"What an experience with Deb's Fish Bar!! I have had previous orders from here that have gone wrong but haven’t written anything on Social media about them before as in truth even though there has been some decidedly bad meals , A horrendous excuse for a waffle which look like a pancake run over by a car tyre!! Wrong orders four times!! Completely inedible chips which have basically been so covered in Grease and soggy it was impossible to eat them…So okay we didn’t order chips from there anymore!! Even a piece of blue plastic inside the batter around the fish we didn’t make a big song and dance about!!! We simply let them know and were told it was from the packaging!! Well thank God for that because if I’m going to choke on something when I eat my dinner it’s good to know it’s just from the packaging!! I do actually have photos of all of these things because I tend to photograph things when something makes me laugh when I’m really gobsmacked by the state of it!! But overall,they’ve been friendly and the one thing that has always been good was the fish!! On two occasions that wasn’t the case and it was virtually all batter with greasy fish inside making it almost in edible, Photos of which I sent them so that they knew what had gone wrong along with a message explaining that I wasn’t being horrible I was just letting them know, the manager sent me a lovely message back in return telling me I could just have 20% off my next order which I thought was very kind!! HOWEVER!! I ordered from them tonight on UberEats because I had a code and scheduled the order for between 6..30 and 6.45 knowing that this would give us time to eat before we had to get on and do things. At 6:45 the order wasn’t here so I called the shop and was told they were incredibly busy but the order has gone out I would be here by 7 pm. 710 still no order! 7.20 still no order so called again and now told the order has been delivered according to the driver!! Which of course it hasn’t been!! So they would refund my order or create a new one? Obviously that late at night I wasn’t going to say yes please create a new order knowing that it then wouldn’t be arriving until even later still!   We don’t place massive orders even though we order quite a lot food from them between us quite a few of those orders have not been great, but because they put sausages in for the dogs and whatnot and the fish ordinarily has been good we have been continuing to use them!! Unbelievably The woman on the phone proceeded to tell me they will not take any further orders from me because they can’t fulfil our needs!! When have you ever heard of any food place banning you from ordering from them as a result of their f@ck ups?????!!!!!! Very disappointed to say the least totally gobsmacked by the mentality . Basically if you’re going to order from there be prepared to accept the wrong orders without saying anything, wait for over an hour for your food to maybe or maybe not arrive, May or may not be edible when it arrives or it may not arrive at all even though they will tell you that it has!! I have never gone out of the way to shame them or create any difficulty for them publicly, I have sent them photographs of the disgusting food that wasn’t just so that they could see for themselves what they had sent out and I’m not going to post those pictures here today because that isn’t what this post is about. I think it’s safe to say that the phrase good customer service has gone out of the window with these people which I would not have said yesterday after having received such a lovely message from the owner. Absolutely appalling behaviour from a business that I would have recommended to people but certainly would not again!  To add insult to injury believe it or not I just had one of the delivery drivers come to the door and try to insist that I pay for food that never actually got delivered to me this evening!!! Apparently the delivery driver went back with a ticket telling them she had delivered it to me i’m so now they thought I was lying on top of everything else!!!! You Actually couldn’t make this up!!!!!"

Debs fish bar always has the freshest thickest fillets of fish with a crispy batter and very big portions.. the curry sauce and mushy peas are also really good. The chips are such a huge portion that we now have a cone of chips between the two of us. We always really enjoy the meals from here. View menu

One star is generous Staff member extremely rude, waited 30 minutes just for a piece of fish. Georgia the server told me that’s how my Mum wants it so don’t bother coming again. Food quality was very poor, staff in filthy uniforms. Vile Place was a complete shambles, shame as previous interaction with owner was excellent.

This is my go to fish&Chip shop , the food is normally of great quality and large portions, last nights order was 4 large cod and 2 large chips with 3 pots of curry sauce, like I said its normally wonderfully cook fish and great chips...not sure if the oils was to hot but the fish inside the batter was nice but the batter was very hard to the point I had to really break it open with a knife and was unpleasant and tuff to chew and the chips looked over cooked on the outside and the inside hard at the centre.

