What John Munday doesn't like about Barracuda:
The fish and chips at this restaurant are top-notch, always cooked to order so they arrive fresh and hot. However, be prepared to wait at least 20 minutes for your meal. If you're familiar with Upminster Prices, you'll understand the value of this place. View all feedback.

This restaurant boasts top-notch fish and chips, renowned for being freshly cooked to order. However, diners should brace for at least a 20-minute wait, and enjoy the surprisingly high prices that don’t guarantee consistency in service. Many patrons experience frequent shortages of staples, like bread rolls, and additional costs for packaging. While the quality of food often satisfies, the overall dining experience has drawn criticism due to slow service, unwelcoming odors, and an overall lack of attention to customer needs. With so much potential, disappointment lingers for a restaurant in Upminster that should offer more.

Lovely food, not the cheapest meal but the the nicest piece of fish I've had in years.
