Quick info
About Britannia Fishbar
Britannia Fishbar is a fish and chips takeaway at 95 Prince Charles Ave in Derby. The menu centres on fish and chips, with cod and chips as a main order. Alongside the fish, the kitchen also serves kebab meat and chips and tikka chicken and chips, so a single stop covers both the classic chippy order and a kebab or tikka plate. Customers walk in to order at the counter, and a queue is usual. The shop runs as an old school chippy.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the cod and chips, praising the fish and the huge portions, with one noting the large portion of chips weighed well over a kilo. Close behind are the tikka chicken and chips, described as full of flavour, and the kebab meat and chips, called very good value. Several describe the staff as friendly and efficient, and a few call it a good old school chippy that is reasonably priced. Some mention a queue, which one reviewer takes as a good sign. The caveats are limited but specific. One reviewer calls the fish and chips decent but says the kebabs leave a lot to be desired and that service is hit and miss depending on who is working. Another reports hair in the food, which arrived dry and cold. A returning customer who has visited on and off for around 30 years calls it a reasonable chippy with friendly service, and a visitor from Spain says they always stop in on trips back.
