Despite the pale looking fish the food was actually very tasty. I would definitely go back here again if ever in Hastings. Prices are much more reasonable than some on the high street (avoid the tourist trap ones on the main sea front!)
Only lost a star as cash only and there was a bit of a wait.
I took residents here this week on a day trip from the East side of Kent, after one of the residents asked to go because he used to visit this chip shop once a month in earlier years. He was completely right about the food here. The fish was lovely and the batter was perfect, even the chips were good and I don't normally rate chippy chips much. There were two staff working and they couldn't of been more helpful. It was a long way to go for fish and chips but the meal and revisiting someone's memories was worth it. We sat on the outside seating as it was one of the last days of sun we had this week and the staff brought our food & drinks out to us, great service.
Beware of the seagulls though, once you leave a route open to the plates they are in without hesitation, almost a Hitchcock's The Birds moment.
Bravo to the Blue Dolphin! 👏 🐬
We recently had the pleasure of stopping by the Dolphin Fish Bar in Hastings Old Town, where we were fortunate enough to meet Zach and his assistant. Upon walking in, we were immediately struck by the charming and cozy atmosphere, and the friendly service only added to the welcoming vibe.
As we perused the menu, Zach and his assistant were incredibly helpful and patient, answering all of our questions and offering their own personal recommendations. We ultimately decided to try the jumbo sausage and batter, which turned out to be an absolute delight. The sausage was juicy and flavorful, and the batter was perfectly crispy and golden.
In addition to the delicious food, the location of the Dolphin Fish Bar is simply unbeatable. Situated right on the seafront, it offers stunning views of the ocean and a truly picturesque setting. Whether you're looking for a quick bite during a leisurely walk or a relaxed meal with friends or family, this is the place to be.
Overall, we would highly recommend Zach and the Dolphin Fish Bar to anyone visiting Hastings Old Town. With their friendly service, delicious food, and unbeatable location, it's truly a hidden gem and a must-visit for anyone in the area.
