Looking for the best fish & chips in Cornwall
Whether you’re looking for fish and chips after a day on the beach, a relaxed family meal overlooking the harbour or a takeaway to enjoy by the water, Stein’s Fish & Chips serves freshly cooked Cornish fish and proper chips in the heart of Padstow. Every portion is cooked to order using sustainably sourced fish, crisp golden batter and our twice-cooked chips. Dine in and enjoy unlimited chips, or pre-order your takeaway online to collect at a time that suits you.
Fresh Cornish fish, cooked your way
Our menu celebrates Britain’s best-loved fish and chips alongside lesser-known Cornish species that deserve their moment in the spotlight. Choose your fish battered, grilled or gluten free, then finish it with tartare sauce, aioli or our Goan curry sauce, all made using Rick’s recipes. Beyond the classics you’ll also find favourites including our Singapore Chilli Crab Burger and seasonal seafood specials.
Dine in or takeaway
Whether you’re grabbing lunch before heading to the beach, picking up supper for the family or enjoying fish and chips by the harbour, we’ve made it easy. Pre-order online for collection, or take a seat in our restaurant where every meal comes with unlimited chips.
Rick’s perfect fish & chips
‘The heart of a British seafood restaurant should be great fish and chips. When done properly with excellent fish cooked in a crisp batter in beef dripping plus thick chips which have never been near a freezer, it is one of the greatest dishes of the world.’ – Rick
New for 2026: Takeaway Seating
When our restaurant is busy, or the weather gets in the way of harbourside dining plans, head next door to our dog-friendly takeaway dining area. Grab a seat and watch our fishmongers at work while you enjoy your meal.
From 10am, we also serve coffee and a small selection of pastries, a relaxed place for a quiet start to the day or a little pause while exploring Padstow.
