the best fish and chip shop I've ever been. eat and take off. I heard many great things about this place. it won a few awards and has a lot of praise from people I know, not too far from the train station. there is a take-off section and eat in the section of the restaurant. does not look so much from the outside. I felt like I went to a chic restaurant when I made foot in the restaurant. great ambiente and atmospher... View all feedback.

This place has the best chips! love their garlic sauce; also, they are not stingy with their sauces they will find here in the rule a waitsnake, but it does not take more than 10 minutes, I must have their chips at least twice in the month!

One of the best places where I had chips here and the chili sauce is here on point, it's a busy place, they might have to wait, but it's worth it.

The best fishing and chips in london. this chippie has been there since I was a child and gets better and better.

Nestled conveniently near the train station, this award-winning fish and chips restaurant has garnered a loyal following for its exceptional chips and delightful garlic sauce, often prompting repeat visits. While some diners report a decline in quality and rising prices, many rave about the perfectly cooked fish, vibrant atmosphere, and attentive service. Whether dining in or taking away, customers consistently praise the freshness and flavor of the dishes, including their top-notch halibut and cod. This gem of a restaurant promises a memorable feast, perfect for both locals and visitors alike.

The fries are tasty, I have visited this place several times. It would be awesome if they had vegetarian battered sausages on the menu.

Skipjacks has been a Family favourite for years where the staff are friendly. This time we returned for family reunion and celebration. Between us we had various kinds fish and chips including Plaice Fillet coated in matzah meal, Fish Kebabs, and chips with sides of peas, mushy peas and salads. Served with the Chips big and chunky. The mushy peas are traditional. The salad is rough cut nothing delicate. This is traditional, old school Fish Chips done well. Accept that and you'll have a great meal.

We always get a takeaway but I’m told eating in is always good. Top quality and a tried tested method. Some say it’s the best anywhere. A v loyal following for good reason. They know what they know and continue to get it right!

Found Skipjacks through the National Federation of Fish Fryers directory and saw that they had a quality mark for award winning fish and chips. So when we realised we could come home from a trip out via here we stopped off and wasn’t disappointed. They have a takeaway and a restaurant, which is decorated in a very traditional way. So when you order your food it comes fresh from next door. The chips were done perfectly and the Cod was incredible, perfectly cooked and beautiful large flakes of fish on the plate. We also ordered childrens portion of fish fingers and chips, which was above what we would expect to pay for a toddler portion £9.90) however their ‘fish fingers’ was again beautiful white fish accompanied by their chips. The quality here is miles above what you see from the majority of fish and chip shops in cornwall, and of the high standard you might see next to the sea somewhere like cornwall. If however they wanted to elevate themselves they could make their own tartare sauce and not charge £2.65 for a cup of tea! But that’s the only things. If a competitor reads this and wants to know how to compete, so some courses with the national federation of fish fryers and you won’t go wrong. Worth travelling to eat.

Fish was superb but the restaurant needs a refit as the tables and chairs are old and uncomfortable. The salads are not nearly as good as they used to be. Shame as it was my favourite fish restaurant.

Just tried them for the first time. I usually stick to the same place so was a little hesitant but was very pleasantly surprised. Chips were especially lovely but the whole order was very good top marks!

Just eaten the worst cod from this shop! I ordered it from UberEats cod and chips in the box, I thought how cheap comparison to others!! Now I know why, cod normally thick white and flaky , instead of browny mushy meat with very fishy smell I don’t think it is real cod) chips ok though. I normally order from Pinner but read Skip jack reviews, I thought I try! Never again..
