Details

Crispy batter crackles with every bite at Atlantic Fish Bar on Abingdon Road, a long-standing Oxford favourite for a truly traditional taste of fish and chips. They serve generous portions of freshly prepared cod and haddock, alongside perfectly cooked chips that have earned praise from locals and visitors alike. Beyond the classics, the menu also features a variety of other chippy staples, including pies, sausages, and chicken, ensuring there's something to satisfy every craving. You can expect a welcoming atmosphere and friendly service at this family-run establishment, making it an ideal stop for a quick and satisfying takeaway meal after a day exploring the city.

Probably one of the best place if not the best, in Oxford area where you can sit down and have a really nice fish and chips. Ordered the haddock fish and it was prepared on the spot and served nice and hot! Do try the grilled chicken. Really nice also!

I tried it after reading the positive reviews. As a foreigner, fish and chips is not my staple food. However, the food served by Atlantic was fresh and yummy. I ordered Cod and chips. The cod was fresh and delicious. The chips were perfect, not oily and nicely salted with vinegar.

I went back a few days later and ordered the Cod Eggs. It was almost perfect. I enjoyed it.

Is this a place that I would continue going to during my stay in Oxford? Yeah, why not! The food is almost heavenly.

Nice place to eat inside and take away! The staff is friendly and helpful, the food is well prepared, the atmosphere of a local cuisine. We were happy with everything 😊

Very reasonable prices. Huge portions. Even their small chips is very large. And the large haddock is enormous.
I particularly liked their onion rings and scampi.
Very popular place, and with good reason.
I knew it's a takeaway but there are seats inside.
There is a click and collect option as well in which you can order ahead. This is a great idea- if feasible- because the prices in the restaurant are much cheaper than on Deliveroo.
