Harbourside Fish and Chips

The best fish and chips I've ever had - light crispy batter, beautifully cooked chips and amazing tartar sauce. My Spanish partner doesn't normally like fish and chips but this place restored her faith in them and she absolutely loved them!

Was told this was the best fish and chips in Plymouth and I can't disagree. I had a seafood platter and my sister had a huge piece of Haddock. All lovely and fresh and the chips were to die for.

The fish was cooked delicious and cooked well, but as someone who now consumes very little salt I had a slight salty after taste from the batter. The chips were disappointing in that very bland in taste, hence I give one star less. Mushy peas a tad too "liquidy."

Really nice fish and chips with fantastic batter. The upstairs seating area is nice overlooking the Barbican street. Highly recommend

Yummy 😋 Sat outside in the sunshine, next to the water. No bother from the seagulls, they were very polite. 😂 Two huge portions, couldn't actually eat it all, and a vegan meal had. We'd all go back.

Just got off a long train from London and met up with my mum in Plymouth — we decided on fish and chips at the last minute, and wow, Harbour Shop Fish and Chips did not disappoint! The service was quick and super friendly, even though we showed up on a whim. The cod was fresh and flaky, the batter perfectly crisp, and the chips were hot and hearty — exactly what we needed after the journey. It’s got that classic seaside charm and comfort, and sharing the meal with my mum made it even better. If you're arriving in Plymouth and looking for a local gem, this is the place. Highly recommended — I’ll be back!

Fish was really good. Juicy, meaty and not soaked in oil. Chips were average. I wish they had a proper wooden fork instead of that tiny thing. And they don’t have a waste bin for their customer. Everyone uses the small bin across the street, but it’s so small that their packaging ends up all over the street. They should take responsibility for their own wast

We popped in today whilst out on the Barbican enjoying some sunshine. Everything was fantastic, the food, the service, and also the food arrived very quickly, it was piping hot and tasted fantastic. We’ve been visiting the Harbourside for many years and I don’t think we can name a single time that we were disappointed with the food and service.

I was fortunate enough to visit Plymouth and discover this amazing restaurant. The best fish & chips I have ever tasted. I chose this place because it had the longest line of people waiting to get in. I usually consider that a very good sign. There are choices of types of fish, I chose haddock. It was highest quality with the perfect balance of flavor and crispy texture.

The best I've had in years! Perfectly prepared and very, very tasty. Well situated on the Barbican. Great pubs nearby too!
