The food was absolutely gorgeous, lots of options for everyone. The servers were all so kind and food was prepared quickly too. Overall amazing place, will definitely be going again read more

A wonderful fish and chips restaurant. Yes, there's a long queue to get in. The food is absolutely delicious and there is a huge variety of food on the menu. We went on a Friday night at about 8. We got a table relatively quickly (despite there being a group of over 10 people who came in at the same time). The service was very good, they got us everything correctly and pretty quickly. I hope to go back again soon! read more

Squire's Fish Restaurant - Cod and chips - Fish & Chips Near Me - Braunton, DEV

mmmmm even hung over, easily the best chips and Quorn burger ever. Shame I'm a veggie the fish smelt devine. Excellent Plaice.. haha! read more

This is a fish and chip shop restuarant. This place is known for miles around. It is in Braunton which is a little town between Ilfracombe and Barnstaple. It is very popular and in the summer period it can be really busy. They have a take away place next door which is also really busy. The service is great and the staff are very friendly. The menu is pretty simple and pretty much contains chips but these are really good chips. They are some of the best chips around and have won awards for them. It is a great place to go with all the family and a great way to spend an evening out. read more

Dividing into two sections: food and service. Stop 1, food. The fish and chips I enjoyed at Squire's were easily the best I've had so far, just before the ones in Brightlongsea (can't remember the restaurant name sadly). Good deal on a huge plate and a drink for about £8.50. Service however was quite rushed, which I get because they are deservedly busy due to [insert comments about food]. On the upside, I needed a quick meal anyway as I had a bus to catch but still, 1 star taken off for the hectic atmosphere. read more

Squire's Fish Restaurant - Fish & Chips Near Me - Braunton, DEV

Living in the village and only ever having take away fish and chips. The time was now to understand all the holiday makers queuing outside for hours to be seated for fish and chips. When entering the restaurant we were seated upstairs. I have a family of six, 2 adults and 4 children. It was clean and bright. We were served in a friendly way and the food turned up without any mistakes. The food was hot and good quality. There was nothing left on anyone's plate, so everyone must have enjoyed what they were eating. I feel that there needs to be more grown ups working as waiters/waitresses and the drinks should be at a lower price. I would recommend this establishment as long as you are prepared to queue. read more

I've been here multiple times and every time I visit my parents in Devon we go here as the fish & chips in Brighton just doesn't compare. My favourite thing on their menu is the battered salmon. You'd think battering a delicate fish like Salmon would destroy the taste, however it couldn't be far from it. Couldn't bring myself to do 5 stars as the service isn't really all that, but I guess one can't really expect much from a fish & chip venue. One thing I will say is what is up with the seriously young waiters/waitresses? It seems a bit dodgy that everyone looks under 16. Talk about taking advantage of minimum wage! read more

Holiday makers love the fact they've won awards and queue down the road to get in the restaurant or for takeout, but for me they don't hit the mark. I use the 'other chippy in the village' when I can no longer resist the smell of vinegar tempting me! read more

This is a brilliant fish and chip shop located in the village of Braunton. The fish and chip shop is that good that they have won awards for being the best chip shop. You can either eat in the restaurant part which has an upstairs, or just get a take away meal which is next door. They sell a good variety of food and have lots of staff on hand to serve you. In the week there are often elderly people in there who meet up in the morning for a coffee so it always looks friendly and welcoming. When you walk past the chip shop it always smells great the prices they charge are ok. In the summer it gets very busy and there's normally big queues outside of people wanting to try there food. read more

This place is for me the best fish and chip restaurant in the world an believe me I have been to loads. I used to live on the outskirts of Braunton over 18 years ago and they were amazing then. I usually visit North Devon every year and I always pay a visit to Michael Squire and his staff for a lovely plate of Cod and chips. Outstanding value for money and still as good as it was way back in the 90's. If you want quality then look no further. Or of you don't want to que then book a table in advance. read more

Squires is the best! The food is amazing great gratitude to the chefs! Definitely think any of these readers should go and check it out and take a looksey! read more

I've been to Squire's a few times now and the food is always brilliant but I have to say I go for the comedy of the evening, the proprietress is hilarious and a previous reviewer was right about Fawlty-esque behaviour!!!! My friends had a jolly wheeze, apparently the boss doesn't like to seat children in the window so my friends hid their children and asked her for a window table which they could see was free, then brought the children in, hahaha. The service is fast, the turnaround huge, the profits must be enormous but I still say it's the best fish and chips for miles!!! If you treat the manageress as a bit of a comedy extra - she even dresses like Sybil!!! Go, it's unmissable! I kept waiting for Basil to appear!!!! Fish and chips n mushy peas, bread n butter, cup of tea...I'm coming!!!!! read more

In these difficult economic times, you'd think customer service and the need to retain regular patrons would be at a premium. Not so, it would appear at one of North Devon's most popular eateries. When some friends visited from London recently, my wife and I thought I'd introduce them to the delights of Squires of Braunton a restaurant where I have previously enjoyed a number of meals. Oh what a mistake this proved! Arriving at around 6.50pm on a Sunday evening, we were issued with menus as we stood in the doorway waiting for a table. The lady seating guests, whom I presume was the manageress, seemed rather hurried and curtly demanded we order our meals even before we were seated. When we mentioned that we thought this a little unusual, we were told in an abrupt fashion that the restaurant was closing at 7pm. It seemed strange to us that they were still seating large parties of customers ten minutes before closing time, but we took our table all the same. As we sat down, my wife remarked to one of our companions, that with the evident bumper summer trade and the number of customers still waiting, they might have stayed open later albeit it was a Sunday. Apparently listening in to our private conversation, the manageress proceeded to hector my wife about what long and tiresome hours they worked. It was at this point we chose to take our business elsewhere. Now, I've no doubt the staff at Squires do work hard and for long hours, but frankly I don't care. I expect the same level of courtesy and service no matter when I enter their establishment. If you don't feel you can manage this, then don't offer me a table. Also, a private conversation between diners at a table is just that private. It's not an open forum in which the staff can engage. I should also point out that whilst we were in Squires, at no time was anyone in our party, rude, aggressive or badly behaved. It appears we had the temerity to express an opinion within earshot with which the manageress disagreed. We've always recommended Squires to friends in the past, but never again after this Basil Fawlty style performance. What a shame the good standard of their food isn't matched by their ham-fisted customer service! read more

Excellent food, excellent service. If you're looking for a nice chippy restaurant this is the place

probably the best fish and chip shop, youll ever visit. A well run family business. visited by various 'celebs' from john mayor to davina macall.serves good healthy alternatives to the usual fried fish, such as steamed fish medleyl.hmm yumm.can become very busy in high season, so expect to queue for abit, but worth it read more

Outstanding, must be one of the Best Fish and Chip Restaurants on the planet

Great fish & Chips, great fish cakes and great service. Disagree with the comment below about not being 'family friendly' - We are a family of 6 (children ages 12, 9, 6 & 1) and have eaten twice at Squires - both times the meal was great and the service excellent. read more
