Smileys Plaice in Bristol, City of

I came to eat here with my friend. We are French and we highly recommend this restaurant 😎😎

The food was fresh and arrived hot, would recommend them

Delicious food and freshly made. Highly recommend!

Disappointed chups were nice but fish and nuggets over cooked and rock hard and curry sauce u could cut with a knife

Excellent fish and chips, with delicious tartare sauce. Very reasonably priced and extremely friendly/caring staff. I’ll be back!

The chips are little bits and very thin in fact rubbish an cold the fish was over cooked batter very scrunched up all landed up in bin won’t order from them again

Good portion size, quality fish and chips

Best fish and chips i have had in a long time

Delicious, freshly prepared food, with generous portions. Excellent

Not up to the usual standard tonight. Limp, barely warm chips and dry fish. Not what we expect from Anchor, makes me wonder if it’s the main cook’s night off

Absolutely fantastic food, crispy batter, fresh chips, and you can taste that the batter is clean. 👌👍

We have been using this Fish & Chips for many years when it was The Sea Pearl and it was always delicious food. So pleased that Anchor has kept the high standards of tasty fish & Chips. Great value, you will be impressed!!!

Got a delivery ordered curry sauce and chips the whole pot of curry sauce has been spilt all over my food I’ve tried calling you can’t get through to anyone this is ridiculous you try getting a refund and it says your not allowed one it’s awful how you can’t even contact them

The food is good, but the two-seater tables wobble.

Very nice food went down a treat, recommend place

Beautifully freshly cooked fish. Chips could have been a bit crisper, but overall very good. Good value for money.

Lovely food. Fast delivery. Thank you.

good quality chips and the fish was lush and the free curry sauce wasn't half bad either.

has to be the best fish and chips in Bristol

Only comment would be the curry sauce was very thin and no taste to it.

excellent food - well cooked and arrived very hot

The most delicious fish and chips I've had in 25 years. Amazing customer service. Highly recommended.

order was missing two VITAL portions of curry sauce, unlikely to order again :(

everything was cold, the fish was really small and not much to it. very disappointed 😞

Really enjoyed fish and chips, batter was not thick and greasy like some I have tasted will definitely buy again

Chips were bangin’ best we’ve had

I don't know if they've changed hands recently but the quality of the food has gone down. The chips used to be gorgeous, fluffy and crispy but now these were thin and shrivelled. The cheesecake looked nothing like the picture. There was no biscuit base, it was just a blob of slightly frozen mush. The delivery was the best thing about this experience.

Was adequate but I feel the fish and batter could have been a little more tastier

Not as good as the last one, 1 piece of the fish was under cooked, it was wet from the batter as it was not cooked in a big piece of it, I could taste the batter, chips 😋 perfect

Absolutely Delicious 😋, it was so nice to get proper chips 🍟 😋, fish 🐟 was not greasy at all. Shame that it was a bit cold, I will buy from you again

peas were not nice at all horrible after taste. fish was lovely chips were dry

Really good hot food but I’ve never seen such a tiny piece of cod! It was literally just a bit bigger than the battered sausage. Shame really as it would have had 5 stars as the food was really nice.

Fish was lovely chips were a bit dry

We brought our cub pack here on a 'Chip crawl' (practicing ordering and other life skills!) and the chips and service were absolutely fantastic! Our lot rated the chips in the high 90s across the board with special mentions for fluffiness and crispiness. Brilliant!

this place is always great! food is speedy, fish is so fresh! very nice thick chips too :)

Great quality fish ruined by terrible batter - chips are middle of the road but the mushy peas are tasteless.

I ordered here quite late so appreciated them for being open still - ordered fish & chips with a bread roll. I called to order only had to wait a couple of minutes once I arrived. Food was cooked fresh and the guy serving was really friendly and also gave me a pot of their tartare sauce which was so nice of him. The food was good quality, not 'traditional' fish and chips in my opinion but still tasted nice and made fresh to order. chips were perfectly cooked and the tartare sauce was actually really nice. they use seeded burger buns for the bread rolls which was fine by me but slightly different to other chip shops using 'butty' style rolls, £10.90 for everything which is decent. Definitely worth a try, they use fresh oil/ingredients and are fairly priced - Would recommend.

Chips were fresh and hot and the chicken and mushroom pie was really hot and tasty. Will definitely order from here again. Big thanks to the shop and staff

Everything I ordered was over cooked.

For portion size, it wasn't worth the price but it tasted ok below average I don't think I'll be ordering from here again

All food really fresh. Generous portions and speedy delivery. Delicious, light, crispy batter on the Cod. 10/10.

