  “Having used this chip shop for a number of years I considered it one of the best fish and chip shops in the area. I never had any issues with the quality at all. When the previous owners retired I was assured that nothing was going to change. For the first few times I used them it didn’t. Then came the food last night, it was possibly the worst fish and chips I’ve ever had. The chips were best described as a tasteless soggy mess, the fish was predominantly hard batter, with a metallic taste to the fish. We also purchased a bottle of vinegar which when we returned home found it had already had its seal broken so was unusable. Very disappointing that the entire order went into the bin. I wish the new owners good luck, but we will not be using them again.”

  “Chips were alright. I asked for chicken tikka. I was given Mediterranean chicken. Not what I asked for. Chicken was chicken cold and dry. I was lied to . Must remember not to go again. Remember i asked for chicken tikka. No other chips mix like ketchup that. Waste of my money for small chicken tikka 8 pound.”

  “If you’re in Birmingham and craving proper fish and chips, Harborne Fish Bar is a must-visit. We stopped by during our trip and were really impressed. The staff were warm and welcoming, which made the experience even better. We ordered the large cod and chips, and it was delicious—perfectly cooked with a crisp, golden batter and a generous portion. As tourists, finding a spot like this felt like a real win. Great food and friendly service—highly recommended!”

  “Delicious fish and chips from a family run business. Been twice so far. First time was a busy period and the fish was on the heated counter. While it had cooled a little, it still tasted fresh, the batter held together well and it hadn't dried out. The second time the fish was made to order and even better.”

  “Bought large cod and donner kebab tonight from Harborne Fish Bar. Really wish I hadn’t wasted my money sadly. Half the fish was pure batter which was hard and I mean break your teeth hard and the kebab meat had a cheap, fatty taste to it. Considering the high price now, this will be the last time I buy from here. I feel very let down on this thoroughly poor quality food. Never again!”

  “Stan at this Harborne Chip shop is a legend. Despite arriving at 1:59 p.m. for a 2:00 p.m. close, he welcomed me in and cooked a fresh large cod and chips from scratch. The fish was perfectly flaky, the batter was crisp, and the service was unmatched—highly recommended!”

  “Friendly, tasty food, very careful with allergens (nut free, inc traces and offer gluten free option), consistently best fish and chips. Only slight downside is they are cash only and local cash point broken is have to plan ahead!”
