Barker's Fish & Chips in Richmondshire

How basic hygiene standards have dropped in this industry. We called into this restaurant on a visit to Richmond. The food was good as always. However, we were half way through our food when we noticed the guy who I presume was the chef/fryer working downstairs. You could hear him upstairs in the restaurant coughing his very chesty guts up constantly and very loudly. He was also throat hacking in-between the coughing fits. He clearly was not using a handkerchief or coughing into his arm. It was really disgusting to listen to. Another older couple in the restaurant made a comment to the woman who waited on us and she just shrugged and said 'oh everyone has a bad cough recently' She did say something to the guy down stairs but he either didnt care or he didnt understand his disgusting unhygienic problem because he carried on regardless. Why do ppl in the food industry think this vile behavior is acceptable. Use a hanky of stay at home if you are not well. Has he not heard the saying 'Coughs and sneezers carry diseases' . Basic hygiene is really lacking with this man!

Best chippy I've visited in ages. Everything cooked fresh and was lovely. Crispy batter and really nice chips. Huge portion of haddock too. Reasonably priced and friendly staff.

Best Fish and Chips I’ve ever had! I have recently got back from Richmond and the fish and chips were so good I came on here to give a review and I can’t believe the reviews, honestly me and my mum got fish chips and gravy to share, sat outside and ate it and we both were mind blown! The chips were crunchy the fish tasted incredible and the gravy…. Well I could have bathed in it. So often these days when I have fish and chips I’m disappointed, often soggy chips, greasy batter and not much flavour but here it was honestly so good we had it again for lunch the next day. I can rate this chippy enough, and I’ve tried loads from the top rated ones in Whitby, Padsto and all over the Cornish coast and this one was by far, like by loads far the very best have ever tasted. Thanks for being so tasty!!!

Our regular visit when we visit Richmond been half a dozen times. The fish and chips here are absolutely fabulous, Really good value and service with a smile. Will be sure to visit again next time we are here.

Called for lunch on our regular visit to Richmond. We have tried most of the other cafe and pubs in the town and this was by far the best place to eat. It was fantastic. Fish and chips (beautifully cooked) tea and a pudding all for just over £12 each, an absolute bargain. We will definitely be back.

We’d been to the theatre and so it was quite late 21.10 and it was shutting at 21.30… I understand they’ve probably had a busy day and ready to go home but I’m still a paying customer until you close. The guy behind the counter was abrupt and rude. The chips were warm and soggy the fish was tiny. I won’t be going again. There’s no need to be rude when your taking people money.

Have been many times for a Cod meal,this time served a pink fleshed fish which they claimed was Haddock.I think as it had no Haddock taste it was actually BASA fish.The rest of the meal and service was of the usual standard.

The very best of fish n chips, had the lunch time deal with piping hot good sized portions and the fresh fish is the best we have eaten in a long while-superb.

This place is very busy which is usually a good sign and it has a huge take away trade (at the time of visit). However the Fish and Chips were very tasty, the chips particularly so and the Fish is skinless. Must be one of the best Chippers in North Yorkshire and as an added bonus the counter staff were friendly and pleasant. Will be sure to re-visit

Lovely fish and fish and chips. This place was recommended by another family member for lovely flaky fish and chunky chips. The portions were really big, large for me and standard for my wife. Accompanied by tea, coffee and bread and butter. Plus a dessert of your choice. I would recommend anyone to eat here, especially if you have a big appetite.

We had the choice of two chippies in the Richmond Market Square - the Castle, which does haddock (but takeaway only), or Barker's which only does cod (but has an upstairs sit-down restaurant). I'm very much a haddock man myself, but - as I had my dearly beloved with me - Barker's it was. And what a happy choice that proved to be. The upstairs restaurant is cosy and pleasant, with nice views over the square; we were warned by the friendly waitress that the takeaway downstairs was very busy, so we might have to wait a little while, but I took that as a good sign (although hardly surprising as it was 6pm on a sunny Saturday.) In the event we barely had time to start on the bread and butter and large pot of proper tea that came with our meal before my wife's 'small' cod and chips - and my gratifyingly large one - appeared in front of us. And it was easily the best cod and chips I had had in a very, very long time: every mouthful of both the fish and the chips was savoured with delight (and also, in my wife's case, the mushy peas; can't stand 'em myself). No doubt in my mind that that fish had to have been very fresh indeed, the chips had obviously not seen the inside of a plastic bag, and both must have been cooked in fresh beef dripping - absolutely the only way that they could have tasted that good. To top it all off, my wife's lemon & lime cheese cake dessert (included in the price) was deemed excellent and 'obviously home-made', while my ice cream was perfectly fine too. And all the above for a grand total of £22.90. The only way that meal could possibly have been improved would have been a tea cosy to keep that lovely pot of tea hot a bit longer; and the only reason that this reviewer gave four stars rather than five was that the toilets were locked out of use - so we had to sneak into a pub across the road . . .

