Overview & Highlights

Histon Village Fryer stands as a beloved fish and chips takeaway nestled at 6 Station Rd, Impington, within the heart of Cambridge's charming village scene. While renowned for traditional British fish and chips, this local gem impressively broadens its menu with a delightful array of Asian-inspired dishes, offering something uniquely satisfying beyond the classic fry-up.

The menu invites you to indulge in succulent offerings such as crispy 8 Chicken Nuggets and hearty 1/4 Chicken, each bite delivering golden, well-seasoned perfection. But what truly sets Histon Village Fryer apart is its tempting selection of duck and extra dishes, rare finds at a standard takeaway. Imagine tender duck enhanced by flavorful accompaniments like Duck With Lemon Sauce or the savory hit of Duck With Ginger & Spring Onion. The stir-fried vegetable options, including Bamboo Shoots & Water Chest Nuts and Chinese Leaves With Garlic, showcase the kitchen’s genuine care for freshness and balance.

Ordering here feels like stepping into a friendly neighborhood hub where efficiency meets warmth. As one satisfied customer, Samuel Chatfield, testifies, the staff manages to stay upbeat and welcoming despite the steady stream of orders ringing in both in person and by phone—an impressive feat that adds a layer of genuine hospitality to every interaction.

That said, there is some feedback to consider: Kengo Houghton notes the policy surrounding minimum card payments may occasionally encourage extras that you didn’t necessarily plan to order. This transparency helps prospective customers plan their visits thoughtfully.

Stepping into Histon Village Fryer is more than just grabbing a takeaway meal—it’s about experiencing a vibrant intersection of comfort food classics and carefully curated Asian flavors delivered with warmth and dependable service. For anyone craving authentic fish and chips complemented by unexpected, crave-worthy sides, this spot promises a unique and satisfying journey for your tastebuds in the cozy setting of Impington’s village life.

Whether you’re a local or just passing through Cambridge, Histon Village Fryer deserves a spot on your culinary map for approachable, flavorful meals served with a smile. Don’t forget to call ahead at +44 1223 232452 to plan your order and experience this quaint yet bustling takeaway for yourself.

Haven't had anything I didn't like from there yet. It's all so good. I'm in love with the onion rings too

Friendly efficient service ,and the chips ain't bad either ...

Twas delicious nice fresh fish and the batter was crispy and yum.

We're new to Histon this year, and already the Histon Fryer has become a regular fixture for both fish and chips on a Friday, or Chinese when cooking seems a bit too much on a weekday. This place does both very, very well. With the fish, it's tasty and the batter is always crispy, the chips also well fried. The Chinese has been equally good, having tried quite a few different dishes now, we've yet to be disappointed. It's often busy, so we've learnt that ringing to order is preferable to just turning up.

Hadn’t been here since the beginning of Covid lockdown but what a pleasant surprise to be served really quickly and have the food ready just as quick. Portions are always good - in fact we never manage to quite finish the portions - and tasty! I love the fact that they take Masks and social distancing seriously and made me feel safe.
