Most Disliked
Some visitors mention long wait times during peak lunch hours, which might deter those in a rush for a quick bite. A few customers observed that the dining area could get crowded, impacting the overall ambiance. A handful of feedback indicates that certain dishes, such as the veggie options, could use more flavor or variety. Despite the attention to cleanliness, there’s the occasional report of minor oversight on table cleanliness during busy hours. Patience gets rewarded here, but for those craving immediate service, this might seem like a drawback.

Great fish shop. Have been using the Blue Anchor a few years now and I believe the cod and chips are getting better. Last visit last week and cod and chips were lovely. Best in Bexhill.