I visit this restaurant regularly, it is in the lovely quiet town of Richmond too. I wish they'd open up a branch in Northallerton. The food is lovely and the staff are so friendly there.

Visited many years ago so called today while in the area. Used upstairs restaurant and the food was excellent and extremely good value (fish, chips,curry sauce,bread and a dessert £10). Chose standard fish which I would have described as large. Batter was out of this world! I

Chippy tea after Richmond cinema. Freshly cooked fish & haggis, good portion size, great value for money. Friendly staff. We will return

Tasted like the fish and chips had been heated up from the night before. My husband ordered sausage, egg and chips and was told that there was no eggs, bearing in mind that the market stalls in the market square sell fresh eggs. Would not go back again.

Always order fish and chips here if visiting Richmond. Freshly cooked to order, good size portions and priced very reasonable. Would recommend.

This is a good, solid place that has an old-fashioned, no nonsense vibe and delivers the best chips I've tasted in years. They were light and fluffy inside with just the right crispness on the outside, proper chips! The fish was tasty and not too greasy, with crisp, yummy batter cooked to perfection. Staff were friendly and accommodating for my son's special needs and we sat in to eat our delicious food. Only criticism is that the plastic forks were flimsy and could be wooden for environmental reasons, and the floor around the table was a little dirty. No complaints about the cleanliness of the food surfaces and kitchen at all, though, and overall, the experience was overwhelmingly positive. Definitely coming back with my dad soon for his favourite dish!

My visit here was excellent I ate in the upstairs restaurant on a Friday teatime. My Fish chips and curry sauce were excellent crispy battered fresh fish, and chunky crisp chips. served almost instantly. at £9.95 it was amazing value for money and served by a friendly pleasant and helpful staff member. This fish and chip restaurant shows some of my local ones in Newcastle upon Tyne how it should be done at a better price.

Straightforward decent value for money fish and chip shop in the market place. We had two small fish and chips. Well cooked, fresh and well served. Felt like a fair price for a sensible portion size.

Lovely traditional food served in true Yorkshire style! Very reasonable prices and offers and chips and proper gravy, delicious!

We bought fish and chips from Barkers whilst visiting Richmond. Very nice they were too. Small dining area if you prefer to eat in.

We called in the signage mentions a restaurant so in we went and asked if we could eat in. No mention of would we like to go upstairs or another offer of seating we placed our order to the unsmiling lady who went on to say some of the order would be extra,well actually fair enough but I do expect to pay for what I order. I was expecting a plate as there was a stack a foot high behind her, but our fish and chips was shovelled into a cardboard box and the peas into a carton then help yourself to plastic knives and forks that are still stuck together so everyone has to fiddle with them. So we took out food to the nearby table, best described as one of the picnic variety as the chairs don't pull out. Then the lady and the fryer went out side the window for a smoke. End of the first half. Perhaps I didn't ask enough questions. So be prepared to make yourself clear because information is not offered Second half. The food was actually really good fresh and hot and we really enjoyed it, not as good as our local chippy but good and although the portions are not huge perfectly adequate and good value I thought. Would we go back , no, plenty of good pubs in Richmond.

The exterior and the stairs leading upstairs to the restaurant are a bit tired and tatty but the fish & chips was fresh and hot and delicious and the young girl serving was exceptionally pleasant and helpful and smiley!

Wish we had taken ours back but not what we do. Check the picture of dense, very soggy, tasteless batter. We scraped the bits of fish out. Chips were not firm/fresh. Scabby bits. Not had anything like these from any F&C shop! Please go elsewhere...

