Long John Hill Fish Bar in Norwich

Best fish and chips in Norwich 🤗

Food is wonderful, Fish is cooked to order so it has lovely crisp batter and is piping hot. Chips are so scrumpy I would love to know what potatoes they use. We also tried a seafood basket and battered Oreos both were excellent. Recommend this place to anyone..

Big portions food is always hot lovely staff everyone is nice

Fantastic service from a local fish and chip shop. Best fish and chips in town

Normally very good. But I tried something new last night and that was the mango n chilli prawns. They were were nice but were slightly undercooked. I’ve woke up this morning with all the symptoms of food poisoning and they were the only thing I had other than churros and chicken curry spring roll. I won’t be trying the prawns again. The churros I got were lovely as usually.

Food is normally very good but chips on this occasion were dry and dark in colour suspect oil was over used fish was ok but chips tasted dry and a little over cooked

Our normal go to fish and chip shop and always been good but tonight the chips were not good most of them went in the bin. Very brown and dry, tasted old., we did have to wait for some items to be cooked around 20 mins so maybe the chips were out to one side , hence why they went like that. The fish was very good.I will of course still use this chippy as like I say normally always good

This is my Friday chip shop of choice in Norwich. Go for their Irish curry to put a little spice into your lunch. Always freshly cooked and well worth journey. I can park my van with ease in the fast flowing car park.

Always go here once a week . I don't know what potatoes they use but the chips are so good 😋

We have long been fans of the Long John Hill Fish Bar one of the few restaurants that you can still get Rock fish on a regular basis! However tonight they surpassed themselves! I opened the website today to pre order our dinner for collection and found sea food baskets and whitebait options and once I had seen them well I had to have them and at a reasonable price! True to form the service was excellent and the staff had our selection ready at the right time and when we got home oh boy we were in for a treat! It was divine! Flavoursome, well cooked, fresh and so tasty. We were loyal customers before but now. Just WOW!

Best Fish & Chips around. Menu is varied and they have great specials. Would definitely recommend the homemade flapjacks! Food is cooked to order and you can taste the difference. Never very much of a wait and the staff are very friendly. Bluelight discount is a bonus too!

Food was and is always lovely but the system of cooking to order needs looking at. Literally just ordered sausage, fishcake and chips, nothing extra special, and the wait time was 32 minutes. The staff member just shrugged and said we were on the list, no apology, when I queried how much longer the wait would be. Having to wait outside in the December cold wasn't fun, as I said, lovely food but not worth the wait.

Small portion on my very expensive large cod,second time i have been short changed with the fish portions.Have given up now and go to another. Irish curry sauce is good though.. About it really.

Fish cake & fish is very tasty , n not to far from home 🙂 Loved it

We had cod&chips and it was absolutely delicious 😋 we also had battered sausages but we didn't like them as much.overall the service and speed was really good. They also allow blue light card holders to get their discount. We will definitely return.

Expensive and chips are the worst

Great plaice to go. Lovely food and flapjack was amazing. Staff polite and would go back. Buzzing system used for queuing was really impressive too

Great food and staff were really polite. Queuing system impressive too

Have visited a few times now since moving into the area, absolutely amazing chippy!! So many options, chips are always well fried with crispy outside and fluffy middle.

Haven't been myself but friends highly recommend 👍

Great food and a very clever cueing system!

Ordered online to pick up had to wait for a few minutes when I arrived but was worth it fish delicious and chips were lovely too also piping hot

Staff are so slow it’s unreal. Genuinely painful and infuriating to watch. Never seen so many 5 people behind a fryer turn out so little food. The food is good, but the slow service is going to stop me returning. I have been quite a few times and always the same. I’ve given up hoping they would speed up. Making people wait outside 15 mins just for some chips - every time!

Very nice food and well packaged With a friendly service too!

