Very pleasant place for lunch in central Sidmouth. Basic, no frills but very clean - staff constantly clearing and cleaning tables. Busy little place with what appears to be a regular clientele - always a good sign. Good choice of food - menu more extensive than your normal fish & chip shop with daily "homemade" specials - although on both of our visits we have experienced limited availability / shortages on these specials. It was not a problem though as there is always plenty of other dishes available. Everything we have eaten here has been nice - freshly cooked, piping hot and filling. Slightly expensive for what is effectively a cafe/fish & chip shop but highly recommended for convenience, friendly staff and good food. We have eaten here twice now and will return on our next visit to Sidmouth.

A very friendly cafe. Fish and chips reasonably priced for an inside sit down meal. I live locally and always eat here.

The best fish and chips in town by far. We always come here when kids are on school holiday. The staff are friendly and respectful.

Called in as the children were hungry. Wanted Chicken Nuggets and chips plus a Cheeseburger. Wouldn't serve the Cheeseburger without chips so ended up with more chips than needed. After paying asked for a sachet of tomato ketchup. Unbelievingly this was an extra 25p!! Ended up spending nearly £12 on two small children's meals. Will certainly be avoiding this place in future. The young man serving didn't seem to want to be there. Sidmouth has some lovely cafes - this is not one of them.

Excellent service, good food ,very quick and lots of choice,prices are very reasonable, with delivery beginning of November, and the fact that you can eat in will definitely use again and again lol .

Decent food, freshly cooked, with friendly service. But quite pricey and no options except chips for gluten free. They'd also sold out of quite a few things by the time we ordered at 6pm. If you're eating in, be aware that they close the seating area soon after 6pm. Take-away stays open longer.Dietary restrictions: Very very limited. We only found chips.

Very conveniently located in the centre of Sidmouth and very busy at lunchtime for both takeaway and eat in. Seemed to be a reasonably fast turn around on tables, so luckily we didn't have to wait. We had the cod and chips, with mushy peas and tea. There is no table service - go up to the counter to place your order and pay, and then listen out for your ticket number to be called before collecting your food. The cod was excellent! A large piece of fish with large white flakes inside a very crispy batter. Delicious! The chips were a little disappointing as they were rather soft and limp, and at £12.25, I felt they could have put a few more on the plate. And the tea is a tea-bag in a mug of hot water for £1.30. Go here for the fish!Parking: Located in a pedestrianised zone, there is no parking outside. There is on-street parking and a pay-and-display car-park within reasonable walking distance.

Excellent fish and chips. Cooked to order. Fish batter is perfection and not thick stogy undercooked like most chip shops. With a nice cuppa. Just need some music on.

Adequate seating or so we thought but it was reserved. The fish cakes are not freshly prepared they are brought in and low quality the textures too mushy the bathrooms look like they haven't had a good clean for a very long time.Low value product result in ordinary average meal closes at 7

I enjoyed it two days in a row lol.. Thanks to a locals recommendation. Haddock and cod both was delicious not forgetting the fishcake and chips was amazing. Must try.. Will definitely visit in the future when in Sidmouth.

Nice fish and chips from this place. We go every year for a treat with our children. Best one in Sidmouth IMO. This year the chips weee a little cold and hard but still good. We will be back.