Batter was burnt on the fish and tasted horrible the chips were this afternoons and reheated and the menu shows a nice piece of lemon with the fish and when it arrived no lemon we bought 2 pieces of and they were both in the same box so they were stuck together I will never use this chip shop again and I've already posted on fb with the pictures of what arrived

excellent quality, delivered hot and early

3.5 hours late, not the takeaways fault, food was superb,

They came back with new management. Achieved to service gergpus fresh fish and chips.

Food is good but I feel it is little expensive.

Fish was of good quality and the chips was also freshly cooked. Service was good.

Really friendly service and the great food you can always count on from Pizza Express today.

Half my order was missing and when I rang up to try resolve I was hung up on

Was closed when we arrived for lunch.

Some very nice fish and chips with good service.

The best breakfast in the area. Highly recommended.

Had worse, but could've been better quite easily. It was only fish n chips ffs. Pricey. £1.60 for a can of coke!

Very good fish and chips at a fair prices

Very delicious breakfast and friendly staff. Good luck with your new business guys. Highly recommended.

Ordered simple dishes, 1 cod and chips and 2 battered sausage and chips. It turns up with no sausage at all. I tried calling, the guy answered, as I said we were missing the items he put the phone down and turned the phone off (was at 9:23). Will never use these again. Waste of time.

Can't believe how this drop service and quality so badly... doesn't worthy the review!!!

The food is very tasty. Nice and clean. Helpful staff. Choice is good with vegan and vegetarian options. Next I believe that the ordering was quick and simple. Me and my wife have 2 kids and so ordering is usually quite complex and usually takes a while, but here there was a lot of thing to choose from which made things easy and my daughter ( who is quite the picky eater), ate a battered cod and chips and she ate it all. The tarter sauce was homemade and very smooth and tasty, plus they are very generous with the salt and vinegar.

Lovely light battered cod and great crispy chips delicious

Atrocious. This place has seriously gone down hill.

their food is greasy and soggy. i ordered from just eat and got 1 regular cod and chips. after 5 mins of eating i was violently sick because of their food. QUALITY IS CLEARLY RUBBISH! AVOID THIS CHIP SHOP

Fish and chips were very nice.Big portion and good value. Mine was a take away.Friendly staff.

It makes me sad to rate this place one star because it's our local chippy. We'd had some bad experiences but thought why not.. third time (not so) lucky. Used their website for online pickup, requested no salt and vinegar as the last lot we ordered had SO MUCH salt to the point we couldn't really eat them. Unfortunately, the chips had loads of salt and vinegar on. Also ordered a burger and chips with a separate portion of chips.. almost six pound in total and just got one very small portion of chips that we had to split. Won't be going back a fourth time, really disappointing for the price.

Very expensive there £8.50 for medium fish and chips £2.10 for Oasis 250 ml food not cooked well as well

Used to be excellent, now the last 3 orders have been very disappointing, fish was ok, chips on each occasion average, be warned our last two orders of fish cake and chips didn’t include fish cake, we only got chips, reported on just eat site, refund but no contact or apology ! Avoid 👎

A great place nice food and great staff

Very tasty food Friendly staff Cosy restaurant.

Thank you guys. I've been here few times very happy with food and service. Friendly staff.

Awful. Absolutely Greasy chips and fish smells really bad and soggy.Visit this evening. Had cod and haddock. I vomited straight after eating and my 5 year old already vomited twice. Something seriously wrong with their food. We was in Resturant for 45 mins. Only saw a deliveroo rider came to pick up 1 order. Apart from that no one came. I think local ppl have better idea that’s why thy aren’t busy.

Awful. Only got half of our order. We ordered two large chips and two mushy peas. Got one of each. Phoned up and they said it wasn’t their fault and eventually just hung up on me. Will never go here again and will advise others not to.

Best ever fish and chips and battered halloumi 😍but recently the website has not been working and its a great shame :(

Ordered fish and chips and chips were cold and fish was raw in middle disgusting what they serves

Very well made fish and chips, with an excellent Italian coffee and friendly service.

Awful, do not bother. Fish was mushy, cold and tasteless, curry sauce was gloopy, mushy peas were hard and dry.

Food is good but the collection arrangement is appalling. Ordered online and was told it would be ready at 630 (30 minutes post order). Turned up to be told its not even been cooked yet and had to wait another 25 minutes (almost an hour after irdering). Why have a collection time!!?

The fish and chip is not the best cause I order haddock and chip which I expect you buy it together but you don't you have to buy it separately which it not good also I haven't talk about the food the chip and mixed with the old crisps chip with the fresh chip which is not nice and the last of all the haddock which I gotten had 2 bone inside it while I was eating it so be careful while eating your fish for bone

fish and chips, without the chips. cheers guys

Good and perfect food ,yesterday I tried it .I recommended it to all friends

Best fish and chips in town. The manager was so helpful and gave me a lot of extras. Keep up the good service

What a hidden gem! Had not heard of this place, previously always going to Argus Fish Bar or Salt and Malt - and this place tops them both! Fish was tender and flaky, and every single chip was perfectly crunchy on the outside, and fluffy inside, we'll definitely be back!

