This is without doubt the finest fish shop in Falmouth. Yorkshire fishcake just like home. Heavenly first meal on our Honeymoon thanks Dom and the team a proper job👍
Found this beaut by accident yesterday, The best haddock and chips we have ever eaten. The batter was to die for as well.. We will be back when next in Falmouth. Xxxx p.s You are far superior to those two down Trago Mills end!
Just the absolute best chip shop (& restaurant) you will find.
Fresh, Friendly and luckily only five minute walk away.
I sought out Gem Fish & Chips specifically because of the online fantastic reviews. I was so gutted when I rocked up on Tuesday night and they were closed. But, I rocked up again Wednesday evening and was so glad I did.
Riva and Sean are so warm and welcoming. We had a lovely chat while Sean cooked the Cod and Chips to order. He even gave us a free tub of his new signature gluten free curry sauce to try! DIVINE. Everything was cooked to perfection. The batter was crispy but not too fatty. The fish was flaky and so tasty. The chips were amazing. We ordered medium portions and they were huge. We even had leftovers for the next day.
Even the price was fantastic! £8 for a medium cod and chips!
My advice is go try The Gem Fish and Chips but check when they are open!!
Last night we decided to try the Gem fish and chip shop for evening meal, we ordered 2x extra large fish and chips curry sauce and peas, wow freshly cook and it was amazing the largest and best piece of fish that I have every had in Falmouth.
The chips was fab crunchy and tasty, curry sauce and peas was just perfect to complement the meal, what can I say about then staff, I don’t usually mention staff on reviews but I have to on this occasion as they were just really great not pushy but I wish all staff in restaurants were as good.
I can honestly say their fish and chips are the best in Falmouth, we’ve used the rest and now under new ownership have found the best.
Well done to all at the Gem Fish and Chip Shop
Best fish and chips I've had in ages. Haven't been to the Gem in a few years, but heard it had changed so I thought I'd check it out.
Better than I remember, lush fish with crispy batter (not soggy like in some places nearby!) And the chips were just right... I'll be back soon!
A no-nonsense, classic chippie with a lot of soul and some seriously good food. Fish was tender and juicy, encased in an impossibly light, tempura-like batter. Chips were made with equal care, crispy on the outside yet smooth and buttery on the inside. Their special curry sauce is a must-try.
Best Yorkshire fish n chips down south by far. Been visiting this place for over 30 years. Well worth the trip. Hand cut chips and mushy peas with haddock to die for. Eat in or takeaway to the near by seat over looking Falmouth Bay, though keep an eye on the seagulls, 😂
Amazing. Top notch. Huge and super tasty scampi. Loved their food, their staff and the cleanliness! Found my new chip shop. You can eat in as well if you like. Really lovely people.
Absolutely delicious, highly recommend this if you're in the area!!! The batter was light, crisp, and flavourful and the fish was flakey and tender. Finish the meal off with a pineapple fritter and vanilla ice cream and you're set.
If you have coeliac or gluten intolerance then this is the best place for fish and chips. It’s an old style fish and chip shop, nothing fancy. But very friendly service, and absolutely amazing fish and chips. According to my coeliac wife, best she ever had.
Lovely folks! I wished for better tho, chips were dry and tasteless and the fish batter a little sloppy. For a chip shop these days though it wasn’t too badly priced ☺️
Best fish and chips I have had in Cornwall, absolutely superb!
Really great staff making the restaurant, truly great lovely Halloween twist withe the decorations and very good food
Really friendly people and great F&C&Pea Fritter! Really good value and good portion of chips.
Very friendly staff, the portions were smaller, but perfectly reasonable considering the quality of the food. Will definitely visit again. (in fact we visited twice!)
The menu has something for everyone, including an excellent gluten free selection as well as lots of unusual, but very welcome sides (try the brie bites!)
Well worth it and certainly more affordable than some of the more "tourist oriented" fish bars near the town centre.
Excellent authentic seaside fish and chips with friendly restaurant service.
Went in towards end of lunch break, they were happy to serve us, food was all cooked while we waited and had a couple of chips still crunchy in the middle but only a couple. Food was really good, nice balance of salt and vinegar as well, wasnt downing in it like some places do. Order was all correct and empty packets from all the family, very nice, thank you.
Absolutely lovely Haddock & Chips!!!
My last take away tonight 😣. Love the gem restaurant but all the best restaurants have jumped on delivery band wagon, ie deliveroo etc. It really is too expensive now, I can't collect my orders cos I am disabled. So prices are well above me as a treat. Good luck to the gem and other takeaway places.
Cracking fish and chips and well priced too.
