Reviews Overview
Most Liked
The fish and chips at Ocean Fish Bar garner rave reviews for their consistent quality and generous servings. Customers love the perfectly cooked cod, which is celebrated for its flaky texture and flavor. The chips are a standout, often described as the best in the area—thick cut and crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside.
Another favorite includes the addition of garlic and chili sauces, amplifying the flavors of the meal. Many patrons appreciate the efficiency of the staff, making it a quick stop for a satisfying lunch or dinner. Willingness to adapt to customers' needs, especially with accommodating kids, makes it a family-friendly option.
Most Disliked
While Ocean Fish Bar excels in quality food, not having dine-in options can be frustrating for those who prefer an eat-in experience. The takeaway setup means enjoying a meal at home, which may not be ideal for everyone. Some customers have noted that peak hours can lead to longer wait times, especially for fresh orders, so patience becomes essential during busy evenings.
Additionally, cash-only payment may pose a hassle for some, particularly in a digital age where contactless payments are the norm. Overall, these minor inconveniences are outweighed by the quality of food and service.

Honestly, I hate people invested in going to Fish and Chips shops that looks fancy. The job is to enjoy the food and not worry about the aesthetics of the building and Oceans delivers the taste satisfaction every time. The guys are very generous with their portion sizes as well. Banging food, great service, just a shame it's not a sitting in joint. Oh well, some things are better enjoyed indoors, and this definitely is something to savour. Best Chips around this area and beyond, Garlic Sauce and chilli sauce is also amazing.

Guys here look ready to serve you as soon as you walk in and are polite. I've got fish and chips. The place seems clean and looked after. So 10 stars for hygiene. Do expect to wait 10/15 minutes if things are getting cooked fresh.

I have been coming to ocean fish bar since I've moved to London 8 years ago. Each time I visit this chippy, always get greeted by the owner (mohammed bhai). His service is excellent. He treats all his customers with polite manner and the food is excellent. His grilled wings and fish and chips is delicious and of high standards. Never fails to impress. I would definately recommend this place. Also recommended it to family and freinds who are now regular customers. Riz victor