I am pretty sure the deep fat fryer is actually a vat of hydrochloric acid. The manager refills it with his forehead sweat and possibly leave-in conditioner from the previous night. Proper rude staff need to be put down.

Had chippy tea before going to cinema in Richmond. Great choice, all freshly cooked,good sized portions, great value for money. Will definitely stop in past again the next time we're in Richmond. Keep up the great work, quality and service. Ps Belfast was a great...

Ordered 3 portions that were gluten free. Sat downstairs. Simple and tasty for a good price. The batter was really good and overall it wasn’t too heavy. Will be back again when next in town

I have visited this restaurant on many occasions as it caters for coeliac ‘s like my self but on visiting today I would say to anyone avoid at all costs. Myself and my mother were masked on entry and the sign in the entry way...

I ordered chips. The female member of staff subsequently plonked a tray of chips down on the counter most of which had 'black ends'. I had barely paid for them before she just continued to talk to the other members of staff as though I...

I can categorically say these were the worst fish and chips I have ever had! The chips were either rock hard scraps of overdone rubbish or they were hollow. The fish full of bones.. safer bet was the sausage! If I could have left zero...

We had had a long day out sightseeing and wanted something quick and tasty. Everyone we tried on the phone was either fully booked or the free slots were late. We decided to try the chip shop not realising there was a dining room upstairs....

Decent fish and chips,a good choice of food and good value,strict Covid measures I place for your safety.

I am so glad I didn't read the reviews before coming in the shop, we chose it due to the enticing smell of fish and chips when we came out if the castle grounds. We were served courteously and quickly adhering to all covid restrictions. The fish, chips, peas and gravy were all of a good quality. We took them away, due to not being able to sit in, and ate them just outside. Would return.

DO NO EAT HERE!!! This is the worst place I have ever eaten from. Myself and my husband waited for a takeaway of kebab and chips for 20mins or even more and when I say kebab meat, I mean the brown pieces of something they took out of the prepackaged frozen bag and heated up in the microwave (that’s right, I kid you not, right there in front of my eyes) the owner and his wife (I assume) were very rude to myself, my husband and other customers in the shop. The woman even bad mouthed a customer that had just left the shop. Absolutely disgusting and will never go there again. I am surprised this shop is even allowed to be open. The owners really need to read the reviews they are getting because of this was my business, I was be embarrassed and ashamed.

Staff were rude and un helpful to people in the store with allergy’s. Staff has never heard of a scallop, imagine owning a fish and chip shop and never have heard of one of those!! Castle fishery’s much better!

Bought 3 lots of fish and chips for family to take away. Delicious and plentiful. The staff were a little abrupt but probably a bit stressed due to Coronavirus. Would definitely recommend.

Visited 27-7-2020. Tara had obviously been run off her feet with Covid restrictions but made us feel SO welcome. The food was excellent and at a very reasonable price. I wasnt prepared to share my Cheesecake (homemade by Tara) with my wife so she gave her a Slither of both flavours. Great food, brilliant price and even better service

Lovely food, extremely rude and unacceptable staff. Attitudes towards customers changed between if they knew them or not some wear masks some dont have to I seen a ladies getting shouted at to put a mask on yet there was no sign were she was standing then a gent walked in through the exit only door no dramas no mask and got served, WRONG! So safety only depends on who you know apparently

I understand that shop staff are really up against it especially in todays situation but although our Cod and Chips were really quite good, the lady serving put an item in the box that was not asked for......and it all seemed very rushed too.Very greasy fish and chips but quite enjoyable.Cost.....£14.20 with a battered sausage.Parking.....in the market place spaces are plentiful

I actually didn't buy any food, i left because of the very rude and abrupt woman behind the counter.l asked for a large cod, before I even managed to say Lar, i was told no large only standard.No “sorry we only have... “i asked if all the cod was “tail pieces” or could I get a “ middle piece”.The reply was more or less “ no , you get what you are given“That is poor customer service.So i went to Castle Fisheries, just opposite, and their staff were polite and helpful.

Collected fish & Chips today good Friday let’s just say 1st & last time They were disgusting now in the dustbin

called in by chance and ordered fish chips and mushy peas absolutely excellent. Very friendly and attentive lady member of staff

The staff were friendly and good with customers. The place was clean and the staff made sure they cleaned the pots after people had finished and clean the tables as well. Meal we got was tasty and the food was cooked properly.