Only chip shop open on a Sunday in the area. You'd think they'd capitalise on this by offering outstanding food and accompanying service. But they don't. Popped in for some chips for the family, only to return home to find one of our boxes absolutely drenched in salt - I'm not dramatic about some 9verly salty chips, these had had half a tub dropped on them (see attached photos). I called to inform and complain - the response from the server was "oh, yeah. I thought I'd scraped most of that off. If you come back we can do you a new box"...and that was it. After reluctantly (albeit left with little choice) driving 10 mins back to the Sea Pearl, and presenting the server with the salty evidence. I was offered the same resolution of "chips or nuffin", the manager upstairs couldn't even be bothered to come and talk to me themselves, despite any refund/replacement/resolution needing to be approved by them. I was told, ultimately that it was "chips or nuffin" again and again, and that I was lucky it was even that and that most places wouldn't offer anything. Which I find hard to believe if another chip shop had poured half a kilo of salt all over someone's food. Honestly, mistakes happen, absolutely. But the level of service (or lack thereof) that I've experienced with Sea Pearl this evening will mean that they've lost a customer tonight. In this time where small independent businesses are undoubtedly recovering from a turbulent 18 months or so, you'd think they'd be a little more appreciative of their customers. Shame.

Absolutely superb. Best in Bedminster. Great staff, great food.🥰

Good chips. Fish needs to stand more so it's not soggy on the bottom..

Great service, the fish was cooked to perfection. The staff where ever so friendly. Will definitely be returning.

At Sea Pearl the food was very nice - freshly prepared & great service by Staff & A warm friendly welcome when we entered. Atmosphere very nice & relaxed & clean - they constantly making sure you are Happy & food is fine & if we wonted anything else. Food we had were Seafood Bowl & Salt & Pepper Chicken - chips & the homemade tartar sauce which was so nice. We will return for other visits to Sea Pearl Bristol- Fish -n-chip shop. Keep up the good Service with nice food & a nice atmosphere & nice polite staff .

This place has been one of my latest discoveries in West St. From the outside maybe it doesn't seem so pretty but inside the atmosphere is different, perfect to spend a lunch alone or with your family, they have a wide range of dishes for a very good price.

I love these restaurant. The food is delicious, beautifully presented, large portions. Cheap. Service, very friendly team, very nice people. We were also delighted with the interior of this restaurant. Cool, sea atmosphere. We also sincerely recommend "Sea Pearl" on Bedminster. By the way, the fish that is served is wonderful.Thank you g Polish family

Gorgeous fish and chips, and the vanilla cheesecake was amazing! 5 star service, thank you so much! Highly recommend

So happy this is my new local - super fish & chips, super easy to order from the website for collection and the staff was so lovely and helpful. Will definitely order again!

Lovely, freshly cooked fish and chips. A friendly atmosphere in old Bedminster.

Very good chips with generous portion sizes.

Excellent fish n chippy one of the best in Bristol!!

This restaurant has continuously missed items from orders and when contacted for assistance just say to call Uber eats and offer no support or apologies for mistakes made by them. Uber eats is an awful service who don’t offer any customer support and when you get through to someone on the app, they reply with a standard copied and paste message. A service should provide what you’ve ordered and when the full order isn’t delivered, the restaurant should refund.

Best Fish and chips and they are really fast!

First time buying from sea Pearl wow so impressed with the food really enjoyed it will be buying there again

Great fish and chip shop, excellent food, freshly ground coffee beans. The staff are friendly and helpful. I especially love how crunchy their chips are, and I recommend their gravy, its really good.

Excellent to ser this place open for inside dining again. The cleaning methods used by staff are good but would like to see waiting staff wearing masks personally. Fish and chips excellent as before, sad to hear customers haf received delayed and cold fiood but obviously not resturants fault, always had hot food myself over the years. Happy to hear their menu going to extend even further soon, look forward to that.

Easily the best chip shop chips out there, crispy and fluffy, some great veggie options and friendly service. Would highly recommend!

Missing items again second time 4 battered sausages missing - owner has terrible attitude saying don’t order through Uber eats . Then he’ll bring up missing items - never received them and no refund - disgusting place will not order from here again - wish I could give no starts NEVER SENT MISSING ITEMS - ALTHOUGH THEY STATE BELOW THEY DID ! This has happened twice two separate occasions- THE ATTITUDE ON THE PHONE WAS AGGRESSIVE- we rang twice last night and nothing was sent total lies on owners reply trying to make himself sound better nothing was sent to reply 4 battered sausages

Chips are amazing. Will definitely visit again 👍
