Oceana Fish Bar

Oceana Fish Bar is a versatile takeaway in Smethwick that stretches well beyond the usual chip shop remit, pairing battered fish and chunky chips with a full pizza, kebab and curry-leaning menu. Alongside the fryer favourites you will find pizzas, doners, peri options and even a sprinkling of Indian-style dishes such as Chicken Tikka and Fish Masala, giving indecisive groups plenty to argue over. The fish in particular draws praise for arriving freshly cooked and properly crisp.

The shop holds a top Food Hygiene Rating of five, reassuring anyone keeping an eye on the kitchen, and carries a 3.7/5 score from more than 250 reviews. Regulars highlight the consistency of the cooking and the freshness of the ingredients, while the broad menu makes it an easy choice when one person wants fish and chips and another is after a pizza or kebab. Handy for the surrounding Smethwick and Bearwood streets, it remains a steady local stand-by for collection and delivery alike.