We visited Richmond and once more went to Barkers. We have been many times before as a take away. We ate in the restaurant today. The fish was more than delicious - well cooked and fresh. The chips were very good too. The member of staff (Sharon) was excellent. I would recommend eating here and would certainly go back. The price of the meal was very reasonable.

I write this with a heavy heart, as I have been buying food from this chippy for years. But on this occasion I was really annoyed at the woman whom was frying the Fish and chips as she was rather loud and obviously giving instruction to there new guy who was front of house so to speak. She was telling him the do's & dont's of the way they did things. And she went on to start making statements about southerner's being ignorant and horrible people!! Yes this was whilst my wife and myself had just bought some food and where sitting inside to eat them. I was fuming because my wife hail's from Enfield in London!!! So you can imagine how she felt!!! Well I was spitting nails, because both the owner and the new employee were both having their ten penneth about the south and the people who happen to be born and bred there, and I quote"Yeah the south is ok but the people are ignorant and not very nice!!!" Shame on you Barker's of Richmond!! So as you can imagine that I will never ever be frequenting this establishment ever again!!!! Not professional and certainly not endearing to be slagged off whilst actually eating their food that we have just paid for!!!!! I honestly do not understand people who mouth off total crapp like this when they knew full well that there were customers in their establishment. I hope that you are "embarrassed" by your little outburst!!!

We visit Richmond often but this is the first time we have visited this restaurant and so pleased we did. The room upstairs is lovely and clean with good seating arrangements. We ordered the small fish n chips that came with bread and butter and a pot of tea, all for £7.95..................The fish n chips were lovely and just enough for a lunchtime. The young woman who served us was polite and friendly. Dogs are not allowed so not a dog hair in sight .

This was our second visit to this restaurant and we won't be going back! our first visit prompted our second visit, as we had enjoyed our fish and chips so much, we ordered cod and chips twice, while the fish was cooking the two portion of chips were wrapped and ready to go at least five minutes before the fish was cooked! the fish was taken out the fryer into the draining cabinet, was given NO time to drain before it was wrapped ready to go, the paper was so full of grease, it was dripping out, the batter you could not eat, and the chips were Luke warm and anaemic, a total and utter waste of money.

We ate a fish supper in the restaurant, fish and chips fresh, crispy batter and mushy peas with bread and butter, large pot of tea and ice cream to follow all in with the price. Excellent value and service by Tara- can definitely recommend- to tell the truth we were too full for the ice cream!

Never tasted such disgusting food ever it went straight in the bin !!! Won’t be going back in my lifetime . The chips looked like they were yesterday’s and tasted like it, but they were raw, the sausage tasted of fish. When I phoned to tell them this, the woman who I spoke to was very rude.

The fish was very dry and the chips were cold and stale. They got the order wrong and didn’t realise this till we got home. The staff were very rude when we rang up to let them know.

Went in for chops tonight, in each portion got about 10 stale chips. It's a shame because the first time we came fish and chips were lovely. Disappointed,will be losing customers rapidly at this rate

This fish n chips is absolutely delicious, everything we had was top notch- the chips are great, the cod was large and very full of fish, lovely batter and we had lovely service at in the restaurant. Hopefully we can visit again soon- highly recommend.

A good old fashioned Fish and Chip Restaurant, friendly staff good food and value for your money. Great place to go to.

Fish and chips were excellent. Really good service. Would recommend this fish shop and would go again.

I came here with my family and a excellent meal. Really good value for money. We chose from the light lunch menu and was pleasantly surprised when my meal came with 2 jumbo battered sausages and a big portion of chips. Even the child’s meal came with a jumbo sausage and included a drink and ice cream. The food was fantastic and would definitely recommend a visit

Tasty chips and lightly battered moist fish. Excellent service & friendly staff.......what more could you ask for?

It is a while since we visited Richmond and were happy to see that our favourite fish and chip restaurant was still going. IT was mid afternoon on a Saturday when we accended the stairs to find there was only one table occupied. Another couple came in after us which made it better. My husband ordered the usual fish chips peas with tea bread and butter with added ice cream for £8.95 all good and reasonable. I chose a cheese burger with chips with coleslaw and salad at a reasonable price of £6.95 and a tea for me. Service was quite good and the girl was quite pleasant. However the burger was cold I preserved with it but left half of it. When the girl came for the plates I did mention it but apart from an apology nothing was done and as I said to her it was not her fault as she did not cook it. Do not think we will be rushing back!!

