About Smugglers Fish And Chip Shop

The Smugglers Fish and Chip shop is situated in the most southerly village in England, The Lizard. We aim to produce good, fresh and local food whenever possible in an environmentally efficient and acceptable way.

Smugglers Fish And Chip Shop Description

We source sustainable and regulated fresh fish caught by day boats from local harbours and villages such as Cadgwith and. . . .

Our potatoes are locally grown with seasonal variates. They are peeled, chipped and cooked on the premises for the freshest chips possible. The chicken we use for our "Most Southerly Fried Chicken" is from our local butchers in the village and is reared in Cornwall, prepared fresh and without any added water, the coating is our own and made on site.

When in season, we have specialty burgers made from prime cuts of Ruby Red Beef reared on the Lizard Downs by Rowland. The beef is minced on the premises and cooked to order.

Smugglers has recently gone Carbon Neutral for our hot water and heating by installing a Biomass Boiler. We aim to reduce when possible our food mileage, recycle whenever we can and treat the environment with respect and care.

Fresh Fish that we serve when in season

All fish is usually caught and delivered on the same day you are eating it, this guarantees full flavour and freshness. The fish is battered and fried to order.

Local Cod
Haddock
Plaice
Pollack
Mackeral
Scallops
Monkfish
Skate
Hake
Red Gurnard
Calamares

In order to make to reduce wastage, the prime off-cuts are then turned into Homemade Fishcakes which are, again, battered and fried.

Allergy Advice

All our chips are gluten-free. Unfortunately we cannot garuntee that our chips our Durum free so if you are highly allergic we will not be able to serve you.

This Wednesday we will be closing at 6.30 pm so we can all follow the England Football team on their remarkable journey in the World Cup . Sorry if this causes any inconvenience but everyone at Smugglers wants to live this moment as it happens . Come on England dare to dream.

User

Just our little point of view . Everyone who works at the Smugglers supports Henrys Campsite with their application for the licensing of Little Big Gig . Good luck Ron .

User

What can I say,,, outstanding,, fish and chips to die for ... Especially the monk fish ... See you all next year ...

User

We were on holiday last week and had fish and chips at smugglers twice I had monkfish and it was the best fish I have eaten for years it was that good we decided to have it on are last night would have been rude not to, great service great price great place. Would love to know there batter recipe awesome

User

We just come back after 3 weeks in mullion had fish x chips from here loads of time lovely batter x fish my husband had sausage said was lovely even our dog had a mini cod wooed it down so thank you xxx

User

We found this fish and chip shop last year and there was Monk Fish & chips on the menu, which was amazing. We visited again this year and although Monk Fish was not on the menu, they said they would try for the end of our holiday. They kept their promise as it was on the menu today and just as amazing. Well worth a visit �

We arrived on a rather busy afternoon, most of the freshly caught local fish of the day had already gone but it was clear, had we arrived earlier, that there was quite a selection.

We ordered a lizard burger, cod and a home-made fish cake and a large portion of chips for our family of three.

The lizard burger was luscious! The locally produced meat was juicy and cooked medium - really a very, very good burger. The cod was light and flaky and the batter crisp and delicious. The surprising star of the show from our point of view was the home-made fish cake- it was so flavoursome! It was a very generous size (too big for our daughter, so we all got to try what she left!) coated in a crisp batter and was certainly worth the wait to prepare and cook it. My usually very fussy daughter LOVED this and we spent a while that evening trying to guess what ingredients were used- any chance of the recipe??!!

The chips were fresh and delicious, not overly greasy and caused my daughter to comment that 'they tasted like actual potatoes'.

As many others have said, if it were not a 700mile round trip, we'd be back every week!

Don't be put off by queues or a long wait- it is totally worth it!

Mouth watering now...

User

Visited on Monday. Perfect. Probably the best fish and chips I've had. Really tasty.

User

Visited on Friday while sightseeing at Lizard Point...can honestly say that the fish and chips was the best w Ave ever tasted... So disappointed that we live 200 miles away so it will be awhile before enjoying them again

User

Top class fish & chips. Consistently good year on year! Never had a bad meal. can't recommend enough.

User

This is what I wanted as my birthday treat and I was not disappointed. Service is fast and the fish was wonderful as usual.

User

This is the best chippie in the country by far. Big claim, but as a massive connoisseur of fish and chips, I have tried enough to know what I'm on about! If you are in Lizard and hungry don't hesitate, treat yourself. If an extra special treat is needed - won the lottery or something, then Smugglers version of surf 'n turf is a must.

User

This is our third visit to Cornwall & our third visit in a year to smugglers fish & chip shop, by far the best fish and chip shop we have ever been to! Fantastic service! Fantastic food! It’s worth the 5.5 hour drive just to feel the satisfaction of these fish and chips! Thank you! We will be back again before we head home �

User

User

Mackerel and chips I had was stunning, my husband had cod and chips which he thought was the best he'd ever eaten. Would certainly recommend and we will try again when we are next on holidays �

Lovely chips cooked in rape seed oil too, so suitable for vegetarians! Nice curry sauce too :)

User

Lovely Mini fish and. Chips, couldn’t fault it, service was great too,

User

Love this fish and chip shop. Be there again at the end of the month.

User

In my opinion, the best Cod, chips and curry sauce I have EVER had. There were some locally caught fish options too on both visits. They were just Soooooooooo yummy. I certainly recommend a trip down to The Lizard for your Fish & Chips from Smugglers.

User

How can this superb chippy only get 4.9 stars? This is a travesty. I give it 5.1 but can't seem to be able to input this to the system!

First visit of the season tonight....can't wait.

User

Good quality food, friendly efficient staff, always a pleasure

User

Excellent fish and chips. Very well run and cooked to perfection.

User

Excellent fish & chips (and other things) - they pride themselves on using locally produced meats and potatoes, and on locally caught fish wherever possible.



This is one of our regular stops when we visit The Lizard Peninsula.



One day I might even manage to try their seasonal Lizard Burgers (local beef)

User

Can't wait to go back

Can honestly say that the best fish and chips EVER have been from Smugglers at Lizard.