Someone needs to learn how to fry chips, seems like they are warmed up from night before, hard and not peeled, dreadful

We travelled from Liverpool this weeknd to visit family in Norwich, stopped off at this little gem of a place! I had the Chilli Mango Prawns, chips, curry and Peas..wow best take away food I've had! Prawns were full of flavour and the chips were proper chippy chips! Curry was delish as were the peas, my partner had the fish and that too was beautiful, very filling and the batter was crispy and fluffy! We also had a flapjack too, they are absolutely delightful! May have to visit family more often to visit this Fish and Chip Shop! Love the way its one way in and one way out! We didn't wait long for our food either on a Saturday evening about 6.30pm and the shop was busy! Great food, great packaging and great service! 👍

So been in this evening( Thursday ) ordered Cod chips one battered sausage and a bread roll, I waited outside for 25minutes for this order, which is not acceptable, I got home with my box opened it and guess what no bread roll, I Thought the young guy this evening who was bringing orders outside was very dismissive and unfriendly. I would certainly say it wasn’t overly busy so why take so long? Two other clients outside Was complaining about waiting so long, one of which actually said to young dismissive lad thanks for that but 30 minutes for cod&chips twice is not acceptable and also said thanks but I will not be back, There was another fella waiting for ten minutes to be asked if he ordered a jumbo fishfinder butty, he said yes I did, to be told sorry we’ve ran out of these so I can either refund you or you can order something else, he had already waited ten minutes to be told that. What on earth is going on in this chip shop?

Best chippy for me in Norwich, love the deals they do especially the Blue light card, lovely pieces of fish plenty of chips

Fab fish supper...crispy batter too ...yippeeee

Service was impeccable, however we waited over 15 minute for a promised ‘10 minutes’ and when we got home they had forgotten to put in the curry sauce and the chips and fish tasted greasy and unappetising. We’ve been getting fish and chips here for (probably) 40ish years so it was a real disappointment. Not sure what went wrong tonight, but hopefully it can be fixed.

Friendly staff, Portions are huge, Food is lovely, fresh and well cooked! Had a little wait but considering it's cooked fresh i dont mind, for those moaning about a 15 minute wait i dont understand- wherever you go you have to wait!? Even at home.. its cooked fresh what do you expect! They even offer to bring it to your car if you want to go sit in the car - which i politely declined as they had enough people in and out of the door i didnt mind waiting outside! flapjacks are so so nice although I had it today as i definitely couldn't fit it in after fish and chips! Will definitely return!!!!

A million years of great fish and chips.

I & my 9yr old Boxer have just thoroughly enjoyed our "Whale" meal.....Excellent quality food & service.... Many Thanks Ruth

My go to chip shop in Norwich. Online ordering advised to cut the waiting time during busy periods.

Probably the best fish and chip shop in Norwich. Polite staff, fresh food. The Irish curry sauce is great. Since the new owner took over a couple of years ago the food quality and service has improved so much. Don’t let other reviews about a wait time put you off. I’ve never had to wait too long. Fresh food isn’t instant but you can definitely taste a difference.

Fantastic food and service, the fish was amazing and desserts that are worth the extra time in the gym

Since the chip shop has had new owners the food has gone down hill considerably never have any fish cooked so there is always a very long wait for your order !!! batter is terrible over crispy and soggy underneath!!!! And it NEVER stays on the sausages The price you get charged for the awful food that is served is absurd, and the prices keep on rising!!!! I came in and placed a smallish order and had to wait around 20 odd minutes for the food to be cooked as there was none in the displays, I find this unacceptable on a Saturday night when they should know that they are going to be very busy on the weekend rant over will not be using this chip shop again !!!!! I do have the correct chip shop, thank you!!! I used to be a regular when the old owner was there, since he left the food has gone down hill!!!

Lovely food, love that the fish is cooked fresh to order. Flap jack were a nice surprise, definitely recommend the Kinda Bueno. Will be back soon, thank you.

My favourite chip shop. I ring the order in and by the time i get there and pay it is usually ready. Very helpful and efficient. Very clean and varied menu.Can also pay by card unlike some of the others !!

