Whitby fish, worth

14 Pier Rd, Whitby

the queue

Fish, chips and fresh Whitby seafood

Every visitor to Whitby notices the queue on Pier Road: out in all weathers, in every season, waiting for fish and chips. We are known through North Yorkshire and beyond for the quality of our fish, and our reputation rests on nothing fancier than good food and good service, given with a bit of Yorkshire wit.

A pot of tea
and the harbour outside

A harbourside fish and chip restaurant on Pier Road, Whitby. Big plates of battered fish, fresh local seafood and a pot of tea, with the harbour just outside the window.

Fresh off the boats

Recommended, it gets very busy in all seasons

crisp out of the fryer

Bright harbourside dining rooms

There is a full wine menu if you fancy a glass with your fish, but the house habit is a stainless steel pot of tea with milk in a jug, poured while you wait for your plate. If you would rather eat looking at the boats, the takeaway counter next door will sort you out.

Oysters on ice

The batter comes up again and again: light, crisp and never greasy, over fish that flakes clean off the fork. The chips are fresh and fluffy inside, the portions generous and the prices called fair.

The service gets nearly as much praise as the fish: friendly, honest and quick, with a bit of Yorkshire warmth and none of the fuss.

Plenty of visitors say they book a table on every trip to Whitby, some twice in the same week, and that the fresh seafood, the oysters especially, is worth planning a day around.
