Dietary restrictions: Scampi not cooked and chips reheated

Disgusting service! Left us standing there from 6.30 till 6.50 so they could tell us that they close at 7 and that we where too late. Absolute joke of a place

I ate an excellent classic fish and chips, the frying was light although a little too greasy but still good, even the fries had a nice golden colour. I liked the fried prawns in batter a little less, you are served quite quickly and the staff is friendly, mostly young people.
Excellent I can recommend to taste the classic British cuisine.

Service was very friendly. We had the regular haddock with tartare and mushy peas. £15+.
The price is high for so much competition around.
With the menu claiming that the fish is fried to order we did not enjoy why the food came out luke warm, both fish and chips.
This was not enjoyable.
We enjoyed the batter and taste of the fish although bordering onto cold.
The chips were just the right amount for regular size.
Their quality was good too.
So for the price so far it was going well.
The tartare sauce like others said was very good and recommended but it comes as standard anyways.
We would eat here again if we were feeling flush. Being new to Brighton we had to try it once at least.
We would this time send the food back if it wasn?t hot.

The explanation was very kind and the fish and chips were delicious? It was a great restaurant to eat on the coast.

Even though the sit-down restaurant had many available tables, we were given a 40 minute wait for a table, so seems like staffing is an issue. We went to the take-away counter next door, and only one of the 5 mandatory use electronic ordering kiosks was functioning. However, about 10 minutes after ordering, our food appeared with malt vinegar and salt available for free (all other condiments are a separate fee and must be ordered in advance). Prices above average, fish was excellent , fries were good (not crunchy) and very large portion. No seating in the take-away area at all. Overall fine but wouldn't go out of my way to this particular place to be honest.

Had the Fish Afternoon Tea. Good selection to enjoy and the desserts were wonderful

We have been here a few times. I?m afraid to say after this visit we will probably not come again because although the service was good the food was not.
Gerkin for my wife not sliced so tricky to eat.
Gravy, although tasty, was in a very small container and had lots of lumps in it.
The chips looked and tasted awful. Very dark brown in colour, soft, floppy and had a strange taste. It was as if they had been cooked ages ago and kept warm.
Sausages in batter did not have a crispy batter coating.
The table was sticky and the floor was dirty. It needs a good clean. This was just after it opened, not later in the day.
I did not complain at the time because the staff were very busy. When we paid we were not asked if everything was ok.
Will probably look to find a smaller chip shop when we are next in Brighton.
Our local chippy in Fulham produces better quality chips, gravy and sausage for the same price.

We attended the restaurant this evening and had this been our first visit it would have been our last!
The attention to detail from the waitress was not at all to detail, they forgot the order before even leaving the table. We ordered cod and chips and in one of the meals found several large bones had this been at the begining of the meal I would have left it so grateful more towards the end. When we spoke to the waitress it was dismissed quickly and as if it was an inconvenience. They came across as not caring and very dismissive.
Such a shame as a previous visit was a completely different experience.

I recently visited Harry Ramsden?s in Brighton and left with mixed feelings. I ordered a large fish and chips meal via their app, which included tartar sauce and mushy peas. While the fish was nicely cooked and the chips were quite satisfying, the overall quality was underwhelming given the hype surrounding this iconic chippy.
The tartar sauce was a standout - rich in flavor and definitely the highlight of the meal. In contrast, the curry sauce was disappointingly bland, lacking any flavour. We also tried the fish burger, which turned out to be merely average, but the scampi was a pleasant surprise with generous portions and a satisfying taste. However, it did come with too many extra chips, which felt a bit excessive. Their Halloumi bites were delicious, even then they only brought a few pieces first and 15mins later they brought three more pieces. They seemed little disorganised.
Service-wise, the staff were courteous and helpful. We experienced a minor hiccup when our order was delayed - after 25 minutes, we were informed of a problem with their digital queues and told the food would arrive within the next 10 minutes. They delivered as promised, which was appreciated, though it didn?t fully make up for the other issues.
One final letdown was the cutlery. Initially, the set we received was dirty and covered with food marks. After asking for a replacement, the new set was similarly unclean until we requested a proper cleaning.
Despite the longstanding reputation of Harry Ramsden?s and the allure of their famous fish and chips, I found the meal to be overpriced for the average quality provided. I left feeling that my local chippy offers a far superior experience, and I?m unlikely to return in the future.

We tried afternoon tea fish and chips it was really delicious and it was enough for two people. Absolutely worth the price, the desert was really tasty. The service was great we asked for more mushed peas it was totally really good. Clean and the food was fresh.

Went for the afternoon tea which was very good. The member of staff Alfie was friendly and welcoming, would go again

Great food. Nice and friendly staff ... however, the room feels cold, and I have had that unconformable feeling of not being able to remove my jacket. So, despite food being great, it feels not cosy.
