Borstal Fish Bar

Borstal Fish Bar is a neighbourhood chippy in Borstal, the residential area south of Rochester's town centre. The name comes from the old village that predates the twentieth-century expansion of the city, now associated with the young-offender institutions that gave their name to the English language. The menu extends well beyond cod and chips into kebabs, peri-peri burgers, pies, and pastries, making it more of an all-day snack and supper destination than a pure fish shop. Saveloys, haddock, and southern-fried chicken feature alongside kebab wraps and salads. Portion sizes are honest and the range caters to families as well as single diners seeking a quick evening meal. The kitchen serves both collection and delivery across the local area.
