What heatherartley doesn't like about The Mermaid Fish:
Always call at here on way from visiting family Now under new ownership- chips nice, peas good, but never have I had a fish that is mostly batter !!! Appalling pathetic small amount of fish and shed loads of batter !!!! £35 for 3 as take out is a joke View all feedback. What User likes about The Mermaid Fish:
Eaten here a few times of late consistently tasty good portion sizes great crispy batter good chips always plenty to eat so much so that a small chip portion is my choice here...any criticism only that I always leave wondering why the portions of fish are rounder than they are long !

Attended with my family for lunch. Service from Sol was exceptional and the food was very good. Highly recommend.

The restaurant, under new ownership, received mixed reviews. While some found the fish and chips disappointing, others praised the quality and value, especially for seniors. The service and atmosphere were rated average, with a range of prices from £10-20 per person. Some longtime customers appreciated the efforts of the new owners, while others criticized the lack of improvement. However, the restaurant still attracts loyal customers, with one group of 25 enjoying a well-organized visit. Overall, the reviews are a mix of disappointed diners and satisfied patrons who appreciate the tasty food and value offered.

The experience was disappointing. The fish was overcooked and dry, with the batter tasting bitter from being fried too long. The chips were also undercooked. Th...
