About The Fish King
The Fish King is a fast food restaurant on Nottingham Rd in Nottingham, serving on a walk-in basis. Fish and chips form the core of the menu, with both cod and haddock offered and substitutions made depending on what has just come out of the fryer. Portions of chips and fish run large. Beyond the fryer staples, the menu extends to traditional pies, sausages, battered sausage, chicken, chicken kebab meat, and mozzarella sticks, giving the counter a broader fast food range alongside the fish and chip offering.

Customer Review Summary
Chips draw the most consistent praise, described repeatedly as fresh, crispy outside and fluffy or fully cooked inside, with several reviewers calling the portions big. Close behind, the kebab and battered sausage come up again and again as favorites, alongside mentions of chicken kebab meat and mozzarella sticks. The staff are called friendly and helpful across multiple visits. Complaints center on inconsistency: one reviewer was switched from cod to haddock with soggy batter, another found a "large" delivery portion of chips disappointingly small compared to in-store servings, and one waited twenty five minutes for two bags of chips despite being the only customer. A missing can of coke was also noted. One reviewer reports severe food poisoning after a delivery order and described the mushy peas as off, though this was a single account. Several reviewers say they will return and continue ordering the kebabs specifically.

“Ordered via uber eats. We were disappointed in general and it was very oily, mushy peas were strange and I now believe off, I now have severe food poisoning the day after. Uber eats decided refunding £2 on an order over £40 was the appropriate action.”

“Always friendly and helpful service from Hash, Alex and George. Great fish and chips. They've been there for 20 years and it's always good to support local businesses.”

“Super disappointed with the portion size of the "large" fish and chips. The smaller-than-expected portion was tasty in fairness but we 100% would have been given more if we'd gone in-store instead of ordering in. Half the family have colds so we opted for ordering instead of risking spreading our germs and this was just really disappointing. As per the photo, the fish was a decent size but the chips? Barely a small portion.”
