Marino's Fish Wincheap - Canterbury

We had medium cod and a large chips to eat out of boxes in the park. The fish was rather small but the quality was excellent thick and white and perfectly cooked with light thin batter and the chips were excellent too. The previous customers before us had large cod and they were HUGE so next time I will order one large fish to share.

Two of the tiniest pieces of cod you’ve ever seen and a few chips. Didn’t even taste nice, soggy! Expensive too!

When I visited this restaurant, the first thing I noticed was the small portion sizes. They were much smaller compared to other fish and chip shops that charge the same price. Unfortunately, the food was not enjoyable. The chips were not good quality, as they tasted like they were cooked in old oil. The amount of fish served was minimal, and it seemed like there was more batter than actual fish. After scraping off the batter, I found only a small piece of fish that did not taste like cod. I suspect it was actually basa fish, but I cannot confirm this. Overall, the meal was inedible and disappointing.

Thought we’d treat ourselves to fish and chips and were extremely disappointed, not the first time. Friendly ish staff but the fish sizes are tiny for what you pay. Small cod I was expecting small but literally skin in a tiny bit of batter. Regular chips also very small and neither piping hot even when eaten immediately. Last time we ate here we also both had an upset stomach. This is our local chippy but won’t go back and waste our money again. Disappointing.

For a fish and chip shop I was astonished to be served dry cold shrivelled chips at a lunch time they where so bad I had to bin them and went down the road to deep blue and there I was served fresh hot chips although deep blue portions are smaller they actually taste nice