What a great place food fantastic you will have to wait but worth the wait

On holiday and fancied fish and chips from this fish bar. I was surprised how fast the food was done ready for take away. However the fish was very dry and clearly not cooked to order which was very disappointing. Shame.

Chips were delicious and loved the flapjacks.

Really nice chips and fish excellent service and great value

My word - the fish and chips were great! Lemon sole and chips! They double wrapped it all. Lovely people great price. 5m walk from Campsite

Great chips fair price clean amd friendly

Great fish and chips, only complaint was that the mushy peas came whole and had to mush them myself!

Really nice fish and chips , generous portions and some nice different items on the menu too

Fantastic service and the best fish & chip shop around for miles with very friendly staff thank you so much 😀

Just had cod bites and regular chips. The cod was delicious… moist white flesh and crispy batter and tasty chips. Good value too. It’s not my regular but was open on a Monday so decided to drive there. Will definitely go back again! Highly recommend

Best chippy in the area, Always have good deals on & great service.

Good sized servings but last few times the fish was so overcooked it wasn't very nice. We've started going there less.

Chips good. Fish good. Portion size good. Speed good. Chips good. Value for money good. Chips good.

Waited 30 mins in cold after ordering Mel 1cod 2sauages 1chips. No apology for wait . Obviously with all orders online plus walk in orders obviously can’t cope. If I hadn’t asked after 25 mins waiting I’m convinced I’d still been waiting for my meal.

Nicest chip shop in Norwich, always fresh and consistent!

The fish and chips are cooked to order. I ordered online. Large middle cod and chips. Amazingly fresh, like I would get when we visit Cornwall. They even bring it to your car. Very friendly staff and polite. I live in Poringland, and even though their are two fish and chip shops nearer to me. I always get mine from long John hill fish bar.

nice place always nice staff and nice food!

Very. Good chippy loads of menu choices. Excellent service always use this as it's near and handy.

Always lovely food, home made tar tar is a must from here. Travel from the other side of the city to go to this chip shop, best by far. Always tastes fresh, always hot, brilliant variety on the menu and good prices. Makes it easier you can pay by card and contactless. Staff are lovely.

I ordered food for myself and three friends from Long John Hill Fish Bar last Thursday night and it was really delicious... Highlights for me were the haddock and home made tartare sauce. Very high quality. Antonia

Absolutely first class fish and chips, our dog enjoyed her saveloy too.

Very nich food, There was quite a queue for the food here, so obviously a popular place with pkebmnty of staff to serve everyone. Waiting time was about what you would expect at a busy place.

Best chippy in Norwich. Excellent every time

Good food. Piping hot. Staff friendly. Good value.

We placed an order for 26 people for a work lunch, fantastic service, and the food was amazing, highly recommend.

Delicious chippy with really friendly staff. You must try the Irish Curry Sauce it's incredible!

I can only review this chip shop for the last four months, but as a lover of fish and chips, I would say this is the best in Norwich for consistent quality and service. The shop doesn’t look much but don’t let this put you off. I must have tried 75% of the shops in Norwich, award winning or not, this beats them all for consistency of quality. I give it my 5 star yummy award!!

Lovely food, not too expensive and very handy when camping down the road.

We had cod and chips and they were absolutely fantastic. The service was good, we didn’t have to wait too long

An order was made earlier today for a collection at 6.30. Unfortunately the order hadn't been completed so it was a long wait for our food. And apparently more expensive. In view of the error a discount should have been forthcoming. There were lots of people waiting for the food at 6.30. Hi the order wasn't in my name. Obviously I didn't have the wrong shop!! My colleague waited whilst the order was dealt with. Apparently the original order was not made up at all. She did make the order Tuesday morning and had messaged out group chat to let us know. I myself spoke to the manager on Saturday afternoon to let him know we were going to put an order in on Tuesday and was given the email address to do this. Really don't know why the order wasn't completed and ready.

A little bit of a wait for food, but worth it - you can't argue with the quality or value of this place. What looks like an unassuming local chip shop is putting out some of the best fish and chips around.

