Fish and chips were really nice, but paying was painful. Only accept cash, which I didn't have. I and another client went to the nearby cash machine, and it was broken, and we couldn't withdraw, so then I had to make a bank transfer. I won't go back until they don't put a card payment option.

One of the cheaper takeaways in Cambridge but portion sizes are massive - a half portion of chips is normally enough for two people as a side. Only had the fish, chips and fried chicken from though but always been great.

I worked in a fish and chip shop for several years and tasted some of the finest fish and chips. This is easily on par. The chips are crisp but velvety on the inside, the cod is crisp and moist. Battered sausages are excellent as are the kebabs and the portion sizes are generous. I've never had to wait too long for my food. Best of all the staff are attentive and friendly. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

We Internet searched a local chippy near the motorway for a halfway stop on our long journey home thinking, why not stop at a small business rather than a services for a change? We found this place - only a 6 min detour. We parked right outside, there were tables to sit in, the staff offered my girls little lollies without any prompts! We explained this was our stop off on a long journey, they were super friendly but not intrusive as we ate our chippy tea. The price was reasonable - cost us less than £20 for 4 of us (2 children though!) with drinks. When we needed vinegar, the guy over the counter heard and passed it immediately (table service in a chippy... whaaaa?!). The fish was delicious. As we left they all waved us off and wished us a safe journey. I mean, what more could you ask for?

The wife and I pass by here every night after work. We decided to stop off on Friday night (27th Oct) for some fish & chips. Our First time here. I placed my order, went to pay... "erm sorry"they said "we don't take card here - cash only" had to get cash from ATM end of the shops... (wish I never went back for my order TBH) Total crap. when we got home, supposed to had large Cod, was tiny size for a small child, this was slimey and undercooked, the chips were something else. I wondered if they see the fryer... they were unchewable, a solid mass. Was totally awful. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. We went to the CodFather week before over the lights, that wasn't much better grease wise. But at least was a good portion and was cooked... cod father 7out of 10, barracuda being generous 3 out of 10.. for trying... This Establishment comes across to me as 'Got All The Gear But Has No Idea?' .... I will drive further afield to Rumbles at Sutton at least they know how to cook and are a proper fisn n chip place and know their stuff, well worth the drive. This was my first time here at Barracuda Fish Bar in Fen Ditton, it will be my last too... !!!!!!!!!!!!

Very long opening hours makes this takeaway really convenient. Clean compared to many similar places. ThiS time tho my large cod was more like a regular piece of fish tho freshly cooked and tasted fine. The chips were unpalatable - chewy and hard work. Shame as I have visited a fair bit over the years for lunch.

Fish and chips will cost about £10-12 and portions are big. It's a proper chipshop, don't be put off by the counter filled with green stuff, that's to pad out kebabs that they also sell. Fish was decent and chips very well cooked, they also do scraps. Staff were friendly/helpful. Cash only but free cash machine less than 1 minute walk away.

Been using the Barracuda for my haddock and chips for some time. Fish is always excellent chips are how I like them cooked to perfection. Ordered over the phone and got a bit of a shock when I arrived to pay as their prices have risen. The cost of buying and cooking has has gone up but the quality is the same and will keep buying their produce as there is no where better in Cambridge.

Chips were nice but the cod was disgusting, obviously old as it stank and was dry and hard so had obviously been sitting around for a while after been cooked, really bad after spending £24 on 3 portions. Would have taken it all back to them If I didn’t need to go back off to work. Staff were friendly though just a big shame about the cod.

Genuinely the best fish and chips in Cambridge. The chips really are fantastic: real chunky potatoes freshly deep fried. I'm not someone who particularly like chips, but these are good. The only problem (not even really a problem) is the portion sizes are so big two people can legitimatly share a meal with no one going hungry.

This establishment is clean, and well presented, and all looks good until you taste the fish, which was dry, either over cooked, or had been cooked and kept hot for too long. The edge of the fish was as crisp as the batter, and the thicker part tough and dry, almost unedible.

I'd heard great things and wanted to try a portion of chips, but sadly they are NOT vegetarian friendly. The chips are fried in the same oil as the fish and as such are not suitable. I asked the employee at the time and he confirmed this. Such a shame! This is not mentioned anywhere so I'd hate for anyone not to be aware.
