It's been like over 2 years since I was last here. I used to come more often when I lived here in the Roseville area. What I like about this area and Sacramento, they have quite a few dedicated fish and chip casual restaurants. The all serve real fish battered and fried to order using I think pollock fish, not those pre battered frozen fish pieces you see at most restaurants like Applebees or Chili's. These are real fish fillets. Yeah, prices have gone up since, for my usual 3 piece fish and chips order, it's $18.50, then plus tax, basically 20 bucks. Dang, I remember long time ago getting that order for $9.99! Prices are what they are these days, nuttin I can do about that. All you can do is try to make more money, which I'm tryin to do! The fish order is called and it's all tasty looking and super hot right outta the fryer. I love the batter they use here, not too thick and not real greasy like some non specialty fish and chip places. Maybe the fries could be fresh potatoes and twice fried like in England, but that might be asking too much. Normal frozen fries here. Of course malt vinegar and salt is the British way, but this is America, so you can have your tarter sauce too. read more

The service was good and order came quick. The place was clean and did not smell "oily" considering they sell fried foods. The size of the fish strip was big. Their tartar sauce was excellent! It was smooth and very tasty. Will definitely come back to get the Family Size order!!! And maybe get a bottle of their tartar sauce! read more

Anchors Fish & Chips - Front of the building. - Seafood Near Me - Roseville, California

1st ever visit. It's good, I liked the fried fish. Though it ain't earth shaking good. I make an unfair comparison to the 100's of extraodinary fish and chips plates that I've eaten in the United Kingdom. This one pales. The battered haddock here is moist and tasty. No off aromas. Not too oily. The krinkle cut previously frozen french fries are mediocre. Barely crispy outside and just flavorless mush inside. Really wish the owners would purchase a better brand of fries. Dining room is basic. Dated and well worn. Many gallon boxess of the peanut deep fryer oil is stacked right by the front counter. Place appearance would benefit with input from an interior designer or just someone who likes to clear out clutter. The 3 peices of fish with the fries costs $18.50. Sure, it's cheap eats. But for that small amount of money I can steer you to several local Japanese restaurants where a dellcious & healthier bento box lunch can be had.

First time visit for lunch. Place was pretty busy with in house diners and several big pick up orders. Dining room looks like it is straight out of the 60's diner era. Nothing to write home about. We shared the 3 piece fish and chips as I have a pretty small appetite these days. While the fish was tasty, it was very thin. The batter was super crunchy and pretty delicious. The french fries (chips) were horrible, bland and flavorless. After eating fish and chips in the UK, its hard to find a good place in the states. Oh well, for the price it is pretty good value. read more

The reviews for this place were decent so I wanted to give it a try. We frequent this shopping area often and have been craving some fish and chips. While the service is lovely and Mimi is a sweetheart, and the ambience is retro fun, the food just didn't do it for us. Everything was kinda one note. Everything was hot and fresh. The tartar and ranch are pretty good. The fish, the fries, the fried zucchini, and chicken all just tasted oil. No flavor really. The hush puppies were decent and the o my thing that had any flavor, but 5 tiny hush puppies for $4.50 kind of blew my mind. I was expecting big hush puppies and more (see pic for tiny hush puppies) We had to heavily salt everything. We spent $47 for two people. Not terrible but I wouldn't go back when there are so many other options. read more

Great fish n chips! This was our first time visiting, and the staff made us feel right at home with their warm, friendly service. We got the 3-piece fish n chips meal, which was plenty to share between two people. The batter was crispy and light, with a tasty tartar sauce on the side. Can't wait to come back and try the clam chowder next time! read more