Great quality and fast service on a Wednesday lunchtime to eat in Richmond Castle. Lucky there were picnic tables

Visited the sit down restaurant here for some dinner, food was spot on couldn’t fault it but the service really lets it down, the waitress wasn’t polite which made us feel uncomfortable.

Just about made it before evening closing and everything was spot on. The food was gorgeous and generous portions too. We were also able to have a beer and a glass of wine with our meal which was nice. Our Waitress Tara, was very polite, chatty and hospitable despite being the only member of staff in the restaurant and had clearly had a very busy day!. Would definitely come here again

Visited for lunch. Service was slow and when the order came it was incorrect also item missing. Manager blamed new staff when a simple apology would have been ok.

Its the worst chip shop I've been into, chips are rubbish, mainly over fried scraps or soggy fat undercooked things.The sausage have never seen meat or been near it judging by the taste. Curry is powdery lumpy and cheap packet stuff. Peas are runny liquid and don't contain many peas. The fish I has was grey and tasteless, and from what the fryer said it comes in frozen, thats why it looks that way. Its not the only chippy, as the closest one is just the opposite of this as far as quality goes.

Never had any problems when visiting both the Sit In, and takeaway. Love the food. I always go with the thought of trying something new...but always end up with a Fish Pattie - and I believe this is the reason I now have gone from a medium to large when buying clothes.

We have visited this fish and chip shop previously and had some nice fish and chips, we have not been for some time and upon this visit it seems have gone down hill.

Not impressed at all, food was put together like no one cared and the fish cakes were burnt and all the batter had fallen off, a huge disappointment safe to say I will not be going back the next time I am in the area.

We visit Richmond regularly from Teesside as we love the place and for years have gone to this place for the high quality and value of its food and service. However after visiting today I doubt very much that we will return, my wife and I decided to head to Richmond for lunch where we looked forward to our favourite scampi and chips dish that has always been an extremely generous portion and served with a very tasty fresh salad which actually made the dish. Today however we got there and place was empty no staff in sight, after 5 minutes my wife found someone to ask if they were open, the response - yes that's why we have a bell as all staff are downstairs, first negative - no staff in a restaurant???. We then made our order of 3 kids meals and 2 scampi for my wife and I along with 2 Teas. Firstly the drinks, one small teapot between 2 of us when we asked if that was for both of us we were told yes but don't worry we can give you a top up of hot water, great free water ! Then the food came, 6 pieces of scampi, handful of chips and a token side salad (swimming in water had to use tissue to drain plate) we asked what had happened to what we normally get and where advised that the owners had changed and if we now wanted a decent salad with the dish it would be an extra £3. So in conclusion, prices up, portions reduced, service poor and quality out of the window. Actually talking of windows we spent half our meal with the window cleaner staring at us as he cleaned the windows, whilst not directly the restaurants fault it may be beneficial for them to ask that cleaning does not take place at 12:15 lunch time on a weekend. Final issue, the toilets are now locked and you have to ask for a key to go to the toilet which is both inconvenient and seems a bit much in a community town like Richmond. Really disappointed to write this review as always loved the place and the scampi and salad dish was the best we have had anywhere, not anymore. If things continue like this I think they will lose a lot of customers.

Smashing fish and chips, couldn't fault waitress service and the warm mince pie and cream was lovely.

Visited the upstairs restaurant on a Friday evening, delicious fish and chips with mushy peas for myself, while my wife enjoyed her scampi and chips also with mushy peas. Very friendly waiting staff, will be back for certain on our next visit to Richmond.

Let's start with the positive - I have no complaints about the chips peas and gravy. Standard British chippy fayre fresh hot and tasty and would buy again.

After a long drive we didn't want to cook so decided on fish and chips. We paid for a takeaway but we're able to eat inside. The shop was clean and inviting and the staff pleasant and helpful. We had cod which was white and flakey with nice crisp batter. The peas and chips were also good. Would recommend this place.

