Reviews The Blue Mermaid Fish Bar

Dropped into this shop for an early dinner. It has 3 tables for eating in, so we did. Cod and chips cooked freshly in front of us. You could taste the food was fresh and we cleared our plates. Owner very friendly and pleasant. I would recommend this business for fish and chips.

Visited today (ate in) and was the nicest fish and chips we have had in a long time! I had the rock which was lovely and the chips were so nice and not greasy. Great portions we were stuffed! Staff really nice and friendly too, will definitely visit again

Excellent fish n chips. The fish was fresh and the batter light and crispy. The Peri Peri fish bites and tornado potatoes were delicious. Owner is very friendly, we were a group of 8 and the owners went out of their way to accommodate us and ensure we were comfortable. A place not to miss when you're in Deal. Will definitely go back.

Small fish and chips was lovely and more than enough. Waited a little longer than normal to come but we'll work the wait and very hot and freshly cooked .all 4 of us loved our meals .and the 2 young men that served us were lovely.

Stopped off with the old man today for some cod and chips. Probably the best little fish and shop I've ever had the pleasure of visiting. Its a small shop with a few sturdy, comfortable clean chairs and tables. Some pretty nice art work decorate the walls, which are also for sale. A piano sits along the wall as you walk in. As we waited for our food, the friendly owner gave us a little tune. He then later picked up a guitar that was hanging on the wall and began to strum, what sounded like, a Mediterranean melody. Apparently, the owners musically gifted son occasionally makes an appearance, and plays classical pieces on the piano. The fish and chips arrived after waiting for the cod to be freshly fried. Now, I've been to few fish bars in Deal which have at best been mediocre. This, however, was in a different league. The fish was perfectly cooked and a lovely golden colour to the crispy batter. The hand cut chips were how I remember chips used to be years ago. Soft and fluffy on the inside with a nice texture to the skin. Quite simply, this is the best I've tasted in a very long time. The cup of tea I ordered was just how I like it as well. If you're ever in Deal and are contemplating going to one of the many fish bars along the seafront, my I suggest you give this cosy little place a try instead. You won't be disappointed.

Walked from Dover to Deal along the coast with this as the reward at the end. Lovely fish, huge portions, great chips, friendly staff, spot on. If you're really lucky, you might even be serenaded by the chef!

Sat in and had my tea. Very tasty. Lovely service too.
