Great fish, reasonable prices, great service, I loved everything about Fish Central. It’s only 5/6 because it’s a bit noisy. But I’ll definitely come again

The service and the food in this establishment were unsurpassed. At one point a gentleman, who I can only assume was the head chef, came out to greet all the tables to ask how everything was and whether we enjoyed our meal, with a warm and genuine concern. Class. It was also clear to see that there were many regulars who were familiar with the owners, giving it a family vibe. I would highly recommend this place, it’s no surprise it’s still open after 50 years. Class.

Havent been back for ages but its pretty much the same - good service, fresh food from the kitchen/takeaway next door, nice room with an upstairs for private groups, you get a little amuse bouche, plenty of specials - if you are going at a busy time then best to book. On Sat evening there had lots of big groups who were going to arrive - I was pre theatre so was ok.

First time I have been back here in 10 years, whilst the decor may have changed the quality of the food hasn't. The fish was fresh and the side dishes lived up to the high standards. I shall be back and hope it won't be another 10 years.

Great fish, varied menu with a range from the familiar (cod, meats, pasta), the less common (rock, hake) through to the exotic (octopus); friendly and attentive service, excellent wine, unpretentious surroundings - all you could wish for!

Three of us had a meal with wine. The house wine was Purtuguese - smooth and fruity and sold at a decent price. The cod and rock salmon were superb, but the chips and the vegetables were decidedly average.

Fish Central, we had an awesome experience and feel part of their family circle. The food was scrumptious and service and quality excellent. Keep up the great work! I'd recommend to any fish lovers, although there are some meat dishes. Fish is their speciality. Definitely a visit, if you in that neck of the woods!

Wonderful to return to Fish Central. Had wondered with anticipation what the specials would be and delighted to enjoy the lobster and prawn cocktail and the filleted monkfish with sweet potato and prawn bisque. As usual a delightful cocktail was made and the Duboeuf house white perfectly complemented the meal. Attentive service as ever.

The restaurant is quite nice and the fish really good. We got complimentary salmon fishcakes with starters. I had grilled squid as starter and a grilled plaice which was very tender and tasty. With a bottle of Pinot grigio it was £30 each.
