Quick info
About Meriden Fish Bar & Charcoal Grill
Meriden Fish Bar & Charcoal Grill is a takeout fish and chips shop on York Way in Watford, serving meals for collection only with no seating on site. The counter covers the classic fish bar range, from battered cod and sausage, chips and a coke meals to lamb and chicken shish from the charcoal grill. Orders are placed at the counter and paid for in cash, and walk-in is the format throughout the day. The kitchen also turns out kebab shop staples alongside the fried and grilled options. Past orders have included a sausage, chips and a coke meal for around £9 and a wrap for around £10. Opening hours are posted online but have not always matched the actual times on a Sunday, so checking ahead is sensible.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers mostly complain about the chips, describing them as old and warmed up, with one saying it has happened before. One reports lamb and chicken shish that was mostly fat, with salty, overcooked rice, and another says the food was not cooked. Others call a wrap and sausage chips poor value. Two reviewers praise friendly staff and tasty portions.
