About Rumbles Fish Bar | Peterborough
Rumbles Fish Bar is a fish and chips shop at 282 London Rd in Peterborough, open daily. The kitchen serves kebabs and burgers alongside the fish, so the menu spans seafood, shish kebab and fish burgers. Cod and chips covers the traditional order, while shish kebab and chips gives a meat option to anyone who would rather skip fish. A group with mixed tastes can order across both sides of the menu in one visit. Cheesy chips, curry sauce, mushy peas and sausages round out the sides, and canned drinks are sold to go with the food.

Customer Review Summary
Fish and chips split reviewers, and the cod sits at the center of that divide. Several praise fresh, perfectly cooked fish and portions so large that one reviewer says a single large could feed two. Another calls the cod an excellent size and tasty. Close behind, the shish kebab and chips earn praise for spot on meat and crispy chips, and one reviewer calls the curry sauce the secret MVP. The complaints are just as specific. Others describe cod that was mostly soggy batter with barely any fish inside, doubt it was cod at all, and report chips that were soggy, bland, cold or undercooked. The cheesy chips were called disgusting, with plasticky pre-grated cheese, and a fish burger arrived as a fish cake in a bun. One reviewer reports raw sausages and pink meat served to a child, and another says the person serving handled food and the till without washing hands. Several praise friendly staff, and one describes being fetched a cold can of Dr Pepper when none could be found.

“Just picked up from them and my chips are undercooked. First time trying them because I had the branch in Ely and loved it. This one was underwhelming because my chips are hard and as mentioned undercooked. The fish is nice tho, I got the cod.”

“Ordered cod and chips and cheesy chips . Cod was excellent size and tasty according to my wife and chops were OK My cheesy chips was to put it in plain English absolutely disgusting . The cheese was inedible and actually made me feel sick. Some sort of pre grated cheap plasticky cheese that was horrible and inedible . Sorry never again”

“Really disappointed by the food. The chips were soggy and bland. The cod was 70% soggy batter, it looks like you’re getting a nice piece of fish but there’s barely any fish inside. I also don’t believe we were given Cod. Overall the food was horrid and went in the bin”
