Catered a work do with several hundred attendees, most of whom queued for Blue Marlin. The team produced excellent quality fish and chips in sweltering heat. Fantastic!
Love this Chippy quality fish and chips & the curry sauce is definitely a great shout. Many chip shops these days serve you ‘half a fish’ per se. But here Blue Marlin you’re getting a great fresh tasting fish wrapped in tastes batter. Can not even think of a genuine negative to write about - 100% great fish and chips experience 100% give them a go!!
Really enjoyed our food from here. All cooked fresh, and tasted fabulous. Will definitely be back.
New Owners!!! Ben and family are super welcoming and the food is really good. The mushy peas are delicious but the service is better. A must fry (try) excuss the pun!
Went in on Tuesday 18th March 2025 at 7pm. Ordered 2 fish, 1 chips, peas and a scallop. The fish was fresh as it got fried when we went in. Chips were delicious and the scallops were also quality. One of the best fish shops around.
