Upton Fish Shop - West Lindsey

If you want a truly authentic old style chip shop taste then this is the place for you! Fish and chips as they used to be! Not the cardboard batter and pre cut chips of so many chippies these days. Well worth queuing up for!

Ignore the negative comments. This is a banging chippy. Amazing fish, chips and peas. You will see as you read, people complaining about their second visit. Obviously it can't be that bad if they have gone back. Fools.

Magnifico, all my friends told me to visit and I was not disappointed. The fish and chips were excellent. One tip get there early, you can be queuing for a while.

After hearing many good reports me and my family decided to visit upton fish and chips on the 21/7/2023. After arriving at 5.30pm there was already a substantial queue from I could see, luckily I found a space on the roadside. Me and my mother joined the queue, there was about 10 people in front of us, I was only too grateful that the weather was nice, I wouldn’t have fancied queuing in bad weather, we gradually got nearer to the front of the queue, after about 35 mins we had made it to the front, but then just had to wait an extra 10 minutes as the regular size fish wasn’t quite cooked, the smells were making me hungry, the chip shop itself is only big enough for two people it was quaint and quirky very retro looking, the staff that served us were pleasant we ordered the regular fish &chips a mushy peas and a curry sauce we paid and left to eat the long for fish and chips in the car I have to say they were lovely, everyone agreed, so worth the 45 minute wait, the only think that stopped me giving 5/5 was the curry sauce, I’m so glad I didn’t pour it over my meal or it would have really ruined it for me I know it was hand made to their recipe, but it wasn’t what I expected by any means it was so HOT, it wasn’t the nice chip shop curry I was expecting, it was really hot like an Indian curry, my mouth was tingling the other members of the family tried it and they all said it was too hot and overpowering, I definitely wouldn’t buy the curry sauce again, other than that the fish was battered nicely, it was crisp and the chips were new potatoes I’m pleased to say I’ve tried them, and would definitely go again

Really tasty haddock and chips. You can definitely tell the fish is fresh and not frozen. The batter was lovely. We waited around 30 minutes to be served, which we didn't mind as the food was freshly cooked. Pleasant staff and entertaining conversation in the queue!
