I came to the Sleaford branch of Elite Fish and Chips and ordered Cod and chips and 1/2 portion of…read moreScampi and chips at 17.20 today on Saturday 6th Dec. As soon as I placed the order the person who served me took a piece of cod from the heated area, put it in a container with the chips and placed this item on top of the heated section. Following this she requested that the Scampi be cooked. Some time later, when the scampi was ready and served with chips, she took the cod and chips from the top of the counter and put it in a bag with the Scampi and chips/ When I got home the Cod and chips were cold and I could not eat it. According to your website all fish is cooked to order. The cod that I bought clearly was not. This is the first time that this has happened at your establishment. To say I am disappointed is an understatement. If this happens again I will stop using Elite.

This place looks great it was recently opened (the signage stated so) and it looks very clean…read more There are two sides to this business , the takeaway and a dine in restaurant. We were driving through Sleaford on the way home and came across this place and had a takeaway. Why only 3 stars that will become apparent........ The fish is freshly cooked for you so you have to order when you arrive to get things moving and cooked. This is good, it shows that they aren't going to serve fish that could have been hanging around. They had an offer on at this place which was kids eat free - excellent! The t&c's were you ordered an adult meal and the kids meal came free. I think this was an offer at this place as it has recently opened. I was asked if I wanted the fish separately from the chips; I thought this was a good idea as the fish can go soggy sitting in the chips sometimes. The items were placed in separate polystyrene containers and then wrapped in paper. This all helped in my opinion to not have soggy chips etc, so far do good ! We got home, which is about 12 minutes away. The fish was excellent and I really do mean that. We recently ate at the award winning fish and chip shop in Whitby, Yorks and they were very good and in personal opinion this fish was as good if not slightly better, it tasted very fresh and had good texture and a really good taste. The batter was not greasy and it was still crispy. Unfortunately there was a downside to the meal, the chips were slightly hard. The first few I had I would say were firm but after consulting the wife for her opinion it became apparent that they were hard and not really edible. This was a shame as they were not at all greasy, which I find is a problem with takeaway chips sometimes. We had gravy, curry sauce and peas; these were average. The best curry sauce I've had is from a F&C shop in Grantham and this stuff didn't touch that, there was nothing wrong with it but it was nothing special. Staff all looked clean and tidy, the chef in charge appeared to be running things efficiently (apart from the chip situation). I've given 3 stars as the chips were an integral part to the meal and they were a let down. I will eat at this place again and if the chip situation changes I will up the mark to 4 stars. It should have been 4 stars today!!!

The restaurant is underneath the main shop, but it feels cosy rather than basement-y, with white walls and plush blue velvet curtains. We had some french people stay with us once, and they really wanted to try proper fish and chips, so we brought them here. They weren't disappointed - who could be with light, crispy battered haddock and fluffy golden chips on offer, with proper mushy peas and gravy that tastes like it's been made for a roast dinner? Ommmm.

Some guy I've never seen behind the counter before helped us and he was in really good spirits. In fact it was nice to be entertained until our food was ready. I have to say, if I ordered the small fish and chips... I'm not sure what the regular size looks like! The small would've been enough for two people. I can finally say that I have had the fish and I will say that it is the best fish and chip shop in town! Oh and apparently they are a fully licensed restaurant.... if you would like a cocktail with your fish and chips!

In the center of town on high Street, I found this place. There's a small seating area inside, just big enough for a few (maybe four) people. Everyone in line was just getting food to go, so I joined the queue. I walked in, stood in line, and then made my order; "fish and chips, please". Fish and chips went in the fryer, and I started salivating at the thought of my first bite of authentic British fish and chips. When my order started to come up, I was quite confused. There is no way that much food was for a single order of fish and chips... but I was sadly mistaken. The portions here are absolutely gargantuan. Everything was fresh, piping hot, and delicious. I'm willing to book another trip back to England just so I could revisit this place!

A busy chippy on a Friday lunch time is a good sign, but the queues were almost out the door. Fishtastic's combined a traditional fish and chip shop (counter, typical menu range) with modern practices - cardboard boxes instead of waxed paper and sustainability info. On the wall is helpful screen showing where their current fish stock was sourced! I ordered Haddock out of habit as I prefer to have my fish cooked to order, but their Cod was sustainable too. The fish was cooked perfectly, chips were kept hot without going soggy (probably down to the box) and a can of Cream Soda washed it all down a treat. Fishtastic is a little out of my way, but for quality fish and chips like this I'll be coming back! Keep up the great work.

The food is second to none, prices are a little more expensive than other local shops but you pay for what you get. Only thing lacking is the service which can be a little slow at times but the food makes it worth the wait.
