Smart Fish Bar

Smart Fish Bar is a traditional chippy serving the Haverhill community with freshly fried fish and chips cooked to order. Alongside the classic battered offerings it also runs a kebab grill, so you can pair golden, crisp-battered fillets with doner or shish when the household can never quite agree on one cuisine. Portions are known to be generous and the food tends to arrive hot, which is exactly what you want from a proper seaside-style fish bar set well inland.

The menu leans on the dependable favourites, with a well-made Haddock and Chips and a satisfying Doner Kebab among the regular orders, plus the usual line-up of sausages, pies and battered sides. Reviews are broadly positive, with the bar rated 3.8 out of 5, and locals single out the friendly welcome and clean, tidy counter. It is a straightforward, good-value stop for a no-frills fried supper in the centre of town.
