Reviews Overview

Many patrons rave about the freshness of the food, particularly the fish which is fried to order, ensuring you always receive a piping-hot meal. The generous portions are a standout feature, with large chips that consistently satisfy even the heartiest appetites.
I often hear about the exceptional service from the staff, who are noted for being friendly and accommodating. Regular visitors describe The Fish Inn as their go-to place for traditional fish and chips, emphasizing reliability in both taste and service. Finally, the diverse menu offers more than just fish and chips, featuring delicious burgers and pies that keep diners returning.
Most Disliked
Despite the many strengths, customers sometimes express disappointment about running out of fried chicken, which they wish was available more often. This can be frustrating for those craving it specifically.
The takeaway side of the business, while generally efficient, can occasionally see longer waits during peak hours. Some diners prefer quicker service, and the occasional wait while fish is fried may not align with everyone's schedule. Lastly, limited options for fully vegetarian meals may leave some diners wanting, although the menu excels in seafood and meat offerings.

Really good chippy. I went just before close time and I got a really generous 'large chip' portion. Chaps were really friendly and accommodating too.

I’d been craving fish and chips all week. Did an online search and found The Fish Inn, in Barking. The service was excellent. I was willing to wait as the fish was being cooked. Good packaging, so the food was not all over the place when I got home. Thoroughly enjoyed my meal. Good portion size.

I never write any reviews on any sites unless forced to but I felt compelled in another way to write this one. This is a local fish and chip shop doing things right and I hope by leaving this review it’ll become even more popular reducing the chances of it ever leaving! The food was superb, delivered very hot by the Uber driver, they have all the options you’d expect of a chippy. Thank you very much.

I went to this place on Tuesday 5th May 2020 while fasting for the month of Ramadan. I really wanted some fish and chips to break my fast. After looking on Google, I came across The Fish Inn. The reviews and images seemed like the kind of place I was looking for. When arriving at the shop, the staff had just pulled down the shutter and were serving their last customer. They saw my disappointed face, told me not to worry with a smile and asked me to continue with my order. As I ordered, without hesitation they started to batter the cod for me. I knew it may have been easier for them if I ordered some fried chicken which was on display, considering it was closing time. They re-checked my order when passing me my bag. At this point I was pleasantly surprised to see their packaging and saw that they took pride in their presentation. Upon breaking my fast, the food was just what I had hoped for...It was honestly the best fish and chips I’ve had in years within the M25. This will now be my usual place for Fish & Chips.
