I live in hope of finding a good fish and chip shop but this isn't it. I don't mind having to wait on a Friday night but I was surprised that chips were an additional cost on top of fish. The scamp was fine but not better than anything I could have bought frozen at the local supermarket. The chicken was dry and overdone. Undoubtedly the biggest let down was the chips which were the usual overdone in fat, soggy experience which I had hoped to avoid. I might not have minded all this as much if it wasn't so expensive. Don't waste your money.

Terrible food the chips were burnt and dry fish was dry. Such a shame to see people taking advantage of being able to serve poor quality food during this time when they don t have to answer the phone

Poor service and indifferent attitude to what they...

Poor service and indifferent attitude to what they serve let's this place down. Tonight's offering was on a par with a wetherspoons, not least because they gave us fries, not proper chips, with no warning. I understand that they might run out of traditionally sliced potatoes from time to time, but they should be transparent and let their customers know before they take their money. I suppose we should be grateful... Last time they forgot to put the chips in the bag completely, forcing me to run back to the shop while my fish got cold at home. On that occasion, the girl behind the counter looked at me like I'd just insulted her mother, and bagged up the chips (proper ones that time) without even a hint of an apology. Tonight we made the mistake of giving them another try. Never again.

The fish and chips were lovely, if a little pricey.

The service however, was honestly the worst we have encountered anywhere.

The woman serving us was surly and did not exchange any pleasantries at all throughout the course of our meal.

She actually made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcome....as if we were a bother to her. It got the point where we felt too uncomfortable to ask for the things we needed.

I sat and watched her as she worked and she was so obviously warmer with every single other table.

We're not an unfriendly or unreasonable group of people; we're a group of gay women and men in our 30s and 40s with children who are relatively well behaved and some of us happen to have different coloured skin.

So the only conclusion I can come to based on us and how she treated us compared to every single other table - is that she racist and homophobic.

We won't be back.

I ordered a take away and collected my order but as I went to put salt and vinegar on the lady shouted NO that's for restaurant only the vineger is in the bag I said I don't like malt vineger that was in the sachet I wanted the chip shop vinegar in the bottle she screamed NO you can't have it I was gobsmacked so rude and ridiculous I definitely wouldn't recommend this chip shop my first visit will be my last I've never encountered anything like it

Has to be the most pompous chippy I've ever been in!
Cod and chips were good but one of the serving staff has delusions of grandeur. Let's hope she was having a one-off bad evening and doesn't interact with customers like that all of the time.

I've since been back and staff were lovely!

The fish is amazing - flaky and doesn't taste "fishy" at all (you know what I mean).

The chips are up there with the best chips I have tasted - even posh ones from reasonable restaurants. Even my kid, who hates chips, likes them.

I'll be going back.

Love this place! We eat here on a pretty regular basis, always a warm welcome. Typical....two helpful friendly female members of staff last night and as usual great tasting fish and chips! Thank you for having line caught haddock as a choice. Although cod is now considered to be at healthy levels again, a lot of concern over the massive nets used to catch and the damage the nets do to other animal and plant species. Thanks also for the cardboard take away box which is recyclable . Brilliant!

Was really excited about getting Fish and chips from here but after driving a fair distance to collect it. Was really really disappointed. Only a third of the chips were edible. As the chips were black and dry. Ordered a battered sausage and had barely any batter on it. And the batter it did have on it was dry and hard. The fish only thing that was edible was the fish. But would definitely not recommend or return. Sorry to say it was just a waste of money.

The rudest girl I've ever come across, after waiting for everyone i met outside to be served I approached the door to make an order, only for her to say " move out of the way for other customers your order is not ready yet" sha hadn't even attended to me yet or taken my order or anything.
Very poor service from a very rude girl.

Visited for fish and chips at the end of the day,where I was greeted with friendly efficient staff and I was served with a FRESHY COOKED piece of cod and chips . Best fish and chips in the area ! I will definitely be returning.

Lovely staff. Fish great... BUT the restaurant feels like you have gone to heaven, so so bright you will need to wear sun glasses. Heinz bottles filled with cheap ketchup l will never understand, we are not fooled.

Was a delicious fish and chips as always, reallyis the best fish and chips in petts wood. It has a good variety of fish and chip shop staples with some other options like chicken nuggets, although the fish looked of a much higher quality than the chicken. The price was reasonable considering its popularity and quality. The only negative was that it did get very busy and the staff did seem very rushed although it appeared they were training a new member of staff on the tills, but they had to split focus between walk in take away customers, the sit in restaurant customers and online delivery services. Overall definitely worth a visit but be prepared to wait a little during peak times.

thanks

I've lived in Bromley my whole life; chippies come and go but this remains the absolute best fish and chips I've had within take-home driving distance. There's a reason you always see people in there. I'm surprised the rating isn't higher, and having tried several options around here and beyond, I have no idea why anyone would suggest those instead (confusingly there are several different establishments nearby with a similar name).

It's all cooked fresh every time: the chips are thick, tasty and the perfect balance of crispy and soft, the cod is chunky with the batter always properly fried onto the fish (none of that gross soft batter) and the extras are really well-made (I love the mushy peas and homemade (!) tartare sauce). I was so impressed at their Covid procedure too - very safe and no hassle. Portions are always massive. If you want luxurious, authentic, ultra-satisfying fish and chips near Bromley, try this place.

Excellent quality food. Staff friendly. Shop very clean and tidy. Fed my family of 5 with not on single complaint! Didn't realise it was a restaurant so could eat in next time. High quality all round couldn't ask for more from a fish and chip shop. Best fish and chips we've eaten in a long time.

Food mediocre if you don't want tomato sauce!! Service could be much better...Having ordered fish and chips to take away I asked for some tomato ketchup and I was then told that this would normally be covered if I paid extra to eat in. At this point I'm thinking "come on...are you being serious?". The experience was very strange as I've NEVER been to a fish and chips shop that refused to provide tomato sauce without paying extra. Incidentally I was not offered salt...perhaps I would need to book a table for that and leave a tip? It's a fish and chip shop that is trying to be a classy restaurant but failing badly. As another reviewer put I felt rather awkward and uncomfortable the whole time I was there. The food was mediocre at best and it is unlikely I will be returning.
