The staff here are as lovely as their food. I had the cod and chips and despite it being wrapped for the drive home by the time I ate it the batter was still perfect. The fish was flaky and tasted amazing. The chips were some of the nicest I’ve had.My partner has intolerances to gluten and dairy, I contacted the fish bar via facebook and they went to the lengths of sending me photos of the packaging for ingredients and batters to confirm that she could order from here.They do a gluten free day on a Wednesday every other week, which I find is great as it really is surprisingly how many people are actually affected by gluten. Being with someone that has such problems it’s nice to have a local establishment become a staple in our month as we can now eat a take away together again after years of her missing out. So thank you Newhaven Fish Bar, for being inclusive and making amazing fish and chips of course!Dietary restrictions: This Fish Bar offers gluten free fish and chips every other week on a Wednesday.The next day is Wednesday 13th of March and every other week from then.

Chips were stuck together and definitely not just cooked. Fish was overcooked and dry. Far too much food. Should concentrate on quality not quantity!

Visited as recommended and for a Monday evening had a steady trade so a promising start.Ordered and was told 10 minutes, my response was as long as it's cooked doesn't matter how long .The fish was thick ,moist and flaky, unfortunately nothing else was good. Batter soft and wet ,chips under cooked,great shame as given the time to cook properly I am certain it would have been very good.

Tried their GF night and it was really great! The fish was well cooked and the 'breading' was as good or better than the non-gf version! It's worth a try even if you aren't gluten free. We were really impressed with the GF curry sauce as well!Dietary restrictions: They do a GF night every 2 weeks, it's so great. Their chips are always fried separately from the fish so their chips are always GF.

We stopped for fish and chips last night while waiting for our ferry to Dieppe, and I have to say they were probably the best fish and chips I've had for many years 5star highly recommend ?

Newhaven is not a place I have ever visited or ever intend to visit again. It's not the nicest seaside towns. Feels a bit rough round the edges. But the best thing about Newhaven is the fish bar. Large flakes of delicious white cod in a crispy batter and a good portion of chips made this chippy well worth a visit! Staff were friendly and price was reasonable.

Gross / Inedible.All overcooked, poor quality, poor service, very slow, limited opening hours. Will not return, regret spending £11 on a meal 'deal' there.Oh and they forgot to put salt and vinegar on it after asking.. Which I'm sure you'll all agree is the worst part of this!
My Favourite chippy on the coast. Parking is difficult but if you drive to the end of the road there is a massive car park overlooking the English Channel where you can eat your takeawayMind the seagulls!!

When we've had fish and chips from them it's been OK with decent portion of chips, tasty fish and crispy batter. Delivery man is lovely, always friendly and quick if the temperature of the food is anything to by.So why only 3 stars out of 5, simply because even though they offer a delivery service as soon as they get busy in the shop they won't answer the phone! No phone = no order = no food. Just when you fancy having dinner delivered you end up having to find something else or cooking because they can't be bothered to answer the phone. Delivery if you're lucky, hungry or Kebab if you're not.

Really friendly staff, was very happy to wait for a really nicely cooked fish and battered sausage, good size portions and pricing
