About Us

Established in 2022, New Forest’s Finest has quickly become the “plaice” to be for the best fish and chips in the area. Known as the flagship location for the Lee family group, this restaurant brings a dream to life for Shane, who has aspired to open his own restaurant since leaving London in 1988.

Managed and co-owned by Dean Cummings, who joined the Lee family in 2018, New Forest’s Finest represents a journey from fryer to part-owner. Dean honed his skills at J-Henry’s in Hedge End and Sonny’s in Fair Oak, working his way up from fryer to shop manager, now taking the helm at this beautiful New Forest eatery.

With both a dine-in restaurant and a separate takeaway entrance, New Forest’s Finest is perfect for those who want to enjoy their fish and chips on the go at one of the nearby parks.

Next time you’re visiting the New Forest, make New Forest’s Finest a must-visit for a true taste of local flavour!

Our Reviews

Probably the best fish and chips in a long time. Clean, nice staff, good position in Lyndhurst. We had Cod and Haddock with chips and curry sauce. Would definitely recommend and we will be back in here next time we’re down this way.

Tim Noble

Best fish and chips ever. The batter is bye far the best I have ever had. Staff very friendly and accommodating. I live in London and would often drive down just to visit this fish and chip shop. Do yourself a favour and try it.

Tracey Penfold

The best fish I've ever had I asked if it had skin on and they said they would remove it for me, the pea fritter was lovely and the chips although not a big portion was actually just the right amount. Service was excellent very attentive staff.