Amazing fish and chips, always go here when I'm in need of fish and chips in the city

Tasty food, lots to choose from and reasonable prices. Would recommend :)

Popped in for some sausage and chips. Very good service and very good value for money. Delicious sausage and chips.

Lovely Fish and chips , good portions , and very friendly staff .

Excellent plaice and chips, great value for money and would highly recommend. Will be returning, really good.

We travelled further and past 2 chip shops to this one as the fish is delicious and great sized portions 😊

Under new ownership and seems to be a lot better

Order online to be told a pick up time to then be made to stand outside 40 minutes past that given time to then be told they've sold my large haddock and only have cod... Fine. But I don't appreciate being told haddock is cheaper than cod.

Over all a nice fish and chip bar. Chips are always well cooked fish was nice however my partner ordered a large cod and it was mostly batter at one end with very little fish, not the norm even for a tail end. Most of the staff are pleasant but the lady who served me could have cracked a smile for every customer not just the regulars. Despite all of the above I would return.

Very good service and the chips are the best I have ever had

This in my opinion serves the best fish and chips in norwich chips taste excellent and soft and the large cod is really fresh and tasty.👍

Best fish and chips I’ve had in a while! Great chips, the Irish curry sauce is to die for! Much better quality than McDonalds. Only thing I would like to see improved would be the quality of pickled onions. Otherwise fantastic.

I was very impressed, clean fresh and bright. They operate a one way system take your order and you wait outside or in your car. They bring the order to you. Sanitisation station inside door and saw the staff cleaning their hands between orders. Well done guys, helping keep us all safe.

This is a really decent local chippie. They always seem well stocked, and the staff are professional enough to keep waiting time to a minimum even at the busiest times, and friendly enough so you always feel welcomed an valued. Prices are very reasonable, and portion sizes are generous.

£21 for two large fish and chips and 2 sausages!!! 😲. Waited neay 20 minutes, got home, opened the boxes and the "large" portions looked like "small" portions to me. Too expensive for portions.

Outstanding service/great staff friendly and polite

We had beef pie and a portion of chips ladies at 13.30 we very friendly and helpful. Meal was lovely

Food was ok, but after ordering the food and paying for it, young lad came out and said, there's no chicken burgers left, so got a beef burger instead, got home, and they forgot to put in the jumbo sausage with the chips, and only got 2 drinks instead of the 3 we paid for...other than that, never really had a problem with them, hopefully just a one off...

Had the cod bites and they were really chunky. None of the usual scrap ends rubbish. Kids loved them and so did I and I usually order a cod. Great little find by chance while in the area with the family

Fish and chips served in a box. Asked for plenty of salt and vinegar and got none. You go in and order then wait outside to recieve your food. Only found out in the car there was no S&V on them. So had to go back inside to be told help yourself. Now why couldn't they have said that at purchase.

Best chip shop around .always a good meal from here

Excellent service and lovely hot fresh fish and chips

Awesome dinner , chips are amazing. Deep fried Oreos were spectacular !

Had long John Fish bar tonight and have to say it was 10/10. Had the chicken burger with chips and the Irish curry sauce. Amazing. Great portion sizes. To top off had deep fried oreo. Definitely coming back.

Service is good, food comes in a nice box so it's clean to eat. Had sausage and chips and they were fine

Massive order for a community! Delivered on time, food was hot! All agreed the best fish and chips ever! Fish had mouth-watering crispy batter, lovely moist fish, wonderful chips! DELICIOUS!!!

Back again for stocktake lunch, 14 people this time. Collected with ease, all colleagues happy with quality and quantity. If you get a chance try the battered oreo's, wasn't sure but delicious.!!

Good size portions lovely food one of my favourite chippys

Very good. Excellently cooked food. Delivered to me in my car as it was raining.

With my job we travel around Norfolk quite a lot and have been rating chip shops. We both agreed 5 out of 10. Sorry
