About Watchet Fish and Chips
Watchet Fish and Chips is a fish and chips takeaway at 48 Liddymore Rd in Watchet. Pea fritters are on the menu next to the fish, which is fried in front of you, and food is cooked to order. The fish comes as cod or haddock, with a small haddock size, and arrives with thick-cut chips. Chinese curry with chips is also on the menu for anyone after something other than fish. Orders go through the takeaway counter, and the shop works mainly as a takeaway.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the fish, with cod and haddock both praised as freshly fried, cooked to order and flaky inside a light batter. Close behind are the thick chips, described as brown and tasty, and the pea fritters, which several mention as a rare treat in a chippy, though one found them sold out and had the mushy peas instead. Others also name the Chinese curry, breaded mushrooms, a veggie burger, a jumbo sausage and a chicken pie. Staff are called friendly and helpful, and some mention generous portions and fair prices. The main complaint is one reviewer's report of a small, broken fish in three pieces, a sausage filled with mush and chips made up mostly of tiny bits. Another found the chips not crisp by the time they got them home. One visitor who found the fish sold out of pea fritters still called the small haddock very sweet and beautifully cooked.

“We got chips and Chinese curry. The Chinese curry was the Absolute BEST we've ever had from ANYWHERE!!! Chips were crispy and not soggy at all. Highly recommended 👌 we would be back but unfortunately we live in Manchester! Will defo be back if we are ever back down that neck of the woods”

“I am from out of town and staying down the road at a holiday park I look up takeaways near by and found this place I had chips and breaded mushrooms which was very nice the wife had a veggie burger and jumbo sausage when she really likes which is saying something because she is a fussy eater definitely going to come back again in the week”

“If there were a global championship for fish and chips, Watchet Fish and Chips would be lifting the trophy without breaking a sweat. This place serves up pure, golden, deep-fried bliss, the kind that crackles when you bite in and makes you pause for a second just to appreciate what’s happening. The fish is perfectly cooked, flaky and tender inside a crisp, light batter, while the chips are exactly how they should be: thick, fluffy on the inside, and just the right amount of crunch on the outside. Portions are gloriously generous, the kind that make you wonder if you accidentally ordered for two. Every bite feels like it’s been done right, no shortcuts, no compromises. Easily some of the best fish and chips I’ve had anywhere in the world.”

“I've used this chippie often, and never been disappointed. Today was exceptional. I had looked in maps to check opening times today. Open at lunchtime, ideal. I also noticed a very favourable review mentioning pea fritters. My only disappointment was they had sold out of pea fritters. So I had the mushy peas which were delicious. But. The star was the fish. I ordered a small haddock. It was a lovely piece of fish. Beautifully cooked, very sweet. I don't think it could have been better. The chips were ok. Not crisp by the time I got home to eat them. But overall an absolutely lovely meal. Thank you.”
