Hands down the best fish and chips ever! Very nicely cooked, juicy fresh and crispy. They use beef dripping! So that even better for the taste. The owners are very lovely and welcoming
Here on holiday and we were recommended to try this fish and chip shop. One word excellent, spotlessly clean shop, gloves worn by staff. Freshly cooked, their homemade tartar sauce and fish cake were superb! Jay and Kim are so friendly and welcoming. We will be back on our next trip! 10 stars from us.
Everything was amazing. Clean shop, polite lady taking orders, very clear and accurate. Fish cooked fresh. Tasted incredible. Such a big fish with light and crispy batter. Chips slightly crisp outside. Curry sauce and tartare sauce perfect.
My mother Intended to order from a different shop but got the phone numbers mixed up and ordered here instead, she ended up meeting the people working and described them as “lovely people who couldn’t do enough for us” and we all got delicious food that was hot, tasty and ready quickly! Absolutely recommend to others after our happy accident.
Easily the best fish and chips in Harrogate by a mile ! Up there with some of the best I’ve ever had, maybe even the best. Hot, fresh and tastes fantastic every time.