Anchors Fish & Chips - 3 - piece meal - Seafood Near Me - Roseville, California

This is fish & chips Russian roulette. If the guy is at the register, walk out and don't bother ordering. This place is either 1 star or 3 star depending on who is working. When the woman (Mimi?) is in charge, the fish & chips are nice and crispy and flavorful. When the guy is in charge, it's probably the worst fish & chips in the country. I tried again today and got unlucky because that guy was running it. Terribly gross floppy and completely unseasoned (also very lightly battered) greasy fish I had to fight to convince myself to swallow, The fries were oddly simultaneously grossly overcooked yet still mushy (including a picture of the fries for reference/horror). It's like he doesn't salt anything and cooks at the wrong (maybe too low?) temperature. He's also an utterly joyless and morose individual, in contrast to Mimi who is friendly. read more

Anchors Fish & Chips - Yucky fries (and they seem to have switched to these frozen crinkle cut lately) - Seafood Near Me - Roseville, California

Normally the food is pretty good, but the most recent time we came it was not. The fish was okay but a little dried out in spots. But the fries were absolutely terrible. It was like the oil was old and they fries were dry and burnt tasting. I'll add photos to better explain. I've never had fries that bad in my life and I'm surprised they allowed them to be sold. I could tell just by looking at them that something was wrong because they were dark and the texture was strange and over-fried. So we're disappointed. I currently give them 3 stars because before this, our experiences were decent. But I'm turned off from returning. read more

It's a little tiny hole in the wall that I've passed over hundreds of times, but now I see why people love it. Friendly and accommodating staff with yummy bites. I asked if I could order off of the kids menu because I wasn't all that hungry: it was an immediate yes. The food hit the table fairly quickly and everything was on point. The restaurant was clean, the service was great...definitely worth checking out! read more

I've ordered #3 Fish and Chips for lunch from Anchors for well over 10 years... The food and service have always been superb. The fish is cooked exactly the way I like it, with a crispy coating and tasty fish. They get busy at meal times as expected, but I've never had to wait too long to get my food. In the 80s-90s I was in the USAF and spent some time in England. The fish and chips were great and in my experience in Auburn to Sacramento area, I've never had better fish and chips and few, to my tastes, come close. read more

The space is cute although I did not eat in shop. The cashier was kind. The food was not great. I ordered a 1 piece fish with chips and a 4oz side of clam strips. Unfortunately neither the fish, nor the batter was seasoned. Not even with salt. The cocktail sauce was too sweet and not spiced well enough, as was the tartar sauce. The clams were seasoned well enough, but about a quarter of them were over cooked to the point of being jerky on the inside. I LOVE fish and chips, but this was not it! read more

All is delicious and very reasonable. Fresh and hot. The 1 piece dinner is huge. They're always nice and fast. Fresh oil always so taste is great!! read more

As someone who has a food sensitivity to garlic/onion/dairy, I really appreciate how fresh/simple the fried fish is here. The fish is never fishy and the batter is always crispy and not overseasoned which I appreciate since I have a sensitive tummy. The fries are nothing special - krinkle cut and bland, but I don't mind because I'm here for the fish at the end of the day. read more

I walked into the Fish & Chips today, ordered my food (literally one meal) & waited about 30 minutes for my food. I could see through the curtain that only one person was there to cook. No one was at the prep station to put the meals together. The cashier doubled as cashier & meal prep per. Once I got my food I ate about 3-4 minutes later & everything was COLD so I tried to tell the cashier about my concern & she just argued with me that all food is served right away but that can't be true. The people that walked in & sat down 15 minutes after I ordered got their food the same time I did. You would think they would have offered to make things right but they just argued with me about it. I paid almost $40 which is a lot for a senior person & I was surprised at their reaction. read more

They rip you off on the tarter sauce. That is all I got and it pisses Me of when they give you a small container of tarter sauce and tell you you got to pay for more if you want more. When I'm eating and got to stop and pay to get more is BS. I will never go back to this RIP OFF place again. read more

Food was not greasy. A plus compared to other fish and chips restaurants. Reasonable prices. Service was slow, but food made up for it. Worth the wait. read more

