm. The beef short rib arrived cold so was returned and never seen again and when questioned we were told they were making it fresh! I returned my meal to the kitchen as it was now too late for me to eat without making myself poorly, a few others from our party had to leave before the food had arrived due to getting home for family commitments and not one person received a satisfactory meal. I felt incredibly sorry for the staff who obviously had no control over the debacle it had become. When we complained and said we would not be paying the balance as the food was not worth it but they could keep the deposit we were asked if we would at least pay for our starters! No apology was received and we suggested that our deposits would more than cover the starters. We didn’t bother hanging around for pudding and all left feeling extremely disappointed at what we had just experienced and agreed it was the absolute worst dining experience any of us have ever had. Needless to say I will never ever return to this venue again. It used to be such a good place for food and being a true Brightonian I have visited many times in the past. They really stood be ashamed of themselves and need a little more customer service training. Thanks for ruining a bunch of very hard working NHS’s employees night.
