The chips, a.k.a, fries were crisp on the outside and well cooked on the inside. The fish was not greasy at all. I had the Haddock and it was super delicious. We were a part of 5 and were seated immediately. The server took our order right away and was very attentive. This even thought it was the only table available. If you visit the area you will not go wrong at this place

There are a lot of fish and chip places in Southend as you can imagine…read more I had a lot of fish and chips on my stay here. This is, hands down, the best place. It is not a lot to look at. This is not a place to come to if you DON'T just want fish and chips. That's all it really does. Good price, Huge portions and yummy yummy fish and chips. Chips, chrispy, fluffy, not greasy. Fish perfectly battered and fishy in all the right ways. Cod, chips and a drink £7.25. Can't argue.

THIS IS THE BEST!!!!! I am fortunate in that I have eaten in some of the top restaurants all over the world and I usually go for fish, and Ye Olde Chippy ranks up there with the best fish restaurants that I have ever been in. On one occasion I had a large Cod and chips, which was specially cooked as it was a big portion, with just a little salt on the chips and nothing else. It still ranks as one of the best plates of food I have ever had in my 58 years. I usually have something simpler after the pub a portion of chips with half mushy peas and half curry sauce sploshed over incredible!!! Or on extra special occasions cod roe layered on the top of the chips/mushy peas/curry sauce thing words are beginning to fail me. People I have sent there all agree with me!!!! All the locals know too, but they keep too quiet about it, which is wrong as these people need our support and encouragement KEEP GOING- WE LOVE YOU!!!!

This has to be the most disgraceful chippy I have ever had the misfortune to visit !!…read moreCan't really comment on the food seeing as we never got any !! Well not what we ordered !! The service in this place is disgusting,, we were brushed off when after 30 minutes we had still not got any food ,, and we enquired how much longer it would be ( 2 cod 2 chips 2 cokes 1 curry sauce hardly taxing on 30th of December with approx 10 people dining !!) we were told 2-3 minutes,, after waiting another 5 we were brought a box of cold chips with a bland curry sauce ,, when questioned about the remainder of the order we got told "it's coming " ,,, after enduring another 5+ minutes he returned with a box which was thrust on the table ,, it contained a very overdone what I can only assume in a previous life was a piece of cod !! At this point we asked what happened to the other items only to be met with a shrug of the shoulders and told " dunno" and the waiter then walked off !!! At this point we decided enough was enough and demanded a refund,, the staff were beyond rude and had no intention of being helpful or apologetic in any way ,,, they were impolite and dismissive,, they even had the cheek to deduct the price of our refund for the cokes that we didn't even finish !! On our exit we were met by words of well done you guys by other members of the public who had been served wrong orders by this disgusting establishment,, I can only warn people not to waste their money here because at the end of the day their customers are of no importance to them merely their Money!!!
