Quick info
About Papa's Fish Restaurant and Takeaway
Papa's Fish Restaurant and Takeaway is a fish and chips restaurant on Sandgate Road in Folkestone, with a dining room on site alongside its takeaway service. The kitchen runs the chip-shop range, with grilled salmon and plaice among the options, and chips cut in the proper chip-shop style rather than oven-cooked. A kids menu is offered alongside the main list, and dogs are welcome inside. Doors open at 11:00am, and orders at the counter are the format for takeaway. The dining room and toilets are kept clean. Deliveroo delivery is available, though some orders have arrived with issues.

“Very welcoming and reasonably priced for a family of five. Accommodated the children really well and a lovely, chunky piece of cod.”

“Absolutely excellent experience here. Grilled salmon delicious, plaice equally so. Top quality chips, not at all greasy but proper chip shop rather than oven. Kids menu very reasonable and was enjoyed. Clean restaurant and toilets. Reassuringly popular without being too crowded. Staff very pleasant. Thank you!”
