Swanscombe Fish Bar — Restaurant in Dartford

Have been using this fish and chips for several years, but haven’t visited for some time as my local one is in Stone. However I drive by every Saturday after going into Gravesend and decided to pop in, and what can I say - we are now hooked and come here rather than our local. The prices and portions speaks for itself, and the owner are very friendly. They are extremely busy but do not keep you hanging! Keep up the good work guys

Update review/ really shocked by the poor quality of my take away 2 weeks ago. The haddock batter was extremely over fried and the fish was so tough. Chips were nowhere near the same quality, and the scampi was poor to. We spent over £35 and literally threw most away. Disappointing as I have always recommended this place. I am unsure if this is under new management, I have never had a bad experience but on this occasion I was left unsatisfied and hungry. I have changed my review from 5 star to 4 star. Hoping things will improve but won’t be ordering a big take away until I have...

I also didn’t recognise the male behind the counter so maybe new owners? Defo won’t be visiting again unless I see my fav...

If gets a 2 because the large haddock was large and the flavour of the fish was nice. Also the staff are very warm and welcoming. However, the batter on the fish was hard and crunchy, like it had been cooked in old oil. The chips were some of the worst I've eaten ; hard like they'd been pulled out of a bin from the day before and refried, hard enough to scratch the roof of my mouth. I still devoured it as I hadn't eaten all day and had been hard at work, but now I feel like ive eaten from a bin. I usually use John's in Northfleet which are far superior, unfortunately they had...
