John's Fish Bar

John's Fish Bar is a long-standing chippy in the centre of Hailsham, the sort of place that has built its reputation one crisp, golden fillet at a time. It holds a Google rating of 4.4 out of 5, with customers returning again and again for fish that is fresh and properly cooked in a light, crunchy batter, and chips that manage to be crisp outside and fluffy within. Portions are famously generous, and plenty of regulars happily declare it the best fish supper for miles around.

The signature order is the Haddock and Chips, though the wider menu covers all the traditional seaside favourites you would hope to see. Helpfully, gluten-free options are available too, so more diners can join in. Whether you collect on the walk home or have it delivered across the Hailsham area, you can expect friendly service and that unmistakable, comforting smell of a proper British chip shop doing exactly what it does best, evening after evening.
