Reviews Doddington Fish Bar

A big thanks to Doddington Fish Bar for supplying Doddington Short Mat Bowls Club with just under 30 meals for their Fish & Chip Supper this evening. Very well organised and delicious fish and chips.

Great fish and chips good size portions and friendly staff

Fish and Chips .... Doddington We were staying at a campsite about a 5minute driveaway. I imagine lots of visitors to the site get the same recommendation we did. Our first comment is that, parking nearby many F&C places can be tricky; here it's all on street and plenty of it on a wide stretch of road in a quiet village. Don't let the outside appearance of the place influence your decision to buy here, or not. It did baffle us as to why they haven't 'tidied' it up a bit. A local told me (whilst I was waiting for my freshly cooked food) that the system put in place during past lockdown periods has been kept to and the locals like it a lot ... they ring their order through and get given a time to collect. I could see a lot of cooked food waiting collection. We always ask for our fish batter to be very well done ... almost making it look 'over'done. As I ordered I asked for this. One chap was cooking and one serving up, with a lady taking orders and money (it's a cash only place). Both guys said to me "all that in the cabinet is cooked well done"; I looked ... it wasn't what I call well-done and so I said so and asked for an 'even more well-done' piece to be cooked. If looks could have killed .... reluctantly (it was obvious) another piece was cooked freshly for us. One guy clearly not happy, the other having accepted the request. The food we had (chips, scampi and cod) were all as we wanted them. Absolutely no issue with the food, all cooked fresh to order. No issue with the price, it was pretty much the same as we find it across the country ... Scampi and Chips, Cod and Chips + 1 x mushy peas @ £21.80 It's a popular shop locally, I found the food good and the price average. It's tough to give a '5-star' review to a Fish & Chip shop, there are so many of them and everywhere that it's really hard for any of them to stand out. We travel the country all the time and visit far too many ... this was a good choice, good food and fairly priced (in today's world). Next time at the campsite would we drive further than this place to get F&C ... probably not and nor should you. Well ... not unless we receive a stunning recommendation from a local, or ... an invitation from another F&C takeaway to sample their offering for the price of a review because they believe they are better! (rolling around laughing, smiley face, !)

Excellent fish and chips. Tasty, hot and delicious. Service was quick, would definately recommend.

Great selection of food already on the heating shelves so our order came very fast. The place got very busy just after we left so timing your visit may be the best plan.

Called tonight for the first time, very impressed, large cod cooked perfectly with plenty of delicious chips. A long while since I've had fish n chips this good, well done.

Generous portions freshly cooked. A couple of tables outside to eat at, but they are quite dilapidated

Amazing plaice and chips and my husband Mike had haddock & chips. Very generous portions indeed and the batter was to die for!! We phoned to give the order which worked out very well indeed. Thank you

Best chip shop in surrounding areas. Reliable and great food. The fish and chicken is to die for and donner meat doesn't taste cheap. Very busy at peak times so call ahead with your order.

Friendly with good food competitive prices.

Considering how far this is from the seaside, not bad at all.
