Stein’s fish and chips in Padstow, Cornwall

Nostalgia awaits at our fish and chip restaurant and takeaway by the quay in Padstow, Cornwall. Awaken memories of enjoying the very best fish and chips Cornwall has to offer on holiday by the coast – the crunch of freshly fried batter, lashings of vinegar on your chips and some decent sauces to dunk them into.

Our menu celebrates the nation’s favourites alongside other Cornish species we think deserve the spotlight. With everything cooked to order and available battered, including gluten free, or grilled, you can look forward to fish and chips done in the best way possible in Padstow. Beyond the classics, our menu features unique dishes like the Singapore Chilli Crab Burger, soft-shell crab in tempura batter with a spicy kick. Complement your meal with homemade sauces, including tartare, aioli and Goan curry, all made by our team, using Rick’s recipes and fresh Cornish ingredients.

‘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.’

Unlimited Chips

Our chips begin their journey in the rolling fields of the Tamar Valley, just an hour away. Grown on a family-run farm, in rich, fertile soil, giving the perfect balance of fluffiness inside and crispness when cooked. Once in our kitchen, they’re fried in traditional beef dripping, giving them that deep flavour and irresistible crunch.

You can’t beat a proper chippy chip and if you’re dining in, you’ll enjoy unlimited helpings.
