"The BEST in Skegness of the fish and chips that I've had whilst I've been here.
Went to try it for the gluten free batter but just came away generally super impressed.
Great sized piece of fish. Actually was hard for them to close the takeaway box.
More importantly the fish was fully skinned, which made it a delight to eat.
Chips were well cooked, and some very crispy ones.
Mushy peas came as part of the overall deal making it even better value and they were also good. Not too runny. Could have been a tiny bit thicker for my taste.
Lovely staff who were so friendly when I went in one evening as they were closing and I'm so glad I made the effort to come back.
Don't fall for the glitz of other places and a large queue. It may not be on the main road but you'll be going in the right direction."

"Such a cute little fish and chips!
Weather was beautiful so we sat outside on the benches and the atmosphere was brilliant.
Cater to gluten free people, so cheesy chips is what I had! My partner had the typical fish and chips and said his was lovely also.
Will definitely come again!"

"I went this Wednesday to the Atlantic, and it was lovely to be in place that I felt normal being gluten free. The GF Fishermans Basket, wow the amount of food. And the quality, tasted like a homemade fishcake, big prawn's in the scampi, lovely light fish. GF vinegar on tables, and all the staff were all lovely.
“Nobody puts Baby in the corner!” As the film states, unless its a Gluten Free corner, which I loved haha (love to see more restaurants doing that) Certainly will recommend & be back for your great food 😍🤩😋"
