Awesome lobster rolls...do not miss it! We go all week long on every visit to MV! Favorite place and staff is the best!

The food is always fresh with large portions. The customer service is efficient and accurate. Don't confuse the lack of a loud cheerful greetings with an unfriendly staff. The staff is usually busy and working hard. If you engage them in conversation they will reply with smiles and laughter. The owner John is usually there working in the back. There is also a small soft serve ice cream bar there. read more

Obama burger was awesome! (You'll need more napkins than you think.) I got the citrus sauce on the side, but I should've had them put it on the burger. Fish and chips were great as well! Great cole slaw. Staff was very friendly. All around great experience! read more

Sandy's Fish and Chips - Obama burger! Yummy! - Seafood Near Me - Vineyard Haven, Massachusetts

Incredible lobster roll, but the customer service was abysmal. I met up with a group of girlfriends for lunch during a girl's weekend in MV - we were chatting and catching up while we waited to be helped. Instead of greeting us, the owner told us to quiet down and that we were "distracting" her as she made sandwiches. Mind you, no one had greeted us or taken our order at this point. I assume the owner was mad because one of us cracked a joke about Trump (amongst our small group), which clearly rubbed her the wrong way. Her reaction was jarring. Anyway, great lobster roll but very rude after spending a lot of $$$ there. read more

So delicious! Love the vibe and the French fries and the fish wrap - Some controversy about the cabbage- some say it should be cole slaw instead but I like that it is not because I hate mayo. Anyway it was GREAT. read more

This place is WHATS UP! Amazing flounder sandwhich. They were busy so service was a bit odd, but the food was delicious. read more

I can see why this place is always busy! The fish was great. The shrimp was great. The fried clams were out of this world.

Best fish sandwich I've ever had. Quality of the fish is so high. Flaky and tender. read more

When I am on island I eat here EVERY day. The food is amazing because the people who run the place are the best in the business. They catered our son's college send off party, we could not have been more thankful for the introduction. Do NOT accept any substitutes. This is the BEST! Phone ahead in summer. Avoid the wait. read more

The best fish sandwich, fish and chips, fried clams and soft serve ice cream on the island and specialty dinners that are also the best bargain on the island. read more

The best fish and chips we've ever tasted but my favorite was my swordfish sandwich with lettuce and tomato on brioche bun and the special sauce . Thank you Yelp I wouldn't have found this place because we are not from the area. This place is definitely worth the drive . I'm coming back to this place on our last day before we leave the island !!!! P.S. the onion rings is to die for ! No condiments required ! Sorry I didn't take a picture cause I was just so excited to eat it . read more

First trip to Martha's Vineyard and first meal taking in fish and chips. What a delicious meal, took it back to our hotel and ate out on our balcony. Fish was lightly battered and wonderful. Wanted to get there to try the oysters, but will have them on our next visit, which I hope won't be too far off. read more

This is my new go to fish spot since net result changed hands. Got flounder and chips/fries. Very workmanlike. Oil was hot, flounder and fries were good and crispy. Package Tartar sauce was merely ok. Everything else worth the trip. read more

Most amazing fish sandwich I've ever had. I'm from the big island of Hawai'i and have grown up eating fresh fish mostly caught myself or by my family. I've never had a fish sandwich like the Grilled swordfish sandwich. They have a sauce they call Citrus and it's absolute heaven! The fish and chips won 2nd best, 1st being ono from a local place on the Big Island. I will say the fish and chips/fries could not have been cooked better. The ice cream is also amazingly creamy and thick. The prices are not bad for a fresh meal. So glad we found this local Gem. We will be back! read more

I don't think I'm going to make this review very long. I don't have to, in fact. All I'm going to say is Sandy has the BEST lobster roll my mouth has ever tasted. This lobster roll is thicc as the youngins say. I really wish I lived on Martha's Vineyard, but then again I'd be in trouble because I'd eat at Sandy's everyday. So if you're vacationing here or even are a local and haven't discovered this place yet, do yourself a favor and go there, NOW! read more