Been here many times, not normally any major issues. However called in yesterday for a takeaway for me and my partner. We asked for a cod, spam fritter, chips to share, curry sauce and of course scraps. Bit of a wait after paying but don't mind that if food isn't fresh. First issue was i went over to counter just as the girl was finishing wrapping my order. Had to ask her to put on salt and vineger. She then finished wrapping and handed me my order. I had to ask her for the curry sauce and for scraps as she forgot.

We stopped by for lunch and the haddock fish and chips was really good. The chips we're also delicious . Well worth a stop if in Richmond.

Saw the shop when stopped over a few days ago and staying nearby. Returned to have haddock and chips. Cooked fresh. Chips excellent and fish thick and tasty. We ate in the shop. Nothing fancy but friendly service. We will return when next in the area heading north of the border.

After lots of very nice visits to this place we will never return. The small fish and chips has halved in size. We ordered 4 lots and a kids meal. On arrival one fish was clearly a lot smaller than the other 3. When we commented very discreetly we were made to feel foolish and embarrassed by the server as she was so loud the whole place could hear her. Awful customer service.

Famished after having a long day walking in the hills around Richmond, and not agreeing about where to go, we went to Barker`s. What a great move, because both the fish and the chips were cooked perfectly and all three of us enjoyed our meals. Without fear of exaggeration,and speaking for myself, they were the best fish and chips I`ve EVER eaten. Highly recommended.

Great fish and chips. Fish was cooked white we waited, standard size portion just right. Non-greasy delicious chips. Tasty chip shop curry sauce, sat on a bench outside in the early evening. Great end to a busy day.

Very good fish and chips. Can ask for fish lightly battered. Not greasy. Regular size is a big piece of fish and plenty for a lunch meal. It doesn’t get a 5 because fish and chips just seem like a meal one should eat daily. But for the food you get is quite good.

Recently visited this establishment after a recommendation from a colleague about the friendly staff especially a lady named Claire And lovely village . Ordered my food which took its time to made , got the order wrong to start and when addressed the manager had a cheek to say it was my mistake . A mean how hard can it be to get an order correct when not busy , won’t visit again due to rude and passive aggressive approach by the manager named Stacey . Safe to say won’t return and the food when eventually came wasn’t uoto much

First time here service good and plenty of chips mostly all eaten as lots to eat.sat inside.staff good

We thought it looked nice, clean, fresh

This isn’t the first time we’ve enjoyed fish and chips here. It was excellently cooked with a light, healthy batter unlike the frequent offerings from other places. The cod was delicious - light and perfectly cooked.

Stopped here on a whim. Glad we did. Excellent service from Claire. I ordered cod and chips and my husband fish bites and chips. Both our meals were hearty portions. The batter and quality of fish superb and great chips! Thanks.

Possibly the worst chips I have ever tasted. This is not just my opinion, but everyone in our group. Dreadful.

Very nice food. Had the pensioners special which wa beautifully cooked and had the choice of cod or haddock. Quiet due to time of year but will be buzzing once the yourists come in

It is a while since i ate in Barker's, but again we were not disappointed. The food was hot and delicious. The service was quick and very friendly. The views are lovely over the cobbled street, the old houses and the castle. The ambiance is so peaceful and relaxing. Would definitely recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of eating in the cosy downstairs section of Barker’s Fish & Chips on a cold night in February. The staff, especially Claire & Ryan, were warm, welcoming, efficient and also very generous. I was in the middle of doing the coast to coast walk for Southmead Hospital charity and they both kindly sponsored me on the spot. The food was delicious and also very reasonably priced. Highly recommended.

A visit to England isn't complete without a stop at a real Fish & Chips shop. Barker's is a lovely place and the staff very friendly. Tasty food!

Shocking! Awful food! I will say the staff were welcoming and friendly however one man was an arrogant fool possibly...

We went to Barkers restaurant as a family on the day of the Christmas market and have never experienced anything...

My daughter and I thought to try the other Richmond Fisheries situated outside the main square and opposite a small...

When ever we visit Richmond our first of call is for Fish n Chips at Barkers, generally they are always...

The title nearly tells it all, the upstairs cafe serves well-cooked food in a pleasant atmosphere with excellent friendly service. And the price isn't bad either...what more can you want?

Crap arrogant lack of service. This arrogant chip shop owner has now lost my custom at this shop and their other Richmond Fisheries shop which also refused round pound coins. Is the foolish owner incapable of working out that refusal to accept legal tender means loss of customers and loss of profit?
