Rothley Fisheries in Leicester

"Visited Rothley Fisheries for the first time yesterday evening (15th Jan) and ate in coming from Derby. I have very severe coeliac disease, and this place truly lives up to its promise of serving genuine gluten‑free food. I’ve been to plenty of places that claim to be gluten free, only to end up with stomach pains within hours — but not at Rothley Fisheries. The portions were generous, the fish and chips were tasty and high quality, and the staff and service were on another level. I highly recommend this place, especially for anyone with coeliac disease. I’ll definitely be a regular from now on. Looking forward to trying the gyros next, if it’s gluten free. 2nd Visit on 17th Jan, evening, takeaway this time, and the food and customer service was outstanding."

"Despite the fact all of their batter is gluten and dairy free, the quality of it is outstanding. This is possibly the crispiest battered sausage I have ever had. And I was in and out of the place in no time, although it is Sunday so perhaps a bit quieter than usual. I didn't try their mushy peas though, and they have strong competition in that regard nearby in Quorn, so we'll see next time. Oh yeah, decent chips too. Not all stuck together and soggy... Low bar but a challenge for many."

"Quote possibly the nicest fish and chips I've ever eaten. Having driven all the way from Coventry on a pregnancy craving after watching TikTok! The staff were absolutely fantastic and even helped bring it outside for me. The chips are very well cooked , a little crunch and fluffy on the inside, not too greasy and the batter for the fish is simply beautiful! Curry sauce is also spot on! Thanks guys!"

"Visited this evening for my nans 90th birthday meal. Staff were really lovely and welcoming from the start. Service was really good and quick with the orders. The portion sizes were generous and the food was so good. Really hot and fresh! Not sure what some of the other reviews have been about, especially from Simon as the staff brought cake and sung happy birthday with us. It was a really lovely touch. All in a all, was a really enjoyable evening and the staff/owner were fantastic. Thank you for a great time"

"I havent been here but regularly watch along with hundreds of others, the lives on Tiktok. The food and fish and chips do look amazing and staff look friendly and helpful. Always seems busy. You can always tell a good chippy by the regulars and ques... I will call in here one day for fish, chips and peas ...."

"Superb! We ate in the restaurant - it was our first time trying Rothley Fisheries and we were not disappointed. Really fresh, great tasting menu. We had Haddock and Lemon sole and they were both beautiful! The waiter, Michael, was extremely friendly, helpful and welcoming - we were even offered a top up of chips! A brilliant fish and chip shop and we will certainly be back, 100% recommend. Thank you! :)"

"As a family we have dined in several times over the last 18 months. We tend to visit late afternoon. On arrival we always receive a genuine, warm friendly welcome by the waitresses. Fast service, meals always arrive freshly cooked and taste delicious. We have tried fish, pies, gyros and various sides and the quality never fails to deliver. They also cater for large groups. However, advisable to book if you are large group. You can take your own booze, they provide you with wine glasses and glasses out the freezer for your beers. The Management occasionally walk through the restaurant and are really friendly. All in all this chippy restaurant is superb and ticks all our boxes. Hence, why we always return. Never tried take away meals so can't comment on that side of the business."

"Really cute restaurant decorations, and the foo was absolutely delicious. I'm gluten free and it was so lovely to be able to basically eat anything off the menu (with a few exceptions) and on any day of the week. Prices were reasonable and staff were lovely."
