The Gem Fish - Cornwall,Isles of Scilly

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 in Falmouth but check when they are open!!

Took the other half of for a nice fish& chips, but the usual place was closed. Have heard good things about the Gem recently so thought we would try it out. We weren't disappointed, as we were greeted with friendly service and good food. The fish and chips were great, and the missus had a veggie pie and chips, which got a thumbs up to! Definitely will be back for more soon!

Good old fashioned fish and chips cooked in beef dripping, (although they also offer a veggie option) great service in a pleasant atmosphere. The new owner explained he is sourcing local ingredients where possible which is great. Better than shipping things across the country. We ate in the restaurant area and it was the perfect treat on our holiday in Falmouth.

Rang in my order for gluten free cod chips and onion rings it was the best fish chips I’ve had since becoming a coeliac and being able to get GF onion rings was a real treat! They were very aware of cross contamination, using clean tongs, etc. Also had the option of GF cinder vinegar. My non coeliac family member had the regular cod chips, said it was the nicest in Falmouth! Praise all round. Staff were very knowledgeable and extremely friendly. I will DEFINITELY be returning on my next visit to Falmouth!

Excellent Haddock Chips. Gorgeous creamy flakes of perfectly prepared haddock complimented by really well cooked chippy chips. Dined with 2 adults and 2 kids. Dined here pre pandemic in 2019 and was so impressed we made a point of returning again when we returned to Cornwall this summer Restaurant is basic but clean, and was really quiet although the takeout seemed really busy. Staff friendly and service very good. Highly Recommended
