    Family combo
    S O.

    We initially came to this place in hopes of finding some authentic British fish and chips. However, we were left disappointed by the bland flavors. Family combo (2.5/5): The family combo we ordered had five pieces of fried fish, five pieces of fried chicken, and 21 pieces of popcorn shrimp, along with hush puppies and coleslaw. Both the fish and chicken lacked flavor without the condiments. The fries were also not very crispy. Clam chowder (5/5): The clam chowder, however, was filled with a good amount of clams. Service is counter service and the interior had a holiday pub vibe with all the Christmas decor. This was a fine meal in a pinch, but not sure if I would come back.

    So you think living minutes from Pismo, Avila, Shell beach and Morro Bay that we must have had the best fish and chips! Nope, it's Lompoc! That's right ladies and gents, this little gem right here is beyond delicious. Staff here is friendly and the ambiance is quite pleasant and welcoming. Anytime we go to Lompoc Alfie's is a must stop by

    It's been at least 20 years since the last time I was in Lompoc. I was thrilled to see that Alfie's was still open. The restaurant changed for the better. The food stayed delicious. The fish was crispy and not oily. I got the 3-piece combo which was a lot with the fries. I will definitely come back the next time I'm in Lompoc.

    Found the place through Yelp and so glad I did. I went with the two piece fish and chips. You get two 3 oz pieces of fried fish, fries, and hush puppies. They also put some of the fried batter that falls off the fish when frying. They had three different kinds of malt vinegar which was interesting. One was a little on the strong side, it said it was craft brewed. I went with the brand called Four Monks. The fries were crispy but the hush puppies were awesome.

    Stopped by with my family to grab a late lunch. I didn't know what "hushpuppies" were, so I asked the guy. And he gave me not only a detailed description but 2 free samples of these "hushpuppies." We chatted a little bit, and I found he was the owner of the place. He said the restaurant was around since the 1960s, and he loved this town (Lompoc.) I ordered the combo bucket, which included fish, chips, chicken strips, hushpuppies, and coleslaw. And these were de-licious!!! Even my mom, who doesn't usually eat fried food, thoroughly enjoyed this bucket of fried mess. Too bad it's 5 hours away from my house. Otherwise, I'd probably come here at least twice a week! The inside of the restaurant was inviting and spacious, and it looks like a great place for a group hang out as well as family's gatherings.

    Quaint small town fish & chips spot. They have wine & beer. Friendly service, but it seems like it's just 1 person manned. Although it didn't take too long for our food. You could tell that the fish was fried in fresh oil because the batter was super crispy, didn't have a weird aftertaste, and it was a beautiful golden brown. Parking is small. Bottles of condiments and table were a little greasy/sticky. Women's restroom was clean but stank. Not sure if that's a sewer piping issue like some places have. Clam chowder was good. $68 for party of 4.

    This was a random find for me. I was in Lompoc to check up on a construction project. My stomach was rumbling but the only options in town were tacos, pizza or hamburgers and none of that perked my interest. I stumbled on Alfie's Fish and Chips. I ordered the two piece complete which comes with hush puppies and coleslaw as well. The fish was breaded and fried to perfection. The hush puppies had a nice crunch but not overdone. The employees were friendly and professional and the place is spotlessly clean. Alfie's was a great find. Will definitely eat here again!

    I saw this place featured on the local news, so I had to try it out. I thought it was certainly fine, but definitely overrated. The service is counter style, so you order at the counter, find yourself a place to sit and and they let you know when order is ready. They may offer the most authentic English Fish and Chips, but I certainly have had much better elsewhere. The fried fish was very crispy, but not necessarily the tastiest. The fries were also very crispy, but seemed to have the texture of being previously frozen. I ordered the two pieces of fish and chips which goes for $12.79. It's served on a bed of deep fried shredded onions which I've not seen anywhere else. I didn't find this particularly appetizing and perhaps that's what makes it so authentic. This gives the basket the appearance of looking much fuller. Personally, I'd rather they offered more chips to fill the basket.

    Last night I had one of the finest seafood casual dining experiences at Alfie's. I am on a week-long business trip for training and staying at a local Embassy Suites in Lompoc. After a long day of work, I was feeling some fish and chips calling my name and chose Alfie's for its proximity and easy-to-find location. From the street, the place has a curb appeal and looks and feels like a nice and fun place to eat. There was no second guessing myself after walking through the front door. The smell of delicious seafood enticed all my senses. The place is well-themed with beautiful décor inside and plenty of seating for dining couple, families, or large groups. The gentleman at the front counter made excellent, knowledgeable dinner suggestions to me based on my preferences he inquired to know before I made an order. I spent just over $50 (including a tip for the nice counter guy) and settled on a Clam Chowder with a Bread bowl, Cajun Catfish Combo with Shoestring fries, an order of Calamari and four Jumbo Shrimp Side entrées. I was offered containers to take ketchup, lemons and other items from the self-serve condiment counter while waiting for my order. When my order was ready the presentation was beautiful. The items were individually properly and neatly packaged in a large bag for take-out. The bag smelled so good and special that I strapped it in my front passenger seat as if it were a child. When I got to the hotel down the road, I unpacked the food on the table and dived in. The food was still hot (as if it were fresh out of the kitchen) and I enjoyed the best dinner ever. The clam chowder was full of flavor; creamy and chunky with just the right amount of crunch with the added oyster crackers. The bread bowl was warm inside with a crispy outer crust. (They even gave me the gluten-doughy-center core from the bread bowl, which I loved!) The Jumbo Shrimp was perfectly seasoned and crispy. The calamari was excellent. The catfish was perfect-- juicy with the perfect amount of herbs and spices and crunch. The meal was enough for two people, but I binged, and the post-meal coma made me feel like a king for the rest of the night. Before this week is over I am coming back for more. This restaurant is a model for what others should strive to become. Thank you!

    This is supposed to be Coconut Shrimp. Very disappointed, have never had a bad experience until now.

Sorry to say this place is as many have said, a tourist trap. The halibut batter lacked seasoning it was practically tasteless. It's freshly fried however. Fries upgrade helped the fries only. The entire basket didn't taste much like anything and the tartar didn't help. The clam chowder was very salty. And I mean, very. It barely had clams in it and didn't taste rich and mostly had big cubes of potato. It was disappointing. The lines can get very long very fast. They have a good spot with greats views or Morro Rock. Parking is free everywhere to my knowledge.

My son ordered the carne asada tacos and couldn't stop talking about how good they were. He loved the seasoning and the flavor. I had the ahi burger, and it was cooked perfectly -- great texture, well-seasoned, and full of flavor. My wife ordered the original fish tacos, and they were outstanding. Fresh ingredients, balanced flavors, and great quality overall. One thing we really appreciated was the three different house sauces they offer. Each one was excellent and totally changes the experience depending on your palate. Whether you like something sweet, spicy, or slightly tangy to balance everything out, they've got you covered. It's a nice touch that lets everyone customize their meal. You can really taste the freshness in everything. It's a great family-friendly spot but also perfect if you just want to hang out at the bar and enjoy good food and good vibes. We had an awesome time and will definitely be back.