Ordered the clam cakes/balls. They were pretty darn good. I will say that two of the four were under cooked and I tossed them, but the rest were great. My wife ordered the fish and chips. Neither were seasoned. The fish was a simple batter with no real crispness on the breading. This will be great if you're on a bland diet I guess. read more

Little hole in the wall place with a couple of picnic tables. Based on other yelp reviews gave it a try for lunch Got a swordfish sandwich grilled as some on here suggest. Had the citrus sauce on it. It wasn't very citrusy but it was good. The fish was super free and tasty So if you want a good fish sandwich, try exactly what I tried. You'll enjoy it. read more

Tour guide mentioned that this place had the best fish and ships on the island. Located away from the hustle and bustle of tourist heavy areas, he suggested this was where the locals ate. Service was quick, friendly. Ordered over $200 worth of food for a group of 10. It wasn't the best fish and chips we had on the island but it was certainly tasty. Lobster rolls were also good but not the best we've ever had. There was no phone number easily available to call ahead so the menu as of June 2022 is now on Yelp. read more

Sandy's Fish and Chips - Menu - Seafood Near Me - Vineyard Haven, Massachusetts

So far, Sandy has the best Fish and Chips we've had on the island yet. Their fish and chips is a bit different than most in that it was smaller pieces of fish instead of single fillets. That made no difference when it comes to taste and crunch. The portion was so big, we'll plan on splitting an order the next time we go. Since eating at Sandy's, I've been ordering F&C elsewhere and no one else's compares. Their fish is fresh, hot, and crispy. While their fries are not exceptional, they are good and we ate them all. Sandy's is an order-at-the-counter style restaurant with eating outside on picnic tables - some of which are nicely located under the trees at the far side of the parking lot. Typically a busy place since they also have a fresh seafood market. Sally's also has soft serve ice cream which brings all sorts of folks out to cool off in the warm island summers. read more

Left a review on Johnson's fish market on accident for this place but it was incredible! Delicious food for a very decent price. Best chicken sandwich I've had in years. Will be back soon! read more

Good food Great service Nice environment. Mostly take out. Very limited outside seating. Fish and chips always fresh and crispy. read more

My mom and I went here for dinner one night on the Vineyard before heading to Lambert's Cove for the sunset. We both ordered the grilled swordfish sandwiches and they were good. I thought the fish tasted fresh but the sauce on the sandwich or grease while the sandwich was cooking made the whole thing very soggy within 10 minutes. I personally prefer the simple fish sandwiches in Menemsha, but for the sake of convenience, this was a good option which is why I am giving it 4 stars. I would definitely try it again if I were on the island and maybe something else! It was very busy and popular. read more

What a gem! We had salmon, swordfish, halibut platters, calamari, tuna sandwich and Hot Dog. Casual place with picnic tables outside. Everything was so delicious! Will certainly come back read more

Disappointed. This site has a 5 star rating. I picked up dinners for 6. Fish&Chips Fried Clams Onion Rings Fried Scallops. No question that the seafood was fresh! It was the grease. The oil needs to be changed in the fryolators. The oil always needs to be fresh to obtain the best fried food!!! read more

I ordered take out from this place today and let me tell you!!!! IT WAS DELICIOUS!! Swordfish sandwich with everything L/T/O plus the wasabi Mayo! I also ordered a side of whole belly clams. Best thing I've eaten in a long long time!!! I just love great tasting food!! As long as I'm on this island (for the next two weeks) I'll be a frequent customer!! read more

Most delicious fried everything. Shrimp, scallops,cod, .... Eat outside on picnic tables. Wonderful. Kids meals too. Very very fresh seafood. read more

