Pete`s fish and grill in Tendring

Great little find! Lovely fish and chips, nice friendly staff too!

Very smart and clean the fish is top class great service

Went here for some food, didn't expect a laurel & hardy experience, ordered 2 doner kebabs and 2 saveloys, the doner kebab needed more colour, it was edible just wrong shade of cooked, a member of staff had to run to the co-op to get a lettuce as asda had none and two more customers wanted kebab, one customer complained that his delivery the previous night was abysmal so he came in tonight and ordered the exact same meal and was charged .50p more, being told prices went up and they had to charge more, and to cap it all me saveloys came out of the microwave, the dog was not amused (lol). Honestly they were trying however it was comedy worth the wait.

Best fish and chips ever. Big fish and lots of chips, always get a friendly service

Just wanted to point out that a lot of the negative reviews on here are NOT honest reviews. Most are made by other competing fish and chip shops in the local area trying to tarnish this business' well respected reputation, and the other few are from ex disgruntled employees.Anyone who uses Pete's Fish and Grill knows the excellent quality they deliver, also their prices are some of the fairest in all of Holland-On-Sea.I find it appaling that people can leave a negative review because they attempt to buy food at peak times when things are busy and are made to wait a little longer than expected.

My favourite fiah and chip shop in the Clacton-on-Sea / holland area. Great value for money, freshly cooked food, polite staff and good soft drinks choice.

The worst food I have ever eaten (Tried to)Politely rang today and asked to speak to the owner rather than going in with other customers present, The person I spoke to said "wants to speak to you" I heard a voice saying to him tell them the owners not here .(The phone was put down on me) Having been a regular customer disappointed that last night we ordered our normal Cod and Chips and a battered sausage, after driving a couple of miles home opened the box to discover the items were almost cold and oil was dripping out of the box. After plating up the items and preparing to eat discovered that the chips were soggy and not cooked properly , the batter on the sausage and fish didn't appear to be cooked and when I tasted the fish the white cod was brown and tasted like rancid fat. In all honesty after having an upset stomach for the last 15 hours thought I would ring the boss to see if they had a problem and maybe he hadn't been here last night. (Not for a freebie or refund) but trying to help as we never had this problem before. Make your own conclusion now as to the type of person you are buying from. Sorry you asked for it and lost a local customer.In Reply to the owner then who was Pete that served my wife?

Good food and portion sizes. All ways seems busy when I go here. They are on some of the food apps and you can phone the order in advance which I would recommend if you don't like to wait, it's not that there slow it's that they have a good reputation and are busy. Treat yourself to the home made calamarie it is great.

Great food. Good prices. Friendly staff.

Five star meals when Pete the owner is there. He listens properly when you give your order. Very friendly and has that personal touch as if you are the only customer. We always request our kebab meat to be cooked 'well done' And we get what we want. When Pete isnt there the staff forget and we are left disappointed. Pete was there on Saturday and the kebab was amazing! Meat perfect! Salad very fresh and chips great! We live in London and visit Holland on Sea when we can and always order from Pete's :)