Our previous order was incorrect, this time we ordered 4 fish and 2 chips for 5.00pm which arrived at 5.25pm after 2 phone calls for them to say its on its way we must have been the last of 6 or more deliveries as the chips were stone cold, and greasy as the fish is placed on top of the chips, the fish was slightly warm with the batter dripping in grease, it must have come out of the fryer and straight into the box. With so much grease, visually appalling, disgusting taste and texture its simply inedible garbage. I should have read the review by tracethereader I could not agree more. Avoid and eat somewhere else

What a mistake being drawn by the local adverts ! Went for fish and chips after spending a few days at the seaside quick tea. Walked in to order there were at least 8 staff on the premises who were too busy talking about sun beds and gossiping about causing trouble on Facebook. Was told that the 1 young lady on the phone would take my order in a minute. I waited at least 5 minutes for this call to end. Could not one of the other staff take my order ? One had the dirtiest top on bearing the Debs Fish bar logo it looked like she had been wearing it all week. My order was taken I did notice that sat on top of the counter from my arrival were 2 bagged orders they were sat there till just before...

"a difficult review when the restaurant tried to provide the service that I am sure they wanted. a busy Saturday midday in December, all the tables were tightly packed, there were no ceiling ventilation or were all windows open to provide covid ventilation protection. the menu is large with a lot of choice. we went for a selection of starters to share under the family. most were very small dishes, the flower flowers bites consisted only small floccules. I think that this was too expensive for everyone. for the net I divided half a steak/ale cake and crispy chili bark. the bark in the torte was chewing and blande, the chips rode in a customs of their life, and the muddy peas were simply crushed, cultivated garden. the chili beef on the other side was sensational, fully spiced, steaming hot and loads of it, with rice and crack. the dishes could no longer differ in quality and taste. similar mixed results were reported from the rest of the table. I appreciate that covid has hit local food companies hard and they are still trying to get their pre-pandemic service. there were many guests who were fed and the kitchen struggled to supply consistency; our main dishes were delivered in intervals, so we did not eat together and it took to put the net on the table. as mentioned it was brushed, but a service fee was added to the bill. I think this is a bad service, even if one takes into account the difficulties of the covid. I hope that this feedback will be taken and traded so that we can see an improvement when we visit next."

"this was my birthday contract with the children (in their 40's go to lunch big situation, but the management is missing in action. we smiled at the typos. the menu, but it turned out to be a symptom of deficiency...view to detail. very friendly (but quite inexperienced waiting staff. great location and a very warm welcome. water came pretty fast. the starters were pretty good (3 ham hock croquettes and a panko chicken. the mains were another thing. two fish and chips very nice, good portions and well presented. burger was terrible. here is the menu description 6oz coarsely ground beef burger, candied speck, soft bevel, cheddar cheese, salattomate . the reality was a burger in a bungalow with a piece soggy salat and maybe some cheese. no speck, no tomats, no wobble so £18 for an average qualitysburger and they have to pay extra for riders! To conclude that there was at least 5 10 minutes after the other net, so we sat just wait and had to ask the waitress when it came. description • crispy confit ente bein, herby buttermilk waffel, fried due egg with maple senf dressing the reality that was inspected and watery it looked out and tasted as if it were boiled to death. the herby buttermilk waffel was chewing and certainly in a blind taste test I would swear that there is no more crumble in. to cover, it was cold. the sniffing was nicely spread in the waffles that gave them a taste. we also ordered the knochenmark from the menu. No one had said to the poor waitress that they should have been ordered to tell the diners what was going on and no. the menu. when we complained, the manager had not even come the courtesy and see us they left the poor junior waiterin to explain that the speck had not come with the delivery to the last day (one ever heard that he jumps out of the super market to buy some? and there was no excuse for the missing tomats, very badly sorry for us, so on. desserts the brownie was very nice, but the eton mess was a catastrophe. it came in a small delicate glass. in the ground a buckling of whipped cream with some slabs of stone hard meringue and some earthy with stems overfilled with some earthberry syrup. after bending the spoon. we decided to solve it by hand. I was afraid that I would break a tooth on the notched position that really needed to be served with a hammer. the only way to eat the earthy was to pick them up from the body, to bite and to eat to which time our hands were covered in sauce. on the plus side, they drew the price of the burger and Eton fair and 25% of the duck, as we had 3 glasses of wine and a koks, the bill was still over £120 without drinking money. to say that by my choice of restaurants, I would be embarrassing a rough understatement."
