Absolutely the best fish n chips place in Durham. Great little take out bit and a restaurant overlooking the market square.

Lovely little fish and chips restaurant in Durham. You can either sit in or takeaway. We chose to sit inside and it was a lovely experience and the food was delicious the service was also good too!

Service was great. We made the mistake of ordering the mixed fish dish (battered prawns, calamari and some indeterminate lumps of fish) which was dry and tasteless, obviously straight out of a packet of frozen. The chips, mushy peas and curry sauce were gorgeous though. Should have ordered a proper piece of fish then it would likely have been much better

This is absolute best place to eat. The girl that works at the front is so lovely! She booked us a table for 8pm and was so beyond hospitable. Even though they had run out of most of the fish that late I was still so impressed with the food I received. Great staff and atmosphere. They had a party of two older men (one truly horrid) who were loud, drunk and beyond rude and their staff handled them with class. I highly recommend this place to everyone!

Delicious fish and chips (I recommend the plaice), lovely and friendly staff. We were lucky to get a window seat upstairs to enjoy the view while we ate

When you think fish and chips, whether you know it or not, you're thinking about Bells. The fish is fresh, delicious, and fried to perfection. The chips are hearty and flavourful. The tartare sauce—clearly made in-house—is the best you'll ever have. The restaurant itself is pleasant enough—serviceable, nothing fancy—but this isn't about atmosphere. It's about fish and chips, and they're the best.

Great cod and chips, cooked to perfection and rare to see salad on the standard menu as an option instead of chips, or half n half as my partner chose. Curry sauce and bread and tea all good too.

Don't quite get some of the negative reviews I'm reading about this place. We went twice in three days and it was fab. Believe me, the fish and chips portions are not small and are cooked to perfection at the takeaway side but we also want in the restaurant upstairs where I had homemade pie of the day which on that day was steak and it was gorgeous!! . Forget the bad reviews and go see for yourself.

A must place to visit. We had fish and chips followed by sticky toffee pudding. The portions are large and food is cooked and presented well. The staff are welcoming and give an exceptional service. Will definitely be revisiting when back in Durham
