Highly recommend! Got take away and had it at the beach. Batter was crispy and not greasy, fish was soft and juicy, chips were divine, crispy skin and fluffy on the inside. I had mushy peas as a side, it was also very delicious. Lemon was put into a small squeeze bag which makes it easier to squeeze. Due to seagull attack on the beach, I had to hide some of my chips. Even the chips gone cold, it was still very good, not greasy at all, the skin remains crispy.

Really really delicious food. We got the sharer platter for 2 with haddock, scampi, curry sauce, mushy peas, and tartare sauce. Everything was amazing and decent portions. We booked in advance and would recommend as it was busy and a few people were turned away.

Damn good fish and chips! Was a bit sceptical about this one as from the photos the chips didn't look like the ones you get from a classic "chippy". But even though it was a bit different everything was spot on and delicious. We went for the haddock fish supper and the haddock had a really lovely batter - crispy, tasty and didn't feel oily and the quality of the fish was superb. The chips were chunky, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, not sure what potato they used but it was delicious. The sides of mushy peas and tartar sauce were equally as delicious and probably the best mushy peas I've had! This was a takeaway order to eat on the beach so I can't comment too much on the atmosphere, but everyone looked really happy and the place had a nice relaxed vibe with excellent and friendly staff. The prices, even though slightly higher than other fish and chip shops in the area and taking into account higher costs for ingredients it is definitely value for money for top quality ingredients and great flavour. Can't wait to come back and try the scampi!

The best chips fish and chips in Brighton and potentially the UK, I don't even need to try elsewhere in Brighton because these were unreal. No greasy fish batter, crunchy crisp chips, great ratios. The curry sauce was amazing, even the mushy peas were exceptional. It might be slightly more expensive than your usual, but it's worth it. A big shout out to the staff who were funny, friendly and warm. I can't recall the girls name, but she honestly was great.

Genuinely don’t think there is anywhere better in the UK to get fish and chips. The batter to fish ratio was on point. The batter quality 🤌🏾. The chips were not soggy. It had a great crunch on the outside and keeping the potato content intact. You can get those chips from places where there is less potato in the chip and you’re eating air. Scampi 🤤. Not a huge fan of mushy peas but they made what I believe to be a bland side dish flavoursome. Essentially what I’m saying is don’t bother researching elsewhere to see what is better in Brighton. It might be on the pricier side but you’re paying for good quality food. This is the place to go. 👏🏾

Lovely place! A very very tiny menu, because what they do (fish and chips), they do extremely well. We had the fish supper for two and it was more than enough. The lager was excellent (they do other alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages) and our whole visit was fabulous, and very very reasonably priced for the utter quality of food. Highly recommended.