We had the Oysters and chips (fries) and the Fish and chips. The oysters were crunchy and good flavor. The fish was perfectly cooked, crunchy outside and plenty of moist good fish inside. The fries were fine. They meals were served with cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, and a small cup of vinegar, ketchup in packets. The host cashier delivery woman was busy, very nice. The place was busy inside with 8 tables full. The restaurant is not fancy but if it was they would be charging 2-3 x the price. I thought the price was reasonable. Highly recommend if you want good fish and chips. read more

Overall it was good, 3.5 stars. We got takeout for a weeknight dinner--6 piece fish & chips, side order of prawns, & side order of hush puppies. It came with tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, vinegar, & ketchup packets. Ordering was easy over the phone & customer service was friendly at pick up. Food was packed well. The fish was moist inside & had a crispy batter. The fries were disappointingly meh--bland & too soft. The prawns were perfectly tender. The hush puppies were flavorful with a soft inside and a great crunchy outside, but they were pretty small. The sauces were fine, but I wanted more of a flavor punch, like more horseradish in the cocktail sauce. The tartar sauce (which we got an ample amount of) was uniquely smooth versus having relish pieces mixed in. read more

Very disappointed. We used to come here a lot. Food was always first rate. I was getting my truck worked on nearby so I got some fish and chips. Very nice people but the fish filets have gotten super thin. The breading is crispy but there's more breading than fish. read more

Food was excellent, and I think very reasonably priced. I had the fish and clam strips, and both were very tasty. Batter was light and cooked just right. Service as good. No complaints. The woman who took the orders and brought them to the table was friendly, polite and helpful. It's an order at the counter place, but with plenty of nautical decorations, it had a friendly atmosphere. I'll definitely go back. read more

Fish is way thinner, fries were bland. We come here pretty often so leaving feeling bummed about such a drastic change.

The fish and chips are the best in the Roseville area. It gets busy on Friday because all the people that don't eat meat on Friday. They all go get fish and chips at anchors read more

Fresh fried fish is always served here. They change the fry oil often. Portions are very generous. Flavor is on point. Fried clams are tasty. Fried oysters are good too. In the Fall they serve delicious clam chowder. Fries are a good fish accompaniment. Restaurant is run by a hard working family. Staff is polite. We def recommend this place for fried fish lovers. We try and eat there often. Good quality food. read more

Wanted to give this place another try yesterday 3/29/2025, unfortunately stale dried small portion fries old run down place high prices small portion of tarter sauce is ridiculous, will find another better fish and chips place.

Well my last review was in 2014 so it's time for an update!!! I am glad to see this family business has survived the pandemic! Still good. Still has hearty portions. They always give you an extra fish when you get anything with fish. I like that everything tastes fresh and not greasy. I always get the fish/shrimp basket. Because it is seafood, you are going to pay a bit more than say Mcdonald's next door. Only thing that changed is that the tartar sauce is no longer in the unlimited squeeze bottle when you dine-in. You get a small cup with your meal and you have to pay extra to get more. Inflation I suppose so if that makes a difference, then I am good with that. read more

Fries were over fried; fish was so hard I could nearly chew it. It's not the way, it has been. Bought $7.99 1 piece with fries. Usually they give 1 1/2 pieces. read more

Hate to do this, but this place is serving pressed chicken strips, like the kind you'd get inside a chicken McNugget. Not quality at all. The chips are also not the same as they used to be. They're not crinkle, they're now straight and tasteless. They don't salt anything. Ranch didn't even have flavor. Fish is also not normal inside, it's pressed or overly processed. The hushpuppies are ok and that's why they get even one star. To improve please use better quality ingredients and season your food. read more

We came in on at 11:30am on a Tuesday. We ordered the three piece fish and chips to split. The chips are fine. The fish is very thin with tons of breading. Some of the pieces I could hardly taste the fish because of the breading the fish ratio. When you could taste it, there wasn't much flavor and you had to use the vinegar and tartar sauce to put some flavor in your mouth. They were pretty quick with delivering food (under 1 minutes, likely closer to 7 minutes). If you need extra sauce, it costs money. I may come back and try their hush puppies or other foods, but not really impressed with their food. read more
