The winning combination surely…read more Winning is the buzz word here with more awards and certificates adorning the walls than you can shake a frozen fish at. For good reason too, these guys know what they're doing. Another family business in this stretch of independents they've had many years to hone down the perfect recipe knocking out fish that isn't too crunchy or too soft and chips that are just right - chunky and not greasy. It may sound over-the-top going into such detail but when you do treat yourself to fish and chips, it's got to be a good one. With mushy peas, pickled onions and some equally delicious pies to boot - Kellaway Fish Bar is well worth the visit and well deserved of all its awards.

"England - fish, chips, cup o tea, Marry Poppins, bad food, worse weather. England"…read more The description from Uncle Avi in the film Snatch may not quite do us justice, but we are often defined by our cuisine. Be it the Sunday roast, the fry up or the catch - the fish and chips. Large cod for a fiver is the going price for said tradition now that we have fished the blighters to further than seventy miles off shore. They also have haddock on the menu for the more environmentally conscious as well as crab and mixed fish cakes. More importantly however is their selling of pickled eggs for 40p and mushy peas. They don't wrap it up in newspaper unfortunately but they do have the, how does one say, charm (?) of a chippy's. Somewhat ironically they also have a poster of edible fish types next to a fish tank of seemingly depressed goldfish. Can't imagine what's got them down.

I sometimes go to Henleaze Road for a wonder around on my lunch break - back in the office I have…read moresome sort of healthy salad type meal awaiting, alas, I have to walk past the Henleaze Fish Bar, the smell of freshly made chips wafting under my nostrils and it takes all of my will power not to dive and, grab some, eat them quickly and forget all about the sorry situation. Despite my will of iron I have sampled the chips here and I would say there were above average in taste and quality for a fish and chip shop. I have never had the fish, though it does always look tasty and fresh. Of an evening they get quite a good turnover so you're unlikely to get fish and/or chips that have been left out too long.

This is my second time here. We ate here the first time we visited Bristol and had to come back…read morethis time around. Probably our favorite fish and chips pub in all of Bristol. I love the decor- very mythical fishermen with posters for movies and wanted signs. They have an extensive menu, including alcohol and their cider comes in 500ml bottles. I've been told it's quite expensive in local standards but for the atmosphere it's worth it. I'd like to give a shoutout to one of the chefs. We had shown up here and the hostess had said they were not taking any one without a reservation. But there were open tables. Disappointed, we walked out. Standing in front of the restaurant, trying to figure out what to do, the cook comes out and says they will make room for us. Absolutely the sweetest. We were so stoked to eat at this place again. He even brought out tasty food out to us himself!

Dear Deidri My name…read moreis Chris Joy im 33 and very confused ! I mean that I really dont know what to do ? Nothings right, im Torn. Im not all out of faith though with my old chip shop The Westbourne Chippy. Its just that its a Tuesday and it was inconveniently shut. And now im affraid to say I think ive cheated on them with another chipper. Its not my fault I was hungry and I had no choice. The Star Fish Bar was a good choice though ! And a by chance one at that! I have just enjoyed a fantastic cod and chips. Freshly cooked and with so many chips I have had to undo the top button on my shorts for fear of popping it off. I have to say the cod is on a par with the best of anything I've ever had. The chips are also lovely. But its the curry sauce thats going to bring me back. Its blooming superb. They also have a selection of burgers and keebabs but I didnt pay to much attention to them. And they also sell oi oi Savaloys what ever they are, some sort of sausage maybe ? They're very competitively priced. We both stuffed ourselves silly for tenner. And the service was very prompt and with a smile ! I shall be returning. But maybe I'll interchange with my other lover.

One scoop of chips at say, £1 which is something I would like to see.

The meat of the fishes were both really tender (haddock and the cod). You get a huge portion for the large size and even the small cod I got seemed pretty big. They use a gluten free batter for the fish which was pretty unique and tasty. They use rapeseed oil for frying which is also gluten free. I really don't care for gluten free food but would prefer this batter over the traditional ones which seemed less heavy! The scampi uses a traditional batter which was heavier but still pretty good. Their fries are thick and has a great texture. The fries does not feel oily. Looks like they have two locations: wapping wharf (which is closer to the city and new) and chew valley. This one is located inside a street of small store on the left and door is usually closed and you have to slide it open so be on the lookout for the name of the restaurant on the window. We parked on the street. Definitely worth a try!