My mom and I got the seafood platter and we split it between the two of us. A very generous portion of staple seafood (cod, shrimp, scallops, calimari, etc) and fries. Everything was hot and obviously fresh catch. The price was reasonable considering the tourist location, and is obviously geared more towards locals. The food was just as good if not better than anything you'd get in downtown Vineyard Haven or Oak Bluffs. Will definitely return. read more

I want to preface this review with an understanding that things have not returned to normal post pandemic and I realize service, labor shortages and supply chain aspects are having an impact. First: the food is excellent! Really quality food, cooked perfectly (fried), great chowder, fries, etc, etc. The wait was unacceptable and they need to communicate with customers, we waited 40+ minutes for take out fried food, we were the only ones in the restaurant, seemed like was well staffed (4 total people in kitchen, I don't know what the call in take out back up was and would have been fine with wait if told, read more

Fish and chips were ok. Chunks of fish not filets. They also left on the skin and a little over cooked. Not so bad that I didn't finish it, but I would not go back again. Much better fish and chips at the little place across from where I live. Did have great entertainment though watching people from different states try to navigate the parking lot while sitting at the table eating. It is just a normal parking lot so not sure what their issue was. read more

This place is a hidden gem in Vineyard Haven!! I had the swordfish sandwich which was hands down one of the best fish sandwiches I've ever had. It was perfectly cooked, fresh and melted in my mouth. Also had the clam chowder which was amazing. I'd highly recommend making a stop here if you're craving fresh seafood. Only a 10-15min walk from the center of town where the ferry drops you off. They also have lobster rolls, fish & chips etc I wish I could have tried them all!! read more

Sandy's Fish and Chips - BEST swordfish sandwich I've had. So fresh and perfectly cooked. - Seafood Near Me - Vineyard Haven, Massachusetts

Super friendly and great portions and prices. A must if you are on island during the summer season.

Amazing!!! My wife and I stopped by here today for dinner and we were not disappointed. I got the fish and chips and clam chowder, and she had the grilled swordfish sandwich....and we both loved what we had. The fish was lightly breaded and super tasty, and the clam chowder was some of the best I have ever had in all of New England. My wife was pleased to learn that they had gluten free buns for her sandwich, and she said it was excellent. We sat outside at a picnic table and really enjoyed the whole experience. Definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Martha's Vineyard. read more

Everything here is so good! The fish and chips are awesome but so is everything else. I've had the swordfish burger, egg rolls and just today had the special of crispy bass with spinach and rice. Wow! Tasty! This is some of the best fish and seafood you can get on the island. Your belly will be full and happy, and you won't be broke. read more

Ubered here in the pouring rain, stood in line, waited on a wet park bench, and the food was well worth it. Halibut sandwich on brioche, fresh as can be. Overflowing lobster roll. Big belly clams w homemade tartar. There's a fish market attached and some fishermen (smoking a pipe) in the rear, so it's legit off the boat. read more

This is the best of the Vineyard. Fresh cooked to order foods, no Premade lobster roll here fresh tasty and huge. . Brioche rolls are to die for. Fish and chips, fried clams, shrimp plates are amazing Any type of seafood cooked to order, fried grilled or nice specialty meal from Chef Oh is always awesome. Oh, and the sides are amazing, best potato salad, Cole slaw and Asian noodles are our favorite. Delectable clam, lingucia clam cakes are to die for. And of-course chowder, creamy and delicious. Want a lobster with butter, cooked and cracked ready in no time. And you can choose any type seafood to take home from the fish markèt. I cannot say enough or name a favorite.. A 5 star for sure. read more

Swordfish sandwich was the best I've ever eaten and the fried clams were crisp, plump and tasty too! Worth fighting the traffic to eat at this little gem attached to John's Fish Market! Even the tartar sauce was delicious and I'm really picky about my tartar (even more so than my dental hygienist!). read more

Their are not enough reviews ! This place must be he hidden gem of Martha's Vineyard , family run and own for 60 plus years, fresh, fairly priced and the BEST fish and chips I ever had :) Thanks Sam!
