About 🐟 Groby Fish Bar 🐠
On Leicester Rd, Groby Fish Bar is a fish and chips takeaway serving Groby and the surrounding area. Potatoes and fish are cut and prepared on the premises daily, and the fish arrives in a crispy batter with chips on the side. The wider menu runs to kebabs, burgers, pies, chicken, vegetarian options and homemade mushy peas, with a kebab roll also on offer. Seating is limited to picnic tables outside and a couple of seats inside, and it operates on a walk-in basis. Food is cooked to order, so a wait is common at busy times. Street parking is available nearby, with a Co-op located next door.

“My lovely friend recommended that I try Groby Fish Bar and it was the best decision ever! I had an amazing experience here. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, they even introduced themselves , which me feel ver valued as a customer. The food, on the other hand, was fabulous! The chips were perfectly crispy and tasted amazing. I also loved the battered fish, it was fresh, crispy and absolutely delicious. The kebab roll was full of flavor and easily one of the best I’ve ever had. The food was excellent, the service was outstanding and I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!”

“This is a nice good quality fish shop situated in the village of Groby. Whenever I want fish and chips this is the place I go to. The chips are well made and fish is nice well prepared. Also the fish and chip shop is very clean and had a 5 star food rating. Staff are polite and I remember the chips were cold too much and they gave me a ones straight out of the fryer This is the best fish and chips shop in Groby and for the surrounding areas of Ratby and villages.”

“I had a great experience at Groby Fish and Chip Shop. The service was excellent—staff were friendly, welcoming, and very quick to take and prepare the order. You can really tell they care about their customers. The food was just as impressive. The fish was perfectly cooked with a light, crispy batter, and the chips were fresh, golden, and full of flavour. Everything was served hot and in good portions. Overall, it’s a fantastic place if you’re looking for quality food and great customer service. I would definitely recommend it and will be coming back again!”

“Groby Fish & Chips is easily one of the best spots around for a proper, satisfying meal. The food is consistently excellent—crispy, golden batter on the fish, perfectly cooked chips, and generous portions that always hit the mark. You can really tell they care about quality and freshness. What truly makes this place stand out, though, is the staff. Everyone is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and happy to help, creating a warm and relaxed atmosphere every time you visit. Whether you’re a regular or it’s your first time, you’re treated like a valued customer. Great food, great service, and a genuinely pleasant experience from start to finish—highly recommended!”
