Quick info
About Cleeve Fish Bar
On Church Rd in Cheltenham, Cleeve Fish Bar is a fish and chips takeaway operating on a walk-in basis with no reservations taken. Cod and chips is a regular order, with chip portions often large enough to share, and curry sauce is offered as a side. Children's cod portions are available for smaller appetites. The kitchen fries to order, and orders are wrapped once ready, which can mean part of the meal sits waiting on the remaining items to finish cooking. It opens Monday to Saturday and stays closed on Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers repeatedly praise generous portions, with the cod and chips often called enough to feed several people, though one review notes a "large" chip order arrived surprisingly small. Service draws complaints too: one customer felt ignored and left unserved, while another describes cold food after the kitchen struggled to fry three children's cod portions together.

“We tried to order fish and chips but (8:20 ish) but they did not look at us and felt they were not interested for us to order. Sadly we waited there for couple of minutes and felt they do nor want us there so went to another fish and chips shop in biahops cleeve.”

“Terrible visit. Although it was really quiet the team were unable to fry 3 portions of children's cod at the same time. Whilst we waited for the 3rd portion the rest of the order was left to go cold as it had all been wrapped up to soon. …”

“Excellent food and very generous portions. Everything was flavorful and satisfying. This our goto chippy despite it being a bit of a drive from where we live.”

““The fish was large and beautifully cooked, and the curry sauce had a lovely kick—rich and flavorful. But the chip portion was surprisingly small for a ‘large’ order, which was disappointing. Still, the overall quality of the food was excellent. Hoping for more chips next time!””
- Mike Litchfield
“Portion control is not the name of the game here, and THANK GOODNESS for that! The cod and chips are always tasty, and as I say, a large portion of chips often feeds three. Could possibly be five stars if the service was a little better, a little cheerier perhaps. But the great tasting nosh can make up for the 'awkwardness' in the shop.”
