Most Liked
The fish and chips are the standout stars at Mega Sea, receiving consistent praise for their fresh and crispy batter. Customers love the attention to detail in sourcing seasonal potatoes, which translates into perfectly cooked chips every time. Many reviews highlight the curry sauce, labeling it the best in town. The inclusion of Chinese food, particularly the sweet and sour chicken balls, adds an unexpected and delightful twist to the menu, appealing to those seeking variety. Dine-in or takeaway, the atmosphere remains casual and friendly, enhancing the dining experience.

Most Disliked
Some diners express frustration over the limited seating that often leads to queues, especially during peak hours. While the wait might be worth it for the food, larger groups can find it challenging to secure adequate seating or a space to dine comfortably. A few reviews mention that the dining area can get crowded, which may detract from the overall experience for guests looking for a peaceful meal. Additionally, as a chippy that also serves Chinese dishes, some traditionalists may prefer a more focused menu without the cross-genre offerings. While the variety is appreciated, it can lead to concerns about the freshness of every dish served.

Brilliant little chippy. Often have to queue outside due to limited space, but not a big deal. Also sell a range of Chinese food BUT it's not a Chinese that sells F&C its a chippy that will also sell you sweet and sour chicken balls! So proper fish and chips like you'd expect.

Local chip shop, offering British (should that be Jewish as they were the ones who introduced the dish) fast food cuisine, but some Chinese dishes too. Nicely cooked chips, generous portions, which taste great with copious amounts of salt and vinegar, but better with curry sauce! The fish is beautifully cooked, and generous (two fillets are placed together) and the batter is light and crispy. It's the same batter they use for sweet and sour chicken balls, which are the best I've eaten, although the sauce is more sweet than sour. They also produce chicken curry, another lovely dish, for a low price but not sacrificing flavour or quality. The shop is clean, tidy and Covid safe, the gentlemen behind the counter understand English very well, and the food is quickly presented. I've come from a seaside town, and the prices here are much cheaper, which helps to make it, in my humble opinion, the best chippy in Taunton.
