Millennium Fish Bar

Millennium Fish Bar sits on Church Street in Church Gresley, the village immediately south of Swadlincote town centre and tied to it as one continuous built-up area. It runs as a traditional fish-and-chip shop with a broader hot-food list — pizzas, kebabs and southern-fried chicken alongside the fish suppers — and is one of the longer-running chippies on this side of town.

Fish is cooked to order; the kitchen makes battered chips as a Sunday special rather than a daily fixture, which the regulars find unusual enough to mention in their write-ups. Beyond the fish-shop core the menu covers the usual jumbo sausages, pies, fishcakes and curry-sauce sundries. Ordering is collection or short-radius delivery into Church Gresley, Castle Gresley and the south Swadlincote estates.

The shop trades under two slightly different company names — New Millennium Fish Bar Ltd (the current company, registered 2018) and the older Millenium Fish Bar Limited — which reflects a change in ownership rather than a change of location. It runs as a phone-and-collect operation with outdoor seating and a curbside pickup option for collection orders.
