The freshness of the fish is consistently praised; whether it's cod, haddock, or scampi, each dish promises a delightful crunch and satisfying flavor.

Most Disliked
Some diners suggest that the cash-only payment policy can be inconvenient, especially for those who prefer card transactions. Guests may need to plan ahead to ensure they have cash on hand before indulging in their favorite meals.
Additionally, during peak hours, especially Friday at 6 PM, waiting times can extend, impacting the overall experience for diners in a hurry. A few customers pointed out that the atmosphere can get loud during these busy moments, which may detract from the cozy, casual vibe during quieter times.

Really nice food! Portion size, was really overwhelming... ordered large chips to share with hubby, but enough there for an family of five! Found my new fish and chip shop now, after not having them for awhile, due to the disappointment of Mr fry, carnation road!

Tonight I had the best fish and chips ever! I have been using this Fish Bar for many years and the quality of the food has always been excellent, but I went for the large cod tonight and my goodness, it was huge! You and your staff/family have worked so hard throughout the years and it's to your credit, as the food you serve, is te best.

Honestly the best fish and chip shop in medway, I once strayed to bryant road fish bar and the food was hideous (wouldn't even feed my dog it), which drove me to write a review for my local which deserves commending. The freshest fish and chips!
