It's a minute or two longer if a wait but they don't refry but made freshly upon order. Their price pp is about a pound or so lower than most places but quality is a notch higher. Another amazing found in my venture in UK this winter.

It was about 2pm and they cooked the chips & cod fresh for me - which meant a wait of a few mins - but when the food arrived it was excellent, not greasy at all - just hot & well cooked. The curry sauce was nice and spicy, a little runny, but dunking the chips in got a good coating. I would highly recommend this place & should I find myself in Winchester again I would for sure eat here again.

For someone who has been visiting the original Loch Fyne Oyster Bar for years and is a huge fan of…read morethe place, it's inevitable that any of their offspring branches are going to be held up against that benchmark standard for comparison Happily, this Winchester branch did not disappoint. The entrance looks more like an old-fashioned English pub, with its half-timbered façade and bar area; it could easily be mistaken for a Wetherspoons or something. It's once you get further inside that the full cunningness of this conversion becomes clear. Just around the corner is the fish counter, all tiles and ice, where you can pick your poisson of choice and even buy some to take home with you. Beyond that, the rear is a much more spacious affair, arranged around a central courtyard with a long wing stretching farther back that can accommodate larger groups. The meal quality was exceptional, as was the service from the friendly and courteous staff. I had crabcakes to start, which were not terribly large but were very tasty; and followed that up with an artichoke and mushroom risotto - for once, I decided not to go with the fish! I adore artichoke and it seemed too good an opportunity to pass up. My question about dairy content was quickly answered after the waitress went to check with the chef, and it was served without the usual parmesan slices topping. I was tempted to try the sorbet for dessert, but a last-minute resurgence of willpower prevailed, so it turned out to be a very reasonable pre-theatre meal. Excellent value for money, excellent food, great ambience, great service. Love it!

I love the centrepiece being a display of fantastic fresh seafood and the open kitchen. A nice touch that our waiter gave us a little tour of the fresh fish on offer One of my must order dishes is a good French fish soup, which should be thick and packed full of crustacean and piscine flavour. The version here came with the traditional grated Gruyere cheese and a slightly less traditional and slightly odd crouton, which had been topped with salt cod brandade. I liked their attempt to do something different but I wished the crouton was more crispy The pea risotto starter tasted a lot better than it looked when it first arrived - reminiscent of the flavours of spring For mains, I had the best dish of the day - a top class seafood tagliatelle. All the seafood was perfectly cooked, not an easy feat with the different elements needing different lengths of cooking. The pasta was silky and there was just the right amount of seafood flavour Strangely, the only dish to disappoint was the fish and chips. It was just OK though ,y girlfriend mused later that perhaps, she should have gone for tempura batter rather than traditional batter A solid choice for food in Winchester

We got there a few hours before closing time and couldn't get a table right away - we were told to come back in an hour but we asked if it would still be possible to get their fish & chips.

The chips were tasty and the mushy peas were actually good which I wasn't expecting! I'd travel all the way back to England just for this meal at the Scallop Shell.
