The crispy, light batter on the fish earns rave reviews; it manages to keep the seafood inside succulent and flaky. Portion sizes are generous, making every plate a great value.

Families love the kid-friendly meals, giving parents peace of mind while enjoying their meals. Overall, the quick service during peak hours keeps patrons happy without long waits.
Most Disliked
Sometimes, the outside seating can fill up quickly, particularly during busy times like Monday evenings, which may lead to lingering wait times for tables. The casual atmosphere isn’t everyone’s cup of tea; diners seeking a more formal setting might find it lacks that upscale vibe. Limited parking options nearby can also be a hassle at peak times, so plan to arrive early or utilize street parking. Additionally, some have wished for a greater variety of dessert options to cap off their meals.

I don't know if there's a competition to name Felixstowe's best chippie, but, if there was, this would certainly be near the top, On a lovely clear, crisp January day, I was lured by the unmistakable aroma of fish and chips as I cycled past. Returning from the library 30 minutes later, I succumbed! Small cod and chips: £8.30. It was the perfect day to sit outside and watch the world go by as I enjoyed lovely flaky cod in a very light batter and really nicely fried chips. I was more than happy with the portion size, small was perfect for this 71 year old. Having rated this some months ago as one of the best fish and chip shops in the area, I had the opportunity in between meetings to grab a quick bite there. My 'Pensioners' Special' cod and chips was absolutely first class and quite enough for me. All freshly cooked, with a lovely crispy batter and perfect chips. At just £6.80, I thought it to be a great deal. The young lady behind the counter even brought it out to me at the table outside, where I had perched, to enjoy the late afternoon sunshine. Excellent!

Always visit this place when visiting family nearby. The fish and chips are always fresh and tasty and there is plenty of choice on the menu. Prices seem reasonable as well. Can't vouch for the atmosphere because it's a chippy, what do you expect?
