The food, atmosphere and service were amazing!! It's the first time we've been to Oliver's and it won't be our last!! I had the homemade fishcakes, so tasty, the best I've ever had!! The chips were also perfectly golden and not greasy at all!! My partner had the burger and it was super tasty!! We highly recommend coming here & we'll definitely be back!! Thank you to all the lovely staff!! :)

The best fish and chips I've had do far

Close to the M3, this made an excellent stop for dinner during our journey from Somerset to Sussex. Fresh food, served speedily to our table; hot and incredibly tasty! Lots of options and diets catered for. No hesitation to recommend 😋

Is this what’s to be expected when you order a chicken burger from a fish and chip shop? No love or care put into the food. I expected more from an independent restaurant. Pretty sure they wouldn’t get away with serving this in the restaurant.

Indulged in the finest fish and chips here – an absolute delight! Noteworthy for its cleanliness and use of controlled devices for cooking, this place is a must-visit for any seafood enthusiast. Treat your taste buds to an unforgettable experience at this top-notch spot!

Terrible food.., oily and not cooked enough chips falling on parts as too soggy and too oily not cooked well fish.. can not slough it as the oil stay in my throat… it’s end of the night now.,, otherwise could go back and return it!!!! RIP offf… the curry sauce was leaking all over the pot they put it in!!! Not impressed at all… used to be good… obviously the new stuff has no idea 🤷‍♀️ of cooking… but we buy to eat and enjoy the food ,,, not just to pay the money out for bad experiences….inside the fish I found this worm as well…

We knew we wanted fish and chips and searched for the best place in Basingstoke. Oliver's came up tops and it's no surprise why. They've got a recently tarmacked parking area with plenty of spaces (maybe not so much on a Saturday night!) And a clear distinction between the restaurant and takeaway areas. It feels like either the takeaway section has been refurbished recently or it's just "Operating Theatre" clean and very impressive. There were lots of people waiting for their food, but they were clearing out almost as quick as they were coming in. I asked for advice on the portion sizes and they were honest and open and not trying to upsell their products. They said it was an unpredictable wait time, but should be 10 minutes or so. Literally 5 minutes later it was done and ready. It was piping hot and smelled amazing. Even by the time I got it home and plated it up, it was still fresh and couldn't wait to have it. The taste, quality and flavour of both the fish and chips was top class. The fish was crispy and a little oily, but not too fatty or swimming in it. The fish itself was flaky and light, tasty and cooked to perfection. The batter was crisp and delicious. The chips tasted like they'd been triple-cooked and had the right amount of salt and "vinegar" or non-brewed condiment. Would 100% recommend Oliver's for fish and chips any day of the week. 10/10 for sure. Parking: There were plenty of spaces out the front and the back on a recently newly tarmacked parking lot, but I can imagine on a busy Friday or Saturday night that it's going to be tricky to get a space. However, the surrounding roads are free to park and only adds another minute walk to get there.

First time visitor and recommended to us by a regular, who was with us. Excellent service with plates timed to perfection on serving. The table was cleared between courses and fresh cutlery provided. So many places don't get this right but not here. The food portions were well sized, served hot and the offer of as many condiments as we'd like. Very polite and professional staff who made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. No rushing of table clearing and we were even left with all plates until the last person finished. Again, so many don't do this but not here. Looking forward to returning on the next visit back to Basingstoke. Highly recommended and advice is getting there for opening, as we didn't book to dine in and it was quite full by the time we left at 1pm. 🐟🍟🍄 🥗

Lovely fish and chip place. Good value for money. The smaller portion of fish and chips was a good size. The staff were welcoming. Nice desserts too. We enjoyed the brownie with icecream.

Really nice place. My son says it felt a bit old fashioned but I felt quite nostalgic about the sit in fish and chips dining. The place always seems busy and appears to go down great with kids. Staff were relaxed and friendly, oh and great curry sauce. Nice place.
