Reviews Overview
Most Liked
The portions at Summerhaze Fish Bar receive rave reviews; many diners appreciate the generous servings of cod, which is cooked perfectly every time. The fish batter is notably light and crispy, enhancing the overall taste without being greasy. Customers also frequently mention the delicious curry sauce, which pairs excellently with the fish and can add a unique twist to the traditional meal.
The informal atmosphere strikes a chord with many, creating a sense of community as patrons often chat with staff and other diners. Friendly service is consistently noted, making each visit a welcoming experience. Many visitors agree that it's an ideal spot for a family meal, especially given its kid-friendly offerings. The convenient location near the beach adds to its appeal, making it an excellent stop for hungry beachgoers.
Most Disliked
Despite its many charms, Summerhaze Fish Bar does have a few drawbacks. Some patrons point out that it operates on a cash-only basis, which can inconvenience visitors not prepared for it or those who prefer card payments. Additionally, the limited parking space can be frustrating, especially during peak times when the restaurant is full, often leading to a hunt for nearby street parking.
Another point of contention is the outdoor seating, which, while enjoyable on nice days, can attract seagulls. Diners need to be cautious and mindful of their surroundings, as seagulls can swoop in unexpectedly. Occasionally, the long lines during busy hours might deter those in a hurry, but the quality of food usually makes the wait worthwhile.

Great fish and chippy. Perfect cod and chips with mushy peas. Smiley and friendly staff. Cash only though. A few picnic benches outside but beware of the seagulls. And about 8 parking spaces too.

Visit this place every October half term. The fish&chips are amazing. A very friendly and efficient lady who serves the orders. Always a massive queue but prepared to wait. See you again next year in June and October!

Visited the amazing beach and fancied a traditional seaside bite to eat ; chose Regular cod portion which was enormous and really fresh - not oily and the was batter light and crispy. Amazing fresh chips, and mushy peas perfect, as was the pickled egg and gherkins. Everything I ate was cooked in front of me there and then and ready within minutes - despite it being a busy lunchtime. Really nice lunch and thank you for the professional swift service. Highly recommend for COD AND CHIPS

We had fish and chips which were really good and a saveloy which was also very good. Quick service and the fish was cooked while I waited, so it was super fresh. Price was good as well large chips and medium fish with saveloy was £16 or there abouts.

Lovely succulent food served. Nice size portions for the portion size you've ordered. The staff are lovely, friendly and accommodating. There's sometimes a waiting time but I take into consideration the time of day as well as seasonal timings. We waited for about 15 mins so it wasn't too bad. The only (con) I have about this place is the fact it is cash only the closest 🏧 charges to withdraw so we found we had to drive elsewhere to get cash out. The sparking is scarce there due to the amount of customer attraction to this place. Overall, I love to have some food from here and will always happily drive here to get some fish and chips or something else.
