This place really shines if you order in advance - turning up without an order means you could wait up to 45 minutes at peak times. Really good fish and chips though. We will be back again.

I arrived on Isle of Wight Saturday and didn't have any food (as awaiting online shopping order). Decided to order fish and chips for tea. We were not disappointed, we ordered at 5.55pm and picked up our order at 6.30pm. Food was of very good quality and sufficient to satisfy our hunger. The scampi was delicious and so we're the chips, so would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.

Have to say the customer service was very very good. Coming from a place that I consider the home of fish and chips. Great Yarmouth. It's no longer so great. I've spent many years cooking, fish and chips and so is my partner. Fish and chips from this place is very very good. I was not so keen on the chips however, not overken on blanched chips. Other than that the service was very good. Skinless fish. Which I find is a northern thing. Maybe it's just Norfolk that believe the skin on these days I don't know. Either way if you're going through the village and fancy fish and chips, well recommended.

Sensational fish and chips. Friendly service, well priced and delicious food. The chips have a glorious golden colour and there's plenty to choose from. Buy your lunch then drive up to the needles and enjoy with the view!

Absolutely delicious! We're visiting the island like we do most years and this place is the best fish and chip shop we've ever found. We're going to miss it when we leave but will most definitely be visiting again on our next trip to the island. Also lovely owner and very generous portions.

We bought our supper here on the last night of our holiday. Really generous portions and delicious chips! Very friendly staff too. We will definitely come here again next time we're over on the island. Be warned though, it's unsurprisingly very popular so get there in good time or phone ahead to order. We highly recommend this place!

Good potion size and great chips but the queuing and ordering system isn't great. Had to wait 30mins for scampi and chips. They are only open for two hours in the afternoon.

Drove to order in the shop and found you could not enter the shop in the usual fashion, as there are some strong social distancing measures still in place. However, this does not stop you placing an order at the shop although they normally take your order via telephone and agree a time for collection. I placed my order through a safety screen at the door and it was ready in about 10 minutes, as I was told it would at the time of order. The normal chip shop menu items are available including mushy peas, gherkins, pickled eggs, etc. Staff interaction was friendly and the food was excellent. 2 large chips, 2 large cod, 1 pot mushy peas and 2 gherkins came to about £28.

Lunch time arrived and my stomach was hungry so gave Rainbow Fish Bar a go and I was not disappointed at all! It was scrumptious. 😋 I ordered scampi and chips and I was not disappointed. The quantity and size of the meal was just right. Everyone was very friendly and helpful and the price was just right. Would I recommend? Hell yes! Picture doesn't give it justice especially as I had eaten half before I remembered to take a picture.
